MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 89
The price of fish is low, and it is a delicacy if it is cooked well, but the ingredients need to be complicated, so the price is not cheap.
The loose fish sold in the city is five to ten yuan a catty, and if you buy it at the purchase price, you can only get about five yuan.
However, it is much more cost-effective than taking it all the way to the city to sell it, taking a car to pay for it, selling it at a low price if the fish is dead and not fresh, and renting a stall.
The common people will calculate this account, who doesn't want to have an old boss, and if they have rice, grains, fruits and vegetables, they can just send them to the shop directly, and they can make more money than selling them.
It's a pity that everything in the city pays attention to some connection. If it's not relative, people will definitely not see you. Only if they need something to find you, they will do business with you without you taking the initiative to find someone.
Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He spent three to five days running almost all the restaurants and restaurants in the city. Those who know each other are easy to talk about, and those who don’t know show courtesy in the name of their shop, and the sky pays off. , can be regarded as winning over ten restaurants and restaurants.
In the past few days, people have been coming to the village to see the fish caught alive and in the fish pond, so he first informed the village head of the news.
When the villagers heard that a boss from the city was coming to the village, they went to the group and waited early in the morning before the door of Zhang's house opened. There was a lot of people's voices, and those who hadn't participated in planting mulberry and silkworms before went to watch the excitement and were laughed at.
"At the beginning, I said that I shouldn't go to do some tricks with these business owners and landlords. This morning, people were panicked. At first, everyone who raised fish and silkworms was not so comfortable, guarding a few acres of land to be poor. They were poorer, but they didn’t starve to death after all.”
"I really want to get rich so much that I can't sleep. I don't want to think about it if I make something annoying. Why do you say so?"
Seeing that the fish are growing big and the mulberry trees are flourishing, there are not many tourists in the village, and I feel flustered without making much money. This morning, I finally have some signs of making money, but my waist does not hurt when I hear people standing and talking , Immediately, I was not very angry: "When collecting taxes, your family often runs around to borrow money. It's better not to be like this next year."
"Tch, I don't do this if I pay taxes and have spare money."
"The more you quit, the more hopeless you will be."
"I'm afraid that the more you mess around, the less money you will have."
The villagers had an unpleasant quarrel, and those who came to see the excitement were kicked out by everyone.
Zhang Fangyuan naturally heard the noise outside, and the family still had breakfast in the house before letting Wu Zi come out to open the door.
As soon as the gate of the courtyard was opened, the villagers rushed in: "Zhang Fangyuan, when will the boss in this city arrive?"
"The fish are all picked up and put away, don't coax us."
"How much can you sell it for? If it's a few pennies, it's boring."
Rui Li in the room covered his ears and yelled, "It's so noisy, so noisy!"
Xu He picked up the child: "Then go back to the room with Brother Dabao and play for a while."
"Si uncle sent a small wooden horse, isn't Er Bao the favorite to ride?"
"Good."
Xu He sent the two children into the house, and asked Xiao'e and Wenzi, who had not gone to the school today, to watch the children for a while before going out to deal with the villagers.
"People will definitely come. Don't worry later, it's just that the bosses who come from the city should be more polite."
"That's for sure."
Zhang Fangyuan said again: "The village chief has explained clearly to everyone, everyone knows it."
The villagers were silent, with a somewhat reluctant expression on their faces, which was similar to the expression when they were urged to pay taxes by the court.
Zhang Fangyuan stood with his hips akimbo under the eaves, and said unhurriedly: "I have been running a lot with Brother He these days, everyone has to eat, if someone has another way, don't go through my way at all, but since you want Don't talk about it when you pass my way."
What he said was very straightforward, but the villagers had been trained by the village head in advance, so they naturally knew what it meant.
The owner and merchants in this city were invited by Zhang Fangyuan, relying on his contacts, to give gifts to them. It is impossible to do it for nothing, and he will have to pay 10% of the money to the guide when the time comes.
The mayor said so.
The villagers were cursing and swearing, they were so rich and wanted to part with other people's money. Everyone always hated the rich, but enough quick talk, they still knew what they had in mind.
I don't have the ability to find my boss, so I can only rely on others.
"As long as the fish can be sold today, everything else is fine."
Xu He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words. He was afraid that the villagers would make trouble again. The villagers didn't want to suffer, but their family didn't want to be taken advantage of and let others suffer by themselves.
At the end of the hour, there was the sound of cart wheels on the village road, and the dust was flying. The villagers were so happy that they hurriedly threw away their cattail fans and went out from Zhang's house to meet people on the village road.
As a result, these carriages did not stop on the road, and they arrived at the Zhang family's mansion all the way.
The villagers chased the carriage back again.
Five merchants came to the city at the same time, and the villagers stared blankly at the yard. The richest people in the village are Zhang Fangyuan's family and the landlord's family, but the two families are also very approachable in dressing up, except that they have never worn patched clothes, and most of the materials are ordinary.
And the merchants in the city are eye-opening, wearing beaded gauze hats, silk brocade clothes, and soft gold belts around their waists, they are very wealthy.
Bringing three or two strong fellows with them, let alone the villagers wanting to go forward to talk, after a few more glances, they were stared back fiercely by the covetous fellows.
The villagers shrank their necks, only now did they realize how easy Zhang Fangyuan was to talk.
Seeing Zhang Fangyuan chatting with these merchants with ease, saying a lot of courteous words, and inviting people in for tea, the merchants were anxious to see the fresh fish, and agreed to meet again in the city.
The villagers were very excited, and they were afraid that talking for a long time would not be enough.
"When Tangjiaba Hangua Garden was opened, I also came here to play around here. After reading the local scriptures, I didn't come to Jijiu Village. I didn't know that the village is also unique."
"This green mulberry pond is really interesting, and it's a pleasure to come fishing."
"You are welcome to visit us often."
A few merchants never left their cars. They toured the village and went to see Zhang Fangyuan's poultry shed.
Chickens lay eggs and chickens, and there were hundreds of chickens and ducks in the past two years.
It was almost noon, and several merchants took their chickens, ducks and fish back. Zhang Fangyuan sent some Tujia dishes to a few people, and politely invited them to eat in the tea shed. Just do goodbye.
Several truckloads of live fish were pulled out of the village, and adults and children in the village gathered around the roadside to watch the fun, watching the folks selling fish and counting their money almost grinning to the ears.
"It turned out to be Wu Wen, Boss Zhang, or you can talk about business."
The villagers who sold the fish became more at ease after taking the money. After changing their previous brutal appearance, they immediately changed their attitude towards Zhang Fangyuan, and spoke politely, which was very flattering.
"In the future, we will have to rely on Boss Zhang."
After all, all of them took the initiative to raise 10% of the money to Zhang Fangyuan.
A family can earn dozens of Wen, which is nothing more than a small profit for the Zhang family's business, but Zhang Fangyuan has been running the business for these years, so he naturally knows that fly legs are also meat, and it will be a big deal if they pile up.
"It's easy to say, as long as everyone is diligent and diligent, there will be money to be made in the future."
The villagers were happy, unlike the Zhang family who have seen the world, dozens of taels of money flowed from their hands, and the next time they got a few hundred taels, their hands were already soft, and they just kept saying: "Hey , Yes, I listen to you."
When the fish was sold out, Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He clapped their hands. They went to do something, and the couple were ready to go back.
"Boss Zhang."
The couple listened to the cautious and probing voice, and saw that there were still a few villagers who hadn't left when they turned their heads: "Are you still going back?"
"The folks who sold the fish today are back. Seeing that they are making money by opening fish ponds, when will we who only grow mulberry trees and raise silkworms be able to make money?"
Several villagers followed Zhang Fangyuan's buttocks, looking sad. Now that some folks are making money, they dare not offend Zhang Fangyuan by shouting, fearing that they will be beaten.
Although I don't dare to be like before, it's always okay to ask.
Zhang Fangyuan said: "I will definitely pay attention to this matter, not only for everyone, but also for myself."
"The silkworms in my family can spin silk. It would be great if I could find a merchant quickly. Boss Zhang will be able to take 20% of the silk."
"The silk is collected first, and the more the quantity is, the better it is to find merchants. It has to be a long-term plan."
Although they couldn't get a definite answer, the villagers still felt a little relieved. Donating money is not very pleasant for anyone, but from this point of view, it is more appropriate to see that the interests are tied together.
From then on, guys from the city would come to the village every now and then to buy fish and poultry, and the villagers secretly raised more chickens and ducks. Everyone was very polite to Zhang's family and even sent some things over from time to time.
Zhang Fangyuan's status in the village has been raised a lot because of this.
"A lot of ducks."
"Brother, don't go, bite someone."
I have been free for a while, and merchants in the city often bring a few chickens and ducks when they come to buy fish.
Xu He thought that since he opened up the market, he simply took good care of the poultry, so that he could sell both eggs and poultry, which was also an additional income.
A shed was built in the courtyard of the old house. There are no people here anymore. Almost the house has become a world for chickens and ducks. Unlike before, there were people who lived there and cleaned them all the time. stool.
Xu He was determined to clean up, and carried a shovel to collect the excrement and ferment it to fertilize the mulberry tree. He also brought two children there.
It was the first time for the little guy to see his own chickens and ducks since he was able to walk. The big house was clean and they were never raised, even the stables were built outside.
For a while, I was very happy to see the flocks of poultry, and I chased them to touch them, but I was surrounded by a group of ducks and quacked.
Rui Li immediately faltered, not daring to chase after him, and called Rui Jin to come to him.
"Ducks are not fierce, they are just hungry and want to eat."
Rui Li hugged Xu He's leg, not daring to move: "But there are a lot of poops."
Xu He had no choice but to pick up the child: "Forget it, let two people take care of it."
If the village is willing to spend some money to hire one or two people to do things, it is very easy to hire. You may not find a strong man in twenty, but there are many women and brothers.
What's more, the trivial work of incubating eggs, picking eggs, counting chickens and ducks has to be done by women and brothers.
Before Xu He spread the news, her second sister came to the door first. She didn't let his mother Liu Xianglan bring the message, but came by herself.
"If you want to do work..." Xu He glanced at Xu Shaochun, who was not looking very good, and wanted to say that the poultry shed needs someone to manage it, but when he came to his mouth, he still said: "The tea shed guest house can add another person to help, In addition, it is managed by the poultry dignitaries at the old house."
If it was Xu He in the past, he would not have given Xu Shaochun the opportunity to come to the house to do things, but his second sister has indeed improved in the past two years, and she can also take care of the crops and farms, so she doesn't have to worry about any jobs.
After all, they are still a family, so there is no need to do everything wrong.
"Second sister, let's see for myself where to go."
"So... I'll stay at this end of the village."
Xu He was surprised when he heard the words, he didn't have to think that Xu Shaochun was going to the other side of the guest house, even though his salary was about the same, but it was tidy and more comfortable than cooking chickens and ducks.
Xu Shaochun seemed to see his doubts, and explained to himself: "The child is still young, even though he is the only child in the family, he still needs his mother to take care of him. I can go back to see the child after I am done here. , it’s also close.”
Xu He's eyebrows twitched slightly, but she never thought that her second sister would be more thoughtful than before after becoming a mother.
"Second Sister made a good decision. The salary is six hundred Wen a month." After talking about the work to be done and the salary, Xu He still talked a lot: "Would the Fei family want you to come out?"
Xu Shaochun sighed slightly.
"Why not, I just gave birth to a son, and my husband took a concubine. He is still of humble origin. Although my mother-in-law is protecting Fei Lian, she is happy with her grandson. She feels a little guilty towards me. Depend on."
Xu He is not a person who likes to talk about other people's family affairs, so he didn't ask Xu Shaochun and Fei Lian in detail how they were, but when she heard her call Fei Lian's name, she knew that the relationship between the two was not as good as before.
He felt emotional, but he didn't know how to comfort him, so he said: "If you have any difficulties, tell your mother, she will definitely find a way for the second sister."
If Liu Xianglan has something to say, she will definitely talk to the Zhang family, and he will know everything by then, and he can help if he can.
Although being favored by parents in the past was spoiled, Xu Shaochun is not a fool and knows what Xu He means.
She knew about Xu Hejue's previous affairs at home, or his own temperament, which made him unable to say anything direct and warm, but it was such a twisted word that made her feel hot, very mixed List.
"That's how I am. Fortunately, I have a son, so let's just live with it." Xu Shaochun paused: "I hope you will take care of him and don't follow my old path. It's getting late, and I should I'm back."
Xu He got up to send people off. Two short winter melons were playing in the yard, watching Xu Shaochun go, and got off the wooden horse: "Goodbye, aunt."
Xu Shaochun's eyes slightly curved when he heard the soft voice: "Okay."
One day her children will grow up and become very cute, she feels relieved, if she doesn't have children, she doesn't know if she can survive these things again.
"Sister is back?"
Xu Shaochun had just returned to Fei's house, and the one who came in was yelling at her in the yard.
"Have you washed the dishes for dinner?"
"My husband said that I have a body, so I don't have to do heavy work."
Xu Shaochun gave him a cold look: "It's too heavy to wash and pick a dish, so it's better not to eat."
"Why did my sister say such heavy words? When I first came to this house, I just acted according to my husband's words."
Xu Shaochun looked at the man acting like a hook, and felt disgusted in his heart, so Fei Lian would eat this.
Thinking back to when she was pregnant and took care of the family, Fei Lian praised her for being virtuous and virtuous in housekeeping. She thought that her husband really liked virtuous and filial people, but she didn't expect it to be so.
With this treatment, how could she not feel chilled, since this brother entered the door, her husband would go to his house every now and then, how much affection between the two of them can still exist.
Xu Shaochun was very angry for a while, but after a long time, he gradually calmed down. When she got married back then she had to do everything, she was always looked down upon by others and her mother-in-law made things difficult for her, but now if she gets angry, the loss outweighs the gain. The child is still so young, and she still has to rely on her as a mother to support her.
She thought about it, instead of being spoiled in the house, it would be better to earn some money and take care of her son in the future.
"You have to lead the chicken feathers and the arrows will follow you."
Xu Shaochun didn't even bother to argue with that person after leaving a word, and went straight into the house to nurse the child.
The little brother also felt bored, so he returned to the chair and ruthlessly tore a few vegetable leaves into the basin.
"By the way, didn't you act like a good boy and go to the school to deliver meals, and I'll be busy in the future, so I'll go instead."
The little brother was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Brother Feng always listens to my sister's arrangements."
At night, Xu Shaochun told his family that he was going to help, and Fei Lian immediately put down his chopsticks: "It's not that the family can't afford food, so why go out and help."
"There are only a few people in the family, and some people think it's too much work to pick vegetables. If you don't go out and find something to do, how can you live?"
Fei Lian was very unhappy when he heard such words, but in the end it was his own fault, so his tone was not so strong: "Brother Feng, I told you to do less work because I have a body. See how you speak like that." , I have never seen you so mean before."
"As the sage book says, women need to be magnanimous. You make outsiders see it as a joke."
Xu Shaochun said bluntly: "Is there any joke in our family that hasn't been seen?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting worse, Fei's mother interrupted: "Eat, eat. Shaochun can go if he wants to. Brother Feng, you will cook the meals at home in the future. Shaochun used to do these things when she was pregnant. Besides, the city Those concubines in the village are not allowed to eat at the table, they can only stand by and wait, our rural households don't have these rules, but you can't be lazy!"
Fei's mother spoke, but Fei Lian didn't refute, so the family had nothing to say.
But after the meal, Fei Lian secretly went to Brother Feng's room by saying that the child was crying at night and disturbed his sleep, and that he would not be energetic in class tomorrow.
Xu Shaochun gritted his teeth and bolted the bedroom door.
After the dog days, the weather has been cooler for a few days, but the autumn tiger is still there, so it has not completely cooled down.
Song Yong is coming to pick up the goods in autumn, and Zhang Fangyuan is running to the city these days, one is to go to the supervisor to urge the hall to prepare the tooth incense sticks, and the other is to contact merchants in the city to sell fish and poultry.
He didn't think it was a good idea to run like this. In the past few days, he had an idea to set up another shop in the city, and then sell chicken, duck eggs, poultry and fresh fish.
How much a shop sells is a small matter, the most important thing is to have a front, so that merchants in the city can directly place their orders on the shop, without having to go to Linglong shop. It doesn't look good to have two completely different businesses mixed together.
And with the appearance, residents in the city can go to the shop to order for chickens, ducks, fish, etc., so that the market can be wider.
But he hasn't made a decision yet, and he plans to discuss it with Xu He first.
Knowing that he was tired these days, Xu He said that he would cook pork knuckles for him to eat at night.
The elbows were ready and he found that there was no sauce at home. He thought that since he had already promised, he would not regret it, so he said to Wenzi: "Go to the inn to get some sauce and go home, and let the second aunt come back earlier Have a meal."
"okay."
Wenzi came out from under the stove, took off the apron around his waist, and went out.
It's not too far to get to the tea shed, and you can get there quickly if you walk fast.
Wenzi spends most of his time doing housework in the Zhang family's house, unlike Wuzi who works in the shop here, the number of times he comes to the tea shed can be counted on the fingers of one's fingers.
Come over and see that there are quite a few people staying in the shop at this end, and they are still busy. He went into the tea shed to look for Zhang Shiyue: "Second aunt, there is no sauce at home. Husband asked me to bring some home."
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Shiyue didn't answer, but a middle-aged husband stuck his head out first, as if he heard the voice of an acquaintance, he went straight to look at the person who spoke.
Wen Zi was startled when he saw Fu Lang, and immediately said in disbelief: "Little Daddy!"
Zhang Shiyue came out, looked at the teary-eyed little brother, and said in surprise, "Wen Zi, is this your little dad?"
Wenzi wiped his eyes and nodded: "Yeah."
Zhang Shiyue took a look at the face of the middle-aged husband and Wen Zi. It was not easy for the person who sold it to see his relatives again. Let's have a good talk."
Wenzi thanked Zhang Shiyue, and hurriedly dragged his little dad to the corner. He was about to pour some water for his little dad, when a pot of tea came on the table first.
"Drink."
It was mentioned by Wu Zi, and Wen Zi glanced at him gratefully.
"Are you working around here now? I'll treat you as being sold out of town, and I'll never see you again in this life."
The middle-aged husband touched Wenzi's head, feeling bitter in his heart.
"Jijiu Village just ahead is a good owner. The tea sheds and guest houses here are all owned by the owner."
"I said how can a villager afford to buy a servant, so he has a lot of family background." The middle-aged husband looked around when he heard this.
"Daddy, why are you here?"
"I came here to buy some lamp oil and candles. I heard that the fish here is also cheap, so I want to buy one to make soup. Your sister-in-law is pregnant."
Wenzi's face darkened slightly: "Really, the life of that family is much better."
"Oh, what kind of family are you patronizing? Now that you have gone to a good family, tell me quickly, what kind of family is it, and what kind of property does it have?"
Wenzi talked in detail, and the two talked for a long time. Although Zhang Shiyue never came to disturb him, Wenzi also had the vigilance of being a slave and servant, and knew that he could not delay for a long time. Soy sauce goes back.
I couldn't help but wipe my eyes along the way.
