The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 367 Preserved Egg Workshop ([-])
All the ducks in Su Yunduo's village had come to this village a few days ago, and there were almost a thousand ducks on the water surface of this village, and it was impossible to raise more.

Lu Jinkang looked at the quacking ducks on the water, and squeezed the space between his eyebrows: "It would be great if we also had a lake as big as the eldest princess!"

Su Yunduo glanced at Lu Jinkang with some amusement, who would have thought that the well-known noble and dandy son of the Zhen Guogong's mansion in the capital is now thinking about how to raise more ducks.

Su Yunduo looked at Zhuangzi in the distance, and immediately had an idea in his mind, stretched out his hand and pointed over there and asked, "Is there a stream over there?"

Lu Jinkang is quite familiar with this area. Although he didn't know why Su Yunduo suddenly asked about the stream, he wouldn't be going to play in the water like Su Zechen, but he nodded and said: "There is indeed a stream, and the stream is not too wide. , the water flow is not too big, but it also guarantees the irrigation of the nearby Zhuangzi. By the way, your Zhuangzi is just upstream of this stream."

With Lu Jinkang's affirmative answer, Su Yunduo raised his legs and walked towards the direction of the stream.

At the moment, Zisu is not with Su Yunduo. Today, Zisu's task is to guide Chen Linhai and Zhang Jianqiang to prepare the plaster for Su Yunduo, and make an agreement with Zisu early on. Let Zisu's family go to get together with the family.

Naturally, the one who will follow Su Yunduo is her other maid, Bai Zhi. Seeing Su Yunduo leaving the shade of the tree to go to the stream, Bai Zhi hurriedly opened the parasol and followed to shade Su Yunduo. Clouds bask in the sun.

Lu Jinkang couldn't help being surprised for a while, could it be that Su Yunduo really wanted to go to the stream to play in the water?
Although shocked and puzzled in his heart, Lu Jinkang took Jiu'er to follow and went to the stream together.

Su Yunduo stood by the stream and looked around.

This stream can't be compared with big rivers, but it's as wide as five or six feet wide. Linxi River.

But in Su Yunduo's eyes, there are advantages everywhere.

The water is not deep and it is easy for people who raise ducks to find duck eggs. Ducks are not as good at finding their own nests as hens, and the probability of ducks laying eggs anywhere is quite high.

The slow water flow is convenient for ducks to move in the water, and it is also easy for ducks to forage.

Weeds are overgrown by the stream, there must be countless small fish, water, shrimp and small creatures hiding in it...

Such creeks happen to be natural breeding grounds for ducks.

Su Yunduo looked along the stream again, and the more he looked, the more he felt that the idea of ​​using this stream to raise ducks in his mind was very feasible, and a smile broke out on his face involuntarily.

Su Yunduo can be regarded as a relatively cautious person, and he will not act rashly. He needs to ask the owner of the nearby fields, as well as why the large open space by the stream is empty and whether there is an owner. If there is an owner, he can No transfer of ownership, etc., before the ideas in mind can be implemented.

"Cousin means you want to use that vacant lot to raise ducks?" Su Yunduo's behavior had already made Lu Jinkang guess, and when she asked about the affiliation of the vacant lot, Lu Jinkang confirmed his guess. .

Su Yunduo nodded: "I'm afraid it's not easy to find a water surface as big as the eldest princess's courtyard, but this stream can be fully utilized.

You can see that the weeds on the edge of this creek are much more luxuriant than those on the edge of the Linxi River. Small fish, water, and shrimp are most likely to grow in the weeds that grow by the water, and this small fish, water, and shrimp are exactly the same. Duck's favorite food.

Besides, the water flow in this stream is slow and not deep, even if the ducks lay eggs and can be found in the water at a glance, do you think it is more suitable for raising ducks than the water surface in our village? "

Following Su Yunduo's description, Lu Jinkang's eyes became brighter and brighter. Although he is not proficient in raising ducks, he has learned a little bit in the past six months. As Su Yunduo said, ducks are very fond of small fish, shrimp and small creatures that grow in the water. Therefore, I am very happy to play in the water.

If this creek is used well, even if it is just the section of water facing the Zhuangzi of Zhen Guogong Mansion, it will be possible to raise a thousand or eight hundred more ducks. Five or six hundred more eggs.

As for the vacant land that Su Yunduo was referring to, some people wanted to buy it before, and even the government of Zhen Guo also had such an idea. Because one side is close to the stream, the other side is close to the mountain, and the sun is not enough and the humidity is too high, it is naturally disliked by people. Therefore, this land has been vacant for many years and has grown grass there.

In fact, even the grass doesn't grow well enough.

This piece of land is notoriously neglected in the western suburbs, and the government has naturally recorded it.

Such a piece of land is at least nearly forty acres, and it really doesn't cost a few taels of silver to buy it.

The more Lu Jinkang thought about it, the more excited he became, and he turned around and immediately assigned Jiu'er a task: "Go back to the city quickly and buy this land for me."

Su Yunduo saw that Lu Jinkang was so smart and efficient, the smile on his face was even brighter.

It just so happened that Ning Zhongping was looking for it, Su Yunduo couldn't help pointing at the creek and the open space excitedly, and told Ning Zhongping the harvest of the trip by the creek: "... In this way, at least [-] more ducks can be raised .”

After a pause, Su Yunduo's originally high mood suddenly seemed a little downcast: "It's just that in this way, we need to buy land to buy ducks, and arrange people to raise ducks, and also have to build a few rows of duck houses and duck raisers on that piece of land." The dormitory is another expenditure. Now that the money has not been earned, the expenditure is one after another!"

Ning Zhongping reached out his hand to touch Su Yunduo's beautiful hair, but suddenly thought that Su Yunduo was getting older, and this is the most well-mannered capital, so he finally withdrew his hand, but said with a smile: "Where is there really such a thing as a white wolf with empty gloves?" Good thing? You have to pay first before you can find a way to earn it back!"

Although Ning Zhongping does not have any shares in Songhuadan Workshop, he has been running back and forth in Zhuangzi in the city with all his heart these days, not only his face has turned darker, but he has also lost a lot of weight. Su Yunduo is grateful but can't say anything Distressed.

Although Ning Zhongping is only Su Yunduo's uncle, he is more like Su Yunduo's father than Su Chengzhi, and whenever there is anything, Su Yunduo thinks of Ning Zhongping first.

Hearing Ning Zhongping's words at this moment, Su Yunduo couldn't help tilting his head and smiling at Ning Zhongping. An emotion called attachment slowly spread in the smile, which made Lu Jinkang, who was standing by the side telling Jiu'er, a little crazy.

On this day, Su Yunduo stayed in the Zhuangzi of Zhen Guogong's mansion until Shen Zhengshi, and then returned to his Zhuangzi with Zisu, Bai Zhi and Ning Zhongping.

"Hurry up and fetch the prepared mung bean soup for Sister Duo." The old lady Lu was already looking forward to it, seeing Su Yunduo and his party come back, she hastily ordered the maid beside her to bring it to Su Yunduo and others. The mung bean soup served in the well cools off the heat for several people.

Su Yunduo drank the mung bean and lily soup that quenched his thirst and relieved the heat, and he felt that it was so sweet to the depths of his heart.

Su Yunduo put down the bowl in his hand contentedly, and talked to Mrs. Lu about the big and small things that happened that day.

Although Mrs. Lu didn't understand business matters, she still listened with great interest.

When she learned that Su Yunduo and Lu Jinkang were going to raise thousands more ducks in that village, the old lady Lu was so surprised that she could hardly speak.

Worried that the stall was too big and Su Yunduo had no funds to use for turnover, the old lady Lu simply asked Madam Wu to fetch a small box made of sandalwood and hand it to Su Yunduo.

Su Yunduo opened it and saw that there was a stack of banknotes inside, and quickly returned the box to the old lady Lu: "Grandmother, don't worry, even if I don't have funds, it won't affect the business. No matter how much the workshop invests, it will be settled by Cousin Lu. Only responsible for technical guidance."

After speaking, he stuck out his tongue in embarrassment. If this kind of action was placed on other noble girls, Mrs. Lu might not feel stable and elegant enough, but Su Yunduo did it at this moment, but it made Mrs. Lu feel playful. And cute.

Although Mrs. Lu really wanted to help Su Yunduo, Su Yunduo resolutely declined Mrs. Lu's funding, and Mrs. Lu had no choice but to ask Nanny Wu to put the box away again.

The money belongs to Mrs. Lu's private house, and it is the dowry money she prepared for Su Yunduo. Naturally, it will be given to Su Yunduo sooner or later, but Su Yunduo is not clear about it now.
