Chapter 38

The idea was given to her father by Shen Qingning. This man must have understood after he entered the kitchen with his experience in making tofu for so many years, and beating him now would not help.

Why don't you hand it over to the county government, maybe you can make him pay some money, or just let him spend the money as a purchase.

After thinking about it, Shen Dahe and Li Shi could only do so, but no matter what they were still holding their breath, let his family survive this drought year!

Zhu Ji on the side also had a troubled face at this time, Zhu Ji originally thought that he was going to be beaten severely.Unexpectedly, the Shen family didn't do anything, and only let him choose whether to report to the official or privately!

He was sent to the official on the grounds that he stole the Shen family's secret recipe. This thing depends on how the magistrate judges. He runs a tofu shop in a county town, so he went to Dongshui Village to beg for water?

He had no relatives or friends in Dongshui Village, so if he really had to ask in detail, he would definitely be unable to evade it.The county magistrate of Jiping County is fair and honest, if he really wants to care about this matter, I'm afraid it can't be good.

It's more straightforward if it's private, the Shen family wants 20 taels of prescriptions to sell to him.

Boss Zhu Ji had a smile on his face, "Brother Shen, can we discuss the 20 taels again? You see, our family is just a tofu seller. Where did we get so much money!"

Shen Qingning was afraid that his father's heart would soften, "Father, do you think that this Zhuji tofu has been passed down for several generations, and this tofu is not unique to his family, and they have supported several generations by relying on this craft. This bean curd stick is only for this family, it will be passed on from generation to generation, and the descendants of the Shen family will all benefit from it!"

Shen Dahe was deeply convinced, "In this way, 20 taels is not enough!"

Boss Zhu Ji still struggled, Shen Qingning persuaded him, "Boss Zhu, speaking of our secret recipe, we don't have to sell you 20 taels. That's the only price."

The Jiang family, who had been silent all this time, also said, "Don't talk about Jiping County, as far as the entire provincial capital is concerned, only my Shen family can do it. Now you have learned it secretly. I think 20 taels is still too little."

Mrs. Li was still sad that someone peeped at her method of making bean curd sticks, and when she heard her mother-in-law say this, she followed suit, "I don't think 50 taels is too little."

Shen Qingning suppressed a smile, further talking about 500 taels would not be enough.

Over there, Jiang raised the handkerchief in his hand and took another picture, "I remembered that this happened to Qianji Braised Pork in the county town more than 20 years ago. I don't know if Boss Zhu knows what happened to it?"

Zhu Ji broke out in a cold sweat instantly, why didn't he know that the Qianji Braised Pork was not far from his home, and the person who stole the secret recipe was directly beaten to death on the spot.

"20 taels is 20 taels, I bought it!"

Then everything went smoothly, the woman who came to lie on the wall yesterday brought 20 taels of silver to buy the secret recipe.The Shen family was not the one who didn't count their words, so they let the two into the kitchen for a formal visit and told them how it was done.

After everyone left, Jiang saw his second daughter-in-law was frowning.

"Don't make a sad face, even if you don't sell this method, you will be tried and understood in some days."

"Mother, I don't understand this truth. I can be satisfied after thinking about it. In just these few days, I have made a lot of money."

Jiang just laughed, "But is it enough for a house?"

Mrs. Li was a little embarrassed, "That's enough, but isn't it too ostentatious to build a house this year? Those who don't know think how much money our family has earned."

"If you want me to say, it's the right time to start. Everyone has no work to do. It's cheaper to hire a master. The children are too miserable to live, so they can get up early.

Your dad said it was going to rain anyway.The drought is just this crop, and when the field gets busy, you won't be able to take care of it. "

Shen Qingning felt that what Jiang said was reasonable, "Mother, after others have learned it, it doesn't mean that our bean curd sticks can't be sold. Then all the stores sell our bean curd sticks, and the business of bean curd sticks will not stop. , when the field can be planted, and the two sides are busy, you and dad will really be too busy to build a house."

The matter of building a house was thus put on the agenda.

Uncle Li's hands and feet were quick, and he delivered the donkey cart in just two days.

Soon Shen Dahe bought the donkey back. It was a gray adult donkey with a strong figure and shiny hooves. It was really not easy to buy such a good animal at this time.

"Thanks to Erzhu, I asked him to keep an eye on it for me yesterday. I didn't expect to find a suitable donkey so soon. This donkey is young and strong, and it looks like it was raised with all my heart."

"How much silver?"

"Eight taels."

Baliang is not expensive, and the donkey can be cheaper but it can't do heavy work.

With a donkey and a cart, the family's work is much easier.

Shen Dahe took his son and daughter under the guidance of old man Shen, and quickly learned to drive a car. Among them, Shen Qingning learned the best, which made her feel embarrassed in front of Shen Guan.

Shen Guan was not convinced, "The main reason is this horse, it doesn't listen to us very much, otherwise I can drive it better than you!"

Shen Qingning patted him on the shoulder and laughed at him, "Oh, if you should admit defeat, just admit defeat. Is it so difficult to admit defeat?"

Shen Guancong took the rein from her hand, "If I really want to lose, I will admit it, but this horse is just like your brother and brother, it will be better than driving a donkey cart next time."

"You can't compare to me in a donkey cart."

"Could it be that the donkey is also your brother?"

"Shen Guan!"

Shen Dahe laughed loudly, "Hahaha, from now on I'll get up early and pull a car back. It's enough for Qingning to send the car to the county seat. Don't be too tired."

"Father, don't meddle in pulling the water, I can do it. Just keep busy with making bean curd sticks and building houses at home."

With a donkey at home, Qingxiu was responsible for grinding beans. Now Shen Dahe only does the most tiring process of pulp washing when making bean curd sticks.

The three of them had a clear division of labor, and the speed was much faster than before, and Shen Dahe was able to spare time to build the house.

He took Shen Guan to find Lizheng. Lizheng's youngest son, Wen Hao, and Shen Guan were good friends. The two studied together in a private school in the county seat, and had a good relationship with each other every day.

Shen Dahe explained his purpose of coming, he wanted to build a house on the open land at the west end of the village.

Li Zheng was a little surprised, "Dahe, everyone said that your family made money from making bean curd sticks, but I didn't expect to make money like this! How long have you been separated, and you are going to start a house?"

"Brother Zhao, don't you know if others don't know? This family earns hard money from early morning to late night. It's really aggrieved by the fact that there are too many children in the family. This is how we put together things to make the children live spaciously. some."

Li Zheng thought to himself, what can I know?I only know that the chimney of your house flutters for a day, and everyone says that what flutters in your house is not smoke, but a sign of wealth!

However, Shen Dahe is usually very popular, and his family's Shen Guan is also good at reading, maybe there will be a fortune in the future.

"What's the relationship between the two of us? Of course you can if you want that piece of land. Then tomorrow I will accompany you to the county government to pay the money and sign the deed."

"Third brother has a lot of face in the county government, so thank you third brother."

"We don't need to be polite."
