Chapter 615 616 Summer Comes Early
Everything is running smoothly.

What Zhao Yuanle decided was the rule of paying first and then shipping.

One by one, the bank notes traveled thousands of miles and came into her hands.

She is also very happy to pack these goods one by one and send them out.

There are many gifts among them.

This year's rose essential oil hydrosol was sent in by her, and there were also some piggy dolls made of pig hair scraps in various colors.

For fun, Zhao Yuanle also made some peach blossom essential oil, pear blossom essential oil, etc., the quantity was very small, and they were specially given to the first lady in each city who met her.

These packages are also uniformly engraved with a special shape of the word Zhao.

After the female workers in the textile workshop finished their work, Zhao Yuanle gave them a holiday.

And the woolen pigs that lost their hair began to give birth again.

So, she, no vacation.

When she was paying attention to the next generation of wool pigs, she would go to the mountains when she was free, hunting in the mountains while looking for fresh archomyces suis.

She hasn't forgotten what she said last year.

This time, she must be looking for some good things to give to Colin, and when the time comes, she will make a pig hair fir and send them together to express her sincere gratitude.

At the end of March and the beginning of April, Zhao Yuanle did not forget to settle accounts when he was looking for Zhu Gongjun.

Pig hair from more than fifty woolen pigs.

Each head produces nearly forty catties of hair.

Two thousand catties of pig hair, after processing, select those pig hairs of qualified quality, and the resulting weight is about fifteen hundred catties.

These pig hairs are spun into threads or velvet, and finally many scarves and hats are made out of them.

As for profit, it is much more.

Ten catties of pig hair can be used to make ten scarves.

It takes more to make gloves, but more to make a cloak.

And a colorful scarf costs at least twenty silver dollars, not to mention such a large item as a cloak.

After the final account was settled, Zhao Yuanle's mouth was about to dislocate from laughter.

"It's still a woman's money to earn."

Before selling raw materials, the money earned was less than one-tenth of this.

After deducting all kinds of costs and inputs, Zhao Yuanle couldn't hold back his laughter when he saw the five-figure figure in the final income.

"Three months, three months, earning ten thousand, ten thousand..."

It's a pity that this is not earned every quarter, and the next earning will have to wait until the second half of the year.

In other words, you can earn [-] or more in six months.

A month is about [-], and [-] pigs can earn her [-] silver dollars a month.

Looking at the numbers on the draft paper, Zhao Yuanle laughed again, and thanked Colin once again in his heart.

Colin is such a nice guy.

However, she now has to control the quality of her woolen pigs.

This wave was born, and this year will not give birth.

To improve quality, take the fine line.

If there were so many hairs, they wouldn't be worth much.

Moreover, the situation will be different this year, and you can't raise too many.

Since then, she has been controlling the wool pigs' diet, exercising them, and letting them bask in the sun when it is available.

Dry for 180 days to get the healthiest pig hair.

And this summer's sunshine is really very cooperative, and it has become more and more.

But gradually, it became more and more unhealthy.

In May, it was supposed to be a rainy season, but there was only a light rain, and there was no rain after that.

The weather is getting hotter than in previous years. At this time, there are already a bunch of people wearing straw sandals and straw hats when working in the fields.

Under the bright sun, Zhao Yuanle couldn't help covering the glare of the sun with his arms, and walked to the river to see his bearded pig.

They were swimming in the river, but there was not enough water to completely submerge them.

She walked over and stepped on the bank of the river, a piece of dry mud fell down, and then a long strip of dry mud fell down, falling into the water and splashing a little.

Zhao Yuanle: "Hurry up, don't take a bath."

Xuzhu understood Zhao Yuanle's words, and ran ashore one after another, following Zhao Yuanle.

Zhao Yuanle glanced at the side of the road, and patted the head of one of the bearded pigs: "See, those people from other villages, follow closely, and once they do something, hit me."

The bearded pig groaned and groaned, digging the soil with its hooves.

Zhao Yuanle: "You guys need to walk around the village more."

It's been a bit unsettling recently.

The weather is too dry, the paddy fields have dried up, and many people's rice is almost hopeless.

Not only rice, but also other vegetables and other crops have died a lot due to weather problems.

She knew that on the surrounding hills and slopes, a group of people were digging wild vegetables, almost hollowing out the wild vegetables.

But at this time, there is only a large expanse of fresh green here.

Her pickles are growing well, the sweet potatoes are still lush, and some surrounding vegetables are all good.

These things, placed here at this time, are particularly eye-catching.

After dismissing the bearded pigs, Zhao Yuanle saw Jinfeng carrying a sling.

There is still a lot of pork left in Jinfeng's back.

She handed one of the pair of pig's trotters to Zhao Yuanle.

"Take it and stew it. I heard Xi'er said the day before yesterday that she wanted to eat pig's trotters."

Zhao Yuanle took the trotter and asked, "Is there any water in your well?"

Jinfeng sighed.

"There is water, but there is water, but now we have to fetch water, the rope is all over and we have to throw it to the end, it is too laborious to fetch a bucket of water.

I told the old lady to stop washing her feet at night, but she was not happy, and insisted that I also used waste water when I washed my face. "

Zhao Yuanle: "The well water in my house is also much shallower, and now I can save water."

The water used to wash the face and feet, and the water used to wash the feet also flushes the toilet. When taking a shower, there is no need for a large bathtub, it is just a simple flush.

And because of the sudden dryness and heat this year, the villagers who managed to develop some hygienic habits have become old again. They haven't bathed for a long time, and the smell is coming out of their bodies again.

Jinfeng carried the sling on his back and said again: "This year is sure to be dry, and the food supply will definitely increase. I advise you to sell all the pigs quickly and keep those breeding pigs, otherwise, in two months, all these pigs will be smashed." inside.

Oh, your school, stop too.

People have no food to eat, and you are still here to deliver it. When the time comes, a bunch of people will block your house and see what you do. "

Zhao Yuanle nodded: "I have already told Yao'er that the semester will end in two days, and then it will be summer vacation."

Jinfeng nodded, and went home with the sash on her back.

Zhao Yuanle sighed, his brows were filled with sorrow.

She went to the pig farm and felt helpless when she saw that there were twenty or thirty pigs left.

"I can only sell you cheap."

After selling, buy food and save it.

After walking out of the pigsty, Zhao Yuanle sighed when he saw Widow Yu holding the ledger.

Zhao Yuanle walked over curiously.

"What's wrong with this ledger?"

Seeing that it was Zhao Yuanle, Widow Yu smiled helplessly: "The account book is nothing, I am worried about the future.

Seeing that the water in the river is getting less and less, as well as the well here, the water is about to bottom out.

If things go on like this, the water to eat will be strained, so is there still water for making brushes? "

Zhao Yuanle glanced at the big sun, and said the decision he had already made.

"This workshop, this batch of pig hair has been processed, so let's stop for a while."

Widow Yu nodded: "That's the only way."

After making this decision, Zhao Yuanle and Widow Yu made an agreement on wages.

After finishing these, Zhao Yuanle walked under a very thick bread tree.

The bread tree didn't have many leaves, and its branches didn't shade from the sun, so it couldn't provide Zhao Yuanle with shade.

Zhao Yuanle stretched out his hand, touched the bread tree, and then looked at the trunk with his fingers.

There was an echoing sound from inside, muffled.

Zhao Yuanle knew that the trunk was hollow, and a lot of water had already accumulated inside.

When the water for eating is gone, you can dig a hole in the trunk and scoop water out of it.

After thinking about it, Zhao Yuanle raised his head and looked at the top of the tree.

"Unfortunately, there is no fruit."

After all, these trees haven't grown too long, and they can't bear fruit yet.

Just when Zhao Yuanle was feeling sad, Lai Dai parked his tricycle on the side of the road and walked towards her.

Beside him is Hong'er, who holds the money he received tightly in his arms.

Laicai: "Boss Liu in Sanliang Town said that the money is a bit too much to turn around, so I owe it first and pay it next month."

Zhao Yuanle: "Only him?"

Laicai nods.

"It's only him, but what the boss is saying is that it's not working recently, the price of goods has risen, and business is not easy."

Zhao Yuanle: "Aside from the increase in food, what else is there?"

Laicai: "Food has increased, labor has also increased, and the prices of things to buy have also increased. The same price has increased, and everything has increased."

Zhao Yuanle sighed: "Okay, anyway, my batch of pigs is sold, and after the pig hair is finished, I won't do it.

I will only sell the brushes after that after paying the full price, and you don’t need to collect the money, you can just send the things. "

I'm in a hurry to get rich.

"What about after that?"

Zhao Yuanle: "Let's talk about it later. As you have seen, the weather this year is not good. I'm afraid there will be a drought. We still have to prepare."

Laicai: "Then I..."

Zhao Yuanle: "There are other things to do later, so you don't have to worry."

She looked at Hong'er.

"You too, don't worry."

Only then did Hong'er breathe a sigh of relief.

Laicai looked at the place where the woolen pig was, and asked, "The woolen pig, do you still want to keep it?"

These pigs only eat for at least three months after harvesting their fur.

Zhao Yuanle thought about it, and said, "When the wool is harvested in June, I will sell more than half of it, and the rest will be enough."

The meat of woolen pigs is much tastier than ordinary pigs, she knows this.

You can kill and eat meat without using the hair. This pig is quite cost-effective to raise.

After Laicai understood this, he took Hong'er inside.

Zhao Yuanle walked across the road and returned to his home.

A sun-shading shed has been set up at home, and there are electric fans running with long wires underneath.

Zhao Yuanle walked over and turned off one fan.

"Blowing one is enough, why are there two blowing against each other?"

Zhao Yuanlan held a fan in his hand, helplessly: "It's hot, this weather is the same as August in the second heat."

There was intense worry in Zhao Yuanxi's eyes.

"This weather must be miserable this year."

At this time, it is hot and dry, and all the food is gone.

Zhao Yuanle sat at the side, took a sip of ice water, and said, "I said, in the future, there will be less water in the freezer for drinking. It's full of food. There's no place for you to freeze it and play."

Zhao Yuanlan groaned, her face full of disappointment.

"It's so hot, I must drink ice water."

Zhao Yuanle: "Drinking ice water will make your stomach hurt, listen to my sister, don't drink it."

Zhao Yuanlan: "What about your pig's milk? Doesn't the pig's milk freeze in?"

Zhao Yuanle: "After the piglets were born before, I haven't let them have babies until now. There is no pig milk jelly."

Listening to the pig milk, Cheng Cheng opened his mouth and said the word milk.

He can already understand a lot of meanings now, and he will pop out a word or two.

Zhao Yuanle listened to the milk words, and walked over to touch Chengcheng's little face.

"Give us Chengcheng some time to drink pig's milk."

Saliva flowed from the corner of Chengcheng's mouth, and he looked at Zhao Yuanle with a smirk.

Yao'er picked up a small handkerchief and walked over to wipe Chengcheng's mouth.

"Oh, it's so hot that I have to suspend class."

His joy in lecturing was gone.

Zhao Yuanle: "It's okay, it will be cooler in autumn, you can continue teaching."

At this time, Yao'er couldn't help looking at Zhao Yuanle.

"Sister, what do you think we are doing here?"

Zhao Yuanle: "The newspaper said that the south is doing it."

Yao'er: "What about the north side?"

Zhao Yuanle was helpless: "It's flooding in the north, and the rain hasn't stopped."

Yao'er looked worried: "That can't be done, if the mother river bursts..."

The consequences are really unimaginable.

Zhao Yuanle: "I don't know, I hope the rain over there will stop soon, and the rain here will fall sooner."

With a creak, He Ju opened the door with a dustpan in her hand and came out.

She sighed.

"God doesn't know what to do. It's like this every time. After two years of good life, there will be disasters and disasters in the next year."

Zhao Yuanle: "San Niang, have you been like this before?"

He Ju nodded: "Yes, at most one or two years, God has a conscience, other times, the weather is not right."

Zhao Yuanle thought of his father and third uncle who went out to work, and got up again to call for help.

Shouting a few times at the edge of the field, she watched Zhao Ercheng and Zhao Sancheng come back with hoes on their shoulders.

Zhao Ercheng looked sad.

"This corn is going to dry out."

Zhao Sancheng: "There must be no harvest this year, and there must be a bunch of scabies and corn."

Zhao Yuanle: "What? Have you opened it and read it?"

Zhao Ercheng: "Then do you need to break it open? You can see it at a glance.

Fortunately, our family does not have to worry about food, otherwise we will definitely be hungry this year. "

Zhao Sancheng smiled at this time.

"Fortunately, I listened to Lele before and bought a lot of food for storage."

Zhao Ercheng: "How many?"

Zhao Sancheng shook his head: "I can't remember clearly."

Anyway, every time the storage place is dug up, I will take the money to buy grain.

He has forgotten how much grain he bought.

Anyway, now this food is enough to feed my whole family for three years.

Zhao Yuanle walked in front: "Go, go home, we have to eat."

The food at home is indeed less than before.

This is what Zhao Yuanle told Ms. Wen.

On the second day, Zhao Yuanle drove a tricycle to the county.

The number of idlers in the county is also visible to the naked eye.

However, these people still had good eyesight and never offended Zhao Yuanle.

After entering the city, Zhao Yuanle went straight to the post office.
