Escape to the desert and farming: bring hundreds of billions of supplies to support the whole family

Chapter 196 The dried meat business is profitable

"Why did you think of giving this to us?"

Ms. Liu never thought about receiving jewelry from her daughter. She never even thought about when to wear it. This was not something she wanted to think about.

But suddenly, her daughter gave her a gold bracelet, which made her feel soft and happy.

"I hope you are happy! I see that many people in the town are wearing jewelry. If they have it, my mother should have it too!"

Mrs. Liu patted her head, "Silly child."

"We have money now. Whatever you want, I will buy it for you."

"Little sister, you gave jewelry to my mother and sisters-in-law, so what do you give to us?" Shen Sanlang asked with a smile.

"It's all in the hands of my nephews! Make clothes for you to wear!"

Shen Sanlang just said it casually, but he didn't expect that they would actually have a role to play.

He suddenly said in surprise, "Thank you so much, little sister!"

Shen Nuanning raised her eyebrows.

The next day was very early.

Mrs. Liu put on the gold bracelet and touched it again and again, then put the bracelet into the box and hid it.

"Why did you take it off again? You just wore it as a gift from your daughter!" Old Shen said.

"It's not easy to work with a bracelet on. It will get worn out if you're not careful. It will be terrible if it breaks." She is just as happy even if she doesn't wear it.

"My daughter bought it for you, just to wear it. If it breaks, I'll buy it again. Do you think our family can only buy you a gold bracelet?"

Mrs. Liu glanced at Old Shen unexpectedly and put on the gold bracelet without saying anything.

The boss’s face must still be given.

"I think preparations should be made for the fourth child's marriage. Ning Ning mentioned it to me yesterday."

"Which family's daughter?"

"She's from the county, the restaurant owner's daughter, her surname is Liu."

Old Shen felt that there was no chance, not to mention that his family was not a toad-eater. "This gap is too big. I'm afraid they won't agree."

People live in the county, have houses and shops, what a great condition.

Liu had the same idea as him before, but now, she thought she might as well give it a try. Anyway, with their current conditions, they would be worthy of anyone.

What's more, just because it is like this now, it doesn't mean it will be like this in the future, and the workshop can make money.

"Ning Ning and the fourth child have been to the county several times. The fourth child is interested, and my daughter may also be interested. Let's mention it and see."

Old Shen was startled, "Is it private or something...?"

Mrs. Liu tempered him and said, "My son, what are you talking about? You still don't know whether he has any sense of propriety?"

Old Shen's head is wilted.

Mrs. Liu is preparing to send people to propose marriage.

After Shen Nuanning got up, the family members she met were all rosy-cheeked, smiling, and working very energetically.

She couldn't help but wonder, was this a chicken blood injection?

What she didn't know was that everyone had been somewhat stimulated yesterday and had a higher understanding of making money. After making money, they could not help but feed themselves, clothe themselves, and buy gifts for the people they care about to make them happy. .

In order to make jerky at home, we need to build a new small workshop. We can't always occupy the kitchen at home. After all, the kitchen is used to cook meals for the whole family.

The best thing about the remoteness of the village is that the village has a large area and a lot of land is allocated to the villagers, so there will be no quarrels over occupying an extra site or building an extra house.

Old Shen decided to build the workshop not far from his home and close to a stream for easy access to water.

After finding a site, we started to gather people and started working on it. It was just a small house, but it didn't take long to build it.

The main people making dried meat are the Xiao Liu family, Lin family and Zhang family. Liu family will occasionally help out. If there are not enough people in the future, then they will hire more people.

However, the recipe is still confidential at the moment. It may take them half a year to raise the pigs, so there is no rush.

The eldest brother is helping to build the workshop, and the second and third brothers are going out. They want to find a village to collect some piglets to raise, and they can also make jerky by then. Shen Erlang and Shen Sanlang took several children down the mountain and went to other villages.

Not far from Shenjia Village, there is Sanli Village. They have obviously settled here for generations. There are more than a hundred families. The houses are not closely arranged, but the surrounding cultivated land is well managed and the land is very fertile. Most of it is mountainous. At the foot, there are several houses built on the mountainside.

The road up the mountain is difficult, even more difficult than the mountain road in Shenjia Village.

When Shen Erlang and Shen Sanlang walked up, they simultaneously thought of repairing the road going down the mountain in the village if they had the money in the future.

I walked around the village and bought five little piglets. Each of them carried one piggy and went home.

"Dad, I want to raise a little pig!"

"Second uncle, I want to support him too!"

The children looked at the cute little suckling pig and hummed softly, which made the children very curious.

"I'll feed you all, as long as you don't cry tired!"

"We won't cry tired!"

Two men and three children went home happily.

The house was built in three days. Shen Nuanning made another excuse to go to the county and actually bought a pot for use in a small workshop dedicated to making braised pork jerky.

In order to transport dried meat, Old Shen went to the county to buy a truck.

For the transportation work, the eldest brother and the fourth child partnered, and the third child and the second child partnered, taking turns delivering the goods. As for the accounting work, it was temporarily handed over to the fourth child who was the best at arithmetic.

The mistress quit, "Grandpa, leave it to me, I want to count!"

Old Shen didn't even think about it, "You're not good at studying, so what should you do?"

"I'm good at math. I want to keep accounts for our family! If I don't know how, I'll ask my husband!"

Liu asked from the side, "Xiao Si, do you want to count?"

Xiao Si shook his head and said, "Leave it to Third Brother."

Mrs. Liu said directly from the side, "Grandma agreed, you will do our accounting. You have to calculate clearly how much our dried meat sold and how much we have to pay to those uncles and uncles!"

Old Shen was helpless.

Xiaosan's eyes lit up, "Don't worry, grandma, I will figure it out!"

Ms. Liu continued, "Boss, daughter-in-law, and boss, second, third and fourth, you also have to learn how to count. You have to know how much money you make. Follow your sons and nephews and learn from them. Don't make any progress at all by then!" The mistress made a mistake, and you still don’t know that you got less money.”

"Yes, mother."

All the sons and daughters-in-law responded one after another.

Soon, the first wave of dried meat was sold.

To everyone's surprise, the mistress kept the accounts very seriously and collected a wild boar from the village, weighing 256 jins, and 40 fen per pound, for a total of 10,240 fen. One hundred and fifty-three pounds of dried meat, one pound of one hundred and twenty Wen, a total profit of 18,43 Wen, and a net profit of eighty-two, one hundred and ninety-two Wen.

Everyone was stunned, looking at the mistress's abacus in disbelief.

“So much money, so much money!”

They somewhat suspected that Xiaosan had made a mistake in his calculations. After all, he was too naughty and did not do well in his homework.

After Shen Da and Shen Si returned home after delivering the goods, they saw everyone's expectant eyes.

Shen Shi grinned, "The money is at brother's place!"

Shen Da put the cloth bag on the table, and the silver and copper plates rolled out.

"I specifically asked for some more copper coins so that I could pay the bills to the villagers."

After dividing the money, Mrs. Liu paid wages to everyone. Her son, daughter-in-law each received two hundred coins. Shen Nuanning also gave two hundred coins, and then left one or two more. The mistress who settled the accounts received one hundred coins. Wen's salary makes me want to jump with excitement.

"I'm going to the county to buy something!"

Everyone else looked at the mistress with envy.

Mrs. Liu said, "Have you seen the usefulness of studying? If you have skills and can do calculations, it will be easier to make money."
