After dressing as a peasant mother-in-law, she just wants to farm

Chapter 25 Harvesting Chestnuts

Su Yun quite agrees with his idea.

But Li Hongmei was very dissatisfied and said out loud, "No, isn't it cheaper than those people in the village, we can go up the mountain to pick it up!"

"Even if our whole family went to the mountains overnight to pick it up, how much can we pick up? It still can't catch up with the sales."

"If you can't catch up with the sale, it's a waste of the opportunity to make money. It can be done like this. You still go to the mountains to pick it up every day, but you also collect it from the people in the village. Not only go to the village to collect it, but also go to other places, and collect as much as you can." Su. Yun said in a very firm tone.

If you think about it carefully, what she said really makes sense.

So He Daping immediately said, "Mother, I will go to the village to collect chestnuts in the afternoon."

"Then I'll go to another village tomorrow to harvest." At this time, He Daping also spoke.

Su Yun nodded in agreement, "Okay, then tomorrow I will go to the town with Damao to sell millet, and I will bring Yutian with me. He is not young anymore, he can help a lot, and he can learn a lot by the way."

After hearing this, He Daguang was overjoyed, and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, what mother said is that we should let him learn more."

"I want to go too!" At this time, He Yuhu couldn't help raising his little hand.

But Su Yun looked at him pretending to be disgusted, "Look at your dirty little face and hands. Going to the town to sell things will scare away the buyers."

"I'll take you there when you learn to love cleanliness."

Sure enough, upon hearing her disgusting words, the brat fell silent instantly.

"Then, what about me? I'll take a rest tomorrow." After a while, He Anwen asked weakly.

Everyone seems to be useful, including the nephew, but he is fine, which seems to make him somewhat useless.

Turning to look at him, "Just study hard, and what's more, teach the little ones at home how to read tomorrow."

"Prepare for the next round of assessment tomorrow."

After eating, they discussed again, and finally He Daguang drove the ox cart and left the village, and He Daping and He Damao went to the village to collect chestnuts.

If you make too much and the family can't finish it, it's better to sell it to earn a few copper coins, so they are still happy to sell it.

Only when they reach a family, they are not willing to sell it, and they will only sell it if the price is increased.

"Did you do any business in the town again? If you tell me, I'll sell it. If you don't tell me, I won't sell it." Liu Zhushi looked at them and asked curiously.

"Aunt Liu, it's fine if you're not willing to sell it. Your family is not the only one in the village. At worst, we'll go to another house."

"Second brother, let's go." After speaking, they turned around and left.

Liu Zhushi looked at it and stomped her feet angrily, but in the end she held back.

She wants to see what the He family has done.

She wants to keep all the chestnuts, maybe she can learn to sell them for money in the future.

The total collected in the village is about [-] catties, but this is not enough to sell for a day.

Fortunately, He Daguang came back at night and brought back fifty or sixty catties.

Ordinary people of course would not pick these chestnuts, but when they heard that someone picked them up, they naturally went to the mountain to pick them up without saying a word.

So when they picked it up and peeled it off, he came back a bit late.

"I made an agreement with them, buy as much as you want, and collect it tomorrow."

Looking at those chestnuts, Su Yun smiled with a smile on her face, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, boss, I cooked chestnut porridge, and I'll wait for you."

The sweet chestnut porridge, not to mention how delicious it was, I ate three bowls of it one by one before putting it down.

But after hearing that they finished eating, they felt a little distressed. These are all money.

The family ate it, and at least they ate two catties.

Seeing everyone's painful faces, Su Yun smiled and said, "Okay, don't feel bad, your body is more important! If you don't eat well, you won't have the strength to work."

"You should worry about tomorrow's assessment now, and review it well tonight."

Sure enough, upon hearing this, each one of them couldn't care less about feeling distressed, and began to think about what they had learned in the past few days.

It wasn't until the next day that they sold out the chestnuts and came back from the town. After resting for a while, Su Yun was ready to test them.

Of course this time it was more difficult than last time, so when they were writing, they all looked distressed, and even scratched their heads anxiously because they couldn't remember.

After a long time, this assessment is considered to be over.

Not long after, Su Yun came out with a reward.

"Among the children this time, He Hua has made great progress, so grandma decided to give you a progress award. The best one is still He Cui. Both of you will be rewarded with a wooden comb."

"As for the adults, it's best to be the second daughter-in-law, and the prize is also a wooden comb. I hope you can continue to work hard!"

Wooden combs cost a few pennies to buy in the town, Wang Huilan was very happy.

He Cui and He Huaxin were even happier. They usually shared a comb with their mother, and it was still a very old comb. Now, they have their own combs.

Only Liu Lanhua and Li Hongmei were unhappy.

Why is the second daughter-in-law getting the reward again!

But even though he thought so unconvinced in his heart, he dared not say anything out of his mouth.

Because once you say it, you will definitely be taught by your mother-in-law, so let's hold it back.

After a while, He Daguang asked, "Mother, do I have to go to other villages to collect chestnuts tomorrow?"

"Go, I want to charge a little more now." Su Yun nodded.

In the past few days, I have earned almost one or two taels of silver, which is still very good.

"How about we stop adding sugar, I think it's still sweet without sugar." At this time, He Daping said out loud.

"Now I have to spend money everywhere to collect chestnuts and buy sugar, and the profit has decreased." He felt that it was not worthwhile.

But at this moment, Su Yun looked at the children in the family and asked, "Do you think the one with sugar is delicious, or the one without sugar?"

He Yuhu was the first to answer, "Of course the ones with sugar are delicious, and they are deliciously sweet, but the ones without sugar have too little sweetness, and some even I can't taste the sweetness."

Su Yun nodded, "Look, brother with sugar. It tastes better. We usually sell sugared ones, but we will suddenly stop selling them in the future. Maybe we will lose customers."

"What if one day others want to imitate us and sell fried chestnuts? So we have to build word of mouth and compete with others for taste."

They all nodded after listening.

"Mother still thinks long-term and thoughtful."

Su Yun pursed her lips and smiled, "It's nothing. In business, it's taboo to cut corners and shoddy goods. In these points, we can't do this kind of thing anyway. It's not a signboard to be found out."

"Mother, is it possible that you still want to be a time-honored brand?" He Daping asked suddenly.

"What's wrong, even if we don't want to be a time-honored brand, we still have to make a name for ourselves in the town."

"If we have to do other business in the future, it will be easier for people to believe, isn't it?"

After hearing this, He Daping felt that what she said made sense.

She nodded in agreement, "Yes, what mother said makes sense."

Then he said, "Brother, if you can, you can go a little farther and collect as much as possible in other towns. After a long time, people will know that this food can be eaten and sold for money. You can't get it for a penny or a catty." .”
