Chapter 16 Buying a Cow
Chu Jiaojiao was speechless for a while, but she didn't know what to say, so she took the bowl in front of old man Li: "If you don't eat, don't eat, you're wasting my food."

Old man Li's character is a bit crazy, he belongs to the kind who is not big or small, just like Chu Jiaojiao.

If Chu Jiaojiao kept persuading him to eat, maybe he would still refuse to eat.

But now seeing Chu Jiaojiao's protective face, he became rebellious in an instant, and he began to feel that what Chu Jiaojiao was holding was a good thing.

"Oh, girl Chu, is this really delicious?" Old man Li asked.

If it were before, he would definitely not want to see Chu Jiaojiao, but yesterday Chu Jiaojiao rarely quarreled with him, and today her temper is even better.

It's a completely different person.

Old man Li is very surprised that Chu Jiaojiao has become so temperamental now, and thinks that this girl is still like this, which suits his appetite.

Chu Jiaojiao frowned: "Don't you think it tastes bad, don't eat it, I won't give it to you."

Uncle Liu had already picked up the bowl that Lin Chen had mixed for him and started to eat. When he saw old man Li and Chu Jiaojiao getting into a fight, he suddenly smiled heartily.

"It's delicious." Uncle Liu took a sip of the jelly in the bowl and praised it sincerely.

Old man Li's eyes became even redder, and he began to plead in a low voice: "Girl of the Chu family, just let me taste the good stuff in your hand! Are you still planning to sell this stuff? I eat it, if It’s delicious, and I’ll yell at you everywhere.”

That stuff is called propaganda.

Chu Jiaojiao quarreled with old man Li for a while before giving him the jelly.

Probably this kind of mentality that the stolen things are really delicious is at work. Old man Li's bowl of jelly is very refreshing, and the kind with glowing eyes.

"Uncle Li, I have something to discuss with you." Chu Jiaojiao said to old man Li with a smile.

Hearing this, old man Li raised his eyes and glanced at her: "Pork can't be given to you cheaply."

"It's not pork, it's pig offal." Chu Jiaojiao said excitedly, "I made pig offal, and they will definitely go back and try it. I want to buy it in the future, but I won't be able to buy it."

This is the truth.

Even if Chu Jiaojiao is not afraid of spreading her craftsmanship, the women in the village who are good at research can also research it.

What's more, these things are actually not difficult, it's just that people have tried it once before and found it unpalatable, so they refused to try it.

But now that Chu Jiaojiao has already made it, they will definitely work hard.

The point is, Chu Jiaojiao can't completely hide her secrets. If someone asks her in the future, she still has to tell her.

This kind of little thing doesn't have many secrets, so it will be replaced sooner or later.

But at the moment, this is indeed their capital to make money.

"Okay, it's just a pig into the water." Old man Li said with a smile, "It's not any other good thing. Even if it is sold now, no one wants it."

With old man Li's words, Chu Jiaojiao felt relieved.

Old man Li has always been a man who keeps his word.

He is not only warm and generous, but also very righteous.

Chu Jiaojiao bit Lin Chen's arm and asked him to toast to Uncle Li.

Lin Chen held the wine glass and offered a toast.

Chu Jiaojiao turned to look at Uncle Liu again: "Uncle Liu..."

"Okay, what does the girl of the Chu family want from me?" Uncle Liu asked directly with a smile.

Chu Jiaojiao was no longer shy, and went straight to the point: "Ah Chen and my second brother both want to take the college entrance examination, but the review materials at home are so few, look..."

"It's okay to read books, but it's agreed, come to my house every day to read, and it's impossible to borrow them." Village head Liu is also very talkative.

After all, cannibals are soft-mouthed and short-handed.

Chu Jiaojiao smiled and poured another glass of wine for Village Chief Liu. She was very happy and poured herself a glass as well, wanting to respect the two of them.

"Then I'll toast the two uncles here. I still have a lot to use in the future." Chu Jiaojiao said with a smile.

Both Village Chief Liu and Old Man Li raised their wine glasses. After drinking for three rounds, the chatterboxes opened up. In addition, Chu Jiaojiao had a sweet mouth. Both Village Chief Liu and Old Man Li clinked glasses with her with smiles.

But just when they were about to meet, the wine glass in Chu Jiaojiao's hand was taken away by one hand, and Lin Chen clinked glasses with the two elders.

"I'll drink for her." A deep voice sounded.

Both Village Chief Liu and Old Man Li were used to Lin Chen's silence, they suddenly heard him speak, and laughed at the same time, without saying anything, they had a drink.

Eating and drinking, by the time everything is done, it is already afternoon, and it is almost dusk.

Village head Liu and old man Li were afraid that their mother-in-law would make trouble, so they didn't dare to stay longer, so they got up and left in a hurry.

Just happened to bump into Chu Tian who was going home, the two baskets that Chu Tian was carrying were already empty, and the things inside were sold out.

While he was unloading, Chu Ming and Chu Liang had already returned, each carrying a basket full of Jerusalem artichokes.

After Chu Jiaojiao finished clearing the table, seeing the three of them coming back, she immediately greeted them.

Chu Tian handed over the money earned in the afternoon to Chu Jiaojiao, and said beamingly, "Jiaojiao, I earned a total of one yuan and seventy cents."

"So much?" Chu Jiaojiao was a little surprised.

Prices are still very low now, a popsicle costs only five cents, and one yuan and seventy cents can buy a lot of things.

But it's still close to seeing a doctor for Lin Chen.

Chu Jiaojiao didn't dare to take Lin Chen to see a doctor in the city without a person in her [-]s or [-]s.

Compared with twenty or thirty, one yuan and seven is much less.

"Yes." Chu Tian also brightened his heart, "It only costs me [-] cents to weave a basket. If I weave one in two or three nights, I may not be able to sell it."

In comparison, it is easier for them to make money selling these foods.

Chu Ming and Chu Liang also approached.

"Prepare more tomorrow." When Chu Jiaojiao is rich, she can buy more pork belly, but Old Man Li's butcher's shop only has one set of pork belly.

She has to go to other villages to see more.

"Selling in the village is definitely not enough, you have to go to the town." Chu Jiaojiao lowered her head and pondered, "There are not many pigs in the water."

Today I just tried to sell them in the village, but there are few people in the village, and it is impossible to buy these snacks every day.

But now there are far distances in the ten miles and eight villages, and they can't walk a few villages even if they carry a burden to sell.

It would be nice to have a bicycle.

But now a bicycle costs over a hundred dollars, which is sky-high.

"There are several butcher shops in the town, we'll get up early tomorrow to buy some." Chu Ming said, "By the way, the village chief's house still has oxen for plowing, so it's much more convenient to set up a ox cart and go back and forth. "

Bullock cart?

Chu Jiaojiao suddenly remembered that the cows of Village Chief Liu's family are basically kept at home except during the busy farming season. Village Chief Liu's family also has cows.

"Did the cows in Uncle Liu's family give birth to calves this year?" Chu Jiaojiao asked.

A calf sells for five or six yuan, and she saves up some money to buy a calf, which will definitely be needed when it grows up.
