Chapter 1526 Going Down the Mountain Again
Chu Ran nodded and said, "Take some food back. You haven't prepared anything."

"Thank you, Comrade Chu."

Brothers Chen Jiang and Chen Tong went to the kitchen and brought out half a bag of flour, some cabbages, green onions, and a bowl of lard, which they kept there so they wouldn't spill.

All the supplies have been bought, and I can go back and cook with the food.

"Commander Shen, I'm sorry to bother you. The hotel is closed at this time. It's so cold that I have no choice but to come here to bother you."

"It's okay, go back and rest, we can talk about it tomorrow.

Lao Wu, do you have any meat to bring back?"

Cao Qingping immediately refused. "Commander Shen, we have some dry food with us. We won't bother you anymore."

Cao Xueying and her eldest and second brothers walked in front, talking quickly about the shop.

The two brothers were really excited. Their father said he might buy a shop, but they were still uneasy because they couldn't be sure until they went down the mountain. Now, their family also has a shop in the county town.

Everyone else in the village was quite envious.

It was very quiet outside at night. There were patrols in the city. Luckily, we were not far away, otherwise we would have been stopped and had to talk nonsense.

After entering the shop, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Cao Xueying opened all the doors, let everyone in to rest after a while, and she went to cook.

Everyone was busy making a fire. Actually, the room was still warm, so everyone could work faster.

Cao Xueying steamed all the dry food she brought. She cut the cabbage and prepared to make dumpling soup, which was comfortable to eat while it was hot.

The two older brothers of the Cao family helped their sister in the kitchen.

Cao Xueying talked about the process of buying the shop, "Although I spent thirty yuan on the wine, I made fifty yuan. Brother, I thought we should come down on the second day of the Chinese New Year to buy wine. We will still sell wine in the future. There are so many people coming to buy wine."

“Is it so profitable?”

"Well, it's also Shopkeeper Shen who gave us the cheap wine. He should be losing money to us, but we can definitely make money. Add to that the mountain products, and the business will definitely be good."

"That's good. You've been busy these past few days. I've cleaned it up and bought coal."

"It wasn't me. It was the comrade with one arm missing that you saw just now who helped me. He was the one who helped sell the wine in the shop while I went to make the quilts."

"Is that person also a soldier?"

"Yes, he is Chief Shen's brother-in-law."

The two brothers said nothing more, Cao Lao Er went to bring hot water to everyone, everyone wanted to wash up and drink hot water. It was too cold.

The other people in the village were talking about the shop in a low voice.

"Fifth brother, this shop must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"I don't know exactly how much it cost. It's just the money that the three brothers and sisters saved up."

"That's great. This big house looks good. You can do business in the front. Xueying is really smart."

Of course Cao Qingping was happy to hear his daughter being praised.

The hot water came and the stove in the house was burning brightly.

"Dad, we'll go to the shop to eat soon. It will be ready soon."

"Okay, let's go."

In the kitchen, the brother and sister were talking about bedding.

"Brother, let's just make do with this tonight. The bedding is new and our family hasn't used it yet. Besides, they're not clean and I really can't bear to leave them." "Okay, it's okay. We all have coats with us anyway. As long as we light a little more fire, it will be more comfortable than in the cave."

Cao Xueying was happy. Although she was very close to the people in the village, her family was still more important. It was impossible for her to be so selfless as to give them her own new bedding.

I made three big pots of dumpling soup, but there were not enough bowls, so I had to eat them separately. There was no other way, as no one could prepare more than 30 bowls.

Everyone was very happy drinking the white flour dumpling soup, which was made with lard and onions. It tasted really good.

"Xueying, how much did this shop cost?"

"Five hundred and one, and I gave the boy twenty, which makes five hundred and three. Dad, I borrowed fifty yuan from Comrade Chen Jiang."

Cao Qingping sighed, "Okay, I'll pay them back after I sell the things." Hearing his daughter talking about the price, he knew she must have borrowed money. He was still wondering, didn't the shop ask for 500 yuan? Why didn't he bargain and gave 10 yuan more?
Now is not the time to ask. The four of them are in the same room and they will know soon.

"So much money? You three siblings have a lot of money?"

"I have kept all my New Year's money since I was a child. Besides, I always asked Gangzi and the others to help sell the game, so I have saved some money over the years."

"You are really a successful person, girl."

“No, no, isn’t it because there is no place to spend the money?

Dad, I have an idea, everyone listen, we can all discuss whether it is feasible or not."

"What's wrong?" Cao Qingping asked with a frown.

"Dad, we went to the farm today. The area inside looked very large. There are dozens of granaries on the farm. They are the tall ones we saw from afar."

"Are machines really that useful?" someone asked.

"I haven't seen how machines plough or plant crops in this season. But we can harvest so much food. And today I saw them deliver 50 pigs to the team, and there were also quite a few piglets."

"That's great. What would it be like if fifty pigs were together?" Gangzi asked innocently.

The others laughed, but they were all curious.

Cao Xueying went on to say, “There are a lot of dormitories on the farm, the workers’ wages are quite high, and they also provide food.

Dad, why don't we talk to Commander Shen and Comrade Chen and ask them to add our land to the farm?

Then they will not ignore us and will provide us with machinery and housing. We can also earn wages by then.”

Cao Qingping had already lit a cigarette and frowned as he listened to his daughter's words.

"I don't think so. Let's not talk about whether Comrade Chen agrees or not, let's talk about our side.

They invested so much money, it must be for the purpose of making money. Although the salary is high, they still earn more.

Besides, you will have to listen to others in everything. You won’t feel comfortable.”

"Dad, isn't that certain? I think following Comrade Chen should be guaranteed."

"I guarantee there will be some, but we have the old and the young. There aren't many strong laborers. If they can't do the work, how can they pay them?

Xueying, please don't think about it. I don't want to do this.

Besides, they are not stupid and they will definitely not want us.

Let's just live our lives well. Comrade Chen has promised to let us use farm machinery. Take your time. You can't get fat in one go.

The government has assured us that it will take care of us when the time comes.”

Everyone was thinking about this in their hearts, and some people agreed with Cao Xueying's statement. After all, it would not be so tiring, and someone would give them a house. It was such a good thing.
