Chapter 109 It's Done

"Haha...ha...it's me! However, I pretended to be afraid that those who knew I made money...would cause trouble!"

Xia Qiyue admitted generously, and An Youde also laughed, saying that she was very funny pretending to be a man.

"Okay, stop laughing, express your opinion quickly, do you want to do it?"

An Youde didn't hesitate, "Of course I do, don't I have to save some money for my wife too? Brothers, right?" After speaking, he was not at all embarrassed, and asked the others with a smile.

"You're not bad, boy! I'm already thinking about marrying a wife!" An Sijin laughed and teased him.

"Then it's settled! You guys will come over to work tomorrow! It's agreed that you'll be paid two taels of silver a month, and you'll start counting from today! The most important point is that the halva I made is a novelty. If you keep it tight, don’t let it out! Besides, don’t shout too much when you go back to the village, there are enough of you six or six here, don’t need anyone else! When everyone wants to do it, it will be troublesome!”

The six of them nodded fiercely, but in the end they couldn't stand Xia Qiyue, and ecstatically accepted the salary of two taels a month.

They couldn't believe that their fate would be so good. Being able to be with the fourth sister-in-law was the most unfathomable chance for them to change their fate since they left their homes and fled famine. Obviously, they all seized this opportunity.

Everyone was full of gratitude in their hearts, and they secretly swore their loyalty to Xia Qiyue, and they would be blah blah blah blah in the future.

"Okay! Hurry up and get to work. I'll go out to buy firewood and cook something delicious for you tonight!" Xia Qiyue waved her hand, she really didn't want to peel peanuts, her fingers hurt.

It would be great if there is a machine, you don't need to peel it by hand, saving labor and time.

It has already been agreed that the six people who will work with the fourth sister-in-law will not hold back on dinner, so they might as well do more work quickly when they have that time.

It didn't take long for the six people to be cold, Xia Xinghe had already brought firewood in to light the fire. Seeing this, Xia Qiyue pondered for a while.

For this younger brother, she doesn't know how to arrange it, let's study, it's a bit late for enlightenment, but let him work, he is only ten years old, and he is too young, at least in her eyes.

Let him do less work with the six people first, and let her think about it before making arrangements.

No matter how good this younger brother is to her, whether it was when the original owner was there or after she came, the younger siblings still treat her so wholeheartedly.

Although the two of them have little ability, she can feel full of family affection in some performances, which is enough, and she is willing to pay for the two of them.

Jiuli Town is very large, the main streets are crowded with people, there are endless hawkers, and there are everything for sale, including their own products, prey, mountain products, and firewood.

Because farmers will go out to chop firewood and sell it when they are free, and some of them can't do anything, so they can only sell firewood.

Xia Qiyue asked several people, and a bundle of firewood was worth two copper coins, so she simply bought all the firewood for the five people standing together.

Two bundles per person, because the bundles are so big, they can only carry two bundles when they rush to sell, but one of them actually has twenty bundles, because his family has a bullock cart, so he pulls a little more at a time, so he doesn't have to carry firewood to town every day Save time and effort.

"Girl, do you really want all of them?" The uncle with twenty bundles of firewood asked in disbelief.

"Well, send them all to my house! I haven't bought firewood yet in winter, and I'm going to burn some at home today, and you don't have enough for me to burn!" Xia Qiyue nodded, and was about to lead the people away after speaking.

Isn't that enough?She needs to cook tea eggs to sell, and also to make halva, all of which need firewood, and she uses a lot of it.

Fortunately, there is still a place to store firewood in the backyard, so it is not a problem to buy a hundred and eighty bundles at a time.

"Do you want more? We still have some at home. If you want them, I can send them to you tomorrow, okay?" The young man who carried two bundles of firewood alone had already asked for firewood in Xia Qiyue.

"My family has it too!" The person next to him said not to be outdone.

The old man who was leading the ox cart murmured, "Our family also has them. I chop firewood every day!"

Xia Qiyue nodded, "Okay, you will get to know my family in a while, and I will deliver them tomorrow. Our family needs a lot of firewood for business. You can send them over every two days. I will go out and buy them if I save!"

The five people were overjoyed. They came from the same village, more than 20 miles away from Jiuli Town, in the opposite direction from Xia Qiyue and their current Baijia Village. It's not that the five of them never thought about finding a permanent mansion to deliver firewood, but I can't find it.

I don’t know what kind of shit luck I had today, but I met someone who needed a lot of firewood, and I sent firewood every two days, so that they didn’t have to chop firewood every morning and sell it in the afternoon, and the firewood was cut for one day and delivered the next day. Don't be afraid that you won't be able to sell it if you make a trip in vain.

"All right, girl, how much firewood do you need at a time, we will try our best to meet your needs!"

The young man who was the first to ask asked another question. Xia Qiyue raised her eyebrows. This is to buy out her business. This young man still has a bit of a business mind.

"Thirty bundles at a time is about the same! Look at the points!" Xia Qiyue led the way and answered the young man's question.

Burning thirty bundles for three days should be enough.

Ten bundles of firewood a day should be enough for cooking tea eggs, cooking on a kang, and making crispy candies.

"Okay, okay, girl, don't worry, we only want more, not less!"

The matter of the firewood was settled in this way. In the future, someone will deliver the firewood on time, so Xia Qiyue won't have to waste time and effort to buy it on the street.

The houses they rented in this area were relatively wealthy families, so they wouldn’t be hungry for three meals, but they weren’t too rich either. It should be no problem if they had enough food, clothing, warmth, and money. .

Because the houses in this area don't seem too big, the yard that Xia Qiyue rented is the average level here, but on the way back from buying firewood, she also saw carriages coming and going, and her two neighbors But there was no movement at all.

Walking out of their house, it didn't take long to reach the bustling street market. There are various shops and stalls selling all kinds of gadgets on the side of the road. Xia Qiyue didn't go shopping one by one. She crossed this street and went to the front The bazaar to buy peanuts, the bazaar is more lively than this street, but the things sold are not as exquisite as this street, but the most common but most indispensable, basic necessities of life.

The 28 bundles of firewood cost her 56 copper coins. Five people got the copper coins. After recognizing the door, they said that the firewood would be delivered on time in two days, and then turned around and left without delay.

The door of the West Wing was closed tightly, so outsiders would not be able to find out unless Xia Qiyue agreed.

The firewood was also available, so she started to make dinner, and she had to send someone back after dinner before dark, otherwise it would be bad if something happened on the road.

Although they are all young men, this place is not the place where they grew up, and they are not familiar with it not long after they arrived, so it is better to be cautious.

 Today's copy has been sent, and the children have a happy work and life
