Heartless Prince's Palm

Chapter 8 Building a Shed

They went to the food stall and bought some steamed buns in addition to steamed buns. This is what Ye Xing insisted on. He hasn't eaten meat and vegetables for a long time. Now that he has money, he must improve.
"Xing'er, will all the seller's money be given to you?"

He was a little reluctant. According to the past practice, their brothers could keep [-]% of their wages, and usually gave it to their wives.

"Father, this is a special period. We must live on first. Don't worry, with my daughter here, the hard life won't be too long."

She raised her head and smiled at her father, Ye Ying's heart suddenly brightened, yes, her daughter is so smart, is she still worried about not having a good life?
In addition to the four taels of silver, there was still eight hundred coins in her pocket, which was income from selling frogs, and the bag of peppers gave her one hundred coins, which was lying in the space at the moment, and she didn't intend to take it out.

The two hurried out of the city, and saw a family sitting under the wall, staring at the city gate eagerly, Ye Zhen was the first to see his father, and immediately jumped up,
"Father, Second Sister, you are back."

He was so hungry that he drank water, and his stomach wobbled as he ran.

In addition to the empty bag, there was also a lotus leaf bag on the trolley. You could tell it was food without asking. The wrinkles on Mrs. Ye's face suddenly eased, and she knew that this granddaughter was Fudandan.

"So they're all sold?"

"Well, mother, we have money, so we must not starve to death."

Ye Ying smiled. He carefully pulled out the purse from his waist, and handed it to his mother with both hands. Ye Xing also took out a bag containing money from the bottom of the car. Anyway, this is the fruit of the whole family's labor. .

"Silver? Can frogs really sell for silver?"

Mrs. Ye held the purse in her arms. She was very cautious and didn't intend to look at it. The so-called money is not revealed, they are still refugees and have no ability to keep their property.

"No, those frogs were sold for [-] yuan. Xing'er got them from a seller. Hehe, we met a good man."

In his perception, it was only because of the favor of the Bodhisattva that he met a good person. Although those dishes were delicious, they were not worth four taels of silver.

"Sister, I'm hungry."

Ye Zhen couldn't bear it anymore, he had already smelled the smell of meat, but the adults were still talking, so he had to pull the young lady and say,
"Hey, grandma is hungry too. Let's talk while eating. Eat slowly. I haven't eaten anything for two days. It's easy to choke when it's too late."

Ye Xing handed over a steamed stuffed bun, Mrs. Ye froze for a moment, and hurriedly reached out to take it, she took a small bite, the purse in her arms was hard, even after going through so much wind and rain, the shock was too great, how many years up?Her family has never seen silver.

"Steamed buns and steamed buns, one for each person, mother also eats buns!"

Bai was not willing at all, and just wanted to leave it to her husband and children. She took a small mouthful of steamed buns, but was stuffed by her son.
"Grandma, we have negotiated with the restaurant, we will send them frogs every day, 8 cents per catty, let's find a place to live after we eat."

Their quilts were still wet, and it was colder than not covering them.

"Really?! That's great, 8 cents a catty, the same price as meat."

Before Mrs. Ye could speak, the uncle almost jumped up. He used to do odd jobs and did a good job. He only had ten or eight coins a day.

Ye Wei and Ye Yue's eyes also shined, the second sister is really amazing, they finally don't have to be hungry.

"A lot of people are building sheds on the hillside over there. How about we build one too. If the third child finds him, he won't get separated."

Grandma thought for a while and finally made a decision.

It was only then that Ye Xing remembered that there were still two strong laborers in their family, but it was a rainy season, so it would be hard to live in a shed.

Mrs. Ye apologized a little. Waiting for the third child was one of the reasons. The most important thing was that she didn't want to spend money. The money was the hope of rebuilding the home, and it must not be spent at will.

"Grandma, I have another idea. Although frogs can be sold for money, the quantity is limited and we can't use so many people. Besides, they will disappear when the weather gets cold. We have to think about a long-term business."

This thing is just a treat, if there are too many gifts, it will be difficult for the restaurant to sell.

"My dear baby is right, but we are all farmers, how can we make a living? After a while, your uncle and father have to go home and have a look. Although our family does not have much land, those crops are also the rations for survival. ah."

"Let's open another food stall. It doesn't cost much, just buy some bowls and chopsticks."

Not to mention that the start-up capital is very rich, and there is no need to hoard raw materials for snacks, which is a small business.

Mrs. Ye quickly swallowed the steamed buns in her mouth, and looked at her granddaughter with bright eyes. In this job, the women in the family can do it well, and they can make a full stomach even if they don't earn much.

"Just sell some soup and rice. My aunt's cooking is delicious. Let's set up a big pot and cook it early in the morning. My sister is in charge of doing chores, my grandma and mother greet the guests, and my brother and I wash the dishes and pick firewood."

The family has a clear division of labor, but Mrs. Ye shook her head,

"Let Yue'er take Xiao Zhen with you, and you still have to take care of the other side of the restaurant, and help out if you have time."

That is to say, don't let her do fixed things, and take care of both ends. The old man is wise and knows that this granddaughter has a lot of ideas.

The family was gearing up, and life suddenly had hope. They decided to find a place to build a shed first.
Fortunately, there is no urban management here. As long as it is a wasteland, no one will take care of the shack. Ye Xing considered it convenient to do business, so he found a place near the intersection and planned to build a simple teahouse.

Unexpectedly, just after measuring the size, two people walked over shaking hands,
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? What are you doing here?"

Ye Ming hurried over and said with a smile,

"We are from Yuanbao Town, and our family suffered a disaster. The rain, even the elderly and children can't stand it, so we want to build a shack here."

After finishing speaking, he looked back, and it was indeed a barren slope, with the moat behind it.

"Build a shack? There's no such thing as a good thing. Go, stay where it's cool, and don't break ground here."

After finishing speaking, she didn't leave, but just looked at their luggage. Ye Xing understood that this was a scam. In the future, this kind of harassment would be indispensable in doing business. In order to get it done once and for all, she decided to take a gamble.

"We are going to deliver goods to Xiang Tianxia. You see, this is the right card for going to the city. If you live far away, I'm afraid it will miss the business of the gentlemen."

She showed the pair, those guys were extraordinary, especially the big black guy, even the owner of the restaurant was in awe of him, the little gangster was a local, so he should know the depth of this.

Sure enough, the two people looked at each other when they saw the pair of cards, they were obviously a little surprised, they didn't say anything, they just waved their hands and turned to leave.

Ye Xing looked at their backs thoughtfully, and was in a daze when he suddenly heard what his uncle said,
"Xing'er, can we start work?"

"Ah, of course you can. Measure the size first. Dad, go and find out, where can I buy this wood?"

The teahouse must be simple and simple, generally made of light materials such as wood and bamboo.
