Before he could finish speaking, some villagers were already excited and responded quickly, "Uncle Six, don't your family want to sell corn seeds too? Why don't you sell mine with me? I'm afraid of being deceived!"

Others were reminded and immediately picked up the conversation, "Yes, Uncle Six, please help us find a buyer together. We will just collect the money. If we are deceived, our hard work this year will be in vain!"

"Yes, yes, Uncle Six will bring one to my family!"

"Me too."

The rest of the villagers were not willing to lag behind and started shouting one after another for fear of being left behind.

Mr. Tai and Mr. Tai looked at each other and said, dumbfounded, "I can't get rid of these scoundrels! How old are they? They want me to come forward to sell something. They are waiting for it ready-made!"

Third Master Tai also smiled and advised, "He who can do more work, don't complain! Everyone can trust you, and besides, you are the sixth uncle. If you don't worry, who will?"

Mr. Tai had no choice but to say, "Well, I'll try my best to bring them with me. It would be best if a big family in the city comes to visit. The money is safe and the price is good, so we can all worry less."

Everyone quickly smiled and thanked him, and the matter was settled satisfactorily. Young and old held the money and walked home, as if they were stepping on clouds.

Of course, after they returned home, they started to have a lot of secrets.

After a while, there was a small jar containing silver in the mouse's hole. Before the mouse could see the novelty, it was taken out and stuffed into the chicken coop...

As the old saying goes, if you have food at home, you don’t have to worry.Taijiacun, on the other hand, has money at home and is even more panicked.

But this fear is something that others can’t even envy.

Women from each family were excitedly cooking pancakes on the kang, and when they got up early, they all decided to go to the city.For no other reason than cutting meat to make dumplings and ripping cloth to make new clothes for the hard-working men.

As a result, the shared carriage at the entrance of the village was packed in the blink of an eye.

In this way, there are still seven or eight people who have no place to sit, and they are stamping their feet anxiously.

Tai Sanye, with his hands behind his back and a pipe in his hand, got up early and went around the village for a routine "inspection". When he saw this, he decided to buy another carriage.

The women were extremely happy, chattering to make the old man happy and his head buzzing.

Yang Lihua didn't have anything to buy, she just thought that her son was going to take a nap, so she asked the villagers to go to the snack shop to deliver a message asking her son to come back and stay overnight tomorrow!
When the two carriages pulling the cheerful women set off one after another, the village returned to calm.

Zhuzhu rode the big black horse, accompanied by the big white horse, followed by Sesame Ball, and followed the old man to the Hetao.

Tai Jizu couldn't sit still, so he led his people to build a simple small pool in Hetao.

When Tai Jiye comes back with the cashmere, the women in the village can wash the cashmere in the small pool, and then change the sewage out at night.

In this way, it completely avoids the use of water by people downstream of the river, and prevents sewage from causing trouble to people.

After all, no matter how diligent a person is, they don’t have to wash clothes or carry water for cooking in the middle of the night.

It has to be said that there is a reason why the Tai family's reputation is better, and the more trusted and loved they are by nearby villagers.

He acts thoughtfully and kindly, is not ostentatious and does not bully others. How can people not like this character!

Although the river water in late autumn and early winter has not yet frozen, it is still cold enough.

The villagers have suffered for many years, especially the young man with a strong temper, but they don't find it unbearable at all.From time to time, a joker would catch a small fish and throw it to the shore, while Zhuzhu clapped her hands and shouted with joy.

"Fish, there are fish! Uncle is so awesome!" The big black horse sneezed in disgust. The white horse carefully washed his hooves with river water. Only Sesame Ball cheered and ran around with the fish in his mouth.

The old man gathered dry branches and lit a bonfire, grilling fish for his fat granddaughter while waiting for the villagers to come ashore to keep warm.

The naughty boys in the village saw it from a distance and ran over madly.

This one wants roasted sweet potatoes, that one wants roasted potatoes, and I ran home and turned over carrots and cabbage, planning to bake a smorgasbord.

Zhuzhu followed, holding up a sweet potato in her hand. The boys were afraid that the campfire would burn her, a precious girl, and they were afraid of pushing her outside to cry again. In the end, they could only gather around them and make a human-shaped iron bucket.

The old man looked on and laughed, clicking his pipe and pot from time to time.

At this time, a carriage came up on the dirt road. On the carriage was none other than Manager Min, who came here every few days.

The naughty boys were so happy that they surrounded the carriage before it stopped at the river beach, jumping up and down and shouting, "Uncle Steward, Uncle Steward!"

Manager Min jumped out of the car, smiled and rubbed their heads, and then took out two boxes of snacks from the car. One box was given to the boys to share, and the other box... needless to say, was for Zhuzhu!

Zhuzhu hugged Manager Min's neck and twisted happily, "Uncle Min, Zhuzhu misses you!"

"Hey, hey! Uncle misses you too. As soon as he has free time, he will come to give you some snacks!" Manager Min was coaxed by the fat girl, and his face was about to burst into laughter.

The old man lit another bonfire and asked Manager Min to sit on a stone nearby.

Zhuzhu sat on Manager Min's lap, kicking her little feet happily and eating snacks!

Mr. Tai smiled and said, "It's only been a few days, why are you here again? Isn't the shop busy?"

"Busy!" Manager Min said with a smile, "But I have a man and a boy, so I don't need to keep an eye on him every day. And I came here for business, a good thing!"

Mr. Tai banged his pipe pot and replied, "Let me guess, a lot of people come to you to buy corn seeds?"

"That's right! Uncle is still very good. He guessed it right the first time!" Manager Min took out a list from his arms and said with a smile, "In the past few days, the threshold of my shop will be breached. It's all entrusted to me to work with us." I bought seeds at home. I selected the safe ones and made a list.

"Uncle, take a look. If there are enough seeds in the village and you are willing to sell them at this price, I will go back and tell you. At that time, I will be in the city looking for someone from the bank to help check the money."

Mr. Tai glanced at it, counted the total number of corn seeds, and then nodded.

"The seeds in the village are enough, but this time we need half sorghum and half money. The county government will collect grain taxes soon, and the village has to pay the sorghum and keep some for the winter."

"This is easy to handle. Let me talk to these people when I get back." Manager Min immediately agreed.

The two discussed for a while, and the old man saw that the sun was getting very high, so he asked Manager Min to go home for dinner, but he refused because he didn't want to.

In fact, the dim sum shop was very busy, and he finally found time to come over, but he just refused to take credit.

After sending Guanshi Min away, the old man went to his elder brother to explain clearly. In the afternoon, each family was busy threshing and drying the corns, and did not yawn and fall asleep until midnight.

But it seemed that not long after closing their eyes, everyone was awakened again!
Dangdang Dangdang!
Under the night, the rapid and crisp sound of the copper basin knocking made people stunned.

It seems that the last time I knocked on the copper basin was when the wolves entered the village...
