The best old woman is too fierce, stepping on her ex-husband and beating up her traitorous son!

Chapter 57 Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents

Hearing the commotion outside, Li Xiaoyue also put on some clothes and walked out, "Brother, come in quickly. If you have anything to say, say it slowly."

Uncle Li kicked the two strong men's butts hard and said, "Come in!"

Li Changfu looked carefully and looked puzzled, "Uncle, aren't these the brothers from Wujiacun?"

"They were the ones who actually wanted to destroy our shop in the county town, but I caught them." Uncle Li said angrily, "If it wasn't for the sake of knowing them, I would have sent them to prison long ago."

When Boss Wu heard this, he immediately begged for mercy, "Uncle Li, please let us go, we will never dare to do it again."

Li Xiaoyue saw that the Wu brothers looked familiar, and they must have met them before, "Let's not talk about the issue of whether to spare or not. I would like to ask, what does our opening of a shop have to do with you? Who ordered you to destroy our shop? ?”

Wu Lao Er was relatively naive, making a loud noise and glaring at Li Xiaoyue, "Why does it have nothing to do with you? We two brothers have always made a living by collecting and selling firewood. Some of our regular customers now use your stove and briquettes and don't want our firewood. "

"We brothers have no father, no mother, no land, so we make a living by collecting firewood. Now we can only sell a small part of the firewood every day. When will we be able to save enough money to build a house and marry a wife?"

Hearing this, Li Xiaoyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that she was stealing someone else's way of making money.

Cutting off someone's wealth is like killing one's parents, so it's no wonder these two brothers have evil intentions.How can we talk about morality when life is getting worse?
"Even if you destroy my shop, it won't help. We can open it elsewhere. Besides, it's obvious to all that briquettes are more useful than firewood. You have to admit it."

Boss Wu grimaced and his eyes turned red, "We are anxious just because we know it is better than firewood. No one will buy our firewood in the future and we will not be able to survive."

"Please don't beat us, and don't put us in jail. Since we can't sell firewood here in Lanshan County, let's go somewhere else to sell firewood."

Brother Li didn't want to do anything wrong, so he explained patiently, "Xiaoyue, the father of the Wu brothers, discovered Qi's army 11 years ago and was seriously injured. He insisted on sending letters back and made great achievements, but because of his serious injuries, died."

"For their father's sake, Xiaoyue, don't argue with them. They are all pitiful children, and they are just trying to survive."

Li Changfu couldn't bear it, "Mom, they know they are wrong, let them go."

Li Xiaoyue had never wanted to punish them severely, but now she heard Brother Li and his son pleading and nodded, "Okay, let them go, and don't care about their behavior of destroying the shop, but we can't do this again."

When Mr. Wu and Mr. Wu heard this, they quickly agreed, "Yes, Aunt Li, we don't dare anymore."

Li Xiaoyue thought for a while and said: "Your father is a hero, you can't be bears. You can't sell firewood, but you can also sell briquettes! You can make a lot of money in a day by coming to us to transport briquettes."

"In addition, if you recycle the burned briquettes and exchange ten for one unburned one, you can make money back and forth, which is more than you can make in a day cutting and selling firewood."

Boss Wu was stunned for a moment, with a look of astonishment on his face, "Aunt Li, not only did you let us go, but you also asked us to transport briquettes?"

"Yes! When you go there, you transport briquettes and deliver them to the customers' homes. Then you can recover the burned briquettes from the customers' homes. You exchange ten burned briquettes for one unburned one. One truck can collect at least three hundred briquettes. The burned ones can be exchanged for 30 yuan of briquettes, which is thirty cents."

"If you calculate it carefully and add in the freight charges for bringing goods from us, will you earn more?"

Boss Wu is smarter. According to this calculation, he can earn more than 100 yuan a day, which is much more cost-effective than selling firewood.

He immediately knelt down to Li Xiaoyue and said, "Aunt Li, our brothers are blind, please forgive me. If Aunt Li has something to do in the future, my two brothers will never refuse."

When Wu Laoer saw his elder brother kneeling, he also knelt down.

As long as they can survive in Lanshan County, they don't want to leave their hometown to cut and sell firewood elsewhere and be bullied.

"Okay, don't cry. I'll come tomorrow to buy the goods." Li Xiaoyue looked at the two strong men with a dumbfounded look, crying like a child. "Brother, Changfu, please untie them quickly. It's getting late, let's let them go." They should go home early."

Brother Li and Li Changfu released the Wu brothers.The two Wu brothers thanked him again and again before saying goodbye and leaving.

"There were outsiders just now, so I didn't have the nerve to ask!" Brother Li frowned slightly, "Even for Old Man Wu's sake, there is no need for you to agree to exchange burned briquettes for unburned briquettes!"

Li Changfu was also very puzzled and scratched his head, "Yeah, that thing is useless. Mom, didn't we give the Wu brothers free money?"

Li Xiaoyue shook her head, "Brother, Changfu, crush the burned briquettes, mix in some soil, and bake them in a brick kiln, and you can make very good bricks!"

Cinder can also be used as a good ecological fertilizer for raising succulents, and it can also be used for road construction, which has many benefits.

Hearing this, Brother Li was stunned, "No wonder dad wanted to help you build a house some time ago. You said you had to wait. Are you planning to use these baked bricks to build a house?"

Li Xiaoyue nodded and agreed happily, "Yes, brother! When the time comes, we will set up a few brick kilns on the barren hillside to the west of our village to burn bricks."

“This not only saves money on buying bricks, but also makes those who use briquettes feel they are getting an advantage and are more willing to buy from us.”

"There are many people like the Wu brothers who sell firewood. They have no way of making money and their lives are unsustainable. There is no other way."

"What we do business with is harmony and wealth. Since it can be a win-win situation, there is no need for us to do things too badly."

Brother Li thought for a moment, nodded, and agreed with Li Xiaoyue's approach.

"The most indispensable thing for our border is young strong men. When the war comes, these people will be of great use."

“Even if they don’t dare to trouble us in the future, if they move to other places, it will be a loss to Blue Mountain County.”

Li Xiaoyue was convinced, "Yes, brother. The Wu brothers will come over tomorrow and ask them to help spread the word. There will be many people working by then, and we will be able to free up manpower to build the brick kiln."

Brother Li smiled, "Okay! What I thought was a difficult matter turned out to be a good thing immediately in your hands."

"With these people's publicity, more and more people in Lanshan County will definitely use briquettes, and our business will grow bigger and bigger."

Li Changfu is also very happy. Now his family can earn more than 30 taels of silver every day, and it continues to increase as time goes by.

The good news spread quickly through the Wu brothers.

Those who made a living by chopping and selling firewood, who had originally angrily cursed the Li family, all praised him, came over to transport briquettes, and purchased the burned briquettes.

Their income has greatly increased, and at the same time, the pressure on Lijiacun has been relieved.

Thanks to the promotion of these people, soon every household in Lanshan County was using briquettes.

After a whole month, it was time to pay wages.

Although Li Changle is young, she has already planned how to use her wages.

Since the morning, she has been following Li Xiaoyue with her niece and nephew like little tails.

"Mom, how much money have we earned this month? When will we be paid?"
