Jin Liangyu

Chapter 231 It’s not easy
The children were happy at the village chief's uncle's words, and the village chief's wife frowned.

"Master, the pork will not be cheap this year."

"Don't worry, I still know a little bit about Lao Jin's temper. Even if he lacks meat this year, he won't open his mouth like a lion."

"Oh." After hearing the village chief's explanation, the face of the village chief's wife became much gentler.

Jin Sheng's trip to the northern Xinjiang garrison camp went smoothly, and they heard exciting news there.

General Shen had previously written a book to ask for merit from Uncle Liang and Uncle Liang. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally approved that both uncles have now been promoted to Qianhu.

It's just one official and one deputy. Uncle Liang's deputy Qianhu official is from the fifth rank, and Uncle Liang's deputy Qianhu is from the fifth rank.

Mr. Liang could not imagine that his two sons were promoted so quickly. It is inseparable from all kinds of hardships. Although he is not in front of him, he can still taste various tastes.

Especially where he couldn't see, the two sons and the Tatars were fighting desperately.

Jin Sheng knew something about the achievements of his two brothers-in-law. While he was happy for them, he was also worried about them.

Uncle Liang took his younger brothers to congratulate his eldest brother and younger brother. Liang Tong and Liang Chuan looked at their father with admiration.

General Shen couldn't stand it any longer, so he offered to give the brothers two days off, on New Year's Eve and the first day of the first lunar month.

Hearing the good news, the Liang family present were even happier than the brothers were promoted.

Especially Liang Tong and Liang Chuan, they are happy that their father has become a thousand households. They are even happier when their father has time off to go home for the New Year. He was as happy as a child, considering that Liang Tong was already a father and his child was already five or six years old.

Mr. Liang is the happiest today. Both sons have worked hard and have been recognized by all the soldiers in the northern Xinjiang barracks. This is the greatest glory of their Liang family.

The group reluctantly left the Beijiang barracks. Halfway there, the Liang family wanted to take a shortcut back to the county town, so they waved goodbye to Jin Sheng and the others.

Old man Zhou is even happier today than yesterday. He shook his whip and chatted non-stop with Jin Sheng.

"My life has been worthwhile. I have been to the Northern Xinjiang barracks." Old man Zhou felt even more proud when he thought that Village Chief Yang had never been there.

Jin Sheng turned around and saw him looking like he had never seen before, so he smiled and joked: "I'll put a flying monkey in your pocket, and you'll have to go to heaven now."

"You don't have to give it to the Sky Monkey, I can go to heaven now." After Old Man Zhou finished speaking, he realized that he had let slip and quickly shut up.

Then he looked around again and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no one was around.

Jin Sheng and Zhou Erlang pretended not to see them.

Tang Hu also had something on his mind today, so he kept looking in the direction of the official road in his yard. When he saw Jin Sheng and the others coming back from a distance, he ran to the mountain pass and waited.

It's just that he has been waiting for a long time. Why hasn't his niece and son-in-law come over yet?

Jin Sheng also wanted to go home early, but they were seen by the villagers of Shangyang Village. This villager was particularly interesting. He stopped Jin Sheng first and then ran back.

Jin Sheng was confused, what does this mean?
Just when he was considering whether to leave or not, he saw the villager looking for Village Chief Yang.

Jin Sheng: He seems to understand a little bit.

Fortunately, Village Chief Yang is a quick worker. He shouted to Jin Sheng from a distance: "Old Jin, can you sell some pork to our village?"

"Okay, how many pounds do you want?"

"About two hundred and twenty-five pounds. Lao Jin, can we just have the waistband and not the front trough and the back mound?"

Village Chief Yang was too embarrassed to open his mouth, but every family was miserable, waiting for more profit from buying meat this time.

So no one was willing to buy lean meat, so Village Chief Yang had no choice but to show off his old face and see if Jin Sheng could give him some face.

Jin Sheng was very happy after hearing this. The mother and daughter at home don't like to eat fat meat, they like to eat leaner meat, and they also like to eat ribs.

Village Chief Yang’s proposal was so good that he hurriedly agreed. "Okay, there's nothing wrong with this."

Seeing that Jin Sheng agreed, not only Village Chief Yang was happy, but the villagers who were listening nearby were also beaming with joy.

Striking while the iron was hot, Village Chief Yang asked what the villagers were most worried about: "Lao Jin, how much is a pound of waistband?"

"Twenty-three coins."

"Ah!!" Village Chief Yang and the villagers of Shangyang Village didn't expect that the waistline meat chef sold them for twenty-three cents per catty. They got a big deal.

Jin Sheng asked them again what day they wanted meat, and he brought it to them. Village Chief Yang had previously sought the opinions of the villagers and said that it would be enough to deliver them tomorrow.

The two sides chatted for a few more words before walking back. By the time Tang Hu saw Jin Sheng, it was already a stick of incense later.

"..." It was almost dark when I saw Jin Sheng.

Jin Sheng saw Tang Hu waiting for him and quickly jumped out of the carriage.

"Second uncle."

"Eh."

"Second grandpa."

"Second Uncle Tang."

Zhou Yilang and Old Man Zhou also greeted each other.

"Eh, eh."

After Tang Hu agreed, he talked to Jin Sheng about serious matters with a smile.

"Niece-in-law, can you still get pork chops at your place?"

"can."

"How much does it cost per pound?"

"Buy the whole thing with skin and bones for fifteen cents, and just buy the meat for twenty cents."

Upon hearing this, Tang Hu knew that this was the price paid by the family, and hurriedly said: "Then give my second uncle two meat spoons."

"Row."

"I will ask the boss to drive the mule cart to pick it up with you now."

"Okay." Jin Sheng originally wanted to ask Erlang to deliver it later, but Uncle Tang couldn't wait any longer and asked Tang Zheng to pick it up.

Tonight, I can drink a lot of wine and eat large pieces of meat. Uncle Tang's walking posture has returned to his former arrogance.

The next day, Zhou Erlang drove a carriage to deliver pork to Shangyang Village. It was all loin meat, totaling 227 kilograms.

The extra two kilograms of meat can be regarded as an addition or a loss.

Village Chief Yang and the villagers all expressed gratitude when they heard that Lao Jin had added two more kilograms of pork as head.

Village Chief Yang also took the lead and said: "It's still the old Jin Renyi."

"Yes!" Other villagers also echoed loudly.

Don't underestimate these two pounds of extra meat. With these two pounds of meat, the meat they buy for every household can be weighed high.

Two pounds of pork can make everyone in a village beam with joy. Even Zhou Lang admires his father-in-law's wisdom.

In the following days, Weng and his son-in-law were so busy that they hit the back of their heads.

The news that Chef Jin could obtain pork spread quickly.

Jin Feng drove the donkey cart over in the evening. He also has a son now, and he seems to be much more stable than before.

Jin Feng also knew the tempers of his parents. When meeting, he first asked how his parents were doing, and then got straight to the point.

"Dad, can you get some more pork? I want to make some hard-earned money before the end of the year."

"Hey, my second son also knows how to earn hard-earned money? It's not easy."
