The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 180 Hei Bulaji’s Eggs
As soon as the first lunar month came out, everything thawed, and every family in the village was busy with the spring work of plowing and fertilizing the fields. Li Jihe originally got two and a half acres of farmland from his family, and later bought some from Li Rongsong. Now there are three acres of paddy fields and seven acres of dry fields.

If their family didn't have such arrangements, it might be possible for a family of four to work on ten acres of land, but now they can't live without anyone at home. He is recovering from his injuries, so he can barely do simple carpentry work. He has to work hard in the fields, and his family is tired. is not allowed.

So after much thought, Li Jihe simply hired villagers to farm the ten acres of land.

It is said that the hired people are more closely related to each other, but now every family in the clan has someone working in the workshop, some even have two or three people, and there are also few people in the family who own the land, so there is no way they can take over the ten acres of land.

In order not to delay the farming work, Li Jihe hired dry fields and paddy fields separately. Three acres of paddy fields were hired to one family, and seven acres of dry fields were hired to a family with many strong people but few laborers. The two families helped. Planting rice and corn in the fields, waiting for the harvest in the autumn, and then paying them the corresponding amount of money is almost the same as the landowner giving the fields to the tenants for planting.

However, this is much better than the land owned by tenants, who have to pay 60% of the rent, which is equivalent to working in vain, but if the year is bad, they will have to pay back the rent.

When cultivating the Li family's fields, they just plant and harvest. Even if the times are bad, they will still be paid. Isn't this a good thing?

Therefore, these two families guarantee that they will plant well and never waste their fields. As long as there is no natural disaster, the harvest will be more than less!

Now that there are people in the field, Li Jihe doesn't have to worry about it. He can only take a leisurely stroll to see how the planting is going.

He is not worried, but Father Li is worried. Although he is recovering from his illness, he is not bedridden. Doctor Hong also said that letting him go out more and exercise more is also good for his health. No, he does it every day As I walked around in the morning and evening, I always wanted to go to my family’s field to see how the second son’s field was being cultivated, and also to see how the eldest grandson’s field was being cultivated. None of the adults went back to farming by themselves. You have to look at it to feel at ease.

The villagers from the two farming families had originally made up their minds to farm well. Seeing that Father Li often wandered around the fields, he was a good farmer, so they worked hard and worked hard in the fields. If a blade of grass grows, it will be removed immediately, and it will be fertilized without hesitation. This is called careful care.

In this way, during the autumn harvest, one acre of grain was harvested several liters more than in previous years. This was also the result of careful tending. When Li Jihe saw that they had done well, he continued to use the land for farming the next year. They come to plant the seeds, but this is a matter for later.

Now in the middle of February, Pomegranate is counting the days. The first batch of preserved eggs is almost ready, so he takes out a jar, taps the yellow mud off the mouth of the jar, and takes out a mud egg from it, carefully. He knocked off the mud wrapped around it, revealing the blue-gray egg inside.

After washing the egg, I cracked the eggshell and peeled off a dark and translucent egg. If I looked carefully, I saw there were patterns on it, which looked like pine flowers, which was very rare.

Having seen the salted duck eggs that came out a few days ago, Song and Li Xiangli were amazed when they looked at the preserved eggs. They couldn't understand how the eggs could become like this. It’s all black, can you still eat it? Isn't this broken?
Then I looked at the pomegranate and took out a slightly smaller one and knocked it out. It was crystal clear yellow. The yellow inside when cut was different from the blue-black color of the previous one, but similar to the yolk of the previous salted duck egg. I couldn't help but be even more surprised.

Pomegranate told them that one was made from duck eggs and the other was made from eggs, so the colors would be different, and then he let them taste both kinds of preserved eggs first.

They both tasted it one by one and had different opinions on it. Mrs. Song liked this unique taste very much, but Li Xiangli was not used to it.

The taste is completely different from that of salted duck eggs, and the color doesn't look very pretty either.

In this way, Mrs. Song couldn't help but worry about whether the preserved eggs would be easy to sell.

Pomegranate couldn't help but smile and said: "Everyone has their own preferences for radish and green vegetables. My eldest sister doesn't like the taste, but my mother thinks it's delicious? As long as some people like it, then I don't have to worry about selling it."

After checking that there was nothing wrong with this batch of preserved eggs, Pomegranate followed Li Jizhong and his son into the city early the next morning, dragging these jars of preserved eggs and other goods.

It has been nearly a month since Li's Specialty Shop opened. The business is not booming every day, but it is also very stable. Just as Pomegranate predicted, the net income can be a few dollars every day, and some days it can even reach about a penny. . Li Jizhong and his son also send goods to the city every two days.

Now that there is this specialty shop, the meat floss and salted egg yolk ordered by Xinglongzhai and Liu Dong's family are also delivered to the specialty shop first, and both parties directly ask people to go to the specialty shop to pick them up, which is a lot more convenient.

Even this wooden box is taken into the city once every fifty made.

Entering the city early in the morning, the time to arrive at Lingshui Street is neither too early nor too late. It is basically the same every time. It is almost noon, and the people buying food have already finished their shopping and gone home. There are no customers in the shop at the moment.

Li Rongyu came to help move the goods into the warehouse, and Pomegranate called Li Jizu to come and see the preserved eggs, and let them all taste them before discussing pricing.

The salted duck eggs served a few days ago were sold for four cents each. They were soft, salty, fragrant, oily and delicious. They were welcomed by many customers. The business has been relatively stable these days.

The preserved eggs and pomegranate eggs are priced at four cents each, while the duck eggs are priced at three cents each.

Li Jizu couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when he saw that the preserved egg was peeled off and turned black. Isn't it tempting to buy it?

Pomegranate told him to just recommend it to others and let the guests taste it first. If they like it, they will buy it. If they don't like it, don't force it.

She also specially taught Li Jizu how to prepare the sauce. When tasting it with others, the taste will be even more flavorful when the sauce is dipped in it.

Li Jizu tasted it carefully and aftertaste in his mouth, he felt that it should still be marketable, so he couldn't help but nod.

After lunch, Li Jizu was about to share the ten days' accounts with Pomegranate on a plate. Pomegranate waved his hand and said we would talk about it in the evening, and immediately took Li Jizhong out of the car. .

She inquired and learned that there was an old pottery kiln on the outskirts of Dongcheng. This time she went there with the intention of asking about the water pipes.

The fields have all thawed. The tribesmen have helped in the past few days, clearing up the homestead and tamping the land. Now it's just time to start construction.

She has already contacted the bricklayers, the same ones who built their house last time, and they have agreed to come in a few days.

Before that, she had to finalize the water pipe matter.

All the way to the eastern suburbs, I asked about this pottery kiln. Shiliu met the owner of the pottery kiln, handed over the drawings, and asked him whether he could produce such pottery products.

No, the owner of the pottery kiln frowned when he saw the drawing, "What is this? A vase? It doesn't look like it! With all due respect, our pottery kiln has never fired this kind of thing. I'm afraid it won't work. You still Find another home.”

This kind of thing, which looks like a vase but is the same size at the front and back but empty at both ends, should not be difficult to bake, but their pottery kiln has never fired before, so he did not dare to take this business rashly, lest it be ruined. Shop sign.

When Shiliu heard this, she couldn't help but feel regretful, but she didn't say much. She turned back to the city and asked someone to help inquire about other pottery kilns.
