Madam, go home and farm

Chapter 75 Thoughts
Over there, Puhuang was wandering around in the mountains, and Hong Haoan was not idle either. He first checked the wages with Carpenter Wang, including the house, doors, windows, and furniture. After doing this calculation, there was only one or two taels of money left in his hand. up.Originally, according to Wang Carpenter's intention, it is not necessary to pay all at once, but can be paid within two or three months, but Hong Hao'an doesn't like to owe people, so he still insists.

After Carpenter Wang left, Hong Hao'an frowned and calculated. Before moving, he still needs to ask Mr. Geography to calculate the best date and time. There are really many things that are needed. I don't know how much it will cost silver.In terms of entertaining guests, it is impossible to rely entirely on Puhuang to hunt wild game, which is too dangerous.

Hong Hao'an rubbed the money in his hand, thinking quickly what to do, it was impossible for him to borrow money again, but it would be embarrassing to pay on credit, but this was only limited to the villages, towns and counties are impossible.

How to make money?
The taste of those dried fish has not yet been determined, and he doesn’t know how it is, let alone how much it can be sold for, and he will not take out the braised meat until there is no improvement and no sufficient plan. Thinking, he I remembered the hawthorn seed oil mentioned by Puhuang. Do you want to cooperate with Uncle Xiao?
Hong Haoan unconsciously tapped on the armrest of the wheelchair with his right hand, making a slight "tuk-tuk-tuk" sound. In fact, he didn't like the way of cooperating with others, which was very troublesome, especially this kind of idea-based, profit-oriented approach. Allocation is a big problem.

And no matter how good the relationship is, once it involves interests, it will become unbearable, like a family with only a few properties, and it will become like this. If you cooperate with Uncle Xiao, you may become a stranger in the village in the future.With a decision in his mind, Hong Hao'an felt that he still had to discuss with Puhuang. No matter what, he could persuade her to agree with his opinion. She had the right to know the process and result of the matter.

"Brother An, why are you in a daze?" Hong Haozheng's voice with a smile rang in his ear.

Hong Haoan raised his head with a smile, and turned his wheelchair, "Why don't you come over today if you have time? Sit down, I'll boil some water."

"Brother An, I'm not busy." Hong Hao was busy stopping Hong Hao'an, pulled a low stool and sat opposite him, and said with a smile: "I've been busy with a few shops in the county these days, I think so, Put one of the shops in your name, and you will have an income."

When Hong Hao'an heard this, his face darkened immediately, "Haozheng, what do you mean, even though I can't walk anymore, it doesn't mean I still need you to support me."

Seeing that Hong Haoan was angry, Hong Haozheng was a little anxious, and he didn't know where to put his hands: "Brother An, don't be angry, I didn't mean to look down on you. I just, just..., if I didn't have you back then, I wouldn't have Everything now is just a small shop, if you don't accept it, my conscience will be disturbed!"

Hong Haoan's face looked a little better, but his tone was still serious, "Haozheng, I understand what you mean, but you don't need to always take the previous life-saving grace to heart, you have already paid it back, no If you owe me anything, there is absolutely no need for this."

"It's not so easy to repay the kindness of life-saving. In my opinion, no matter what you use, you can't repay it." Hong Haozheng blushed, increased his volume, and said excitedly.

Hong Haoan shook his head, "You don't understand what I'm talking about. For me, my uncle did it for me to marry my wife, and you paid for the money. For me, this has already been repaid. I am very happy." gratitude."

"I..." Hong Haozheng, who has always been eloquent, didn't know what to say for a moment. Now that he has the ability to give his cousin a better life, why doesn't he want it?

"Haozheng, don't mention this matter anymore, no matter it is a big burden for anyone, let it go, I am living a very good life now, really." Hong Haoan said seriously, he and Hong Hao are brothers, But I don't like this kind of unequal relationship.

Hong Haozheng was a little downcast for a while. He had discussed it with his father before he came. At that time, the uncle of the Hong family directly said that Hong Haoan would not accept it. As expected, he was too self-righteous. After doing business for so many years, he forgot how Getting along with family is the best.

Hong Hao'an patted Hong Haozheng on the shoulder, didn't say much, turned the wheelchair and went to the kitchen to boil water, in addition to entertaining guests, he could also quench his thirst when he came back from cooling the Pu Huang.

Hong Hao'an didn't want to distance himself from Hong Haozheng, so when the water was boiled, the two of them soaked some honeysuckle and drank slowly. They were mainly asking Hong Haozheng about some business matters and the secrets of doing business. His heart is not small, and he also wants to do business on his own. Now that there are ready-made people around, he naturally wants to ask carefully, so that he has a bottom line in his heart.

If he hadn't been injured and disabled back then, he would have quit the Escort in the end to start a small business. What he thinks about now is just to redirect the road to the original direction.

When Puhuang came back, what she saw was Hong Haoan in a daze. There were two porcelain bowls on the table, which contained the honeysuckle she had picked. She went into the kitchen and poured herself a large bowl of water, and she died of thirst. up.

Hong Hao'an told Pu Huang about his refusal of the shop offered by Hong Haozheng, but he was still a little nervous, afraid that she would say he was stupid.

Wiping off the water flowing down her chin, Pu Huang sat on the chair, took a fan and started to fan the wind, Hong Haoan also took a fan to help her fan the wind, and looked at her eagerly, wanting to hear her opinion.

After the heat on his body dissipated a lot, Pu Huang's movements slowed down, he glanced at Hong Hao'an and pressed his chin slightly, "Hmph, if I didn't split up, I would definitely accept it, but now, As you said, you have settled with him."

In fact, Puhuang was bleeding in his heart, and pushed out the money delivered to the door, but what Hong Haoan said, he had her, it was Hong Haozheng and the others' best repayment to him, what else could she say? .It's not that it's a pity, it's just that she will be closer to her goal, and now she's just going according to the original plan.

"Miss, don't be angry, I will work hard to earn money." Hearing the other meanings in Puhuang's words, Hong Hao'an whispered, his eyes were bright, and his face, which has gained a lot of flesh recently, became more rosy .

"Yeah, I believe you." Puhuang nodded, and she didn't want to dampen Hong Haoan's confidence, "By the way, has Uncle Wang come to settle the wages? Is the remaining money enough for a treat?" Fortunately, Mr. Geography's The money has already been paid before, so there is no need to pay again, just prepare a gift.

"It's over, but there's only one tael of silver left, I'm afraid it's not enough for a treat." Speaking of this, Hong Hao'an also frowned, thinking about how to mention the hawthorn seed oil to Puhuang.

Pu Huang didn't think much about it, "It's more than one or two, how many tables do you need for a treat, what kind of dishes each table usually has, and who to invite to help, do you have a good idea? If you don't have enough money, take the remaining stones Sell ​​Erna, catch a goat and sell it in the county, it should be almost done.”

After hesitating for a while, Hong Haoan decided to make it clear to Puhuang, "Lady, I can give you the idea of ​​hawthorn seed oil you told me at that time, just sell it to Uncle Xiao, there is no need to cooperate, and interests are involved There's always going to be too much trouble."

"Huh?" Puhuang tilted his head slightly, and it took a while to realize, "Oh, have you thought about it? If you sell the method to him, you will get a lot less money, and it's only for a while."

"Well, they live in the same village. If they cooperate, they will contribute a lot, and they will complain after a long time, and we will inevitably suspect that they have made fraudulent accounts. We might as well be quicker and avoid future troubles." Hong Haoan admitted that he did not Da wanted to have a tense relationship with the people in the village, after all, he was in a weak position.

"It's up to you, I have no objection." Puhuang is not very good at interacting with the villagers, her thinking is not on the same level as theirs, and it is really hard to rack her brains on how to talk, so she should leave it to the villagers. Hong Haoan can handle it.

Moreover, life is not a novel. It is not so easy to cooperate as you want, it is not as easy as paying money and goods. The longer you stay, the more Puhuang feels this way.

"Also, madam, sir will come to see the house this afternoon and set a date for housewarming, and we need to prepare a thank you gift." Hong Hao'an remembered what Carpenter Wang said, and hurriedly told Pu Huang, afraid that he would forget.

Putting down the cattail fan, Puhuang stretched his waist, "I can save it, let's try the dried fish you made for lunch and see how it tastes?"

"Well, the time is about the same, I'm afraid it's just like the stewed meat, the taste is mediocre, and it's not good." He also looked forward to the taste of the dried fish, "Then, lady, you are busy, I will go to Uncle Xiao's."

"Hey, be careful on the road, take the bamboo hat, and buy some paper money for incense candles when you come back. I guess it will be used on the day of the treat." Pu Huang conveniently took a bamboo hat and put it on Hong Hao'an's head, explaining.

"Lady, I'm leaving." Hong Haoan waved his hand, turned the wheelchair and walked out the door cautiously.

Puhuang turned and entered the house, and began to prepare today's lunch and the afternoon's thank-you gifts, all of which were trivial matters. The weather is sultry and hot, and people tend to be irritable. Fortunately, it is not a special period, otherwise it will be really depressed to death.

For lunch, I braised a hare in soy sauce, steamed two dried fish, and added a pot of pumpkin.

When Hong Haoan came back, his face was red from the sun, and after putting the incense paper money in his arms into an empty basket, he took a purse and handed it to Puhuang, "Lady, here is the silver from Uncle Xiao. You take it, the money for moving and treating guests must be enough, you don’t go hunting animals, it’s too dangerous.”

Puhuang weighed it, and it was about ten or so. He didn't expect Hong Haoan to negotiate once. The Xiao family was so straightforward, didn't they even think about it?Are you not afraid that Hong Haoan will lie to them?Several thoughts ran through my mind, but I didn't ask in the end, because I got the money anyway.

Turning around, he brought two bowls of rice to the table, and handed Hong Haoan a pair of chopsticks, "No hurry, eat first, let's see how the dried fish you made tastes like?"
