Nongmen Jinfeng: Cold-noodled husband and little daughter-in-law

Chapter 478
"Even counting uncles, cousins, and uncles, we don't have enough manpower. It's natural to buy and hire people, but who can guarantee that they are all good? It takes effort to buy people, doesn't it?"

Everyone nodded after hearing this, it was indeed very troublesome, not to mention how busy the third uncle was running around these days, even the uncle is too busy to go home every day.

Even the brothers themselves often have to go out to run errands and cannot concentrate on studying. The sisters do too much chores now and cannot concentrate on making handbags.

Fang Xiaofu himself is not idle, except for the youngest brother, almost everyone in the family is busy.If it spreads and opens shops, it also means that more manpower and energy will be invested.

How do you sell the goods from the workshop at this time?You can't go to the market to set up a stall every day, can you?Therefore, finding a partner is the only way out.

Fang Ziyuan figured it out and heaved a sigh of relief.He was really afraid that Xu and Fang would have conflicts because of the conflict of interests.

"However, our workshop will open at the end of the year at the earliest, and the spring of next year at the earliest." Fang Xiaofu curled his lips, "It's early. Let's not talk about it."

Everyone nodded, understanding Xiao Qi'er's concerns.

"Xiao Qier, we have so many houses in the county, and now they are empty, why not open the workshop first?" Fang Zizhan frowned when he thought that the workshop would not be until the end of the year and the beginning of the year.

They already have many yards in the county, and they can only live in one or two places, and the rest are all empty, which is all money.

"Our houses are all built with kangs, don't push them down?" Fang Zijian was also a little worried when he thought of the repaired yards in the county.To turn it into a workshop, it needs to be repaired again.

How can a house for living people be used directly as a workshop? There must be some reconstruction.

"You don't have to worry about those houses being empty, I'll let them make money after winter comes." Fang Xiaofu grinned, not in a hurry at all.

"Make money?!"

The brothers were shocked.

"Didn't we all repair the kang? What is the purpose of repairing the kang? Isn't it warm in winter and cool in summer? In winter, let's make more wooden lattices on the kang to cook off-season side dishes."

"Out-of-season side dishes? You mean to eat summer dishes in winter?"

"You can string them together in spring and autumn. How can you grow summer vegetables in winter?"

"Isn't it heating up the kang?"

"Oh my god!"

"..."

The brothers started to talk about each other, but Fang Xiaofu just smiled without answering, and ate his breakfast calmly.

Although it is still far away to say that winter is as far away as running to the other side of the earth.But you have to have a vision, don't you?In winter, if there is nothing to do with handbags, they only have workshops and large gardens to make money.

And what is the most lacking in winter food?fresh vegetables.

In this era, there are no greenhouse vegetables, and the four seasons cannot be skewered, so let her break the deadlock.

Although I had never seen a house used to grow vegetables in the countryside when I was a child, and her family was not in the north and did not repair the kang, but it is not uncommon to see vegetable beds covered with film in the field.

Moreover, if the film is covered, it must be released for a certain period of time every day to allow the inside to breathe, otherwise the inner wall of the film will be full of water vapor.Now she uses the house and the heated kang to grow vegetables, and this situation should be alleviated, but it is okay to open the doors and windows every day to let in some air.

It's a pity that she has seen a lot and has a lot of ideas, but after all, she hasn't done it herself, and it may not be successful.Just like the several tofu varieties that are going to be made this time.

When I was young, there was a workshop in the village that made dried tofu, and there was also a workshop that made fragrant dried tofu and sold it in the vegetable market.

During the Chinese New Year, grandma will also adjust the brine at home to make stewed tofu, fermented bean curd, as well as stewed chicken feet, stewed chicken wings, stewed beef, stewed peanuts...

Although there are stewed vegetable products in this era, there are few seasonings and a single variety, and the main ones are braised pig's head, pig's ears, and braised beef. At least she has never seen edamame or peanuts cooked in brine.

Maybe the brine is a bit expensive, so it’s not worth it to cook these cheap snacks.It doesn't matter, let her break this consumption blind spot and open up a new world of lo-mei.

"Xiao Qier, what are you giggling about?" Fang Ziyuan noticed Fang Xiaofu's strangeness, and couldn't help asking curiously, and then looked at the third child strangely, why are these two so stupid?
Fang Zizhan sat lazily aside with one hand resting on his cheek, tilting his head to look at Fang Xiaofu, also with a smile on his face.Why are they both smiling so well?Is there something they don't know?
Fang Xiaofu came back to his senses, he was so embarrassed, he quickly lowered his head and bit the bun, only to find that the bun in his hand had been eaten at some point, the bite was of course empty.

Now the others laughed too.

"Xiao Qi'er likes to wake up and dream recently." It was Fang Zizhan who revealed the truth with one word, and everyone suddenly understood.

"It's fine to dream, don't go so far, you don't even know what you're doing." Fang Ziyuan muttered angrily, "I'll take another bun when I'm done eating."

"Hehe." Fang Xiaofu shrank his neck in embarrassment, and didn't reply to his second brother, obediently took a bun and concentrated on eating.Seeing that she didn't explain what she was thinking just now, everyone stopped asking.

Anyway, it's something to make her happy, otherwise why would she laugh like that.but……

"Xiao Qi'er, you haven't explained clearly about the off-season side dishes, don't whet our appetites." Fang Ziyuan spoke again.

"That's right, the off-season side dishes should not be planted until the winter turns cold, right? Burning the kang to prevent freezing?" Fang Zijian is the one who is most familiar with farm work among the brothers, and understands a little better.

"Well, brother's thinking is correct." Fang Xiaofu nodded, but smiled again, "There is no rush now, we will study that after we have arranged some things here."

"Let's keep this matter a secret for now, and our own family will plant it when the time comes. If everyone knows it, we won't make any money." Fang Xiaofu reminded them after thinking about it.

The brothers nodded quickly. The money-making methods that Xiao Qier came up with were all her own. Naturally, she couldn't tell the outside world. Everyone knows it, so what else do they earn?

"Little Qier, what about our workshop, the yard in the county seat can't be used, so it can only be built in Wuziqiu?" Fang Zijian turned the topic back to the workshop.

"Well, anyway, Wuziqiu is so big and can't grow food, so it can only be used to build workshops, and it's all in one place, so it's easy to manage."

If there is no such a good place, she will have to find another place to build a workshop. At that time, there will be a place in the east and a place in the west, and it will be a dead horse when patrolling.

But she didn't tell them how many workshops will be built and what workshops will be built.The tofu workshop and the oil press workshop alone are enough for them to discuss for a long time. If they tell the whole story, they won't become early birds?
