Chapter 560 Already in Contact

She told the story that the children's coming to eat added a lot of expenses to the courtyard, and she was willing to bear some of the costs, and the village elder laughed when he heard it.

"Xiao Qi'er, you are such a silly girl who is afraid of other people's disadvantages. Don't worry, we are also discussing it. If those children want to come and eat, they can eat, anyway, they are all children of our village."

"Of course the cost cannot be borne by those families. Therefore, the village plans to observe for a few more days, calculate the total daily cost, and then allocate some from the village's public account."

"Yeah, when these hungry boys come, it's almost time to open the fifth batch of tables. It's okay for everyone to be busy, and I feel sorry for letting them bear the cost. The public account should take the money."

Another elder Fang said with a smile.They were calculating how much income each of those families would get after deducting the approximate cost just now, so they can't let them work in vain.

Fortunately, the main food of the peasant households is grown in their own land, and the meat is also raised at home, and the fish is directly caught from the river, unlike the people in the city who have to buy everything.

Therefore, this cost is actually not as scary as imagined.

"Alright then, let's arrange it like this." Seeing this, Fang Xiaofu naturally wouldn't do any more work for herself, but she still said another thing.

"However, our family often has brothers coming over for dinner, so I'll just sell my own. Besides, my brother also eats here these days, as well as Xiao Rui and others, and my cousin..."

"They can't eat much, Xiao Qi'er, don't go out with us, just do it like this." The village elder waved his hand disapprovingly, "Even if you fill up the yard here, it will cost you a few dollars. money."

The ingredients they produce and supply themselves are large, and the cost is naturally greatly reduced.On the contrary, Xiao Qi'er, who shouldn't have spent any more hiring wages, spent a sum of money to hire people to do things, which greatly reduced the workload of selecting people.

She has already paid for this money, how can she be allowed to pay for food again?
"Okay, Xiao Qi'er won't say anything, I'll come here for dinner another day, and see why those little brothers are all running here." Seeing that Fang Xiaofu was talking about this, He stopped insisting and started laughing instead.

"You are welcome to come anytime. Even if you didn't say hello to the kitchen in advance, the kitchen cooks one batch after another every day, so I won't be afraid of starving you."

The village elder laughed out loud, as if he was cooking.

Fang Xiaofu also laughed, and after chatting a few more words about the situation here, he went out to Wen Haotian's small courtyard.As soon as he walked in, he saw Xiaoqian was feeding the birds in a big cage.

"Huh? This is a pigeon? Carrier pigeon?" Fang Xiaofu immediately ran over with interest, and leaned in front of the cage to look at the four pigeons that sometimes walked two feet, sometimes stood still and only shook their heads.

They all have snow-white feathers, and they are petite and vigorous. Sometimes they turn their heads to look at the person in front of the cage, and sometimes they lower their heads to peck a few times in the sink.

"It's so cute!" Fang Xiaofu couldn't help being amazed when he saw it.She stretched out her slender jade palm and waved it towards the cage, "Hello, how are you? My name is Xiao Qi'er, what's your name?"

"Hmm. Cough." A muffled laugh came from behind.When Fang Xiaofu turned his head, he saw that his elder brother was pressing his fist to his lips, trying to hide the traces of him smiling.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Fang Xiaofu blinked, then stood up straight, and squinted at Wen Haotian with a coquettish expression.

"Uh, this... Ah, Xiao Qi'er, I'm also here to see the pigeons."

The corner of Wen Haotian's mouth twitched, he turned his head to look around a few times, and by the way, stared away Xiaoqian and Xiaolin who were giggling, and finally made him think of a reason.

"Oh, when did my brother create these pigeons? I didn't see it last time." Fang Xiaofu asked curiously with his head tilted.

"Xiaoqian brought it back to the bookstore yesterday when Xiaoqian went back to the county to pick up Lin's family. I plan to stay here until I finish writing the first book. When the bookstore has something to deal with, I will contact you with pigeons so that there will be no delay."

It turned out to be the case.

I didn't expect my brother to be so addicted to books. At the beginning, he could calmly talk and try to write, but after one night, he had to stay for another three days, and now he wrote the first book again...

But she is naturally very happy that her brother can stay here for a long time, and she can come over to talk to him from time to time, chatting about business.

But they didn't talk for long at all, and a group of people walked in outside the courtyard.Fang Xiaofu turned his head to look over, suddenly surprised.What's the matter with these book-readers with scrolls in their hands?
"Mr. Wen, the boys are here to disturb you again." The leader is a scholar who is about the same age as the eldest brother. Fang Xiaofu has some impression that he is the grandson of Fang Qi's grandfather's family, and his name seems to be Fang Zihao.

"It's okay, you go sit in the living room first, I'll come over later." Wen Haotian said with a smile, without any airs.Everyone went to the hall.

"Brother?" Fang Xiaofu looked at Wen Haotian in surprise.

"The teenagers know that I live here these days, and they come to talk to me about academic matters every day. It takes about half an hour to an hour. Today is the second day."

Wen Haotian lowered his voice and approached Fang Xiaofu to explain quietly, and then said: "They all come at this time, Xiao Qi'er can change the time when he looks for me next time, after all, we are brothers and sisters, it's not easy to let others wait."

Fang Xiaofu curled his lips, nodded, and said unhappily: "Then I'll go back first, I won't be here today, I'm going to be a guest at Daliu Village tomorrow, my aunt's newborn daughter's full moon banquet, I'm afraid I'm going to finish dinner I just came back, and I’m not coming anymore.”

"Well, come over the afternoon the day after tomorrow. Let's talk about the outline of the story. I'm already in contact. I think there will be news in a few days. Let's discuss the specific operation plan first."

"Well, my brother has been in the bookstore for a long time, and he must have accumulated a lot of experience. You can do it as you see. Xiao Qier only provides outlines and suggestions, and doesn't care about anything else."

Fang Xiaofu stuck out his tongue, and put all the burden back on Wen Haotian with a smile.

This was originally a way to make money for her brother, and she didn't want to get too involved, and she didn't plan to collect money.If she participates too much, then brother will definitely have to give her money again.

"Let's talk about it then." Wen Haotian smiled deeply, and did not express his opinion.

Fang Xiaofu gave him a blank stare, turned around and walked out of the yard without even saluting to leave.And when I got home, I ran to Fang Zizhan's house and told about the students here asking my brother for advice.

"Ah? Those guys are too cunning, they actually took advantage of Brother Wen!" Fang Zizhan suddenly became angry.

"Brother voluntarily lets others take advantage, what can we do?" Fang Xiaofu shrugged helplessly.
