Chapter 24

There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. This sentence is true.

The next day, the shrew from the Huang family brought Huang Maozi to the Lin family to make an apology. She kept saying that she was too stupid, and that she was a mother who competed with several children. She also gave eight eggs, saying that it was for the four baby make up.

Carpenter Li also came to the door in person, saying that the price increase was due to his mother-in-law's nonsense.

As for the matter of cutting wood to make furniture for the refugees, all the villagers remained silent and there was no movement.

The faces of Mr. Lin and Lin Jiadong were full of busy joy again.

Wang Gang traveled hundreds of miles around Qingshui County with a carriage and money, and collected a large amount of wool.Also brought back a dozen "exclusive offer" contracts.Indicate that within three years, the wool will only be provided to the Lin family and not to other families.Lin Xiaoning looked at the contract and praised Wang Gang for being smart. Wang Gang said blankly, "Young master told me that it was the second lady's idea. It must be for the money. We can't let people preempt the materials."

"This big brother is really a good man that you don't see in a hundred years. He knows how to tell Wang Gang these things quietly. He thinks carefully, and he can hunt and kill chickens. He is really a rough and fine man. You must find a good wife for him. Find yourself a good sister-in-law." Lin Xiaoning thought with a smirk.

The two rooms of the school are now temporarily turned into temporary workshops, one for spinning and one for dyeing.

In the village, including those 99 people, all the women who can spin thread are spinning thread.

All women who can dye are dyeing, only dyeing four colors, red, pink, blue and black.

Wool is spun into thread. This is the first time I heard that, in the past, the fur was not always peeled off to make a jacket?But the Lin family goes to the city every now and then and has a lot of experience, so we will follow suit.Anyway, the Lin family accepts all the printed sweaters and trousers, and the price is still high. A set of clothes and trousers costs 200 renminbi, and a set can be printed in two or three days with quick hands. I really dare not think that women and girls can make money like this.

Ingenious women and girls gather together to play sweaters, woolen pants, gloves and hats.What did the second girl of the Lin family think? With just a few sticks cut, the spun thread can be made into clothes and trousers.What a novelty, the upper body is very warm and light, and a single coat is put on over it, which is not at all bulky and bulky like a cotton jacket.

The village head now has three or two months of money a month, and he walks up and down in the temporary workshop full of joy all day long, thinking: "Now I understand what that girl said 'the village head is also an official', the village head should That's the right way to look, Lizheng is sullen, I'm not afraid of him, now the whole village listens to me, leading them to make money, can you not listen to me, hmph."

Lin Xiaoning and his elder brother found a housemate in the county seat, and two days later, they spent 300 taels to buy a shop with a small backyard on East Street.The shop used to sell ready-made clothes, and the business was mediocre.

Going to the county government office to handle the transfer, the county magistrate Hu smiled and said, "Girl, girl, why did you think of buying a shop?"

Lin Xiaoning smiled and handed over a basket of strawberries and a pack of panax notoginseng powder: "Master Hu, don't you blame me for giving those 99 people to me? I don't know how much they can eat. It's like being released from a starvation prison." It seems that my family has been poor. More than half of them are women, so I set up a shop and do some women's work to sell to supplement the family."

"Ghost girl, it's so pitiful, if you really make your family poor, where can you get the money to buy the shop? This fruit is too little, so I will send more next time. The master who sent it the first time competes with me to eat it. It’s gone, I feel refreshed after eating it, it’s really a good fruit.”

"No matter how delicious the fruit is, it will be damp. Adults can't eat too much, just try something fresh, don't be greedy. This bag is notoginseng powder, which is good for your health. Swallow a small spoonful of warm water every day for a month, to ensure your health Strong as an ox, walking like flying, young at five or six years old, send someone to my house to pick it up after serving it."

"Smelly girl, she's as strong as a cow, I don't know how to pick a nice one to say."

"My lord, I'm a girl who farms the land. Seeing Niu Jingui, don't you think you are precious? I have made a plan for this medicine powder. You must remember to eat it."

"Hehe, I know you love me, girl. Come, come, go to the study, we two have a good chat, master, you and Jiadong will handle the transfer."

Lin Jiadong patted his head shyly when he heard Magistrate Hu calling him so affectionately.

After leaving the county office, Lin Xiaoning hesitated for a long time, and asked: Well, Wang Gang, where is the place to buy people?

Seeing Lin Xiaoning's expression, Wang Gang gave a rare smile: "Is Second Miss going to buy someone, a man or a woman?"

Lin Xiaoning suddenly felt stupid, buying someone is normal in this age, so she cleared her throat: "If you want to buy a woman, you will be able to settle the accounts. I plan to make this shop into a women's business, so naturally a female shopkeeper is indispensable. "

"Miss, don't you want to be the shopkeeper?" Wang Gang asked suspiciously.

"Idiot, miss, I'm a landlord. The landlord buys land and collects rent. I don't want to be a shopkeeper. I live in this small shop. What's the point? It's better to farm the land."

"Then why don't you ask the women among the refugees, there is a woman surnamed Fu who will settle accounts."

"That girl from the Fu family, the 14-year-old one, thin?"

"Exactly."

"But I want to buy people. Does the buyer know that the deed of sale is in my hands. The girl from the Fu family is now a villager, and the villagers are free. I can't buy them."

"Miss, you didn't ask, how do you know she is not willing to sell herself?" Wang Gang replied.

Lin Xiaoning stared at Wang Gang: "Wang Gang, you mean she is willing to sell herself?"

"The woman from the Fu family has only a four-year-old brother and grandma. She has no father or mother, and the family has no labor force. If the young lady is willing to buy her to look at the shop, I believe she is willing."

"But the girl from the Fu family is too young and a little shy, how can she see this shop well."

"In addition, the grandma of the Fu family can see this shop well. The grandma of the Fu family is 45 years old. She can read a few words, and the daughter of the Fu family can also read a few words. She is not a farmer, but a small family. She used to set up a stall. , selling small items such as flowers, wood hairpin embroidery, etc. Later, the Fu family couple wanted to make it big, but they were tricked, owed money and threw themselves into the river, and when the Fu family woman was forced to marry by the wicked, Grandma Fu took them The siblings are here." Lin Jiadong interjected.

"Brother, do you know about the Fu family?" Lin Xiaoning asked.

Lin Jiadong's face was reddish, and he looked embarrassed.

Lin Xiaoning looked at his eldest brother, his heart moved slightly, and suddenly he understood: "Brother, how about we buy the woman from the Fu family?"

Lin Jiadong bowed his head and remained silent.

Lin Xiaoning snickered and asked, "Is it a buy or not?"

Lin Jiadong said: "Why do you have to buy someone's house to visit the shop, and you can't visit the shop if you don't buy it."

"If she is from my Lin family, she can come to the shop if she doesn't buy it, but he is not from my Lin family. Why don't I let the villagers come to the shop? We want to make money. When the villagers see our shop making money, they have to trouble."

"Miss Fu is not that kind of person."

"Hahaha, big brother, if you turn Miss Fu into a member of the Lin family, isn't that justified?"

"Let's go back and talk about it, you girl, you don't know how to blush when you say these things, and you laugh out loud on the street, you don't look like a girl." Lin Jiadong pointed at Lin Xiaoning's forehead, pretending to be angry.

Lin Xiaoning continued to smile: "Brother, you are the elder brother. Of course you have the final say on the business of the shop, so you don't have to go back and talk about it, hahaha."

Wang Gang also snickered.
