Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 260

Xiuyao hurriedly brought the account book and abacus, so he took out the list, and Ji Dali saw it and hurried forward to collect it.Qi Feng's eyes turned slightly, his dark eyes were unfathomable, like those kind of bottomless ancient wells, Ji Dali shivered in fright, and hurriedly withdrew.

Qi Feng gave Xiuyao the manifest and the money.

Xiuyao looked at it, and it turned out to be 30 taels and [-] yuan.

Simply - profiteering!
However, she soon realized that it was because of Qi Feng. If it wasn't for his relationship, others would not be able to make money so easily, otherwise the whole world would be full of candy makers.

Thinking about it this way, she said: "We agreed, I'll give you [-]%. But I think I should give you [-]% or half." Joining the Feng family, I'm afraid she can only get [-]% or [-]%. After all, selling beets is worth a penny. two catties.Even if the Feng family's shop does export, it will definitely receive the goods and then sell them, and will not cooperate with her in the form of sharing.

Just look at that glove, fans will know.

She sold it to them at a higher profit than the cost price, but they could earn several times and dozens of times in return.But Second Grandma Feng thanked her for the money, and she was still very grateful. She didn't intend to share the money from Feng's family in the first place.

Qi Feng said with a smile: "Just [-]%."

But Xiuyao said: "If you make some connections, I'm afraid it will be more, maybe [-]%." She gave him ten taels of silver.

Qi Feng looked at her, "This is not [-] percent."

Xiuyao pouted and feigned anger, "Are you settling accounts with me?"

Qi Feng's expression changed immediately, and he said seriously: "Don't dare." He quickly picked up the bank note.

Only then was Xiuyao satisfied, and happily put away the money, and then made an account. Qin Dafu also came to talk with Qi Feng and have dinner later.

Xiuyao talked to them for a while, and said: "Father, Qi Feng, next year I think this place will be a sugar workshop exclusively. If the farmers don't have enough sugar, they can only buy caramel from the big households."

Qi Feng heard the words: "I have sent someone to send a letter. When the time comes, I will contact you with sugar in the south. In addition, there are beets in the west and north, which are more than here. They grow more there, so it is cheaper."

Xiuyao was overjoyed and said, "That's very good."

But she thought about the problem again, "The strength of your feet is very important, and the shipping cost is a big one." If the business gets bigger, the walking distance will become a problem. Animals, carts, handlebars, etc. are not under the control of my family. of.

Sometimes the shipping cost of the shipment has to catch up with the goods themselves.She is rare now, but it is just a passing on, so I can't feel it.When there are more goods and you have to bear them yourself, I'm afraid it will be a big problem at that time.

Qi Feng said: "Don't worry about this, I know a cargo team, and I will introduce it to you when the time comes. There are both land and water, no trouble."

Qin Dafu asked curiously, "Brother Qi, you know everything about what you do."

Qi Feng said with a smile: "Uncle Qin, I didn't study, I just make a living, and I know a little about people from various religions." How can he say that he has to make a living after his father's death, and dare to play around since he was a child? I must think he is a bastard who does not do his job properly.

Xiuyao admired: "But I think you can write."

Qi Feng was a little embarrassed, his cheeks were slightly red, "That was taught by my father when I was young, and I don't study now."

Xiuyao immediately said seriously: "You are so capable, how can you not study? If a person does not study, his vision, ability and success will be limited."

Qi Feng was shocked and stared at her blankly. The haze in his heart for many days suddenly seemed to be smashed away by a big rock, and he suddenly became enlightened and extremely transparent.So that's the case?

Because of not reading?Knowing too little, so no matter how capable you are, to a certain extent, you still feel powerless, or you are rejected by others and cannot be reused?
Why didn't he think of it?
Xiuyao and Qin Dafu looked at him blankly, but his eyes suddenly sparkled, and his cheeks became more rosy, they thought he was bewitched and were shocked.

Qi Feng couldn't help being overjoyed, all the coldness in his eyes dissipated, and he said with a smile: "Thank you very much, Yaoyao's words are better than ten years of reading. I also want to read some books."

Xiuyao smiled and said, "If you want to read, it's not easy, just read."

Qi Feng said that Mr. is a problem. If there is no good Mr., it is better not to read the book.

Xiuyao agrees with him, sometimes students follow the teacher and teach by precept and example, especially at this time it is a teacher-student relationship, that is absolute.She couldn't help but said: "Mr. Ren from my grandfather's village is really good. If you have time, you might as well follow him to read."

"Yangliu Village," Qi Feng smiled, "Well, let me think about it."

After talking about this, and talking about the three puppies, Xiuyao took them all out and put them on the kang, Xiao Hei looked at the surrounding environment and people coolly and probingly.Xiao Huang stared blankly at the fairy on the wall, while Xiao Bai bit the quilt and pillow.

Qi Feng taught Xiuyao a few gestures and commands, all of which were the most basic and simple, and acceptable to the three puppies, and she had to figure out the rest by herself.

Xiuyao tried it, although Xiao Hei listened and was a little disdainful, Xiao Bai didn't hear it at all, and Xiao Huang didn't understand it at all.

But Qi Feng did it again, his eyes froze, and the three puppies sat down in unison, looking at him obediently.

Xiuyao really admired her so much, if the little sheep saw it, she might not know what to do.Xiuyao thought, if he goes to study and stay with Xiao Yanger, it's better to teach Xiao Yanger some kung fu and exercise.In order not to be like those ancient scholars who didn't work hard and didn't know the five grains, reading ruined the body, and made everyone weak.

After dinner, Qin Dafu wanted him to stay. It was already dark, and although there was a moon outside, it was too cold in the twelfth lunar month, and it was too cold to drive at night.What's more, he saw that Qi Feng was only wearing a thin padded jacket, not a big padded jacket outside. If he was riding a horse, it would naturally be colder.

Qi Feng insisted on leaving, so Qin Dafu hurriedly asked Liu to take out the big sheepskin jacket he had just made that he was willing to wear during the Chinese New Year, and he handed it to Qi Feng, "Brother Qi, put this on, the wind is hard at night , deathly cold."

Qi Feng hurriedly refused, but Xiuyao said: "You should wear it, it's too cold." She was wrapped up swollen in winter, it was because the earth dragon was burned at home, otherwise she was not sure what would happen.Every time I see Qi Feng is wearing such little clothes, he is not afraid of the cold?

Seeing them looking at him with so much concern, Qi Feng felt warm in his heart, and said, "Thank you." Qin Dafu told him to put it on quickly, then sent him out personally, and didn't come back until he was seen disappearing at the intersection.

After a few days, Ji Dali finally left, and the Chinese New Year was about to come. Except for the breeding farm, everyone else stopped working, and everyone had a rest.

Qin Xian's school went home for the New Year holiday, but Qin Yang had to wait for the New Year to come back.

On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, every household has to be busy, after all, the whole year is for these few days.

Although the family has money, the Liu family still insists on making pastries by themselves, saying that this is a Chinese New Year tradition and they cannot ask others to do it for them, so Xiuyao and the others must help in person.The hard noodles are kneaded vigorously, and the noodles are folded in, just to make a strong big pastry.

While busy with work, there was the sound of clappers outside the door, and then stopped outside the gate, Xiao Hei, who was making trouble on the kang, heard it, jumped down and ran out screaming, Xiao Bai was still running with one of Xiuyao's shoes in his mouth After going out, Xiao Huang lay on the window and looked out in a daze, so anxious that she could only slip into Xiuyao's arms.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu hurriedly said: "Yaoyao, stop busying yourself." This is the big pastry of the Chinese New Year, and the three puppies are poking around here, not to mention unclean, and not dignified at all.

When Xiurong heard this, she bared her teeth at Xiuyao, and Xiuyao went downstairs.

The shoes were taken away by Xiaobai, so he had to wear the beautiful ones. When he went out, he saw that it was Liu Yan.

His head is more majestic and mighty, and he is really rich.

Liu Yan laughed and said, "I guess your pigs should be sold."

Xiuyao smiled and said, "It's been sold for a long time. If you didn't come a few days ago, I thought you didn't want it. So I sold it."

Liu Yan insisted: "Impossible, I'll go and see." He went to the farm familiarly.

With a cry, Xiao Hei went up and bit his trouser leg. Xiuyao hurriedly stopped it, and smiled at Liu Yan: "You are really getting smarter, let's go, let's show you. If you don't want it, we still wonder if you don't want it." Come, don't do my business anymore."

Liu Yan smiled and said, "Unless I die, how is that possible."

Xiuyao said "Bah bah" a few times, "Say it quickly."

Liu Yan said with a smile: "We butchers don't shy away from this."

But Xiuyao said: "In my house, follow the rules of my house."

Liu Yan immediately said: "Oh, happy new year, happy new year, live a prosperous life, eat and drink well and live a long life."

Only then did Xiuyao laugh, she had already been educated by the Liu family to obey the rules.

Liu Yan was very happy when he saw those pigs. He said to Xiuyao, "Yaoyao, you should take a look in the next year. Don't raise so many pigs for now."

Xiuyao said: "I also have this plan. In the coming year, it is said that we will popularize fanmai, a kind of coarse grain, which can be eaten by people and fed to pigs. I am afraid that there will be more pigs raised by then. Even if they don't raise more, the family will If there are three or four heads, that’s not a lot.”

Liu Yan groaned, "Is this the reason?" He patted his big thick head, and the flesh on the back of his neck trembled, "Oh, so this is the reason. I was thinking that I had some secret news, so I came to tell you. But that spring You can still grow stubble, anyway, I have rounded up your pigs. It doesn’t matter if you raise more, I only want your pigs.”

"That's not going to work. The business can't be blocked. You also want it from other houses. I can grow a crop next spring, and then I will reduce it a little bit. And let me tell you, it's just a matter of the past two years. People began to feel that It is fresh, and there will be less pigs in the future, and a family should basically raise two pigs."

A pig eats a lot of food a year, and the appearance of that wheat is actually mainly to solve the rations of people, and it has nothing to do with pigs.

Liu Yan has always admired her, and he naturally believed what she said.

In addition to selling pigs from Xiuyao and Lao Liu's family, he also sold vermicelli from Lao Liu's family, all of which were sold in other provinces.However, this kind of vermicelli began to be available in other provinces, and he didn't want to tell Xiuyao that her vermicelli was better than others', and they only produced vermicelli in winter, and they didn't have enough to sell.So other people's homes also have vermicelli, and their business is not as good as hers. If it doesn't hinder her from making money, he doesn't think it's necessary to tell her, so as not to cause her trouble.

Xiuyao's farm is mainly pigs and sheep, and the chickens are mainly for laying eggs and for the family to kill and eat meat. The total value of the livestock sold to Liu Yan this time is 150 taels of silver.

Originally, it cost 160 taels, but Xiuyao said that the price of pork is 140 taels instead of [-] taels. The total amount is [-] taels.Liu Yan disagreed, and then the two of them calculated the total and got a median value of one hundred and fifty.

What Liu Yan is doing now is a profitable business, and he can make more money by trafficking around, and all he gives to Xiuyao is cash.

After sending Liu Yan away, the family was busy with the New Year's affairs, so Qin Ye brought Qin Yang back.

Qin Yang will be eight years old after the new year, and after studying these few years, he is completely different from before.Now that I see my family members, although I am still very mischievous, but there is a scholarly air between my brows, a warm smile, and the elegance and demeanor of a scholar.

Wearing a green cloth robe specially made for Li Shi on his body, and white soap boots on his feet, he is clean and beautiful, elegant and dignified.

As soon as he got home, he respectfully kowtowed to his parents, and bowed to his brothers and sisters.

When it was Qin Xian's turn, Qin Xian was a little unnatural, because he didn't do this when he came home, it was the same as when he came home normally.

But everyone was talking and laughing, and didn't pay attention to his embarrassment, so he just got away with it.

In addition, the Liu family has to entertain some relatives who come to enjoy the autumn breeze. There are some relatives from the village head who come to borrow noodles for the New Year, and some relatives of the Zhang family and Lao Qintou. new year.Regarding the relatives of Daqiufeng, the Liu family always looked at, firstly, the relationship with the Qin family, secondly, the condition of the family, and thirdly, the attitude of the person who came to borrow food.Some people are clearly asking for help, but they act as if asking you for help is to give you face, then she won't find fault and just deal with it perfunctorily.

If those are motivated and willing to work hard, but the family has some difficulties, Liu will naturally be happy to help.

And those in this village will help more or less, after all, everyone helps each other on weekdays.

In the blink of an eye, New Year's Eve.

The custom in Taoyuan Village is to have a New Year’s Eve dinner for the whole family. After the meal, the members of the village’s own family will drink to each other to celebrate the New Year, and then in the early morning of the first day of the first lunar month, the members of the village will visit each other to say Happy New Year to each other.After the first day of junior high school, I started to visit relatives, and every household was free and busy.

Free time means not having to do work, and being busy means visiting relatives during the New Year.

Naturally, there are poor families or those with distant relatives who don't move around much.For example, in the old Qin's family, there were very few relatives who walked around in the past. In the past two years, Qin Dafu's family has recovered, and some relatives have started to come and walk around again.

Those who came to borrow things, and those who wanted to continue the relationship, slowly moved around.

However, visiting relatives also costs money. Guests must be entertained, and gifts must be brought to relatives’ homes.Some people have to pretend to be fat in the public face, and they have to leave relatives to borrow money.

The New Year's Eve dinner is of course at Qin Dafu's place, it's warm and spacious, very comfortable.

Old Qintou called the sons of the other two families, so that they would not have to go to his place for the New Year in the future, and they would all come to the old man.Everyone here is warm and comfortable, and eats well, of course it is good here.

During the meal, I talked about visiting relatives. In the past, my family was poor and didn't move around very much, but some close relatives, such as Zhang's natal family and Lao Qintou's sisters, still walked around.

Now there are more people who didn't move around before, and the number of relatives suddenly increased.

Old Qin drank a glass of wine happily, "Boss, you three, let's see how to get rid of relatives."

Qin Dafu smiled and said to Qin Ergui and Qin Sanshun: "Second brother, third brother, what do you think?"

Qin Sanshun curled his lips, tilted his head with his arms in his arms, and said in a toned tone: "I—what can I think, anyway, I—it doesn't count if I say it." He is dissatisfied with his husband's hard labor, and now he wants to discuss leaving his relatives, so he doesn't want to go.

The third aunt naturally also had plans. The relatives their family was going to leave were her mother's family and sister's family. She would not care about the relatives of Lao Qin's family.Those people who usually look down on others and don't come to the door, now they all come together, just to make a profit, why are they going to Sanfang, why not go.

Qin Ergui expressed his opinion: "We will split it equally, and the three families will go together, so hurry up."

The second aunt snorted, "You're not the boss, so why do you say that the three families will leave together. After the family is separated, the relatives are all under the care of the big house."

Qin Ergui said: "That's because the big house is divided into an extra share of the family property. Our family has nothing. Eldest brother went out clean, so let him take care of everything."

The second aunt wanted to say, but Qin Ergui rolled her eyes, "That's the deal."

Qin Sanshun said: "Then it's fine for you, it has nothing to do with me, I'm very tired. This time, I'm more tired than before. My bones are falling apart." He coughed deliberately.

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly asked with concern: "San Shun, you should also take a good rest. If you don't go, you won't go." Then he said to Mrs. Liu: "His sister-in-law, you have a chicken in your house, catch one and give it to General San Shun to raise." Take your body."

Mrs. Liu saw that not only did her mother-in-law use her house as a back kitchen, she could eat and drink as much as she wanted, and she also wanted to take care of the third room. Come out here. You come to get things and visit relatives with your eldest brother."

The third aunt hurriedly pushed Qin Sanshun, Qin Sanshun just said: "Brother, then I will be with you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Mrs. Liu interrupted him, "Third Uncle, you are exhausted, you should rest at home."

Seeing her reluctantly giving Qin Sanshun a chicken, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help being a little unhappy, thinking about how to get Mrs. Liu to listen to him.Now the Dafang family is rich, they live in a good house, eat good wine and meat, and make a lot of money.

Mrs. Zhang thought about how to get Mrs. Liu to hand over to herself. It is best to let herself be the head of the house and keep the money.

But she just thought about it, and didn't dare to do anything, lest her own benefits would be lost, so in other words, no matter how Sanshun winked at her, she didn't care.
