Chapter 98

"It's still Xiaomi who is thoughtful. Although the life of each family is much better now, it is impossible to spend a few dozen taels of silver."

"That's right, when the vegetables are sold, the first thing to do is to pay back the principal that Xiaomi paid in advance."

Everyone responded, and Old Master Feng even decided to set the tone, "Family has a lot of wealth, and hair is not counted. Growing vegetables depends on whether God is perfect. But Xiaomi helps everyone like this, and everyone should be grateful. Even if you don’t earn money from growing vegetables, you will have to pay back her capital by hunting and selling leather next autumn.”

"Yes, Old Master Feng."

Naturally, everyone has everything they want, and Orion is straight-tempered. If there is a grudge, it is natural to repay the favor. It is love for Xiaomi to lead everyone to make money, and they can't take it for granted.

Father Lu never cared about these trifles, so he ordered Xiaomi to prepare dinner after hearing that everyone had discussed it properly.Then he plunged into the room and continued to struggle with the books.

Xiaomi was so provoked by his father that he couldn't laugh or cry, so he could only call Feng Jian, who was writing something in the room, to come out to help treat the guests.

Aunt Jiang has been working as a servant in the Lu family for a while. Although she is still reluctant to use oil in cooking, and the meat slices are always sliced ​​thinly, she has learned a lot about Xiaomi's specialty dishes.

With her help, it was much easier for Xiaomi to prepare the banquet. In no time, eight dishes, plus a pot of shredded radish and meatball soup were served.

This year, everyone in Lao Xiongling helped Xiaomi to build a large-scale construction, and the corn that he planted at home had a bumper harvest, so he didn't have to worry about rations, and the autumn hunting added a fortune.

As the old saying goes, you know the etiquette from the truth.In the same way, with oil and water in their stomachs, the villagers will not gobble up food as before, and become much more refined.

The Lu family's dishes don't need to be calculated with basins, and they can finally use the beautiful bowls and dishes specially bought by Xiaomi.

Of course, the small table in the kitchen is not in this category. The big bowl that Gao Ren held in Chuyi’s hand was the size of a child’s head. There were large pieces of ribs and meatballs piled on the snow-white rice. It was a joy to eat. .

Xiaomi came in to refill the vegetables, saw them starved to death, and knocked on their foreheads, and finally added half a bowl of sliced ​​meat to them...

After the banquet was over, within half an hour, all eighteen households in Laoxiongling got the news of the mass production.

As a result, every household was cheering. After all, the sheds of golden vegetables that Xiaomi tossed last year really made everyone too envious.Now, my family is about to plant, and a lot of money is almost running into the money box with long legs. How can this not make people excited and looking forward to it?
So, in the early morning of the second day, before the sun came out, under the cold north wind, every household smoked from cooking.

Needless to say, the first greenhouse must belong to the Lu family.

Xiaomi chose the location of the rice field. Now that the rice is harvested, only a sunny and flat open space is left, which is really a perfect place to build a greenhouse.

There are eighteen households in the village, and a strong laborer from each family gathered here.

The adobe that was prepared in the summer was stacked into three walls almost in the blink of an eye. The side facing south and north was six feet high. , supporting the beam above, on which 24 square wooden windows are installed along the slope.The wooden windows are divided into upper and lower rows, facing each other, and each is tied with a rope, which is convenient for pulling and opening.

The window sash is not pasted with window paper, but a thin cotton curtain, even wrapped to the edge, as long as it is closed, no cold wind will leak in, and of course the light is also blocked.

At this time, we can see the key role of the sea cloth stretched inside the window. No matter how cold it is in winter, when the window is opened at noon, the sun will shine through the sea cloth, and the cold wind will not blow in directly. Freeze the sprouts.Stay in the morning and evening, close the window sash, and then cover it with straw curtains. This greenhouse is the warmest fortress.

Of course, the green brick stove in the greenhouse, the iron tube running through the head and the tail, and the wooden box erected are also indispensable.

Fewer people eat better, more people work better.

Gathering the strength of the entire Laoxiong Ridge, such a perfect greenhouse was built in just two days.

Compared with last year, Xiaomi temporarily converted the vegetable shed in his own wing room, which is much more convenient and spacious.

When the stove was lit, the green smoke slowly moved along the iron tube, and finally found the chimney and ran out, slowly warming the entire greenhouse.

Everyone was sweating after sitting in it for a quarter of an hour, but there were smiles on their faces.

With such warmth, the vegetable seedlings must grow well, and the natural harvest is also guaranteed.

Because they saw hope, everyone was even more motivated.

The eighteen strong laborers did not dismantle the group, and directly started the construction of the next family's greenhouse.

With experience, the speed will be faster. It is the turn of each family, and the elderly and children help out together. In the end, it has reached the speed of one greenhouse a day. It's like being swept away by devils, and the flowers are clean.

Except for Fenfang, almost all the people at the foot of the mountain were withdrawn.

It was a busy time, and shopkeeper Chen came to the door again.The old man is not in a hurry to marry his daughter, but because he is thinking about Xiaomi's new gadget.

He also knows the inside story, knowing that the vermicelli is delivered to various restaurants, and it is guaranteed to make money.

Although the Chen family had no worries about food and clothing, it would not be difficult for them to eat and sleep well because of this money.But seeing that the road of wealth is in front of him, but he has been unable to step on it for a long time, this is absolutely unbearable for a good businessman.

So, the old man drank a little wine today, and while the wine was strong, he asked the young man to drive a car to visit the prospective in-laws.

Laoxiong Ridge is undergoing major construction in full swing, and it takes time to go hunting even up the mountain, let alone guarding the mountain pass.

The mountain gate was directly locked with an iron chain as thick as a child's arm, and no one could enter except flies.

The young servant of the Chen family almost broke his throat, and only then did the woman in the powder workshop hear the sound and ran to open the gate.

"Why is there no one guarding the gate, but something big happened on the mountain?"

The woman who opened the door was overjoyed because her greenhouse had just been built yesterday, and when she heard the old shopkeeper's question, she responded with a smile on her face, "Shopkeeper Chen doesn't know, the village is busy building a vegetable shed. , you don’t have to rush to cut the vegetables, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle the vegetables.”

"Yo, is that right? That's great. I thought Xiaomi really had to wait until next year to close the shed. Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, I don't know how she can survive the cold."

Shopkeeper Chen was a little pleasantly surprised when he heard it, but he was also worried about Xiaomi's loss. Apart from his own daughter, he loved Xiaomi the most.

Orion's temper is straightforward, and Orion's wife is naturally not twitchy. She likes people like shopkeeper Chen who say something. Compared with those who flatter and disdain in their hearts, it is better to express their worries and doubts clearly.

"Don't worry shopkeeper, we Xiaomi are smart. This time we didn't close the shed, but built the warm house."

"Then I'll take a closer look."

Shopkeeper Chen didn't bother to look at the large number of vermicelli hanging outside the vermicelli workshop, and went directly to Lingshang.

Xiaomi was counting the dolls and packing boxes by the way. Gao Ren was impatient to do these delicate tasks, so he went to the construction site to "help out". He wanted to help on the first day of junior high school, but he couldn't read or speak, so Xiaomi had no choice but to ask Feng Jian for help.

The two of them recorded and packed the boxes, occasionally chatted and laughed a few words, they had a tacit understanding, and the faint sweetness surrounded them in front of and behind them.Aunt Jiang, who was busy in the kitchen, glanced secretly from time to time, smiling happily.

Seeing shopkeeper Chen coming, Xiaomi thought he was here to urge the goods, so he smiled and said, "Fortunately, Uncle came and saw that we are busy, otherwise do you think I am lazy?"

Shopkeeper Chen pretended to be annoyed, and replied, "I'm just mad at you for being lazy, but that's not it. There are so many vermicelli at the bottom of the mountain. When are you going to sell them? Now that there are fur dealers in the county, it's time to make a fortune. Maybe the reputation will spread, but it will get twice the result with half the effort."

Xiaomi felt a little guilty when he heard that, these days he was busy building a greenhouse, and relying on the fact that the vermicelli was the only one in Dayuan, he didn't take the sale of it to heart, it was a bit neglectful.

As shopkeeper Chen said, this month is indeed a good time for sales.

But losing is not losing. Shopkeeper Chen has rich experience in business, and Xiaomi can't show weakness, so he said with a smile, "I've thought about it for a long time. If my uncle won't come these few days, I'm going to talk to my uncle about it, and what's more... I want to borrow the stove from my uncle's house."

"Oh, what does that mean?"

Shopkeeper Chen was curious, but Feng Jian had been with Xiaomi for a long time, so he knew her weirdness best, and said with a smile, "Are you hosting a banquet?"

"Haha, Brother Feng is still the smartest."

Xiaomi ushered the two into the room, sat down and poured tea, and then said, "Uncle Chen, please post a post. It is best to invite all the restaurant owners or owners in the city to have a banquet at Uncle's house. When the time comes, I will Cooking by myself, making a table of vermicelli feast, arousing their interest first, and then attaching the recipe, I don’t believe that the vermicelli will not sell well.”

"That's a good idea. Fortunately, I still wonder if you have forgotten about it. It turns out that you have already planned it."

Shopkeeper Chen was overjoyed, and he was already thinking about the list of treats in his mind.

Xiaomi secretly made a funny face with Feng Jian, and before she could speak, shopkeeper Chen couldn't sit still, "I'm going to go back sooner or later, and let someone call me if there's anything to do. It's best to reserve the banquet." Tomorrow, I will ask your sister Yuexian to help me."

After talking, the old man hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Leaving Xiaomi wondering whether to laugh or cry, he said, "If Sister Yuexian has half of Uncle Chen's ability, our Lu family will make money. If nothing else, just take care of my elder brother and don't give away all the wealth."

She didn't just say this casually. Boss Lu had to be accompanied every time he went to the city, and he couldn't hang up the purse containing money, otherwise he might come back with nothing left.

Previously, the Lu family had some reputation in the city, not because of Xiaomi, the clever daughter, but because of the eldest son who is kind and has no bottom line...

The end of autumn and the beginning of winter have always been the busiest seasons in Sai'an County. The beasts shed their sparse summer hair and put on warm and thick fur, hoping to resist the winter cold, but they also brought the greatest danger to themselves.

Because of the production of fur products, fur dealers from all over the country, even aristocratic families, will send people to Sai'an County to buy and trade for good fur.

The restaurant, which has been idle for more than half a year, is finally looking forward to the golden age when it is full.
