Traveling through the Prosperous Pastoral of Peasant Girls

Chapter 114 Elope Again

As the weather gets warmer, the refugees who have land should go back to their hometowns, and those who don’t have land and have taken a fancy to the many benefits of the capital and don’t want to go back to their hometowns, they start looking for work everywhere.The refugees in the Western Feudal Kingdom all live in the mountains, with very little land, and natural disasters often occur. Seeing that the capital of the country is rich in natural treasures, and the terrain around the capital is flat, there is no need to worry about floods and droughts. Most people insist on not leaving.

Because there are too many people looking for work, the wages have dropped by [-] to [-] percent.After the wild vegetables in the field were enough to satisfy their hunger, in order to urge the refugees to return home as soon as possible, the Jin Mansion and the Royal Family closed the porridge shop at the same time.At the same time, the Golden Mansion also ended the food supply to Qinglang Country and Xiaoyan Country, and began to organize cargo ships to ship a large number of new products overseas, in exchange for overseas specialty oil cloth, ironware, dried fruits and cosmetics...

In the first ten days of April, Zhang Sheng sent a letter to the pigeon; with the help of the governor and Ya Ge, he bought a pier in an excellent location. The pier used to be his business rival, that is, the pirate. It only cost two thousand gold coins.Luo Luo and Zhang Sheng are urging people to repair it, and it will be available soon.There is also a large workshop for making glass, which is also owned by this pirate. This time, it was also bought. Unfortunately, the workshop is only half built, and it will take a few more months to produce it. The workshop was sold, and he used illegal means to dig it up. The workers who came to make glass, because of a major accident, are now gone... This made Jin Li sigh.

In addition, he received another order for sixteen suitcases. The courier brought a few sheets of paper with pictures on them. He looked through them and found that some of them were obviously drawn by women, because they were small bags that were carried around with them. Kun bag with handle and cross straps.Some even drew sketches of kun bags by themselves, and designed the patterns of accessories by themselves, some were flowers and some were pictures of beauties, all of which were inspired by pirate patterns.Although these small kun bags are not as expensive as pirate suitcases, the lowest price is five gold coins. Seeing the business opportunity, Liu Tao redesigned several styles as samples, and worked overtime to make large batches.

As Jinfu's rice cakes and other traditional small foods are selling well overseas, the production scale of several small commodities has been increased.A batch of ovens and silver pots were added.Those leather jackets and skirts were very popular in Port of Montenegro due to their novel style and well-made workmanship. Luo Luo's orders were all scheduled for June, and the Jinfu could only organize manpower to work overtime to rush the production.

When Mr. Xu came to the capital, he came to Jin Mansion by the way. Seeing that Jin Yang had made a lot of money by opening up overseas markets, he was also moved. He followed Fan Tong's fleet to Heishan Port for inspection.

Liu Tao has long hated the foot wraps and walking socks of Daquanguo. In winter, the foot wraps are inside the boots and cannot be seen from the outside. The cloth socks worn in spring and autumn are loose and loose on the feet. There is no elasticity at all.He tried to make three pairs of gauze socks with a sewing machine using the spun yarn used to make mosquito-proof caps.However, this kind of gauze socks is not woven. There is an ugly overlap of fabric at the junction of the sewing machine stitches, and the straight tube looks like a heelless sock.I didn't feel uncomfortable wearing it on my feet, but with Liu Tao's eyes, the socks looked too ugly.

When several female workers saw Liu Tao trying it on, they all shouted, "Boss, is this our new product?"

"No, it's too ugly, you guys can wear it if you want!"

As soon as the words fell to the ground, the female worker surnamed Qian took away a pair first, the female worker surnamed Li took a pair, and the ones surnamed Ma and the ones surnamed Huang each took one. Because they liked it so much, they just took away the single pair The stockings are worn on one foot, looking through the sandals, it feels very novel.Because they liked each other so much, the two refused to give in to each other, neither would give each other a stocking to make a pair.

One day later, Liu Tao passed by the door, and the female worker surnamed Qian who came to work in the morning said to Liu Tao: "Master, many people have asked me about this kind of socks, should we hurry up and make a batch in our house?" ?”

Before she could answer, she snatched away a sock, a female worker surnamed Huang who was still wearing it on her feet, and brought a middle-aged man over to say hello to Liu Tao. Relative, he came to Jinfu to discuss the distribution rights of new socks.

She let the shopkeeper into the living room, found Jin Yan to discuss, Jin Yan said: "Do you know, Taoer, although what you made is a primary product of silk stockings, but the idea is to lead the trend, and you made it in advance for fear of others. , we have fallen into the ranks of passive imitation, you should take back those stockings for the time being, and give them a few pairs of qualified products later, so as not to complain. And we also hurriedly put the stockings into mass production, first Don't sell it, just stockpile a lot, as for the shopkeeper, just sign half of the distribution contract with him."

"Then stop the production of mosquito-proof hats. The imitation mosquito-proof hats on the market have become saturated, and our profits are not much. Let's save more silk stockings and put them on the market in large quantities."

"Haha, I can imagine all the big beauties wearing our stockings, or pantyhose skirts, with the elegant look of flaming red lips..."

The Jinfu announced that it will plan a large piece of land behind the pier. The land there will not be planted this year, but although some people have sold their houses to the Jinfu, they have not found a good place to move for a while, and they are still in the original lived in the house.Later, some refugees had nowhere to go. Seeing that there were no people living in these houses, they picked up a cheap one to live in.Now that the place is going to be demolished, even if they don't want to, they have to hurry and find another place to live.

The Jinsha family is the same as them, the house can be lived in, but it does not belong to them.Jinsha is farther away from the Jinfu, and on the east side of the school yard, I found a house, which was even better than the house I lived in now. The owner asked for 800 taels of silver.This time, because I have two thousand and five silver from the second uncle in my hand, and the hundreds of taels I earned from making marinated fish, I am embarrassed to ask Jin Lian to pay for the house again.

Xiu'e suggested that Jin Sha and Jin Hao should discuss it. At the corner of the roadside at the bridge head of the Qianmen Bridge of Jin Hao Jin Mansion, the place where Jin Hao Liutao wants to get off is the Xiaojin River in front of it and the Jin Mansion in the west. The small river, surrounded by water on both sides, is in an excellent location. I don’t need to buy a house with this money. I will rent a place to live temporarily and use the money in my hand to build a higher-end restaurant.

She also said that she would cook the stove herself, and the meals guaranteed to satisfy the guests.If you don’t have enough money to build a restaurant, you can tell your parents-in-law that it’s a legitimate business, and your parents-in-law will support it.

She saw that there was a lot of passenger traffic at the pier, and some of the customers were businessmen, and they were not stingy with money for meals.Apart from the two snack bars in the current wharf, there are no relatively high-end places to eat. Usually, when the two snack bars arrive at the restaurant, there are too many merchants eating in the restaurant, and the two snack bars are crowded, and the business is very good up.Not only those two restaurants, but even the stalls selling steamed buns and noodles on the side of the road, people have to queue up to eat.

Although some wealthy and respectable people are reluctant to eat in small shops, there is no other way. There is no other place besides these two. It would be a good place to have a rest in the house.Due to the small size of these two restaurants, there are too many people eating, resulting in a noisy and disorderly environment, which is a mess. If you want to talk about business in a clean way, it is too inappropriate.

She excitedly told the three of her plans, but unfortunately, the grandparents and grandchildren of the Jinsha family were greedy for comfort and no longer wanted to work hard. After hearing this good idea, no one agreed with it, which made Xiu'e very sad. Afterwards, the days became even more uncertain, and I had to think about it in another way.

Grandma said that the price of the house in Jinsha Xiangzhong was a bit high, so she went to the owner to make a price call. In the end, it was sold for 500 taels. At that time, she paid a deposit of 200 taels of silver, and waited to pay the balance the next day and get it to the government. The contract moved.

Liu Jiaojiao was dizzy, dizzy, and weak because of her severe pregnancy reaction. This pregnancy is the kind of Jinsha, and she rarely goes out because she is afraid of accidents.

Although Xiu'e was also pregnant, she had very little pregnancy reaction. Although Liu Jiaojiao was worried about Xiu'e when she went to pay for the house this time, she still packed the bank note in a pouch and gave it to her, and told her: "I saw our gambler, you must not give him the house money, even if you go to the latrine, you have to hold the purse with your mouth."

"Hey, sister, don't worry, if I'm here, he won't be able to take away a copper coin!" Xiu'e said decisively.

In the morning of the next day, Xiu'e took the purse containing the banknotes, and Jinsha and Xiu'e went out together, leaving the alley and heading straight for the house, walking on the main road at the wharf, people they knew greeted each other.Jinsha is the young owner of the Jin Mansion, and everyone generally knows the relationship between Jin Li and Jinsha, but they don't know the inner situation between them.When they passed by a covered carriage, Xiu'e who was walking behind suddenly sat on the ground, yelling that she sprained her foot, and gasped in pain.Her shout immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Jinsha blamed her for being careless, and seeing that the house was not far away, she let her continue walking with his support, but Xiu'e said: "Master, my foot hurts badly, you should go by yourself, I'm here Take a rest here, and we will go home together when you come back." Xiu'e said, stuffing her purse into his arms.

Jin Sha touched her purse through her clothes, followed her suggestion, and told her to leave alone.Before leaving, he told her with concern: "If I can't come back for a long time, you can find someone you know to send you back."

Xiu'e frowned when she saw him turn the corner, and let out a sigh of relief by rubbing her chest. Her feet didn't hurt anymore, and then she climbed into the carriage, and a man next to him also got into the carriage, and immediately told the driver : "Okay, people have received it, let's go quickly."

This man is Xiu'e's elder brother. Ever since he returned to the capital, this elder brother has inquired about the location of Jinfu. In order to meet Xiu'e and make it easier to meet in the future, he works not far from Jinfu to build the wharf of Jinfu. He also participated in the whole process.

The first time he met Xiu'e on the road, Xiu'e was annoyed that he left her without saying goodbye, and her attitude towards him was extremely cold.But he said that her family members are looking for her everywhere, and once they are caught, they will be put into a pig cage and sunken pond, so that she will not show her face at the pier. Even if she is covered by the golden government, it will be troublesome to sue the government What's more, their tribe will not let her go easily, and will secretly take her back to her hometown to be executed in private.After hearing this, Xiu'e knew that the elder brother was doing it for her own good, and that it was a great risk to come here to find her, so she changed her original attitude towards him.

He usually works around the wharf, and he can meet Xiu'e by the way. Before the earthquake, the weather was very hot. Xiu'e believed that she had a golden mansion to rely on. It was impossible for the clansmen in her hometown to kidnap him in broad daylight, so they came out to set up a stall. Sell ​​tea to earn some personal money.

Jin Sha didn't agree with her to show up in public at first, but it was difficult for him to extract a copper coin from Liu Jiaojiao's hands. Seeing that there was cash income, he agreed to her selling tea at the dock, but he had to give him some of the money earned every day.Xiu'e endured it for the convenience of meeting her lover.

From time to time, they looked for opportunities to get together without telling Jin Yan's family. The elder brother was determined to be with her this time, and they discussed together to find opportunities to escape.But Xiu'e still has hopes for Jinsha, hoping that he can start some legitimate business and make a fortune.But later, I saw that he let himself down more and more, even the small money she got from selling tea was not spared.

That night when Jin Li and the other ran into her, she hid her face and ran away like a mouse seeing a cat. She was frightened for several days, but after seeing that it was nothing serious, she was relieved a little.But the bottom of my heart is always uneasy, I always feel that the two of them have discovered it, and the reason why they didn't expose it in time is also waiting for an opportunity.This time, Liu Jiaojiao kept all the money for herself. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to escape, so she made an appointment with senior brother one day in advance, and asked him to make all preparations for leaving quickly.
