Smallholder Farming Daily

Chapter 58

The accountant glanced at Shiliu's figure, and said with a sneer, "It's no use playing tricks on me." He flung his sleeves and walked away.

Qian Feng saw that the attitudes of the two boys were not bad, so he asked: "Little brother, what does my silkworm raising have to do with the government?"

The thin boy turned his head to look at the accountant, and said in a low voice: "The government stipulates that our boss can only accept silkworm cocoons from [-] families, and others can't accept them. Yesterday we took [-] cocoons, and today we are only short of the Wicked Zuizi family. If our boss is questioned by the government for collecting your silkworm cocoons, then we won't be able to work in the boss's house."

Qian Feng frowned when he heard this, and said: "The government is full, isn't it, and this kind of thing is also in charge?"

The skinny guy immediately hissed and winked, "You can't talk nonsense like this. The government is also for the benefit of the common people. The price of silkworm cocoons is so good. If every household raises cocoons, wouldn't it be a mess? If the price doesn't go up and won't That said, those workshops can’t use so many cocoons. You must know that most of these silkworm farmers have some relationship with the government, and our boss doesn’t dare to offend.”

Qian Feng sighed, took a step back and sat on the cart, why is it so difficult to make a living secretly?Suddenly he asked again: "Little brother, did your boss take the cocoons to Suzhou to sell? If I also take the cocoons to Suzhou, the government there should not care about it?"

The skinny guy thought for a while and said, "You can sell it there, but the price is less than half of that here. There are indeed many workshops collecting silkworm cocoons, but they can only accept those cocoons stipulated by the government on the surface." Silkworm farmers, if they come across someone who sells it privately, those workshop owners will take the opportunity to lower the price, anyway, if you don’t sell it, you have to sell it, so you can’t throw it away. Although the price is more than half lower, you can still sell it for some money, right?”

Pomegranate was still frowning just now, but after hearing this, she became more excited, "Qian Feng, why don't we go to Suzhou, even if it only sells for a dozen yuan a catty, our stuff can be worth more than 1000 yuan. "

Qian Feng stood up and thanked the two boys with a smile, and then pulled the ox cart out of the yard with Shiliu.

After leaving the yard, Qian Feng tied the ox under a big tree and did not leave. He greeted Pomegranate, "You stay here guarding the ox cart. I'll go buy something to eat. It's almost noon, and you're hungry too." Bar?"

Pomegranate grabbed Qian Feng, "Forget it, let's go hungry, anyway, we had enough food yesterday, we only have [-] Wen left, and we still have to go to Suzhou."

Qian Feng looked around for a while, and said slyly: "Why are we going to Suzhou? If we can't sell the price, we have to go so far. I am afraid that we will be too hungry to walk before we reach Suzhou. Are you here?" Let’s rest here, I’m going to buy some buns to eat.”

After Qian Feng finished speaking, she ran away. Pomegranate was dumbfounded, "Okay, let's eat steamed stuffed buns. It's been a long time since I had eaten steamed stuffed buns. The thought of hot steamed stuffed buns made her so hungry.As for what Qian Feng was thinking of, she didn't care.

After a while, Qian Feng bought four big buns, and each person ate two.

After eating the pomegranate, he asked, "How much is this big bun?"

"Two documents, one."

Pomegranate jumped up in shock, "Why is it so expensive? Isn't it a penny each?"

"Don't you see how big this bun is?" Qian Feng counted the money again, "Now we only have ten coins left, not much more than a bun."

"Then what should we do? Let's go to Suzhou quickly. We'll be there in the morning." Shiliu said and went to untie the rope under the tree.

"Wait!" Qian Feng saw a person driving an ox cart coming here in the distance, and there were many big sacks piled up on the cart. He squinted and saw that the person's mouth was crooked, so it should be crooked. Mouth.

Qian Feng hurriedly greeted him with a smile, "Brother, brother!"

Crooked Zuizi jumped off the bullock cart, with an arrogant face, looked Qian Feng up and down, and shouted: "Who is your big brother?"

Qian Feng didn't care about him, and smiled heartily, "Hey, don't be so angry, I'm your lucky man, and I'm here to help you make a small fortune today!"

Crooked Zuizi raised his head and laughed loudly, "Look at your disheveled face, you still smell like steamed stuffed buns in your mouth, why did you hit a nobleman, I'm afraid you are a hungry ghost, get out of the way, I still want to sell silkworm cocoons!"

Qian Feng patted the ashes on his body, then straightened the hair scarf on his head with his hands, and said with a smile: "Brother, don't look down on people, if I can't let you earn a sum of money today, I won't be called Qian." !"

Pomegranate ran over and pulled Qian Feng nervously. She saw that the crooked mouth was arrogant and full of flesh. She and Qian Feng might not be rivals together. She whispered in Qian Feng's ear, "If you have Isn’t it good to make us rich ourselves, why should we help him get rich? If it can’t be done, he will beat us.”

Although she was muttering in a low voice, Waizuizi heard her, and Waizuizi laughed even more wildly, "Good dogs don't get in the way, you guys get out of the way and help me get rich, what the hell!"

Not only did Qian Feng not get out of the way, he even stretched out his arms to stop him, "I'll just leave my words here for now. If I can't help you get rich, even if you beat me to death, I won't fight back!"
