Smallholder Farming Daily

Chapter 90

Qian Feng knew that his mother didn't really want to seek death, how could she die with a baby in her stomach?
But he can't let his mother continue to make trouble like this, it's not good to get pregnant.Qian Feng helped Mrs. Yang step on a large whetstone by the well, "Mother, what do you see in front of you?"

Yang's face was covered with tears, and she followed Qian Feng's fingers to look far ahead, "Where is there, isn't it just a barren mountain?"

Qian Feng smiled, "What's on the mountain?"

Yang wiped away her tears, "There are still some withered and yellow grass, and there is no food, what's the use?"

Qian Feng laughed again, "What else?"

Yang was annoyed, "Why are you playing sloppy with me, now is not the time to look at the mountains, you have to figure out how to get rid of those beggars, our family doesn't have enough food to support so many mouths!"

"Don't worry, look again, what else is there on the mountain? It's a mountain full of treasures. Why can't you see it?"

Mrs. Yang rubbed her eyes and looked again, and the whole family followed to look at the distant mountain.It was evening, and there was nothing but the dark hills.

Yang opened her throat and cried again, "I can't see a grain of food even if I'm blind, what kind of broken mountains are you showing me at this time? If you have the ability, let your mother see what Jinshan and Yinshan look like." , I don’t want to see any mountains other than Jinshan Yinshan..."

Ge Taohua also came over and cried to help, "When the food at home is gone, our family will starve to death. I don't know if there is gold and silver in the underworld."

At this moment, Shiliu suddenly said: "This barren mountain is full of big rocks!"

Qian Feng clapped her hands violently, "That's right, my pomegranate is still the smartest, you all know how to cry and cry, but pomegranate didn't even cry, she's called Dazhiruoyu!"

Pomegranate smiled proudly, "Because you taught me how to make stones, I thought of this. But... this kind of stones can't be eaten as food. You told me the story of turning stones into gold last time." , can you turn stone into gold?"

Qian Feng shook his head with a smile, "I'm not a fairy, how can I turn stone into gold."

He helped Mrs. Yang to the base of the wall and sat down. Seeing that the whole family was waiting for him to say something, he didn't want to keep it up. marble, pomegranate, have you noticed that the houses of many rich people in the county are all built of stone?"

Pomegranate thought for a while, then nodded.

Yang said anxiously: "Isn't it just stones? There is no shortage of stones in the countryside. Ignore stones. As long as they are stones, they are worthless. Tell me, what can this broken stone do?"

"This kind of marble can be used to build houses, pave floors, build towers, build bridges, and statues... There are so many uses. Of course, the most important thing is that it can be sold for money! Mother, it can be sold for a lot of money! This kind of stone Why only the rich can afford it, because it is valuable, and we country people can only build houses with earth bricks, because we are too poor to afford this kind of stone. This mountain full of stones, if we mine it, we will earn money money?"

Qian Feng said it passionately. He had wanted to do something big for a long time. He had found out that this mountain was a rocky mountain before. He even studied it carefully and found that it was the best marble.

But who to find to mine, the villagers are definitely not good, they have fields and land, if the fields are abandoned and the mountains are opened but no money is made, wouldn't it be with Qian Feng?If he hired the villagers to open it, he would not be able to pay more than 20 cash per day. He did not have this capital, and the cost was too high. If the sales were not good, he would have to lose money.

How nice it is to have such a group of beggars here now. You don’t need to pay wages before selling money. You only need to take care of food. After earning money, you can send a sum of money to each of them. This is a sure way to make money big deal.

Qian Feng reported these to his family and made a comparison, "Think about it, if I hire fifty villagers to work, I have to pay more than 1000 Wen a day, how can I have so much money? Sometimes the marble can’t be sold, so we really lose our pants. Now these beggars live in huts in the back hills, and we only need to take care of food. It’s enough for one catty and a half, and it only costs four pennies. Money, fifty people only need two hundred cash in total. Vegetables are even cheaper, a dozen of cash can buy a load of Chinese cabbage, radish or pickles. I'm happy, if I don't make any money, I've taken care of them for so long, and they won't complain. Even if there are complaints, I can handle them."

The whole family was dumbfounded, Yang had nothing to say now, she didn't understand her son anymore, she didn't know what was going on in his mind all day long.Presumably he has seen the world outside and knows that this kind of stone can be sold for money, so let him make trouble. The big deal is to eat up his own food. Isn’t his son going to the county to sell things to make money? The whole family is starved to death.

Thinking of this, Yang said: "Son, you have made money after going out these few times, why are you still not satisfied? Didn't you delay your business?"

Seeing that his mother's tone was much softer, Qian Feng knew that she had already agreed with him, "Mother, I don't have to mine the stones myself, I just need to go and have a look, and I can go to the county as usual Those who do small business, just go out to inquire about the market of marble, find a stone dealer, and you will have a lot of money in the future!"

The pomegranate blossomed all over his face when he heard it, and the kudzu blossoms also stopped. He turned his head and went to the house to release the pigs and chickens, otherwise the whole house would smell bad.

Although Qian Feng and Qian Tong are both honest mud legs and don't understand these things at all, they feel that what Qian Feng said makes sense, and they shouldn't be fooling around here.

Everyone stayed for a while, seeing Ge Taohua carrying the pig into the pigsty, and the chicken being caught into the chicken shed, Yang Shi and Shiliu remembered the things in their house, and hurried into the house to get busy.

Seeing that everyone dispersed at once, Qian Feng said to himself, "Hey, I've been talking for so long, why haven't I even cheered?"

He also came to the house to move things with Pomegranate. The pig had already been carried into the pigsty by Pomegranate. Do you think I'm crazy too?"
