Xiao Fu Lang is Born with a Good Fate
Chapter 41:
After that, Brother Yu picked up the shells with two small claws and stopped feeding them. He just played for a while, and the two claws turned over, smashed and beaten.
If he couldn't put it in his mouth to taste, he lost interest, drooling and let go, staring wide-eyed to see the waves rising on the beach.
The seaside is endless, and many villagers rolled up their trousers and rushed to the sea. Zhou Jinnian passed by and talked with the villagers to understand the people's livelihood.
Xie Ning was walking around holding Brother Yu, and saw two fisher girls holding rakes plowing the land far away from the coast.
She walked over curiously and saw that what the fisher girl was raking was yellow and white sand and gravel.
Xie Ning asked, "What do you do to cultivate this sandy land? This sandy land can't grow food."
The fisher girl turned her head and glanced at him. She looked up and down and knew that he was not from the village, but when she saw him holding a white and tender milk doll, she kindly replied, "This is not farmland, we are drying salt."
Xie Ning panicked, "Salt?"
Knowing that he had misunderstood, the fisher girl quickly explained: "It's just pickled fish from home, not for sale."
"Oh..." Xie Ning nodded.
The salt and iron industry is state-owned and owned by the government. Selling illegal salt is a capital crime.
Although the recipe for refining fine salt has not been published, most of the villagers who live by the sea know more or less, but they are not so elaborate.
Xie Ning squatted down and looked carefully at the mixed sand and salt on the ground. The salt block was turned over by the rakes. After the sea water evaporated, there were only small stone-sized blocks left.
If the seawater is subjected to solarization and evaporation in a clean pool, filtered once and then solarized, relatively clean coarse salt will be obtained.
Xie Ning thought to himself, it's no wonder that salty dried salted fish and dried kelp are only sold cheaply in Nanyu County, because of this level of convenience.
By the nature of a businessman, his mind will inevitably become alive...
When I came to the beach, I didn't let Brother Yu go into the water. It was really unreasonable, and Xiao Yuer started to make a fuss.
"Come here, Brother Yu... Brother Yu, look at this, dad asks you to wash your hands, okay?"
Xie Ning took Brother Yu to the small waterhole dug by the fishermen. There were a few small fishes and shrimps in it.
Brother Yu was greedy, pointing to the sea and shouting.
"Wow..." Brother Yu whispered continuously, cooperating with the sound of the waves lapping, showing his small body's desire for the sea.
Xie Ning said with a smile, "How old are you? Let you go there to swim, and a wave will be carried away by you."
"Wow?" Brother Yu yelled no, and clicked his small mouth to moisturize his throat.
"Wow what? Daddy go buy a sea fish and burn it for you, okay?"
"Ah afraid!" Brother Yu smashed his dad's shoulder back boredly, licking his **** on his stomach and gnawing on his dad's clothes.
Xie Ning didn't recruit him any more, and with his stubborn son on his shoulders, he went to the fishermen to discuss buying sea fish.
Zhou Jinnian came over to find him to reunite, and the little son who had fished out the fleshy little son was in his arms, "What are you going to do?"
"Go buy two sea fish, and ask for a quote by the way. He wants to swim, so you can coax him." After saying that Xie Ning went to find someone to inquire about the price.
Zhou Jinnian bumped Brother Yu in his arms, and Brother Yu was trembling with the flesh of his father's cheeks.
"Do you want to play in the water, son?" Zhou Jinnian asked, and immediately made a decision for his son.
Brother Yu doesn't know how to leave yet, and he is reluctant to stand. It seems that except for swimming flexibly, all his development is slow. So he hasn't started wearing shoes yet. On his feet are the fine cotton socks that Xie Ning puts on him. A string is sewn on the top of the socks to tie his legs to fix the socks.
Zhou Jinnian untied his son's socks, took them off and put them in a small bamboo basket. He lifted the hem and stuffed it into the girdle. With bare feet, he hugged Brother Yu and walked towards the wet sand.
"Tread and see." Zhou Jinnian held up his son.
Brother Yu dangled two white radishes and small fleshy feet. There was a cool wet sand on the soles of his feet, soft and fresh. He squinted his eyes and smiled happily.
After exploring the sand twice, Zhou Jinnian took Brother Yu to stand on the shallow water.
As usual, Brother Yu was pinched by his father's small **** and dangled two fleshy white legs to explore the sea. As soon as he touched the water, Brother Yu became very excited, and his sharp laughter rose by a degree, "Ahahaha …"
Zhou Jinnian also curled his lips, "Are you happy?"
Brother Yu's legs fell quickly, but the seawater only passed his fat feet, so he kicked the seawater in Zhou Jinnian's pants.
Hugging Brother Yu to play in the sea water at close range for a while, Xie Ning called people on the shore, and the parent-child activities in the water ended when she was a freshman and a child.
Zhou Jinnian used the hem of his robe to carefully clean the feet of Brother Yu. Xie Ning put on fine cotton socks for his son, and finally walked back with a small bamboo basket in one hand and the fish in one hand.
…
Sitting back in the carriage, Xie Ning was feeding his son with water and talking about the plan, "In the dead year, I want to harvest dried fish and dried shrimps and transport them back to the Yuezhou government, and put Xieji food stores to sell silver."
"Oh, it's impossible, a loss-making business."
Before Zhou Jinnian spoke, the cheerful coachman interrupted.
Xie Ning looked at Ji Nian next week and raised the curtain to ask: "Why lose money?"
"You see, you have to use horses and horse-drawn carts to transport goods, and that cart has to be built well, but this horse-drawn cart with cargo can't get off at least a dozen."
"Oh..." Xie Ning nodded.
The coachman continued: "And even if you are not bad, you won't be able to sign this way."
Xie Ning nodded quickly this time. This is true. Wherever you go, you have to have a road sign signed by the government. People who pass through the checkpoint are taxed, and the goods are for delivery tax.
These barriers were stopped, and it was extremely difficult for the various cities of the Qing Dynasty to form a population flow.
"All the way up the mountains and rivers, there are no fists, and there are many difficulties. In the first few years, I heard that the businessmen died. Guess how they died?"
Xie Ning shook his head, and guessed: "Road meets a robber?"
The coachman shook his head, pretending to be mysterious.
"The carriage fell off the cliff?"
Only then did the coachman give the answer with satisfaction, "Neither, he was starved to death."
"..." Xie Ning understood. This is probably the reason why the goods are difficult to circulate.
Xie Ning sat back and said nothing, but kept thinking about things.
Having been back to the county magistrate's office, Lin Jin came over to hug Brother Yu, dangling and bumpy, rare enough for his own grandson.
"It smells like salted fish. Grandpa will take you to wash it. You're playing in the water. Isn't Yu brother happy?" After speaking, he hugged the little baby and left. He and his husband recently ran around the county town to see the shops, planning to open the second full-fish banquet to Nanyu County.
After his son was taken away, Zhou Jinnian returned to the house. He cleaned his hands outside before going around the screen. At a glance, he saw Xie Ning sitting on the bed chair under the window in a daze.
Zhou Jinnian sat next to him in the past, knowing that Xie Ning was worrying about shipping goods and running business, and explained: "There is no hurry to make money. Once the granary in Nanyu County is abundant and the people have a fixed place, the husband will find a way. Earn money for you."
Xie Ning misunderstood and explained quickly: "It's not making money, I'm not in a hurry!"
After finishing talking, he reached out and put his hands on Zhou Jinnian's thighs, and then said: "I just like doing business, and I feel very happy when I get results, and I feel... I am confident?"
Zhou Jinnian raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "He is confident."
Xie Ning nodded, stood up and straddled Zhou Jinnian's lap, buried his upper body in her husband's arms, and muttered: "I don't know how to assist you in governing the county seat, and I don't know how to be an official."
"So I want to make the people in Nanyu County have a revenue. Did you know? That sea fish is cheaper than river fish, shrimp meat is less, and the cost of salvaging meat is not worth the price."
Zhou Jinnian leaned back, changed a comfortable posture, hugged his fish treasure, and listened quietly.
"But we are in Yuezhou Mansion, shrimps are rare."
"..."
He muttered to himself, and kept talking. When he had said enough, he raised his upper body and looked at Zhou Jinnian, "What's the matter? What are you thinking about?"
Zhou Jinnian looked at Ning Lang with a smile at this moment, "My husband's big baby! How come you feel that you can't help me? I now have an idea, only you can help as a husband."
Xie Ning's eyes lit up immediately, shook his body, holding Zhou Jinnian's face, and asked, "What's the matter? Tell me quickly."
"Nanyu County has a large area, but it is sparsely populated and lacks labor, so the county has been lagging behind in the construction of the county." Zhou Jinnian tore off Xie Ning's hand, squeezed it to play, and felt very comfortable in the cold.
"Huh?" Xie Ning pouted, "how can I help you? Where can I find someone for you?"
Zhou Jinnian gave a sullen laugh and shook Ninglang's claws, "You don't need to find someone, you just do food business."
"In a few days, I will entertain the talented people around Nanyu County. Would you like to help your husband study the delicious food? I will have a wine-making competition with the main course of the banquet prepared by you, and win the first prize."
Xie Ning looked surprised and said: "Oh? Do you want these talents to build a house for you?"
"Oh..." Zhou Jinnian squeezed Xie Ning's fleshy lips, "How can I be so stupid, the scholar is weak, how can I build?"
"Hmm..." Xie Ning's lips were pinched together, and she couldn't speak.
"I want this delicacy you made to become the signature of Nanyu County. First pass Qingping County, then Xijiang County, spread it all over the capital city of Jianzhou, and finally it is known throughout the country, attracting talented and beautiful people, local tyrants, and dignitaries to come and taste the delicious food. ."
"There will be lively places where there are people, and lively places will slowly prosper."
Xie Ning pouted his mouth and raised his head backwards, and tore off her husband's troublesome hand, and answered in surprise: "Then there will be merchants who will build houses, open shops, and run business!"
"Yes!" Zhou Jinnian nodded in approval.
Xie Ning supported Zhou Jinnian's shoulders, lifted his **** and stood on the ground, leaving a sentence: "I'm going to the stove!"
Saying that wind is rain, Zhou Jinnian smiled and shook his head, and got up to go to the study to deal with official duties.
…
Xie Ning has been busy these days, and occasionally stopping in a daze is also full of delicious food.
Brother Yu is crawling fast now. The buildings in Nanyu County are mostly made of wood, and the ground is covered with wooden planks, so he crawls around tightly wrapped.
The weather in Nanyu County in November is not very cold, but it is very dry. You have to feed Brother Yu several times a day. His grandfather treats him with care, for fear of his grandson getting angry.
But today Lin Jin and Wednesday Feng went out to set up a shop. Brother Yu was left at home and taken care of by his father Xie Ning.
Xie Ning put the newly bought fat shrimp into the bucket, intending to raise it all afternoon, and tell the shrimp to spit out the sand in his belly.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Brother Yu held a dried angelica with two claws, and sat on Qianghuo's feet in a bunch of meat.
Qianghuo is very free now. The medical book he wants Zhou Jinnian will send someone to buy him. He is fascinated by his medical skills.
However, he also helped Zhou's family a lot. On Wednesday Feng's leg disease was often cloudy and winter, and the pain in the bones was unbearable, and he was cured by Qianghuo acupuncture and medicinal wine.
He came down from the mountain again this time and carried a basket of medicinal materials. Among them, the angelica should be soaked in wine.
"This is Angelica sinensis, which is warm in nature. Lei Gong's book says: The three meridians of the heart, liver, and lungs." Qianghuo's movements were sternly, still talking to his little brother Yu.
"The strip you hold in your hand is Guishen." Qianghuo cut out the last section, leaving the roots of Angelica, and handed it to Brother Yu, and said, "I am Guitou."
Brother Yu grabbed one of his hands and returned, his small mouth was shiny and a drop of saliva hung on his chin, and he didn't listen to Qianghuo's words.
"Do you know, why is it called Angelica?" Qianghuo asked and replied: "The flax is so good that there is no one. It really didn't return at that time."
Seeing that the little baby ignored him, Qianghuo took it back and continued cutting.
"Ah!" Brother Yu had nothing in his hand, so he shouted anxiously.
Qiang hurriedly took the scissors to cut a five-fingered peach, "Here, get a bigger one for you."
The five-finger hair peach is as long as an adult's small arm, and the fingers are thick and yellow with dead branches.
Brother Yu squeezed his small mouth, tugged five-finger Maotao up and down, shaking his hands up and down. Five-finger Maotao fell on the ground and made a muffled ‘pop’ sound.
"Afraid... afraid!"
Qianghuo laughed, "Why do you still learn to sound? But do you want to be a ventriloquist?"
"Ah...wow..." Brother Yu grabbed his foot with a small claw, and gently scratched the wooden floor with five fingers of Maotao in the other.
Then he looked at Qianghuo who was laughing, and stared at the adult's expressions with big eyes. After confirming that Qianghuo's expression was friendly, he turned his head and began to slap the floor again.
"Fear, fear, fear" was still in his mouth.
Luhe came into the house holding a dustpan, and his first move was to squat in front of Brother Yu and tease the baby with his tongue.
"Boom!"
Brother Yu heard the sound and looked at Luhe with his head held high and smiled, "Haha...ha...haha..."
Luhe took the handkerchief to wipe off the saliva from his chin, and touched his round head, "What do you do with the stick?"
She stretched out her hand to squeeze the five-finger Maotao, Yu brother let go, both of her claws went to pick her feet, and she was not angry, still smiling.
Luhe turned to look at the five-finger Maotao, and then gave it back to him, "Here, let's play, let's go and dry the sweet potatoes. Your father steamed a lot of sweet potatoes, and I will hide them for you when they are dried. eat slowly."
Qianghuo had originally bowed his head and cut Angelica sinensis. He raised his head and said anxiously: "No, he is only one year old. Dried sweet potatoes are not easy to digest, and he eats too many sweets, which is bad for his teeth."
Luhe gave a soft ‘ah’ and nodded clearly.
"Furthermore, if he eats too many sweets, he will not eat that tasteless food anymore."
"Oh." Luhe continued to nod his head, and touched Brother Yu's little feet, "Well then, I won't give you any more."
When Brother Yu heard the word ‘eat’, he became more sensitive, and immediately patted his mouth, dropped his five-finger Maotao, and raised his two small arms for Luhe to hug.
"Hmm..." He moaned and rubbed his **** on the floor, very anxious.
Adults usually hug him to eat, so he will hug him if he is greedy.
Lu He simply hugged him and played for a while, don't look at Brother Yu's small group, he was not as long as an adult, but he was the most precious figure in the Zhou family, and he spoiled him up and down.
