Chapter 42 Buying Land
Li Qiusui ran home with a whimper.

Li Sanzhu, as the head of the family who walks outside, has also traveled to the county town several times. He has heard of the Fuyun Building where the guests are like clouds.

I didn't go anywhere else when I entered the city, and went straight to Fuyun Building. The carriage was parked on the side of the foot door in the back alley of the restaurant. After tidying up my clothes, I raised my hand to knock on the door, but the door was opened from the inside.

Seeing someone outside, the man showed no surprise on his face, "Did you bring the ingredients?"

This is the backyard of the restaurant, and all the meat and vegetables purchased pass through this door, and he himself is the guy who specializes in counting and transporting.

Li Sanzhu rubbed his hands, hehe said with a smile: "Brother, please help me introduce the manager of the purchase."

While speaking, a handful of coppers were stuffed into his hands.

The man weighed it with his hands, and there were twenty or thirty coins!It was worth his day's wages, and he put it in his pocket skillfully.

Looking at the person up and down, the sackcloth is short and brown, and the clothes of the working people in the countryside, "You are not a regular customer of our store to deliver ingredients. Why do you want us to take care of you?"

His eyes fell on the carriage on the right, and his tone softened a bit: "Our manager is not here today, and the shopkeeper will be free. Can you tell me what kind of ingredients are in the basket first?"

If some common vegetables and fruits in the farm are not worth a few dollars, he can accept them at his discretion.However, being able to use a carriage and cover it up so carefully should be a rare and rare thing, and this cannot be decided casually.

"It's a kind of fungus, I grow it myself. Please tell the shopkeeper, brother."

The man lifted the wet sackcloth from the frame and took a look at the neatly arranged mushrooms, "You grow this thing? Has anyone eaten it? Is it poisonous?"

His home was just around the county seat, not too far from Lijia Village. They had heard about the poisonous wild mushrooms on the mountain since they were young.

"My family has eaten it a long time ago. Not only is it not poisonous, but it tastes good!" Li Sanzhu became excited when he saw someone, and his face flushed with excitement.

"Wait here."

The man put down his words, turned around, stepped over the threshold, and closed the door again.

Li Sanzhu squatted at the door, thinking about his daughter's explanation over and over in his heart.

It was thanks to that handful of coppers that the man was able to talk so well just now.Li Sanzhu, a farmer who is used to doing farm work, could not have thought of this beforehand. Li Qiusui reminded that it is easy to do things with money, and that is why the money is given.

The foot door was opened again, and Li Sanzhu hurriedly stood up.

An old man in his 60s or [-]s walked out of the door, and the younger brother who walked behind him pointed to Li Sanzhu and said, "Master Wu, this is the man who said that there are mushrooms for us."

The little brother licked his smiling face, and flattered him: "Will Guanshi Qian be here? Whether we can accept this thing or not, we still need your help to keep eyes open."

Shopkeeper Wu nodded, walked straight to the carriage, and lifted the wet linen from it.

"Is this from your family?"

Li Sanzhu, "Yes."

"How many days can I pick it?"

"Five to seven days."

Li Sanzhu replied, his attitude was not as cautious as he was with his younger brother.In the words of his daughter, if you can't do business with the pole, you can't do this one, and there is another one.

Shopkeeper Wu's eyes are bright. Their restaurant's signature Baiweizhen has mushrooms, and they send people to the countryside to collect them. The quantity is really limited, and the types are common.

"Have you eaten at home?"

Li Sanzhu nodded.

"What price do you want to sell?"

"The shopkeeper will let people make the dishes first, and after tasting them, we will discuss them in detail." Li Sanzhu took out a recipe from his arms and handed it over as he spoke.

……

……

Li Sanzhu was personally sent out of Fuyunlou by shopkeeper Wu, "Sanzhu, what's the matter, let's settle it like this! The fungus list is for our Fuyunlou family. In winter, if you can really grow mushrooms as promised, I will give you money. Double."

Li Sanzhu was sent far away, and he still couldn't recover.

Touch the two or six coins in your arms, 140 five catties of mushrooms, eighteen cents per catty, this price is as good as pork.There are also recipes, which are sold for twelve taels.

Looking back at Fuyun Tower again, as the girl said, it can be picked every three to five days, and it can be harvested in a month. How much money is that?

Li Sanzhu couldn't figure it out even with his fingers. He spent most of his life digging through the soil, and for the first time he had money in his pocket.With a thumping heart, he untied the carriage and hurried to Lijia Village in a daze.

Li Qiusui directed Liu Shi and Xia He to make lunch in the kitchen, and Li Sanzhu rushed in. Seeing the two girls there, he managed to regain his composure.

"It's all sold out!" asked Liu.

Couples who have been married for more than ten years still don't understand the head of the family. This excitement must be a good thing.

With his daughter still in front of him, Li Sanzhu managed to maintain his fatherly demeanor. He nodded without hiding anything, "Fuyunlou is sold! I will pick and send them over in the future, and the price will be compared with today's price. If the winter is still long, the price It might even double.”

While speaking, Li Sanzhu handed 12 taels of silver to Liu Shi.

Li Sanzhu has never seen silver coins a few times, let alone Liu Shi?

The bag of gold and silver that Li Qiusui gave last time, besides giving Shu Xiu to the three brothers Li Changshan, was also hidden under the box.Although Liu could not guess that the package was the private money of Young Master Zheng, she didn't plan to use it again.Golden Peanut Silver Dumplings, at first glance, are unusual for people to spend.

Furthermore, she still has the bank note from Li Qiusui in her hand.

These things were stuffed by my daughter. To be honest, Liu Shi didn't have the mood to observe carefully.It was different when Li Sanzhu handed over the money. This was the little girl who found a way to make money for the family, and she took it with peace of mind.

My daughter said that winter can grow, so of course it can!
Mrs. Liu didn't worry about this, counted the money in her hand, and urged: "Go to Lizheng's house quickly, and buy all the land around our house. Don't demolish the old house, first get that firewall , so that the winter is not cold and the humidity is maintained, mushrooms can still grow.”

The last sentence was Li Qiusui's original words, and Liu Shi copied them for Li Sanzhu.

"Xia He watched the ignition! I'll go to the house and take out the banknote to your father."

The bank note was naturally the 300 taels given by Li Qiusui.

At this time, Mrs. Liu also figured it out. When the family has money, they will double the compensation. If they just give way, the life of the family will be miserable, which will only make the daughter feel more uncomfortable.

Li Qiusui smiled helplessly as he saw her mother's back in a hurry.This time, she found the right way to grow mushrooms, and she could understand her parents' mentality. She was afraid of spending one less money, and she kept thinking about saving money, but she didn't know that increasing income was the right way.

In one noon, Li Sanzhu bought more than ten acres of land around his home for 50 taels of silver. The reason why it was so cheap was that except for his own piece of land, the rest was considered semi-wasteland, including the fish pond behind him.
