Chapter 26 Dividends
"I'll leave after delivering the goods tomorrow morning. There's no rush."

The old man Niu raised his eyes, looked at the little girl who was smiling brightly in front of him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, but he quickly recovered, Liu Qingcao didn't notice the old man Niu's expression, and still answered Niu The old man's words.

If we go together tomorrow morning, we don't have to walk in the morning. When we arrive at the town, we will call a bullock cart to come back. Even if we walk a short distance back to the village, it won't be too far.

After dinner, Liu Qingcao marinated the meat, fetched water to wash, and fell asleep.

At dawn on the second day, Liu Qingcao and the old man Niu went to the town with their things.

As always, the two of them had no communication, even if the old man Niu was going to travel far away, Liu Qingcao could only say "Be careful".

Sometimes, she herself feels that she is very boring, she doesn't know how to chat with others, and she doesn't fit in very well...

Now staying with the same taciturn old man Niu, now the two elder brothers, not to mention the second elder brother, are almost the same!
When he arrived in the town, the old man Niu helped Liu Qingcao deliver the things to Huibailou, returned to the place where the ox cart was kept, and handed the wooden sign to Liu Qingcao!
"I don't use the bullock cart, it is very obedient."

"Ah, okay, then how do you go?" Liu Qingcao was stunned for a moment, then took the wooden sign and asked Old Man Niu how to get to the provincial capital.

The old man Niu glanced at the ox cart, picked up the burden, turned around and left without saying a word, leaving her alone in the same place.

Seeing him like this, Liu Qingcao couldn't catch up with him anymore, so she had to turn around and go to Baihuilou to look for Ge Hongshan.

As soon as she entered Baihui Building, Lin Er greeted her and took her to the accountant to find Ge Hongshan.

When Liu Qingcao went in, she saw Ge Hongshan flipping through several ledgers with a smile.

Seeing Liu Qingcao coming, he got up and approached and handed Liu Qingcao the account book in his hand.

"Qingcao, I went to reconcile the account yesterday and came back, and I asked the old man Niu who delivered the goods to bring you a message. Here, take a look, this is the stewed meat account book of our Baihui Building for this month."

Liu Qingcao took the account book with a smile, sat on the chair, and turned it over. Just as she predicted, she would get a lot from the stewed meat in one month.

The accounts were very clear, and Liu Qingcao finished reading them in a short while and closed the accounts.

"Uncle Ge, it seems that the business of Baihui Building is very good, and I have taken advantage of it."

"We took advantage of it." After Ge Hongshan finished speaking, he took out a money bag from the side, put it on the table, and said again:

"This is the share of stewed meat and stewed vegetables, a total of 91 taels, please check the number."

Liu Qingcao took the money bag, opened it and took a look. Inside was a fifty-two silver bill, four ten-liang silver bills, and a broken piece of silver.

"No problem, Uncle Ge." Liu Qingcao put the money bag away and put it in her arms.

"Uncle Gerrard, have the people in the restaurant eaten enough braised pork recently?"

"How do you say? The business is still so good, and people can't buy it every day."

"That's ok, wait a while, I'm researching some other dishes, and there will be a substitute at that time, I always take one to eat, and I will get tired of it sooner or later."

Liu Qingcao had already prepared new dishes, but the stewed meat was gaining momentum, and if it was brought out early, it might be affected.

"There are new dishes? Green grasses are all your own thinking? It's too powerful, no, you are our God of Wealth, you have to protect it."

Ge Hongshan was so excited that he kept rubbing his hands together. If it was a boy, he would have embraced it by now.

"Yes, Uncle Ger, but it will take a few more days. In about a week, the new dishes will be available. At that time, I will bring them over for you to taste, and then I will talk about other things." Liu Qingcao nodded and put Said his own plan.

Ge Hongshan heard that there were still a few days to wait, and he couldn't wait.

"Tomorrow is fine. The arrangement here will definitely not affect the sales of stewed meat, Qingcao. Uncle Gerrard can guarantee this to you."

Seeing his eagerness, Liu Qingcao smiled.

"Gerber, it's not that I don't want to go, it's that the materials haven't been obtained yet. I'll bring them to you as soon as possible. Don't worry."

"Aha, this way, that's fine, then you come directly, I won't go out for a few days."

Ge Hongshan was so excited, although Liu Qingcao hadn't brought the food yet, he already believed that it was a good dish.

Liu Qingcao couldn't help being secretly happy when she saw that she looked just right.

After leaving Huibailou, Liu Qingcao walked on the street with a huge sum of money, from beginning to end, until she couldn't afford it anymore, and then stopped buying, buying, and buying.

Liu Qingcao took the things and went to the place where the ox carts were kept, took out the wooden sign, and paid four Wen for the storage fee to the steward.

The steward took the wooden sign and the copper plate, and led her to lead the ox cart out.

The things were put into the bullock cart, and Liu Qingcao sat at the front of the bullock cart, imitating the old man and driving the cow.

This cow is really as the old man said, it is very obedient, and she doesn't have to flick the whip along the way, it just walks back by itself.

Liu Qingcao was trembling at the beginning, but now that the cow is so smart and obedient, she is not so scared anymore.

When Liu Qingcao drove the bullock cart back home, Liu Jiangbei was holding a book in one hand and stuffing firewood into the kiln's firepit with the other.

"Jiangbei, it's ok, if you burn it again, it will be destroyed." Liu Qingcao approached, looked at the firewood in the pond, and felt the temperature outside the kiln. The temperature was very high. It is easy to fry the kiln.

Liu Jiangbei looked up at the firepit full of firewood, and then realized that he was reading too hard, and forgot about this. Fortunately, his sister came back in time, otherwise the kiln would be left to him.

"Sister, I..." Liu Jiangbei knew he had made a mistake, so he quickly apologized.

Liu Qingcao shook her head and spoke softly.

"Sister knows that you didn't mean it, so you can't do this next time. What if it breaks and hurts you?"

"I won't do it next time."

"I don't blame you, you are still young, but you have to concentrate on doing things in the future. The more dangerous things are, the less you can be distracted, understand?" Liu Qingcao patiently explained to him, hoping that he could understand.

Liu Jiangbei nodded, indicating that he knew.

Liu Qingcao smiled, took Liu Jiangbei's hand, and went together to move the things on the bullock cart back to the woodshed.

In the firewood room, Liu Qingcao stored a lot of things, including everything for food and use. Looking at the food and use on the ground and in the cellar, Liu Qingcao raised the corner of her mouth and smiled.

This is the country she worked so hard to build step by step, and she feels satisfied just watching quietly.

"Jiangbei, I'll take you to the school tomorrow. It just so happens that the school in the town is accepting students during this time. It's not too early or too late, just right."

Liu Qingcao took out a piece of blue-black cloth and compared it to Liu Jiangbei's body, thinking that Liu Jiangbei's body might not be able to bear this color.

During this time, when she went to the town, she saw that most of the students in the school were wearing blue and black cloth clothes. In order to keep up with the trend of the times, Liu Qingcao also bought a piece of blue and black cloth for Liu Jiangbei.

"Sister, are you leaving tomorrow? Uncle Niu is not at home, and my sister is alone during the day." Liu Jiangbei frowned, and finally spoke out what was in his heart.

His sister was alone at home, so he was still worried.

"It's okay, Jiangbei, don't you want to come back at night? If you don't come back, you will live in the school. My sister is not afraid of being alone. Go to the school without worry."

Liu Qingcao felt that her home was safe now.

People in the village are in charge of their own affairs, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being. People outside don't interact much, so there is no need to be so defensive. Wait a few days at most, and the old man will come back, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
