Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

279 Chapter 279 I met an acquaintance

The workers in the field are almost ready, and the grain farm over there has also delivered grain, as well as bowls and chopsticks for 100 people from the grocery store.

"Hey, Boss Li, yesterday I thought I was delusional, but I didn't expect it to be you. Are you planning to go back to Yonghe Town and settle down in Nanzhi County?"

It turned out to be an acquaintance, the owner of that small grocery store in Yonghe Town.

When Li Changhui saw him, he was also surprised: "Boss Xie, why is it you?"

It turned out to be Boss Xie from the grocery store in Yonghe Town. Their excess taro, poultry, eggs, etc., even wine, were all sold to the grocery store.

In the past, he often asked the grocery store to help collect various seeds. In the past two years, the family has also grown rapeseed, and he also helped to find the rapeseed seeds.

Boss Xie smiled and signaled the guy behind him to move things: "Isn't this fate? I was planning to go back to town tomorrow. I was on the second floor of the store yesterday afternoon and saw Brother Li leaving."

"It's just that when I came down, Brother Li, you were gone, and I heard from the shop assistant that I'm going to deliver something to you today, so why don't I come here together?"

"Young master, where do you put this thing?" The guy was holding a stack of bowls and chopsticks, and he didn't know the direction, and the door was still closed.

"Oh, look at my memory, I forgot to open the door, thank you boss, just drive the ox cart to the backyard, it's closer to the kitchen from the backyard."

Li Changhui went to open the door as he spoke, Boss Xie signaled the man to drive the ox cart, and followed Li Changhui himself.

"Brother Li, why didn't you say you weren't in the town earlier, then I wouldn't bother to go back. In the past few years, if it wasn't for buying your family's food, I wouldn't have to go to Yonghe Town."

In the past few years, Li Changhui has often asked Boss Xie to help him search for things, and he has sold many things at home to him.

Of course, he didn't sell the wine as Li Changhui, but sold grape jam to the grocery store. After all, when they were in town, they had already used grape jam to cover the existence of wine.

In the past few years, the relationship between the two has gradually become familiar, and he has always known that Boss Xie's grocery store is definitely not just a small shop in the town, but he has never asked much before.

I didn't expect to meet here again now.

"I knew earlier that there are a lot of grapes planted outside this city. When I came back, I came to see it. I didn't expect it to be from your family."

Boss Xie followed Li Changhui into the house and looked up and down the yard. He had known about the vineyard for a long time, but the house was only built last year, so he hadn't seen it.

"I didn't intend to move here so early. It's just that my wife hopes that Yu'er can study in the city, so I decided not to go back."

The man drove the bullock cart to the back door, and Li Changhui went to the backyard to open the door. Boss Xie was curious and followed.

"Sister-in-law's idea is right. If you want me to tell you, you should have moved to the city long ago. How convenient this city is. By the way, Brother Li, judging by your posture today, you won't go back, right?"

"Not going back."

Knowing what Boss Xie wanted to ask, he said, "You want to talk about food? Don't worry, the pigpen and chicken coop will be rebuilt in a few days, and it will be the same as before."

"Okay, Brother Li is refreshing!"

Boss Xie clapped his hands happily: "If that's the case, then I'll go back and discuss it with my parents. Just send another steward from the town to go there. I won't go back. It just so happens that my wife is pregnant and I can stay with her in the city. "

This surprised Li Changhui: "Are you married?"

"I'm 22 this year. If I don't get married, no one will want me."

Uh, yes, it's not too young.

After opening the back door, I asked Boss Xie's staff to help move the bowls, chopsticks steamer, etc. to the kitchen. There is a well in the backyard with a lot of water in it, so there is no need to worry about water use.

While the buddy was moving things, Li Changhui chatted with Boss Xie for a while. It turned out that their grocery store had opened in every county and town below Guanzhou Prefecture.

Of course, there are several shops in Guanzhou Mansion. The grocery store like theirs earns a small profit, but there are too many shops, and the annual profits add up to a considerable amount.

Even if it is not considered rich and powerful, it is still easy to eat and drink.

Originally, I went to Yonghe Town just because I was greedy for fun. Later, because Li Changhui often went to their store to buy some of this and that, I stayed for a while.

Later, I found out that Li's chicken, duck, geese, eggs, vegetables and grains were all better than those of other families, so I decided to stay in Yonghe Town, not for anything else, but for the convenience of shopping.

It turned out to be a family foodie!

As for getting married, it happened several years ago. At that time, it was Li Changhui's first time shopping in a grocery store. During that time, he went back to the city every few days, just to go home and get married.

The eldest daughter is two years old, and now the daughter-in-law has another child in her stomach. She is hesitating whether to hand over the shop in Yonghe Town to her subordinates. Well, the Li family has also moved to the city.

Now it's all right, he plans to go back to the town in a few days to deal with it, and then he can stay in the county.

Li Changhui listened to his chatter, but he was thinking about wine.

The wine was only given to the Liu family in the county, so naturally they couldn't eat all of it. I found this grocery store because I thought of him helping to find rapeseeds, saying that they would only be available in rich places like Fuzhou.

At that time, he knew that this small grocery store must have connections in Guanzhou Prefecture, so after confirming that Liu's family had already opened up the connection to Guanzhou Prefecture, he brought wine and went to thank the boss.

As for why the Liu family had to wait until after the Liu family went to Guanzhou Mansion, it was also out of cooperative ethics, and they couldn't cut off their connections. After all, the Liu family ate more wine than Boss Xie.

Of course, even if it was Boss Xie, he never showed up, and he also approached him as a barbarian.

Unexpectedly, Boss Xie's family has such a wide network of contacts. Under the jurisdiction of Guanzhou Prefecture, there are a total of five counties. There are not many counties, but there are many small towns below.

According to Boss Xie, from Guanzhou Mansion to every small town below, there are their shops, which is really convenient if you want to sell something.

The most important thing is that the grocery store is very inconspicuous and full of miscellaneous goods. Most of them sell cheap goods, and they are rarely spotted by people. No wonder they can spread the business all over the Guanzhou Prefecture without making a sound.

While chatting, Li Changhui was about to go back to the city after the guys put all the things into the kitchen. The gate of the courtyard was not closed, just in case the aunts who were cooking later or the carpenters came over.

The yard on the left and right is still empty, and there is nothing to worry about.

The two simply went back together, and when they parted in the city, Boss Xie even sent out an invitation to invite him and his sister-in-law for a drink in the evening, and introduced her sister-in-law to her daughter-in-law.

Li Changhui didn't refuse, but was anxious to go home and didn't talk much.
