Chapter 60
"Uncle, how many boards do you make every day? If you want to make dried tofu, you need to reduce the amount of tofu. The two kinds are similar. If you buy dried tofu, you don't necessarily eat tofu."

Business can't remain the same, the weather is getting hotter, if you can't sell it all, it will go bad.

"Xing'er is right. I also thought about cooking less. It doesn't matter what is left over. We can eat it ourselves. It was roasted in the fire that day, and it was delicious!"

"If it is fermented and then baked, it will be more delicious. I will teach my sister a way to make it today. If I sell leftovers in the future, I can do it this way. I am not afraid of spoiling it."

This is fermented bean curd, Ye Wei complained to her that day, their family ate tofu almost every day, it made them want to vomit,
"Every time I tell my father to do less, my mother will jump out and object, hey, your sister likes it quite a bit, but I can't stand it anymore, and the smell makes me sick."

Some people don't like to eat soy products by nature, and Ye Wei is such a person.

"Don't worry, there is a way of eating that you definitely like, it's different from those."

Fermented bean curd basically has no beany smell.

She is busy with the big house, Ye Ying is in a hurry at home, since she went to work in the town office, everything else is fine, but it is not easy to ask for leave. Busy feet don't touch the ground.

But the crops need to drink water, and when there is a drought, the land has to be watered manually. The eldest brother and the third brother are fine. After all, there are only three acres of land, but there are forty acres in the farm.

"I heard from Xing'er that hiring long-term workers is not as good as buying a house, and the houses in the village are also empty. If you can't live with people for a long time, it will be ruined."

Bai Shi tentatively said, if this was done in the past, it would have been unthinkable.

Buyer?It was the first time for Ye Ying to seriously think about this issue. Whether it was a long-term worker or a short-term worker, she was always a little worried if she didn’t have her own family with her, and she was from a villager, so she didn’t have much to say, but if she bought it back, it would be easier to arrange. .

However, this matter has to be discussed with the child.

"I'm off to work, Xing'er is back, let her wait for me at home, let's work it out."

As soon as he left, Ye Xing returned home. When Bai saw him, he hurriedly said:

"Oh, I'm back from a busy schedule. Your father just finished his nap, and he's so worried. What will happen to our land? If we don't water it, the seedlings will wither."

Chungeng was helped by Luo's family. After this banditry, they will definitely not be able to return to the village.

"I'll go to the dental clinic. I heard that a new group of people has arrived recently. It seems that some officials have been questioned. Many of them are servants of Zhuangzi."

"The dental office is next to the town office, let your father go and have a look."

What the family wants is crop handles, but don't bring back a bunch of slaves, it's useless if they don't know how to farm.

As soon as the father and daughter met, they quickly reached an agreement. With Xue Niang's precedent, Ye Ying was not too resistant to employing people.

There are quite a lot of people in the dental clinic, but they sell more and buy less, because the disaster year has just passed and many people have been displaced. In order to survive, selling themselves into slavery is also an option.

"Hey, Master Ye, are you coming to see me too?"

"Don't dare, just call me old brother. Isn't it impossible to go back? The land at home is almost abandoned,"

"That's a coincidence. There are many men in the backyard who used to farm the land. Go and see?"

When they came to the backyard, there were quite a few of them. They squatted along the wall in a crooked manner. Ye Xing glanced at it and shook his head. It can be seen from his behavior that these people Too oily.

"Is there a family like that? My family has a Zhuangzi. They live together and take care of each other. We don't have to worry too much."

It is a problem for a bachelor to eat and do laundry. The men here, no matter how poor they are, seldom do these things.
"Yes, yes, you come with me."

Yazi smiled happily, and hurriedly took them to the other side. It’s hard to sell a family. Many of them have old people and children. Who would buy it if it’s not a labor force?

Sure enough, the other yard was full of piles, and there were many children of different ages, some in his arms, and some thirteen or fourteen years old. Ye Xing's eyes were attracted by an old man.

The years have left too many traces on his face. Even in such a situation, his body is still clean, his waist is straight, and his hair is even more undisturbed. He is wrapped in a patched cloth towel, There is no cigarette pouch around the waist that most old people have, and he holds a rattle in his hand.

Yes, not far from him, there is a young woman holding a child, next to him is an old woman, sewing something in her hands, with a kind face, if it is not in this kind of place, there will be a kind of time Quiet means.

A little farther away from them were two men who were discussing something with their heads bowed, and a little girl in her teens was sitting in front of the old woman's lap.

"Do you know how to farm?" She walked over and asked,
The man raised his head and looked at her seriously,
"I went to the fields with my father when I was five years old, and I can do all the work in the fields."

His tone was steady, and there was no expression on his face, but the two sons immediately raised their heads and looked at her expectantly.
"My family has a farm with [-] acres of land. The family doesn't care about it. Can your family plant it?"

Not to mention three men in [-] mu, even if there are three more, it will not be able to grow.

"It can be planted, but it is necessary to hire short-term labor when the farming is busy, especially for harvesting and planting. Farming time waits for no one."

He was telling the truth. Watering and weeding can be solved by diligence, but autumn harvesting can't. A heavy rain can ruin a year's hard work. It is impossible to gamble. It can be seen that they really want to have a home. But still chose to tell the truth.

"Miss, I, I can also go to the ground. Really, I am no worse than a man." The woman holding the child hurriedly interjected, and then looked at the man fearfully.

"It's hard to hire part-time workers. If you're busy, you're always busy. You can make up two or three. But where can you find more?"

"You can book people far away in advance. Some places are cold, and the crops mature late. They come out to be farmers. The harvest here is almost complete. If you go back to collect your own, there will be no delay."

Well, it's a success, she nodded in satisfaction,
"Are they your sons?"

"Yes, the seven members of my family not only sell, but also have two sons and a daughter, daughter-in-law and grandson."

Seeing that she was tempted, Yazi hurriedly let her and father outside,
"This old man is very tough, he is not too old, he is in his forties, he looks old, he is the slave of the criminal minister Xu Zhao, and he manages Zhuangzi for him."

It can be seen that Yazi doesn't like him, but this experience is very good, he knows how to farm and manage.

Ye Xing smiled and said that she wants this person, but she still has one last test,

"My family is originally a farming family, not a wealthy family. It should be no problem to have enough food, but I can't talk about other things. If you want, I will pay for it."
