Chapter 59 The Buyer

The three of them were stunned. They had never thought of buying someone, but their daughter was right. Now they couldn't spare any manpower to visit the shop. No matter what they said to outsiders, they wouldn't be as reassured as their own family, but buying someone would be a big deal. Not a small expense.

"I still have 300 taels of silver here, which is enough for our family to spend. Besides, after the fifteenth day, the batch of ducks raised by the villagers should be out, and our family has another income."

"Okay, listen to my daughter. When we have some free time after the New Year, we will go to the dental shop in the town to see if there is anything suitable. If not, we will go to Fucheng to have a look."

Su Yu felt relaxed. She only said she wanted to buy people, but she didn't say how many. It wasn't up to her to decide how many people to buy. She was very tired these days, and she had a lot of things to do at home. When the time came, she would have to Buy more.

The Su family celebrated the New Year happily, but in Wangjia Village, hundreds of miles away, the Su family's old house was gloomy and gloomy.Without the help of Su's second family, for more than half a year, the lives of the people in the old Su family's house were very unsatisfactory, and everyone did a lot more work than before.Just like today, if Mrs. Lian was here, they wouldn't have to worry about the work on the stove.

There is also the matter of Su Chen's study. Studying costs money, let alone going to the town to study.In a year, at least a dozen or so taels will be spent, and all the members of the family will not be able to earn more than ten taels of silver a year. This year is over, but what about next year.

"Boss, have you found out where your second brother and his family are now?"

"not yet."

"The conscience of your second brother's family has been eaten by dogs! You left me and your father behind, and the whole family went to live their own free and unrestrained life without thinking about our life and death at all."

In this case, ever since the Second Su's family left, Mrs. Su had to scold her several times a day, and everyone was numb.The old lady Su didn't feel against her will when she scolded, she completely forgot that two days ago, she also received two taels of silver pension money from Su's second son.

But no matter how they asked, the person who brought the money wouldn't tell them where they brought the money. They just released the money and left.

Even if Su Yu had been to the old house, she might touch her house based on the person who gave the money, so how could she give the person in the old house this chance.She couldn't believe that her father had arranged for him to do something, and she had spent half a tael of money on it. It was impossible for that person to tell the people in the old house about Xinglin Town, unless the old house was willing to spend more money.In Su Yu's view, this is impossible, the people in the old house are all Pixiu, they can only enter and exit.

After the Chinese New Year, it was the third day of the Lunar New Year, and all the people who came to work next door also came. Su Sheng wanted to continue studying at the clan school. Since there was really no room to store the bacon at home, he planned to move to a new house and start making it.The winter here in Xingyang Mansion is quite long. At least it starts to get warm after February, so more than a month is enough.

The Su family doesn't make bacon, but the Xu family is in a hurry, losing more than 100 Wen a day.After the Xu family discussed it, they asked Yang Ermei to come over to discuss with the Su family, planning to buy a recipe for stewed pork from his family. Anyway, the Su family didn't plan to sell it, so his family would probably sell it if they went to buy it.

When Yang Ermei brought Doudou over, mother and daughter were the only ones at home. Doudou could walk now, but she was still not very steady. As soon as they arrived at Su's courtyard, Xiao Doudou left her mother behind and ran towards Su Yu. Go, the little guy was running so fast that Su Yu was worried that he would fall, so he rushed over to pick him up.

"How many times has Auntie told you, please slow down, what should you do if you fall down?"

"road."

Doudou can only speak word by word now, and people who are not familiar with it really can't understand it.

"eat."

"You little man."

Seeing the two of them like this, Yang Ermei didn't care about it, and went to talk to Lian with a sewing basket.

"Er Mei is here, come and sit down."

Mrs. Lian didn't get up. They are all neighbors. They are not used to you being too polite.

Yang Ermei sat on the orange beside.

"What are you busy with, aunt?"

"I didn't tear the cloth years ago, but the clothes haven't been finished yet."

It would be a lie to say that I am not envious. Look at Lian's body, it is not newly made.

"Why are you not busy today, you are free to come over."

"It's not that busy. Dad Doudou is at home today. I came here to talk to my aunt."

Yang Ermei is a straight-tempered person and doesn't like to mince words when talking or doing things.

"Just tell me if you have anything to do. Why are you so polite to me?"

"Then I'll just say it, auntie, don't take offense. It's the brine business, and Doudou's father thinks it's good. My family wants to buy a recipe from your family. I don't know if it will work."

I didn't expect that Yang Ermei was talking about this matter. Lian didn't hear the head of the family tell her daughter, so she didn't know.

"You also know that your uncle is in charge of my family. I have to ask your uncle about this."

"That's the reason, if it doesn't work, it's okay."

"Then when your uncle comes back, I will tell you when he has a letter."

The two sat and talked again, and Yang Ermei took Doudou back, there was still food for more than [-] people at home, and the time to come couldn't be too long.

As soon as they left, Mrs. Lian called Su Yu over.

"Your sister Ermei came over just now and said she wanted to buy a recipe for brine from our family. What do you think we should do about this?"

"If Sister Ermei wants to buy it, just sell it to her family, but it will cost 20 taels of silver. If her family agrees, next time our family is in trouble, mother, please ask Sister Ermei to come over and learn from us."

"Is 20 taels too much?"

Mrs. Lian hesitated.

"Mother, helping was helping, but selling prescriptions is another matter. The Xu family has nothing serious, but people's hearts are the most untestable. If our family sells it cheaply, next time we will have another one." What kind of prescription, if their family wants to buy it, if ours is expensive, will his family have any ideas? Anyway, 20 taels of silver is not expensive at all. If it is sold in Taihe Building, I can at least sell it for 50 taels two."

Mrs. Lian heard the same thing.

"Then I will go to Xu's house later to talk to your sister Ermei."

"Well, don't worry, Mom, the Fangzi Xu family will buy it."

When Mrs. Lian went there in the afternoon, all three members of the Xu family were there. After some discussion, they all agreed. Although 20 taels of silver was a lot, I thought I could earn four or five taels a month, and the 20 taels of silver would be back within a few months. Yes, you won’t suffer any loss if you buy it.

"Since you agreed, next time my family kills the pigs, Ermei, you and Zhushan go and watch, and take a good look at how the pigs are braised. It's actually not difficult. You just need to write down the seasoning recipe."

"Okay, thank you, auntie."

"What's the matter?"

When Lian came home, Second Su had just heard his daughter finished speaking, and seeing that he had nothing to do, he went to work.

Taking advantage of not making bacon at home these days, Su Yu planned to make soap from the lard suet that he had accumulated not long ago. The two large iron pots at home boiled it for half a day, and then poured it into molds to cool it down overnight. Then take off the film and put it away.Su Laoer made dozens of molds, all of which were rectangular. The soap that had now peeled off its film was stacked piece by piece in a wooden box, which contained two large boxes.

After three days of work, I have finished making lard. I have made seven or eight boxes of soap. I plan to wait until the bacon is sold and sell it at the door of the store.

These days, the Su family has accumulated a lot of chicken and duck eggs, and Su Yu has made a lot of salted duck eggs. In the winter, Su Yu does not plan to hatch duck seedlings. The weather is too cold, and even if they hatch, the survival rate is not high. Might as well wait for the weather to warm up before hatching.

In the meantime, the batch of ducks raised by the Su family had already been taken away by Taihe Building, and it will take more than ten days.The first batch of ducks given to the villagers on credit has been over four months. By that time, trucks from Taihe Building will come and take them all away, and take them to various branches around Taihe Building. Although there are more than 6000 ducks, they can’t be divided into one shop. How many, so now the roast duck in Taihe Building has increased from the original two taels to five taels.
