Make a lot of money!I got rich in the year of famine

It's almost June now, and it's time for the ducks to be put out for sale. Unless they are saving eggs for laying, everyone will have to sell the first batch of ducks, and then buy a batch of ducklings later, so that they can be fed until the twelfth lunar month. .

"Well, the ducks need to be fatter, and we need to hire two helpers to kill and pluck them. See if there are any suitable candidates."

Boss Fan thought for a while and said: "Young girl, remember what I just said. If you don't mind the two families whose houses were destroyed, please ask people from those two families to come over and help. As for the wages, you can pay them as long as you like." .”

Shen Qing said: "Don't your Cuicui want to earn wages?"

Boss Fan shook his head, "Cui Cui has to stay at home to get married. Besides, my house is a mess and she has to take care of her grandma, so she can't leave."

Shen Hui asked in surprise: "Why is it so sudden? Where is the husband's family that Cuicui mentioned?"

Boss Fan lowered his head in embarrassment, "It's in the town, not far away."

Shen Qing understood as soon as he saw his expression, "Uncle Fan, you can help me choose the candidates. There are some coins here, take them."

Boss Fan waved his hand, "No need. When I find the person, you will pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. Once the money is paid, I won't get involved." He didn't want to make any difference, and he didn't want to do as she said. Taking kickbacks for a pound of money was too complicated for him to do.

Seeing that he was resolute, Shen Qing stopped trying to persuade him, "Okay, then you will be a broker. We will use the term intermediary. From now on, you will be my intermediary. Then you can take this hundred coins first."

This time Boss Fan did not refuse.

On the afternoon of the day he got the money, he found a helper.

The two young girls were about the same age as Luo Qin, but they were much rougher, with either freckles or yellow spots on their faces.

Mr. Fan introduced: "Her name is Chunju, she is the eldest daughter of your uncle Wang's family on the mountain. Their family was hit the hardest. Everything was lost. The family's food and drink were all gone. Her mother said that no matter whether she had wages or not, as long as she had Let her work with you here if you have a bite to eat.”

Shen Hui was horrified when she heard this, "This is impossible. Since it is work, our family will not deduct her wages."

Boss Fan sighed and shook his head, "The eldest lady doesn't know how miserable their family is. Chun Ju, you can tell the eldest lady yourself!"

The girl named Chunju started to cry before she could say anything, "My father was washed away by the flood from the mountain. He was neither alive nor dead. My family still owed money to the Sun family in the town. When Chun Shang came, I bought three little pigs, hoping to raise them and pay off the debt by the end of the year, but who knew it would turn out like this. If the money is not paid, my mother will have to sell me to get some money for an emergency."

Boss Fan added, "The money that the Sun family owes can be doubled several times with interest. If we don't pay it back this year, I'm afraid we will never pay it back. There is also Xiao Tao, whose family is similar. In order to give her brother I borrowed a lot of money to get married, but there was no interest, but now I will..."

"Stop talking." Shen Qing's face was calm, not showing any pity, but rather cold.

There are many poor people in this world, and after this flood, there will only be more. But she is not a Bodhisattva. She can't even take care of herself, so how can she pity others.

Boss Fan was stunned and looked at Shen Qing, not knowing what to say.

Shen Qing said: "The two of them can stay, but the wages will be settled monthly, five hundred cash per month, including food and accommodation. Is that okay?"

Boss Fan beamed with joy, "Okay, of course. Why don't you two thank Miss Shen quickly?"

"Thank you, miss!" Neither Chunju nor Xiaotao knew how to salute, so they had to bend their knees slightly.

Boss Fan wanted to say something more, but Shen Qing had no patience anymore and urged him to contact Duck quickly.

Before the ducks come, you have to make some preparations.

She doesn't even have a house now, but she is still very motivated.

With two more helpers, Shen Hui can concentrate on cooking, while the others, including Luo Qin, are all deployed by Shen Qing.

Originally, Shen Qing didn't plan to do everything by herself. She wanted to make money, but she wouldn't exhaust herself to death.Since wages are paid to encourage people to come, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

Although there are wooden barrels, not too much roast duck comes out of each barrel.

The first day is just a test. If it succeeds, you will have to find Cao Yong to customize the roast duck bucket.

The two newcomers were assigned to collect firewood. After the flood, there were branches and dead firewood scattered everywhere. They just needed to collect them. It was not difficult.
When there are too many, they are bundled with ropes, carried back, and piled in a makeshift firewood shed.

When the sun is good, spread them out to dry. After drying, they must be stacked to avoid getting wet by rain again.

Shen Qing drove the donkey again and went back to the mountain hut with Luo Qin and brought back several large basins.

When Boss Fan came with the duck sellers, Shen Qing saw that the ducks were about the same size and there was no need to weigh them, so he priced each duck according to the price and collected them all.

Shen Hui held the money jar and counted the copper coins to them on the spot.

After receiving the cash, all the farmers were moved to tears.

In times of great disaster, there is no such good employer who can exchange livestock into cash and return it so readily.

Huo Lin collected hundreds of ducks at a time. Huolin cut bamboo temporarily, surrounded a small courtyard with Luo Qin, and built a shelter from the rain as a shelter for the ducks.

Shen Hui was troubled by the noise from a group of ducks and said worriedly: "How long will it take to sell so many ducks?"

Luo Qin also thinks this is simply fantastic. Can you get rich overnight with these ducks?
What a dream!
But soon, they won't have to worry anymore.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and this thing needs to be baked and eaten immediately, and cannot be left overnight.

So they got up and started working in the early hours of the morning.

Place two firewood piles in the open space for lighting.

Chunju and Xiaotao were responsible for butchering the ducks. Today they slaughtered eight in total. They had to pluck the feathers under the weak light. They took out all the groceries in the duck's belly, as well as the duck's feet and duck heads, and piled them in a basin. Have a plan.

Duck feathers are difficult to clean. In modern times, they use rosin to glue them, but they can't use them. Even if they can, they'd better not use them as much as possible!

Shen Qing plans to find someone to make some small tweezers to facilitate hair plucking.

But today I can only use my hands to pull them out one by one.

Shen Qing also assigned Luo Qin a job and asked her to make breakfast.

Although Luo Qin's family was well off, they were not immune to the sun. Except for the poor farm work, everything else was pretty good.

After cleaning the ducks, adding marinade and marinating for an hour, Shen Qing tinkered with some spices and stuffed them into their bellies.

The charcoal fire has been prepared a long time ago, and there is a wheel-like device inside. The duck is hung on it, and it requires manpower to keep turning, so that the force on the duck can be evenly distributed.

When the sky was slightly bright, the roast duck oven started to turn. This job was handed over to Huo Lin, and several others sat in the simple courtyard to have breakfast.

Luo Qin made a pot of porridge, including rice and sweet potatoes. The color was a bit ugly, but the taste was okay.
