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

Chapter 60 What is this for?

Meng Daishan was impatient, "Over the years, how many doctors have been hired, how many medicines have been taken, and how much money has been spent? Humph! Instead of wasting time on him, it is better to marry him a wife earlier, hurry up have a baby."

Cao Xuemei hated secretly, wishing to strangle this old thing to death, but she couldn't, at least not now.

After taking several deep breaths, he barely suppressed the raging anger in his heart, "What the master said is true."

Meng Daishan looked at her from the corner of his eye, "I will definitely not go back on my promise to my wife. If you pay more dowry, ask the housekeeper to arrange it. Keeping it will make you look good."

Cao Xuemei gritted her teeth and said, "Why don't you ask someone to hire someone directly? You don't have to beat around the bush with my brother-in-law to save you a long night and a lot of dreams."

She is not easy to dismiss, instead of bringing people here and talking about it for a long time, it is better to kill her with a hammer.

If Shen Changgui sees the mountain of betrothal gifts, things will become more serious again, and Shen Qing will have to agree even if he doesn't agree.

Meng Daishan was unhappy. He didn't want to make the appointment without banging gongs and drums. It would be best for the two families to settle the matter quietly. The girl also agreed, and it would not be too late to publicize it then.

But Cao Xuemei was angry in her heart, if he didn't obey, he was afraid that something would happen.

The common room in his house was missing just like that last time.

This time Meng Chun was going to come back, although he was lame and had a bad image, but no matter what, the Meng family would have to be handed over to him in the future, and his son could not be in trouble.

As for why Meng Daishan couldn't hold Cao Xuemei, he obviously didn't like it, but he wanted to take her face into consideration, that's unknown.

During the ten-day temple fair, the jars Shen Qing used to hold the copper plates were changed one after another, and there were three whole jars in the room.

On the last day of the temple fair, Shen Qing brought another ten kilograms of sesame oil, another ten kilograms of dried bamboo shoots, and two kilograms of tea to the White Horse Temple, so that Master Mingli's face would not look so ugly.

The Great Monk felt very sad, and always felt that this was a big loss.

Fortunately, Shen Qing knows how to do things and knows how to take advantage not in vain.

The great monk thought in his heart that the row of houses in front of this gate could be tidied up for the next temple fair and rented out, which would definitely bring a lot of money.

well!The monastery has a lot of expenses, so he, the housekeeper monk, has to plan carefully.

Therefore, it is not easy to do anything. As a monk, you cannot only think about eating fast and chanting sutras, otherwise you will not even be able to eat fast and will have to beg for food.

On the second day of the temple fair, Shen Qing asked Cao Dahai to catch the bullock cart and transport all the copper coins to the town's bank to exchange them for silver ingots.

The two boys counted the time for a stick of incense, and they finally counted.

A total of 56 taels plus 640 money.

There was definitely no need to find change. She had paid off the other people's wages last night. Daya and Erya each carried a large bunch of copper coins, about 1000 copper coins, and went home happily.

The salaries of several members of the Fan family were calculated together. For this reason, Shen Qing bought an abacus and learned the abacus from scratch. It only took one night to calculate the abacus very quickly.

Shen Hui saw that it was fun, so she followed suit. Unexpectedly, she got started faster, so Shen Qing left the accounting to her, as well as simple bookkeeping.

In fact, it is convenient and fast to use numbers to calculate, even children aged six or seven can do it.

Shen Qing had long thought about this day. He had previously taught his sister arithmetic and Chinese lowercase numbers, from one to ten. She had already learned them all and could write them, so keeping count would not be a problem.

Shen Hui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to share some of the burden with her sister.

In addition, excluding uncle's ox cart money and various miscellaneous expenses, the 56 taels were earned by the two sisters. Of course, the dozen or so taels of silver they had saved before were all in it.

However, the reputation of Guapian in the back of their home has also spread. This is thanks to Master Mingli, who likes to drink tea and discuss scriptures. Some squires or celebrities from local and other places came to see him and made Guapian tea in vain.

The shape of the tea leaves is like melon seeds, the taste is mellow, the fragrance is strong, if the orchids are like Hui, the new tea has just come out, the color is green and pleasant, it is really the best product.

There were people asking to buy them one after another.

Kong Kong is also a good person. He doesn't tell others where the tea comes from, but only says that he can buy it for him, so Baima Temple has become a sales agency for melon slices.

Who said monks can't do business?

Look at the old abbot of the White Horse Temple, who played tricks all day long to deceive a group of good men and believers, and willingly handed over money to make offerings. You can know that they are not really all empty.

There are many wild tea trees in the mountains, with different varieties and qualities, and only she knows how to fry tea.

When someone sees them, they want to share a piece of the pie, so more and more people go up the mountain to pick tea, and some people come to ask them specifically.

At this moment, there was an old lady sitting in the courtyard of Xiaoshen's house, with a basket beside her, which contained two pieces of bacon, I don't know how long it had been left there, the color...

"Oh, this small courtyard is really well cleaned. When the Guo family was here, they were slackers, and their lives became poorer and poorer. Unlike you two sisters, each of them is very capable. Girl, how old is this year? ?"

The old woman spoke vigorously, but the two little sisters of the Shen family who were busy in the courtyard were just perfunctory.

Shen Qing ignored her at all, and was about to change into the straw sandals and go to weed the vegetable field.

After the Qingming Festival, the vegetable seedlings in the garden grow wildly, the beans and cucumbers have to be put on shelves, the pepper fields need to be weeded and fertilized, and the sweet potato fields...

Although the business is profitable, the work in the field cannot be delayed.

Uncle Huo is in good health and can go to the ground without a walking stick, so he can no longer sit still. He often takes a small hoe and works in the nearby field, either weeding or fertilizing.

Fortunately, there are chickens and ducks at home, and the firewood ash is taken out every day and sprinkled on the chicken coop and duck coop.

It can be sterilized, and can also be made into farmyard manure after fermentation.

As for the two little piglets in the family, they have grown up quite a bit. Huo Lin is responsible for feeding the pigs and cleaning the pigsty every day.

Their family has good food now, three meals a day, almost all meals are dry food, and there are meat dishes every three days.

Even if it wasn't there, there was lard in the dish.

The grandparents and grandchildren of the Huo family were blushing, and Huo Lin even jumped a lot taller.

As for buying goods and delivering them, they always say hello in advance. The rice and grain ingredients at home are delivered every few days by the rice shop in the town. She only needs to pay for the errands, and it saves Huo Lin from going to town every day. run.

If you want to make money, you can't tire yourself down, this is Shen Qing's principle.

So Huolin had more time to help with the household chores.

Shen Hui was tying a turban on her head and was planning to go to the fields with her younger sister. Seeing that Mrs. Zou was still refusing to leave, she said to her directly: "Grandma Zou, Dongshan is not our family's, let alone the tea trees on the mountain. If you want to pick it, just go and pick it, you don’t need to tell us.”

Grandma Zou was a little unhappy, but she didn't show it on her face, "Although there are many tea trees, we have picked them and made tea at home in previous years, but we can only make some crude tea, not the Guapian tea you made, so , you can tell me where your tea is picked from, and I will take my granddaughter to pick it together."

Shen Qing thought it was funny, "You go up the mountain from here, go straight to the south, don't deviate in the direction, you will see a wild tea forest, that's it."

Granny Zou slapped her thigh, "You should have said it earlier! It's true that I wasted so much time here."

After speaking, get up and leave.
