Chapter 161 Collecting Beans (5)

The scene was going on in an orderly manner. When the villagers received the money, they were all very excited. They never thought that these useless beans could be sold for money. This is a big deal for a family. A small fortune.

Because many villagers came to the scene, Ru Yi's original goal of stopping the purchase at [-]:[-] p.m. was defeated. In order to collect all their beans, this time was delayed for an hour to complete.

Ruyi picked up the account and calculated it, and found that nearly two thousand catties of beans were collected this time, and almost all the people in the village who had beans were collected, and this time just buying beans cost nearly ten taels of silver. The village can be regarded as a lot of money.

It was noon at this time, and the bright sunlight poured down from the sky, penetrated the lush branches and leaves, and sprinkled in Ru Yi's dark eyes. There were twenty bags of beans piled up under the big tree, and he couldn't help but sighed.

Hey……

These twenty bags of beans were much more than she expected. She originally planned to collect five hundred catties, and first made some tofu to test the water.

But I didn't expect that once they were collected today, the scene would be so hot, and nearly two thousand catties of beans were collected, which was four times more than she expected. In the middle, they couldn't find them because they didn't have enough change. Only then did the villagers give all the bean money to the villagers.

Ru Yi borrowed two ox carts from Uncle Wang’s house, and the two uncles helped to load the beans into the ox carts. Ru Yi felt that the two uncles were hardworking, so they gave each of them [-] Wen as labor expenses.

Yuan Shu packed up her things and got into the first ox cart. Yuan Liang liked to be with Ru Yi, so they sat in the second ox cart together. Then, with a wave of the rattan, only a "moo" was heard, and the two The bullock cart drove slowly towards the house.

The ox cart was parked in front of the house, and the family of four took a lot of effort to move the entire twenty bags of beans to the shed and stack them up, and then used wheat poles to make a circle around them to prevent them from being bitten by mice.

At this moment, the lunch that Qian Shi had already cooked had already cooled down, but the three of them were so hungry that they didn't wait for Qian Shi to heat up the food, so they just ate the cold rice voraciously, and stood aside Looking at it, Qian's heart ached.

Beans, the main material for making tofu, have been prepared, but making tofu is not simply a matter of having beans. It also needs a small workshop composed of stone mills, brine, stoves, etc. If there is no such thing, then tofu will Can't do it.

In order to make tofu as soon as possible, Ru Yi didn't want to delay for a minute. She planned to buy a stone mill after lunch, took a few bites of rice in a hurry, and then put down the rice bowl.

Seeing that she was eating so fast, Yuan Shu also ate a few bites hastily. After the two of them had finished eating, Yuan Liang hadn't finished eating. There are so few men with the strength to move a stone mill, so the three of them left the house in a hurry after Yuan Liang had finished eating.

Ruyi did not go to the town by driving the ox cart, but went all the way to the quarry in the neighboring village. The scenery along the way was beautiful, with green grass, shaded by trees, and fragrant birds and flowers, but she had no intention of admiring it. .

The quarry in the neighboring village is not far from Meiyu Village. Ru Yi knew about this place only after asking Yuan Shu. She said that the quarry was secretly mined by the villagers in the neighboring village, and the government officials didn’t know about it. Even the nearby villagers rarely know about it.
