Chapter 274 Receiving Vegetables
Chen Shengcai sent Dawen Dayu to tell the villagers about the gathering at the ancestral hall tonight.The villagers were very surprised when they heard this. Why did the village chief summon everyone?Nothing happened recently.Doubts are doubts, they still cook early, planning to find out after the meal.

Qinglu returned home, and Chen Bopi was waiting there.

"Mrs. Zhou, you have a spring face, but what's the good thing?" Chen Bopi sat on the grand teacher's chair, he woke up and found that there was no food at home, so he came over to grab a meal.

"If you want to make something good, what's the problem?" Qinglu chuckled, "Matchmaker Chen stays there, she will introduce you to good girls."

"Don't talk about Matchmaker Chen." Chen Bopi smiled helplessly, "When you mentioned her, I thought I had a headache and asked her to go to Tang's house to ask about relatives, and you were the one who asked."

"Why did you ask me to kiss you?" Qinglu sat down, she was very curious.

"Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously, my random excitement is just for fun." Chen Bopi chuckled, now thinking of the absurd things he did before, even he himself felt ashamed.

"Let's not talk about it." Qinglu picked up the teapot casually, poured a cup of tea and drank it down, "I found out what Matchmaker Chen meant just now, and she said that a basket of green vegetables costs three copper coins. Well. I was thinking just now, instead of setting prices for certain dishes, it’s better to count according to baskets, what do you think?”

"It's fine if you say it." Chen Bopi nodded, and suddenly laughed, "You really are a businessman."

"What's wrong?" Qinglu blinked innocently.

"Hmph, stop pretending to me. You can count all the dishes in a basket. When you get to the city, you don't have to do that. You pay the price for the dishes. Well, it's worth the money." Chen Bopi chuckled, "I'm I admire you more and more, you can think so much about any small idea, I am just worried that they will also think of some dishes and prices."

"Don't worry about this. People in the countryside will only work hard and don't have that much thought." Qinglu said, "We will continue to do this for a long time, and the initial cost must be calculated. After a while, we will pay for it." Folks, raise the price."

"Let's do it this way." Chen Bopi nodded, looked up at the chimney, there was no smoke at all, "I'm so hungry, your family hasn't cooked yet?"

"It's not that early at our house. If you're hungry, go home and cook it yourself." Qinglu snorted coldly, Chen Bopi closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, it's better to wait until cooking by yourself.

After dinner, Qinglu's family arrived at the ancestral hall, where most of the villagers had eaten and chatted there.Everyone is usually busy, and they are at home when they are free. Only those who work in the adjacent fields can communicate more, and now they are all talking.

When Chen Shengcai saw Qinglu, he said that all the villagers had arrived, so she could speak.The villagers were very surprised to hear that Qinglu had something to say. Does she need help?
"Folks, I, Tang Qinglu, greet everyone here today." Qinglu stood on the small platform built up in the ancestral hall, showing a leadership demeanor. Everyone sat up straight, as if something big was about to happen.

"I called everyone here today to collect the surplus vegetables from everyone's fields, what do the villagers think?" Qinglu said bluntly.

Collect vegetables?There was a lot of discussion in the audience, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Qinglu Gourd, so Chen Bopi hurried over.After eating, he felt a pain in his stomach, and hurried to squat in the latrine.

"How do you collect it?" Someone asked, and everyone looked at Qinglu curiously.

"I saw that there were a lot of vegetables in the fields of the folks. They couldn't finish them by themselves, and they lost and wasted. I thought, the restaurant in Tanping County might need them, so I collected vegetables from everyone and gave them to earn two copper coins. What about it?" Qinglu's voice was melodious and melodious.She thought about it, instead of letting everyone guess what she was doing with the vegetables, it was better to explain it directly.

"Qinglu, I advise you not to do that." Someone stood up and said, "It's time-consuming and labor-intensive, and you won't make any money at all."

"Thank you for reminding me, I'm just idle, I just want to do something to refresh my mind." Qinglu smiled gratefully at the man.

"Qinglu, we have agreed, a basket of three copper coins." Matchmaker Chen stood up eagerly, she really needed the money.

"No problem, everyone is the same, no matter what the dish is, a basket of three copper coins, if you are willing, you can register with me. When we need food, we will let everyone know. If you are worried, you can also watch it on the spot. Look, give money according to the basket." Qinglu climbed up Chen Matchmaker's pole.

Everyone heard that there are three copper coins in a basket, and they are thinking about how many baskets they can put vegetables in their fields. Every household has at least twenty baskets. Based on this calculation, this kind of business seems to be a good deal.After discussing with my family, they all agreed. Seeing that someone went up to register in front of Zhou Wenqian, I was afraid that I would be left behind, so I rushed up too. When there were too many people, it seemed crowded.

"Mr. Zhou, let me register first!" Matchmaker Chen and Sister-in-law Tian rushed up almost at the same time. pushing hard.

"Don't squeeze, register one by one." Cai Qi instructed everyone from the side.

"Mrs. Zhou, they are all interested, so why register? Wouldn't it be enough to go door-to-door?" Chen Bopi didn't understand.

"It's nothing to register, let's find out how many people there are in Chenjiacun by the way." Qinglu smiled, seeing everyone so enthusiastic, she was also very happy.

An hour later, Zhou Wenqian completed the registration one by one. According to a rough calculation, there are more than 200 households in Chenjia Village, which is not a small number based on two mu of land per person and ten baskets per mu.

"Qinglu, it's agreed. If you want to accept it, you can accept mine first. My house is close to yours." Matchmaker Chen walked up to Qinglu, "Your mother and I are sisters, don't forget!" Qing Lu promised again and again that she would be accepted as soon as possible, so she happily returned to her seat.

In order to convince the villagers that she is innocent, Qinglu prepared [-] copper coins, and gave one to each of the three guys. The man was quite embarrassed, and those who had the same idea did not dare to move.

Everyone looked at the copper plate in their hands and laughed.

"Okay, it's getting late, everyone, go to bed early, when we collect vegetables, it may not be in the morning, it may be in the evening, after we collect the vegetables, put them in the basket, and we will give you the corresponding amount of copper coins .” Qinglu ordered.

"No problem, we believe in you." Someone shouted from the audience, and everyone echoed.Things that should have been wasted can suddenly be turned into money, it doesn't matter what happens, the harvesting of vegetables is really smooth, Qinglu is a bit incredible.

Everyone chatted for a while and then left. They were all smiling when they left. They told Qinglu that they had something good to take care of, and Qinglu responded with a smile.
