Chapter 31 Buying Land
They all nodded solemnly, expressing that they must not tell, even the eldest and second.

Mrs. Zhang soaked soybeans and made tofu at home, while Hehua went to the field to watch her peppers.Wu Jiafan followed her in a desperate manner.

When I opened the greenhouse, I saw some small buds growing inside. They were really small, and I couldn't see them unless I looked carefully.The lotus was very happy.Once the seedlings are alive, they can be transplanted into the ground.

She went home and took two buckets, and gave one to Wu Jiafan. Since he wanted to follow, he naturally had to help with something. Wu Jiafan was still very happy to carry the bucket, and the two came to the stream and each carried a bucket of water.

Sprinkle light water on the chili, neither too much water nor too little water, just hold it properly.Wu Jiafan watched the lotus watering, and felt itchy in his heart, and wanted to do it himself.But the lotus refused, "Go, go, don't make trouble, don't drown my pepper seedlings!"

Seeing his unhappy face, Lianhua had no choice but to give in and put the ladle in his hand because he was helping her to carry water, "Hey, why are you pouted? I just let you water it. Take it easy. If you kill my peppers, don't touch them again."

Wu Jiafan snorted, took the water ladle, thought of the warning from the lotus, and began to water these newly sprouted seedlings carefully and nervously.

"Hey, I said can you water it more evenly, didn't you see that the place was not watered?" Lotus mumbled and pointed to the dry place.

Wu Jiafan hurriedly twisted the bucket and passed.

"Here, here, yes, hey, and here."

Wu Jiafan is like a hardworking bee, shuttling back and forth around the pepper cultivation soil.Finally, under the command of the lotus, all the places were wet.The moisture content is just right.Lotus checked it all over.Nodding with satisfaction.According to this trend, seedlings will emerge soon, and then they can be transplanted.As long as the seedlings are successfully raised, the peppers after transplanting are easy to survive.

"Should we close the shed?" Wu Jiafan came over and asked, looking at the land he had watered himself, he was very happy.

"There is no need to lock them up today. It is necessary to let them receive the sunlight. Anyway, the light is not very strong now, so we will lock them up again tomorrow morning." Lotus looked at the current sky, the sun was almost down, and the light was not very strong.

He Hua didn't expect him to work so hard, he put away the two buckets and held them in his hands, waiting for her words and went home together, He Hua saw that his clothes were all wet, and the sweat was dripping down his face.Suddenly feeling sad, maybe because she felt sorry, she walked over and pulled up the corner of her sleeve to wipe his sweat.

Seeing her walking towards him, Wu Jiafan thought she was going to help him carry a bucket, but he didn't expect her to wipe his sweat, and suddenly felt a little at a loss.He stood there in a daze, not daring to move.There is a clear fragrance on the lotus, not like the smell of sweat from those boys.His face flushed slightly.

After Lotus wiped his sweat, seeing him looking at her like a fool, her face flushed, she thought he was overheated, so she hurriedly led him home.If the mother-in-law knew that she had abused her son, she wouldn't scold her to death.

Before Wu Jiafan could react from her tenderness, she held her hand again.The little one was jumping non-stop, and let the lotus lead him back in a daze.

Lotus looked back at him and thought it was funny, but she didn't know that she took him to sell.

When going to bed at night, Wu Jiafan tossed and turned unable to fall asleep, thinking of the smiling face of the lotus in his mind.She closed her eyes and tried to sleep, but became more and more awake.I don't know what's going on, but in the end it's all on the lotus head. If it wasn't for her, how could I not be able to sleep.

Although I slept very late at night, I got up early when I heard the movement outside.Wu Jiafan quickly put on his clothes and came to the yard, and sure enough, he saw the lotus and was about to go out.

Seeing him, Lotus asked, "Why are you up?"

"Aren't you going to build a shed today? I'll go with you." Mingming decided not to help her last night, but ran over eagerly today.Wu Jiafan didn't even know what happened to him.Anyway, she doesn't know what she thinks, so it's not a backlash.

Lotus can be busy alone.But it's good to have someone to help.Just ask him to go with you.

Wu Jiafan followed happily, then remembered something, and followed with a straight face.

Just buttoning the top of the shed, it didn't take long for them to finish.

After selling for two days in a row.More and more people know fermented bean curd.They all wanted to buy it, but they only made so much fermented bean curd before, and it was sold out quickly. Fortunately, Hehua came up with a way to shorten the fermentation time of tofu, which is to put some hay during fermentation to make it moldy as soon as possible.

Time is indeed shortened.Soon, fermented bean curd was sold on a regular basis, and at the insistence of Lotus, only one hundred bottles were provided every day.One is to ensure its value, and the other is that they are short of manpower. Dad has to go to the town to help, and he has to finish the work of the master’s house before leaving, so he can’t help much now. Wu Jiafan has to go to school, so it’s useless Yes, there are only He Hua and her mother-in-law Zhang, who are simply too busy.

Selling one hundred bottles a day, after excluding the cost, I can make a net profit of two taels of silver plus four hundred cash.

During these days, Mrs. Zhang finally experienced the feeling of counting money until her hands cramp.The mouth never closed.

"Lotus, did you see that we made more than two taels today." Mrs. Zhang said as she put the money in her pocket.

"What is this!" Her goal was not a small amount of money.

"What, that's a full two taels. It's not a big deal." Oh, I really can't see that Lotus has such a big heart.She wakes up laughing from a dream.These days I've been counting money while I'm sleeping.She didn't sleep well for several days.

They won't be fooled by the few taels of silver, right? He Hua thought to herself, she was hoping to make more money, and it would be bad if the Wu family only lived on these small coins.He said to Mrs. Zhang, "Mother, look at the other big families, who don't make hundreds or thousands of taels a day. When we start the brand of fermented bean curd in the future, I'm afraid we won't be able to make more money. Then you can buy anything!"

"But how can we compare with them!" Mrs. Zhang is very satisfied with the current situation.

Lotus knows that this is the cognition in the hearts of their little people, and just wants to live their little life in peace.I don’t want to say too much, it’s enough to get to that step at that time. People are always like this. Now they feel that earning two taels is too much. That’s because they have never earned so much. It's nothing.People always go to the top.

But now we have to go step by step. The most important thing at the moment is that their raw materials are not enough. During the period, she went to the mountain to pick a few peppercorns, and almost no longer grow. The remaining peppercorns don’t know what to do. I can’t support until the new Chaotian grows. Fortunately, people here are exposed to spiciness for the first time, so they don’t give a lot of chili powder. This is also the main reason for insisting on selling only [-] bottles.
