Don't panic, the family boss is busy farming

Chapter 428

Xu Yue took the abacus between the two of them, and took out an import tax account book from Gao Gao's account book.

Daniel's eyes lit up when he saw Xianbei's words marked on the ledger.

"This is the tax account book for goods purchased by Xu Jiajun and Xianbei last month. According to the data on it, we can calculate how much money Xianbei people made last month." Xu Yue said slowly.

When Daniel heard this, he immediately became interested.

He watched the small Juyong County turn into its current bustling appearance little by little, and saw businessmen from all over the street walking around, and naturally, he got a glimpse of many things from the conversations of the businessmen.

For example, Xianbei merchants made a lot of money with Xu Jiajun.

Another example is that Xianbei has now established a textile factory with the help of the Xujiajun Chamber of Commerce.

There are many more, but going to school every day prevents Daniel from getting more information, so these doubts are all in his heart, and he has not yet received an accurate answer.

Seeing that Xu Yue was going to send such important data to him in public, Daniel was stunned for a while before he realized it. He quickly sat up straight and listened attentively to Xu Yue explaining the beads on the abacus.

"The abacus is the same as the multiplication formula you learned. There is also a formula. One goes to one, two goes to two, nine goes to nine, one goes to five to four, two to five goes to three one to go to nine to one, and two goes to eight to go to one."

The formula is very long, but very regular and not difficult to remember.

Xu Yue read it once, and Daniel read it again, and then silently repeated it in his mind, and almost remembered it.

While memorizing the mantra, Daniel watched Xu Yue move the beads, and suddenly felt that the sound of the beads was so beautiful.

Hearing that he was a little bit up, the crackling in his mind made his impetuous heart quiet.

Look at the hand on the abacus that has deliberately slowed down. It is slender and soft, with a thin layer of calluses on its fingertips, which still does not diminish its beauty.

"Guru~"

Daniel swallowed uncontrollably, he suddenly remembered the scarlet scene of blood gushing out when the owner of this hand used it to kill someone!
Daniel has seen Xu Yue kill people with his own eyes, but the strange thing is that he can't hate her, and he doesn't think she's scary because of it.

Her eyes were always so peaceful and firm, as if everything she did, including killing people, was correct.

Daniel was afraid of feeling like this. He was afraid that he would not hate the Xu family, so that he would be sorry for those clansmen who had died.
"What's the matter?" Xu Yue tapped on the desk in front of Daniel, saw him looking over in a daze, opened the ledger,
"I've demonstrated it to you just now, you can do the same as I just did, and calculate the sum on the first page."

"Well, good." Daniel hurriedly put away the messy thoughts in his mind, took a deep breath, and began to plan.

He is very smart, and he has learned basic arithmetic at school, just simple addition, and he can do it with two strokes.

Amid the crackling sound of beads colliding, Xu Yue heard Daniel say: "The total is 20 nine!"

Xu Yue took away the wooden ruler pressed against the total, and what was written on it was exactly what Daniel said.

"Next page." Xu Yue turned a page and signaled Daniel to continue.

The first page was relatively simple, but on the second page there were a few more deposits, and Daniel's movements slowed down significantly.

During this period, Xu Yue got up to make milk for the twins, and had fun with herself, so that the two little ones, who were very worry-free for adults, were fed well.

The sky was getting dark, and Xu Jiajun came to report. Xu Erniang, Xu Dalang, and Wang Pingping didn't go home to eat, and let her eat first.

"Then shall I serve the dishes?" Aunt Xing asked outside the kitchen door.

Xu Yue nodded.

Fortunately, Aunt Xing knew that several people in the family might not be able to get together, so she didn't prepare too many dishes, otherwise it would be wasted.

Three dishes and one soup are served on the table, freshly stir-fried seasonal vegetables, fried tofu with minced shallots and minced meat, braised pork, and vermicelli in chicken soup.

Ever since Wang Youliang's farm was reproduced in Shanggu County, there has never been a shortage of chicken and duck in the city.

Pork is rationed, but it is their own farm after all, so even if Xu Yue, the leader, does not explain this priority to food and drink, Wang Youliang will keep it for her.

As for the fans, they were transported by Gongsun Hao from Jiaozhou.

Xu Mei, Xu Nai and others not only managed the manor in Jiaozhou in an orderly manner, but also made the vermicelli and rice noodles that Xu Yue had been talking about for a long time.

But the quantity is small, and only Yuyang County sells it.

Shanggu County buys goods from Yuyang, and as soon as they are put on the shelves, the fans are sold out in an instant.

It's not that everyone likes to eat vermicelli so much, it's just that there is a shortage of food types these days, and people who like to hunt for novelties can't help but want to stock up on these fresh products.

Beidi people still like the hot, soft big white flour steamed buns in Xujiajun Baozi Shop the most.

This year, hybrid rice was promoted throughout Youzhou. Now that the autumn harvest is over, the grain tax has been collected, and with the increase in business tax this time, Xu Jiajun's economic situation has been greatly eased.

Coupled with the grain brought by Gongsun Hao from the south, the Xu family's army has recovered from the difficulties in the first half of the year.

It’s just that the big infrastructure is a gold swallowing beast. There are too many places to spend money, and more and more people have to support, so we have to continue to work hard to make money!

Aunt Xing filled the rice, set the chopsticks, and whispered into the room: "Dinner is ready!"

Xu Yue called Daniel, and Daniel just finished his calculation, and replied excitedly: "It's 19, am I right?"

Xu Yue smiled slightly, and took away the wooden ruler, revealing the concealed numbers.

"I got it right!" Daniel stood up happily, "Dining and eating, it smells so good, today we have chicken soup fans!"

He loves chicken soup fans the most!

Aunt Xing shook her head and laughed, Xu Yue shrugged her shoulders, glanced at the twins, saw that the two siblings were tired from playing and fell asleep next to each other, she covered them with a thin blanket, and then came to the dinner table, and the three of them had dinner together.

Dry rice is not active, there is a problem with thinking!
Holding the rice bowl, Daniel first picked up the vermicelli with two chopsticks. The vermicelli soaked in the chicken soup was very tasty. After a sip, it was smooth and soft. The freshness and sweetness of the chicken soup was mixed in the vermicelli, which was delicious.

The fans ate two big mouthfuls, and Daniel put the braised pork and green vegetables in the bowl again. He took a big mouthful with the rice, and his cheeks bulged, like a hoarding hamster.

Compared with him, Xu Yue's movements are considered elegant, but they are not slow at all.

When the Xu family eats, there is basically no sound on the dining table, only the sound of grilling rice.

Cooking, they are always serious!

Having a full dinner, this is the happiest moment of Daniel's day.

He is so happy that he often forgets his identity, thinking that he is just an ordinary kid in the Xu family army, eating, drinking, having fun, and going to school well, and being mischievous once in a while is fine.

Unfortunately, he was soon pulled back by reality.
