Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 325

The old salt worker stroked his white beard and said, "Have you forgotten that when we were making salt, what we were most afraid of was that the salt would agglomerate once it got wet and dried?"

"That's because the quality of the salt we made at that time was not good. Once agglomerated, it looked half gray and half white. Whether it was collected by the government or sold to private traffickers, as long as we saw the uneven color of our salt, we would call Pick our price, so in the past we had to smash the salt finely, and mix the gray and white together to make it look even in color.”

"But in the past few days, when I took the children to scrape the white salt we produced, I sighed several times how the salt produced by our chemical method can be so clean? The salt on the salt pond is naturally pure white. When it comes down, it's like that hundred-refined lime, so white it's dazzling!"

"If you want to show the difference of our salt, it's very simple as I said - why should such a beautiful white salt be powdered? Just take it out in pieces and sell it in pieces. People who know the goods will know the benefits of our salt at a glance. ! Other people’s salt can’t be made into such a beautiful salt block!”

Hearing the old salt worker's words, everyone was suddenly enlightened. How could they forget? Isn't this the most intuitive way for people to see how high the quality of the salt produced in their Niugang Village is?

Xie Bao jumped up excitedly.

"Let's try to make it quickly, first take ten catties of salt to make salt blocks, and then each take ten catties of salt to try to make medicinal salt and bamboo salt. We must give the reputation of our white salt in Niugang Village, Also save some face for those of us who come to Haizhou from the Supervisory Committee!"

All the salt workers agreed with a loud bang, full of energy.

Sun Xin didn't realize that Xie Bao and the others were holding back their energy in Niugang Village at this time. He felt that even if Xie Bao and the others could gain a foothold in Haizhou, it would take a long time to expand Haizhou's business. for a while.

Now that he has a foundation in Haizhou, even if he shows his ability in front of everyone at this time, he is not afraid. Anyway, the imperial court can't take back the land, so he is relieved.

After returning to Dengzhou this trip, Sun Xin became busy.

Fourth Sister Zeng gave birth in October last year. She was supposed to give birth in mid-August, but the baby in her belly was really anxious. It was only at the end of July that Fourth Sister Zeng said that she was not feeling well in her stomach. Xin took a look at Fourth Sister Zeng, and found that she seemed to be giving birth. He was not an expert in this field, so he quickly found a doctor in Sunji who specialized in medical treatment.

The doctor took a look and said that Fourth Sister Zeng might be about to give birth. After hearing the news, Sanniang Hu and Sister Gu came to take care of her. In fact, Fourth Sister Zeng was not short of people, but everyone was still very busy.

Sun Xin sent someone to inform Zengtou City quickly, and within a few days Zeng Nong also rushed over from Zengtou City.

After much tossing, on the third day of August, Fourth Sister Zeng finally gave birth.The whole process went smoothly, and Sun Xin had another son.

And after Zeng Sijie gave birth, Sun Xin began to have a headache for his eldest son, Sun Yu.

This kid is almost four years old this year, because he grew up in the Sun Family Village and was doted on by the whole Zhuangzi, but he has developed a very sociable character and is never afraid of strangers.Coupled with Hu Sanniang's strict discipline on him, the eldest son's character makes Sun Xin think that he is quite good, at least much better than when he was a child.

Xiaopang is lively and smart, and at the same time very polite, Sun Xin and Hu Sanniang like it.

But recently, there is one thing that worries Hu Sanniang, that is, Sun Yu always runs to Ma Ziliu's shadow puppet troupe from time to time.

At first Hu Sanniang thought it was normal for children to like to watch shadow puppetry, but just a few days before Fourth Sister Zeng gave birth, when Hu Sanniang, Sun Xin and the pregnant Fourth Sister Zeng arrived for dinner, Xiaopang suddenly climbed onto the chair very solemnly He told Sun Xin that he wanted to learn shadow play from Ma Ziliu.

Sun Xin looked at Hu Sanniang with his own eyes and was taken aback for a moment, then her face fell instantly.

Sun Xin immediately began to call the police in his heart, but he couldn't say anything in front of the dinner table as the head of the family. He smiled and encouraged Sun Yu, and asked Ya'er to take him out for dinner.

Feeling that the air pressure on the dining table dropped directly, Sun Xin felt a little numb.

People these days naturally look down on opera singers. In fact, Ma Ziliu is doing very well in Sunjiazhuang now. Originally, Sun Xin planned to let Ma Ziliu become a supervisor in the supervisory committee. He has made great contributions to Sunjiazhuang, especially It was in the propaganda team under Pei Xuan, whether the Supervisory Council would have any new policies, whether it was to promote factory discipline, reward water canals, or improve farming methods, the first batch of people sent out were shadow puppet propagandists led by the six apprentices of Ma Zi.

In the era when ordinary people lacked entertainment, the Supervisory Committee regularly organized the people to watch shadow puppets under the tree at the head of the village. After performing two consecutive plays, there were a few short stories made by Pei Xuan and the others to promote the new policies of the Supervisory Committee. The publicity effect was comparable. Every day, the supervisors of Zhuangzi yelled in their ears that the stereotyped essays of the supervisory board would be much more effective.

Even the first item in the report from Dulonggang and Zengtou City Supervisory Committee is to request that the shadow puppet performance team of the propaganda team go to Dulonggang and Zengtou City on a regular basis. Can not feel the care of the entertainment business of the Supervisory Committee.

But even though Ma Ziliu is so effective in publicity, everyone still has opinions on Ma Ziliu's entry into the top management of the Supervisory Committee.

Ma Ziliu is good at both handling and coming. Originally, Sun Xin planned to recommend Ma Ziliu to be a supervisor of the Sunjiazhuang Supervisory Committee, but when he heard that Ma Ziliu, a shadow puppet singer, could also be a supervisor of the Sunjiazhuang General Assembly, Everyone muttered.

Ma Ziliu is a very smart person. He knew that everyone had opinions on him, so he immediately resigned from the position of supervisor. Not only did he not become the director, he even became the commercial representative of the Sun Family Collection.

The Majia Shadow Puppet Troupe is the hottest shop in Sunjiaji. Whenever the Majia troupe performs a new series of plays, even dignitaries from Dengzhou will take a carriage to catch the evening theater.

After watching Maziliu’s play, I went directly to Sunjiaji to eat and stay. Now the restaurants in Dengzhou City that specialize in high-end gourmet food all ran to Sunjiaji to open branches, and the address I chose was specially in Maziliu. The rent price next to Maziliu's tile house has risen a wave.

But Ma Ziliu saw very clearly that even though he was already the most profitable boss in the Sun Family Collection, he was still an inferior actor. He was too public and would make it difficult for Sun Xin to do so.

So he directly declared to the outside world that he was in poor health and low-educated, and that he had no face to be a supervisor of the general supervisory committee, and he did not even become a supervisor of the branch of Sunjiaji and Sunjiazhuang. His only identity in Sunjiazhuang now is the Sunjiazhuang supervisory committee Members are the same as the most common bankers.

Sun Xinhao has done a lot for Ma Ziliu to be so sensible.

On the surface, Ma Ziliu is now concentrating on running his cottage, but his political sense is extremely sensitive. The few apprentices he has trained are all working in Sun Xin's supervisory committee. With them as the backbone, he helped Peixuan form a More than 30 members of the Supervisory Council mission group were divided into several groups to perform charity tours in various Supervisory Councils in Dengzhou.

And Ma Ziliu's son, Xiaoliuzi, first studied opera in Washeri, and then sent to Sunjiazhuang school to study. Now, because of his outstanding performance, he has gone to the Institute of Political Science and Engineering of Supervisory University. His wife, Liu, is also a member of the Sunjiazhuang Women's Federation activists.

In Sun Xin's view, this family is the actors in the system of Gen Zhengmiaohong in his supervisory committee system, and his status will definitely not be low in the future. It's just because people are prejudiced against opera singers now, so they look down on them.

Sun Xin himself has no objection to Sun Yu's wanting to learn shadow puppetry. A child of his age must be interested in singing, and he probably won't find it fun when he grows up.

He has met the disciples of the Six Sects of Ma Zi, and singing is not a job for entertaining. If you want to have some skills, you have to lose a layer of skin and suffer a lot.

And in the end, after learning it, he is also an inferior actor, what are you trying to do?
He reckoned that even Xiaopang and Ma Ziliu majored in nothing more than cultivating a hobby. When he grows up, he will definitely not be able to do this job. It's really not because he looks down on actors. You will feel the pressure from society.

But Hu Sanniang didn't think so.

The air pressure during the whole meal was very low. Sun Xin whispered to Hu Sanniang that it is not a bad thing for a child to like to learn opera, as long as he does not relax in reading.

Hu Sanniang nodded while pawing the rice.

But the next day, Sun Xin heard his wife beating the child early in the morning.

Sun Xin hurriedly put on his clothes and went out, only to see the child crying loudly.

Sun Xin didn't want to quarrel with his wife in front of his son, so he took her back to the house.

Sun Xin asked with a cold face that Hu Sanniang was also scared, and expressed his thoughts in all detail.

Fourth Sister Zeng was about to have a baby. Although Hu Sanniang said she didn't mind, she always felt that the main palace was worried about being seized power, and now the eldest son, who was originally Sun Xin's eldest son, actually said at this juncture that he wanted to marry her. If you want to learn to sing from others, how can you keep Hu Sanniang from getting angry?

Early this morning, Hu Sanniang asked Xiaopang to recite yesterday's homework, but Xiaopang couldn't recite it. Hu Sanniang found a shadow puppet hidden in Sun Yu's arms, and suddenly became anxious, and raised her hand to hit the child several times.

Unexpectedly, Sun Xin slept so lightly and ran out when he heard the child crying.

After hearing what Hu Sanniang said, Sun Xin's face became a little unhappy. He said that he didn't want to put too much pressure on Sun Yu, and Hu Sanniang agreed at the time, but now it turned out like this.

Sun Xin frowned and asked, "Little Fatty is only three years old this year, what lessons do you teach him?"
