Chapter 116
Although she didn't know exactly how much money Bailu had, she had a good idea of how much wild vegetables, bamboo shoots, and green vegetables the fields had produced during this period.
If her calculations are correct, Bailu should still have over 100,000 yuan in her possession.
Didn't you hear her say that we're going to start an orchard? That's a lot of money. If she doesn't hurry up and squeeze some money out of us to save, and she spends it all, then heaven will be out of control.
Seeing her mother's "insatiable" expression, Bailu smiled so hard her mouth almost reached her ears, but she still refused without hesitation.
Qin Xiu was extremely unwilling: "You just mentioned household expenses, including pig feed?"
"Do I get the money from selling pigs?"
"You...you wish!"
The egret shrugged and spread its hands, indicating that it was powerless to help.
Qin Xiu was furious, but there was nothing she could do about Bai Lu. However, she had been laughing in her dreams for several nights now that the family had this income. It didn't matter who had the money. Her only wish was that Bai Lu could spend money more slowly and save more.
The concept of saving money is deeply ingrained in their minds. Qin Xiu really feels terrible that she doesn't save her money in the bank to earn interest.
The third day of the third lunar month is auspicious for breaking ground, construction, building livestock pens, dismantling, logging, and praying for children!
Bai Jiang invited all the villagers from Dongshi Village who could come to his family's mountain.
The hundreds of chickens at home were so crowded they were almost depressed, so Qin Xiu chose an auspicious day to start construction on the mountain. The mountain in Baijiang was definitely over ten acres, but besides about ten lychee trees and about ten longan trees, there were only two autumn fruit trees and one mango tree.
The rest of the area is largely abandoned. If you want to raise free-range chickens, you need to level the land, build chicken coops, and fence it with wire mesh. Otherwise, the chickens will fly all over the mountains and fields. How can you catch them?
Clearing land is really time-consuming and tiring.
Moreover, it's a barren mountain with narrow roads, so even excavators can't get up there. We can only use manpower. The current wage is 200 yuan a day. There are 13 people in total, and two others are harvesting vegetables in the field. That job pays less, 150 yuan a day.
Qin Xiu subconsciously avoided calculating the money she spent that day, afraid she wouldn't be able to handle it.
A barren mountain was divided into three parts: Baijiang only occupied one-third, Uncle Bai Xiao occupied one-third, and Uncle Bai Feng from Second Grandfather's family occupied one-third.
Bai Lu originally planned to directly contract the barren mountain belonging to Uncle Bai Xiao and Uncle Bai Feng, since the area was large and several varieties of fruit trees could be planted. However, Qin Xiu grabbed her hand and pleaded with her not to try to get rich overnight!
She thought about it and agreed. After all, she didn't have much time to manage these things right now; Qin Xiu and Bai Jiang were mostly in charge. The opinions of the main workers should be respected.
"Brother Jiang, you've really made some big moves this year. You've planted a lot of rice, a lot of vegetables, and now you're getting fruit trees too. I also heard you say last time that you were going to contract the village's fish ponds, is that true?"
"There's no truth to this. If the price is right, then we'll take it on."
Bai Jiang chuckled.
"That's great! We're definitely going to make a fortune today! Let's get a piece of the pie too!"
The uncles and elders smiled and said auspicious words, but their eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Bai Lu and her two siblings: "There's a lot of work to do in the fields, shouldn't Xiao Chen and the others stay home to help?"
