The story of Princess Lenggong's farming

Chapter 162

"Tu Niu, this is really delicious. I think the eggs are delicious after being fried like this. What a waste to put so much salt?!" He Axiu really felt distressed and couldn't help saying.

"Mother, if you are not willing to put salt, the egg will not be salty, and it will not taste good..." Shen Sisi smiled and said: "...When the oil comes out, mother will know, and I will have to sell this at that time." For five to ten cents a piece, it’s no big deal to spend some salt, and then I have to rely on my mother and Xiaohua to help pickle it, don’t be reluctant to part with the salt, otherwise the duck eggs will spoil..."

"Ah, why is it so expensive?!" He Axiu said, "Okay, then I'll do what you did just now, but it's so expensive, will anyone really eat it?!"

"Of course someone ate it..." Shen Sisi smiled and said, "Mother, don't worry about it, as long as no one sees how it's done, it's my job to sell things..."

"Okay..." He Axiu said with a smile: "In the future, when Lao Gen brings some, I will marinate it, and then let the Four Treasures label each jar with the date, so as not to confuse and open uncooked salted A jar of duck eggs..."

"En." Shen Sisi replied with a smile.

But Niu Xiaohua said worriedly: "...Tu Niu, I think this is quite simple, like this, maybe people can pickle it without learning it."

"Of course we will, but it will be later. We will sell salted duck eggs first, and then we will sell preserved eggs. Salted duck eggs are easy to figure out, but preserved eggs are not so easy to figure out..." Shen Sisi smiled and said: "You guys Just pay attention to some, if people think about it, there is nothing you can do, there are so many businesses in this world, how can you do everything, it’s okay to give some to others to do..."

"That's true..." He Axiu was quite open-minded, mainly because she thought it would be nice to have the present at home, and she didn't force some things.

After thinking about it, Niu Xiaohua also responded, saying: "...Okay, my mother and I will avoid being messed with."

The two smiled and went to do other work.

Shen Sisi counted the days, with white wine soaking it, it is estimated that the egg yolk will be oily in half a month to a month.My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

She is indeed a foodie, but people who are reborn at the top of the food chain naturally want to eat, otherwise, wouldn't they have let down their short life of less than a hundred years.

When more duck eggs are marinated, it will be another income.

What a beauty.Save money, not too much money, the more the better.

Only in this way can she upgrade. Although she has already reached the second level, the ingredients she needs are really... very expensive, and there is absolutely no way to do it without money.

Hey, one of the great pleasures in life, making money, is of course for enjoyment.Food is naturally the most important enjoyment.

It took nearly a month to sort out the wasteland before it was completely completed.The workers in the village also asked Zhong Gensheng about where the sorted out gravel piles were. After discussing with Shen Sisi, Zhong Gensheng piled them up on a piece of wasteland in the back, thinking that they might be useful in the future. , at least a gravel road or something can be added around the workshop, and it is easy to get in and out. Otherwise, the mud road is muddy in rainy days, which is really inconvenient.

Those broken stones filled up the small wasteland.

Zhong Gensheng smiled and said: "...there are so many things, I'm afraid there will be no need to buy stones for the auxiliary road in the future."

"That's actually..." Shen Sisi smiled, and planned out the blueprint again, saying: "...Father, when the foundation is being laid, a house needs to be built in this place, it must be ventilated from all sides, it must be strong, and there must be a stove inside. The shape of this stove, Dad, let me draw it for you..."

Zhong Gensheng concentrated on looking at it, and said: "...According to the size you mentioned, what is such a big stove for?!"

"The roast duck..." Shen Sisi smiled and said, "There are two rooms for roast goose and duck, one is for stewed meat and roast goose, and the other is for the stove. The back is used as a firewood room for firewood. It’s convenient, the firewood room needs to be bigger, there will be more places to use firewood in the future..."

Although the shape of the stove is weird, Zhong Gensheng still smiled and didn't ask any more questions, just said: "Okay, I'll start the stove like you said, I'm just a local girl, will the stewed meat at home be moved here in the future?! "

"Well, of course, it is also convenient for management. There are too many people coming and going in and out of the house, so it is inconvenient. In the future, I will strictly manage this workshop..." Shen Sisi smiled and said: "But the stew is to be made at home Yes, the four big stoves at home will still be useful when the time comes, and I have a lot of family members, so it’s good to keep them for cooking. After Dabao has a baby, I’m afraid the stoves won’t be enough..."

Zhong Gensheng laughed when he heard this, and said: "Okay, that's good, but how many stoves do we need for this house?!"

"Let's start with four stoves first, and save some space. It won't be enough in the future, and it will be convenient to start again..." Shen Sisi smiled and said, "Four stoves are enough. I want to sell seasonings in the future, and I am so busy every day. I can't be too busy making stewed pork..."

Zhong Gensheng naturally had no objection. As soon as he took the blueprint, he went to the wasteland to discuss with the workers to do it. He was very active. After all, all these should be finished before the autumn harvest. .

As soon as he discussed with the people, they responded with a smile, and said with a smile: "Your family's land of about [-] mu is huge. If you build a house and dig a pond, there is still a lot of space left..."

"Yes," Zhong Gensheng also said with a smile: "Tu Niu said, keep it for now, and if it expands in the future, I will build some houses..."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this. God knows that they worked in the past, at most part-time jobs, and they didn't have much money a day. It's not like the current construction period is not only long, but now the Zhong family will definitely have to build a house in the future. Looking for them, fifty cents a day is quite a lot. After working for a month now, one person has already earned one and a half dollars. Now it takes at least two months to lay the foundation, build a house, and dig a pond. Everyone earns nearly five taels of silver, who is not happy? !

Immediately, everyone laughed so hard that they couldn't see their teeth, and ah, the Zhong family might have to do something else in the future, so they shouldn't look for them again.

Everyone laughed a lot, and said: "We have experience in digging ponds and wells, and we will definitely do it well for your family..."

After hearing this, Zhong Gensheng smiled and said: "That's a good thing. When the construction period is over, our family will treat everyone well. Please work hard and help our family to complete the work before the winter..."

"Okay, that's for sure..." Everyone's eyes lighted up, and they laughed. The Zhong family's food is really unspeakable, so a curious person asked: "It's not like your house was built for use. Come to live, this is?!"

Others also responded: "Yeah, we also wanted to ask a long time ago, what are you building it for?!"

Zhong Gensheng smiled and said: "Using it as a food workshop...there may be a shortage of manpower at that time. Tu Niu wants to recruit some capable people from the village to work for our family, and the wages will still be the same..."

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they said with a smile: "Whether your family wants a man or a woman, I am strong, and my wife is also quite capable, let's count it..."

"My house is too..."

"..."

Everyone talked in a hurry.

Zhong Gensheng smiled and said: "...I can't agree now. The recruitment is a checkpoint of our local girl. You also know her temperament..."

Everyone laughed and said: "Then we will all go to Tu Niu to talk about it."

How much is one tael and a half of silver a month? !It's 18 taels of silver. If you get a job as a long-term worker in the Zhong family, the family doesn't have to work hard to farm the land, let alone rent the land to do it.

Such a good thing, which one is not willing to fight for it? !

Someone even asked Zhong Gensheng how many people he wanted to recruit, Zhong Gensheng said with a smile: "At that time, it also depends on whether the business is good or not. If it is easy to do, there must be more manpower. If it is not good, naturally there will be fewer manpower." of……"

Everyone knew that in order to get this job, everyone became more capable, so the foundation of the Zhong family was laid extremely quickly, and the efficiency was really amazing.

Zhong Gensheng naturally followed behind and was busy without going home, buying materials everywhere, and had to collect pigs, so busy going in and out that there were no people around.

He didn't have time to do the work in the field, but fortunately, these materials didn't need much care, and weeding wasn't a labor-intensive job, so He Axiu and Niu Xiaohua carried the hoes and took a few days to finish it. After all, it doesn't take much effort to only have three acres of land, and it doesn't take much effort to water it. Although there is little rain here, this seasoning requires relatively little water. Occasional rain is enough. What is needed for spicy seasoning is enough Therefore, He Axiu and Niu Xiaohua just watered the land once and then gave up. Compared with the land planted in the past, this is a very easy job.

In the past, not only was there a lot of land and a lot of work at home, but also catching bugs. The work was amazing. The most depressing thing was that more than half of the harvest was used to pay taxes and rent, and the rations left in my hand were only enough to eat. , if it wasn't for the local girl who made this, their family is still full and hungry. How can it be so good, where can they go to study and marry a wife...

Therefore, Niu Xiaohua and He Axiu had no complaints about doing these jobs.It's even nice to see these ingredients bloom.

Niu Xiaohua said happily: "...Mom, the flowers will bear fruit soon after they bloom."

"Yes..." He Axiu laughed after thinking about it, and said, "This year is another good year for my family."

After hearing this, Niu Xiaohua smiled and said: "...Mother, although there is no food for planting this, the harvest is good. The most important thing is that it doesn't waste water and is drought-tolerant. Even if the weather is a little hotter, they can survive. Alright, it's not like in previous years, when the rice lacks water, it will die..."

"That's true..." He Axiu laughed and said, "Most people in the village have to buy food this year, how dare they think about this before..."

When Niu Xiaohua thought about it, she laughed, although working hard in the fields, what was it compared to being at her mother's house? !
Tian osmanthus is the person who is most afraid of suffering, and always likes to tell her what to do. Although Niu Laogen loves her and won't let her go to the ground, but Tian osmanthus can't help her tossing around. Niu Xiaohua actually has the strength to do the work in the vegetable field. Now she is familiar with it and it doesn't take much trouble.

When the two came back, Niu Xiaohua went to the backyard to pick vegetables with He Axiu. While watering, she looked at the beautiful lotus in the river and said, "...Mother, what is this? This flower is so big. It's so beautiful. Ask Dabao, he said he doesn't know..."

"If you ask me, I don't know either. It was made by the local girl. The local girl only said it was a good thing..." He Axiu smiled and said: "She is so mysterious that she only knows when she talks about it, but it is true Told me that this is called lotus... also called lotus..."

"Lotus, lotus, it's really beautiful..." Niu Xiaohua exclaimed, "Tu Niu has so many ideas. Once the flowers in the pond bloom, they become different, and the fish have grown a lot. I guess You can catch and eat it in the Chinese New Year..."

"Yeah..." He Axiu was very happy when she mentioned her daughter, and was about to say something, but when she saw that Han Ji was idle and bored, she moved the table and drew by the fish pond, she frowned. , stopped talking, pulled Niu Xiaohua, and carried the watering bucket back to the front yard.
