six-fingered peasant girl

Chapter 188

On February [-]nd, when the dragon raised its head, the spring rain was as expensive as oil, and the drizzle turned into rain and mist, mixed with the cold wind, hitting people's bodies together, making people even colder to the bone.

"It's too cold today, can't you go again in two days?" Chen frowned and walked in from the outside, couldn't help breathing hot air on her hands.

"Put on your gloves too, don't miss out." Su Liu instructed the new maid, Xueluo, to pack her bags, and stepped forward to take Chen's hand.

"The construction over there has already been completed. I have been the shopkeeper in the past. Now that the construction is completed, I naturally have to check it out. Otherwise, how can I feel at ease?" Su Liu said with a smile.

Cao Kui sent someone to send a message that the donkey-hide gelatin workshop had been completed, and asked Su Liu to check it out, so Su Liu was preparing to go there when there was time.

Now that the shop's business has stabilized, the shopkeeper has been invited to take care of it. Su Xiao can usually take care of it. She only checks the accounts every half a month, and basically doesn't care about the shop.

As for the pepper, because the first batch was not much, it can only be supplied to the Song family's restaurant for the time being. The rest is to keep the seeds and sell a lot of seeds to those who came to hear the news.

Song Fei said that she is generous, that the so-called rarity is the most precious, but she sold all the seeds for people to plant.

Su Liu laughed, she never planned to cover this chili pepper and start her own business, after all, money is endless, if she doesn't sell it this time, others will find ways to get it, so it's better to sell a lot of seeds generously, Let more people be able to plant.After the beginning of spring, when this batch of peppers matures, this crop will be widely known.

Besides, her goal is not only to plant two chili trees, she also wants to make chili sauce, which is all money. If she can open a workshop in the future and grow it by herself, the raw materials are far from enough.

"I really don't understand you two sisters. You say you're in business, but that's fine. That little girl is making so many fans again. I think she's going crazy." Chen said angrily.

Su Liu pulled her to sit down, and said with a smile: "She is interested in this, let her make trouble, maybe she will really make a good fan."

Su Xiao showed great interest in rouge and gouache, so besides taking care of the shop at home, she also came to mess with her bottles and cans of powder.

Su Liu felt that a person must be interested, so she expressed her absolute support for Su Xiao.

After talking with Mrs. Chen for a while, and explaining a lot of things, Su Liu took the two maids and set off to the Zhuangzi where Cao Kui was.

This time, Ning Guang didn't go with her because of the wind and cold. It was Xiao Wu who drove the car for her and acted as a bodyguard.

Well, let an ex-soldier drive the car for her, Su Liu expressed that she was under a lot of pressure, but fortunately Xiao Wu is not as paranoid as Xiao Si, he is lively, clever, talkative, and doesn't feel lonely on the road.

Because they didn't know the way the first time they went back, Su Liu and his party first took the road to Changping County, had lunch at Cao Mingzhu's house, and then the Cao family took them to Zhuangzi.

The Zhuangzi of Cao Kui’s family is about [-] kilometers away from the suburbs of Changping County, covering an area of ​​about [-] mu, and there are about [-] households in the village. When Su Liu and the others arrived, it was already dusk, and there was little smoke from the roof of the house, and children in cotton padded jackets were in the fields. They ran happily, and some even chased after their carriage, laughing and joking.

"The happiest time is when I was a child." Su Liu raised the curtain and said after taking a look.

"The big girl is so old-fashioned, and you are only fifteen." A girl in a pink bijia with a double bun and neat bangs joked.

"That's right, other people don't know, they thought the girl was already in her thirties." Another girl in pink and blue vigilante echoed with a smile.

These are the two girls that Su Liutuo and Song Fei bought. They are both fourteen or fifteen years old, about the same size as her. The one wearing the pink bijia is Shuang Ning, while the one wearing pink and blue bijia is Shuangluo.

Because they knew the direction of the future and wanted to cultivate capable confidants, the two girls could read and write, Shuang Ning was lively and clever, Xueluo was alert and calm, and their personalities complemented each other perfectly, and Song Fei also put a lot of thought into it.

Su Liu glanced at the two of them, and said with a smile, "It's not that I'm old-fashioned, but that I think too much about being an adult."

"Young lady is talking frustratingly again. People have to grow up." Xueluo shook her head and smiled, "Maybe children are still envious of adults."

Su Liu smiled and said nothing, it should be like this, when I was a child, I looked forward to growing up and being able to do many things, but when I was an adult, I envied that when I was a child, I was carefree.

"Miss Liu'er, we're here." Xiao Wu's voice came from the shaft of the car.

The carriage stopped, Xueluo jumped out first, and then helped Su Liu down.

There were several people standing in front of Zhuangzi's gate. When they saw Su Liu, they stepped forward and saluted: "Miss Su, the younger one is Zhuangtou Wang Sanqian of this Zhuangzi. You can call me Wangzhuangtou."

Su Liu saluted slightly, and said with a smile, "Please trouble Wang Zhuangtou."

Seeing her decent manner, Wang Zhuangtou secretly praised her, and seeing that she was a business partner with his boss at such a young age, he couldn't help being speechless, darling, this is too young.

"Director Song and Director Wei are already waiting for the girl, please." Wang Zhuangtou smiled and welcomed her in.

The two directors he mentioned are Cao Kui and Song Fei's people, and they were also selected in various ways to be in charge of the donkey-hide gelatin workshop.

Wang Zhuangtou led Su Liu into the main house, while introducing the situation of the Zhuangzi, Su Liu asked a few questions from time to time, which made him put away his contempt, because what Su Liu asked was all asked. On point.

If the farmer is a local or a foreigner, what kind of people are they, are there people in this farmer who are stealing, raping, cheating and renting, and have there been any sneaky, treacherous, and evil things?

But he didn't know that Su Liu's question was just for the sake of the workshop. After all, donkey-hide gelatin is a precious commodity. If someone takes advantage of the loophole to steal or add something to their workshop, it will be over. These are all imported. What about food?

Supervisor Song's real name is Song Jilin, and he works under Song Fei. He is only forty years old and has a gentle temperament, but the occasional flash of light in his eyes makes people dare not underestimate him.

Supervisor Wei is from Cao Kui, his real name is Wei Zhenxiang, he is older than Song Jilin, and he speaks less, but he is extremely sophisticated in his dealings.

Obviously, both of them were carefully selected by Song Fei and the others. As for Su Liu, a little girl who was not as young as she was, after a few conversations, the two of them went from contempt at the beginning to surprise later, and sighed in their hearts that the descendants of the country are born in large numbers. The key is Su Liu is too sophisticated when it comes to business, and there are some loopholes that they never thought of.

As night fell, Su Liu talked with the two of her experiences after dinner, and then decided to go to check the workshop tomorrow, and she didn't mention it since she stopped, but she didn't know that someone in her house was restless.

There was no minor illness in ten years, and one illness was not serious. Ning Guang's wind and cold this time were severe and severe. Long before Su Liu set off, his voice was only a little hoarse, but at night, he had a fever .

Because of the cold, Ning Guang lived in the front yard of the new house. With servants around, the environment is better and he can rest well.

Ning Guang is ill, but Su Liu has to take care of some business. Duan Zhong expresses his dissatisfaction. First of all, he thinks that it is wrong for Su Liu to show his face, and it is even more wrong to persist in Ning Guang’s illness.

But Ning Guang didn't say anything, he went on his own to talk about Su Liu, but complained secretly, and Zhong Cainiang listened to it at this moment, and took the opportunity to put some eye drops on Su Liu, Duan Zhong became even more dissatisfied with Su Liu.

"Uncle Zhong, you are getting old, go and rest, I will fry this medicine myself, and then I will serve Brother Ning to eat it." Zhong Cainiang came to the kitchen and said to Duan Zhong.

The weather is cold, and Duan Zhong is also old. He knows that Zhong Cainiang is a sister of Ning Guang's subordinate, and he knows that that subordinate died for Ning Guang. Su Liu is much better.

"Then I will trouble Miss Cai Niang." Duan Zhong said with a smile.

"No trouble, it's my blessing to serve Brother Ning." Zhong Cainiang blushed and smiled shyly.

"Our eldest young master should be served by a caring person like you, unlike... hum!" Duan Zhong snorted softly.

Zhong Cainiang was secretly happy, but she pretended to be terrified and said: "Uncle Zhong, don't say that, Miss Su is just busy with business, she is very good to Brother Ning."

"Okay? What does a girl's family look like in public? Our young master is a dignified second-rank general. How can the wife he married be in public and do such a cheap thing? What does this sound like?" Duan Zhong was very disapproving.

He stayed these days and saw that Ning Guang had no intention of going back to Beijing at all, and saw that he obeyed Su Liuyan everywhere, and Su Liu was either managing a shop or selling some seeds with some merchants, and he didn't even wear a suit when he saw the foreign man. Wearing a curtain, she is simply a vulgar country girl. How can such a person be worthy of their young master?

Duan Zhong only thought that Ning Guang was bewildered by Su Liu, otherwise he wouldn't be so hotheaded to get engaged to a village girl, and the village girl would be fine, but she would pretend to be a dignified woman to learn how a man does business, it's simply presumptuous.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are the last ones. Su Liu is a businessman. If people know that his family's general married such a vulgar village girl and businesswoman in the future, he would be ashamed.

Zhong Cainiang saw that Duan Zhong's eyes became more and more displeased, so she said again: "Miss Su is also afraid of being poor, yes, she is not to blame for such a family background." After saying this, she yelled again, which seemed to be a slip of the tongue, He hurriedly said: "Look at me, I'm just too busy talking, this medicine is about to be found out."

As he said that, he picked up the palm-leaf fan and fanned the stove, which really fanned the flames.

Duan Zhong stood there, pursed his lips, and wrinkled his brows tightly. If Zhong Cainiang didn't say anything, he really forgot about this incident.

He didn't really come here for fun these days, just to hang around here, play tricks there, and what Zhong Cainiang said, he has figured out Su Liu's background.

A girl born with six fingers, who dared to persuade her parents to reconcile, was unfilial to her relatives, and went into business again, such a girl was absolutely unmarried. The young master must make a marriage of the right family!

Thinking of this, Duan Zhong hurried back to his room to write a letter, naturally he didn't see Zhong Cainiang's calculating eyes behind him.
