Chapter 127 Mr. Lu Arrives (1)
Qing Shu was stunned, she really hadn't thought about this situation.She didn't intend to eat all the beans in Kangxi Town from the beginning, she could get [-]% or [-]% of them, and if there were more, the car and horse dealers would be dissatisfied.Therefore, she originally thought that by releasing the news three days in advance, it would be done in one day.In this case, should we continue to accept or not?
"Well, I see. You go and ask Manager Wu what he means, and see what he thinks, and tell me when you come back." Qing Shu asked Wu Xiaoshan to go out to ask, thinking about it in her heart.How about another day?If it is delayed for a day but not too many beans can be harvested, it is not cost-effective, but the autumn harvest will be delayed.

The sorghum has to be turned in the sun for two days before it can be put into the warehouse, and the sorghum stalks have to be pulled back. The sorghum stubble in the field has to be manually dug, and then the corn is harvested, the corn sticks are broken and pulled back to the farm, the corn straw is cut, the corn straw is tied, and the straw is pulled. Come back... the cabbage can also be harvested a little bit, and pulled to the town or Jinyang City to sell.The yamen sent people to collect taxes and grain, and it took half a day to work.

Qing Shu found out with a dark face that there were so many things to do, and these things could not be done with just a few words or fingers, anyway, none of them were capable of being done by her and Qing Yang, all had to be done by the strong men.

At this time, Wu Xiaoshan came in and replied, saying that Manager Wu thought it would be better to collect another day, because among the people who sold out the beans, there were about twenty men squatting on the sidelines waiting for news.They have relatives in any village, and when they hear the news, they will have to come from half the village.He also said that there are many wait-and-see, do not believe that there is a good thing to collect beans for two pennies per catty.These people who waited and watched did not come today, but they will definitely come tomorrow.

Wu Tongtou will support collecting one more day, not only will he be able to collect a lot of beans tomorrow, but also he believes that the young lady will not be busy collecting beans in vain, and will definitely earn a lot of money.Recently, they have been drinking soybean soup and eating fried soybean sprouts, and everyone loves it very much.Take out and sell everyone's favorite food, and it will definitely be very popular in the season when vegetables are scarce.

Now that Wu Tongtou said so, Qing Shu also nodded, agreeing to accept another day, and let Wu Tongtou watch over the arrangement.

Before dark, Qingshu and Qingyang had to rush back to the town, but there were still people sending beans.Qingshu handed over the accounting and payment to Wu Tongtou, left the box with money for Wu Tongtou, took away the empty box, and asked Qingyang to sit in the carriage and drive back home. .This time, Zhang Da and Wei Tiehammer escorted them back to the town.

When the sun was setting, Qing Shu and the others arrived in front of the mansion.Gu Qiang, who was waiting at the gate of the mansion, was relieved at this moment.Li Dalang directly drove the carriage into the mansion, and Gu Yuanhe closed the gate of the mansion.

After Qingshu and Qingyang had dinner, Qingshu asked Qingyang to go back to the room, wash up, lie down and rest.This day, Qingyang was tired, counting copper coins to pay Douzi's bill, it's no wonder he wasn't tired after sitting for a whole day.In fact, his fingers hurt too, but he was willing to do it himself, so Qing Shu called him several times, but he insisted not to let others pay the bill.

Next, it was time for Gu Qiang to report.The case at the yamen was closed, and Er Gouzi admitted that he took a dime from the head of Dagujia Village and went to the thatched cottage where Gu Yuanhe lived at night.Er Gouzi said that he didn't want to kill people, and he didn't dare to kill people. He just wanted to scare Gu Yuanhe, scare people away, and then burn the thatched cottage to fool the village chief.

In the end, the village head was beaten 12 times, and he was sent to the frontier for [-] years.Er Gouzi also hit twenty boards, and was given the same sentence as Li Zheng and Li Er, six years in prison.As for Li Da, he played twenty boards and let him go.And Ning Si, who was released, but lost his job.

Gu Qiang also said that as soon as Ning Si was released, his mother took him to the front of the ancient mansion, and the family of five kowtowed in front of the ancient mansion before returning.

The fact that Gu Yuanhe was injured has been revealed so far.

Thinking of sauerkraut, Qing Shu told Gu Qiang to pay more attention to the shops selling large vats in the near future, and to find out which ones have good vats and reasonable prices.

Gu Qiang agreed, and reminded: "Miss, the purple fruit was put well for you. In the afternoon, the old slave bought four more jars, washed them and put them away. I wonder if there is enough for Miss?"

"Ah, I almost forgot about the purple fruit. Four jars are enough, so I don't need to buy any more. It seems that I won't be able to go to Zhuangzi tomorrow. The beans will be collected for another day tomorrow, so you take someone to watch them."

"Yes. Miss, you and the young master haven't practiced for half an hour at night." Gu Qiang reminded dutifully.

Qingshu thought for a while, "Xiaoyang is tired today, let him rest! I practice by myself, you don't have to stare at me, go to bed early." These days, she got used to practicing before going to bed, although she was tired My back hurts, it's very hard work, but I sleep extraordinarily soundly, and my physical strength is gradually increasing unconsciously, which is a good thing.

In the blink of an eye, on the second day, Qingyang took a box of copper plates and sat in the carriage, escorted by Gu Qiang, Zhang Da and Wei Tiehui, and set off to Zhuangzi.

And Qingshu, took Xiaoyu and Xiaojuan to tinker with Ziguozi and the four jars.The last time the Kang family brothers sent purple fruits, Qing Shu chose the best one and tried to make a jar of fruit wine, and shared the rest to eat.This time, it was the last batch of purple fruits this year.

Because Qingshu ordered the picking last time, Xiaojuan and Xiaoyu already had experience, holding scissors in their hands, they picked whole and big purple fruits, and carefully cut them off one by one.For the cut purple fruit, be careful when washing, the skin of the purple fruit should not be damaged in any way.

After the purple fruit is washed, it is necessary to control the water content, put it in a dry wooden basin without any water, and crush it one by one with clean and dry hands.Then fill the altar, add sugar, and seal.

Made in the last altar, Qingshu put it under the window root in the courtyard.For the current four altars, Qingshu thought for a while, put two altars in a place where the sun can shine, one altar in a place where the sun can't shine, and the last altar is placed on the window root in the courtyard.

Qing Shu marked the five altars respectively.She had seen how to make homemade wine online, but had never made it herself.She wasn't sure, because she wasn't sure if she had memorized the entire production recipe.Now she is just curious and wants to try it.If it works, she will drink with her brother, if it doesn't work, there is no loss.The Kang family brothers gave them the purple fruit for a penny and a catty before, but this time, they didn't even ask for a penny.The brothers said that it was thanks to the ancient mansion for taking them to do long-term work in Zhuangzi.

The days passed unknowingly while being busy, and half a month passed in a blink of an eye.

Ten mu of sorghum fields have been dug out, turned over, fertilized, and planted with wheat.This ten mu of land is Qingshu's first experimental field, and she is trying to grow winter wheat.The corn sticks have been broken and pulled back to the yard, and the corn stalks were cut and bundled, and they were just pulled back.

The cabbage pulled two carts to Jinyang City to sell, and people picked and picked for two catties and three coins. In the end, the cabbage weighing more than 6000 catties was only sold for eight taels of silver.Qing Shu roughly calculated the bill, and it would take four days to go back and forth, the cost of the two ox carts, the board and lodging expenses of the driver and the four people who followed the cart, and the two carts of vegetables at the gate of the city when entering the city. The ten copper coins for her, and the two taels of money for the buyer introduced by a middleman. Calculated carefully, it would be good if there were eight taels of silver for the vegetable seller and five taels of money. The result of treating yourself badly.
