The safety and comfort of traveling through farming

Chapter 154

In February, He Youzhi and He Youtian set off to participate in the county examination. He Youliang planned the house site and prepared to build a house. The backyard of the three young generals in the wasteland was filled with livestock and poultry... Everyone had their own things to do, even The twins are all working hard to learn to walk, but Fu Shi is the only one who grows grass in idleness. As for He Tao, she has always regarded growing grass in idleness as her life goal.

It is rare for Fu Shi to think seriously about major events in life.

For him 20 years ago, his only worry was why his friends in the village didn’t like him and bullied him. Fifteen years ago, when he was about ten years old, all he could think about was when he could return to his home. Ten years ago From the very beginning, his life was all about living. He had nothing to do with starting a family, procreating descendants, or growing a clan... until three years ago, in the middle of the night, Fu Quan came to him and said, "Shi Brother, I found a wife for you, and I will send it over tomorrow."

Since then, the focus of his life has been, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law... After having two daughters, the focus has become "daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law".

He has never thought about what kind of life he wants to live. Looking around now, the six-year-old Nian Zong "went to the town" for his studies. However, he is always idle every day...

He felt that he should also have his own career, start a family and start a career, and after he became a family, he should talk about his career!
Seeing that Fu Shi had been maintaining the image of a thinker all morning, He Tao couldn't help asking, "Shitou, what are you thinking about?"

Fu Shi replied deeply: "I suddenly felt that at my age, I shouldn't just be abandoned like this!"

After hearing this, He Tao thought to himself that he really is a man, he just has the ambition of career!"So what are you going to do?" she asked.

Fu Shi shook his head: "I don't know, I just think I should find something to do."

"..." He Tao felt that he was simply idle.I've never seen him so diligent before!Could it be that this child is a late bloomer - of course the benchmark is Daqi's age of starting a family, and he was only 25 before he gave birth to his ambition?

Fu Shi went on to say: "Actually, there are, but... I used to join the army because I felt that being at home was boring and I wanted to make a living. Now that I have retired, think about it, the army is actually pretty good. I like archery, Fighting, daughter-in-law, have I told you that when I participated in the training camp, and when I was in the pioneer camp, it was the same, whether it was riding, shooting or fighting, I was No. 1!"

"I said so." He Tao nodded.Last year, Fu Shi went to Biancheng to sell prescriptions, where he worked as a teacher for more than half a month. After he came back, he kept talking about this matter, and he also practiced a few children at home all day long.

"Why don't you open a martial arts gym and recruit students?" He Tao clapped his hands.

After Fu Shi thought about it seriously, he shook his head: "Forget about opening a martial arts school. I never thought of relying on it to make a living. Teaching Nianzu and the others is an interest. If it is really a serious matter, I guess I'm not too happy..."

It is true that after the hobby becomes a career, it will be more restrictive, and it will not be possible to enjoy the original fun.He Tao also helped him think: "Then why do you suddenly feel like looking for something to do?"

Fu Shi said with some embarrassment: "Didn't you talk to my uncle about the hot sauce a few days ago? My uncle said that even if the hot sauce business is over, he will find other ways to make money in the future. Don't laugh when I say it Me, daughter-in-law, you actually earn our family's money, speaking of it, you are the one who supports the family, and I..."

"That's wrong!" He Tao interrupted Fu Shi and said, "Although I came up with the idea, you were actually the one who did it. If it wasn't for you, no matter how good the recipe is, it wouldn't sell for much money. I don't know for sure. Just like Baifu Fangzi, I sold it for 1000 taels. I laughed! And the hot sauce is the same. At the beginning, the second uncle had been in business for a long time, and he was very happy to sell hot sauce for only five taels of silver. It was you who insisted. Well, that Boss Fan just raised the price..."

These words are not He Tao comforting Fu Shi, she really thinks so.

Fu Shi smiled and said nothing.

He Tao considers herself a little girl and is willing to accept her husband's protection and live under her husband's wings.Fu Shi is a typical big man who regards protecting his wife and children as his lifelong duty.The two of them can be said to complement each other.Moreover, He Tao has always paid great attention to maintaining Fu Shi's dignity, and is willing to discuss with him even the smallest matters.But unexpectedly, Fu Shi still felt that his position as the head of the family was not stable enough.

He Tao leaned over, leaned his head on Fu Shi's shoulder, hugged his arm, and said, "You can do whatever you want! I support you, there is only one thing, I hope you can always keep it in your heart. And Dongzhi and Dongye are relying on you, you must not put yourself in danger..."

"Daughter-in-law..." Fu Shi turned around and pinched He Tao's hand, and said firmly, "Don't worry, for you, I will never let anything happen to me."

From that day on, Fu Shi began to seriously consider what he should do for a living, and finally he positioned himself as a landlord.

The old ancestors said it well, nothing can be relied on, only the land is the most real.

He said to He Tao: "The Daoxiang Village we bought earns a few thousand taels a year. Even if it is inevitable that there will be bad times, after all, it will only happen once every few years, or even ten years. .I think about it. In the future, if I have nothing to do, I will go to several counties near us. I will buy all the suitable land for sale. Not only the land, but also the shops. As long as there are suitable land You can buy them all... Didn't you always say that money won't produce money when you keep it at home, although now our family's wealth is earned by you, but in the future, I will double our family's wealth , Twice..."

"Well, that's a good idea!" He Tao nodded—isn't this her usual goal?A man's self-esteem is the most ridiculous thing!
With He Tao's approval, Fu Shi started to get busy.

He first went to Willow Town to find Luo Baocheng, greeted him, and asked him to stay with him as long as he saw suitable land and shops, and then asked him for a list of officials who seemed reliable to him.

Fu Shi took the list and went to Jinhuai Town today, Gaoshan Town tomorrow, and Sancha Town the day after tomorrow... As soon as the family was free, he rode around with a bank note in his pocket.

Fu Quan also began to look for new money-making projects.

He is more adventurous than Fu Shi. Fu Shi only seeks stability in everything, but Fu Quan believes that high risks bring high returns.He officially handed over the local product shop in the town to his eldest son Fu Lei, and then took his second son Fu Chao and his third son Fu Tian to the provincial capital.

Fu Quan first bought a small yard on West Street, where merchants live in the provincial capital, and bought another room for servants to take care of their daily life, while he took his two sons to the teahouse to drink tea and listen to books every day. , I became acquainted with the regular customers there.

By the time the last batch of chili sauce came out, Fu Quan had already become brothers and sisters with the merchants in that area. As for the new project, he had a solid foundation in his mind, and he just waited for the principal to start after selling the chili sauce recipe.

At the end of March, the troops in the Great Wasteland split into two groups. Fu Shi, Fu Lei, Nianzu, and Li Yousi escorted the chili sauce to the provincial capital, while He Youliang went to Qingshanren's village to invite Old Man Jin down the mountain.

Fu Quan, Fu Shi and Boss Fan, the merchant, sat around a short-legged table in the teahouse, all three of them looked serious.

Boss Fan said: "You two mean that you want to sell this supply to me? Just because of the supply, you want to charge me 10 taels of silver? Are you two too greedy?"

Fu Quan said with a smile: "Boss Fan's words are over. This business is about your love and my wish. If you think it's worth it, you can buy it. If you think it's just a source of goods, it's not worth paying so much for it." In terms of silver, we can't be righteous in buying and selling!"

Fu Shi added with a serious face: "That's right, then we'll find someone else to sell it!"

Boss Fan's chubby face was almost twisted into a twist.

He bought hot sauce for ten taels of silver a can, but when he returned to the capital, he sold it for 50 taels a can, and the supply was in short supply.Who made seventy percent of the wealth and wealth in the world be in the capital?There is no shortage of rich people in the capital, and what is even more indispensable is noble people who love to compare themselves!

Does your family eat the spicy sauce from Pinghu?Hey, can that thing be imported?Don't spoil our ears by saying it out, who doesn't prepare a few jars of onyx now!You haven't eaten it, have you?If you haven't eaten it, it's justified, after all, not everyone can get good things!

Onyx quickly captured the luxury goods market represented by the rich and powerful in Shangjing City, earning more money from a trip to the hot sauce than he made from running spices three times a year!No way, although the selling price of spices is high, the purchase price is also expensive. Moreover, he is not the only one who is in the spice business, and sometimes the goods may not be sold after the goods are returned!Compared with spices, chili sauce is particularly pleasing to him, and the purchase price is cheap, which is the only one...

Boss Fan slapped the table: "Success, I've done this business!"

Fu Quan smiled happily: "Boss Fan, you are not losing money, and I am not afraid to tell you the truth. We buy this hot sauce for two taels of silver per can, and you can save eight taels of money with a can in the future!"

Boss Fan smiled wryly: "One can save eight taels. I have to sell [-] cans to earn back the intermediary fee. How can it compare to the two of you making a lot of money at once!"

Fu Quan and Fu Shi: "Hehehe..."

Now that the matter has been negotiated, after receiving the banknote, Fu Quan and Fu Shi led Boss Fan all the way to the Great Wasteland to meet with Old Man Jin.

"Two taels of silver for a pot?!" Old man Jin almost rolled his eyes out: "Girl, aren't you coaxing your uncle? Two taels of silver?! Is it really two taels of silver? Didn't Brother Fu say that he only sells for eighty coins? One jar? How can it be sold for two taels of silver?"

He Tao smiled a little forcedly, cleared his throat, and began to fool around with a serious face: "It's like this, at the beginning, my second uncle really didn't know what price the hot sauce could sell for... It's because we got so much money I was taken aback. Sake made people's faces red, and money and silk touched people's hearts. We were dazzled by silver at first, but after we calmed down, we felt guilty. I'm sorry, after all, you made this thing. Instead, we are the ones who make the most of the money..."

The old man Jin was open-minded, and said with a smile: "No wonder, no blame, this thing has been passed down from our ancestors, and we have eaten it for hundreds of years, and have never exchanged it for silver. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have This way."

"It's fine if you don't blame me!" He Tao breathed a sigh of relief: "I guess, the second uncle and the others will come back tomorrow, you will stay here for one night, and I will treat you well..."

"Okay, I'll also taste the good things on your dam..."

In the big backyard, Qing Shu, who accompanied Old Man Jin down the mountain, was chatting with He Youliang.

Qingshu asked: "Hey, is there a family named Rong in your village? There are two daughters, one named Rong Lan and one named Rong Ping?"

"Even you all know?!" He Youliang was taken aback. He didn't expect that the news of the evil spirits would reach the ears of the reclusive Qingshan people.

"Speaking of which, the people in our village were too scared to go out at that time! No one thought that Rong Lan had been away for four years, and the ghosts would come back to do evil, and people died one after another in the village. Fortunately, we invited Gaotang Temple The eminent monk came to do it, otherwise, maybe, our Rongshu Village has become a ghost village..."

Qingshu looked at He Youliang, who was eloquent, with a thoughtful face, and asked tentatively: "I also heard it from someone, but that person didn't explain it clearly, please tell me carefully! Who are they?"

"The first one is our great uncle, and the second one is Rong Ping..."

"Miss Ronglan is dead?"

"That's right, it's the same at the place where Rong Lan drowned, the drowned..."
