Chapter 108 Farmhouse
He Changzai worked from the afternoon until noon the next day, and finally built a farmhouse and renovated it.
The whole house, with blue bricks and tiles, stands like a Jiangnan water town.
He lay in the house and slept for a while, and his aunt Cao Lili came over, and she said that the snow feather chicken and kunyu in Yipinju were all sold out, and let him get some more.
He Changzai was a little suspicious of how things in my aunt's store were sold so quickly, but he didn't ask too much, took her up the mountain to catch 100 snow feather chickens, went down to the river to catch 50 kunyu, helped her load them into the car, and said:
"Xueling chicken, you can sell it at the original price, but the price of the kunyu has to go up, add an extra thousand yuan!"
Cao Lili's small mouth was round and her face was surprised, and she said:
"The price of 1314 Supreme Kunyu is already expensive enough, if you increase the price again, I'm afraid this dish won't sell!"
He Chang lit a cigarette and said:
"I bought this fish for 10,000, and if the price does not rise, it must be sold and lost, and the price increase can only be said to be a little less, but when the carp in the river breed, I will not lose so much...... By the way, you can help me tell Shen Quan, and let him raise the price!"
When Cao Lili heard He Chang saying that this kunyu was bought for 10,000, she was immediately shocked.
After being stunned for a while, he calmed down, as if he suddenly remembered something, opened the car door, took out a dog from it, and handed it to He Changzaidao:
"This tabby is a famous hunting dog, I specially bought it from the market and gave it to you!"
"Thank you, Auntie, there have been a lot of tourists coming over recently, I'm really a little worried about the medicinal herbs and prickly pears planted on the mountain, I'm afraid of being ruined, now it's okay, just throw this dog on the mountain, let it help look at it!"
He Changzai took the dog, carried its head, put it on the ground, watched Cao Lili drive away, took out his mobile phone and called the village chief Wang Fugui.
"Hey, is it Uncle Fugui?"
"Chang is here, what's the matter, I heard that your kid has been developed recently, and I don't invite my uncle to come out and drink two cups!"
"Definitely, when I have time, I will definitely invite Uncle Fugui to have a small gathering and get drunk...... Haven't a lot of people come to the river lately to catch the kun I raised, and to see the wooden kite I made on the mountain!"
"I just built a farmhouse at the foot of Nanshan, ready to open a farmhouse, I want to find some rural women to come over to stir-fry vegetables, the salary is 5,000 a month, the condition must be 35 years old, the appearance is outstanding, can you publicize it in the loudspeaker of the village committee?"
"No problem, I'll give you two shouts!"
"Uncle Fugui, thank you!"
After He Chang hung up the phone, he lit a cigarette, squatted on the ground and teased the dog brought by his aunt, and quietly waited for the village woman to come over.
......
About an hour later, the eldest girl and little daughter-in-law in the village rushed over in twos and threes, and some of them painted makeup, which was a bit charming.
One by one, they walked up to He Chang in front of him and opened their mouths.
"Always here, look at how your aunt is, why don't you just stir-fry a few dishes, I have a lot of specialty dishes!"
"Chang is here, the eldest sister was a class flower when she was young, and she chased me a lot, and now although she is older, her appearance is still here, isn't it?"
"Always there, you see my sister-in-law's skin is white, I often maintain it!"
......
He Changzai didn't listen to these words at all, pulled away from the crowd, looked back, a woman with blue circles under her eyes, wounds on her body, a weak expression, and a hint of cowardice, her face was calm, her eyes were not shocked, and she asked:
"Why are you here!"
In an instant, all the women in the village who came over focused their eyes on Chen Yanjiao, who was standing at the back of the crowd.
She looked very embarrassed and wanted to turn away, but she subconsciously stopped, plucked up her courage, and said:
"Chang Zai, the pig raised by Da Zhuang, I don't know what disease he had, and he died overnight, and my family is considered to have fallen into blood mold...... He can't face life now, as if he has changed as a person, and since then he has been in a slump, and he likes to be friends with fox friends and dogs when he has nothing to do, go to drink a little wine, and beat me when he comes home......"
He Changzai said indifferently: "You said this, it's all your private matter, what does it have to do with me!"
Hearing this, Chen Yanjiao suddenly felt a chill in her heart, but she still didn't want to give up, and continued:
"Always, as the saying goes, a husband and wife are a hundred days, please look at the past feelings, let me stay in the farmhouse to work, that nightmare-like home, I don't want to go back!"
Some people around saw that Chen Yanjiao was pitiful and opened their mouths to help her speak.
"Always, in this life, when everyone does something wrong, please give Yanjiao a chance!"
"Yes, I also heard about this, after Li Dazhuang's pigs all died of illness, his whole temperament changed greatly, every time he came home drunk, he would tie Yanjiao's hands with a belt, it was a violent beating!"
"Chang Zai, although you may not be able to go back to the past in terms of feelings, but you are so rich now, even if you are pitiful Yanjiao, you have to help her!"
He Chang looked at the woman in front of him who he had once loved, and for a while, he had mixed feelings, and his heart was very uncomfortable, and he was a little difficult to choose, and fell into silence.
After a while, there was no mention of the matter, and the conversation changed:
"Now open the first farmhouse first, so I'm going to choose the best among you people, of course you can't choose, don't be discouraged, there are nine farmhouses, there will be opportunities in the future!"
A group of rural women, hearing that He Chang was about to choose someone, subconsciously stood up straight one by one, showing their best state.
He Chang glanced at the crowd and selected some women with good figures, thoughtful appearances, and beautiful eyebrows, a total of six people.
He waved his hand at the rest of the people and said, "Thank you for coming over this time, go back!"
The people who were not picked out looked at the people who were picked out, cast envious eyes, and left with a disappointed expression.
Although there must be something hateful about poor people, He Changzai thought that Chen Yanjiao lived in dire straits every day, endured Li Dazhuang's beatings, hesitated, his heart softened a little, and he shouted.
"Chen Yanjiao, you wait, come to the farmhouse to work...... But don't think too much, in my eyes, you're just like everyone else, if you don't do well, I'll still quit you!"
Chen Yanjiao stopped her steps, looked back and smiled, brilliant as spring flowers blooming, and said to He Chang sincerely:
"Thank you!"
He Chang asked the group to stand in a row, with a straight face, and said:
"The seven of you go to work at seven o'clock every day...... Get off work at eight o'clock in the evening, so be it today, tomorrow I will go to the county seat to buy some ingredients and teach you how to cook!"
With that, he grabbed the tabby dog on the ground and walked up the mountain, preparing to put it on the mountain to see the medicinal herbs and prickly pear!
Chen Yanjiao pursed her lips, looked at He Changzai's departing back, and said, "Chang Zai, I have nowhere to go tonight!"
"Let's go to the farmhouse and sleep, there is a wooden bed I made in it!"
He Changzai turned his head, threw the key to the door of the first farmhouse to Chen Yanjiao, and turned around and went up the mountain with the tabby dog.
