Xu Hao's amount of alcohol is not good, not at all the enemy of these peasant men, but he is very happy today, so he did not drink less, it didn't take long for him to feel dizzy, his tongue was numb, and the people in front of him had double vision, although his brain was still very clear, but his body wanted to sleep uncontrollably, the burning knife in the north was very strong, and some southerners would pour it when they came to drink a glass, but this burning knife was the best means for northerners to resist the severe winter cold.

When Xu Hao slowly opened his eyes, he was already lying on the clay kang in his house, and there was a pair of big eyes in front of him looking at him without blinking, Xu Hao opened his eyes and saw Liu Zhixuan looking at him with her head on her hand.

"What? do I have flowers on my face?" Xu Hao grinned, he felt his head dizzy, and he was very thirsty.

Liu Zhixuan was obviously startled by his sudden awakening, but then she reflected it, and she said: "The eldest sister of the Li family said that you will definitely find water to drink when you wake up, so I am waiting for you to wake up, I have already prepared a cup of good decanting soup for you, you can taste it." Liu Zhixuan handed over a glass of water and said.

"Okay, then I'll try your decanting soup, I know it's delicious before I drink it. Xu Hao took the cup and drank it, adding rock sugar to the water, adding tea leaves, and putting a few wolfberries and red dates, which were very delicious, and this cup of water made Xu Hao feel a lot more comfortable.

"How's it going? Isn't it delicious? I've tasted three cups for you to choose the best ratio, it's absolutely fine, it's definitely delicious." Liu Zhixuan sat on a small stool, looked at Xu Hao with her head on her lean, and said with a smile.

"Well, it's really delicious, I've never drunk such a delicious tea, but where did these things come from?

"Oh, you don't have to worry about this, this is a gift from those guests, it's all some pastries and tea or something, I chose some for you to make water to drink. ”

"I see, the one or two silver I gave you is our food expenses for this month, you go to buy what you like to eat every day and make it for me to eat, I have to hit a lot of iron every day this month, and when these lists in my hand are finished, our family will no longer have to be like this. Xu Hao turned over and said.

"Don't worry, I've learned a lot from the eldest sister of the Li family, and there will definitely be no more black bomb like last time. Liu Zhixuan said.

"Well, then you prepare dinner at home first, and I'll go to the grocery store and order some iron, and then I'll go and beat some small things with some of the iron I have. Xu Hao said as he walked out of the house.

The weather outside is very cold, and the weather in the north will be very cold in September, Xu Hao tightened his clothes and walked towards the grocery store, not long after he went out, Liu Zhixuan took some cloth and cotton and slipped to Carpenter Li's house.

Xu Hao ordered three taels of silver iron from the grocery store, the price was about the same as the price of their original iron purchase, and even a little cheaper, three taels of silver was enough to buy a lot of iron, and it would be shipped to his home tomorrow.

It didn't take long for him to strike iron, and Xu Hao felt that he had some hands, but when the forging furnace rumbled and burned, when he picked up the familiar forging hammer in his hand, the familiar feeling seemed to come back.

The first thing Xu Hao hit was a shovel, a piece of pig iron was thrown into the forging furnace, and then taken out and beaten when it burned red, so repeatedly, it didn't take long for a shovel-shaped thing to take shape, as the saying goes, there are three hardships in the world, holding the boat, striking iron, grinding tofu, but Xu Hao didn't feel anything, he didn't strike iron purely for eating, but really had a certain interest.

It didn't take long for the head of a shovel to be made, Xu Hao was very satisfied, this level was already about the same as his father, but it was not as fast as Xu's father, but this is a matter of time, and he will become proficient slowly.

Xu Hao played iron for a whole afternoon, made a total of three shovels, two shovels, and a hoe, and when these people came to pick up things, they would pay the principal together, those are pure profits, and there are many people in the village who are in a wait-and-see state, and there will definitely be a lot of orders after seeing his level of iron, so Xu Hao is very careful when he hits these things, no matter what materials are used, there is no sloppiness at all.

Xu Hao didn't stop until very late, he was forced back by Liu Zhixuan to eat, dinner was Liu Zhixuan's steamed bread, eggs and porridge, he also asked for some pickles from Li Carpenter's house, after her hard work, her cooking skills have made great progress, at least she can eat, not only Xu Hao is working hard, Liu Zhixuan is also working hard, Xu Hao drank three bowls of porridge, ate five steamed buns and an egg, Liu Zhixuan's happy eyes narrowed, she saw that Xu Hao liked to eat what she made so much.

After the meal, Liu Zhixuan mysteriously took out a package, Xu Hao's eyes also showed curiosity, only to see Liu Zhixuan take out a padded jacket and say: "This is for you, try it if it's suitable!"

"Hmm, for me, didn't I ask you to make yourself a few clothes, why did you make them for me?" Xu Hao asked.

"Hehe, you're so lucky to strike iron every day, I'm just cooking at home or something, so I need new clothes, so let's make you a piece to wear, so that you won't be cold when you go out." Liu Zhixuan smiled and said with the padded jacket on Xu Hao's body.

"Hmm!" Liu Zhixuan suddenly felt her body tighten, and Xu Hao hugged her fiercely, "Oh, you hurry up and try whether it is suitable or not, if it is not suitable, I will let the eldest sister of the Li family teach me how to change." ”

"Suitable, suitable, the clothes you make must be suitable, you use the money I gave you to buy some more cloth and cotton tomorrow, this time I have to make your own clothes, tomorrow the iron I ordered will also come back, and there are a few more will come to pick up things, they will give me the rest of the money together, we can still get a silver or two, and when the rest of the things are finished, we can save money to buy some livestock and the like, and then our family's life will be better." Xu Hao hugged Liu Zhixuan and said.

"Ah, really, can I spend all the rest of the money at once?" Liu Zhixuan said excitedly.

"Well, yes, you can buy whatever you like!"

"That's great, I'm going to buy meat, cloth, cotton, candy, beautiful decorations, and I'll leave the decoration of our house to me." Liu Zhixuan patted her chest and said.

Looking at her happy appearance, Xu Hao was also very happy, although he was very tired, but life was very sweet, he gently kissed Liu Zhixuan's face and went to wash his feet and sleep.

Early the next morning, the shopkeeper of the grocery store brought the iron of the three major carriages, all piled up together at the back of the stable, and some villagers came to pick up things, they carefully observed the guys Xu Hao typed, and the result was that they were very satisfied, if this quality of things were bought elsewhere, it would definitely be a lot more expensive, and Xu Hao only needed such a small amount of money here.

In the afternoon, many people rushed to ask Xu Hao to give them iron, these people Xu Hao gave eighty-five discounts, and this time the list alone deposited Xu Hao received almost five taels of silver, and if these lists were all finished, Xu Hao would have to play non-stop every day for three months, Xu Hao also told them that the list was a little too much, and they couldn't all be punched out in a short time, and the villagers also readily agreed.

The days passed, Xu Hao's most of the time every day was soaked in his iron shop, Liu Zhixuan came to deliver him food at noon every day, and Xu Hao's entire income was given to Liu Zhixuan, time was quiet, three months passed, Xu Hao came out of the stable and stretched his waist, and finally finished all the things on the list today, Xu Hao felt extraordinarily comfortable, he used up the iron of the three major carts at the beginning, and he bought five taels of silver iron with the owner of the grocery store, and he also hung a sign at the door, who has no scrap iron can be sent to the country, a pound and a penny。

In this way, the children in the village look for scrap iron in the village every day to send it to Xu Hao, and these scrap iron can be made into farm tools and the like after a little training, so that the cost of this iron is much lower.

And Carpenter Li also wanted Xu Hao to give him something, Xu Hao didn't say anything after knowing what he was going to fight, it took a week, all kinds of farm tools were sent to Carpenter Li's house, and Carpenter Li had to give Xu Hao money, but Xu Hao returned it, so that the two families were even closer to each other.

Xu Hao called a group of children playing at the door and said, "You go to these people's houses and tell them that their things are ready, and you have time to come and pick them up." Xu Hao told the children the names on the list, and at the same time gave them a penny each.

The children took Xu Hao's copper coins and happily went to each house to inform the news, a penny can buy a sugar gourd, can eat a bowl of beef noodles, can buy a bunch of snacks melons and fruits, to say who in the village is the most liked by the children in the village, that is Xu Hao's family, and other villagers in the village are also happy that their children can make their own money, so Xu Hao is very popular in the village, and even some adults sell the scrap iron to Xu Hao, and the scrap iron is piled up in the backyard of Xu Hao's house.

And Xu Hao's things have undergone earth-shaking changes, the home has a new look, Liu Zhixuan asked the craftsmen to completely renovate the home, the wall has also been whitewashed, and the most important thing is that there are more than 20 sheep in the sheep house at home, Xu Hao also bought a horse, although this was said by Liu Zhixuan for a long time, but Xu Hao still bought it back.

All in all, their lives will not be so tight, after three months of tempering, Liu Zhixuan's cooking skills have improved greatly, quite the true biography of the daughter-in-law of Li carpenter next door, and she also learned to make clothes, Xu Hao's clothes are made by her, the whole family is only taken care of by her, and the people in the village are spreading Liu Zhixuan's good reputation, saying that she is a prosperous husband, saying that she is diligent, and that she is virtuous.

Xu Hao walked into the main house, Liu Zhixuan was sitting on the clay kang at home doing embroidery, he walked over and lay on the clay kang and yawned comfortably.
