Da Lang smiled and motioned for Momoku to look in the direction he had just come.

I saw a stout man glancing around towards where they were.

"Chef Liu has worked hard, take this money and have a drink!" Take out the twenty wen you just counted and hand it to the person who came.

Chef Liu looked at it and smiled with satisfaction: "It's still brother, you are righteous, don't worry, next time you have something to come to my brother!" After saying that, he hurried back.

"Still don't understand? This is the intermediary fee, the benefit fee that the chef will charge for introducing you to the shopkeeper. F11 couldn't stand her sluggishness and couldn't help but explain.

Taozhuo was speechless, he seemed to be really stupid, and he had to think about it for a long time.

"The point is that I haven't figured it out for a long time." F11 Touch-up.

Next, the two went to the pharmacy and sold the medicine that could be exchanged for money for 30 wen before going to Xianghe Buzhuang.

This time not only the old shopkeeper was there, but there was also an elderly woman, who was introduced to know that it was Mrs. Zhou, the daughter-in-law of the shopkeeper Zhou, and recognized it at a glance when she saw Taozhuo, after all, it was easy for people to remember that she looked good.

"The girl is here to sell something?" The old shopkeeper looked at her with a smile.

"Yes!" Tao Zhuo took out the wrapped eight handkerchiefs and placed them on the counter.

The old shopkeeper picked it up and looked at it one by one, and nodded and admired while watching: "This embroidery skill is really exquisite, and the stitching method is also very novel, yes, I want eight sheets." ”

He counted four hundred and ten cents and put it on the counter.

"Your workmanship is more exquisite than others, give you ten more wen, do you want to look at the others?"

"Thank you, shopkeeper, I'm about to buy some more fabric."

F11 is surprised: This pound of rice is only a few pennies, and the money of a handkerchief can buy ten catties of rice, so some people buy this useless handkerchief? I really don't know what humans think.

"How many of the shops on this street are in the business of poor people? Ordinary people make their own things, how can they come here to buy, and those who come here to buy things are not bad for money! ”

Of course, I only chose this high-end Xianghe cloth village, because I have confidence in my embroidery skills and don't want to take the low-end route, otherwise the handkerchiefs in the ordinary Xianghe cloth village are also sold for a few or more than a dozen yuan.

F11 didn't hear Taozhuo's words, but was wondering: What's the matter, I just thought in my heart just now and didn't say it, how could Taozhuo hear it?

The husband and wife bought a lot of things and pushed them back with a cart, and they received attention as soon as they entered the village.

This time, Da Lang was thinking about returning Aunt Hua's cart, plus taking Taozhuo to recognize the door, in case he was not at home and had anything to do, she could also come to Aunt Hua by herself, and she didn't want to take the initiative to greet him when he met people along the way, which was a rare thing in the two years he returned to the village.

There are also a lot of greedy eyes staring at the car, all thinking about how much food should be here, but fortunately, although the villagers said that they couldn't eat enough, they were not so hungry that Cheng Dù lost his mind, but they were just envious of Da Lang's ability.

"Da Lang is really good, I heard the lotus say that you hit a big worm?" A snarky-looking woman stopped in front of her.

"Yes, auntie." Da Lang reversed his previous enthusiasm for the villagers, and said hello very coldly and wanted to leave.

I don't want the person in front of me to be very thick-skinned, and when I saw that Da Lang ignored her, he turned to Taozhuo:

"This is Dalang's daughter-in-law, right? Look, it's the first time my aunt has seen such a handsome person, and I'm free to come to my aunt's house to sit. But my aunt's family is poor, and I can't complain that you don't come, and your brother and sister haven't eaten a few meals, and they are so hungry that they only have one breath left. After speaking, he wiped his eyes thoughtfully.

Taozhuo couldn't understand what the situation was, Da Lang's face darkened, and he simply ignored this aunt, pulled Taozhuo and left, only to be so angry that the aunt was cursing there.

I couldn't see anyone, so I told Taozhuo that this was his uncle's aunt who occupied his family's land.

"Don't ignore her when you see her in the future, she likes to take advantage, and once she gets wet, she can't get rid of it."

Tao Zhuo and Da Lang left after standing at Aunt Hua's, during which many people came to see Tao Zhuo curiously, and when they saw her beautiful face, they just praised her for her good looks, but it did not cause a few men to covet it. Desire, this stomach can't be full, where will you think about other people's women.

"Didn't you say that the people in the village rejected Da Lang? I can't see it! Seeing that many people greeted Da Lang, Tao Zhuo felt strange.

"I avoided him before, but today I am so enthusiastic that I guess he has the real ability to kill the tiger! In a village like theirs, at best, they don't have to worry about food, but what about the reality?

Wild boars, wolves, and foxes on the mountain often go down the mountain to plague crops and livestock, and the village organizes young and strong people to hunt on the outskirts of the mountain every year when it is harvested in autumn, one is to get some meat for the winter, and the main thing is to drive away these wild beasts, and every year there are labor injuries and even deaths.

Now that Da Lang has this ability, it is a top few people, how can they not be happy and make friends with the village when they are full of labor! ”

Taozhuo sighed after hearing this, no matter which time and space or which circle it is, people can't do without the word "profit".

"What's wrong, Peach? But what's wrong with it? ”

Da Lang packed up the things he bought today, and then took out the meat hidden in the cellar this morning and hung it under the window to dry, cut some fresh and planned to make a good meal for his daughter-in-law, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard Tao Zhuo's sigh and hurriedly asked.

Momojo came back to his senses. "Nothing! You put the meat in the cellar, and you are not afraid of spoiling it on this hot day? ”

Da Lang smiled: "No way, there are a few people in the village who are used to stealing chickens and dogs, and when we went to the village in the morning, they knew that we had hunted tigers, and I was afraid that if we were not at home, they would come to the house to steal meat." ”

When he came back, he checked that there were traces of rummaging on his face, but fortunately, the cellar was hidden and not found by them, so it seemed that the family had to have a dog.

"By the way, this is for you!" He handed the silver in his arms to Momo.

Not counting Taozhuo's income from selling handkerchiefs, he earned a total of 15 taels and 2 yuan and 310 wen today, excluding the purchase of white rice and brown rice, thick noodles, oil, salt and other items shared 1 yuan and 262 wen, and he handed over the remaining 15 taels and 1 yuan and 48 wen to Taozhuo.

Looking at the money bag handed to him, Tao Zhuo was stunned and looked at Da Lang puzzled.

F11 looked at Tao Zhuo in frustration, I don't know, good men have to hand over their money to their daughter-in-law for safekeeping!

Tao Zhuo saw that Da Lang's slightly dark complexion was even more red and black, he had never gotten along with a woman before, and he didn't know how to be good to his sweetheart, remembering that he heard some experienced people in the barracks say that handing over the family's money to his daughter-in-law for safekeeping would make them happy, although he didn't understand the truth, but he knew that he wanted Xiao Tao to be happy.

Tao Zhuo took the money bag without hesitation, looked around, and didn't see anything to hide.

Da Lang breathed a sigh of relief, and then discussed his plans with her:

"Our family doesn't have a field, and we can't always count on hunting to make a living, I plan to use this silver to buy a few acres of land, what do you think?"

Tao Zhuo thought about it carefully, and felt that his words were also very reasonable, no matter when, it was always right to have more land: "I think it's feasible, but how much can you buy with all this silver?" ”

Seeing that Taozhuo agreed with him, Da Lang also let go of the news he had inquired about:

"I asked the village chief before, the high-quality paddy field costs 5 taels of silver per mu, and the dry field costs 2 taels, but although it has been a famine year in the past two years, there is no one in Xiaonanzhuang who sells the land.

There is another kind of wasteland that no one has planted, this kind of is much cheaper, 1 tael of silver can buy 3 acres, I think we have a dozen acres before and after the house, it is better to buy them all, although the terrain is high can only be planted dry land, but it is better to be close to home and easy to take care of, you see? ”

Da Lang was a little embarrassed to look at Tao Zhuo, he really didn't think that he was a man who couldn't live without his daughter-in-law before, but since he had Xiao Tao, as long as he left her side, he always thought about it.

Taozhuo seems to be thinking on the surface, but in fact he is complaining to F11:

"This field is too expensive, isn't it? The price of grain is so low, and the price of land is so high, it is not proportional! ”

"That's normal! The property is passed down from generation to generation and is permanent. Moreover, most of the land is in the hands of wealthy households, and many farmers are only renting their crops and do not have much of their own land. ”

After the two of them summed it up, the next morning Da Lang took two catties of meat and went to the village chief's house, and it went very smoothly, but the formalities were completed in one morning.

In fact, it is easy to understand that there is no surplus fertile land in the village, but there is a lot of wasteland in any village, not that people are lazy to open up wasteland, but that the land is barren, even if it is opened for a few years, it will not be able to collect much food, and it is a waste of seeds and manpower, you must know that the field is subject to taxes.

In this village, the village chief said that he was counted, and he didn't need to actually measure it, where and how many places the village chief knew the approximate number, and asked about the range he wanted, about 25 acres, and the village chief calculated that it was 24 acres and wiped a fraction of 8 taels of silver, and immediately took him to the county government of Cuiping County to register, and paid a fee to get the paperwork.

The matter was done to make Da Lang breathe a sigh of relief, from now on he can be regarded as a person with a field, it is foreseeable that the future will be better and better, and he is eager to go back and share the joy with Taozhuo.

Tao Zhuo is also busy, she came back from the street yesterday to buy a lot of fabrics, she is making clothes for herself, she has not made narrow sleeves before, this time it is cut according to the clothes she wears.

Let's try to make two pieces for myself, if it is suitable, she plans to make some ready-to-wear clothes and sell them in Xianghe Cloth Village, although it takes more effort than making handkerchiefs, the income is much more than that.

In fact, in her opinion, this family lacks everything, and before Da Lang lived alone, he couldn't think of so much, all of them were simple, and now the things to prepare for living at home must be complete.

Thinking about it while taking the soles of the rags glued to the shoe that Xianghe Buzhuang bought in the sun, Da Lang has always been wearing straw sandals on his feet, and she plans to make a pair of shoes for him and herself, although the ones on her feet have been mended, they are still not so comfortable to wear.
