Chapter 109: A Strange Idea
Tang Qing'er is now difficult to ride a tiger, and there is no one to rely on at home, looking at Xue Qianxun's handsome face that is about to get closer, he hurriedly dodge, and said with a slight stumble: "Brother Xue, don't ...... Don't ......, "Don't destroy flowers with spicy hands, I'm still so young, you plan to eat tender grass from the old cow, and it's not like you to mess around."
Xue Qianxun heard a satisfied voice in his ears, so he retracted his body, and sat up straight throughout the Eight Classics, at this time, Tang Tiezhu came in from the gate of the courtyard, perhaps from Jiao'er's mouth to hear about the matter, seeing Xue Qianxun doing it in the courtyard, he didn't have any surprise, but smiled and said, "Xue Gongzi is here,"
Xue Qianxun said implicitly: "Uncle Tang, I have come to your house several times to disturb you, and you still call me Xue Gongzi, how can I bear it?"
Tang Tiezhu laughed and said: "Yes, look at my memory," carelessly, he didn't notice that the eldest girl's cheeks were red, and when he saw it, he thought that the girl had a fever when she got up early, so he touched her forehead and said, "I don't have a fever either!" ”
Tang Qing'er took advantage of her father's inattention, glared at Xue Qianxun, and said to her father in her heart: "Dad, I don't have a fever, but someone is complaining about your daughter?" You've got too many nerves! But he said, "But it's a little hot to work."
Tang Tiezhu sighed, and then said to Xue Qianxun: "I don't know why Xue Xian's nephew is here,"
Xue Qianxun didn't tease Tang Qing'er, but turned to Tang Tiezhu and said, "I know that you sell mushrooms to restaurants every year at the beginning of spring, so I want to buy your method of growing mushrooms,"
Tang Tiezhu was entangled, embarrassed, if his mother-in-law could still discuss it with her, but he went to his mother-in-law, his eyes couldn't help but look at his daughter, Tang Qing'er was also looking down about it, and as soon as she looked up, she saw that her father had been staring at her, she thought about it and said slowly: "Xue Gongzi...... Brother Xue, you also know that my family grows mushrooms for food and clothing, this is considered an entry, if it is sold to you, although it is sold to you, we can earn a lot of silver, but when the silver is always spent, it is better to keep the recipe in your hands, and sell it to earn it, "There has always been running money."
Tang Tiezhu felt that what his daughter said was right and nodded.
Xue Qianxun knew very early on that almost all of the ideas for making money in this house were come up with by Tang Qing'er, and he was even more curious about how she came up with these ways to make money in her brain, and her eyes deepened as she watched her.
The so-called no profit is not early, the businessman himself is very profitable, buying mushroom recipes is a double win for him, he can make money and get close to the Tang family, if they really agree to sell, he is still a little disappointed, now they say not to sell, he changed his mind, tunnel: "Uncle Tang, how do you see this, let's grow mushrooms together, I pay for it, you come up with the planting method, how about it?" ”
Tang Qing'er felt that this was a good idea, if the mushrooms were planted on a large scale and there were sales channels of the Xue family, the money would not be more than that of their own scattered planting, and he nodded and asked how to divide it, Xue Qianxun's business showed the nature of a businessman, and said: "Twenty-eight, I am eight and you are two,"
Tang Qing'er shook her head and disagreed: "Brother Xue, the most profitable season for planting mushrooms is winter and early spring, but winter is the most difficult time period for mushrooms to grow, so my family has never planted mushrooms in winter, and it is better in spring, and we dare to plant mushrooms when the weather is warmer, so if we want to make a lot of money, we must grow mushrooms in winter, and planting mushrooms in that season is time-consuming and laborious, some seeds are only available in my family, you can't get them at all, so to speak, my family has both seeds and ideas, if the 28 stratification is too unfair for us." ”
Xue Qianxun actually planned to plant mushrooms in spring and summer, where did he think that Tang Qing'er actually wanted to plant mushrooms in winter, how to grow mushrooms in the cold winter, this idea was a little whimsical just by listening, but he also wanted to hear what whimsical things she could say, and said: "Oh, then you can tell me how to grow mushrooms in winter, if I think the method is feasible, it will be redistributed and stratified." ”
Tang Qing'er looked at her father with the same surprised eyes, but she couldn't care about this, if she could join forces with Xue Qianxun to make money, the younger brothers would have to go to Beijing to take the exam in the future, so she said: "Planting mushrooms is the same as us, we are afraid of cold in winter, we can live in the house to avoid the cold, why can't mushrooms, Xue Gongzi, you buy an acre of dry land in our village, it is best to be closer to our house, build two houses on the ground, ten meters long and three meters high, and build a soil kang for each of the two houses. Leave a gap of half a meter in the middle, and then build a wooden frame to stand on both sides of the earthen kang, the wooden frame is like a ladder, and the wooden frame is horizontally crossed with a wooden plank on each ladder, and the wooden frame is best four layers. ”
Tang Qing'er crackled and said a lot of words, Xue Qianxun imagined this thing in his mind, and felt that this idea was indeed feasible, but he still had some questions, and said: "When the kang is burned, how to release the smoke, if the smoke can't be released, what should I do if the mushroom bed next to the kang can't stand the temperature, and how to get the water source." ”
Tang Qing'er can easily solve the first two problems, and said eloquently: "You can put the vent of the kang against the wall, dig a hole in the position of the wall, and the mushroom bed next to the kang Who said that I am going to plant mushrooms, because of the proximity and the high temperature, mushrooms are not easy to grow, so I plan to plant some heat-resistant vegetables, which can be sold for money in winter and kept for my own food," noticed Xue Qianxun's satisfied eyes, and said cautiously: "As for the third one, it is indeed a bit troublesome, I ......haven't thought of it yet." He secretly glanced at Xue Qianxun again to see if he could think of anything else.
Tang Tiezhu has not spoken since he entered the courtyard and said a few words to Xue Qianxun, sitting in the courtyard listening to the conversation between his daughter and Xue Qianxun, and finally couldn't help but say: "We can dig a well in the house,"
Tang Qing'er smiled and said: "It won't work, Dad, you want to dig a well in the middle of a ten-meter-long house, even if the well is opened, isn't it the same to be carried around by people?" "If it was so simple, Tang Qing'er would have said it a long time ago, why would she be so bothered.
Tang Tiezhu thought about it, looked at the two of them awkwardly, and didn't speak.
Once Xue Qianxun's brain thought about things, his hands unconsciously knocked on the table, Tang Qing'er also lowered his head and clasped his fingers to think about the water source, after a while, the two of them opened their eyes at the same time, and said in unison: "Dig a ditch," dig a ditch, if you dig a ditch in each place, the water will be left along the ditch to one place, so that you don't have to carry water back and forth.
Tang Qing'er was still a little disappointed when she thought of this method, looked up at the sky, and just wanted to scold, this era is too backward, it would be great if it could be like the tea plantations in the modern south, 360 degrees of all-round spray of water, all without the need for people to water, alas, this is ancient times.
Thinking of this, Tang Qing'er suddenly had an idea and said: "Brother Xue, I have thought of a good way to spray water on the mushroom bed, but this needs to be made with silver, if you want to know, I will start drawing the pattern today, and you will come and get it in a few days,"
Xue Qianxun smiled and said, "Okay,"
Tang Qing'er's words had extended meaning, trying to ask Xue Qianxun if she wanted her to invent something new, but in fact, she wanted to ask, after listening to her idea, would you still grow mushrooms together?
Tang Qing'er narrowed her eyes with a smile and said, "Then how should we layer this time?" ”
"Four or five points, that's my bottom line."
Tang Qing'er still wanted to reply, but was blocked by Xue Qianxun's next sentence: "You calculate how much silver it costs to build two houses, and each house has to build kang, tile money, labor, etc., I am a businessman, and it is impossible for me to let myself do a loss-making business, besides, although the method you said about growing mushrooms in winter is very good, it is not necessarily feasible to implement, if it doesn't work, won't the silver I spent be wasted, huh?" ”
Tang Qing'er calculated it in her heart, and it was indeed as Xue Qianxun said, so she no longer squeaked, but there was still one thing attached, that is, the document must be made and signed.
Tang Qing'er's domineering side made Xue Qianxun amused, so he also added by the way, if he can't grow mushrooms in winter, what should he do if he invests all this money in it, and at least what can you bear the consequences?
Tang Qing'er patted her chest with confidence and said: "Don't worry, it will definitely make you a lot of money in winter, if you don't succeed, the conditions are up to you," the bigger the bait said, the fish can take the bait.
Xue Qianxun nodded and agreed, and agreed to ask someone to write a document next time they meet, and each of them can find a witness to testify, so that the two parties can reach a deal.
Tang Tiezhu was a little worried when he heard his daughter's last sentence: "The conditions are up to you", how can this partnership do business get more and more serious, coughed, grabbed his daughter's arm and said: "Qing'er, let's forget it, our family earns enough money to spend now, let's live in peace and stability!" If your mother knows afterwards, she won't scold the two of us,"
Tang Qing'er comforted her father and said: "Support the bold, starve the cowardly, the more timid we are, the more we can't make money, the wood and stone boy have passed, and then show off talents, lift people, and finally if they are admitted to the top prize, we must earn more money in order to make them study with peace of mind," She hasn't called Tang Yang Tang Liang's nickname for a long time, and now this atmosphere calls out their nicknames, and her father will agree with her idea when he looks back.
"This ...... This...... If your mother asks about this when she comes back, what should you say? ”
"Dad, what season is it, and how long is it until winter? Now if you don't say it, I won't say it, when my mother knows, even if there is a big fire, I can't be beaten by her at most, and the worst consequence for you is to talk to your mother, she doesn't care about you, no matter how you say it, it's better than me! "Maybe her ass will have to bloom like it did three years ago?
"Huh...... Okay, just do as you say, and hide it from your mother first," the girl's analysis was the head, and he no longer objected.
Xue Qianxun saw that the conversation between the two was very interesting, no one paid attention to him, and helplessly touched his nose and said to Sanshun: "We should go back to the town, we are not allowed to tell anyone about today's events, even if your grandmother asks you, you are not allowed to leak it, you know?" ”
The young master had spoken, and Sanshun dared to say anything, so he agreed resignedly.
Tang Tiezhu's father and daughter also felt embarrassed, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and this little about his own family was still heard by an outsider, Tang Tiezhu got up and said: "Why don't you have a nephew here for lunch and then leave,"
Xue Qianxun deliberately looked at Tang Qing'er's face, this girl actually smiled and nodded, he could guess her careful thinking at this time, she was about to make a lot of money, how could she be unhappy, so she would keep herself, she was really a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be fed.
Xue Qianxun shook his head and said, "It's been a long time since I came out, and there are still some things waiting for me to do in the shops in the town, so I can't stay here for long, I will definitely bother me next time," said Tang Tiezhu and bent down to say goodbye.
Tang Tiezhu was staying, taking his daughter's hand and going out to see him off.
Xue Qianxun smiled and asked them to stay, got into the carriage, and drove the carriage back to the town by the way.
Entering the courtyard, Tang Qing'er smiled stupidly for a while and said, "Dad, we're going to get rich, we're going to make a fortune, we're going to buy a house in the town to live in, haha." ”
Tang Tietie laughed first, and then said with a straight face: "You baby is too flamboyant, I'm afraid of ......" I'm afraid that Xue Gongzi has bad intentions.
"Dad, what are you thinking? I'm so smart, if I can't do something, can I easily say yes? You don't know your daughter," he said with a smile, went to the table and picked up the book on the table, and went back to the house in a hurry.
