Chapter 62: The Contract
The old man took a bite and put down his chopsticks, and the shopkeeper handed over the handkerchief.
After wiping the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, the old man looked at the shopkeeper Gao, "It tastes okay, but it's not made in your store, right?" ”
A smile immediately appeared on the face of the shopkeeper Gao, and the chrysanthemum bloomed, "Master Cheng is amazing, he can't hide anything from you, this vegetable box is indeed not made by a small shop, it was brought by these children." ”
That old man Cheng's eyes skimmed over the Cui family brothers and sisters, and finally stopped at the shopkeeper Gao, "Oh, so your Yuexiang Pavilion must have a new trick again, right?" ”
"Of course, if there is a new product, it will be sent to your house for you to taste first." The shopkeeper replied with a smile.
"Okay, it's rare that you have a heart." Master Cheng said, "You have a guest here, so I'll go back first." ”
"It should be, it should be."
The shopkeeper Gao personally sent Master Cheng outside the door before coming back to sit down.
"Xiaojian, you guys are my lucky stars." The shopkeeper Gao looked happy, "That is a nobleman, I didn't expect your vegetable box to enter his eyes." ”
"I'll add a penny to you for this dish, you can't sell it to other families." The shopkeeper said.
"It's okay to sell it to only one family, but this dish can only be eaten for a while, and it will probably last for a month." Cui Yuanjian said that Xiaoxiao told him everything about Huang Ya on the road.
"Yes, but you can only sell it to me." The high shopkeeper emphasized again.
"The high shopkeeper, we can make a paperwork." Cui Yuanjian said.
The shopkeeper Gao looked at Cui Yuanjian in surprise, this kid actually knew how to make a deed.
"Okay, let's make a contract." Although if the Cui family brothers and sisters dare to sell another family, the high shopkeeper has a way to clean them up, but it is easier to make a contract, and it can also reassure the Cui family brothers and sisters.
The shopkeeper Gao quickly drew up the contract, in duplicate, and Cui Yuanjian had no problem after reading it, so he signed his name and pressed his handprint.
"Okay, you can send ten catties over tomorrow morning. I'll make it clear to you the day before how much to send the next day. Shopkeeper Gao thought about it and said.
"Okay."
Coming out of Yuexiang Pavilion, the Cui family brothers and sisters had an extra roast chicken in their back baskets.
After shopping, Uncle Guo's ox cart also came back from the county seat, and the Cui brothers and sisters got on the ox cart and went back to Dahuaishu Village.
Uncle Guo took out three pieces of candy from his arms, which were also made of maltose, which were somewhat similar to Bangbang candy, except that they were not spherical, but the appearance of various small animals.
"Uncle Guo, it must be very expensive, right?" Cui Xiaoxiao asked.
"It's not expensive." Uncle Guo said happily, "Eat quickly, I'll buy it for you next time, the things sold in this county are better than those in the town." There is no such sugar sold in the town. ”
Cui Xiaoxiao pursed his lips, even if Uncle Guo's money for this trip is cheaper, he has to take it, looking at Uncle Guo's happy appearance, Cui Xiaoxiao understands a little.
When I returned home, I was safe for a few days.
The chicks and piglets bought back have completely become Cui Yuankang's favorites, and he does the feeding work every day.
The chicks were still young, so they were kept in the basket, Cui Yuankang put the paper under the basket after he had written the big characters, changed it every day, fed and fed on time, and dug up the wild vegetables that the pigs loved to eat every day, carefully chopped them, and accompanied them to the corn paste for the pigs to eat.
That day, Cui Xiaoxiao overheard Cui Yuankang muttering to the chick, "I'll feed you well, you grow up quickly, lay more eggs." ”
Cui Xiaoxiao finally understood why the second brother was so concerned.
Cui Xiaoxiao also secretly fed some spiritual spring water, not to mention that the chicks and piglets are all strong, especially the chicks, but they have grown small wings and small tails in a few days, and then they grow into the size of small pigeons and can be put outside.
The Cui family brothers and sisters are not very good at distinguishing between roosters and hens, but they are not in a hurry, and when the cockscombs grow, the male and female will be clear at a glance. The rooster grows up and eats meat, and the hen eats eggs, which is good.
When Sister Xiaohui came over, Cui Yuankang was letting the chickens bask in the sun.
"This chicken is really good, but why are there so many roosters?" Xiaohui looked at the chick seriously and asked.
"You see these hairs grow slowly, their tails are pointed, and most of them are roosters." Xiaohui said.
"Sister Xiaohui, do you know this? I thought they weren't well raised. Cui Yuankang was in a hurry.
"I've also raised chickens, and I have fed them more than a few of them in a group of chicks. I didn't expect it to be a rooster when it grew up. Xiaohui said.
"Oh, the rooster is good, too." Cui Yuankang said that as soon as the rooster grows up, it will definitely be killed to eat meat.
"Xiaokang, my uncle has found a guy for us, I'll ask you if you can do it." Xiaohui said what he wanted to do today.
"Okay, Sister Xiaohui, let's go into the house and say, I'll call my brother and Xiaoxiao." Cui Yuankang led Xiaohui into the house and went to find someone.
"Sister Xiaohui, what kind of work?" Cui Yuanjian asked when he entered the house, and Yuankang briefly talked to him.
"It's to stack ingots for the coffin shop, and a hundred stacks can cost five cents, and my mother and I can stack almost a thousand a day.
Stacking ingots is simple, you can all do it, there are three of you, there should be more than me and my mother. "Last time, the knife mantis Xiaohui made a lot of money, and this time my uncle introduced this guy, and Xiaohui was the first to think of letting the Cui family brothers and sisters do it together.
Cui Yuanjian calculated that the three of them did not stop at all, and they only had more than seventy yuan a day. They earn more than that, and the most important thing is that they can spend half a day studying.
"It's not appropriate. Isn't it appropriate for us to do the job your uncle has given you? Cui Yuanjian asked.
"No, it's just that I got the job, go home and fold it, just get more." Xiaohui said.
"In that case, we'll have less. During the day, we have to leave more time to read, and we can't overlap much. Cui Yuanjian thought about it, it was better to keep some, and it was good to grind Yuankang's temperament.
Cui Xiaoxin was a little sorry, Huang Ya's matter signed a contract with the shopkeeper Gao, and he couldn't let Sister Xiaohui do it together.
"Xiaojian, the well-off want to study, that's fine, then just keep less." Xiaohui said.
When it comes to reading, Yuan Jian has more words, "It's just a matter of recognizing a few words, even if you are young, you are also learning." ”
"Xiaoxiao is also learning?" Xiaohui was a little surprised, and envy crossed her eyes.
"Sister Xiaohui also come over to learn, learn while stacking ingots, and recognize words first." Cui Xiaoxiao said that if Sister Xiaohui can read and write, she will have more advantages in the future.
"Can I learn too?" Xiao Hui exclaimed, her hands trembling slightly.
"Of course, come and study with me. Okay? Cui Xiaoxiao hugged Xiaohui's arm and said. (To be continued)
