When all the camellia fruits in the mountains were picked, all the dogwoods were also cleaned, and the Chang family could finally escape the days of being smoked by the smell of dogwood every day.

Finally, I counted the dogwood sauce and spicy rice oil, and the amount made people gasp, which is also too much! This is also because a lot of them are dried into dogwood, and if they were all made into dogwood sauce and spicy rice oil, the amount would be more and more terrifying.

The warehouses that have just been built are all piled up, which is still the result of a part of the camellia seeds piled up in the oil mill, and there are also a lot of piles on the second floor of the three-room main house of the Chang family.

It's not that the warehouse is not calculated to be small, but if you want to build a bigger one, the manpower and material resources consumed are a little too large. They now have too much money invested in the dogwood and the oil mill, and although they still have some activity funds on hand, they don't dare to spend too much, and it is not too late to build it when the turnover comes, and it will not be completely piled up anyway.

The people in the third room of the Chang family looked at such a pile of things, and they were really happy and sad.

"Tea oil is forgotten, we have a poor list, we must not be able to lose. But with so much dogwood sauce and spicy rice oil, we can't use up so much in our stall. Grandma Sun said worriedly.

Cao's second sister-in-law also said: "According to the previous business, it is good to be able to use up two or three percent in a year." ”

Chang Xixing asked: "Isn't there someone who was willing to exchange dogwood for dogwood sauce and spicy rice oil before, isn't this a lot of consumption?" ”

Chang Xisheng shook his head, "That's not much, everyone still hopes to get money." Even if it's spicy, I'd rather make do with it myself. Everyone is now frightened by the previous Qian family's price reduction, and they are all blushing to make money, and they are reluctant to miss a single one. Now there are a lot more people digging rivers than before, but the business is not good, not to mention that they are making less money than before. ”

Chang Xisheng's words are not exaggerated, as the saying goes, there is food in your hands and you don't panic. Although everyone loves money, most of the time they actually feel that having food in their hands is the most reliable. Otherwise, there will be some kind of natural disaster*, and you will not be able to eat if you have money.

But it's different when you have food, you can eat it yourself, and when you need it, you can exchange it for money, which is very convenient. Therefore, they are more enthusiastic about farming and harvesting grain, and they are less concerned about going out to work and earn wages, except when the farming is not working.

But this time, the price was too much pressed, and the farmers were afraid of collecting taxes like this in the future, and they wanted to pull money into their pockets, and they were unwilling to let go as long as there was a slight opportunity.

There used to be a popular saying in various villages, saying that now those who are a little able to do heavy work have gone to the river, and there is not even a man in the village who can do the best things, and if there is a mountain bandit or something, he will be looted directly.

Originally, I didn't know who was talking about it, but it also scared people when it came and went.

In these years, the people have been worried about too many things, not only to watch God eat, but also to prevent it*. Smaller and richer villages are easy to provoke bandits, those bandits are not green forest heroes, they are all villains who do house robbery, if you provoke the woman who was robbed of food, not to mention, it is possible to be slaughtered in the village.

Moreover, the geographical characteristics of Pumpkin Mansion are the most easy to hide bandits, and people can't find them at all when they hide in the mountains. Let those bandits be even more unscrupulous, and the government will be helpless. Although it is still rare for bandits to go down the mountain and enter the village to rob now, there is a thing for everything. There is no shortage of officials and bandits in this world, and the people in that place are really bad crimes.

Everyone thought of the bandits that Chang Yu killed before, and they all beat drums in their hearts, thinking about it carefully, this is not possible, if the strong men are gone, isn't this deliberately making the bandits worry!

So the Li Zheng of each village hurriedly recalled some of the strong men who worked on the river to defend the village, which was important to make money, but it had to be spent.

In this way, everyone will not dare to take one out of the outside and pull it into their pockets desperately.

Taoyuan Village is much happier than other villages, and the ancestors fled here because they saw that it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as the people outside the pass could not enter. Therefore, the people of Taoyuan Village only need to recall a part of the strong men to guard, and there is no need to recall too much labor.

"What's that going on? We've collected so much, won't it smash our hands when the time comes? Second brother, can they accept it? Sell them a little. Chang Xiwang scratched his head and said.

Grandma Sun's eyes lit up, "Yes, isn't there still a Qincha, if he is willing to buy a lot!" ”

Chang Xisheng wanted to laugh and was helpless, "Mother, this thing is not the same as oil." Oil must be eaten, this thing is a seasoning, and there are some spare money officials and stewards to buy some, it is impossible to eat it for the people like oil, so it can't consume much. ”

Grandma Sun was immediately very disappointed.

Chang Xisheng hurriedly said: "Although they don't want much, they can sell some of it." ”

Hearing this, Grandma Sun's face softened slightly, and she turned her eyes to Chang Xile, feeling that he would definitely be able to solve this problem. Others also set their eyes on Chang Xile, which meant the same as Grandma's son.

Chang Xile naturally felt that to be honest, the number of these things did exceed his imagination. However, the loss is not enough, according to the number of sales he currently calculates, there will still be no big problem in preserving the capital.

But they can't work in vain, and they can't waste such a good thing. And the reason why he wants to collect so much is because he wants to sell it to make money.

Chang Xile didn't give a direct answer, but turned to Chang Xisheng, "Second brother, what do you think?" ”

Chang Xisheng was stunned, although he had realized that Chang Xile valued him very much in business, it was the first time that he was asked for his opinion by name like this. He knew what that meant, and he couldn't help but feel a little unresponsive.

Others didn't expect Chang Xile to ask Chang Xisheng's opinion, if he had thought it was very incredible before, but now he saw that Chang Xisheng's business was doing well, and he pulled a big order from Qincha, although it was still a little surprised, but it was not too surprising.

Seeing that Chang Xisheng didn't speak for a while, Chang Xile encouraged again: "Second brother, you can talk about it." ”

Chang Xisheng is not without guts, he came back to his senses, cleared his throat and said what he thought in his heart, "I think whether it is tea oil or dogwood, we have to go to the county or even the government to find a way to sell it." ”

Grandma Sun couldn't help but speak, "Forget about the dogwood, isn't the tea oil sold by Qincha over there." I don't believe that the big guys don't eat oil, so let's sell it to the nearby folks. And when I went to the house, I couldn't earn back the travel expenses alone. ”

Since Chang Xisheng opened his mouth, he didn't intend to hide it, and he didn't show timidity in the face of his grandmother's questioning, and stated what he thought in his heart.

"I think so, the river looks at this situation, if it is early, it will be completed by this time next year, even if it is late the next year, then the big order on the Qincha side will definitely be invalidated. If we don't find more buyers in advance, our business will have to stop at that time. So I thought, plan ahead so that you don't panic when you get it. ”

The others all felt justified when they heard this, only Daddy Chang frowned.

Chang Xisheng was very worried in his heart, he knew that Chang Lao's father had always disapproved of him doing business, if he opposed it at this time, then he was afraid that the river would be completed, and I was afraid that he would not even let him set up a stall, so he would have to go home and farm obediently.

Chang Xile said at this time: "The second brother is thoughtful, if you want these two businesses to last for a long time, you really have to plan now." Our oil mill has invested so much money, we definitely can't just do it for a year or two. If this is sold to our nearby villages, it will not make much money, and everyone will exchange the tea seeds they have collected at most. We have to sell it to the county government before we can get the money. ”

Father Chang still frowned, "But even if that's the case, you don't have to sell it to the house." ”

Chang Xile said: "Dad, you also know what the situation is in our county, and it will definitely not sell much at that time." What's more, there are still rich people in control, and it is okay to sell a little money, and if they want to sell so much of our oil, they will definitely squeeze out their business, where will they agree?

If you don't make it that big, you don't need so many fruits in the mountains, what a pity. Besides, we have also seen that so many villagers can earn some money by pointing to these things, and we can't let them down. ”

The last sentence was addressed to Daddy Chang, and as soon as these words fell, Daddy Chang's face eased a lot.

Many men have the ambition to do a big career and want to do their part for the benefit of their hometown, and Daddy Chang is also such a person.

It's just that the hardships of life make him just think about it in his heart, but now when he hears Chang Xile say this, his heart is not untouched.

Moreover, doing this is also good for their family, and they can do it themselves, so they are even more excited.

Chang Xile hit the railroad while it was hot: "Actually, I have long had the idea of doing business in the house, not only the dogwood and tea oil we have on hand, but more importantly, our grain and cloth!" The Qian family is unreliable, and this year they didn't lower the price later, it was also because of the relationship between Qin Cha, but if he leaves, do you think he will be so easy to talk to? Then what can the people in our village do?

When the time comes, the Qian family will definitely be like this time, deliberately putting the blame on our family, wanting us to not be able to get along in Taoyuan Village or even Daoxiang County. So I thought about exploring the road as soon as possible, and I didn't think I could sell it for money at first, as long as I could open up this road, this was the biggest credit. ”

Grandma Sun couldn't help but ask: "This is reasonable, that is, this back and forth to the house, the grain cloth is pulled out to sell, and the round-trip freight is not enough." ”

Chang Xile smiled: "Mother, have you forgotten what the river is for?" At that time, as long as there is a boat, won't it be time for us to go to the house for a sleep? ”

Grandma Sun clapped her hands and applauded, "That's right! How did I forget this stubble? If that time comes, we won't be afraid of the Qian family! It's just why don't you wait until that time to talk about it, it's so troublesome to go back and forth to the house now. ”

"Mother, this matter can't wait. We can think of using this river, how could the Qian family not think of it? How can we guarantee that he won't block our road in advance? After all, he has a wide range of connections, and his path is definitely not ordinary, and if he wants to enter the industry, he must plan early.

And our dogwood and tea oil business is just exploring the way, these two things are not his business, so there is no positive interest dispute, and he will not pay too much attention, so as not to strangle our business before it starts. At that time, we will find a way to sell dogwood and tea oil on the surface, and we will have to find a way to sell grain and cloth in private. ”

The big guy froze when he heard this, and he didn't expect Chang Xile to think about it in such a long time.

Even Chang Xisheng, who has the most flexible brain, just thought that these things would not be sold out in the county, and he didn't think of this layer. He originally felt that his brain was flexible and he was the material for this line of work, but now he began to re-examine himself, he was still too tender, no wonder Chang Xile made him think long before he was happy.

Cao's second sister-in-law sighed: "So when it comes to reading, our family is the youngest uncle, but he also thinks about the long-term, how can we live well in front of us." ”

Grandma Sun was proud and worried, "If this is the case, we really have to think about it, otherwise we will be choked by the Qian family like before, but there is no good person like Qincha to relieve us." ”

Father Chang was still silent and did not speak.

Chang Xile said again: "When the time comes, I will also go to the house to inquire about the news, not only for business, but also for scientific research." Before, Lord Qincha promised that as long as I was willing to continue the scientific examination, he could guarantee that I would be able to succeed if I had the ability. If our family wants to gain a foothold in Daoxiang County, we can't rely on business alone, I have to go to the next level to prevent the Qian family from bullying ...... at will."

Father Chang couldn't hold back now, and said excitedly: "The adult said such a thing? Can you continue your research? ”

"Yes, he told me before that he is a gentleman, and he will definitely not slander me. This year's township exam has passed, and I want to wait for another three years. This time, I went to the house to see what news there was about this year's scientific expedition, to see what kind of regulations it was, and to let me know how to prepare. Before, our family was in a bad situation, and there was no way to do this, but now I have some money, and I have to think about it. ”

Scientific research has never been easy, since ancient times, many people have been defeated by its small feet, and Chang Xile does not dare to be careless when he comes from later generations. He felt from Cuba that he would be much smarter than his predecessors, but he was only taking advantage of the more abundant resources.

Although he has the memory of the original body, he can't use it flexibly, and he doesn't understand the rules here, so he will definitely not be able to compare to a local person like the original body when he goes to the exam now. But he has a lot of experience in taking exams, and if he revises for a few years, he still has a chance to pass the exam, no matter what, he has to give it a try, which is what he must do in order to live a stable life.

Father Chang was silent for a while, "Since this is the case, this business can be done or not, as long as you are admitted, you don't have to be afraid of the Qian family." ”

Chang Xisheng's body straightened up violently when he heard this, the worry on his face couldn't be hidden, and the faces of the others were also a little awkward. I'm really used to this kind of entry, and it's always a little unwilling to go back to the original shape. But Daddy Chang's words are not reasonable, after all, they are farmers, and doing business is not a long-term thing after all.

Chang Xile shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about when I will be able to win the lift, even if I become a lifter, I can't be exempted from all the field taxes in the village." That just makes the Qian family dare not bully at will, and they are not afraid of being tripped up. But if you want our family and our village to live a good life, you have to run it. Unless I am sent to the Jinshi office, it is impossible for the Qian family to send money to us. But it's impossible for me to go one level further, and it's a blessing to be able to win. ”

Daddy Chang didn't speak for a long time this time, and his figure was buried in the dark, not knowing what kind of love he had, which made everyone a little nervous. Although everyone listens to Chang Xile now, it is still Chang Lao Dad who is in charge of this family. If he says no, even if he is always happy, he cannot be disobedient.

"That's how you want to do business?"

Father Chang asked Chang Xisheng, and he knew very well in his heart that Chang Xile's plan had a lot to do with Chang Xisheng. This family is often happy to have a talent for business, and no one else can do it. He has always understood what this son is thinking.

A farmer is not good at farming, and always thinks about other things, which makes Chang Xisheng very disliked Chang Xisheng in the past. Even in the past, he was like this, and he used this to earn the family business later.

Chang Xisheng had already made preparations, and nodded firmly, "Dad, I think my business is much better than farming." Don't you often say that it doesn't matter what you do, as long as it's not stealing or robbing, it's your ability to do it well.

If it was forgotten before, there would be no need for us to have no way, as long as we planted the fields, we would have food. But now that there are rich families in the county, the tax system has been changed, so we have to live in a different way. Even if Xiao Wu has the ability, he can't all point to Xiao Wu, he always has to think of some other way, and it is enough for our Xiao Wu to suffer a crime once. ”

Now everyone fell silent, these days Chang Xile's expression made them all forget that Chang Xile almost died because he couldn't take a scientific expedition, except for his own frustration, how could it not be because the pressure on his shoulders was too great. I was able to survive this time because I was able to do something for my family and village, so I felt that I didn't study in vain. This is also the reason why everyone often mentions that reading is good, not only to praise sincerely, but also to make Chang Xile feel less guilty.

Father Chang sighed deeply, "If you really take this path, you will definitely have to divide it in the future, so you don't care?" ”

Now the atmosphere is a little wrong, parents are not separating, this is the rule. Unless it is a descendant who is unfilial or commits a crime, it will not be separated when it is still there.

Chang Xixing hurriedly said: "Dad, even if the second brother goes to do business, he doesn't have to divide it." ”

Chang Xiwang also said: "Yes, Dad, isn't it just a deal, it's not to do anything bad, not to it." ”

"The rules are not set by me, if you want to do business, you have to change your household registration, but our family can't change it, no matter what you do in the future, this field is fundamental. When the second child wants to do business, he can only divide it, so he has to figure it out. ”

Chang Xisheng wanted to take this path, so he naturally inquired about these rules, "Dad, mother, I've thought it all through." I don't want to split up, but if I can't, I'll split up. But even so, we will always be a family, and I will not be my father's son because my household registration has changed, and I will always be my father and mother who are in charge. I just want to make my life better, do what I like, ask my father and mother to fulfill it, and forgive my children for being unfilial. ”

Chang Xisheng knelt directly in front of Chang's father, and Cao's second sister-in-law also pulled Shanzi and Xing'er to kneel down together.

Grandma Sun was also panicked at this time, and couldn't help sighing, "What kind of trouble is this!" ”

Although I don't usually value this son, after all, it's the meat that fell from my body, so I don't like it. Looking at this situation now, my heart is not forbearable after all. She didn't want the children to be separated, but what Chang Xisheng said was indeed very reasonable, and she was in a dilemma for a while, so she handed over the decision to Chang Lao's father.

Father Chang sighed again, "Get up, since you have decided, I will not stop you." It's just that even at that time, as long as you are still surnamed Chang, you have to abide by the rules of our Chang family, and don't bring me business calculations to the house, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

Chang Xisheng was pleasantly surprised, "Dad, even if our family is separated by then, the household registration has changed, and things in the family are still the same as now." ”

Daddy Chang waved his hand, "Those who will talk about it when the time comes, let's get up, let the children kneel with it." ”

Chang Xisheng and Cao's second sister-in-law hurriedly pulled the child to stand up, with a smile on their faces that could not be hidden.

Chang Xi was happy to see Chang Lao Dad relieved, and he was also very happy in his heart.

"Since the second brother has decided to take this path, the stall has to be rearranged, otherwise it will be too busy."

Chang Xisheng was ready and was not surprised by such a decision.

"There are at least two people in this business, and if the second child doesn't go, who do you have to send?" When Grandma Sun said this, she looked around the family, and she couldn't find anyone who could do it.

Chang Xiwang and his family want to take care of the oil mill, and they can't make a move at all. Chang Xixing is uncle is definitely not good for going out to do business with his brother-in-law, but Wang's sister-in-law ......

Grandma Sun's brows couldn't help frowning, although she was honest, she couldn't figure it out. These days, they are doing well, and the Wang family has started to stumble again, which really makes her look down on her. Although she can't get in the way, with her in control, those outsiders in this family can't take advantage of anything, but they don't feel happy.

Sister-in-law Wang also felt the dissatisfaction of her grandmother-in-law, and hurriedly waved her hand and said: "I definitely can't go, I'm clumsy, I'm afraid it will only help, I'm still busy at home." ”

Cao's second sister-in-law also said: "The family is too busy preparing ingredients now, and the three brothers and sisters have to run on both sides." If the sister-in-law is not there, the mother and the third siblings will have to grow two hands to get it right. ”

"This business has been in business for so long, everyone is familiar with it, and basically nothing has changed, so this job should be reassigned. I think so, this food stall is the same as an oil mill, and the second sister-in-law will be responsible for it in the future, and the share will also change. ”

Cao's second sister-in-law couldn't help but interject, "I'm responsible for it alone, and I can't turn it around." ”

The Chang family had never done business before, and at most they went out to work for others, so their roles did not change for a while. And I always want to run like a family workshop, so I'm restricted.

Chang Xile smiled and said: "Second sister-in-law, don't you say that it's the same as an oil mill." When the time comes, you can hire someone you can trust to run the stall together. It's not just about hiring one to set up a stall with you, but also hiring two people to prepare ingredients at home, just let your mother show you the key places. It's up to you what you want to do, who to hire, and how much you pay. As long as things are not too outrageous, no one in our family interferes. ”

Second sister-in-law Cao's eyes widened suddenly, "This, this, this is not big, right?" ”

Chang Xiwang said: "What's wrong, didn't I also pick up an oil mill for nothing." The second sister-in-law and the second brother of this food stall have put a lot of work into it, so you should take care of it. ”

Father Chang also spoke, "Let's do it, it's enough for our family to manage the food stall alone, and the sharing is the same as the oil mill, and no one is partial." It's up to you who you hire, but I mean it's better to split off like an oil mill instead of your mother's family. Otherwise, if something happens at that time, you will be the one who doesn't look good. ”

Although it is convenient for relatives to do things, it is easy to lose face, and as a result, they raise moths.

Second sister-in-law Cao nodded again and again, "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely not let those cheating and cheating people come to our stall and make themselves angry." When the time comes, I will also use the method of the oil mill, whoever does more and does a good job will earn more, otherwise I will get out of the house as soon as possible, and I will not be emotional. I've just had a good time myself, but I don't have the spare money to raise some things and not to mention, and people who have a lot of trouble. ”

Chang Lao Dad nodded appreciatively, he agreed with Chang Xile's opinion that he also knew that the second and third daughters-in-law were all sensible, one was spicy and the other had a clear brain, and they would not be like the eldest daughter-in-law, their ears were too soft, and they were diligent and good at work, but they couldn't support things.

Daddy Chang

Since the Chang family started to do business in the third room, Chang Dad said such things from time to time, at first everyone didn't think there was anything, after all, they didn't hear about the brother wall for some money, but when Chang Dad mentioned it a little too much, it made the big guy feel wrong.

Daddy Chang is not a verbose person, and if he says something important, he usually mentions it seriously so that everyone pays enough attention to it and rarely repeats it. But now I have mentioned it again and again, and I always feel that something is wrong.

At first, everyone thought that they were doing something bad, so they asked Daddy Chang to remind them again and again, but later they found that it was not, which made everyone a little confused, and always felt that Daddy Chang was a little too worried.

But even so, no one dares to ignore Daddy Chang's words, and they keep it in mind every time.

After the food stall was in charge of Cao Er's sister-in-law alone, Chang Xisheng was able to withdraw from the food stall and take on a new role - salesman.
