This night, Taoyuan Village is destined to be uncalm, and every household is talking about digging the river, and the Chang family is no exception.

"Xiao Wu, you are at Lizheng's house today, did you hear any news?" Chang Laosan asked, and everyone's eyes were on Chang Xile.

Chang Xile told everyone what he said today, "Li Zhutou said that this matter is not under the control of the county, and I plan to go to the county in two days to see if I can find out some news." ”

Li Zhutou definitely didn't tell the whole truth, and some news was not easy to tell through his mouth. Chang Xile wanted to go to the county for a trip, so he happened to stop by to inquire about the news.

Chang Xiwang was excited when he heard this, "Dad, I went to the county seat with Xile that day, if this thing is reliable, I want to dig the river." Our family's life is not much now, if we can really get 300 wen a month, we don't have to live so tightly. ”

The boss Chang Xixing also said: "If only I could really make money, this work can't be done in a few years, right?" If you have 300 yuan a month, you can get more than three hangings a year, and you can also save rations. As long as we come back to help when the farm is busy, we usually go to dig the river, and the debt we owe will be settled in a few years. ”

Chang Laosan shook his head, "You think this money is so easy to earn, and that work is much more tiring than the work in the field." ”

The days of Chang's three-room life were pretty good before, although Chang Xile spent a lot of money on studying, but before Chang Xile's accident, no one in their family had served as a servant in these years, and they all used money to serve on their behalf. Chang Laosan went there when he was young and knew the suffering inside, so as long as he had the conditions, he didn't want his children to suffer this, and the family's money was not completely put on Chang Xile alone.

Chang Xiwang disagreed, "I don't have any strength, I'm tired, I'm tired, and I don't have to go alone." I don't have many children at home, and I don't have so many things to do, so let me go. ”

Ding San's sister-in-law didn't express any opinion when she heard this, she just lowered her head and hugged the child, and she couldn't see any expression.

Chang Xixing said: "Dad, let's go." The third brother is a daughter, and I am afraid that I will not be able to come back for a while, and I will delay having a child. Huaizi is also grown up now, and she can also help with things, and she doesn't need my cāo heart. ”

Chang Xiwang was not happy to hear this, and the two brothers were vying to dig the river.

Chang Xisheng, who had not spoken, said at this time: "If you really want to make money, we can go together, didn't you say that you can sign up by yourself." Our family work is usually fine, as long as we come back when we sow and harvest. ”

Cao's second sister-in-law was also very interested: "I don't know if a woman can go?" My strength is greater than that of many men, so you don't need to give me 300 wen, as long as you give me 200 wen for cooking. ”

Everyone expressed their opinions, and they all wanted to earn the 300 yuan.

"But what if you don't pay for it? Who are we looking for? Ding San's sister-in-law, who had never spoken, spoke quietly, and everyone instantly quieted down.

The ancestors of Taoyuan Village have all experienced war, and they were all forced by local officials to flee to this ravine and live in isolation. Many years have passed, but the distrust of the government has been passed down to the present. Besides, he was indeed cheated by black-hearted officials in the past, so he was always skeptical of the government's decision. Although they also believe in Chang Xile's speculation, as long as the money does not arrive, they feel hanging.

Chang Xile didn't speak, looking at everyone's expressions, and combined with the observations of the past few days, he can be sure that no matter what the personal character of this family is, the commonality is that they are very diligent. Chang Xile has always believed that God rewards hard work, as long as you find the right direction, you can live a prosperous life.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, he spoke: "Even if we send money, our family doesn't have to earn this hard-earned money." You may need to work alone for a while at first, and after a while, you may need to pay someone to replace you. ”

Cao's second sister-in-law was unhappy, "Fifth uncle, don't you know what the situation in our family is now, if you don't pay for it, isn't it stupid?" ”

Second sister-in-law Cao's voice was loud and a little sharp, as if she was going to quarrel when she said this.

Chang Xisheng glared at her, "How can you talk to the fifth brother, fifth brother, don't be angry, your second sister-in-law is so angry, she doesn't have an opinion about you." ”

Cao's second sister-in-law also hurriedly said: "Fifth uncle, don't be careful, I just want to earn more money for the family." ”

Chang Xile didn't care, and said with a smile: "I know everyone's thoughts, and I don't just think that this work is hard so I don't let you go, but I think of another way, if you can make money in the same way, you don't have to worry about not paying money." ”

"What's the method?"

Everyone present asked.

Chang Xile said: "Originally, I planned to go to the county to inquire clearly before I said it, but since I mentioned it today, I will talk to you." It would definitely take a lot of people to dig the river, and it was not far from our village, so it would take a long time to do it. When it was close to our village, we would eat and sell food there. The small business is inconspicuous, but it is still very profitable. You may not have thought of this at first, but we are not afraid of not making money first. ”

After Chang Xile said this, everyone shook their heads, and even the grandma, who was the most popular in Chang Xile, said: "Xile, your idea is good, but this thing is difficult to do." Didn't the paperwork say that there was a person in charge of food, and who would want to spend money to eat? Even if it's bran wild vegetables, everyone is happy to eat them without money. ”

Cao's second sister-in-law also said: "Isn't it, if the matter of taking care of the rice is fake, it is impossible for the salary to be paid, and no one wants to buy it." ”

Although everyone thinks that Chang Xile is a smart person and often blindly obedient, they also think that he is not familiar with economic matters.

"Daddy, brother and sister-in-law, don't worry, listen to me first. What we sell is not for the people who work, but for the little stewards. They are richer than the people, and they are more willing to spend money, and their mouths are more tricky than ordinary people's, and they are not as particular as those officials and masters.

The big pot of rice is always not delicious, they have to supervise the work there, and they can't leave to go to the county to open meat, and their mouths must be very greedy, so we have a chance. And we are not to fill our stomachs, but to feed the worms, digging rivers is so tiring, ordinary people will also have a willingness to pay as a treat for themselves, let alone afraid of no guests. ”

As soon as these words fell, everyone's eyes lit up, and Grandma Sun patted her thigh, "Maybe it can really be done, those young people who don't have mother-in-law and no children can't save money the most, and they are the most greedy." ”

Chang Xixing was not so optimistic, "But what should we do to eat?" If you are willing to spend money, can you take a fancy to what we make? ”

Others also echoed, and Chang Xile smiled: "Big brother, don't worry, I already have a bit of a score in my heart." The sisters-in-law are all good at the stove, as long as there are recipes and ingredients, they can make a large table of delicacies. I know some recipes outside, and when the time comes, I will definitely be able to make them by experimenting with my sister-in-law a few times. In two days, I will go to the county to buy ingredients, and we will study them together. ”

When everyone heard this, they chose to blindly trust Chang Xile, thinking that although he had never done the work on the stove, he had been outside for a long time and knew a lot of things, so he would definitely be able to come up with a good way.

Cao's second sister-in-law said proudly: "What Uncle said is that my craftsmanship is the worst among my daughters-in-law, but the food I make is no worse than those stalls in the county." ”

Chang Xisheng still shook his head, "It takes capital to do business, and our family doesn't have a penny now." ”

This is to the point, Chang Xile was most worried about the lack of capital, he didn't plan to start business so early, but now the opportunity is in front of him, if you don't seize it quickly, it will be a pity.

However, the business is big and small, and his requirements are low at the beginning, as long as he can have a little income, it is not too difficult to do.

"This is indeed a big problem, so at the beginning of our family, I am afraid that we still have to work alone, but whether we want to have a few more people, just wait for a month to see how much I can make from this small business, and whether to make a decision on whether to pay for it."

Didn't I get this month's rice, and after two days I went to the county town to get it and sell it, and I could also have a few hundred dollars, although it was not much, but it could save the expenses at the beginning. The food I plan to cook is all grown in our family's fields, so it shouldn't cost much. At the beginning, we were just a little trouble, after all, we don't have the capital, and it's not clear what the situation is, so we are not afraid of losing money. ”

Chang Xile said so cautiously, instead of rhetoric, which convinced everyone more.

If other families suddenly say that they want to do business, it may not be so smooth, and it feels a bit fantastical, after all, the current situation in this world is a typical dragon and phoenix, and what parents do, children will follow what they want to do or not, and it is difficult to jump out of the inherent class. But Chang Laosan had been on the road before, so he didn't feel that there was anything wrong.

Although Chang Xile is a special store in this family, the person who really makes the decision is Chang Laosan, and everyone looks at Chang Laosan.

Chang Laosan groaned, and only after a long time did he speak: "Since the fifth child said it, let's try it, if it can really be done, it will be a way out." I still have two hangs of money, which are left over from the fifth child's medical treatment, and I originally wanted to save it to pay off the debt, but now the fifth child has this idea, so I will use it first. It is not easy to dig the river, it is enough for one person in our family, start with the old family, go for three months alone, and everyone can rest in turn. If you really give 200 yuan to your wife, take the rest by yourself. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, in the past, the output of the family was deposited in the public middle school and managed by the grandmother, and the small family had no private money. As long as there is no separation, it is basically this model.

Chang Xixing was a little panicked, thinking that his father felt that they had an opinion on the family's favoritism towards Chang Xile, so he did it on purpose, and hurriedly said: "Dad, I don't want this money, and we haven't separated from each other, how can we still have private property." ”

Chang Xiwang also said: "Yes, Dad, what do you want to do?" When outsiders heard this, they thought that our family was in conflict. ”

Chang Laosan didn't want to explain, so he said with a straight face: "Let you take it, you will take it, you will be in a panic?" ”

Chang Xiwang said: "Of course I think the money is good, but it's ......."

"Shut up if you know that you have money, you can't spend this money for me, and it will be given to your daughter-in-law when the time comes, and you kid will cock his tail if he has a little money."

Chang Xiwang felt that he had lost face by being counted down in person, and hurriedly defended: "Dad, how can I be that kind of person......

Chang Laosan didn't bother to pay attention to him, "This matter is so decided, if the fifth child can make money there, he will keep a share." He is a showman, and he definitely can't do these jobs himself, but the idea is his, and he should take a copy, and no one will mutter when the time comes. ”

At this time, everyone understood what Chang Laosan's intention was in making this decision, which was all for Chang Xile's sake, and he didn't want to hurt the hearts of the other brothers, so he was trying to balance as much as possible. After all, although Chang Xile has rice every month, and it brings a lot of benefits to the family, he doesn't care about the work at home, and the cost of reading and writing is large. In the past, everyone didn't care about the scientific expedition, but now it is not necessarily, so they have their own private money to do their own things, so they don't have to mumble to others.
