The next morning, Zhang Taiping got up early and ran around the mountain, but he didn't expect Xing Rushui to get up early and come out to move, so they ran around the mountain twice together, which made Zhang Taiping look at this woman with admiration. Thinking about it, otherwise it would be impossible to take care of and protect Fan Ming all the time so that the people in Fan Ming's family can rest assured.

After running, Zhang Taiping stood in the orchard to practice the knife, but he didn't have the next move, and he didn't show any force value, but watched Zhang Taiping pose and wave casually with interest.

Because there was a person standing next to him, Zhang Taiping did not use all his strength, so he did not practice the speed of the knife or other movements that would be related to physical fitness, but just practiced the technique of holding the knife, and then waved the knife at will to experience every detail in the process of change.

Xing Rushui didn't care at first, but now in this era, cold weapons like this have long been in decline, either pure fists and feet or hot weapons, like the plot of the back knife being swords all over the street as said on TV is impossible in reality. If you can't carry a knife with you, it's better to learn fist and foot kung fu to be more useful.

However, after watching it for a while, I saw some fame, Zhang Taiping seemed to be random and disorderly every time he swung the knife, but he deliberately made some turns so that every time he swung the knife, he would not swing to the end, but could turn back at any time, so that there would be no phenomenon of overexertion. Especially during the period, it seemed that he didn't control the strength well, that is, this time his eyes couldn't catch the trajectory of the knife blade, his eyes couldn't help shrinking, and his narrow and beautiful eyes narrowed.

At this moment, Zhang Taiping also felt his mistake, and suddenly turned his head to look at Xing Rushui, squinted his eyes, and the hairs on Xing Rushui's body immediately stood up, as if he was being targeted by a flood monster.

Even in the big winter, Zhang Taiping was shirtless when he practiced martial arts, and the sun shone on the bronzed skin with an inexplicable luster, looking at the man who was like a demon god in the sun, his heart suddenly jumped twice, and then he returned to calm.

Zhang Taiping put away the knife, put on clothes to cover the upper body that gave people infinite impact, and walked past Xing Rushui without saying or greeting. Xing Rushui smiled lightly, followed behind Zhang Taiping without asking anything and saying nothing, she is an extremely smart woman, maybe she can't be called smart but should be called wise, knowing what to ask and what not to ask.

When the two returned to the house, Fan Ming had already gotten up, and Xing Rushui and Fan Ming were ready to drive to the town to buy some daily necessities and things to decorate the room.

Before leaving, Fan Ming said, "Big man, you can go with you." ”

Zhang Taiping refused with a smile: "I won't go, there is something to do today." ”

Fan Ming had no choice but to pout and sit in the car, and the car was gone.

It's not that Zhang Taiping deliberately refused, but that there was something really going on today. A strawberry was planted in the orchard, but the chickens at home were free-range, a total of five hens and a rooster had been active in the orchard, so the strawberries under the fruit trees suffered, and the strawberry bumps that had just bloomed were pecked by six chickens before they opened, and now there is no fruit and they have begun to peck at the strawberry vine in the winter The only core that keeps it fresh and tender.

This is repaid, pecking at the seedling core, and it will still bloom and bear fruit next spring. Zhang Taiping also hopes that this strawberry will give the villagers a shock and play a role in raising their heads next spring. Now that he has been pecked, isn't that Zhang Taiping's plan to die early?

So Zhang Taiping planned to weave some fences with bamboo strips and rattan to enclose the strawberry field and prevent the six chickens from entering. But the area of the strawberry field is not small, and if Zhang Taiping wants to complete it alone, he doesn't know how to do it in the Year of the Monkey, so he has to spend money to hire people to compile it together.

"I'm going to find someone to make some fences to fence off the strawberry patch." Zhang Taiping sat next to Cai Yazhi, who was collecting the soles of her shoes, and discussed with her.

Of course, Cai Yazhi didn't understand his intentions.

"The strawberry field is enclosed to prevent chickens from going in to make trouble, isn't there a large number of chickens and ducks after the beginning of spring next year, you have to make the fence in advance, otherwise the whole strawberry will be ruined in one morning."

Cai Yazhi was a little entangled, not knowing if those red bumps on the ground were worth spending so much effort.

Zhang Taiping knew what she was thinking when he saw her expression, patted his head and said, "Blame me for not making it clear to you." You may not know the value of this strawberry, I have seen people grow strawberries and sell strawberries outside, for example, an acre of land can earn 20,000 yuan a year, of course, under the condition that it is well managed and there are no germs. ”

Cai Yazhi was surprised again, the thing on the orchard that had never been valued by her and was very similar to a wild fruit in the mountains could be so valuable, so she asked: Then can't we weave it ourselves?

In the end, Cai Yazhi is still poor and scared before, and her thinking can't change, and she wants to do everything by herself.

Zhang Taiping explained: "I roughly estimated that it would take about 200 meters of fence, and if I didn't weave it myself, it would take too much time, and some of the gains outweighed the losses." Don't worry about money, in two days I'm going to sell the pots of flowers on the windowsill in the backyard, you know it's worth a lot of money. ”

So how do you calculate wages? Cai Yazhi compromised, in essence, as long as Zhang Taiping didn't spend money indiscriminately, she wouldn't stop it more.

"I tried it, and the average person weaves 20 meters a day, and plans to give 3 yuan per meter, and they find rattan or thin bamboo or something by themselves, we just pay for the fence they weave."

Cai Yazhi calculated that it would cost a total of six hundred yuan, although it was very painful, but she still nodded and agreed.

Zhang Taiping got up and went out to find someone. He didn't want to kill this kind of thing alone, but discussed it with Cai Yazhi, after all, it was a matter of two people, not a one-man show on stage by himself, and it was better to discuss it.

After leaving the house, Zhang Taiping first walked towards Wang Peng's house, but the two of them had breakfast. Seeing Zhang Taiping come in, Wang Peng was very happy, you must know that the handsome guy never came to his house before, so he quickly got up and moved a chair for Zhang Taiping.

Aunt Wang's attitude towards Zhang Taiping is also much better, and what Zhang Taiping has done these days is obvious to everyone. What's more, Zhang Taiping didn't go out to gamble, and even Wang Peng stayed at home honestly, and helped Zhang Taiping a few days ago and got back a few hundred yuan of wages and handed them over to himself, this is the first time in heaven and earth, she cried at that time, and straight friends grew up sensible.

After Zhang Taiping sat down, Aunt Wang said, "Dashuai also have some breakfast." So saying, he went into the house and scooped up his supper.

Zhang Taiping hurriedly got up and stopped: "Auntie, don't bother, I just had dinner, but there is something wrong here." ”

When Aunt Wang heard this, she stopped and looked at Zhang Taiping suspiciously, and before she could speak, Wang Peng next to her preemptively said: "Big brother, just say it directly, as long as you can help." ”

Zhang Taiping smiled and said, "This time, I didn't come to ask you for help, but to find Aunt Wang?" ”

"Looking for me? What can I do? ”

"I'm going to find someone to help weave some fences for four yuan a meter, but I'm just paying for it, and I don't care about anything else. What do you think, auntie? ”

"Okay, okay, how many meters do you want?"

Zhang Taiping said: "I can only give you a fifty-meter task, and the rest have to find someone else, in a hurry." ”

"Fifty meters is enough, when do you want that handsome?"

Zhang Taiping was stunned for a while and said: "Well, I don't have a time to be here for you, and when it's over, you can just ask Wang Peng to pull me over." ”

"Alright, I'll finish it for you as soon as possible."

At this time, Wang Peng said: "Big brother, I can also help with weaving." ”

Zhang Taiping said: "You can help your mother weave at night." Come to me during the day, maybe I need your help with something else. ”

Wang Peng happily agreed.

After Zhang Taiping came out of Wang Peng's house, he didn't know how to find another person, or went to the old village chief's house to find three more people under the guidance of the old village chief, and each meter was based on the three yuan agreed with Cai Yazhi before, and the time limit was five days. The grace and extra dollar given to Wang Peng's family have the meaning of help.

After finishing this matter, Zhang Taiping returned home and reported to Cai Yazhi again about the people he found and the deadline for wages, and this time Cai Yazhi did not feel sorry for Zhang Taiping's salary to Aunt Wang.

Then Zhang Taiping nested in the back room and took out a carving knife and began to carve wood carving, and now there are enough carvings, there are more than 200 pieces of large and small. But Zhang Taiping is still too little, he carved these one is to practice the knife to sharpen his mood, the other is to carve for Wang Peng, at that time promised him to find him a money-making job, carved more after two days Zhang Taiping is ready to go to the city, just let Wang Peng take these to sell, fortunately before the year also make a profit.

At lunchtime, Xing Rushui and Fan Ming did not come back, and Zhang Taiping estimated that he might not have gone to the town to buy things, but went to the city.

After eating and putting it in the afternoon, Zhang Taiping didn't do anything more, but teased the two parrots who finally came back once. The two parrots now live very comfortably, with shiny fur and bright colors. Zhang Taiping suspected that they just regarded Zhang Taiping here as a temporary palace, otherwise they would only come back once in a while, but they would have been very close to Zhang Taiping as always.
