Chapter 13: Getting Rich Together
Li Xin looked at the contract drawn up by the shopkeeper Sun one by one, after all, it was the first time to look at the ancient contract, although the word is simplified, but the writing is like classical Chinese at a glance, it really doesn't look like it's ordinary difficult! Fortunately, the words are all recognized, and you can understand them when you read them slowly.
After reading the contract, she and Shopkeeper Sun signed their names and fingerprints, and the contract officially took effect. After signing the contract, the shopkeeper Sun asked people to weigh the sour bamboo shoots brought by Li Xin's sister and brother, a total of twenty-five catties, and sold them for two hundred yuan. Because Li Xin's family is full of children, and there is no ox cart, it is inconvenient to send things, so in the end, it was okay to say that early every morning, Shopkeeper Sun would let the guy go to her house to pull sour bamboo shoots.
After that, Li Xin wrote down all the recipes she knew about sour bamboo shoots. Shopkeeper Sun read the recipe, so he asked the man to take a hundred taels of silver and give it to her. There were nine of them of ten taels, and five of them were of one tael and one ingot, and the remaining five taels were copper coins. Li Xin was a little grateful for the carefulness of the shopkeeper Sun.
Carefully told the address of his home to the shopkeeper Sun, and Li Xin took Wen Hao and left Pinxiang Pavilion. Shopkeeper Sun gave a hundred taels of silver so readily, and Li Xin was still very happy. As long as you have money, your family's life can improve. In the days to come, she must eat better, these days, just the food at home makes her feel very tormented. And the house at home also needs to be repaired, so dilapidated, I don't know when it won't be able to support it!
Now that he has money, Li Xin took Wen Hao to buy things on the street. I went to the ready-to-wear store and bought two new clothes for each of the five of my family, and the previous ones were indeed too tattered. In his previous life, Li Xin had never worn clothes with patches, and he was too guilty these days.
Then I went to buy some meat and all kinds of seasonings, and when I bought meat, I also got some fat and big bones. Walking along the way, I bought delicious food, and bought a lot of snacks, preserves, and the like. By the time I met Aunt Zhang, the two siblings' back baskets were full.
Aunt Zhang's things have also been sold, and she is waiting for them, and after the meeting, she will go to meet the village chief together. The village chief had already bought everything he wanted to buy, and the group took an ox cart to rush back. Back in the village, the group went their separate ways. Before parting, Li Xin invited Aunt Zhang's family to dinner at home in the evening.
When he returned home, Wen Hao told Wenbo and them all about his experience in the town today, and several children were stunned when they heard it, and the final conclusion was that their family finally had money, and they no longer had to go hungry. Li Xin took out some of the various candied snacks he bought in the town and put them on a plate for a few children to eat. In the end, she also told the children not to tell the matter of a hundred taels of silver, their house was too tattered, and there was no anti-thief measure at all. One hundred taels of silver is a lot of money in such a village, and many families have never seen so much silver in their lives. is afraid that money will attract people's eyes, so that some people are greedy. If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves, so you can be low-key or try to be low-key!
In the evening, Aunt Zhang's family came. Uncle Zhang's family has only two children, the eldest is a son, who is eight years old this year, called Zhang Wang, and usually calls him Xiaowang. The youngest is a daughter, who is only four years old this year, her big name is Zhang Jinhua, and her nickname is Niuniu. Aunt Zhang's family is also having a hard time, and the clothes of the two children are also patched, but fortunately, Aunt Zhang is a person who loves cleanliness, so although the clothes are tattered, they are very clean. Aunt Zhang may be embarrassed to come to eat like this, and she also brought a big hen, which is very fat at first glance, and it must be a hen that lays eggs.
The people in the village are not very wealthy, so the hens are generally reluctant to kill and eat meat, and they are all raising eggs, saving eggs to buy, and they can also supplement the family. Generally, only roosters will be killed and eaten, but they are generally reluctant to kill, at most, they are willing to kill one occasionally during the New Year's holidays.
Soon, Li Xin had already prepared a meal. This dinner was very rich, with fish and meat, and Li Xin also put sour bamboo shoots on it to make a few dishes, so this meal not only looked sumptuous, but also tasted unusually appetizing. As soon as Aunt Zhang entered the door, she came to the kitchen to help, but Li Xin had already prepared the food, so she helped set the dishes and chopsticks.
"You kid! Just eat a little bit, and it's not like it's so good for the New Year's holiday. When the meal was set, Aunt Zhang said angrily. It was obviously a strange tone, but listening to it made Li Xin feel unusually warm, if it wasn't for being very familiar, where would he talk like this.
"It's rare to have a good meal in the past two years, so if you have it now, let's have a good meal. Let's eat! The food will be cold later, and I still have something to say to Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang for dinner! ”
It is rare for a few children to eat such a sumptuous meal during the New Year's holidays, but they are very happy, and Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang are also full of praise for Li Xin's craftsmanship. After eating a meal, there is laughter and laughter all the time, and the atmosphere is really warm.
After dinner, Li Xin took some snacks and candied fruit and sent a few children to play in the yard. In the house, she cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, brought sugar water up, and sat down with Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang to talk. She told Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang about selling sour bamboo shoots today, but she skipped the matter of the one hundred taels of silver. She wants to take Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang to make sour bamboo shoots together, since Pinxiangge can eat a large amount, there should be no problem with making so many zuò.
And bamboo shoots are a one-season thing, take advantage of the time to do not do more, and after that, they will all grow into bamboo shoots. The area of the bamboo forest on the mountain behind them is very large, and the bamboo shoots are good, some of them are more than ten catties! Leave some bamboo for cultivation, and the rest should still be able to make a lot of sour bamboo shoots.
In this village, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang and their family are the best, and if there is a good thing to make money, they naturally have to think about them and their couple. Hearing her talk about sour bamboo shoots, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang were also very happy, after all, it is not difficult to make sour bamboo shoots, and bamboo shoots are wild, and they don't need money, that is, the jar needs some money.
However, the jar is also a big problem, because the jars at home are only used by the family, not to mention the limited quantity, and the jars are also small, not very large. Fortunately, Uncle Zhang said that there are people who burn jars in neighboring villages, and he can go on a trip to book some big jars.
The matter was quickly discussed, and the two families decided to order the jar first, and when the jar was bought, they could pickle the bamboo shoots. When Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang left, Li Xin took two taels of silver to them, although the jar was not expensive, but it was a lot, and it also required some deposits.
