Chapter 172: Hands-on Ability
New Year's goods and the like are actually easy to procure, nothing more than some tobacco, alcohol and beverages; The living conditions are still basically in the past, so at this time, when you go to the city and the town, you can basically buy these goods back. Of course, it's not just these that you buy back, but there are still some New Year's goods that you need to do yourself.
Pickled meat, ham and other things are ready, in fact, Lin Shan can also do this, but when she first entered Layue, Wang Fang told Lin Shan that she would prepare these pickles, so Lin Shan didn't need to be busy with these. In fact, Lin Shan doesn't particularly like pickled meat, pickled fish, etc., and it's almost good to be able to try it a little bit.
Deep-fried dumplings and wrapping some dumplings in advance are all very necessary; Moreover, gold ingots, valuables and the like also need to be bought, and these ancestral worship items are also very necessary. Of course, Lin Shan's preparations for the ceremonial flowers are more extravagant, they are more than a hundred large ceremonial flowers, the New Year is lively, of course, because the artillery on Chinese New Year's Eve is louder, but also represents the next year is more prosperous.
"Grandma, you're going to call me for the dumplings at night." Little Apple is now driving her electric car around, although some dirt roads can't be driven, but either Lin Shan helps carry it, or Little Apple slowly pushes, anyway, she is stuck to her car, so she won't get out of the car.
"It's good, I'll call you when you fry the balls, and let your big watermelon uncle drive over." Wang Fang smiled and gently pulled the front of Little Apple's car over; The kitchen is full of fumes, and this little girl is a little greedy now, and she doesn't seem to feel that the environment in the kitchen is not very good.
"Mom and Dad were talking about you again last night. Other people's ceremonial flowers are dozens of rings, but you have a hundred rings for your special ones. Say you're spending money again. Ike sat on the bed, looked at Lin Shan who was lazily lying on the bed, and said funny; The ceremonial flowers that Lin Shan bought this time can basically be said to be the largest in the village. This time, I bought more than 1,000 yuan of flowers, which does seem to be a bit extravagant.
"It's okay, it's a fun New Year, you also saw it when you checked the accounts two days ago, the family now has a little savings, and it's good to have a lively New Year." Lin Shan laughed, anyway, it's not that fireworks and firecrackers are still banned in the city, and the sound of firecrackers in the countryside during the New Year can be said to be quite lively.
Put a gift flower at the New Year's dinner, and put a big gift flower when the sky is out after twelve o'clock on Chinese New Year's Eve. On the morning of the first day of the new year, after getting up, put a big gift flower; These three ceremonial flowers are the most important and must be prepared. Lin Shan bought six large gift flowers directly this time, and he wanted to use them at home, and he also bought them on the side of the Yi Ke family.
"Well, you just spend money, earn a little and spend a little. My mom is teaching me, teaching me how to run a house, teaching me how to manage accounts. Yi Ke said with a smile on Lin Shan's back.
"You take care of the accounts, just give me some pocket money. In fact, there should not be a lot of money for our family next year. The business here in the restaurant is very good, and once the crayfish farming is successful, it is a lot of money. I was flipping through the news some time ago, and I saw reports in some places that the crayfish market is very hot now, and some large lobster shops have millions of profits in a quarter. The quality of lobsters, yellow eels and the like on my side is also good. Don't worry about not making money. Lin Shan smiled and gently touched Ike's hair, he needed money to contract the mountains and forests, but when it came to it, the money was enough to spend. Lin Shan doesn't take money very seriously now.
"That is, my dad just saw these news and planned to dig out the family foundation and follow you to partner up in farming. I heard Sister Guo'er say that she wants to build a food city at that time. You're just going to start doing it this year, right? "Ike is still very optimistic about his current development, from the initial planting of watermelons to reservoir farming. Now I am also planting a few acres of vegetables, and I am also engaged in paddy field breeding, and the development is naturally more and more comprehensive, and the most important thing is that we can make money.
"Well, she mentioned it to me, and my idea is that if the variety of products in hand is enough, there is indeed a market. At that time, there will be restaurants, and snacks such as crayfish will also have a market, so there will naturally not be too much pressure at that time. Moreover, our restaurants and vegetable stores are becoming more and more famous, and some of the restaurants next to us also want to introduce them, so I am still hesitating. Lin Shanle said happily, with good products in his hands, naturally there is no need to worry too much.
"We're going to keep ourselves and expand slowly, so there's no need for other people to make money. If you have a lot of money in your hand, you can go to the provincial capital to develop, and the market in our city is basically saturated. Ike also knows a lot about her own restaurants and farms, so she has some points in mind for her future development.
"Well, I know this, I also said this when I discussed it with Sister Guo'er, next year I will go to the provincial capital to open a branch and strive to open up the situation, now we just want to be steady, anyway, now we can make some money, there is no need to take risks." I don't plan to be a listed company or anything like that, I just make enough money for us to spend and make us live well. Lin Shan was lying lazily on the bed, he was really not a qualified businessman, at least he didn't seem to use the resources in his hands to quickly expand his strength; Lin Shan is a small person, as long as he can live well.
"Uncle Watermelon, the sun is drying your butt, you can't sleep lazy!" Lin Shan and Ike were very happy, lying on the bed enjoying the sweetness of the present; But the incomprehensible little apple watched her little electric car push open the door, and the little girl's crisp shout also rang out, and Lin Shan and Yi Ke only looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
"Uncle didn't sleep lazy, he was in a daze. Little Apple, tomorrow is the New Year, you are a year older, and the five-year-old child will go to school. Lin Shan sat up with a smile and teased the little apple, "Count to your uncle, you don't seem to know how to write your name now, uncle will teach you to write." ”
"Humph!" Little Apple snorted, jumped out of the electric car, turned around with the car, and sat directly in the car to start the car and escaped. She doesn't want to count, she doesn't want to write, and now it's the most interesting thing to play; Uncle Watermelon is a big bad guy, and he thinks about counting words every day!
"You've learned to scare her now." Seeing the little light bulb leave, Ike slapped Lin Shan funny; The little apple seems to don't want to go to kindergarten to study, so he wants to turn off this little light bulb, as long as it comes to reading and writing, the little girl must run away immediately, for this trick Lin Shan can be said to be familiar with it, and it has repeatedly worked.
"This little girl must be a little fool in the future, other people's children want to go to kindergarten to play with other children, and she wants to run as soon as she hears that she wants to go to school." Lin Shan said funny.
"Not necessarily, many children don't like to go to school nowadays, and when I was younger, I always cried when I first went to preschool. I am afraid of teachers, and I am managed by others, where can I be at home. Ike laughed, reading is really a torture for many children, and Ike used to hate school, but her self-control is better, and she also knows that reading is her way out, so she will work harder.
The little apple is playing right near the doorstep, and there's nothing to worry about at all; The little girl is not small now, and there is basically no need to stay aside to take care of toys. So Lin Shan and Yi Ke are also talking in the room, as for worrying about the impact at this time, they are going to get married soon, this is really not an immoral thing.
Lin Shan and Yi Ke are enjoying their sweetness, this is about to be the New Year, now is the time to enjoy the family reunion, and it is also a rare and leisurely moment to be able to put aside the pressure of work and thoroughly enjoy this rare leisurely moment.
After lunch, Lin Shan and Yi Ke also planned to help with something, such as making dumplings and the like; This is the supper to eat on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, which must be prepared in advance. Because on Chinese New Year's Eve, there are activities after eating Chinese New Year's Eve, and now do these things well in advance, when the time comes, you can play mahjong and the like wholeheartedly.
"I'm going to make a beautiful little dumpling, and I'll eat the dumplings myself!" Little Apple also washed her hands and farts and ran to the small table, she just joined in the fun, took a dumpling skin, as for the messy dumplings that were not formed at all, no one cared, the children just had fun by themselves.
"Pack a few more, uncle likes you so much, you have a few more dumplings, and my uncle will eat them when the time comes." Lin Shan laughed, the little girl is rarely quiet now, so let her continue to make dumplings here; As for waste and the like, the little girl's movements are very slow, and Lin Shan helps the little girl deal with it from time to time, and the dumplings can basically be cooked.
"Then I'll pack four more, Uncle Watermelon and beautiful sister eat it, and grandpa and grandma also eat it." Little Apple stood at the small table with her little head down, and it seemed that she still had a lot of things to do, not just one person eating dumplings, Uncle Watermelon also had to eat.
"Glutinous rice is cooking in my pot, don't run around in the afternoon, Lin Shan will light the fire for me, I still have kneading and fried balls here, and I can't be busy alone." Ike watched from the sidelines, you won't know this, you're going to get married soon, you have to learn all this. While Wang Fang skillfully wrapped the dumplings, he also said to Lin Shan and Yi Ke; Today's young people are indeed very average in their hands-on ability, Lin Shan and Yi Ke are about to get married, and they don't expect them to know everything, but they still have to be able to do some necessary things.
