This is not a trivial matter, and it cannot be done with a hot brain and a slap on the thigh.

Lin Zhong put a piece of fish meat in a bowl, didn't eat it, and finally said what he thought: "I support you if you want to dry the glutinous rice factory, but have you ever thought about where we want to start?" ”

"Let's sell the glutinous rice dumplings in our hands first, and when we sell out, we have more than two silver in our hands, so that there is room for turnover in the factory, if there is no silver, then everything is a bamboo basket for water."

Lin Zhong nodded, agreeing with her idea, and several people rested after eating.

After waiting for a few days, when Shen Qingqing had just gotten up, he heard a commotion outside, and when he opened the door, he saw that Lin Zhong didn't know when he had already gotten up, and he was making chairs and stools from those woods, all of which were small and exquisite, and it didn't seem to have taken much effort: "Why did you get up so early?" ”

Seeing that Shen Qingqing was up, the forest hurriedly put down the work in his hand and smiled: "I think that these woods are piled up, and they are useless, it is better to make some furniture from them, maybe they can be sold for money." ”

Not to mention that this forest is indeed very hardworking, there is not a single day of being idle in Shen Qingqing's house for so many days, and the few words are still diligent, and getting along with their family can be regarded as a good match.

Shen Qingqing smiled, and when she was just about to go into the kitchen to cook, the little bean dice didn't know when she was already up, dragging the corner of Shen Qingqing's clothes, as if she wanted to say some little secret: "Mother, I'll tell you a secret secret." ”

"What's the secret?" Shen Qingqing thought it was funny, and squatted down to look at Xiao Douding's eyes.

The little bean Ding glanced at the forest in the courtyard, and whispered: "Uncle Lin Zhong asked me last night, what style of furniture do you like, Uncle Lin Zhong is probably making furniture to please you." ”

Shen Qingqing can see this little thing even if he is stupid, but he is embarrassed to say something.

Shen Qingqing had no choice but to pat Xiao Douding's head: "You are still young, you don't understand anything, and you will grow up in the future......"

"No, no, no." Xiao Douding hurriedly shook his head and interrupted Shen Qingqing's words. "Hao Hao is not small anymore, a poem that Hao Hao just learned in the school, do you want to hear something?"

Shen Qingqing stood up and listened to Xiao Douding's speech while washing rice.

The little bean Ding circled around Shen Qingqing, and then said with the appearance of an adult: "If the relationship between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight, I think Uncle Lin Zhong thinks of you like this." ”

"If the love between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight?" Shen Qingqing's movements in his hand stopped, and from the kitchen window, he could just see the figure of Lin Zhong working.

The injuries on his body have almost healed these days, and he has a beard in his thirties, and he is even stronger and stronger, but if you look closely at his facial features, he is so noble.

Shen Qingqing didn't know how to answer, and the little bean continued to speak: "Mother, I look at Uncle Lin Zhong really well, if you marry him, you will definitely not let you suffer." ”

If Shen Qingqing had wanted to before, he would have refused, but Shen Qingqing didn't know what was going on today, and when these words came out, he really thought about it seriously for a while.

And she didn't say anything, just hid all these things in her heart.

When breakfast was ready, the furniture in the forest was already being made, and after breakfast, he said: "Qingqing, since you said last night that you were going to build a glutinous rice processing factory, then our yard is definitely not enough." ”

"Yes." Shen Qingqing wiped her mouth, she already had an idea in her heart. "I'm going to the village chief's house today to see if I can set aside a piece of land for me, and if we have land, everything we can do to build a glutinous rice factory is much easier."

"I'll go with you."

Shen Qingqing did not refuse, and the two of them cleaned up and went to the village chief's house.

The village chief had just finished breakfast, and there was not much to do in the village, and the old man in his fifties was sitting on the chaise longue very leisurely, and the sun was shining on his face through the leaves, mottled with the shade of the trees, which was a very wonderful picture.

The village chief's mother-in-law saw Shen Qingqing coming, and teased a little: "Are you still sleeping?" Qingqing is here, you don't ask her what happened here? ”

The village chief reacted and said vaguely: "Why did you two come here today?" Or is there something else that doesn't work? ”

Shen Qingqing was a little embarrassed when she said this, she sat down and took a sip of water: "Village chief, I have been doing glutinous rice dumplings business, you should, the supply of glutinous rice dumplings is too large in recent days, and Yulian and I are too busy to work, so I want to build a glutinous rice factory in the village, but there is no land, village chief, can you grant me a piece of land?" ”

The village chief can be regarded as knowledgeable, Shen Qingqing just said it, and he immediately figured it out: "This is a good thing, if you have a glutinous rice factory, the people in the village also have a way to make money, although you can't make a fortune, you can still subsidize your family." ”

The village chief hurriedly took out a field from the house, flipped through it, and then said: "The glutinous rice factory you built needs an excellent piece of land, otherwise this piece of land will be given to you, this is the common property in the village, you can pay ten taels of silver." ”

That piece of land Shen Qingqing knows, the environment is beautiful by the mountains and rivers, and it is not too noisy, and ten taels of silver is considered to be less, it seems that the village chief is very supportive of her doing this.

Shen Qingqing was very happy, took out ten taels of silver from his purse and signed the note, and the land fell into Shen Qingqing's hands.

After coming out of the village chief's house, Shen Qingqing looked at the note and smiled from ear to ear: "I didn't expect this village chief to be so easy to talk to, and this land was bought so quickly." ”

Lin Zhong spoke next to him: "The village chief is also for the good of the villagers, and he knows that it is beneficial for the village for you to do this kind of thing, so he will allocate it to you so quickly." But now that I have land, I'm willing to go to the town tomorrow and find some bricklayers to come and build houses. ”

This matter should be done sooner rather than later, it is really not right for Shen Qingqing to do this thing as a woman, and it is right for Lin Zhong to do it.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and the matter was immediately decided.

The people in the village also got the news, I don't know when they heard that Shen Qingqing was going to build a glutinous rice factory in the village, and since the moment she went home, the threshold was about to be broken.

"Qingqing, I also heard the village chief say that you want to do big things, and my family is poor and wants to find a way to make money, I don't know if you think I'm stupid and willing to accept it?"

Before Shen Qingqing could take a sip of tea, three or five mothers-in-law came over and hurriedly spoke.

"That's right, Qingqing also helped you make those cowhide boots before, you should know the speed of my craft, it doesn't matter how much silver you give, the main thing is that we can earn some money to subsidize the family."

Before the woman finished speaking, she saw some young adults in their thirties and forties coming to the courtyard, and those young adults were usually very strong, but at this time, they were as well-behaved as little white rabbits, and even their tone was much softer: "Qingqing, where are you at home?" Aren't you going to build this glutinous rice factory? I also have some bricklayers in hand, wondering if I can come and help you. ”

"Qingqing, I've been working as a bricklayer in the town for more than ten years, and I want to come over and help you." An old man next to him immediately spoke.

Now it's about to enter summer, it's the off-season for bricklayers, and this old man doesn't know how long he has been resting at home, and he has long been poor and can't open the pot.

Shen Qingqing can be regarded as the end of their urgent need.

Shen Qingqing saw that so many people came in the house at once, and he couldn't explain it clearly, so he said: "Fellow villagers, you should be quiet first, can you listen to me say a word?" ”

That Shen Qingqing is now equivalent to their god of fortune, and as soon as she opened her mouth, the villager immediately closed his mouth.

Shen Qingqing looked at the more than ten people standing in the room and swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "My glutinous rice factory is about to start immediately, and there are still a lot of workers in it." Although I have already gone to the town to find a bricklayer in this forest, if the old men in the village can also work as a bricklayer, of course I will give priority to the people from the village. ”

With Shen Qingqing's words, the villagers all laughed.

"I think it's better to do it anyway." Shen Qingqing poured them a cup of tea, and his tone was steady and quite bold. "If a woman wants to work in me, she will go to Yulian to register in a while, this is a long-term job, I will give you silver taels every month, and if there is work in the family, as long as you ask me for leave, I will approve it."

"This is fine." An aunt next to her immediately spoke. "I have also helped Qingqing before, Qingqing's work is simple, which mother-in-law you say can't cook."

With the words of the aunt, the women next to them all nodded.

And Shen Qingqing looked at the old men behind him again: "If you want to help me build a glutinous rice factory, you can also go to Yulian to register, I will also pay you as much as others pay you, what do you think?" ”

"Of course it's good."

Since Shen Qingqing has already said it, how dare anyone disagree, for a while, Yulian just took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and many people went to register.

Looking at it this way, Shen Qingqing really looks like a small landlord.
