Chapter 43: Fire the Squid
"That's right! Brother Liu is right! We've got so many benefits for nothing, and if you don't know what's wrong, count me as one when you break your leg! ”
"Count me in!"
After Uncle Liu's words fell, there was a burst of angry shouts here, and everyone responded to Uncle Liu's proposal one after another, and said that they were happy to do this with Uncle Liu.
After a little more deliberation here, the village dispersed.
However, tonight, many people in Qingque Village were so excited that they couldn't sleep.
As long as you think about the ridiculously high price of salt, and then think about the beautiful prospects that Cheng Ge'er said, everyone can't help but feel hot in their hearts, and they just hope that the sky will dawn early and start doing these things as soon as possible.
Qingque Village, shrouded in night, has a surge of vitality compared to before, and this vitality can be called hope.
A beam of bright moonlight fell on Han Cheng's face lying on the bed through the hole in the roof.
The face illuminated by the moonlight has a faint smile.
Of course, he was happy, how to deal with the relationship between the salt mine and these people in Murakami, he had thought about it for a long time, and was even ready to meet the chicken feathers.
As a result, when things really started to be implemented, it was surprisingly smooth, better than the best situation that Han Cheng had envisioned.
This, of course, made him very happy.
Early the next morning, the people of Qingque Village were busy, some of them went to the fields to tend to the crops as usual, but the others took the hooks and fish cages and went to the small river to catch fish.
Last night, the price had been set for five catties of fresh fish.
Originally, Han Cheng said that it was three catties and one money, but the people in the village didn't agree with anything, and the big guys all said that this fish hook and fish cage were taught by Brother Cheng, and there were not as many fish as the tribe in your village.
Using the methods you taught to make your money, thinking about it makes people feel indebted, how can you still set the price of fish so high?
The buyer wants to raise the price, but the fish seller wants to lower the price, which is a rare spectacle.
After some competition, the price was finally set at the price of five catties of fresh fish for one dollar, and the people in this village were all determined to be high......
Han Chengjia didn't have any start-up capital now, so he took credit first, and waited until the first batch of salted fish produced was sold in the county town and exchanged for money, and then used the money to pay for the purchase of fresh fish and the production of salted fish.
According to the temperament of the people in the village, as well as Han Cheng's current status in the village, of course, there is no problem with this way of credit.
The fish in the river have basically never been caught except for a few with a harpoon, so the resources are very abundant, and there is no need to worry about running out of fish in a short time.
A person guards three or four fishing rods, and then goes downstream to put a few fish cages, at least more than 20 catties a day, and when you are lucky, 70 or 80 catties can be caught.
Selling it to Han Cheng at the price of five catties of fresh fish for one penny, a person can earn at least five yuan a day, which is really a very good thing for the people in the village.
Eighteen dollars a bucket of wheat, according to this price, as long as the luck for three consecutive days is not particularly bad, the money earned from catching fish for three days is not a problem to buy a bucket of wheat.
And after they have tended to the crops in the field for a year, paid all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and then removed the seeds planted in the field, how much grain can be left?
Therefore, the enthusiasm of the previous ones is very high.
"What? You're not herding cattle for my house?! ”
In the early morning, Chen Jiazhuang Chen Lao picked up his house, looked at Luo Dawa in front of him, Chen Lao said with surprise.
When Chen Lao picked up last night, he made up his mind to push down Luo Dawa's salary for herding cattle again, from the previous one and a half buckets of wheat a month to one bucket.
In his opinion, Luo Dawa's family has no land to cultivate, and accordingly there is no source of income, in such a situation, even if he reduces his salary so much at once, Luo Dawa can only accept it with resignation.
After all, if he didn't accept this bucket of wheat, Luo Dawa's family would have a more difficult time, but what he didn't expect was that before he could talk about it, Luo Dawa had already said that he would not herd cattle.
This made Chen Lao's decision to be suffocated all of a sudden.
"Well, no more cattle!"
Luo Dawa said with great certainty, turning her head to leave.
"That's a bucket and a half of wheat!"
Chen Lao picked up Luo Dawa and reminded him loudly, and deliberately bit the three words 'one and a half buckets' very hard.
In all fairness, Luo Dawa is really a good hand at herding cattle, and the cows don't dare to mess with him, and he is obedient to being beaten by him.
As far as these cattle of Chen Lao's family are concerned, generally speaking, two people are needed to release them, but Dawa can release them alone, which is equivalent to saving Chen Laoli a bucket and a half of wheat in a month.
At this time, Luo Shixin was leaving, how could Chen Laoli be willing.
"I'll add you half a bucket of wheat!"
Chen Lao gritted his teeth and covered his faintly aching chest and began to increase the price, and the matter of wanting to reduce the salary of the eldest baby has been completely stillborn.
"Don't let it go!"
Da Wa simply turned around, waved her big hand and said.
"That's two buckets for you a month!"
Chen Lao gritted his teeth vigorously, clutched his chest that was in more pain, and continued to increase the price.
After finishing speaking, he quickly added: "No more!" ”
"Don't let go! I'm rich now! ”
Luo Dawa continued to wave her hand, refused very simply, took a long step away from her thick legs, and strode away without looking back.
"I haven't seen anything like the world! With that 5,000 yuan, how long will it be enough for your family to eat after paying this kind of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes? ”
Chen Lao angrily scolded Luo Dawa who was going farther and farther, hoping that he could come back and continue to herd cattle for him.
Luo Dawa thought about the bright prospects of selling salted fish that Brother Cheng told him, hehe laughed a few times, and ignored Chen Lao, who wanted to jump to his feet, and just went towards Qingque Village.
I was so happy.
Chen Laoli wanted to step forward and hold it, but the punch that Luo Dawa gave him a few days ago was really impressive, so he could only be angry here.
"Three donkeys, go and call your brother and mule, you herd the cattle, and he herds the sheep."
In desperation, Chen Laoli could only make such a decision.
Although I knew that it was very likely that the three donkeys alone would not be able to hold this herd of cattle, I still wanted to give it a try, after all, if I hired one less person, I could dig out less food......
On that large piece of wasteland, Da Wa put a large piece of salt ore in the back basket while telling Han Cheng about Chen Lao's reaction, not to mention how happy he was.
They were going to bring the salt ore back and get salt at home.
The reason why it is so troublesome and not to boil salt directly here is because this is the wild, there is nothing to cover around, and the method of making salt is easy to leak out.
On the other hand, it is more than three miles away from the nearest river, so it is not easy to get water for salt production.
So Han Chengcheng thought about salt, put some salt ore at home, and make salt at home.
It's the early days, the stall hasn't been laid yet, and he doesn't plan to make the scale of salt and salted fish production too big, so it's still okay to do this now.
When the time is made and the salt panic has passed, it is not too late to spread the scale.
But the time was to dig a ditch to divert water from the river to this place, and at the same time to rest the road......
