"What did your mother say, did she know about this?"

"After I told her, she only said that I had misheard, and my grandmother never mentioned it to her later, so she didn't believe it." Fennel felt uncomfortable when she thought of this, obviously she had been wronged, but she didn't even have a person who felt sorry for her.

"Ten taels of silver, you can't make so much money making gloves."

"I know." Fennel hurriedly said, "I just want grandma to know that I can also make money, and I can make more in the future, so that she doesn't keep thinking about selling me for money." ”

"I can promise you." Sun Chen thought for a while and said, "But I have one condition, you can come to my house to make gloves, and you can't take them home." If grandma asks you what you're doing here, you don't reveal anything, including your mother. ”

"Also, in fact, I don't have the ability to hire you for a long time, and I only have about a month to make gloves, so if you want to earn the capital that allows you to have freedom, it's far from enough."

"I'll think of something else in the future." Fennel replied, "I have a lot of handiwork from the merchant Yang, and I can still have some income during this time." The owner of the cloth shop in the town said that when my needlework became more refined, he would be willing to introduce me to Caiyi Pavilion as an apprentice. ”

"How much time a day can I come to work at my house?" Sun Chen asked her.

"There's so much to do in the morning, I don't have much time to spare, and every afternoon after dinner I'm going to cut the pigweed, and I'm going to fill this basket, as long as I can go back and help cook before I cook dinner." She pointed to the basket behind her. "After dinner, grandma asked me to take the soles of my shoes, and I didn't have the time to come~"

Sun Chen took a look, good guy, it's bigger than the one on his back, it seems that grandma is really bullying people.

Fennel also felt that time was a little too tight, and she might not be able to do much work every day before she had to go back, but this was the longest period of time she could spare it.

Sun Chen's brows furrowed, and he didn't say anything.

"I cut the pigweed very quickly, and it won't take an hour to go back and forth~" As if afraid that Sun Chen would dislike not using her, Fennel hurriedly explained.

"I came up with an idea that would save you the time of walking back and forth to mow the pigweed, but it would cost you a few copper plates, depending on whether you want to or not." Sun Chen discussed with her, "There are a lot of half-grown children in our village who are idle and have nothing to do, and if they are given two pennies for a basket of pigweed, there will be many people who are willing to cut it." ”

"Don't worry, collecting pigweed is in my name, and I can help you with the money first, and in this time saved, even if you only make a pair of gloves, you can still have a copper plate to make money." How, would you like to? ”

"Is this really possible?" Fennel asked him, didn't he learn to make money, Sun Chen taught himself how to spend money here, but he felt that what he said was very reasonable, what was the matter? Growing up, she hadn't spent money to hire anyone even once, although she didn't have much copper at her disposal.

After thinking about it for a while, she still nodded and agreed to Sun Chen's proposal, "I listen to Brother Ah Chen, hire someone to cut the pigweed, and leave time to make gloves." I also enjoy the life of waiting for someone else to cut the pigweed and send it to me~"

"Hehe~" Everyone was amused. That's right, except for the swallows, who hasn't been dominated by others all day long? It's all the kind of people who don't have a wage to get paid. Paying someone else to do the work for them, they really haven't done it.

After a few people agreed on the details of this matter, the pigweed was also cut, and they went home together.

On the road, many people were surprised to see Sun Chen walking with the oil bottle brought by Wang, and they all pretended to greet him and walked in front of them, wanting to hear a sentence or two of the conversation between them, so that they could go back and show off as talking points.

"Ah Chen, did you take your sister to cut pigweed?"

"Well, you're all playing here?"

"How can it?"

"Ah Chen, your sister is really capable, she will cut such a big basket of pigweed every day!"

"Ah Chen, how is your grandma doing? I haven't seen her in a long time~"

"I don't know, people are like this when they get older."

Seeing that Sun Chen looked like he didn't eat oil and salt, everyone also lost their enthusiasm for continuing to gossip, and after they dispersed stupidly, they went home to cook.

Sun Chen didn't have time to pay attention to them, he had to hurry home to check on his newly purchased trolley!

The sweet potato stove is too inconvenient to move, Sun Chen can't move it alone when there is no fire, if the sweet potato is roasted, the stove is constantly burning, and it can't be moved. It's great to be able to fit it on a trolley. The general trolley is too high, and it is very difficult to take and place the sweet potato after putting the sweet potato stove, which is not suitable for him to use at all, and in the end he can only ask Uncle Tie Zhu to go to the carpenter's house in the village to customize.

When they went home, the carpenter Lin Kun happened to park the car at the door, and when he saw the door locked, he thought he would have to wait for a while, but he didn't expect to turn his head and see Sun Chen.

"Ah Chen, I delivered the car, come and see, is there anything else that needs to be improved?"

"Brother Kun came here so early, have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No, I've just arrived!"

Lin Kun is a tall and thin man about thirty years old, although he looks honest, but if you look closely, you can also find that there is a flash of light under his eyes from time to time. Maybe it's because he needs to deal with numbers, he always has to calculate when he encounters things, and he will never do anything that is not good for him.

For example, helping the former Sun Chen brothers and sisters.

However, this does not detract from the fact that he is a qualified carpenter.

Sun Chen opened the door of the house, pushed the car into the yard, and then turned around and closed the door, and then carefully checked all the details of the car.

The car will often be bumped into a few places, and there are no wooden thorns or unsmooth places, and the customs clearance is passed. He lifted the handlebar with both hands and tried to push it forward, the length of the handlebar was just right, and the wooden wheels under it rotated smoothly, and there was no skew, passing the test. Waiting for a few people to carry the stove up to the car and try it, fortunately, it was not too strenuous to push, and it was completely passed.

Only then did he take out the final payment of 300 Wen and handed it over, "The car is doing very well, thank you so much, Brother Kun." ”

"You're welcome, since there's nothing to move, I'll go back first, and if there's anything inappropriate in the future, go to my house to find me." Lin Kun put away the copper plate and promised politely.

"Well, I know Brother Kun." Sun Chen nodded, if there is anything inappropriate, of course I will go to you, this car cost me a full six hundred copper plates!

After sending Lin Kun away, Sun Chen picked it up, I don't know what the situation will be tomorrow, I will bring fifty catties of sweet potatoes over first, charcoal, ten catties is enough.

Suddenly, he thought of a very, very important question - how to set the price?

The yield of sweet potatoes is high, and it is easy to store, and it is still hungry at critical times, so there are not a few sweet potatoes planted in this area, and sweet potatoes are everywhere.

Scarcity is expensive, and of course the reverse applies to this sentence. There are so many sweet potatoes, the value is naturally low, and when it is the most expensive, it is only sold for two pennies a catty, and sometimes no one buys it for a penny or a catty.

The price of roasted sweet potatoes naturally cannot be high. Thinking that a pound of sweet potatoes could only be left with seven or eight taels left in the end, Sun Chen calculated, a pound of three pennies, and a few points to earn.

Assault learned how to recognize the dots on the pole scale, and made sure that he could identify a few catties and taels at the first time, so Sun Chen put the scale away and went to sleep.

Tomorrow you need to wake up early, and of course you need to rest early.
