Chapter 58: The Secret of the Golden Silkworm (I)
Although Ling Xiu'er didn't know what his intentions were, she still did it.
The old monk took out a cardboard box from his arms, opened it, and found that there were some silkworm seeds inside.
Ling Xiu'er didn't understand what he meant, and the old monk said unfathomably: "Silkworms are social animals, and they are good to raise together." ”
A word woke up the person in the dream, Ling Xiu'er looked at the old monk's eyes and suddenly understood something, held the box containing silkworms and made a blessing to him, and hurriedly walked home.
Since Sun learned that Ling Xiu'er wanted to raise silkworms, he gave her a house with a back to the sun to make a silkworm room.
There are a lot of tools in the silkworm room, but only one silkworm has silkworms on it, and except for the golden silkworm from Granny Zhang, the rest of the silkworms are meat silkworms nourished by Ling Xiu'er with essence and blood for the golden silkworms to eat. Not only does it take effort, but there is only one golden silkworm cocoon.
Ling Xiu'er put the silkworm seeds given by the old monk on a silkworm dustpan, put the golden silkworm on it, and sprinkled some mulberry leaves, looking forward to what effect it would have.
Silkworms have high requirements for humidity and temperature, and Ling Xiuer has lived in the silkworm house these days and took care of them carefully.
Recently, Ling Xiuer was pleasantly surprised to find that the golden silkworm turned from black to white, and there was no longer the phenomenon of cannibalism.
What surprised Ling Xiuer even more was that gold dots also appeared on the bodies of other ordinary white silkworms, which showed that she had successfully raised golden silkworms.
This was great news, and she immediately told Su Shi the good news.
The Su family was naturally overjoyed, not only for Ling Xiu'er's perseverance, but also for his own cloth village to take this opportunity to make a big profit.
Su Shi asked someone to take out a dozen silver tickets and stuff them to Ling Xiu'er on the spot, "Good sister, it's been hard during this time." ”
Seeing the silver ticket in her hand, Ling Xiu'er naturally knew what Su meant, "Sister Su, when the silk comes out in a few days, I will give it to you first, but this money, will it be a little too much?" ”
Hearing that Ling Xiu'er gave her silk, Su Shi smiled with flowers, and Cui Qiao'er on her head also danced, "Not much, not much, sister, you can take it, the business opportunities on the golden silkworm are great." ”
Su Shi was going to be happy, the last time she came into contact with the golden silkworm was three years ago, at that time, the golden silk was only sold as a high-grade silk, and there were many people. Because the golden silkworm is difficult to raise, and the silk yield is not high, many silkworm farmers give up after raising it, so that it is difficult to find even a golden silkworm on the market now.
Now that Ling Xiuer has successfully cultivated the golden silkworm, she is the first one on the market, and the golden silk is no longer just a high-grade silk, but the best in the silk. In this way, will not the silver bills flow into their pockets?
Su Shi smiled with a smile, he was in a good mood all day, and took Ling Xiu'er to the backyard for tea.
The front desk guy Ah Wen said to the gentleman in charge of the cashier: "Mr. Chen, the boss lady is going to make a lot of money, and she can't give us a few dividends when the time comes?" ”
Chen Chenggui was settling accounts, his eyes left the account book when he heard this, his head didn't understand, he looked at Awen and said: "Work hard, if something goes wrong, don't talk about dividends, your salary will be deducted." ”
Ah Wen was poured aside by him with a basin of cold water, chewed his tongue with the new elementary school apprentice, and scolded Chen Chenggui for his old antiques.
Chen Chenggui heard it as if he didn't hear it, he counted the accounts for a while and left the counter. Others thought he was going to the toilet, but in fact, Chen Chenggui went out of the cloth village and walked into a rather hidden small winery.
The small winery didn't have much business, and when the shopkeeper saw Chen Chenggui coming, he said, "It's inside." ”
Chen Chenggui seemed to have become accustomed to it, and he didn't buy wine, so he walked straight to the backyard of the small wine shop.
The backyard of the winery is surprisingly large, Chen Chenggui opened the cellar, walked in with a familiar car, and then walked inside, the dark and damp cellar suddenly opened up, the lights were bright, and all kinds of furniture were available.
Chen Chenggui saluted and said, "Miss, Ling Xiu'er has cultivated the golden silkworm." ”
The woman in front of her turned around, it was not someone else, it was the proprietress of Xiangyun Pavilion - Wu Zhen'er.
said that he was in prison, but Wu Zhen'er gave Huang Xianling a few money, and it was easy to get the matter done. She's angry at who reported her, and if she catches her, she will definitely teach her a good lesson!
Chen Chenggui was the old housekeeper by Wu Zhen'er's side in the past. Wu Zhen'er followed the family's orders to open a shop here and sell the golden silkworm, all for the family's plan. And on the first day Chen Chenggui came here, he was placed by Wu Zhener as an eyeliner by Su's side.
"I know, you go back and continue to monitor, and tell me immediately if there is any trouble."
"Yes."
Chen Chenggui left the small winery, and when he left, he didn't forget to bring a pot of wine. The Buzhuang guy saw him come in with a wine gourd, and laughed: "Mr. Chen didn't settle the account and started drinking again?" ”
"What do you know, Mr. Chen drank wine, and he only understood when he settled the account."
The guys in the store teased Chen Chenggui one by one, but Chen Chenggui didn't refute, returned to the counter and put the wine gourd aside, and continued to settle the account.
A few days later, in Zhaojiazhuang, Wu Zhener knocked on the door of Granny Zhang's house.
Li Zhao didn't know what kind of wind he had been smoking recently, and he came to Granny Zhang every day to ask about silkworm raising. Granny Zhang thought it was her again, and opened the door with a slumped body.
Seeing Wu Zhen'er's face, Granny Zhang's originally amiable face suddenly turned cold, as if the hot day in July and August in summer was suddenly frozen.
"What are you here to do? Have you taken enough money from the grave, and come to me again? Granny Zhang's tone was cold, as if she was an old acquaintance with Wu Zhen'er, she was about to close the door in disgust, but Wu Zhen'er rushed in.
Wu Zhen'er smiled flatteringly, only to hear her say: "Sister, why do you have to draw such a line with me. When we first raised golden silkworms, weren't we still golden partners? ”
"Phew, that's a shame for the rest of my life." Granny Zhang took a sip unwillingly.
Wu Zhen'er didn't care, she took her arm and continued: "I think you treated me very well at the beginning, so you will help me again this time, okay?" ”
", I don't want to see you again."
Granny Zhang was impatient with Wu Zhen'er and pointed to the door to let her go.
When Wu Zhen'er saw the pretend, her face changed instantly, "Wu Meizhu, don't toast or eat and drink!" ”
Hearing her call out her real name, Granny Zhang was even more fearless, anyway, she was alone now and had nothing, glared at Wu Zhen'er and turned around and walked to the back room.
Wu Zhen'er saw that her own sister was ignoring her, and her temper came up, and she threatened: "I know that you gave Ling Xiu'er the golden silkworm, so do you know that she has successfully raised the golden silkworm now?" If I report this news to the family, you will be fine, but Ling Xiu'er...... Do you think she will become the second Wu Meizhu? ”
