It took half a month of busy work to put away the dealers in the field.

Early in the morning of October 18, Li took the concocted herbs and the loaches and snails sold in the shop to load the truck, and returned to the city with his things and people.

This time, only Zhao Yu, Zhao Chunhua, and Zhao Dongxue were left with the Li family.

None of the daughters-in-law in the family came, and according to Li's arrangement, it was not too late to wait for the shop to open in two days.

And Zhao Xia was too young, and there were many things at home, so Yuan took the initiative to ask and didn't go to the shop recently, so he left Zhao Xia to be with Zhao Mingteng.

Zhao Dongmei was deliberately left behind by the Liu family because of her age, and the Liu family plans to take advantage of this winter to practice Zhao Dongmei's skills, at least not to delay the beginning of spring to see others.

That's right, half a month after returning home, Zhao Dongmei's family affairs are about to be decided.

This is simply a thunderclap on the ground, I don't know what others want to do, but this incident made Zhao Yu dizzy.

Zhao Yuxin said, how old is Zhao Dongmei, full of calculations, after the New Year, she is only twelve years old, at this age, she is about to get married?

"It's not that you want to look at each other, you have to go to the courtesy and make up your mind after reading each other, and you will be busy surviving for at least two years, at that time, the eldest girl is fourteen, and fourteen is also a big girl, but you can't go out," Yuan didn't explain, but it was okay for him to explain, and Zhao Yu made him uncomfortable.

Zhao Yuyao thinks about her age, so will it be her turn to see each other in two years?

is also because of the incident, Zhao Yu has not slowed down in the past two days, and when he saw Li leaving, he followed directly without saying anything, that is, he didn't want to stay at home at all.

Yuan's angry teeth itched, and he couldn't control Zhao Yu, so he could only let Zhao Yu go.

…………

The ox cart staggered back to the shop, but it didn't come back for half a month, and the shop was covered with a thin layer of ash inside and out.

Li had no choice but to ask Zhao Shanlin to call Zhao Yinyan over, and together with the two guys who had been on her long vacation, it took a short half of an hour to simply clean up the shop inside and out.

After cleaning up and vacating the space, Li unloaded the contents of the ox cart again.

The herbs have been sent to the pharmacy, and the remaining buckets of loaches and snails have also been arranged in the backyard.

"Let's set a trip every two days for the time being, and wait for tomorrow to sell and see, if the sale is good, you will take the time to send a few more trips,"

Li patted Zhao Shanlin on the shoulder and explained the follow-up matters related to the loach and the snail.

Although these two kinds of food, they eat well at home, but they have never sold them, and the Li family does not dare to make more guarantees.

Zhao Shanlin nodded after listening, "Mother, I know." ”

"Well, it's nothing, you go back first, let Liu bring more greens when he comes, the price of greens has been expensive recently," Li frowned, she had just run to the shop and found that the prices of meat and vegetables in the city had risen a little recently.

Although meat and vegetables were also ordered, Li still wanted to save money, and the price of the snack shop was not easy to mention, so he had to make up for it elsewhere.

Zhao Shanlin drove the ox cart away.

Li returned to the shop and continued to work inside.

There is no way, the shop can't stay open.

In the end, it was not until dark that everyone cleaned up the two living rooms, the shop hall, and the kitchen.

It's just a simple clean-up, and the braised bone broth hasn't had time to boil yet.

No, Li directly said that he was busy all day tomorrow, and when the shop was all done, he would open the store the day after tomorrow.

Let the two guys go back first, the Li family left Zhao Yinyan, and when they had dinner in the evening, they told Zhao Yinyan to let her pay more attention to the surroundings, see that there is a suitable one, and then pick up two women who are responsible for coming over to work.

Li Shi said, "Now is not as good as before, the weather is getting colder, although the work in the field is done at home, but there is a lot of other work, Liu and the others can't run every day, after all, children and men are thrown in the countryside, and it is not possible." ”

After listening to this, Zhao Yinyan suggested to her mother, "Then just recruit a few more, two is too little," carefully calculate the work in the shop, "Mother, in winter, what kind of charter does our shop have?" ”

Is it to change to a new food or to maintain the original food business?

After all, it's getting colder, and the hot food must be appealing.

Li clapped his hands, "We must sell new food, some like lo-mei, and it should be stopped slowly." ”

Otherwise, who likes to eat it if it's frozen.

"You don't have to worry about this, with me, I definitely won't care," Li waved his hand, and talked about recruiting people, "If you are a person, two is not enough, then recruit three, it doesn't matter how old you are, but people have to be honest and do their duty," After all, they are in the food business, if they meet dishonest people and steal their family's craft, they will lose money."

"Cheng," Zhao Yinyan nodded, "Mother, I'll pay attention to this side, and if I find a suitable one, I'll pull it over for you to see." ”

has lived in the city for many years, and knows a lot of neighbors, Zhao Yinyan wants to hire someone, it is still very easy.

"Monthly money?"

"According to 700 wen a month, after all, I am busy from beginning to end, and I can't rest,"

This money is not low now, and it is understandable that it is not as good as that of young men.

Zhao Yinyan nodded, indicating that she would definitely complete the task on her side.

After arranging, let Zhao Dongxue and Zhao Chunhua look at the shop, and the Li family led Zhao Yu out again.

The grandfather and grandson went to the blacksmith shop.

Zhao Yu didn't mean roast chicken, roast duck, roast rabbit, and now he has to go to the blacksmith shop to customize the oven.

The oven is a job, without Zhao Yu, and the Li family must not be able to describe it properly.

When the two of them arrived at the blacksmith shop, the blacksmith shop was half-closed, and all kinds of filth were piled up around the door, and it looked a little miserable.

Li frowned and reached out to knock on the door.

Unexpectedly, the door of the shop was opened by a little girl.

Li Shi was stunned, then you ask if the blacksmith is not at home.

The little girl sniffed, nodded, and took the person directly to the backyard.

The backyard of the blacksmith shop was the same as theirs, not big, and it was surrounded by all kinds of iron products, which looked dilapidated.

In the middle of the room was hung straw mats, and the windows inside were sealed, so it seemed that people were resting in the main room.

Li wanted to ask about the situation, but looked at the child who led the way in front of him, opened his mouth, and didn't ask in the end.

What can you ask?

This kid doesn't look as old as Zhao Xia, and he can't speak well, if he can ask something, it will be amazing.

In this way, the two followed the little girl into the house one after the other.

Inside, there was a coughing sound.

"Ahem, cough, cough - cough"

In the center of the kang, there was a person lying on his side, who was the blacksmith himself.

The man hunched over and coughed from time to time.

Seeing someone coming in, the strong man lying down remembered, Li Shi saw this, and hurriedly waved his hand, but did not let people get up, "Lie down, don't be busy, we came here, we just want to customize things,"

Saying that, Li Shi said uncertainly, "Do you still take jobs in your shop?" ”

This person is not in good health, and she can't get up even when she sees it, can she do this job?

Although Li didn't ask directly, this is what she is expressing now.

"Yes, cough-cough-cough" The strong man covered his mouth and said in a low voice, "What do you want to customize?" ”

"A round tin box, that is, the kind with a shell on the outside, a small one on the inside, and a small door in the middle, open the firewood......"

Zhao Yu hurriedly said what the oven she wanted looked like, and as she spoke, she gestured and tried her best to make the other party understand.

After hearing this, the strong man breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "You are this, it's not difficult, but you have to pay a deposit first,"

Saying that, the strong man smiled bitterly, "You can also see, my body, if you want to be good, you have to spend money to grab medicine," otherwise, when he slowly recovers.

"Cheng, as long as you can do it," Li directly agreed.

She also understands that in the whole city, there is only this one blacksmith shop, and they don't customize it here, unless they go to the next county, not to mention the trouble, the key to the other party's craftsmanship is not as good as this person.

"In that case, what you want, the foundation will cost at least four silver coins, and a deposit of five hundred yuan, if it is not enough, I will tell you after I finish it," the strong man estimated the price and told Li directly.

It happened that Li brought money over, and after listening to it, he took out two silver coins from his arms, put them next to the strong man, only said a word of secrecy, and left.

Later, the little girl chased after her and told the two to come and pick it up in seven days, so that the matter was done.
