Chapter 46: You've made a lot of money anyway, so it's worth a loss

There are 300 ducks at home, Yang Cui and the children are even busier, the duck cubs are still small, but the amount is large, Yang Cui and the three children alone can't provide such a large demand, and after a while Yang Cui is also ready to expand breeding, 300 is really less, and you have to raise pigs, everything has to be prepared in advance.

Yang Cui found Village Chief An.

Yang Cui is now backed by the stargazing tower, and the family of Village Chief An does not dare to snub Yang Cui, and they are very enthusiastic when they see Yang Cui coming.

"Xiaocui, why are you here today?"

"Uncle Village Chief, I have something I want to trouble you."

"What's not troublesome, what's that can help, you just say it."

"I want to buy some earthworms, can I let Xiao Lei Xiaojun help me dig some earthworms every day, of course, I don't let a few nephews help me in vain, a penny a pound, what do you think?"

"Seriously?" Village Chief An was taken aback.

Yang Cui nodded and said with a smile: "Uncle, do you think I look like someone who is looking for fun with you?" ”

"And how much do you want?"

"Uncle, I won't hide it from you, the amount I want now is about sixty catties a day, but I am ready to let your little army Xiaolei and my three cousins' children help, if you can, each of you will send me fifteen catties a day, and after two months, the duck will grow up, and it is estimated that this amount will not be enough, and you can send a little more when the time comes."

"Earthworms can feed ducks?" Village Chief An was shocked again.

"Yes! I've seen it in a book before, saying that earthworms can feed chickens and ducks, and chickens and ducks that grow up by eating earthworms will lay bigger eggs. ”

"Seriously!"

"That's what the book says, I've tried it in the past few days, and the duck cubs have eaten earthworms, and they can eat happily, but earthworms are best boiled in boiling water for a few minutes before feeding."

"So that's the case, then I'll try it tomorrow, it's good to read more, and I know more than us."

The original owner is the ex-wife of Tanhua today, and no one doubts Yang Cui's literacy and reading.

Village Chief An smiled, "Xiaocui, thank you for giving us such a good opportunity to make money, if there is anything in the future, squeak." ”

It is not easy to dig earthworms in the countryside, and a few children in their family are not allowed to go out into the wild in the future, so they rush to dig earthworms, more than ten miles a day. In the future, the amount will be large, and it will be a big deal, and the adults will dig it too, and it will be a lot of money in a month.

"Speaking of things, there is really one thing, I plan to send Qiuqiu to the private school in December to sign up, he was adopted by me, and I have to get a new household registration for him when I go back, and I will have to trouble your uncle when the time comes."

In this era, signing up for study is in December every year, An Jia decided to send An Xiaohu to study, Yang Cui decided to send Yuan Qiu to study, and An Xiaohu happened to have a companion, but Yuan Qiu's household registration is still in Yuanjialing Yuan's family, and if you want to study, you must have a household registration certificate.

In this era, it is much easier to apply for a new household registration than in modern times, and it is basically no problem to spend a fee on the yamen and let the village chief run a trip, and the yamen does not care whether the child is picked up and robbed.

"You're going to send that kid to school?"

Village Chief An was even more surprised this time, Yuan Qiu was just an adopted child, Yang Cui was willing to send him to study, and it costs a lot to study, as we all know.

It seems that Yang Cui has really made a fortune.

"Xiao Cui, you ...... Do you really want to send him to study? ”

Yang Cui nodded: "Well, this kid is very smart, I also know a few words, recently taught him at home, taught him once or twice and memorized, thinking about sending it to recognize a few words, even if he can't take the test in the future, he will be able to make a living when he goes out in the future." ”

When Yang Cui said this, Village Chief An knew that Yang Cui would definitely be able to find a good job for this adopted son in the future, wouldn't An Xiaohe and An Xiaojiang jump out of the farm gate and go to the city now? One month's salary is enough to support a family.

Village Chief An was envious of Yuan Qiu, a child.

Coming out of the village chief's house, Yang Cui went to the cousins' houses again to talk about the purchase of earthworms, and they were also shocked that Yang Cui used earthworms to feed ducks, but after Yang Cui said that it was useful, they also decided to do so, of course, they were also very grateful to Yang Cui for eating meat and letting them drink soup.

In the afternoon of the same day, the families sent the earthworms, and looking at the dense earthworms, they were about to commit dense phobia.

A total of sixty-two catties, Yang Cui counted the money after the scale, and immediately poured the earthworm into the big clay jar, the water in the clay jar has come, the earthworm is boiled for a few minutes, and then fed to the ducklings to eat, which is healthier and safer.

As soon as a few cousins and village chiefs left with the money, Chen Sumei's mother and son came, and they didn't see each other for a while, and they became thinner.

Seeing Yang Cui, Chen Sumei held the washed white patched clothes in her hand, as if she wanted to say something, but she was a little embarrassed to open her mouth.

"Is there anything wrong with you?" Yang Cui took the initiative to ask.

Wang Xicai saw that his mother didn't speak for a long time, so he mustered up the courage to say to Yang Cui: "Sister Yang, I'm ...... We can also dig earthworms, do you still collect them? ”

After saying the cow, Wang Xicai's stomach rang out inopportunely.

"If you don't take it, it's okay, I'...... We ......"

"Harvest, but I don't want much now, can I exchange it for food?"

Dozens or hundreds of copper plates have to be given out every day, and Yang Cui doesn't have so many copper plates, thinking about exchanging food for food, Chen Sumei's family should also be short of food.

"Yes, you can." Chen Sumei's mother and son cried with joy, "How many earthworms do you want?" ”

"I'll give them a penny and a pound of earthworms, and I can exchange them with you for the same amount of food."

"Then we want sorghum rice, is that okay?" Chen Sumei asked weakly.

Sorghum rice is the cheapest grain, a bucket of eighty yuan, counting, a pound of eight yuan, the current situation of Chen Sumei, they are not allowed to eat better.

"Yes."

Wang Dachun lost his family, and now their family is crowded in the broken temple, eating wild vegetables every day, and the children are too thin to become humans, and if they continue like this, they are afraid that they will starve to death, fortunately, Yang Cui now gives this opportunity to earn food.

Chen Sumei kept thanking her excitedly, and almost knelt down and kowtowed.

As soon as their mother and son left, many people came one after another to ask if Yang Cui still accepted earthworms, but Yang Cui refused, saying that it would be collected after a while.

The villagers can only regret leaving, but they don't accept it, and they can't force it, but there is a person who has to sell it.

In the afternoon of the next day, after Yang Cui weighed the earthworms, an old woman came.

"Xiaocui, I also have some earthworms here, you can also take them together."

Yang Cui glanced up at her and said with a smile, "Are you?" ”

"I'm your grandmother Qian, and your mother used to call me Aunt Qian! Good boy, take my earthworms here, I have weighed them at home, a total of six catties and eight taels, even if you are seven catties, anyway, you will earn a lot of money, and you should honor grandma and me if you suffer a loss. ”
