"Make money with this wild fruit?" The young man was stunned, this fruit is so unpalatable, he can sell it because of this eldest sister's good eyes, where is she going to sell it? Although the young man had doubts, he didn't ask carefully when he saw Qiu Se, he didn't ask carefully, but promised: "Sister, don't worry, even if you sell this wild fruit to a cow and a catty, I will sell it to you at this price." ”

"Well, I believe you." Qiu Shi also gave a promise, "Don't worry, if I can really make money with your fruit, I will definitely increase the price for you." ”

"Really? Thank you so much, big sister. The young man grinned, his white teeth reflecting the wheat-colored skin, "Eldest sister, you are so good, there will definitely be a good reward." ”

Qiu Se couldn't help laughing, this young man's mouth was really sweet, "You just call me Sister Qiu Se, what's your name, how old are you this year?" Where to stay? ”

"My sister just calls me Gazi, I'm thirteen this year, and my family lives at the foot of Beishan Mountain in Yujia Village." I really can't see it, I thought he was ten years old at most, too thin.

"Why do you live at the foot of the mountain? Don't you have the surname Yu? None of your relatives in the village? "The autumn color is strange, the life of this young man's family is so difficult, why don't any relatives help him.

Gazi lowered his head and clutched the cloth bag tightly with both hands, "My family originally lived in the village, not long ago my grandfather died, my grandmother and the village chief said that my father was hard, it was a broom star, and we were not allowed to live in the village, they robbed my family's field and house and drove us out of the village, and my father and mother built a grass shed at the foot of the mountain." ”

"Don't you want your dad too?" Autumn asked in surprise.

"Well, my mother said that my father is not my biological son at all, and my father's mother died as soon as my father was born." Gazi said hatefully: "One day I will bring back the house and land." ”

Autumn sighed secretly, the best family and the best relatives are really everywhere, it seems that the most reliable is yourself. "Okay, they don't want you, you don't want them, and when you have money in the future, you won't give them chicken every day."

"I don't even have a place to live now! Can I be rich? Gazi looked at Autumn Color with a confused expression, hoping that she could give her an answer.

"Yes!" Qiu Se nodded, "As long as you are willing to work hard and earn every penny, one day you will be the richest person in the world, believe in yourself." ”

Gazi's misty gaze gradually cleared, and he clenched his fists, "Well, I have to believe in myself, I will definitely become a rich man." At that time, I bought all the land in Yujia Village, and asked the village chief and my grandmother to beg me to rent the land to them. ”

The two of them walked to Ding's house as they spoke, and as soon as Gazi entered the courtyard, he caused a high-pitched cry of red apricot, "Where did you come from called Huazi, who let you in?" ”

In fact, Gazi's clothes are very clean, but there are more patches, and his hair may have been shaved by climbing trees up the mountain, and he suffered a little messily, and Gazi, who was carrying the bag, stood in place embarrassed when he heard Hongxing's scolding at this time.

Qiu Shi, who had closed the door at the back, turned around from the back of the cloth bag and saw Hongxing standing in the courtyard with her hands crossed and staring at Gazi, Hongyu was sitting on the side with old clothes in her hands and looking at Gazi with a strange face, and there was a needlework basket between the two, thinking that the two were mending clothes.

Hongxing's sharp shout called everyone in the room out.

Zhao ran out in a hurry, "Red apricot? What's wrong? ”

"Who dares Hanako to come to the old lady's house to ask for food, see if I don't beat him out." Mrs. Ding rushed out with a shoe, as if she was about to slap her.

In the east chamber, Sanya also stood at the door and watched.

"I asked him to come in and deliver something." Qiu Se hurriedly spoke, don't let Mrs. Ding really hit Gazi.

Seeing that she didn't come to ask for food, Mrs. Ding calmed her anger and glanced at the autumn color, "It's a big girl, and everyone who doesn't care will take it back." ”

Qiu Se gritted her teeth and held back, now it is still the most important thing to make money, arguing with Mrs. Ding, purely to find her own anger, and she still doesn't understand.

"Hongxing hasn't gone into the house yet." Zhao called his daughter into the house and said to Qiu Se with a calm face: "Big girl, I don't care what you want, but you still have a few sisters in the family who are not married!" Don't you think about their reputation? ”

"Huh? He's only thirteen years old, and he's a kid! Third aunt, are you thinking too much? "The autumn colors were startled.

"Isn't it time to be married at the age of thirteen?" Zhao turned white and entered the house with a glance of autumn color.

"Sister Qiuse, give you the fruit first, and I'll wait for you at the door." Gazi's face turned red, and after handing a bag of wild fruits to Autumn Color, he hurriedly fled outside the gate.

Autumn color breathed a sigh of relief, but she also forgot, always look at the people here from a modern perspective, in ancient times, thirteen or fourteen years old can not be married! He poured the wild fruit on the kang in his house, and took the copper plate and the cloth bag and went out to Gazi.

"Sister Qiuse, you gave more Sanwen." Gazi looked at the eight cents in his hand and was a little overwhelmed.

Qiu Se smiled, this kid is still sincere, "Then Sanwen will be the next time." ”

"Thank you." Gazi bowed deeply towards the autumn colors.

After sending away Gazi, Qiu Cai calculated, and then he had to buy sugar, porcelain bowls, and containers for canned food, and then he had to remember the account more clearly to see how much money this canned sugar water could make.

Qiu Se went out and bought back two wooden barrels, a flat pole, ten ordinary coarse porcelain bowls and two catties of white sugar as quickly as possible.

"Eldest sister, why is the fruit you bought just now so sour?" As soon as he entered the house, Sanya, who was standing in the kitchen, muttered inarticulately, and held a wild fruit that had been bitten nearly half in his hand.

Qiu Shi was in a hurry just now, and the house was not locked, so I thought it was Sanya who went in and took the wild fruit to eat.

"Have you ever tasted it for your mother?" Qiuse put down the question in her hand, and when she saw that she was still inhaling and eating the fruit, she said, "Don't eat it, help me boil water first, and give you something delicious in a while." ”

Sanya saw that the eldest sister bought white sugar and came back, and stopped talking, concentrating on boiling water, waiting for the delicious taste that Qiu Se said. With the help of Sanya, Qiu Se brushed all the wooden barrels and bowls with boiling water twice, then went back to the house and took out five wild fruits, peeled and cored, cut them into small cubes, and put them in a pot on the side to soak them in water.

Sanya looked at Qiu Se and grabbed a handful of white sugar and threw it into the pot a little distressed, and shouted vigorously, "Put less and less of it, this thing is too expensive!" ”

"Okay, let's make a fire, boil the water in the pot twice, and then let it cool and eat." Qiuse told Sanya to work, collected the wild fruit pits and skins and threw them away, and then went back to the house to keep accounts.

After a while, Sanya opened the curtain excitedly, "Sister, this thing is really delicious, what is it?" ”

"You didn't wait for it to get cold and drink, did you? It tasted better than it was here. Qiu Se raised her eyebrows, put away the brush and the homemade account book, and followed her to the outside room, but saw half a bowl of steaming canned food on the pot table, and asked her, "Have you served it to your mother?" ”

Sanya stuck out her tongue, "I'm happy to be patronizing, so I'll give it to Niangsheng." Sanya quickly filled another bowl with her hands and feet, poured it back and forth, and then followed Qiushi into Wu's house, "Mother, you can taste this thing made by the eldest sister, it's delicious." ”

Qiu Se helped Wu slightly cushion her upper body and helped her drink two sips of canned food.

"This stuff really tastes good. Alright, I've drunk it, you drink it. Wu said to his two daughters with a loving face.

"Mother, I've made a lot of this stuff, it's enough to drink." Autumn Colors continued to feed canned food to Wu.

Wu Shi took a few more sips and pushed the bowl away, and asked Qiuse with some concern, "You didn't spend less money to make this thing, right?" Now that you have food and drink, let's do less of these things, and I don't want to eat this, so you should save some money for yourself. ”

Qiu Se smiled, "Mother, this is used to make money, it's called canned sugar water, I plan to sell it on the dock, what do you think?" ”

"Huh? Will this work? Wu Shi was surprised: "You are a girl's family, there are some big men on the dock, and besides, sugar is quite expensive, don't pay for it." ”

"If you don't pay for it, let's talk about it." Autumn made up her mind, "It doesn't matter if there are many people on the dock, isn't my dad there?" ”

Sanya was so excited that she couldn't do it, "Eldest sister, eldest sister, this is called canned sugar water!" How are you going to sell it? Can I go with you? ”

"Sanya, you have to take care of your mother at home, or I'll try it first!" Autumn color has its own calculations in mind.

A few people were talking in the house, and suddenly heard Zhang's voice outside, "Big girl, are you at home?!" ”

"I'm here." As soon as the autumn color came down from the kang, Zhang had already opened the curtain and walked in.

As soon as Zhang entered the door, he smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is really a blessing, I heard that the eldest girl bought you supplements again?" ”

"What tonic is not a tonic, not just two wild fruits. Her second aunt, you sit. Wu shrank his feet and made room for Zhang.

Qiu Se brought another bowl of canned food and handed it to Zhang, "Second aunt also come to taste the canned food I made to see if it can be sold." ”

"What? Big girl wants to sell something? Zhang was very surprised, took the can and took a sip, and smashed his mouth, "It's really delicious, the big girl is worthy of seeing the world, this thing is really delicious." ”

Hearing Zhang's say the same, Qiu Se became more confident and asked her, "Is the second aunt looking for me?" ”

Zhang sneered twice and rubbed his hands, "That, a friend of my mother's brother wants to partner with someone to go to the south to sell goods, but he doesn't have too much money in his hand, Zhang Luo borrowed money, and he didn't borrow it in vain, saying that it was for profit." Big girl, I heard that you have money in your hands, and you are idle anyway......"

Because there is a wharf in Qingshui Town, although those merchant ships from the south to the north only occasionally dock here, there are still many people who are thoughtful and make a fortune, and later there are more people begging for a living on the wharf, so some people have the idea of chartering their own ships and goods.

It's just that it is risky to sell the goods yourself, just like playing stocks in modern times, making money, getting rich overnight, losing money, and going bankrupt. In the past, there was a maid in the Chen Mansion who sold her because the family lost money on the boat, so Qiu Se understood what the Zhang family said very clearly, but she didn't want to take the risk.

Zhang's seemed to be a little unhappy when he saw the autumn color, and hurriedly emphasized: "Big girl, think about it, I and your second uncle have lent out the little private house, and your grandmother has also agreed to borrow it, and the profits given by others are really a lot, and they are about to catch up with the Yinzi money." You are a person who has seen the world, and you should know that money cannot be born in your hands. ”

Qiu Se groaned, but still rejected Zhang's, "Originally, I shouldn't have refused the kindness of the second aunt, but I don't have as much private money as the second aunt in my hand, and my mother also needs money for medicine, I'm afraid I won't be able to help the second aunt." ”
