182 A bowl of egg soup
When I went to the stove room to greet her, I asked my little daughter-in-law to quickly find Lizheng back. After all, there were still men sitting, and the women couldn't greet them.
Aunt Wang smiled and patted her daughter-in-law's hand, "That's good, our family doesn't know how to thank you, so I bought this food to express my gratitude." This child's family is ignorant, and in our hearts, even if someone finds it back, we are not happy. ”
Auntie, this is the most empathetic, after all, there is only one grandson in her family, but it is just such a little incense.
The women, as they spoke, began to speak.
Shen Changzhi and Ning Nanxing have been standing in the yard, watching the children in Miaojiazhai feeding the horses, and the two of them talk casually. The village of Miaojiazhai is extremely small, and at a glance, it is estimated that there are about 20 households. They all fell at the foot of the mountain, and outside, a large area, was full of fertile fields.
The nearby villages are also surrounded by fertile fields.
Everywhere, they are all small villages.
"Our land should be over there, right?" The location of the land bought by Shen Tuantuan is excellent, and it is close to this side of the canal. Irrigation is extremely convenient later.
Ning Nanxing nodded in response, although he didn't know very well, but he still knew the road he had walked. His nearly 500 acres of land are all in this area. Ning Nanxing didn't know anything about the land, he only knew that it was always wrong to buy land with a few thousand taels of silver.
As for the quality of the land, although Ning Nanxing inquired with others, he only said that it was medium and fertile land, and it was worth it to buy nearly 500 mu of land with such a discount.
After Ning Nanxing bought the land, he put the title deed in the box in the house, but he didn't think that the 500 acres of land were worth anything. After all, compared to the capital, this place is really the same as picking it up. But since he called Miaojiazhai, looking at the whole village of Miaojiazhai, because of the busy affairs of the place, Ning Nanxing's heart was quite uncomfortable.
"What are you going to do with your land? Rent it out, or find a race? ”
Shen Changzhi and Ning Nanxing glanced at each other and saw the same message in each other's eyes. "Since it's close to Miaojiazhai, I think I'll rent it to Miaojiazhai. It's just that we have about 80 acres of land together, and it is estimated that it is not enough for Miaojiazhai. ”
Shen Changzhi knew that Miaojiazhai was like this, renting the land of large families every year, and a family, to say the least, would have to be more than ten acres, otherwise after paying taxes, it would not be enough for his own family.
In this way, eighty acres of land is four or five at most. It's really not enough.
Ning Nanxing hardened his head and wondered if he wanted to tell Ning Nanxing that the eighty acres of land his family bought had been fenced off by him......
At the beginning, Ning Nanxing just thought that there was money to be made in this land, and even if he was a hand, he could make a lot of silver. Therefore, the requirements for land production are not high, as long as they are about the same. Therefore, after estimating the Shen family's money, he deliberately left a piece of eighty acres of land for the Shen family. And the land he bought was to tightly surround the eighty acres of land, ensuring that no one else's land would appear within a radius of several miles.
Now that he thinks about it, he is still too cautious.
No, if Shen Changzhi was suspicious, Ning Nanxing felt a little headache.
Shen Changzhi looked at Ning Nanxing, who had a tangled face, "If you are not willing to rent it to Miaojiazhai, let's discuss it again." ”
"That's not it. Who is rented to is not a seed, I see that Miaojiazhai is a good one, and it is responsible at a glance. Otherwise, if it is replaced by one in our village, do you think the one in our village will personally send people back? Ning Nanxing could see it clearly, but he said it in front of Shen Changzhi.
"And what's the matter with you?" Shen Changzhi really didn't understand what Ning Nanxing had to wrinkle his face. "If you think there's less land, I'll give you a little?"
This time, Shen Changzhi was grateful to Ning Nanxing. If it weren't for Ning Nanxing hearing on the road that someone was going to Ruoyin Temple to ask for an explanation, and deliberately turned back to Ruoyin Temple, I'm afraid the consequences would not be imaginable. People's hearts are long, Ning Nanxing can treat Shen Tuantuan as hard as his own sister, of course Shen Changzhi will not care about so many acres of land. They are all young and want to buy land, and there will be more opportunities in the future!
Ning Nanxing refused directly without thinking about it, joke, such a favor, how could Ning Nanxing give up just for a few acres of land?
This is not in line with Ning Nanxing's style.
Ning Nanxing said calmly: "It's not because of this, I just feel that I did something stupid." ”
Shen Changzhi shook his head with a smile, indicating that he didn't want to believe it. "What else can you do stupid things? I don't believe it. ”
"The 500 acres of land I bought seems to be in this area. It's just that just thinking about renting out an acre of land gives me a headache. "Ning Nanxing supported his forehead. He had a headache just thinking about these things, and there was no one around him, and his grandfather had a headache when he saw the abacus, and he probably would rather starve to death than touch these mundane things.
Except for Old Man Ning, Ning Nanxing only has the secret guard given by his uncle, and it is estimated that it is not the material for this piece.
Shen Changzhi smiled very indecently, and gloated: "Hey, so, this rich man is still not easy to do, tsk, the troubles of the rich." ”
Ning Nanxing glanced at Shen Changzhi and said, "I think it's time for me to need a little daughter-in-law to help manage the silver." ”
Shen Changzhi was happy, and praised with his hand, "This idea of yours is excellent, I will tell Grandpa Ning that your family is going to add people!" However, this is not easy to find who is literate and can settle accounts. You're going to have to look for a matchmaker. Shen Changzhi didn't think about his own Tuan Tuan at all.
The reason is very simple, because although Ning Nanxing didn't say it, it could also be seen that the identity of the Ning family was not simple, and it was 500 acres of land as soon as he made a move, which is not common in large families in Jiangxia City, so even if the Ning family fell and hid in Taohuazhuang to take root, it would definitely be impossible to marry a small village girl. It's not that Shen Changzhi doesn't think his own Tuantuan is bad, but this obvious identity gap, Shen Changzhi won't think about it here, because he has never thought of climbing high branches, and he has always regarded Ning Nanxing as his own brother, and Shen Tuantuan is still young.
Ning Nanxing glared at Shen Changzhi, "Don't be happy, do you think that if I am kissed, you can still run away?" I heard that Tuan Tuan thought about finding a daughter-in-law for you two years ago? ”
When Shen Changzhi heard this, he was instantly stunned. "Don't stab each other, okay? I do have a suggestion, I looked like the tooth man was clever at the beginning, and you can ask him to introduce you to an accounting room. ”
Ning Nanxing originally had this intention, but it was useless to be an account room, and there was to be someone to help run errands. After all, if 500 acres of land is rented out and not planted well, he will lose a lot. Thinking like this, Ning Nanxing felt that his head hurt again.
Miaojiazhai was hurriedly looked back, and saw that so many people came to Taohuazhuang. Originally, he estimated that the two of them would go through the motions, but he didn't expect that this was a big family of people.
Li Zheng hurriedly invited Old Man Ning to take a seat, but even Shen Changzhi and the two of them were beckoned to sit. One bowl of egg soup per person.
"There's nothing to say hello to, so I can only ask you to have some soup and water." Rizheng said a little crampedly.
When I went out today, Li Zheng went to the yamen with Li Zheng from several nearby villages to look for people, but because of the accident in the county government, the gate of the yamen was locked, and they couldn't ask for directions, so they had to come back first.
In a few nearby villages, when they heard that it was the Shen family of Taohuazhuang, they were afraid that they had heard of it. The main thing is that the dried tofu in this peach blossom village is too famous.
Although in Jiangxia City, the Liu family in Liuye Village now also sells dried tofu, but because the Liu family's stall is huge, in addition to the daily supply to the restaurant, there are many to be taken out for retail sale, but the Liu family has limited manpower, so the business of dried tofu is mediocre. Now that this freshness has long passed, few people will buy the dried tofu of the Liu family, because the dried tofu of the Liu family is either burnt or the fragrance is too light, just like tofu.
The Liu family felt sorry for their own tofu, even if they knew that the tofu was not dry, but they didn't want to waste it, so they sold it all together. The Liu family is also there
Whose family's money is not blown by the wind, so after a few times, the Liu family's dried tofu business is mediocre, and sometimes it is better to sell more tofu.
At this time, He Chunlou made a move.
He Chunlou had already signed a contract with the Shen family, and dried tofu was exclusively supplied to He Chunlou. So, if you want to eat a few bites of authentic dried tofu, you can either go to He Chunlou or buy it from He Chunlou. As for the price, it is naturally much higher than that of the Liu family. However, there are still many people who are willing to buy it.
After all, the dried tofu of the Shen family is fragrant and authentic.
Therefore, it is no wonder that even if the shopkeeper of He Chunlou Qin sent a shop, he did not feel distressed at all. Just by reselling dried tofu, the shopkeeper Qin made a lot of money. And there is a dish in He Chunlou that is not outside, which has become a signboard. made a restaurant that was originally not outstanding in Jiangxia City become a signboard.
So much so that a few years ago, the shopkeeper Qin personally came to pay New Year's greetings to the Shen family, and also brought a whole cart of New Year's goods, so small that the snacks were taken into account, that is, Shen Tuantuan also got ten taels of silver for the New Year's money.
Therefore, without the Shen family knowing, the Shen family became famous in Jiangxia City because of this dried tofu.
It's just that because He Chunlou is blocking outside, no one comes to the Shen family.
When Old Man Ning was on the road, he had already listened to Shen Tuantuan and Ning Nanxing tell me everything about the situation in Miaojiazhai, but seeing with his own eyes, Old Man Ning's mood was still not calm.
Although Miao Lizheng was anxious, he didn't forget to greet people. As for the bowl of egg soup, it was only what the guests had in front of them, even Miao Lizheng did not have it, and there was only a bowl of water in front of him.
The Shen family also knew that this was the Miao family's hospitality, and it was not easy to refuse.
