Chapter 56: The Dock Business
After stopping business for two days, it began to return to normal again, there were three sick numbers in the house, and the nursery rhyme asked Aunt He to help watch, she gave her something every day, which was also a reward.
Aunt He did not shirk.
"Virgin."
Hearing this voice, Chen Xuan's brows immediately twisted, how could it be this Xiao Gongzi again.
The nursery rhyme was much calmer, and she looked inside the carriage.
"Xiao Gongzi."
Xiao Xing glanced at the man who drove the horse, and he walked outside, "I was going to go to you, since we met, let's go together." ”
As he spoke, he also invited Tong Yu and Chen Xuan to get into the carriage.
Nursery rhyme looked at Chen Xuan.
This small action was seen by Xiao Xing, and he looked at Chen Xuan with a smile.
"Does this boy look like a big bad wolf?"
Chen Xuan glanced at him lightly, if he refused, it seemed that he was afraid of this second ancestor, he stretched out his hand and helped the nursery rhyme into the carriage, and he followed.
Xiao Xing looked at the two people sitting opposite him with a smile.
"Because I went to Fucheng a few days ago, I only found out about what happened to your family today, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to contribute at that time."
This is said sincerely, even Chen Xuan, who is not used to him, has nothing to refute.
The nursery rhyme smiled lightly, "It's our own business, and I'm bothering you to remember, Xiao Gongzi, a friend, we have made a deal." ”
Xiao Xing saw that the faces of the two people relaxed, and said happily.
"We weren't friends before the relationship, right?" This is a bit owed.
Nursery rhymes are not angry.
"Before, it was a partner."
Xiao Xing pursed his lips and smiled again, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at the two people again, and then said with interest.
"What do you think of our Dancing Watertown?"
There was some confusion in the nursery rhyme's eyes, she glanced at Chen Xuan, and finally looked at Xiao Xing uncertainly.
"Xiao Gongzi might as well say it directly."
Xiao Xing shook his head, looking helpless.
"I originally wanted to hear the boy lady's evaluation of our town, but I never thought that the boy lady would be so boring."
She didn't believe that Xiao Xing would do such a boring thing, this seemingly somewhat unscrupulous son, but he had the shrewdness of a businessman in his bones.
"Seeing that the little boy has been running here for a long time, there must be something desirable in coming to our Water Dance Town."
Xiao Xing laughed out loud, looking a little uninhibited.
"The young lady is listening, and I came to you today to talk to you about business."
The corners of the nursery rhyme's mouth hooked, and the eyes sank a little, giving people the feeling that they were still smiling.
"Aren't we already in the incense business?"
"According to the ability of the young lady, I think this fragrant business is our first cooperation."
Xiao Xing said very firmly.
Nursery rhyme was faintly worried in her heart, she was a little skeptical, whether she was still doing too much, as ordinary people like them, the more things they have, it is not a good thing.
Feeling that her right hand was being held, the nursery rhyme turned her head sideways to look at Chen Xuan, and suddenly there was a bit of a haze of psychology, and she relaxed inexplicably, she still had her husband.
Her mind raced to Xiao Xing.
"Xiao Gongzi, we are just ordinary people, where is your saying so powerful."
On the one hand, nursery rhymes don't want to be completely tied to the Xiao family so early, and now she is weak, and premature attachment will put them in a weak position.
Xiao Xing had already thought of such a nursery rhyme, after all, he had been rejected before, many times.
He said persistently.
"Don't be presumptuous, young lady, I believe in my own vision."
The nursery rhyme smiled faintly and did not speak.
Xiao Xing's eyes flashed slightly, and he glanced at Chen Xuan on the side.
"Lady Tong, just like you just said, if you can't cooperate, are we also friends in the sea? As your friend, I have a message here that I believe you will be very interested in. ”
Who said that there is only one way to succeed, and if it can't go straight, then take the route of saving the country with a curve.
Tong Yao stared at Xiao Xing several times, and he didn't look like he was joking.
"Oh?"
"We're going to have to fix the dock soon."
Xiao Xing said lightly.
The nursery rhyme and Chen Xuan's eyes were both surprised, and they looked at Xiao Xing at the same time.
Seeing such a tacit understanding between the two of them, although Xiao Xing had given up, he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
"Young Master Xiao, is this wharf repair hosted by the Yamen?"
Xiao Xing laughed and groaned.
"Well, my father is the president of the Chamber of Commerce in Yu County, and the news he got should not be wrong."
I believe in this nursery rhyme, and I began to think about it in my heart.
"Is it the other side of the West River?"
"Well, our family bought all the land over there."
Xiao Xing was a little underwhelmed when he said this, and he really had a toothache when he saw the nursery rhyme, which is rich and related.
"I don't know if you plan to start building the dock when it's repaired, or if it's ahead of schedule?"
Nursery rhyme's eyes rolled, she really wanted to seize an opportunity, and then she could make a lot of money after the dock was built.
Xiao Xing unfolded his somewhat handsome fan again, and looked at the nursery rhyme with a smile.
"This matter has not yet been decided, but if the young lady wants the land over there, as long as it is not too much, I can also sell it to you here."
Such a big one is cheap, the nursery rhyme is really a little exciting, glanced at Chen Xuan a few times, swallowed his saliva, and then turned his head to look at Xiao Xing.
"Anything to do?"
In fact, she has a number in her heart, and Xiao Xing took the initiative to send it to the door, that is, because she took a fancy to her value.
Xiao Xing was surprised, he thought that the nursery rhyme would agree directly, but now that he was asked by the nursery rhyme, he thought about it.
"Well, it's okay when the house hasn't been built yet."
That's quite merciful.
The nursery rhyme thought about it and nodded.
"Thank you, I still need to go home and discuss this matter with my father-in-law."
It's best to go there tomorrow and see how it's going.
Xiao Xing had no denying it, and began to shift the topic to the soybean again, and the words in his words were whether it was possible to come out with some new products.
The nursery rhyme said no without blinking his eyes, and Xiao Xing, the little fox, naturally didn't believe it, but aroused his fighting spirit.
By the way, I went to the nursery rhyme, and they had a meal here, and then went back to town.
That night, the nursery rhyme was discussed with Chen Xuan, this land still has to be bought, she thinks more, their waterway is very developed, if it is really built, there will definitely be a lot of merchant ships coming and going, they also plan to make a workshop here, and when the time comes, they can also put the items of the workshop on the dock, it is always good to have their own place.
Chen Xuan supported her unconditionally.
The business of braised meat is still very good, and the daily income is also very considerable, but thinking about the money they will spend next, Tong Yu feels that he still needs to open source, just when Tong Yu was nervous, the dock started work, Tong Yu and Chen Xuan went around again, and immediately Tong Yu had an idea.
"Second Aunt He!"
Nursery rhyme stood at the gate of the courtyard and shouted.
"It's coming!"
Aunt He wiped her hands on the apron around her waist, and when she saw that it was a nursery rhyme, the smile on her face became gentler.
"Nursery rhyme girl, hurry up and come in and sit down."
The nursery rhyme didn't plan to go in, but when she saw the neighbor next to her poking her head out to look at them, she pursed her lips and smiled, and followed Aunt He in, and Aunt He also noticed the movement of the nursery rhyme, and closed the door very intimately.
"Is there something important to ask me for?"
Nursery rhyme nodded and said directly.
"Auntie, isn't the town building a dock? I plan to go over there to sell food, and you also know that our family is just me and Xianggong are laborers, and the income of the braised meat business is not bad, so we can't give it up, so I thought that you would help me sell food, and I would give you twenty yuan a day. ”
Second Aunt He's eyes widened, twenty wen wages, six hundred wen a month, which is a lot.
"What, nursery rhyme girl, you give too much."
When the nursery rhyme saw her like this, she knew that she was willing, and smiled.
"Not much, sister-in-law, you still need to come over in the morning to help me stir-fry together, and then go to the town to sell vegetables, and it will delay you for more than half a day."
Second Aunt He thought for a while, and felt that this was not a matter at all, didn't she still have half a day in the afternoon? It is enough for her to take care of all the things in the family, and it can also increase the income of the family, and she is willing to come to the house, she nodded hurriedly.
"Nursery rhyme girl, or hello, think of your sister-in-law first, you can rest assured, sister-in-law, I will definitely do a good job, will it start tomorrow? I'll come over early tomorrow morning. ”
Tong Yao looked at her positive energy and nodded.
"Then I'll wait for my sister-in-law."
Aunt He sent the nursery rhyme out with a smile, the smile on her face still did not fall, and two women came out next to her, looked at the back of the nursery rhyme, and hurried forward when Aunt He was about to close the door.
"Eh, Second Aunt He, look at the smile on your face, but what's the good thing?"
Aunt He saw the temptation in the eyes of the two women, and said with a haha.
"It's nothing."
With that, he closed the door.
The two women outside the door glanced at each other and felt that there was something here, but Aunt He didn't say it, and they didn't want to stalk them.
On the first day of the nursery rhyme, I made four dishes, stir-fried cabbage, sour and hot shredded potatoes, pickled pepper chicken offal, scrambled eggs with leeks, and then there was sour radish duck soup.
Second Aunt He looked at the dishes in front of her and swallowed her saliva.
"Four dishes and one soup are only ten cents?"
Nursery rhyme smiled.
"Auntie, ten cents is the limit of what people over there can accept."
Aunt He thought about it, but she was still afraid that the nursery rhymes would suffer a loss, after all, if they suffered a loss, she would have no salary.
The nursery rhyme saw Aunt He's worry and smiled.
"Auntie, don't worry, I have all the numbers, and I won't lose money."
