Everyone laughed for a while, and Mingyue smiled and pulled the topic back to normal, "Master, when the sweet potatoes and potatoes are sold, our family will build a new house with a brick structure in the new yard." It is best to drill two more wells, one in the main courtyard, we use water, and the other in the cross-courtyard, which can be used to water the vegetable field or in the workshop. ”

It was the first time Mingtang had heard of such a thing as a "workshop", and he asked Mingyue, "Why didn't I know that our family was going to open a workshop?" What kind of workshop to open? ”

"That's a lot, but it's all next year, and this workshop won't be able to open this year." Mingyue didn't explain in detail, she continued to talk about her beautiful idea of the new house, "We can build the house into three roads and four entrances, my grandfather and my grandmother live in the middle road first, and my uncle's house, my family, and my third uncle's family live in the second, third, and fourth entrances respectively." Later, my eldest brother and his brothers became biological sons, and the houses on the left and right roads were divided into small couples to live alone. With such a big place and so many houses, in the future, my father's great-grandchildren will all marry wives and have children, and our family will not be afraid of not having enough to live in. ”

What do the elderly like best? Of course, the heirs are prospering, and everyone is eager to live in the same house for four generations or even five generations.

Yes, Mingyue's words can be said to have scratched the itch of Old Man Ming, and Old Man Ming, who has always been calm and serious, was actually slightly red by her.

Mrs. Ming was relatively calm, she reminded Mingyue, "It's good that you want to get it, but the problem is that our family doesn't have so much money to build a house for you right now!" ”

Mingyue smiled slightly, "We can only build the courtyard of the middle road first, and we can open a vegetable garden on the left and right roads first, and I want to plant more peppers (peppers) and tomatoes (tomatoes) next year." ”

Old Man Ming was persuaded (flickered), and Mrs. Ming naturally would not continue to oppose if she had no financial concerns, so the matter was decided according to Mingyue's intentions.

The next morning, the Ming family's ox cart and the Huang family's mule cart ran back and forth twice, and the 800 catties of potatoes and 3,500 catties of sweet potatoes that the Ming family was going to sell were all transported to Jufu Restaurant.

As for Mingyue, she got into the kitchen of the restaurant when the first batch of sweet potatoes and potatoes were delivered to Jufu Restaurant. Today, she is going to show her skills and cook a big table of sweet potatoes and potatoes for the old shopkeeper of Jufu Restaurant.

Boiled sweet potatoes, baked sweet potatoes, sweet potato porridge, sweet potato cakes, braised sweet potatoes, sweet potato button meat, honey-braised sweet potatoes, shredded sweet potatoes, fried sweet potato balls, sweet potato balls, sweet potato balls, bean paste sweet potato sesame balls...

Potato cakes, mashed potatoes, french fries, three fresh, large plate of chicken, cold shredded potatoes, stir-fried shredded potatoes, vinegared shredded potatoes, dry pot potato chips, green pepper potato chips, potato braised pork, potato stewed chicken nuggets, potato stewed pork ribs, sauerkraut mashed potatoes, shredded potatoes, shredded potatoes, fried potato balls, stewed noodles with beans and potatoes...

She made all the food made with sweet potatoes and artichokes, as long as she had eaten and had an impression in her previous life.

Of course, such as boiling sweet potatoes and sweet potato porridge, such methods are very simple, and she does not collect any money.

There are also her shredded potato series, potato chip series, and stewed potato series, all of which she received separately according to the series.

Therefore, in the end, she only accepted the money for twenty recipes from Jufu Restaurant, that is, three hundred taels.

Coupled with the money from her family's sale of potatoes and sweet potatoes, Jufu Restaurant finally paid three hundred and eighty-six taels of silver to Old Man Ming.

"Grandpa Liu, you can sell that roasted sweet potato alone." Mingyue told the old shopkeeper about the big iron bucket used by street vendors to roast sweet potatoes in her previous life, and the old shopkeeper nodded again and again.

Mingyue's heart is a little relieved - Jufu Restaurant gives money too refreshingly, if she doesn't give a little heart, Mingyue can't help but start to feel weak.

As for how much money people can make with her recipes and how many new dishes they develop, Mingyue said that this is all people's ability. People also want principal, shop, manpower, and a good relationship with people from all walks of life.

Coming out of Jufu Restaurant, Mingyue followed Old Man Ming, Mingdi, and Mingcheng to He Shigui's house.

He Shigui has been very busy recently - there are too many people who are looking for him to book sweet potatoes and potatoes, but fortunately, his two sons can now give him a hand, and he personally went to run the matter of buying land for the Ming family, and he handed over the matter of collecting the deposit and registering the book at home to his two sons.

When the Ming family rushed to He's house, He Shigui was preparing to set up a car to go to Wulitun to find the old man Ming, and the two groups of people directly met in the courtyard of the He family.

He Shigui was surprised and also very happy, he let the people of the Ming family go to the main house to serve tea, and only after a little greeting did he talk about a few fields that he favored for the Ming family, "... There is a 30-acre Ugtan in your Wulitun, and the other two 20-acre Ugtan are in Taojia Village and one in Wangjiadian. The two middle fields are in your Wulitun, one is twenty acres, and the other is fifteen acres. There are more fields, you have two pieces of ten acres of fields in Wulitun, and other villages also have two or three fields, all of which are between ten and twenty acres. The price doesn't make much difference, it depends on which village you want. ”

Old Man Ming happened to have silver in his arms, and after a little thought, he decided to go and see the fields located in Wulitun first.

Because the Ming family drove the ox cart over, He Shigui did not set the cart again, he rode his own little donkey, and went to Wulitun with the Ming family.

Wulitun's 30 acres of Shangtian belongs to a family surnamed Zhao in the village, the Zhao family has been passed down for three generations, and the family is more than less than the upper than the lower in Wulitun, if it were not for the only son in the family who accidentally fell into the water last autumn, and since then it has become a small medicine jar that has been bedridden all the year round, and the Zhao family will not sell the ancestral good field to raise money.

Facing Boss Zhao's face of the vicissitudes of life that could almost wring out a basin of bitter water, no one in the Ming family was embarrassed to open his mouth to lower the price, and the old man Ming was optimistic about the land, so he took Boss Zhao to the Ming family to get the silver without saying a word.

Thirty acres of land, fourteen and a half taels per acre, the Ming family took out four hundred and thirty-five taels of silver to buy land in one go.

handed over the title deed, Boss Zhao left with a thousand thanks, but Old Man Ming and the others had to go to a few other places to see the land.

Mingyue still had to go up the mountain and down the river, and she didn't continue to run with Old Man Ming and others, she only knew that Old Man Ming finally decided to buy 20 acres of upper fields in Taojia Village and 20 acres of middle fields in Wulitun.

In addition to the silver for buying land, the Ming family also had to give He Shigui and the officials of the county government who handled this matter a sum of silver, and also entertained He Shigui with a good meal and good dishes, so that the seventy acres of land cost the Ming family nearly 1,000 taels of silver.

Of course, after being full of wine and food, Old Man Ming did not forget to ask He Shigui to help his family find a reliable master to build a house.
