Chapter 164
Coming out of the rich restaurant, it was already Shen Shi, and the little couple went straight to Zhang Ji's shop.
Zhang Ji's business is very good, and when Liu Yifan and Luo Ying arrived, Zhang Shouxin and the tailor were tailoring the guests.
The two waited in the shop for a while, just like last time, until Zhang Shouxin saw off the guests and was free, so they sat together and talked about business.
"Uncle Zhang, your business is good!"
"It's getting colder and colder in the last few days, so this winter coat business is okay." Zhang Shouxin said, "It's almost the end of the month, if you don't come today, I'm going to come to you." ”
"Uncle Zhang, we are here today for the exhibition." Liu Yifan said, "Because this event needs a lot of space, we want to set the location near the east gate of the city, I have understood, every day from the east gate of the city into the county is the most people, just not far from the city gate, there is a vacant land, completely enough for us to hold this exhibition, and it is not far from the tile city." ”
Washi is the most lively place in the county, and the passing vendors and pedestrians are endless, next to Washi, which will have a great impact on the passenger flow of the fair.
Luo Ying said: "You go there first to see, and how to set up this tent must also be implemented."
When Zhang Shouxin heard this, he nodded again and again, and said, "Yingzi is right, let's take a look together." ”
After the words fell, Zhang Shouxin got up and explained the tailor in the shop, and went out with Liu Yifan.
The matter of the exhibition, Luo Ying and Liu Yifan discussed it when you were at home, Liu Yifan led, Luo Ying assisted, so Luo Ying did not follow Zhang Shouxin to communicate, but leisurely drank tea in the tailor shop and waited for Liu Yifan.
This is an hour.
After Zhang Shouxin came back, the smile on his face continued, and he only heard him say: "Then let's just say it, the time of the exhibition here in the county is set for December 12, for four days, and December 18 will go to Wufeng Town for three days, I will find someone to transcribe the leaflet you said as soon as possible." ”
Liu Yifan said: "Then after we go back, we will start recruiting people, preparing for training, and the shed will be built at the beginning of the month." ”
"Okay!"
After the two sides communicated, Zhang Shouxin wanted to keep them for dinner, but Liu Yifan and Luo Ying politely declined, at this time it was already the end of the unitary time, and if they didn't return home, it would be dark for a while, and they would not be able to hurry.
Let's say that in Choushuwan Village, seeing that they haven't come home so late, the Xiao family is very worried.
"These two children, why haven't they come back?" Mrs. Xiao was in a hurry, "It's approaching the end of the year, and they have money on them, I'm really worried!" ”
Xiao comforted: "Mother, don't worry, there may be something delayed." ”
Xiao Dashu said: "Otherwise, I'll look for it along the road!" ”
Old man Xiao hurriedly got up: "I'll go with you." ”
At this time, Chinese New Year's Eve stood up and said, "Dad, I'll go too." ”
Liu Yiming said proudly: "Grandpa, uncle, you don't have to worry, my sister-in-law knows kung fu." ”
Mrs. Xiao was still not at ease, and said: "I can't do kung fu, they are only two people, and two fists are hard to beat with four hands!" Old man, you better go to the entrance of the village, or I won't worry. ”
"Nacheng, I'll go and have a look with the tree."
As soon as Old Man Xiao got up, he heard a voice outside the house, Xiao Dashu hurriedly got up and opened the door of the room, looked at it, and exclaimed, "I'm back!" They're back! ”
The elders of the Xiao family hurriedly ran out, and the old man Xiao asked, "Why did you come back so late today?" ”
Xiao said: "If you don't come back, your grandfather and uncle will go to look for you!" ”
Liu Yifan said with a smile: "We and the lady have brought self-defense weapons, and we both have kung fu to support ourselves, so we are not afraid." ”
The stone in Mrs. Xiao's heart finally landed, and she said: "It's not more than usual, now it's the end of the year, there are many thieves, and today the Liu Shuitian in the village was beaten up, and all the money on his body was robbed!" ”
No wonder they're so worried today!
Liu Yifan and Luo Ying looked at each other when they heard this.
Xiao Shi admonished: "Don't come back so late in the future, we are worried to death!" ”
It's a good feeling to be remembered by your family! Liu Yifan and Luo Ying's hearts were full of emotion.
Both of them nodded heavily! "Hmm!"
Old man Xiao said, "Don't stand here!" The two children dared to take the road for an hour, they must have frozen, come in and roast the fire! ”
The farmers had no money to buy charcoal, so they all crowded around the stove and lit a fire to keep warm.
Xiao said: "Yiming is really sensible, and when he saw that you didn't come back, he made the meal, and left the food for you, and kept it warm in the pot!" ”
The children of the poor are in charge early, Liu Yifan is not at home, Liu Yiming is the boss, he can take the initiative to take care of the child, Liu Yifan is very comforted.
Luo Ying fetched hot water, washed their hands together, and then started to eat dinner, because they made dozens of catties of peach crisp, boiled a lot of lard, and left a lot of oil residue at home.
After eating and drinking, Luo Ying began to gossip and inquired about the robbery of Liu Shuitian and his wife.
Mrs. Xiao said: "We don't know the specifics, anyway, the two of them came back crying and scolding all the way, with a blue nose and swollen face, and a miserable appearance." ”
Xiao added: "The couple went to the county to set up a stall to sell clothes, and it is said that the business has been good in the past two days, and they have a little money on them, but they are all robbed today!" It's good to be beaten, hey......"
Mrs. Xiao said softly: "The people in the village said that they were acquaintances, otherwise how would they know that they are rich?" ”
Whether it was done by an acquaintance, Luo Ying can't be sure, but it's always right to be careful in the future.
Xiao said: "The year is over, you should pay more attention to entering and leaving the county, this year you are building a big house, buying land and selling lo-mei, and now this biscuit factory, it is very eye-catching, I am worried that someone will be red and stab you in the back!" ”
Old man Xiao asked, "How do you get your clothes?" That's a lot of goods! It's been piling up in warehouses for so long! I heard that Liu Shuitian has set up a stall in the county town in the past two days, and business is good, why don't you hurry up? ”
Liu Yifan replied: "We are going to talk to Uncle Zhang about this today, this dress is only a part, Uncle Zhang can't put it down, so it was not shipped away, we will hold an exhibition next month, starting tomorrow, we have to prepare." ”
"A trade fair?"
The Xiao family was puzzled.
Then Liu Yifan told them about the exhibition they were about to hold, and after listening to it, the Xiao family could stuff eggs in their mouths, and they threw themselves on the five bodies that Luo Ying admired!
Liu Yifan said: "We will be very busy in the next two months, the biscuit factory has just been established, today in the shop, those guests have tasted it, the response is very good, and next month is the month of La, to buy New Year's goods, is the peak of sales of food, I estimate that our biscuit business will not be bad, we still have four greenhouse vegetables to serve, as well as exhibitions, and tempeh......"
Xiao Dashu said: "Yingzi, Fan boy, what do you want us to do, you just have to speak, and Uncle will do his best to help you!" ”
Old man Xiao also said: "Yes! Grandpa can't do anything else, but he can still do hard work. ”
Luo Ying said with a smile: "Grandma and grandpa, you can feed the chickens and ducks well, this is already a big project!" ”
"Just those chickens and ducks, you don't need to say it, the grandmother can also be done, you are so busy, we two old immortals, we must not be idle."
Liu Yifan said: "Grandmother, look at what you said, there are 400 chickens and ducks, and it takes a lot of effort to clean the duck house and chicken coop every day, and there is still work to be done in the greenhouse!" ”
Luo Ying said: "I think so, we have to invite ten people from the village to sell clothes, and then we will collect money, and we must find our own people to collect money, Danian and Quanfu can't leave, so we want to let the eldest uncle, Xiaohan, uncle, Uncle Good Luck, plus me and Yifan, the six of us should collect about the same amount of money, grandma and grandpa still have chickens and ducks to feed, and take time to take care of the greenhouse with Grandma Li and Grandpa Li." ”
Liu Yifan said: "Tomorrow Ruyi Restaurant will come to pull tempeh, Wang shopkeeper will come to try tempeh, Wang shopkeeper has a steamed bun shop in Wufeng Town, we think that if he is interested at that time, the agency of Wufeng Town will be given to him, if he is willing to take the agency, we will get tempeh tomorrow." ”
Xiao smiled and said, "Whatever you say, the eldest aunt will do it!" ”
Xiao Dashu thought for a while and said, "According to what you say, you're really busy!" Yifan, shouldn't we prepare more lard first! Otherwise, in the later stage, they will be busy with the exhibition, and the lard will not have time to boil! ”
When Liu Yifan heard this, he thought for a little and said: "Well, what my uncle said is right, I will go to Shun Fabo tomorrow and ask him to keep all the lard for us, and now we will make enough preparations and strive to make more money this year!" ”
Old man Xiao thought of the acres of fertile land under his name, and was very happy, and said: "Yes, make more money and buy more fields!" ”
The Xiao family went out of Xiaojiagou, and with the help of Liu Yifan and Luo Ying, they have made some money in the past few months, but they have spent the acres of land they bought, and there is nothing left.
Luo Ying asked: "Grandpa, if you plan to stay in Choushuwan, you should buy a piece of land first and build a house, my cousin is not young, he will be eighteen years old after the New Year, and if you have a house, it is easy to talk about your daughter-in-law." ”
Luo Ying's words fell, and the Xiao family fell into deep thought, and they almost forgot about this stubble.
Comparing this with the days of Xiaojiagou, the gap is too big!
In the past, only the Chinese New Year could eat meat, now the family can be stained with meat every three or five days, the children are so old that they have not worn new clothes, but this year even new winter clothes have been worn, in the past winter the family bed bedding grass to keep warm, this year there are quilts, the days, it can be said that the world is turned upside down!
"We also need trustworthy help, if the biscuit factory stabilizes, Brother Danian will have a stable income, chickens and ducks will start laying eggs after the year, after the weather warms up, we can start selling lo-mei, if the vegetables in the greenhouse grow gratifying, there will be no good life in the future." Liu Yifan said, "If you plan to send Xiaohan to study, Xiaojiagou doesn't even have a private school." ”
Old man Xiao sighed and said, "Yifan is right, for the sake of the children, let's stay in Choushu Bay!" Later, Qingming Chongyang returned to Xiaojiagou to offer incense to the ancestors and sweep the tombs. ”
