Chapter 98: Gathering
Qian Yu laughed, turned around and took out a bamboo tube from his arms, opened it and a sweet fragrance came to his nose, picked up a wooden spoon to scoop some viscous liquid, and carefully fed it to the child's mouth.
As soon as a child comes into contact with a viscous liquid, his eyes suddenly widen as if in disbelief. The next moment, his face bloomed with an unprecedented smile: "Ah...... Ah......h
Seeing that the child opened his mouth wide and looked like he was still going to eat, Qian Yu shook his head, fed another spoonful, and then covered the bamboo tube. The child handed it to his mother, and by the way, he also handed over the bamboo tube: "This is honey, I finally got it from a beekeeper, give the child a spoonful every day, it can increase resistance, but remember not to eat more." ”
The woman took it tremblingly, of course she knew what honey was, and although there was no environmental pollution at this time, the transportation was inconvenient, and the shadow of the beekeeper was rarely seen. If you want to eat honey, the only time is in the spring season. At this time, they have to find a beekeeper to buy it, the price is much more expensive than meat, and with their family background, they will never be able to afford it.
"This ...... It's too expensive for me to want! It was Li Hu who spoke, he didn't dare to look at his daughter-in-law's resentful eyes, and refused with a hard heart.
Li Hu's daughter-in-law reluctantly handed it back to Qian Yu, in fact, honey was not attractive to her, but her own children ......
Qian Yu directly ignored Li Hu's words, opened the bamboo basket with him, and there were four kinds of food in it, a piece of pork belly, a piece of pork ribs, a few pig's trotters, and half a bag of soybeans.
Qian Yu pointed to the pig's trotters and soybeans: "Cook these two together and give them to the woman to drink, and the effect of promoting milk is excellent." I heard others say that your child often cries at night, which is a lack of calcium in the body, stew more bone broth to feed him, pork ribs and meat are the best, and it will be effective in two or three days. As for the pork belly, it's for you, and I only heard about the cement yesterday, which made you feel wronged. ”
"This ......" Li Hu wanted to refuse, but it can be seen that Qian Yu looked sincere, and looked at his daughter-in-law's eager gaze, and couldn't help sighing.
His face was pale, and he was unprecedentedly solemn: "With you today, even if I hand over my life, I only need to give an order in the future, no matter whether it is in the water or in the fire, Li Hu will never frown." ”
Li Hu's daughter-in-law hurriedly pulled her own man, but he ignored it.
Qian Yu laughed and patted Li Hu's shoulder: "I'm relieved to have you say this." I asked you to go to the cement department, I want you to instruct them on how to burn cement, not for you to jump into the water and fire, I can't bear to be a technical talent like you! ”
After listening to Qian Yu's words, Li Hu's daughter-in-law realized that she had misunderstood, glared at the head of the house shyly, and was about to go back to the house, but was stopped by Qian Yu.
He took out the consistent money from his arms and handed it to Li Hu's daughter-in-law: "Sister-in-law, I know that your family is living in poverty, this money is my advance for one month's salary, and use it to subsidize the family!" ”
Seeing that Li Hu wanted to speak, Qian Yu hurriedly stopped: "Brother Li, don't see outside, these copper coins are nothing to me, but they are very important to you, the eldest husband doesn't have to care about these small sections, as long as you help me burn some more cement, everything is worth it." ”
Li Hu nodded, secretly making up his mind.
"Well, can I come in and talk? It's a bit cold outside! Qian Yu couldn't help but remind.
Li Hu realized that he was too lazy, and hurriedly pulled Qian Yu into the house. The misunderstanding was resolved, and the two felt that they were much closer, and they began to talk about the firing of cement.
Qian Yu has theories, Li Hu emphasizes practice, Qian Yu's various changes in clay and lime after heating certainly inspired Li Hu, and some of Li Hu's insights also made Qian Yu's eyes shine.
Before he knew it, it was noon, and reluctantly, Qian Yu simply stayed at Li Hu's house for lunch, but he didn't expect that Li Hu's daughter-in-law was still a clever cook, and the food she made was extremely exquisite, not much worse than Aunt Cai. After asking, I found out that the other party's parents all made a living from cooking, and she was nurtured since she was a child, but she learned a skill.
Thinking of his other plan, Qian Yu sent her an invitation, and Li Hu's daughter-in-law was also very moved when she heard it. She looked at her man, but Li Hu waved his hand: "You can do it yourself, whatever you want, I don't care." ”
Qian Yu didn't say a single step to die, anyway, he had to wait for a while for this plan, and the other party had enough time to think about it.
After talking for a while, Qian Yu said goodbye, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't expect that there was such a genius in the world, and just a few specious words from the rooster could determine the time and temperature of calcination, which was simply ...... Fortunately, he was subdued by himself, otherwise he would have lost a lot.
Walking leisurely on the road, Qian Yu was more confident about his next plan.
At dusk, the old village chief came, this time the old man didn't say goodbye to Hesui, as soon as he saw Qian Yu, he sighed: "Little brother Qian, this time the old man can't stand you!" ”
He wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Qian Yu: "Boss, if you have nothing to do, just rest at home, running back and forth like this is too hurtful for people of your age." I know pretty much everything, don't worry, I'll figure it out myself.
Who knew that the old village chief shook his head stubbornly: "I know that your Flying Dragon Gang brothers are a tyrant in Qingfeng County, and it is only a matter of blink of an eye to clean up Cheng Si and a few people." The old man just wants to beg you, don't do too much, after all, they are all descendants of the village, and the old man grew up watching. ”
Qian Yu couldn't help but look at the old village chief in amazement, the old guy's wisdom was beyond his expectations, when everyone in Yunxi Village thought that he had nothing to do about this matter, he expected the most likely result.
That's right, as long as he refuses to suffer this secret loss, calls all the people of the Flying Dragon Gang, and doesn't even need to do anything, Cheng Si's guys who bully the soft and are afraid of the hard will run as far as they can.
Would you use this method yourself? As a newcomer in the new century, of course Qian Yu will not.
So he comforted the old village chief and said, "Don't worry, for your face, my lord, I can promise never to use force first." Of course, if they do, I won't be restrained. By the way, I would like to ask the old man to tell you that tomorrow morning by the salt well, except for those who must stay behind, all others will gather there, and I have something to announce. ”
Seeing that Qian Yu was confident, the old village chief let go of his worries. When Qian Yu came back, he saw the tall and rugged bear, and he had heard about this man's great achievements, and after thinking about it, he decided to come to explore Qian Yu's mouth.
Although he knew that Cheng Si and the others were unreasonable, both sides were his children, and if he hurt someone's life in a fight, he probably wouldn't be at peace for the rest of his life.
After receiving the promise, the old village chief's heart and eyes also came alive, and after smacking around the house, he left with a piece of bacon and a few sausages satisfied.
The words of the old village chief are still the most authoritative in the village. So early the next morning, all the villagers gathered around the salt well.
The original salt well has long since disappeared, replaced by a deep pit seven meters deep and twenty meters long and wide, in which clear water comes out from time to time, and if it were not for a layer of white salt particles oozing from the dry place next to it, no one would have recognized this water vein as a salty water vein.
Compared with the yellow and thin faces some time ago, the faces of these people are much more ruddy now, and they are more energetic. However, at this moment, they are not as usual as Zhang Jiachang and Li Jia's short chatter, but they are all silent.
Everyone has heard about the events of Yunxi Village in the past two days, and under the initiation of Cheng Si, most people have the intention of setting up their own doors. Because these people are involved in the whole process from kiln building to brick building, they have the confidence to burn better bricks and stone by themselves.
They know the price of red bricks, and they also know that red bricks are in short supply in the market, and Qian Yu never keeps it a secret in this regard. As long as they wish, they can turn the burned bricks into copper coins at any time.
They calculated that in addition to eating and drinking, most of the money could be used to repair the house, buy some daily necessities, and buy flowers and clothes for the children......
No matter how you calculate it, it earns more than working for Qian Yu.
