When Xu Yuan returned to Zhoujia Village, noon had passed.

He first went to Zhou You's house, and then visited the eldest old man Zhou in Zhoujia Village under the leadership of Zhou You.

When Zhou Lao was young, he was also in charge of authority in Zhoujia Village, and he was highly respected, and many things that the younger generation did not know, Zhou Lao knew and remembered.

Like what......

"Oh, you're saying that there are two Qingtian stone ridges in the village, and who owns the land in the past?" Zhou Lao thought for a while and said, "Remember to remember, I divided it all by myself, how could I not remember." ”

"That piece of land is now being cultivated by Zhou Lao Liu, but it was given to him after his father died five years ago."

"His dad is ...... Nine years ago...... Zhou Butcher repaid the favor and gave his field to Zhou Lao Liu's father. ”

"Because Zhou Lao Liu's father sold a pig to Zhou Butcher before, but Zhou Butcher started his business because of this pig and made it!"

"A pig for a piece of land, this kid Zhou Butcher really has a conscience, the grace of dripping water, and the spring reciprocates. Originally, I was going to spread this good story, but Zhou Butcher is a low-key person, and he doesn't want too many people to know about this matter, so as not to make anyone look at Zhou Laoliu's father. ”

"So I didn't say it, and there aren't many people in the village who know about it."

After some exchanges.

The name Zhou Butcher gradually surfaced.

……

"Here, this is the back door of Zhou's butcher's house. They also have a wine shop in front, and I heard my father and mother say that their family is prosperous and rich! Zhou You took Xu Yuan to Zhou Tuhu's house.

Knock knock!

Xu Yuan knocked on the wooden door.

"Who?" A rugged man's voice came from the courtyard.

"I am Mr. Xu Yuan, the teacher of the Moxiang Private School in Luzhen, and I heard that the pork of the Zhou butcher's family in Zhoujia Village is good, so I came over to cut a few catties. If it's really delicious, I'll eat your pork every month in the future. ”

After Xu Yuan finished speaking, the door was immediately opened.

There are several people in a private school, and there are students to eat at noon, which is not a small business!

"Hello Mr. Xu, I'm Butcher Zhou, how much meat do you want?" Zhou Butcher was dressed in a black-brown cloth coat and carried a pig-killing knife in his hand.

The cloth was full of stains, and even blood and flesh, which made people unappetizing.

But the smell on his body is unusually good.

It doesn't have the greasy smell of meat that ordinary butchers smell, but has a sweet and pure feeling.

From this alone, it is not difficult to understand why the business of Zhou Tuhu's liquor shop is booming.

are saying that his meat is delicious, and I think it should be quite particular about the materials.

"How much meat do you have." Xu Yuan asked rhetorically.

"This ......" Zhou Butcher was stunned, and then smiled, "Hahaha, sir, don't worry, how much meat do you want, I Zhou Butcher has as much meat here." ”

"Oh? In this case, there must have been a lot of pigs raised by the butcher that week? Xu Yuan asked again.

Zhou's face changed slightly: "It's not a lot, but my pigs can grow, and the meat slaughtered by one pig is worth more than ten heads of other people's homes!" ”

Xu Yuan frowned, but he didn't believe it.

"Really!" Zhou You helped explain, "The pigs of the Zhou butcher's family are as fat as mountains and taste as precious. In our Zhoujia Village and the surrounding Shiliba Village, many people eat the pork of Zhou's butchers. ”

"And it cures all diseases, and you don't need to find Lang Zhong for ordinary small problems, come to Zhou's butcher's house to cut two taels of meat and eat it, and the next day it will be good." The barefoot Langzhong all said that there was no money to be made in our Zhoujia Village, and after a long time, none of them came. ”

It's okay if you don't explain it, but once you explain it, Xu Yuan doesn't believe it even more.

Even nowadays, not every household can afford to eat meat, and many families only have one meal during the New Year's holidays. But in general, to supply the amount of meat used in such a large number of regions, the Zhou butcher's family must have at least thirty or fifty pigs.

And when the butcher opened the door, Xu Yuan looked at the courtyard, and it didn't look like he could fit so many pigs.

Not to mention the all-encompassing cure...... This is not something that ordinary pork can do.

The only thing Xu Yuan knew about this effect was a relatively rich aura. Reiki strengthens the body and heals most minor ailments.

"I wonder if I can take a look at that pig that weighs more than ten?" Xu Yuan looked at Zhou Butcher.

The latter hesitated for a moment, then stepped out of the way.

Xu Yuan and Zhou You rushed in.

A strange color flashed in Zhou Butcher's eyes, and after closing the back door, he also plugged in the door bolt, and then followed behind Xu Yuan with a pig-killing knife.

The pig-killing knife shook and flickered, and it was quite sharp.

……

Zhou's family is not large, and there are a few lush onions and garlic plants in the yard, as well as a stout plum tree, and a deck chair not far away.

Almost every household is also in this shape, and it is not obvious how rich and expensive their family is.

The only difference from ordinary people is probably that in their pigsty room, there is an earth-shattering snoring sound.

It is not difficult to tell from the sound that this pig is not small.

Sure enough, Zhou Butcher opened the door of the pigsty.

A white pig about the length of a foot was lying in the house, snoring and sleeping.

Xu Yuan frowned.

This pig ...... I'm afraid that I'm not young.

Although large enough, killing a few pigs a year is enough to meet the supply within a radius of tens of miles.

But here's the problem...... Such pigs are not something that can be raised in three or five years. It will take about eight or nine years to do it, and it will only be possible if the pig is in good weather and does not get sick.

"This pig is indeed big enough, but ...... If you kill it, won't the Zhou butchers have no pork to sell in the coming year? Xu Yuan was puzzled.

Zhou Butcher smiled: "A certain way is it, either to make the pig grow faster, or to make the pig grow bigger, in short, the pork of a certain family is by no means comparable to the pork shop outside!" ”

These pretending words, coupled with Zhou Butcher's self-confidence, were as if his pigs were extraordinary.

The people in the partial village still eat his set, and the more mysterious things are, the more they dare not question them, and the more they feel that they are unusual.

Looking at Xu Yuan's thoughtful expression, Zhou Butcher said, "Sir, is there anything else?" If not, I'm going to sharpen my knives, and there were quite a few customers who ordered pork a few days ago, and this fat pig will be slaughtered in the next few days. ”

As he spoke, he also lit up the pig-killing knife in his hand.

For some reason, Zhou You suddenly felt a little scared.

But as soon as he thought about Xu Shenxian's identity, he calmed down again.

"I don't think it's enough to do empty words. They all say that your pork is delicious, and if you don't taste it yourself, I'm ...... after all After all, the demand for our private school is not small, and my husband has a unique taste, and what ordinary people like, he may not like. Xu Yuan looked tangled.

Only then did the Zhou butcher let down his guard in his heart.

This business does not look small.

Twisting and pinching was originally the style of these poor and sour literati.

If you want to try it, you can say it, and go around so many circles!

"It's not that hard." Zhou Butcher pointed to the main entrance of his house and said, "My wife Zhou Chen has opened a wine shop next to it, and the side dishes in it are all pork raised by my family, so Mr. can go and taste it." ”

"But anyone who has eaten my pork will not be dissatisfied."

After Zhou Butcher finished speaking, Zhou You nodded again and again.

According to him, the Zhou family's pork is really fragrant, and it is different from ordinary pork. In particular, there is a special fragrance in it, which is unforgettable, and the mouth is hungry.

"In that case, then we will bother. Zhou butcher, please lead the way. After Xu Yuan finished speaking, while Zhou Butcher was not paying attention, a faint golden luster flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at the courtyard.
