"Also, I have taken home more money recently, enough to buy rice and grain, and I can save a few dollars."

No wonder the straw sandals are so wasted, because the work is so tiring and hard. And Guan Chibei recently went hunting, brought things home every day, and ate well, which in turn made up for the strength of the housekeeper and a few men.

It's wonderful.

However, after listening to the two sisters-in-law chatting a few words, Ye Wei thought thoughtfully on his face, in fact, the family should think of some way to make money, the peasant family can only find ways to make money, such as doing coolies and going to the city to do short-term work, and the means of earning money are actually very limited.

Before, she had just given birth, and her body was still very weak, and she didn't have the energy to think about these things, but now, it seems that she has to think about improving the housekeeper's living standards.

I can't still watch the housekeeper be as poor as ever, although I can eat a few good meals this time by hunting in Guan Chibei, but Brother Guan still has to go out every day to work as coolies and earn money to maintain the family's rice grain.

In general, the housekeeper is still so poor that he can't save a few dollars.

Regardless of the eldest brother, they go out to work as coolies, it consumes too much energy, and the return is very small, it is really not worth it, and it is not a long-term business at all.

Ye Wei thought about it in his heart for a day, and when it was night, he called Guan Chibei to come into the house.

Guan Chibei was still wearing a brown coarse cloth shirt, with a thin figure and a handsome white face, and walked in, looking at her with a flat expression.

I wonder what she called him in?

Ye Luo leaned back and said, "I told you that you have something to tell you, you have worked in the city for more than half a year before, haven't you?" Is there a big wharf in the city, I remember that Yuancheng is a famous place for water transportation...... I want to know how big the pier is, how many people there are every day, what is the level of daily life of the people in the city, and how does it compare to us? ”

If you want to find a livelihood, you must naturally understand the objective conditions.

Guan Chibei raised his eyebrows, his eyes deepened slightly, he didn't know why she asked this, he looked at her and replied: "Yuancheng Wharf, it is indeed not small, there are ships with large goods, because the shipping is smooth, the goods are prosperous, the development of Yuancheng under the mountain is very good, but the people in the city also spend a lot of money, if the average person wants to buy food a day, it is about twenty or thirty copper plates, and it will be much cheaper to make it at home, but in addition to rice grain, there will also be two or three vegetables, and the cost is similar to eating outside." ”

Ye Luo was a little surprised, and he was not surprised, because the city with developed shipping must be prosperous, and the business is relatively prosperous, so it will not be very bad.

Taking care of the eldest brother and a few of them in the extremely ordinary mountain villages, they can find jobs casually when they go out to the city, which shows that Yuancheng is active.

And she still vaguely remembers that the morning after giving birth, the eldest brother Guan said outside the thatched hut to see if they could get steamed buns when they went to work as coolies......

If you can get steamed buns, it also means that the environment in the city is probably very good, which is very different from the village.

No wonder, many slightly stronger men in Yunwu Village went out to work like Brother Guan and them to maintain their daily life.

There is no land to grow food in the mountains, so every household basically only has a small vegetable plot that they water all year round, and they can grow some vegetables. But food can't be grown.

Now is the autumn harvest time, but Ye Wei didn't see the housekeeper busy, that's the reason.
