Chapter 46: Little by little
When Yang Yuanding came back with the drawings, he also brought the exact news of the start of the ferry.
However, Xu looked at the drawings and listened to what Yang Yuanding said, but he was awkwardly silent.
Zhang Sijiu knew what Xu was silent, and immediately wanted to talk about his stall selling drinks.
Just before she could speak, Yang Yuanding asked: "Is it expensive to build a pigsty?" ”
Xu hesitated, but chose to tell the truth: "It's not expensive." According to what you said, you don't have to be that tall, if one wall is high, and all three walls are low, you don't have to dig much mud. The autumn harvest is coming soon, and the grain grass is also ready-made. But the problem is, you have to hire someone. ”
If there are two men in the family, you can grit your teeth and do it yourself, but ......
Zhang Xiaoshan has only one person, and after the ferry is repaired, it will be the autumn harvest, and if she has to build a house after the autumn harvest, she will feel distressed.
Moreover, Xu really felt that it was not necessary: "It's just pig breeding, there's no need to build such a good house, right?" ”
Zhang Sijiu asked Xu softly: "If you ask others to help, how much will it cost?" ”
Xu pondered for a moment: "It is estimated that it will be at least two taels of silver." Digging mud and building a house is hard work, and you have to pack a meal, so you don't dare to lose people. You'll have to buy some wood. ”
Calculated in this way, two taels of silver is really not expensive.
The main reason is that the pigsty is simple, the materials are still small, and the most expensive material is estimated to be wood.
But the problem is that now the Zhang family can't take out two taels of silver.
Even if they can take it, they won't be willing to use it to build a house for pigs - no one has taken care of it!
Zhang Sijiu didn't know if he could make two taels of silver by selling drinks.
But two taels of silver, Yang Yuanding has it.
He said without hesitation: "I'll pay this money first." Pig raising is a big deal. As long as you cultivate it this time, you can continue to raise it in the future, and you will be able to return to its roots soon. ”
This is not a lie, a pound of pork ranges from more than ten to twenty yuan, the average price is about sixteen or seventeen, a pig is really raised, to two hundred catties, just a pig can be sold for three thousand yuan. Even if the woolly pig is cheaper, only selling for about 2,500, then it is still 500 Wen.
But Xu doesn't believe in how much money can be made from pig farming.
She is a good pig breeder, but all year round, a pig is a little more than a hundred, making money? I don't make much money at all.
Even Xu Shi turned upside down and persuaded Yang Yuanding: "San Lang, this money can't be spent indiscriminately." Listen to my advice, even if your family is rich, you can't be so foolish. Your father and mother should be happy when they find out. ”
Xu felt that Yang Yuanding was young and didn't understand this, and if he really took the money, it really shouldn't be.
At that time, there will be no way to explain to Yang County.
Deceiving other children's money is going to be thundered by the sky.
Zhang Sijiu saw Xu's resoluteness, and gently shook his head at Yang Yuanding, who was still planning to persuade Xu, and motioned him to stop talking.
This money, Xu will definitely not ask for it.
Even Zhang Sijiu and Yang Yuanding are very sure that this castrated pig will definitely grow faster than ordinary pigs, but now there is no factual evidence to convince Xu.
Fortunately, drinks will be available for sale right away.
Zhang Sijiu looked up at the Xu family and discussed with the Xu family: "Second aunt, I think San Lang will definitely not be wrong since he read it from a book." ”
Before Zhang Sijiu finished speaking, Xu interrupted her with a serious face: "That's not okay - we can't ask for this money." ”
Zhang Sijiu finished speaking: "I know, second aunt, we definitely can't ask for this money." Even if we want to repair the pigsty, we must also earn our own money. Second aunt, I want to discuss something with you. ”
Xu's expression softened a little, and his attitude softened: "Say, what's the matter?" ”
Saburo said that the construction of the ferry was about to begin. I want to make some drinks to sell. If we sell it for money by then, let's save it and repair the pigsty. Zhang Sijiu seriously proposed.
Xu Shi was stunned for a moment, and then he wanted to laugh a little, but at the same time he was a little sad.
She couldn't help but touch Zhang Sijiu's head and gently rubbed her hair: "Jiu Niang, why are you ...... so sensible and worried?"
Yang Yuanding thought this idea was great: "Sell, sell, sell!" I can help you taste it! I've had a lot of drinks in town! They taste familiar to me! ”
It's hot, he's the youngest in the family, and his pocket money is still sufficient, so isn't there a constant stream of ice drinks?
Zhang Sijiu nodded: "Then it's decided!" ”
Zhang Sijiu didn't feel this way about Xu's sadness at all, she was actually very happy: things were really going well!
Xu Shi thought for a while: "I'll give you the money-"
Zhang Sijiu waved his hand: "Don't have the capital first, I have it here." In the past two days, I will sell the fungus again, dig up something else and sell it. ”
The cost of drinking is low. If you don't use ice, it's even lower.
Zhang Sijiu estimated that the money was enough.
Moreover, she can buy a lot of raw materials without spending money, and go directly to the ground to dig.
For example, honeysuckle.
For example, Maogen.
Another example, light bamboo leaves.
These are all that can be found.
The most expensive cost is sugar.
At that time, Zhang Sijiu plans to buy all the money in his hand into sugar. There are buckets at home, and bowls at home. Well water and firewood are also available at home.
As for manpower: she added CMB, Komatsu and Xiaobai, that was enough.
At most, Zhang Xiaoshan needs to help carry these drinks in the morning.
Thinking of this, Zhang Sijiu felt more and more beautiful: no matter how much he could earn, he felt that he was really sure to make a profit!
Xu looked at Zhang Sijiu, and a strange thought popped up in his mind: Could it be that Jiuniang followed the eldest brother? Is it talented to do small business?
Zhang Sijiu's father is a little merchant. The reputation has always been good, although he doesn't earn much, but in the past few years, he has married his own daughter-in-law and married Zhang Xiaoshan, all relying on him.
There is no way, a widowed mother of the Yang family with two teenage children is still difficult to eat, let alone make money.
This is also the reason why the Zhang family is so poor.
Thinking like this, Xu felt a little relieved and a little sad: thinking of the deceased eldest brother and sister-in-law, this is not a taste in my heart.
However, Xu still smiled and said, "Since Jiu Niang has such an idea, let's try it." ”
Zhang Sijiu sincerely thanked him: "Thank you, second aunt." ”
This matter, if the Xu family does not support it, Zhang Sijiu understands in his heart that it will definitely not be possible.
Xu Shi rubbed Zhang Sijiu's head, and his heart softened: "Our Jiuniang is sensible and smart, but there is one thing, everything has to be discussed with me, you know?" ”
No matter how sensible and smart you are, you are still a child.
Zhang Sijiu nodded: "Second aunt, don't worry, I will definitely discuss with you." ”
As a collective, you must agree to everything so that there will be no internal resistance!
Moreover, one person will definitely not be able to do great things!
Dr. Zhang is experienced.
