Sister-in-law Osmanthus also figured it out, and even took the initiative to say: "It doesn't matter, then wait until next summer to sell it, and let the satisfied carpenter go in the second half of the year." ”

"No, it's better to make money quickly in business, and I need to earn money to let Ruyi come back and continue studying."

I didn't know that I could make money before, but now that I know, Cheng Satisfaction will not give up anything, and his sister must also have a book to read!

"Although I can't sell a piece of ice in the second half of the year, you can rest assured, I have other plans to get rich, and now is not the time, let's talk about how to make more money in the busy season first."

"The summer harvest is a race against God, everyone can't wait to eat and live in the ground, time is tight, no one has time to go to the set, and business will definitely be bad if there are fewer people."

Sister-in-law Osmanthus was very melancholy, but Cheng was satisfied but thinking very seriously.

"If only we could have a way to sell it on the ground, it's so hot and tiring when we harvest it, and our pieces of ice are cheap, and they will definitely sell without selling!"

"There are so many places in ten miles and eight towns, how can we run over?"

The mother and son were so sad that they couldn't think of a way at all, Tao Yuchen smiled and mentioned something.

"When the farm is busy, the school has a holiday."

"That's right!" Cheng Xingxing slapped his thigh, "Those hairy children are energetic, they can run all over the mountains, if they can be mobilized and let them go to the countryside to sell, the sales volume will definitely be much more than our fixed point at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative!" ”

"That's right!" It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, what Tao Yuchen wants is not to help Cheng Satisfaction earn one hundred or two hundred, but to teach him how to use his brain to make money.

"There are a lot of unwanted foam boxes in the health center, although the insulation effect is a little worse than the custom-made popsicle box, but it is lightweight, and the children can carry it, I recycled ten, let's find senior students, in the wholesale form of selling goods first and then checkout, let them go to the countryside to sell."

"First, we can quickly let more people know about this good thing, start our popularity, and pave the way for next summer.

Second, it can also help some poor students earn a little money to subsidize their families, or use it as tuition fees. ”

"In that case, let's find a few more, ten is a little too little." Sister-in-law Osmanthus is kind-hearted, and since she has the ability to help, she wants to help a few more.

Tao Yuchen shook his head, "There are only ten people who can sell pieces of ice, with our village as the center, around the nearest village, and if you are farther away, the pieces of ice will melt, and you can't sell them." ”

"Or are you thoughtful, like Xiao Li Village, those places are too far away from the Eighteen Mile Bridge, and the ice should turn into water when you rush to it."

Sister-in-law Guihua nodded in agreement, Cheng was satisfied, and he heard the voiceover.

"My aunt said that there are only ten people who can sell a piece of ice, is there any other arrangement?"

"Right!" Tao Yuchen gave a thumbs up without hesitation, and his eyes were full of encouragement.

Cheng is satisfied with the encouragement he has received for more than 20 years, and he has not received more than these few days! His whole person has changed from the inside out, and he no longer has the same low self-esteem as before.

Tao Yuchen pointed to the sack placed next to the table and looked at Sister-in-law Osmanthus: "If you want to help more children, you may have to trouble your sister-in-law." ”

"Hey, what's the trouble! As long as I Zhao Guihua can do it, no matter how hard and tired I am, it is not easy for Shanliwa to go to school, how many parents are worried when it comes to paying tuition, I understand the taste. ”

Sister-in-law Osmanthus couldn't help choking, and thought of her daughter who was alone again.

"Sister-in-law, don't be sad, we will definitely be able to help many children." Tao Yuchen got up and went to move the bag of acorns out, casually making up a reasonable excuse.

"At my mother's side, acorns can be made into cold powder, and after they are done, they are stir-fried with green onions, ginger and garlic, which is delicious, and very filling, more hungry than fine grains such as rice noodles."

"The most important thing is that one pound of acorns can produce twenty pounds of cold powder, and this big bag is conservatively estimated to make four hundred pounds of cold powder, even if you add firewood, green onions, ginger, garlic and other ingredients and oil, the cost is not high."

"The wholesale method is the same, after we have fried it, let the children take it to the ridge to sell, so that they can earn some difference for tuition. How to make cold noodles, how to fry cold noodles, I will teach my sister-in-law without reservation, do you think it can be done? ”

"Done! How can it not be! Xiaohao daughter-in-law, I really don't know how to thank you! ”

Sister-in-law Osmanthus was so excited that she held Tao Yuchen's hand tightly, her red eyes were full of tears, "Sister-in-law, let's be honest with you, in fact, all my family's land has been planted by others." ”

"I was satisfied with his father's illness before, and I couldn't pay off the money I borrowed from others, so I could only use the land to offset the bill. When the harvest came, I saw that every household was in full swing, and I really didn't feel good about it. Well, both of us have work to do this year! ”

Rural people can endure hardships and are not afraid of being tired, but they are afraid that they will become poorer and poorer if they are idle, and they have no hope for their lives.

Tao Yuchen first communicated with Cheng Satisfaction about the details of the wholesale, and then asked him to go to Chen Jianguo to discuss, find responsible children from the school, and go door-to-door to ask for the consent of the children's parents.

After Cheng was satisfied with going out, she began to teach Osmanthus sister-in-law to make acorn jelly.

In the evening, under the afterglow of the sunset, the third uncle drove the old ox back and jumped and jumped, and just bolted the cow to the cowshed and rushed to the front yard.

"Hungry! Hungry! ”

"Third uncle, don't worry, I fried the crisp corners and put them in the hall, go eat it, remember to drink some water first, don't worry when you eat, the filling inside is white sugar sesame seeds and crushed peanuts, be careful to burn your mouth."

"Good, good!"

The third uncle was so happy that he turned his head and ran into the house, and then even brought out a plate, and he couldn't hold back his saliva, but he still shared it with Tao Yuchen and Osmanthus first.

"Eat, eat."

"Third uncle, let's eat, we just ate."

"It's a mile, it's delicious, it's crispy on the outside and sweet on the inside, crushed peanuts and sesame seeds are mixed together, chewing is full of fragrant mouths, Xiaohao's daughter-in-law is so capable, what the crispy corner is, we don't know what it is, let alone make it."

Tao Yuchen's cheeks were so hot that he was praised, and just as he wanted to speak, he heard the village party secretary shouting through the loudspeaker.

"Chen Jianguo, Chen Jianguo, go to the brigade headquarters to answer the phone, and the provincial capital will look for you."

The content of the broadcast was repeated three times, and it was not until Sister-in-law Osmanthus pulled Tao Yuchen's sleeve that she reacted.

"It's not time to go back to the door, your mother's family called, don't there be anything important, why don't you go and listen to it?"

Sister-in-law Osmanthus kindly made a suggestion, but Tao Yuchen was very clear about the urine nature of the original family, and most of the people who called were Yang Cuifeng, and Tao Dazhuang would not care about her business at all.

"I only called my dad's name on the radio, maybe the elders have something to discuss, but I still don't go, and my dad will tell me when he comes back."

Tao Yuchen easily diverted the topic, "Sister-in-law, let's continue, you see, the shelled acorns can be pounded into flour with a stone mortar, and the next step is to put the acorn noodles into water and soak them." ”

"It must be soaked for a day and a night, only in this way can the bitterness and astringency in the acorns be completely removed, and then it is filtered to remove the coarse dregs and the remaining essence can be used to make cold powder. Let's be such a sister-in-law, you follow me to make a pot first, and then let go of it when you think you can get started. ”

"Good, good!" Sister-in-law Osmanthus couldn't take her eyes off it, and she had to concentrate on every step in her mind.

Chengjiazhuang is surrounded by mountains, there is no cement road in the village and no street lamps, less than seven o'clock outside the five fingers can not be seen, Tao Yuchen sent the osmanthus sister-in-law to the door, Chen Jianguo happened to be flashlight.

"Dad is back, then let's eat, grandpa and uncle, the third uncle has sent it over."

"Okay, I just have something to tell you, didn't Xiao Hao come back?"

"Lately, he's been on the night shift."

Tao Yuchen went into the stove room to serve food, Chen Jianguo noticed that the back of her hand was red, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with your hand?" ”

"I accidentally got a little bit of oil, it's okay, Dad, you can taste the crispy corners I made, Sister-in-law Osmanthus and the third uncle said that it was delicious and sweet, and I don't know if grandpa and uncle can get used to it."

"Sweet? Our family loves sweets, and so does Xiao Hao. ”

Chen Jianguo's words made Tao Yuchen's movements pause for a moment, thinking that the last time Cheng Chenhao said that he didn't like sweets, he really lied to her.

The crisp corners are slightly larger than ordinary dumplings, and Chen Jianguo tasted one and immediately praised it.

"Incense! It smells so good! The skin is crispy and the filling is rich, and it is so satisfying to bite into it, I can guarantee that your father and your uncle will definitely like to eat it! Our girl's craftsmanship is good, and the things she makes are beautiful and delicious! ”

"Dad, don't praise me, if you praise me again, my ears will fall to the ground."

Tao Yuchen smiled, put all the meals on the table, and said: "In the past few days, I have made a little money by selling a piece of ice, let's also improve the food, Dad, you eat a piece of braised pork, the stew is so bad that it melts in your mouth." ”

While picking up the vegetables, Tao Yuchen said with a smile: "Dad, I also took it upon myself to buy ten chicks, six little roosters and four little hens, Chen Hao helped pick them, it will definitely not be wrong." ”

"Raise until the autumn hen can lay eggs, when the eggs are left to eat and leave some hatching chicks, the little rooster can be killed and eaten until the year, and after this busy season I will have money to buy piglets, when the pigs and sheep are all raised, Dad, we will definitely be able to live a big fat year this year!"

"Daddy's letter, Daddy's letter." Chen Jianguo was indescribably moved in his heart, but there was bad news that he had to tell Tao Yuchen in person, "Good girl, Dad told you something, but don't think nonsense." ”

"Say it."

Tao Yuchen sat up straight, although his face was very calm, but the hands hidden under the table were tightly crossed.

Chen Jianguo was a little difficult to speak, and paused for a long time before finally filtering out the unpleasant words that Yang Cuifeng said on the phone, and replacing them with as euphemistic as possible.

"That's it, the phone call just now came from my mother-in-law, and she told me, now it's fashionable to do new things, and you will be free of returning in seven days. Count the days, go back to the door just in time for the mangs, and it's strange to be busy, the in-laws are also taking care of us, otherwise, let's not go back this time, and then prepare a generous gift for you to go back when you catch up with the New Year. ”
