Chapter Forty-Six: Looking for Work in the Town
"Third brother, what kind of work are we looking for in town?" On this day, the brothers Huang Lian and Huang Bai went to the town to look for work to do, and Huang Lian didn't know what work to do, so he asked the third brother who had always had an idea.
"Second brother, let's take a look around first, first remember those places to find a job to do, let's ask for wages one by one, and then compare them one by one, and then make a choice." Huang Bai took his second brother around the streets of the town, and even went to the places of large households.
However, there are a few places to recruit workers.
One of them is very suitable for his own work, and he is a liquor store to recruit an accountant.
When he was in his hometown before, the account books of their pharmacy were calculated by himself, and he was very good at accounting and managing the account books.
It's just that this wine shop only recruits a settler, and he went alone, afraid that his second brother will be watched by no one, and he will return to his original form.
So, he directly crossed out the work of the accounting gentleman.
There is also a gambling hall looking for a partner, not to mention this, he is even more afraid that his second brother will go to work and become addicted to gambling.
There is also a guy who fights more, and he is also discharged by Cork.
Finally, there is also a wharf anti-package work, anti-ten bags to give a penny, get more.
There is no time limit for this work, you can do it if you want to, and you can leave after paying the money if you don't want to do it.
The only bad thing is that a sack of things weighs almost 100 pounds, and it takes a hundred breaths to move to a warehouse.
"Third brother, we don't need to work for others, we can do a small business.
I see that the steamed bun shop and the noodle shop in the town are doing good business, and your sister-in-law's skills are okay, so let's open a shop that sells food.
Opening this snack shop is simple, just prepare a car, stove, chopsticks, table, stools, etc. Huang Lian saw that his third brother was struggling to decide where to go to work, and Huang Lian came up with an idea.
"That's a good idea, now when we go home at this hour, we will miss lunch, let's buy a few buns to pad our stomachs, and go home after eating."
Let's go home and discuss with my father and mother to see what they think, and it also takes money to do small business, and my mother has to open this mouth. When Huang Bai heard his second brother's words, his eyes lit up, why didn't he expect it.

"Old man, today Su Su and the boss brought back twenty-one taels of silver, eighty percent of which were handed over to the public middle school, plus the money I saved before, there are also thirty taels of silver.
The money can't be sold. When Huang Zhang and Huang Yaozi went back to the room to take a nap, Huang Zhang pulled Huang Yaozi and said about the money.
"What do you think about this?
This money, renting a pharmacy is also successful, but our family does not have many medicinal materials, a few days after opening a pharmacy, we are afraid that all the medicinal materials stored in our family will be sold out, open a pharmacy to see a doctor and catch no medicine, isn't it a joke?
As for building a house, let alone it, in the cold winter, you will die of cold, who will build a house for you.
What do you want to do with all this money? Huang Yaozi glanced at his wife and asked.
He has been married to his wife for more than 30 years, almost 40 years.
I also know my wife's temperament, capable, shrewd, and have ideas, and now that she is proposing this matter, I am afraid that she has some ideas.
"If we can't open a pharmacy or build a house, we can use this money to buy land in the village!"
With a house and a land, we were able to settle down in this village.
After we have the land, we can be self-sufficient whether we grow it ourselves or rent it to others.
It's not okay to sit and eat empty, you have to open up sources and reduce expenditure. "Huang Zhang's family has long had an idea about buying land, but he didn't mention this matter before because he had no money, but now that he has money, this matter has to be put on the agenda.
The people live on food, and when they have land, they can grow grain for their own families or sell it for money.
Moreover, food is sometimes more useful than real money, and for example, this time their family fled the famine, and they couldn't buy food even if they had money.
The more Huang Zhang thought about it, the more he felt that he was going to buy a field and come down.
"This is feasible, just take the money and see if you can buy two acres of land and come back." When Huang Yaozi heard it, he also felt that what his wife said was reasonable, and he also agreed to buy the land first.
"Don't take a nap today, you can go to the village chief's house and ask if there is any land in our village for sale.
Ask how the price is, what kind of charter it is, our family will buy it as soon as possible, and wait for the spring of next year to clean it up, plant the grain, and then have a harvest next year. Huang Zhang's saw that her old man was going to continue to take a nap, she was the kind of person who would do things immediately when she thought of something, and she was resolute, she pulled Huang Yaozi to get up, threw her clothes to Huang Yaozi and asked him to go to the village chief's house to ask about the fields.

"Grandpa Huang, why are you here, come to my firewood room to warm up." Zhuang Xiaohe listened to his mother's instructions, and brought the marinated meat strips, fish, chickens and ducks and other things to the firewood room to smoke and make cured meat, and he happened to see Huang Yaozi walking towards his house, and he hurriedly greeted Huang Yaozi.
"Xiaohe, your father is at home, I have something to tell your father."
"My dad is in the firewood room in the backyard, I'll take you there."
"Uncle Huang, why are you here, what is there to find me, Xiaohe, hurry up and make tea." After Village Chief Zhuang saw his youngest son enter the firewood room with Huang Yaozi, he quickly stood up and asked Huang Yaozi.
"It's that you are asking the village chief for help with some things, and your family Dahe has gone to his father-in-law's house again." Huang Yaozi saw that Zhuang Dahe, his mouth and the baby were not seen in the firewood room, and Huang Yaozi said with certainty.
"My in-laws' birthday in the past two days, the eldest daughter-in-law took my eldest and grandson to live for a few days, uncle, what are you looking for me?"
"I came to you today to ask you if there is any ready-made land to buy in our village, or what regulations are needed to buy land."
"Uncle Huang, your family wants to buy land in our village, has your family earned the money to buy land so quickly?" Zhuang Liu, who was on the side, heard that Huang Yaozi meant to buy land in their village, she was a little surprised, how long did the Huang family settle in their village, from scratch, so quickly earned the money to buy the field, this made Zhuang Liu's surprise, is the doctor so profitable?
"You woman, why are you asking so much? If you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb. When the village chief Zhuang saw his mother-in-law asking about other people's private things, he was afraid that Huang Yaozi would have taboos and offend Huang Yaozi, so he hurriedly reprimanded his mother-in-law.
When the time comes, if his mother-in-law offends the village doctor with a few unintentional words, it will be worth the loss.
