A baker's dozen

Ma Xiaodong touched Ma Xiaoyun's hair dotingly, turned around and closed the door tightly, and then pulled Ma Xiaoyun into the hall.

"Xiaoyun, let's go, let's see how much your sister Yueyue has earned today!"

Ma Xiaoyun obediently sat down with the two of them, handed over a look, Yan Yueyue took the money out of her pocket and carefully spread it out on the small wooden table in front of her, looking at the banknotes covered with the small table, Ma Xiaoyun's eyes were stunned,

"Wow...... So much? ”

"Come, Xiaoyun, you can count for me." Yan Yueyue pushed the money in front of her and smiled lightly.

Ma Xiaoyun obediently sorted them out one by one, counted them, and counted them all after a while, and returned them to Yan Yueyue.

"Sister Yueyue, there are a total of fifteen yuan and six cents, plus the deposit of twenty-five yuan given to you by the cannery, a total of forty yuan and six cents."

Yan Yueyue smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, and pulled out two ten-yuan whole coins,

"Brother Dongzi, Xiaoyun, the twenty yuan here is for you, which is considered my food and accommodation in your house for so long, as well as the cost of you helping me sell goods together, I still need a little bit of other money, but if you are willing to do the business with me in the future, I also welcome you to join the shares!"

Ma Xiaodong and Ma Xiaoyun were anxious when they heard this, and pushed the money,

"Yan Yueyue, what are you talking about!"

"Sister Yueyue, we can't ask for your ...... this money"

"Take it, these are what you deserve......" Yan Yueyue pretended to be angry and pouted,

"I'm angry if you don't accept me anymore, don't you want me to live in your house if you don't accept it?!"

"No, what's that...... You just don't have the money to give us, and we can't drive you out......" Ma Xiaodong blushed, he has always been honest, and he will not say anything good and obedient.

Yan Yueyue didn't speak, and quickly put the money into Ma Xiaodong's shirt pocket, and the smooth movements made Ma Xiaodong blush, and he was even more stunned in place at a loss.

"Take it, Brother Dongzi, renew Aunt Zhou's medicine, and it is also my wish for Aunt Zhou to recover as soon as possible."

"What's that...... That Yueyue, I ......" Ma Xiaodong stammered speechless.

Fortunately, Ma Xiaoyun thought about it on the side, "Sister Yueyue, then we will thank you, you see our family, the recent harvest is not good, and there are only those potatoes left in the corner, even if we borrow this money from you, I will pay you back when the potatoes are sold!" ”

Speaking of potatoes, Yan Yueyue suddenly remembered that she had more important things to do, she walked to the pile of potatoes, circled around twice, and observed carefully, this pile of potatoes is big, thin skin and thick meat, and the size is appropriate.

"Sell me this pile of potatoes!"

"Sister Yueyue, sell it to you? What are you doing here? ”

"You don't care, it's just the same, Brother Dongzi, can you help me make a baking oven?" The last time Yan Yueyue heard from the people in the village that Ma Xiaodong was a well-known master of manual work, this simple baking oven should not be very difficult for him.

Ma Xiaodong heard Yan Yueyue shouting at him, and then he came back to his senses, and when he heard the manual work, he suddenly came to his senses.

"That's not easy, wait!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Xiaodong disappeared and ran out of the door.

After a while, Ma Xiaodong came back with a lot of things in his hand and in his back basket.

Ma Xiaoyun saw his brother's posture, and quickly turned on the dim yellow light in the courtyard and shone it on the heads of several people, although the light was not too bright, but fortunately, in his yard, Ma Xiaodong still quickly placed the dry firewood, mud, branches, and a bunch of stones he picked up.

Ma Xiaodong looked left and right, and finally fell in love with the small open space next to the firewood house where Yan Yueyue lived, there was a tile roof on the top, and the mud wall was surrounded on three sides, and the other side was empty.

After looking at the place, Ma Xiaodong first lit a fire, surrounded it with stones, and then surrounded the fire with hot stones, pasted mud on it, pasted a layer of mud, stacked a layer of stones, and when the stones were stacked to 3 layers, they were stacked with fresh thick branches, leaving a little gap.

In the end, Ma Xiaodong pasted a layer of mud on the branches, leaving the height of the oven like a building, digging out a door where the branches were placed, and opening up the lower part of the fire to form air convection, making holes in the first layer and the highest layer, and finally sealing the top with mud.

After finishing this pile, Ma Xiaodong finally breathed a sigh of relief, patted the dust off his hands, and showed a happy smile on his dark face,

"That's it! Yueyue, this baking rack will dry for a few hours, and you will be ready to use it tomorrow morning when the mud is dry, and then I will teach you how to use it! ”

Yan Yueyue and Ma Xiaoyun watched Ma Xiaodong's operation without blinking an eye, and they felt that he could become a god.

"Brother Dongzi, with your technology, you can't rush to ask for any factory leaders!"

"Brother, why didn't I see you doing this before? It turns out that the words passed down by the people in the village are not nonsense! ”

The fancy praise of the two people made Ma Xiaodong's face flush with shame, scratching the back of his head, "Isn't that no one wants me, my education is also low, and I can't do physical work for others." ”

"What kind of physical work are you doing, we will do it together in the future," Yan Yueyue waved her hand, "I guarantee that your Zhou family will be the first 10,000 yuan household in the village!" ”

"Huh? Sister Yueyue, are you serious?! Ma Xiaoyun didn't believe her ears, she looked down at the mud lump she had just made on the ground, just by this? She Yan Yueyue is too daring to blow.

Yan Yueyue walked over confidently, and hugged Ma Xiaodong and Ma Xiaoyun's arms one by one.

"Don't worry, as long as you dare to believe me, the three of us will definitely succeed in starting a business!"

"Entrepreneurship??"

The brother and sister have often heard a lot of fresh words from Yan Yueyue's mouth recently, from not believing it at the beginning, to slowly feeling that what Yan Yueyue said is becoming more and more convincing, the two nodded firmly,

"Okay, of course we believe you, let's say, what are we going to do next?"

Yan Yueyue circled around the oven, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth,

"Brother Dongzi, in fact, I plan to use your potatoes to make potato chips, shredded potatoes, dried potatoes to sell, and ...... You have so much corn, and the quality is good, we can squeeze corn juice to sell, and the two products are sweet and spicy, which just makes up for the preferences of customers with different tastes. ”

Ma Xiaodong frowned after hearing this, and poured a basin of cold water on her.

"Potato chips have been made in our village for a long time, aren't they just dried and sold? Nothing out of the ordinary...... Besides, there are so many rats at night that they almost gnaw all the potato chips, who in the city would dare to ask for them?! ”
