The money from the sale of grain was strung together one by one, and it was neatly placed.

It wasn't until midnight that it was over.

"A total of 125 taels and 640 yuan" Yu Dahai handed the recorded account book to Bai Xia and slapped his shoulder, but he was tired.

"Well, let's rest first."

More than 100 taels of silver, almost sold more than 4,000 catties of grain, evenly distributed to every household, at most more than 100 catties of grain.

In today's villages, each family is mostly three or four generations in the same house, paying attention to having many children and blessings, and there is no separation.

There are more than a dozen people in a family, and a hundred catties of grain is just for them to eat for an extra month.

Bai Xia accepted the silver money, and watched the silver money in the transformation pool grow, and his heart was a little more stable.

It's just that this time the grain is only sold for one day, so it is not good to sell more, and it is not suitable to sell more grain until the winter is over this year.

Everyone was tired of the day, and when they finished keeping their books, they collected their money and rested.

The income from selling grain is a part, but it can't be sold in a big way, which makes Bai Xia earn a lot of money.

The days passed day by day, turning over September and October, and coming to November.

Bai Xia collects grasshoppers woven by the children in the village every day, as well as some other gadgets, and a lot of income comes in every day.

After the people in the village saw that the children could make money, many women also learned to make money, which made Bai Xia's silver more and more.

The little pig Chunhua's sister-in-law at home has been raised very well, and she has grown up and gained a lot of weight with the naked eye.

If you feed it better, maybe you can kill pigs and eat meat during the New Year.

The radish seedlings in the field jumped out again, and the roots had begun to grow stems.

At the beginning of November, the loom sent by Li Xiuyuan arrived.

The cotton Jinxi and Yunshu bought during this period were picked up and twisted into cotton silk to dry for later use.

As soon as the loom arrived, the spinning began.

This job, Bai Xia won't, Jin Xi won't either, only the Cloud Book Club.

There are many women in Liu Yunzhai, and many of the clothes they wear are made of cloth woven by themselves, so the life of the big guy is quite good.

In Liu Yunzhai, Bai Xia can also save silver, but in the end, there is an oversupply, which is easy to cause prices to rise.

And the population base is there, no matter how much food is sold, there will always be a time when it will be enough.

Unlike here, there are hundreds of surrounding villages and towns, and there are fewer than a dozen households and hundreds of people in a village, and there are more than a thousand people.

Yunshu stepped on the machine, and the little man sat in front of the loom all day long, busy before and after.

Bai Xia and Jinxi stared at the pigsty and the chicken coop.

It is worth mentioning that after November, the purchased chickens finally laid their first egg after raising them for more than a month, and it was still an egg that could hatch chicks.

Bai Xia tried to put it in the transformation pool and took it out again, but the egg still hadn't changed, but it was hard to say whether the chicks could hatch or not.

The two chickens were well fed, and then they had one egg a day, and when they laid twenty days or so, the hens stopped laying eggs.

Start hugging the nest.

Bai Xia has to go to see it every day.

The time is like this, and it slowly comes to December.

Yunshu weaved the first cloth that came to Dou'er Village, an off-white cotton cloth, the color is not very good-looking, but the warp and weft are fine, which is much better than the coarse linen.

Bai Xia took the cloth and looked at it for a long time.

One more glance at the conversion pool.

The silver money has been saved to more than one hundred and fifty taels.

A loom costs thirty taels of silver.

A pound of cotton costs half a penny.

But a piece of cotton cloth is worth three taels of silver, and it can make two clothes for adults.

Yunshu is small, weaving is only good, not skilled, it took a month to weave, if you let a skilled woman to weave, at most five days can produce a horse.

This also has to do with the speed of the loom.

Now the slowest loom is used, the horizontal type.

She didn't know anything about machinery, but she had only vaguely heard that there seemed to be a Jenny spinning machine or something, which was spinning vertically, faster than this.

Touching the cotton cloth in hand, Bai Xia made a simple plan, and took Yunshu to find the village chief's daughter-in-law.

She plans to rent out the machinery and provide cotton, which will be processed by the people of the village.

For each horse processed, fifty cents were given.

Hearing that there was money to be made again, the village chief's daughter-in-law immediately responded and asked what conditions were needed to rent this loom, how to distribute cotton, and how to pay cotton cloth.

These Baixia have all thought about it, choose five first, rent five looms, each family will give a pound of cotton, and a pound of cotton will weave a piece of cloth, if there is more, you can use it for your own use.

In other words, if their skills are better, they can weave more fabric with less material, and the part that is woven is their own.

In addition, for each horse weaved, there was a salary of fifty wen.

It's just that the five families to be selected must have good character, be honest and reliable, and those who steal and cheat will never work.

After the five families were selected, they had to send one of them to be in charge of this work, and the family could only produce one person, and Yunshu would train them and teach them to weave.

After learning it, you can take the machine back and spin it at home.

After they learn, they can hand over the technology to their families, Bai Xia here is a pound of cotton to harvest a piece of cloth, the first time the cotton woven cloth can be settled after handing in, but every time the salary is settled, it will be pressed eighty percent as rent, until the rent is paid, will pay all the wages.

The rent is 100 wen a month.

If you are diligent, you can weave three pieces of cloth and settle the rent.

After listening to Bai Xia's request for weaving, the village chief's daughter-in-law immediately booked a place for her second daughter-in-law, and then went to the village to find other acquaintances.

The patriarch's family should arrange one.

Other people who are familiar with the village chief are also arranged.

The five families were quickly assembled.

Hearing that there was money to be made by doing this, the village was boiling again.

I heard that Bai Xia only chose five families, but he was not selected, so he went to the village chief's house to make trouble, but he was persuaded by the village chief's daughter-in-law to go back.

Say that they just try it first, and if they do it well, every family has a chance.

And to do this, you have to pay a rent of 100 yuan, although it is deducted from the salary, but in the end, the money will be deducted, and everyone will wait and see.

The selected people soon went to Bai Xia's house for training, and Yunshu taught them.

Although she was only six years old, she was a master in front of a group of women who had never knitted, and no one dared to look down on her.

Ten days later, under the guidance of Yunshu, the five women all weaved the first piece of cloth and handed it over to Bai Xia, and after acceptance, it was determined that they had met the standards for receiving orders, so each family signed the deed and sent the machine and cotton.

The date of handing over the cloth is ten days a horse, if you have the ability and weave fast, you can also hand in after weaving a horse.

In the winter, everyone is already a cat at home, and after having a loom, there is not only something to do, but also money to make, so everyone is very serious.

When it came to study, they spent ten days.

When it was time to really start weaving, I worked day and night, and it only took five days for someone to weave the first piece of cloth, and then I went to Baixia to hand it in and get the first salary.
