Chapter Eighty-Five: Grinding Beans
Ning Ning originally wanted to rush to the courtyard to tell everyone about the harvest of this trip to Lin'an County and the things they brought back, but as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw a large group of young people standing in their yard and smiling at herself. Children are very sensitive, at least Ning Ning hugged Wushan tightly all of a sudden.
I always feel that these uncles and uncles look at me a little strangely, not as pure kindness as before.
Ning Ning felt very much, feeling Ning Ning's body in his arms tense up instantly, Wu Shan's eyes were sharp, and the eyes of those people in Li Zheng were a little unkind. Li Zheng naturally found out that he was really wronged in his heart, so he hurriedly stopped the old men behind him who still wanted to move forward, showed a smiling face, and stretched out his hands.
"Ning Ning, we haven't seen each other for two or three days, you guys just went to the county seat?"
Ning Ning had calmed down at this time, and found that the person who stretched out his hand to hug him was no stranger, so he opened his little hand very generously and greeted this embrace.
Of course, Ning Ning's mouth was still very sweet, she looked at these uncles with a smile, and asked the question that all the You family members present wanted to know the most.
"Uncle Lizheng, is there something wrong with you? Why don't you go in and say it? ”
Li Zheng laughed, then saluted Wushan, and only opened his mouth with a smile after everyone entered the courtyard.
"I'm here today to ask you for something. Ning Ning still remembers the incident I told you before? ”
"I remember, I just came back this time and wanted to ask you for help, I have a business I want to ask you."
Li Zheng really didn't expect that he didn't say anything, and Ning Ning told him such an important thing. I couldn't help but be a little moved. At this time, not only him, but even the villagers of Qingshui Village who came with him couldn't control their excitement, but they still had some doubts, since the You family had a profitable business, why didn't they do it themselves? Instead found yourself?
Things were going so well that they couldn't help but have some doubts. At this time, You Sifang strode in with the things that Mrs. Song had found for them, and as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he saw so many old and young masters, and he was a little dazed. He even glanced back, a little suspicious that this was his home, and of course, the others felt a little embarrassed to see him do this.
It was Ning Ning who broke this embarrassment.
"Dad, come on! Since Uncle Lizheng and they are here, they don't need to make another trip! ”
In fact, at this time, You Sifang didn't know what his daughter was going to get, but he still came over very cooperatively. In fact, what Ning Ning wanted the villagers of Qingshui Village to do was not too secret. I just want them to help grind the beans.
It can't be helped, all the products she wants to make after that have to go through this process. If there is only one family of themselves, only this one graphite, even if they keep grinding day and night, it is impossible to get too much. When this business really grows, even if the whole village goes into battle, it is estimated that it will not be enough. Since you always have to ask for help from others, why don't you find the villagers of Qingshui Village who are closer to you? If you want to bypass the villagers of Qingshui Village, who live next to it, and find someone else to help, it is simply impossible.
And the procedure of grinding beans is really tiring. At this time, most of the villagers in Qingshui Village grinded by themselves, because they had no livestock, and even if they did, they were reluctant to grind day and night. Ning Ning didn't want her family to continue doing this kind of hard work. Isn't that the best of both worlds?
It's just that Ning Ning still has to pick this candidate. After a short exchange, Li Zheng still had a few young adults left here, and although the people who left were a little dissatisfied, Li Zheng had already promised them that they would definitely look for them if they needed more help after they learned.
Everyone is from the same village, and they are not worried about Lizheng lying, so although they are a little reluctant, they still leave, after all, they can understand. To do this business, the You family must choose someone they can trust and be hard-working, down-to-earth and capable. If they find those who are cheating and cheating, they will kick those people out without the You family saying it themselves. In these years, the peasant family has always been very simple. Since ancient times, they have believed that if you don't work, you can't eat.
No matter how fertile the land is, no matter how good the seeds are, if you don't sow seeds, cultivate and weed, how can there be a harvest?
Looking at the few adults left in his yard, Ning Ning took them to the stone mill that was placed aside. The Youjia family is young and strong, and the strength is also great, this stone mill is the big stone they found on the mountain through the guidance of Wushan, and it is made after transporting it down, which is big and easy to use.
At this time, Dabao Erbao and Xiaobei had already worked together to bring out a bucket of beans that had been soaked overnight, and they were already quite full. You Sifang, who had already done this job, simply didn't need to do it, and began to grind the beans with his eldest son.
The chubby beans were quickly crushed into a white mess, and fell down the passage that had been made long ago into the vat below. The father and son of the You family are tall and strong, and they have enough strength, and they got a small half bucket after a while.
They stood on the side and stared at the scene tightly, not daring to miss the slightest detail, but they couldn't help but hesitate when they watched. The process seems familiar, isn't that what they do when they grind grain? After grinding the beans, what can this white thing do?
They were naturally quite curious in their hearts, but at this time, the You family did not speak, and it was inconvenient for them to speak, so they could only forget it.
looked at the bucket and felt that the water level was almost there, Ning Ning stopped, and then raised his face and said very seriously.
"A few uncles and uncles, did you see that just now?"
Rizheng nodded hesitantly. The action of grinding beans is not difficult, and you can master it just by watching it once. But he wondered, could it be that what Ning Ning asked them to do was just grind beans? There are so many households in their Qingshui Village, even if there are only three or two households, the beans ground are enough for the Ning Ning family to eat for several days, right? What's the use of getting so many beans?
He thought so and said so, Ning Ning just laughed after hearing it.
"Uncle Lizheng, don't worry, as long as you can grind out the soy milk and ensure that it is absolutely fresh and clean, there will definitely be a steady stream of business in the future."
Seeing that Li Zheng and the others still didn't believe it, Ning Ning rolled his eyes and pulled up the banner for himself.
"I don't hide it from a few uncles, this business is done with Mrs. Song in the city. Uncle Lizheng should know Mrs. Song, her business is very big, and she is the richest businessman in Lin'an City. Even if you don't believe me, you have to believe Mrs. Song, right? ”
