He proudly handed out the wheat sickle: "This is the method that Xiao Qiao saw from the book, and it was made by Xiao Qiao himself!" ”

"Okay, okay, I know, this is what Li Qiao did."

Several villagers nodded perfunctorily.

But after catching the wheat sickle, everyone was very excited.

After mastering the trick, he exclaimed continuously, is there such an artifact in the world?

On the main road into the village, at noon it is when there are many people, and these people stay in the wheat field on the side of the road to cut wheat, which attracts a lot of attention.

It's natural to watch the excitement, and people can't help but ask what's going on.

I can't walk this question, wheat cutting artifact?

The villagers who are deeply affected by the pain of bending over to cut wheat pat their thighs, you must understand!

As a result, more and more people gathered here.

"This is what Xiao Qiao saw from the book, and he made it himself!"

Li Liang emphasized the origin of the wheat sickle many times, he waved his hands, his face was flushed, and his waist was straight.

He wanted the whole village to know that his younger brother Li Qiao was not a waste that the mud couldn't hold up the wall.

He wanted to announce to the whole village: his brother Li Qiao's book was not read in vain!

Hey.

The author has something to say:

Chapter 09: Come to Him to Be a Wheat Sickle and Teach Him for Free!

Li Qiao's fish sales are still going smoothly today.

Low price, freshness, full of scales, and willingness to erase no ink, he has all the advantages that customers expect, so he sold out early.

After the sale, he did not rush back to the village, but pushed the cart around the county, looking for some business opportunities.

Selling fish is actually making a good profit, but it is not a long-term solution, because he found that there are fewer fish in this section of the river in Sanliu Village.

If he wanted to catch enough 300 catties of fish, he took longer than a few days ago.

According to this trend, he will not be able to sell this fish for long.

But now he not only owes gambling debts, but also has to save for a dowry, and he also has to build a house, which is rough and rough, and he will have to pay two hundred taels of silver.

The name Pingcheng is mediocre, but there are two relatively lively commercial streets in the county, and there are many shops on both sides of the street, where you can eat, drink, and play, and there are not a few customers who come and go.

Li Qiao observed these shops one by one, and combined with his current actual situation, a lot of ideas came to his mind.

However, he was a little hesitant to think about the way forward.

He didn't stay in the county for long, bought a pound of mung bean cake, and he set foot on the way home.

However, as soon as he entered the boundary of Sanliu Village, he was stopped by Zhang Xiuhua.

Zhang Xiuhua's wheat field is next to the road into the village, and she has been waiting for Li Qiao.

"Li Qiao!" She stared at Li Qiao's eyes with fiery eyes, and her tone was also affectionate: "The wheat sickle you made for your eldest brother, can you make a few for your aunt's family?" My aunt gives you money and doesn't let you work in vain! ”

“…… Yes? ”

Li Qiao was stunned.

Zhang Xiuhua hurriedly retold Li Liang's show-off at noon, and Li Qiao was full of black lines when she listened.

"Alas! My aunt knows that this will delay you from selling fish, after all, even if your aunt gives money, it will definitely not earn as much as you sell fish. ”

Although Zhang Xiuhua doesn't know how much money Li Qiao earns, looking at Li Qiao's popularity of selling fish in the village on the first day, and the trench that can give Li Liang two big sickles in just a few days, this shows that Li Qiao can make money selling fish.

"But my aunt really can't help it, your uncle's waist is not good, he can't stand and sit for a long time, and he can't count on the heavy work of cutting wheat at all."

"Now the strong laborers in the family are me, Dazhu, and Brother Qiu."

"Look at it, Brother Qiu'er is a little brother, he was supposed to cook and feed the chickens at home, but he came to cut wheat under the sun, and his good little face was sunburned, auntie, I'm really worried that he won't be able to marry in the future!"

Zhang Xiuhua said and pointed to Brother Qiu, who was carrying a basket to pick up ears of wheat.

Brother Qiu is slender and thin, looking at the past from the back, he is similar to a woman, which is very in line with the aesthetics of people in this world.

But on a June day, the sun is scorching, and if you work in the wheat field like this every day, then Brother Qiu'er's face will definitely be tanned a little.

Li Qiao: "......"

He glanced at Brother Qiu and nodded, "Okay." ”

For the sake of Zhang Xiuhua being his first customer, and it didn't take him much time to do this, he was so busy that he helped.

"Auntie, the sickle alone costs 500 wen, plus the nails used, it must be 510 wen. The required wood can be cut up the mountain, so you give me the money for the sickle and nails, and you don't have to pay for the labor. ”

"What about such a big sickle, it's worth five hundred wen. But the aunt must give it to you, because not only the aunt wants to find you, but other people in the village also want to find you to do this, if you don't take the money from the aunt, then the others will definitely not be happy to know it. ”

"My aunt has already made you suffer, how can I take advantage of you again, as much as you want, you must collect the manual fee."

Zhang Xiuhua is very persistent.

But Li Qiao was stunned: "Other people are also looking for me to make wheat sickles?" ”

"Not really! You don't have to bend down to cut wheat faster, who doesn't feel excited? ”

Li Qiao: "......"

"Ahem, Xiao Qiao, if you don't want to, the big guy will definitely not be reluctant. Doing this delays you from selling fish, everyone can understand. ”

Zhang Xiuhua was a little weak-hearted.

After Li Qiao agreed to make her a wheat sickle, she told her that other people also wanted him to help make a wheat sickle, and she was worried that Li Qiao now knew the truth and regretted it in order to avoid trouble.

Li Qiao looked at Zhang Xiuhua's face and smiled lightly: "Auntie, since I agreed to you, then I will definitely do it." As for the rest of the folks, I think. ”

When Zhang Xiuhua heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Little buckwheat, you must charge the manual fee! Also, if there is anything to do in the future, just look for Dazhu, although he is illiterate, but he is honest and has great strength, you are welcome, if there is any heavy work to find him, look for him! ”

"Okay." Li Qiao smiled and said a few more words about making wheat sickles, and then pushed the cart and continued to walk towards the village.

He didn't go far when another villager stopped him and wanted him to help make wheat sickles.

Some bluntly said that they would give him a manual fee and would not let him do day work.

But some of them smiled, but they didn't mention the manual fee.

Either way, Li Qiao replied with a smile:

He had to think about it.

Soon arrived at home, and now the weeds in the small yard have been pulled out by him, and although the whole courtyard is still dilapidated, it is a little more popular.

He went into the hall and prepared to take out the wheat from the first day's fish sales and spread it out to dry.

These wheat are all newly harvested wheat this year, which has not yet been sun-dried, and has a lot of moisture, and if it has been covered in a sack, it will become moldy.

After spreading the wheat, he carried a machete as a shovel and loosened the soil in the northwest corner of the small courtyard, ready to plant some vegetables.

There is no reason to buy vegetables to eat all the time in the countryside, and it is enough for him to grow a little.

was busy working, and the door of the small courtyard was pushed open with a "bang".

A little daughter-in-law with hanging eyebrows rushed in.

She swept her eyes and found Li Qiao squatting by the wall to loosen the soil, and when she crossed her hands on her hips, she asked: "Li Qiao, you gave your eldest brother two wheat sickles, why don't you give your eldest brother two handfuls as well?!" ”

"When the thugs of the gambling house came, your eldest brother had a quarrel with the whole family, so he had to lend you money! If he hadn't reached out, you'd only have one leg left right now! ”

"It's sister-in-law." Li Qiao got up with a smile and walked towards Han Xiaoyan.

This is the daughter-in-law of Ge Li Dazhong, the lobby of the original third uncle's house.

On that day, Li Dazhong had to lend the original silver, and she scratched and scratched Li Dazhong, so that the blood marks on Li Dazhong's face hung for half a month.

"Since you call me sister-in-law, then bring me the wheat sickle that my family deserves!" Han Xiaoyan snorted coldly and stretched out his hand towards Li Qiao.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I didn't know if Mai Sickle was good or not, so I only hit two. Now that I'm sure I'm done, I'll go to the blacksmith today and get five more. ”

"Everyone who borrowed my money at the beginning has it."

"However, I don't have much money, so you can only have one family of five."

"Hmph, you've only been selling fish for a few days, and you can catch so many wheat sickles, it seems that you really make a lot of money selling fish."

"How much silver does a wheat sickle cost? You make two more for my house. ”

"One costs five hundred wen."

"Five hundred wen! You're robbing money, right? Han Xiaoyan exclaimed.

"If my sister-in-law doesn't believe me, you can go to the county blacksmith shop and ask." Li Qiao said good-naturedly.

"I must ask your eldest brother to go to the county seat to ask in person. You do it first, and when it's done, you'll get silver. ”

Han Xiaoyan threw down these words and left in a hurry.

Li Qiao walked over and closed the courtyard door, and continued to loosen the soil and grow vegetables.

After a while, someone came to the door.

There are villagers in the same village, as well as relatives of the original body, such as Li Chunsheng, and there is also the original biological second brother Li Huang.

Li Huang dislikes Li's father and Li's mother for being partial to the original son, and has never had anything to do with the original body.

When the thugs from the gambling house came, even though Li Liang said that he was dry, Li Huang didn't take out a copper plate.

However, now that he learned that Li Qiao could make wheat sickle, Li Huang came to the door.

Moreover, Li Huang was still reluctant to give money, so he moved out of Li's father and mother's migraine for the original body for many years, and asked Li Qiaobai to make him three.
