"But the keel waterwheel hasn't been seen yet, so I don't know when it will be made."

In order to prevent the people around him from becoming suspicious, he must "grope" for a month or two for such a large tool, take the wrong path, and frown in distress before he can get the finished product out.

Moreover, the happiness of him making a keel car alone is definitely not as happy as taking a bath with Brother Zhu.

"Compared with the keel waterwheel, I want to buy a field and build a house."

"Don't you want to build a house?"

Li Qiao said, and the other hand also covered the two hands he held with Zhu Ge'er, and then, he gently scratched his thumb on Zhu Ge'er's palm twice.

Tao Zhu: "......"

The itching in his palm itched all the way to the bottom of his heart, and the corners of his mouth were about to rise up subconsciously.

But at this time, Li Dashan is still there!

He glared at Li Qiao without deterrence: "Okay, after the keel car is made, let's consider buying a first-class field, and now let's buy a first-class field." With the current income, I can almost buy more than ten acres before planting wheat. More than 10 acres of high-quality fields should be enough for us to eat. ”

Now I can earn seven taels of silver a day, one acre of high-quality land is thirty taels, and more than ten acres is four or five hundred taels.

"Okay, let's buy the best field." Li Qiao said.

So the matter was settled.

However, if you focus on buying land, you will have to postpone building a house.

"Brother Zhu'er, why don't we sell a recipe? In this way, buying land and building a house can be carried out simultaneously. The house is also very important. ”

"Not for sale."

Tao Zhu immediately shook his head: "It's impossible to sell a seller, and it will never be possible." ”

Although these snacks may be figured out, he still doesn't want to sell them.

The shopkeeper of the king did not have the idea of the prescription, and he did not mention the matter of the buyer, and looking at the behavior of the shopkeeper of the king, he would not buy the buyer's son.

The chefs in Mochizuki Tower are limited, and they can't do so many tricks, so it's better to buy from them and Zheng Butcher like this.

As for the shopkeeper Zhao, he didn't want to sell it to this person.

If you sell it to someone else, if this snack recipe is quickly imitated by another person, then isn't it cheating people?

"You can push back when you build a house, and now the house can be inhabited, and in winter."

Tao Zhu glanced at Li Dashan.

Seeing that Li Dashan was concentrating on grinding and contemplative, he coughed lightly, leaned closer to Li Qiao, and lowered his voice and said, "You can use a bath bucket in winter, let's wash together." ”

The bath bucket can also take a mandarin duck bath, although it is not as convenient as the shower, but the trouble is more troublesome, anyway, it is with this person.

Li Qiao: "......"

He looked at Tao Zhuhong's earlobes that were about to drip blood and his bright eyes, and couldn't help but sigh that his bamboo brother was really getting bolder.

In broad daylight, Li Dashan was still there, and he dared to talk to him about this.

"Okay, listen to you." He couldn't help laughing, and scratched his thumb on Tao Zhu's palm again: "I have to go into the house and change this robe on my body, you collected the clothes you washed yesterday, where did you put my blue shorts?" ”

"I'll come into the house and find it for you." Tao Zhu understood in seconds, and he stood up as he spoke.

Li Qiao also stood up, and the two of them held hands and entered the house.

When they came out again, both of them had red cheeks and moist lips, covered with a layer of water.

The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help laughing, but they still had to work, so one went into the kitchen to work, and the other into the shed.

I have to buy land and build a house, I have to work hard and earn more money!

To buy and sell land, you need to go to the yamen, pay the money with one hand, and get the title deed with the other, and the process is a bit troublesome.

So Li Qiao and Tao Zhu discussed, and borrowed sixty taels of silver from Zhuang Fengshou, plus thirty taels from his family, so that he could buy three acres of high-quality land first.

At this time, you can also plant another season of sweet potatoes and corn, first buy three acres of high-quality land and plant sweet potatoes and corn.

So, Li Qiao was going to the county seat again.

This trip will take a day, and there will be a lot of delays, so the husband and wife discussed it and decided to teach Li Dashan to make Shaqima and Da Ma Hua.

Relying only on the two of them to master the core technology, the snacks they can make every day are really limited, and they will tie all their time to snacks, and if they want to do something else, they have to work overtime to squeeze out the time for sleep.

So, it's time for a third person to also master the core technology.

Li Dashan's kid is indeed not clever enough, but he is honest and diligent enough, so Li Qiao and Tao Zhu let him participate.

Of course, the more work I do, the more wages I have, the more wages I have.

In the past, it was 30 wen a day to do odd work, but now from morning to night, the salary naturally has to be doubled, from 35 wen to 60 wen.

Li Dashan didn't expect Li Qiao to be willing to teach him the practices of Shaqima and Twist, and he didn't expect to increase his salary so much!

Make snacks, this he can.

But raising wages, this is not allowed.

Let him make snacks, it is trust him, and he is happy.

But the salary is really not necessary, he eats and drinks well at his uncle's place every day, and he has a lot of money every day just for the meal.

He had always felt that the work he did did not deserve such a high salary and food, but now that he could do more work and make his value worthy of the salary and food, he finally felt at ease.

Therefore, there is really no need to raise his salary, not only does he disagree, but his father and mother will not agree.

Regarding Li Dashan's words, Li Qiao naturally dismissed it.

He should be paid as much work as he does, and besides, this is the salary he pays his eldest nephew, and his eldest brother and sister-in-law can't control it.

Li Dashan is not Li Qiao's opponent at all, so he didn't have to say anything, Li Qiao finalized the matter in a few words.

Li Dashan: "......"

Uncle gave too much, only diligence can be reciprocated.

So, Li Qiao went to the county seat for a day and didn't come back until dark, and he not only brought back a field deed, but also sweet potato seedlings and corn seeds.

"Oh, Brother Zhu'er, you put it away, this is ninety taels of silver."

Li Qiao sat under the shelf, drinking sour plum soup while handing the deed to Tao Zhu.

Tao Zhu took it, and looked carefully at it by the light of the bean-like fire of the oil lamp, he already knew a lot of words, although it was still difficult to read books, but now whenever he touched words, he would take a closer look.

But soon, he looked up at Li Qiao, his face was full of shock: "Why is my name written on this?" ”

Although the light is not bright, he is not mistaken, the two words of pottery and bamboo on this field deed are under the official seal of the county magistrate, and the two words Li Qiao cannot be found on the whole paper!

"Because I want to write your name, you have been paying off your debts since you married me, and now you are in debt, and I have given you too little."

Li Qiao put down the bowl and said with a serious expression.

“……”

Tao Zhu stared at him for a few seconds, and his eyes slowly turned red.

This person obviously gave him so much, and pulled his coptis juice into the honey jar, but he still felt indebted to him.

There is no debt.

Not at all.

This man was so good that he didn't even know how to treat him better.

He lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "I know what you want to do with me." But didn't you say that every penny in our money box is earned by us together, and now you only write my name, what is the reason? ”

"Don't do that again."

Hearing this, Li Qiao couldn't help but move a small bench to his side, and then stretched out his hand to wrap his shoulder.

Looking down at his face, he saw that the droplets in his eyes were about to fall, and he couldn't help hugging him tightly: "Fool, sixty taels in this deed are debts, and you need to pay them back." ”

"I'll make you happy and moved by this, if I change people, I will definitely think I'm cunning, and I'll think I'm a scheming poor man."

"So someone else isn't your husband."

Tao Zhu sniffed and reached out to hug him.

Li Qiao: "......"

He couldn't help laughing: "Yes, only you are my husband." ”

This is the partner he has been looking for for for two lifetimes to find.

Thinking like this, he lowered his head to kiss the face of the person in his arms, although stupid, but stupid so that he liked it so much, he had to kiss it well.

The author has something to say:

It's late today, try to QAQ early tomorrow

Chapter 45: Li Dashan and Zheng Qianqian's plot accounts for half. Growing sweet potatoes and making fish balls are all caused by my uncle!

If you buy a field and a seedling, you have to plant it quickly, or the seedlings will die.

Li Qiao went to Chen Tiezhu and Wang Xiuying overnight and asked them if they would like to plant sweet potatoes tomorrow.

Chen Tiezhu's field is next to the Tao family's acres of barren land, When Tao Zhu worked alone before, Chen Tiezhu's family would occasionally give Tao Zhu a hand, such as helping to push the cart and give him saliva to drink.

There wasn't much help, but Tao Zhu always remembered that now Li Qiao was looking for someone to work, so he recommended Chen Tiezhu.

The work of planting sweet potatoes and corn is not heavy, Li Qiaokai's salary is high, 30 yuan a day, because he doesn't care about food, so there is an additional meal allowance of 3 yuan.

You must know that Wang Xiuying works in the dealer's house, and only the wheat harvest and autumn harvest can get this 30 yuan salary.

Now the villagers are busy with weeding work every day, which is not heavy, Chen Tiezhu's family can temporarily put down their own work to plant sweet potatoes and corn for Li Qiao, only three acres of land, and the work can be completed in two days.

Wang Xiuying's work at the banker's side is not heavy, she can take a day off, so she also agreed.

Before dawn the next day, Li Qiao took Chen Tiezhu's family of three and Wang Xiuying to Zhujia Village.

Tao Zhu sent Xiao Wu away, and also hurried over, his own field, he went for the first time, very excited, and very looking forward to it.

When Tao Zhu arrived, Li Qiao and several people were digging the ditch needed to plant sweet potatoes.
