"If it was really as hard as it was when I was selling fish to earn money, maybe I wouldn't be so generous."

Moreover, in the last days, he had heard countless people say that if he could go back to the end times, then he would inform the state anyway, so that he could concentrate all his efforts on fighting the end times.

How can a man in the last days suppose, and now that he is facing such a situation, he already knows that there will be a great drought that will not even provide water for his daily life?

Anyway, it was close, and he came over to do his best, no matter whether this small amount of power could be used or not, at least he was at ease.

When Tao Zhu heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at the bright moon above his head, and his face was full of yearning: "It would be nice if I could go with you to take a look at your last life." ”

Of course, it has to be before the end times.

What a wonderful world it is, a journey of thousands of miles, and it can be reached in an hour.

All kinds of recipes don't need money, just put them on the network.

And it's amazing that everybody can be fed, and with a population of more than a billion people, that's amazing.

“…… Go back tonight and dream well, maybe there will be a dream. ”

Li Qiao said, threw the last water balloon into Li Erhe, quickly released the water in the water balloon, and then led Tao Zhu back to the inn.

It's not too early, and if you don't go back to the county seat, the gate will be closed.

In this way, Li Qiao and his party walked all the way and threw water balloons, and spent a whole month looking at their four big rivers.

I don't know if it's because the time hasn't come or because the place is wrong, or if the water balloon of Li Qiao has played a role, although the place they traveled in is drought, they have not encountered a situation where they can't even guarantee water for their daily life.

I have not heard of any such extreme drought anywhere.

When I returned to Shengjing, the hot summer had passed.

On the second day of returning to Shengjing, a rain fell, not only in Shengjing, but also in the entire Jibei Province.

Before going to bed at night, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, Tao Zhu couldn't help but say: "In my opinion, it is the river we dug and your water balloon that have played a role, so much surface water fights drought, then it saves groundwater." ”

"If the groundwater level does not drop, then there will be no shortage of water in the ditches and wells, so that the extreme drought that Gao Zhiyuan said will not come."

After that, he turned over in Li Qiao's arms, and Li Qiao changed the posture of holding him from behind to lying facing each other: "Did you say?" ”

Li Qiao looked at his clear eyes, stretched out his hand and fished him back into his arms: "I hope so." ”

"I think that's it."

Tao Zhu's tone was firm.

Such a major drought should have been solved by the Li family river and the water balloon of Li buckwheat.

"Wait until next year, if there is no major drought next year, it will be as you said." Li Qiao patted him on the back as she spoke: "Sleep, if it doesn't rain tomorrow, you have to lead them to the shop." ”

Tao Zhu closed his eyes when he heard this, but he couldn't help but start praying in his heart, don't come to the great drought, otherwise the hardest thing is Li Qiao.

Chapter 262: Sheng Hong decides to go on patrol

The next day, it was still drizzling.

The heat was driven away by the rain, and the temperature was very comfortable when wearing only a summer shirt.

Li Xiaorui, Li Changfeng, Li Yunfan, the three little guys got up early in the morning, not only folded their small futon into tofu blocks, but also actively ate when eating, holding a small bowl in one hand and grabbing chopsticks in the other hand to pick up rice in their mouths, not picky eaters at all.

After the little belly bulged, the three of them put down the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at Tao Zhu and Li Dashan in unison.

They're full of food and drink, and they're ready to go to the shop!

Tao Zhu was stared at by their hot eyes, and quickly settled breakfast, braved the light rain and rode the carriage to the hot pot shop.

In the summer, the Li family's hot pot shop changed to cold pot skewers and skewers of incense, and diners chose which one they wanted to eat according to their tastes.

As soon as Li Dashan arrived at the shop, he went straight to the back kitchen to check the hygiene.

Those who can enter the Li family's shop to consume are either rich or expensive, and the business of this kind of person can taste average, but they must not be disgusted by the health condition.

Therefore, the most important thing for the Li family to sell is hygiene.

The three little ones followed behind Li Dashan, holding a crusty booklet in one hand and charcoal in the other, ready to record what they saw in the day.

Watching Li Dashan inspect the hygiene, the three of them observed carefully, and their little faces were full of confidence.

They will also be eh~

Looking at Li Dashan to check the freshness of vegetables and meat, they opened their eyes wide, This belongs to the blind spot of knowledge, and they can't tell the freshness of meat.

If you don't understand, you will humbly ask for advice.

Later, he followed Li Dashan to help prepare dipping sauces and small ingredients, the bottom of the Li family's pot was boiled elsewhere, but the dipping sauces and small ingredients were made by the Li family's guys in the shop, although Li Dashan was Li Qiao's nephew, he would also help.

Soon, the shop opened, diners entered the shop to consume, and Li Dashan began to get really busy.

He has to keep an eye on the food served in the back kitchen, and he also has to watch the reaction of the diners - although the Li family shop has many overlord terms, the service attitude is excellent.

When I'm busy with the meal, I'll look at the account book a few times, and if any other ingredients are out of stock, I also urge people to make up for them quickly.

In short, at the end of the day, Li Dashan was busy.

The three little ones followed for a day.

Waiting to sit in the carriage home, the three little guys who had always been very energetic were exhausted, they leaned on the arms of Tao Zhu and Li Dashan, and before they returned to the house, they fell asleep.

In fact, Li Dashan's daily busy work does not need him to do it himself, Li Qiao can arrange these tedious tasks to others.

But Li Dashan disagreed.

Li Dashan didn't feel tired of these tasks at all, compared to planting crops in the past, it was not tiring at all.

Besides, it doesn't matter if it's a hygiene issue, the customer's real reaction, or the ledger?

Each of them counts!

The hot pot shop is an important pillar of the Li family's business, and he can only rest assured if he keeps an eye on it in person.

After Li Xiaorui, Li Changfeng, and Li Yunfan felt the busyness of Li Dashan, they had a clearer understanding of making money.

It's really hard to make money.

The business in the shop is so good, they are busy from morning to afternoon before they can sit down and rest for a while, and their legs are sore!

What's even more terrifying is that they are busy all day, and their wages are only one or two pieces of silver!

One or two, only one or two!

They are paid according to Li Dashan's wage standard, Li Dashan, Li Ershan, Li Shu and others, because they live in Shengjing, so their wages are lower than Li Chuntao, Li Chunsheng and others in Sanliu Village, only 30 taels of silver a month.

Thirty taels are averaged for each day, and the wages of that day are one tael of silver.

With their wages, they can't afford to buy a keel waterwheel, let alone a bamboo pipe.

Moreover, because the waterwheel and bamboo pipe donated to the old man in Jibei Province were on credit, they only had time to grasp the one or two silver wages they earned, and then they were taken away by Tao Zhu.

Look at the empty paws, the three of you look at me, I look at you, and then sighed in unison.

With such an identity, it is so difficult for them to earn a tael of silver, let alone the destitute.

The sweet potatoes that farmers have worked so hard to grow are only two pennies a catty!

Moreover, when they were in the shop yesterday, they saw a widow who had a broken arm and was in charge of lighting the fire, and the widow's salary for a month was 2,800 yuan.

Alas.

It's not easy for the people at the bottom.

The account was not paid, the three little guys continued to work in the shop, and when the silver owed to Li Qiao was repaid, while the martial arts class was in the afternoon, the three of them climbed up the wall and talked about the difficult part-time job process with Sheng Shiyu, who was also taking a martial arts class.

Sheng Shiyu was quite surprised, the experience of these three younger brothers was really rich.

However, the three younger brothers are actually very good, they earned a keel waterwheel at a young age, he is older than the three of them, but he has not earned a penny.

As an elder brother, how can you lose to three younger brothers.

When the martial arts class was over, he found his father and said that he wanted to earn money with his own strength, and as for which way to earn it, he had already thought about it.

He can sell calligraphy works.

Crops can also be grown.

There is no need to deliberately mark it as his work, it can be sold for a few dollars, as for farming, his grandfather has always attached great importance to the food problem, and in recent years, the scientific examination questions have also forced students all over the world to learn to grow crops.

If he wants to please his imperial grandfather, let alone become a little expert in farming, at least he must actually operate it, and he can't just stay on his lips.

He didn't plant anything special, just corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes and other high-yielding ones, and only planted half an acre.

After the harvest, it doesn't matter whether it is taken out to sell or sent to the palace for his imperial grandfather to taste, it is excellent.

Sheng Shiyu's request, the eldest prince gladly agreed.

But no, if you want to please his father, you must be down-to-earth, not just lip service.

The days passed, and soon the autumn harvest arrived.

The rain after Li Qiao and his entourage returned to Beijing greatly alleviated the drought in Jibei Province.

However, more than half of the crops in northern province were not irrigated in time when the rain was most needed, so the yield of this part of the crops was somewhat reduced.

Sheng Hong is quite calm, and he is used to the small scene.

Oh my God, I haven't really had the wind and rain.

He handed over the matter of autumn grain to the household department, and he was thinking about the arrangements for next year.

A few days ago, he received a letter from Sheng Jun from Jiangnan, in which Sheng Jun truthfully described the current situation in Jiangnan without any exaggeration.

But he was hooked and wanted to go to Jiangnan.

He wanted to see the red and willow green flowers in the south of the Yangtze River, and the smoke and rain were hazy.

It's not a whim, it's that he's a little bored.

Although he can receive excerpts from all over the world every day, and can know the latest news from other places, there is nothing new under the sun, and he has been an emperor for almost 20 years, and he has come and gone just like that, which can be summed up as the evil and good of human nature, regardless of whether it is evil or good, he is a little tired of seeing it.

No matter how vicious and touching the incident is, it can't arouse his emotions anymore.

In recent years, he has not even bothered to write small essays.

In Shengjing, he couldn't find anything fresh and interesting for him, so he moved his mind to leave Beijing.
