Chapter 127: Buying Pigs and Dogs
Xu Ling also knew that his father-in-law Gu Litian was measured, and no matter how good the relationship between them was, it would always be difficult to save face even if they ate and took it, let alone a long-term solution.
He hurriedly said to Gu Litian again: "Dad, I still have something I want to trouble you, didn't I ask Sun Baoyao to find me some wasteland?" When I left home, there was no one to farm, and I wanted to ask if anyone would be willing to farm for me, and I would collect some rent for one acre of land, so as not to be wasted. ”
"I don't know anything about these things, that is, I find tenants in the future, I am often not at home, and I have to find someone who knows how to suppress them, do you want to help the staff officers?"
Xu Ling put his figure very low, he had already thought about it, he didn't know what the world would be like in the future, he could not panic if he had food in his hand, business was business, and the granary at home could not catch fire, so he had to plant more.
It's a hassle to find someone you trust to manage, but fortunately, there is Gu Litian, an old man.
The old man is old-fashioned, and he has a lot of research on farming, who is the character of the township neighbors, and how to interact with the villagers in the township, he has a scale in his heart.
It is most suitable for Gu Litian to do this housekeeping work.
Gu Litian heard that his son-in-law was looking for something for him to do, and he felt comfortable but couldn't speak.
When you open your mouth, you will be angry: "You can get those wastelands first!" Otherwise, if your vegetable garden is so big, you still need to look for me to show you? ”
Xu Ling smiled, he was not angry, and took the rice in his mouth, "I've eaten well, Dad, let's go buy meat first, and you can tell me about Chen Sheng and Chen Ze brothers on the way." ”
Saying that, Gu Litian got up and walked out with Xu Ling, and Xu hurriedly caught up, "Ah Ling, you just eat so much?" ”
"No more! Keep your stomach and eat well at noon, Xu Ping, remember to call Brother Daliang to come over, and say that we will eat honey roast lamb leg at noon! ”
"Honey roast leg of lamb?" Fan Shiqing repeated, only to feel that his saliva was about to drip down.
As soon as Xu Ling came back, the food at home skyrocketed, he really knew how to eat!
In the cold winter, if you can sit in front of the fire and eat barbecue, how cool it would be!
Gu Litian couldn't stop shaking his head, "You mixed up some hard-earned money, and it all fell into your mouth!" ”
In the past, there was no shortage of chickens and dogs, just for the stuttering.
Xu Ling smiled scoundrelly.
The two sons-in-law walked towards the butcher's butcher's stall, chatting about the Chen family as they walked on the road.
Gu Litian knew that Xu Ling wanted to find these two brothers as tenants, thought for a moment, nodded and said: "This idea is good, these two are diligent in their hands and feet, but their lives are a little harder, there is no land in our village, and clearing the wasteland can exhaust people to death." ”
"Every time before and after farming, they would go far away, and I heard that they were going to the north to be wheat customers."
Some people lack manpower at home, and when they are too busy to farm, they have to call in for foreign help. There will be people who have a lot of land and few people who will be used as wheat customers for people, and they will carry a cloth bag on their backs and go far away to cut wheat for others, just to exchange some money for food.
When the two brothers of the Chen family were kicked out, one fifteen and one thirteen, it was the age when half of the eldest son starved to death of Lao Tzu, but they were well educated by Widow Chen, and they would rather die of exhaustion than never do anything to lose their conscience.
Xu Ling touched his nose and always felt that his father-in-law was insinuating about himself.
Hearing Gu Litian say so many good things about the Chen family brothers, Xu Ling also felt that these two people were credible.
Just wait for the field to be bought, and then try to contact the two brothers.
When he arrived at Sun Butcher's meat stall and saw Xu Ling, Sun Butcher was very happy.
He hasn't forgotten Xu Ling's words, he wants to buy a big fat pig a year ago!
"Brother Xu! You've come back from making a fortune from outside? ”
"Where, make some hard-earned money, Brother Sun, the pig ...... you asked you to show me last time"
"Don't worry! I've got someone to keep it for you! I'll show you there! ”
Sun Butcher stuck a sharp knife to cut meat on the wooden anvil, and told him that the woman looked at the stall, his woman was the same size as him, with a big waist and a round waist, Xu Ling saw that she could pick up half a pig by gritting her teeth, in short, she was also a woman who worked neatly.
The pig that Sun butcher showed Xu Lingxiang was raised by his father-in-law's family.
"I didn't sell his pigs to you because he was my father-in-law, you go to a few villages near us to inquire, who has the best pigs within a radius of ten miles, nine times out of ten will say that it is my father-in-law He Dajia!"
Gu Litian nodded on the side, this is true.
He Dajia's ancestors raised pigs, and when he was a child, he ate pork and ate it was He Dajia's father who raised it.
Xu Ling saw that Gu Litian said this, so he followed to take a look.
When he arrived at He Dajia's house, his family, like Xu Ling's family, was far away from the people in the village, and lived alone near a small river ditch, but Xu Ling was a dilapidated house that the poor people didn't want, but the He family was because he wanted to raise pigs.
Before he got closer, he heard the sound of a pig and smelled the smell of pig manure.
As for the small ditch, it might as well be called a dung ditch, it stinks.
It was full of dead branches and leaves, like a black swamp.
Xu Ling hesitated at this time, wouldn't the pigs of the He family really make swine fever?
Gu Litian on the side said: "Such a good fertilizer, it must be good to use it to fertilize the land." ”
"Of course, you don't know, every year there are people who want to ask my father-in-law to buy this pig dung!"
Sun Butcher smiled, his father-in-law He Dajia is a large pig farmer within a radius of ten miles, and he can earn a lot of silver just by selling pig manure every year.
His father-in-law had money in his family, married a wife, took two concubines, and had many children, including five sons and seven daughters.
How many people are staring at the daughter of the He family, he looked good when he was young, and he could talk and do things, so he was looked at by his own daughter-in-law, and since then he has taken the road of selling pork, and the days have become more and more prosperous.
After crossing the small river ditch and going to the pig farm of the He family, Xu Lingcai found that the environment inside was quite clean, although there was still a great smell, but there were fruit trees planted outside the rows of pigsties, and there were manure pits covered.
Inside, there was a sow with a calf rubbing against a stake.
As soon as Sun Butcher took Xu Ling and the others into the range of the He family, they heard a series of dog barking.
In the next second, a jet-black dog rushed out with a series of cubs, grinning at Xu Ling and the others.
"Kuroko! Come here! Sun Butcher hissed a few times, and the black dog immediately wagged his tail and rubbed his thigh with his head, but when he turned his eyes to look at Xu Lingshi, there was still an angry sound in his throat.
"This is a guest who buys meat, don't be unreasonable!"
As soon as Sun Butcher said, the black dog sat on the ground with a very spiritual attitude, tilted his head to look at Xu Ling, and his eyes became clear and stupid.
Its series of cubs, Xu Ling counted in his heart.
One, two, three...... Nine......
"There were twelve! It's all its dogs? ”
Xu Ling was shocked, is this still a dog? It's a pig!
