Chapter 168 Earn a little money
Yan Xiangheng and Daya followed the gaze of the second uncle and looked over.
I saw that Aunt Rong worked very neatly and effortlessly, and all the weeds had no strength under her hoe.
Strongly shovel ashes and fly grass.
The work of shoveling grass really surprised the Yan family.
At first, I thought that Nanny Rong was just a housework talent, but I didn't expect that the customized version of the farmhouse would have the addition of a vegetable garden.
As long as these two fields are set as their family's 'vegetable garden', Nanny Rong will take good care of the vegetables in the field.
Well, as good as taking care of their four hens.
For Nanny Rong, these weeds must be cut and rooted out, so every seemingly random digging is just right and deep, which is similar to turning over the ground.
…
Estimated that the time would be about the same, Yan Laoer found Qi Si and went to the brick factory in the town to pay the deposit
Guanzhou's tael of silver can be exchanged for 1,200 Wen, which Yan Laoer did not expect.
This is still the exchange price at the bank, and I am afraid that it will be circulated in private and exchanged for more.
Originally, it was expected that two people would exchange forty-five taels of silver, but now forty taels are enough.
Yan Laoer paid the money very quickly, usually he only needs to pay 30% of the deposit, and he paid 40% first. He pulls away.
The two sent the bricks back first, and then went to the quarry to pull three carts of stones.
The steward saw that he was saving trouble, or maybe he knew that he was the younger brother of the newly appointed household secretary, so he took special care of him. There were more large pieces of waste stone, and Yan Laoer's particularly rare thin stone slabs also loaded him with an extra half a car .
Busy all morning, Yan Laoer and Qi Si didn't come back until noon.
Before the ox cart approached, Yan Laoer saw a group of people surrounding his homestead.
"Hey! What are you doing?" He shouted from a distance.
"Yan Er, Yan Er is back!"
I was very happy when I heard it.
Yan's second son wondered, what's wrong?
The bullock cart approached, which was even more amazing. The big guy was extremely enthusiastic. He not only unloaded the cart for him, but also divided the stones into piles.
"What's the matter? What's the matter with you?" Yan Er had to ask clearly.
"Second Brother Yan, your family is about to build a house? Do you need someone?"
Oh, it turned out to be this matter.
Yan Er thought that he had to explain clearly to everyone: "Folks, don't be surprised. My house is going to be built by a master to make it strong and beautiful. The bricks are expensive, so I don't want to throw them away."
Everyone can understand that whoever builds such an expensive house does not want to build it better.
"Yan Er, how much is this brick?"
Yan's second child must not be able to quote his own price.
In case someone goes to buy it, how can the price be adjusted if he can’t buy it.
"One piece of paper for green bricks, one piece of paper for red bricks."
The big guys talked a lot.
"Hiss! It's not cheap!"
"This is the price for bricks. The brick factory in our town used to be more expensive than this."
"A house costs... tens of taels of silver, that's incredible!"
"We don't dare to think about it. At most, we can build a stove. Hey, Yan Er, how about you spare some of these red bricks for me? I don't want more, two hundred yuan is enough."
It was Hu Da who spoke. We had hunted pigs together and killed bandits together. Our relationship was different, so we didn't treat him politely.
"If you buy more, you can get some money back. It costs two hundred yuan. I can't give you any cheaper. It's just one penny. If you want, you can bring the copper plate and take the brick away." Yan Lao Er said.
Hu Da responded happily, "What are you going to do when you go back? We will take it with you." Hu Da took out a piece of broken silver, no more, no less, exactly two cents.
Hands are quite accurate.
Yan Lao Er took it over and said loudly: "Taking advantage of the crowd, let me tell you that in the bank in this town, one tael of silver can be exchanged for two hundred cash per penny. Brother Hu gave too much money, so I have to find it." go back.
However, starting from today, don’t turn over old accounts. "
"Are we that inauthentic person?"
"Hahaha! Then you can't, Yan Er, put your heart in your stomach."
Hu Dazhang bought bricks, and the others also moved their minds.
Yan Er said in the head, his family buys more, so it must be cheaper, everyone understands this truth.
If they changed it, they would go and buy one hundred and two hundred for zero, which is the price.
Besides, Yan Er was dragged into the village by Zhuandu, saving them effort.
Thinking about it this way, some asked for a hundred, some asked for two hundred, and they divided up the red bricks that Yan Laoer and Qi Si had brought back.
As for Qingzhuan, let the Yan family take it by themselves.
Waste rocks are of course cheaper, but they have also heard that the stones are not easy to buy, and it is because of favors.
Yan Lao Er smiled and strung up the copper plates.
The capital is 4,500 Wen.
Net profit of 500 Wen.
Qi Si didn't make a sound beside him.
The red bricks belong to his family, yes, they can buy them again when the bricks are gone, but they can afford to wait until the house is built later.
Yan Lao Er counted out two hanging fifty coins and handed it to him.
With a bright smile, he said: "Qi Si, our two brothers are coming to work, hurry up and have a meal, go to Dongqiao in the afternoon, maybe you have to go to the other side of the river, find a few more brick factories, and pull some more bricks." return."
The demand is quite large, and many of them are not bought.
Qi Si rubbed his hands together, took the copper coin, and smiled a little naively.
This makes money? Brother Yan is really amazing!
…
When Yan Er found the field, Nanny Rong was showing her skills.
From beating egg liquid, adding water, to steaming, there are no unnecessary unnecessary actions, and the time control is extremely precise.
After steaming the egg custard, the steamer also heated up the hardened steamed buns to make them soft again.
These are the last six steamed buns in the family. The aunts in the village have not started work for a while, and if they want to eat them again, they may have to steam them at home.
Yan Yu held a wild duck egg in one hand and showed it to her father.
"Dad, touch it, it's still warm, hahaha!"
Yan Xiangheng and Da Ya thought she was happy that Mao Mao found the egg.
Xiao Er picked up six eggs with his clothes in his pockets, and they were also happy.
Actually, Yan Yu was laughing at her father's whimsy, how could he possibly catch the wild duck if he had never identified the wild duck for the cat.
These **** have endured too much for their parents.
Yan's second child is not as knowledgeable as his daughter.
Didn't she say it herself? Dare to try.
After a few mouthfuls of stuffing a steamed bun, Yan Laoer seized the time to **** the ground.
Qi Si came to look for him, but he still didn't feel at ease to tell a few people, so as to save some effort to work.
Yan Xiangheng found that this Aunt Rong took good care of her second aunt who had a strong body, not letting her bend down, and would also help her when there were stones tripping her feet...
He thought, and he had to tell his father later that the second aunt was getting older, and the family was full of heavy work now, so it was better not to let her go to the field again.
Throughout the day, several people were busy in the field by the river.
Finally at sunset, half of the land was cleared, and weeds gathered in piles.
Li Xuemei said: "Let it go first, wait for the grass to dry before burning."
Yan Yu has a great sense of accomplishment.
Although I am tired, as long as I think that I can plant the seeds immediately, the seeds will be reaped, and the sense of expectation for the future will be full, and I will be full of energy.
Dear friends, I was shocked when I voted monthly for the house yesterday~
Scared to death, okay, I can vote too much, 396 votes a day, even with double blessing, it is still 198 votes! !
Although Mr. Zhai said that he is cute and cute, but I didn’t expect you to be so rare and inhumane. (*▽*)
Really, I've been used to staying in the cold palace, and it's the first time I enjoy the treatment of a concubine, quack, I feel a little secretly happy.
No wonder the harem is fighting for favor, it is indeed very high hahaha (><)
The starting point here is currently 990, but the backend of the house calculates all websites, which has exceeded a thousand~~~
I'll take a nap first, and get up in the afternoon to work hard.
I have to work hard, I can't always lie flat ヾ(°°)
