Parents are busy farming

Chapter 165 Qian Family Gray Cloth

When the farming season started, Lao Li rushed back from the village, and Ye Yongwang hired more than ten day laborers. It took him four or five days to finish harvesting the wheat at home.

As for Zhuangzi, there are tenants! They only need to collect the rent after harvesting the wheat.

"Zifen? What are you going to do with the wheat on your sixty acres of land? Are you going to sell it, or what?" Ye Yongwang asked Zifen after paying taxes on his wheat.

Because the wheat on Ye Zifen’s sixty acres of land was dry, not to mention it still took up space.

Ye Zifen thought for a long time before saying: "Grind it into flour! If you get more bran, feed it to the sheep. If you get less flour, let's keep it for ourselves. I think this flour should taste better."

Ye Yongwang nodded doubtfully and found someone to grind the noodles.

If we don’t do it, there will be no place to store our wheat!

The family is busy these days, and she is not idle either.

First, I bought a woman who taught her how to roast mutton.

Then he took over Lu Zili's work and asked him to go home to harvest wheat.

The third is to take the time to go to Qian's cloth workshop to check the quality of their gray cloth.

Things that had been arranged long ago were delayed again and again because Master Qian went to open a new store elsewhere.

Finally, Master Qian came back, and the family was busy with farming again.

"Long time no see, Miss Ye Wu!" When Master Qian saw Ye Zifen coming to the door, he was like seeing the God of Wealth, and he hurriedly said hello.

Ye Zifen rolled her eyes directly: "You have been making crazy money recently! You can't even see anyone. And shut your mouth quickly, you can see your back molars!"

Young Master Qian was not angry but still fanned himself with a smile and poured a cup of tea for Ye Zifen himself.

"I haven't congratulated Miss Ye Wu yet. Not only did she get hundreds of acres of fertile land, but she also opened several shops. I heard that you have a new food in your shop. Congratulations! I will go over and try it when I have time. In these days, Outside, I miss your mutton soup very much."

"Same joy, you will gain a lot from this trip, right?" Ye Zifen said with a smile.

"Hehe! It's okay, okay, it's almost as expected!" Young Master Qian said proudly while drinking tea with a smile.

Seeing her like this, Ye Zifen also started laughing.

"By the way, I heard that something happened to the Fu family again. Mr. Fu was taken for questioning by the county government. It's been several days and he still hasn't been released!"

Second Young Master Qian looked straight at Ye Zifen, meaning, 'Did you take action again? ’

Zi Zifen could probably guess why he was arrested and sent to the county government office. "It has something to do with me, but it was not designed by me."

Young Master Qian opened his mouth wide after hearing this.

"They haven't learned their lesson yet, and they still dare to provoke you. It seems that their family is quite wealthy! Come on, let me give you some advice on which properties are better to acquire from his family!"

Speaking of this, Second Young Master Qian was very excited.

Zhi Fen rolled her eyes at him, what did she say just now, "She is like a tigress, why can't she be messed with!" As long as there are no plots against her and her family, she will get along well with them. ’

When Master Qian saw that the aunt was not happy, he quickly held the fan in his hand.

She said not to argue with him, but Zi Zifen really didn't take it seriously.

"There's nothing particularly attractive about the Fu family's property. Otherwise, I'll sell it to you after I get it. I'm in urgent need of money recently." Ye Zifen said tentatively.

The three hundred taels given by Master Fu a few days ago have been used to buy shops and reward government officials.

The money she spends now is still the income from the mutton soup restaurant and the money from the cloth that Second Young Master Qian took away last time.

The money box is about to bottom out. Not only do we need to build a caravan, there are more than 40 vehicles, more than 40 people, and the money of the people who protect the caravan, money is needed everywhere!

Second Young Master Qian thought for a while, and there was really a store he liked, 'Pawn shop! ’

"I'm interested in his pawn shop. How about you get it and I give you five thousand taels of silver?" Second Young Master Qian suggested.

He has talked about the money very high. The Fu family's pawn shop is only worth three thousand taels, and the other two thousand taels are thanks to Ye Zifen for showing mercy to the Qian family.

After all, Ye Zifen is considered a local snake in this county. Last time her eldest brother offended her, she was very kind by just asking the Qian family to help sell cloth, and the Qian family also opened up the market because of her cloth.

Zi Zifen thought for a moment and said: "As long as the Fu family is willing to come to me and give up the pawn shop, then I will sell it to you. I also know how much his pawn shop is worth, and the price you paid is too high. But I If you need money recently, I won’t be polite to you!”

Second Young Master Qian nodded, and the two of them went to see the Qian family's gray cloth.

"The quality of your gray fabric is pretty good, but it would be nice if the count could be increased. It's too thin now!" Ye Zifen commented after looking at the gray fabric.

This is also what Second Young Master Qian is puzzled about. How did Zhi Zifen weave the cloth so thickly? Their cloth is the same as the ones circulating in the market, but compared with Zhi Zifen's cloth, it is still much worse.

This is another reason why Yefenfen cloth can open up the market.

"Can you tell me the reason why your family's weaving is thick?" Master Qian's face was full of doubts.

Ye Zifen immediately smiled and said: "No!"

Second Young Master Qian knew that he was happy for nothing.

Zhang Gaoyi was harvesting wheat at home recently. Old man Zhang thought it would be easier this year because he had a donkey at home. Who would have thought that he would be pregnant with a baby.

However, Zhang Gaoyi did not tell Old Man Zhang that the donkey was born from a horse and that the donkey was pregnant with a mule.

Without the donkey, the two men can only continue to work hard to harvest wheat!

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang Wang has become a lot more honest this year and knows how to work in the fields. Although she works very slowly, at least she has a helper, right?

Zhang Xiayue also knows how to boil water and cook some simple meals. Although it's not very tasty, it's more or less sensible.

After the two men collected half of it, Liu Jiancai came to help.

His family only has four acres of land, and they received the grain from the drying field in two days. Now Zhang Chunyue is watching the grain drying field, turning it over from time to time.

He just happened to come to my father-in-law’s house to help! The younger brother also went to help at his future father-in-law's house.

Liu Jiancai has taken on a lot of jobs in the past few months and made some money.

After Zhang Gaoyi came back from the beach, he visited Zhang Chunyue again and secretly left some money for Zhang Chunyue.

This time Zhang Chunyue didn't hide anything from Liu Jiancai, so Liu Jiancai worked extremely hard to help.

After seeing this, Mrs. Zhang Wang couldn’t find fault any more.

The old house of the Lu family was also living peacefully. Lu Zili did not give all of his monthly money to Lu Li, but kept part of it for himself and secretly gave some to Lu Bai.

He couldn't give it all to Lu Li, because the income of the mutton soup restaurant was very good, so he divided a lot of money.

If they found out about his high income and asked where he was a shopkeeper, the secret would be revealed.

Based on Grandpa's character, knowing that Xiao Wu is so good at making money, he will definitely try to get involved with the Ye family again.

He had already thought about it, and after harvesting the autumn harvest, he persuaded his grandfather to send Gao Yi to study and learn to read.

Now I am practicing Gaoyi Literacy every night when I come back. I believe that I will not be left behind even if I go to Master's place.

When giving money to Lu Bai, he also reminded his mother to make more clothes for her three sisters and teach them more crafts.

Although Lu Bai agreed, he also taught craftsmanship.

But I still kept the money to subsidize my parents' family from time to time, and the rest was saved for my two sons.
