The escape system takes me to dig for treasures

Chapter 86 Spending money to hire people

Now when I look at the ten little pigs in the yard, I feel extremely worried.

As soon as he got worried, he started to push Jiang Youli to work.

"The meat to be sold tomorrow hasn't been washed yet. Go and wash the pork."

Let the wooden stakes be driven crookedly, this useless son.

After driving his son to wash the pork, Mr. Jiang was cutting wood, driving stakes, and finding ropes to tie and secure the stakes.

Jiang Li and Mrs. Zhao packed up the things they bought in the morning on the carriage.

Mrs. Zhao moved the pork and followed Jiang Youli to help clean it. Pork is easy to clean, mainly because the pigs get into the water.

Zhao was strong, while Jiang Youli was more attentive. The couple worked together, and it took more than half an hour to wash and marinate the pile of pork.

Jiang Li also finished cleaning up, cooked the lunch meal, washed the vegetables, and was preparing to light the fire to stir-fry.

A few young men came outside, each carrying a bamboo basket behind them, piled high with pig grass.

"We packed the pig grass and sent it over. Do you think this bamboo basket is worth three cents?"

These boys were standing outside with bamboo baskets on their backs, looking at Gracilaria.

Jiang Li took the people to the backyard, poured the pigweed on the ground, and immediately took out nine coins.

"This is the money you paid for hunting pigweed. You have to shoot three more baskets in the afternoon, and the amount must be according to this amount."

Jiang Li warned.

"Okay!" The child who got the money responded with a much stronger voice.

The New Year's money for the New Year is only five cents. Now one person can earn six cents a day by hunting pigweed. This is simply too easy for them.

But after I got the money, I had to go home and share it with my sister who was left at home to look after the baby.

They were not going to tell the adults that they had made money by hunting hogweed, otherwise their mothers would take it away.

Anyway, we usually have to kill hogweed, so we just need to do more.

So next, the daughters-in-law of the village chief's family found that their boys went out less to climb trees, dig out bird's nests, fish, and fight less. To be together.

But as long as the kids at home stayed in peace, I didn't ask any questions.

Jiang Li and others were busy working at home all afternoon, and finally settled the pigs and gave them a meal.

The four people in the family were very tired, and they all ate a lot less lunch.

After padding their stomachs, everyone went to take a nap and rest.

The moment he fell asleep, Mr. Jiang thought to himself that although he also wanted to use his spare energy, he didn't need to use it to such an extreme.

In the evening, Jiang Songshu took his two younger brothers back to the village in a mule cart.

When I walked to the door of my house, I saw smoke rising from the roof.

On the dinner table, there were leftovers from lunch, but Jiang Li also added two new dishes, braised eggplant and braised pig's feet.

Nails were specially hammered into the room. Jiang Baishu and Tieniu stepped on the stools and hung their book bags on the wall. They washed their hands and came over to eat.

Jiang Songshu and others were very hungry and couldn't wait to talk more, so they picked up the food and ate quickly.

When they were almost finished eating, they noticed that Jiang Li and the others looked listless.

I still haven’t recovered my energy after all the hard work today.

Jiang Songshu wanted to ask them what was going on, but before he could open his mouth, he heard intermittent, small humming sounds coming from his ears.

"Did you hear anything?"

After everyone heard this, they remembered that Jiang Songshu didn't know about the pig purchase at home, so they started telling Jiang Songshu about it.

"Ten pigs? Our family raises ten pigs. Is this true? Can we raise them?"

Jiang Songshu thought that Jiang Li was just joking, and even if he wanted to raise pigs, he was not so fast. Why did he raise pigs just after going to the market, and he still raised ten pigs.

"While our family has some money now, of course we must hurry up and get started. Besides, it takes a long time to raise a pig. From now on, it will take seven or eight months to be ready for slaughter."

Jiang Li once again used the same words she said to deceive Jiang Dacheng in the morning to deceive Jiang Songshu.

"If we don't raise our own, we have to buy from others. We will consume 90 pigs a year, so we might as well raise our own, and the quality of the pork we raise can be controlled."

Under Jiang Li's nagging, Jiang Songshu nodded dazedly.

"Then you really should raise them. Aren't these ten a bit too few?"

Mr. Jiang wants to wake up Jiang Songshu. Is he stupid? Is it stupid? Whether these ten animals can be fed is another matter. We have to feed them again!

Isn't this just adding to the chaos?

The old man's eyes almost popped out of his sockets. Seeing that Jiang Songshu still didn't respond, he stretched out his foot under the table and kicked Jiang Songshu.

Jiang Baishu screamed and said aggrievedly: "Master, why are you kicking me?"

Mr. Jiang looked at his nose and heart before clearing his throat and said, "Eat!"

Jiang Baishu pouted, he was just eating, why did he kick him?

After dinner, as mentioned before, Jiang Baishu will teach everyone how to read.

After the dinner table was cleared, Jiang Li handed out a piece of paper to everyone, and each person held a charcoal pencil in their hand.

Jiang Baishu remembered Jiang Li's words and listened to the Master's lectures attentively.

But after all, I am still new to enlightenment, and my writing is crooked, but it would be nice to know what the characters are.

There is an open three-character scripture on the table, "This character reads people."

Jiang Baishu wrote it out stroke by stroke. The master taught it from scratch, so he had to teach his family members from the beginning.

Afraid of being taught wrongly, he even went to ask his master for confirmation today.

"Recite this word."

"This word is pronounced Chu."

First, he taught everyone to remember these three words, and then led others to read.

Fortunately, there were no other houses around the Jiang family, otherwise it would have been very scary to hear the sound of reading loudly at night.

After learning from Jiang Baishu, I now have to learn abacus from Mr. Jiang.

Mr. Jiang once said that he knew an abacus, but he didn't have an abacus at home. Jiang Li bought this abacus at the market today for a hundred dollars.

There was the sound of reading and the crackling of abacus in the house, and even the pigs in the yard were disturbed from sleep.

The Jiang family went to bed an hour later than usual and had to get up early the next morning. They couldn't help but sigh, making money is really not an easy task.

But no one complained about not wanting to learn.

Jiang Li prepared two pots of meat today. As previously agreed, Mr. Jiang and Jiang Youli had a stall, and Jiang Li and her mother Zhao had a stall.

On the way into the city, Jiang Li told Mr. Jiang, "Master, if my father doesn't know how to do it, please teach him more. Don't let him do nothing. You take care of everything. When will my father be able to take charge of his own business?" , I also hope that my father can hold a stall by himself in the future!"

Jiang Youli didn't expect that his daughter would think so highly of him, so he couldn't help but puff out his chest, "That's right, Dad, I just wasn't familiar with it at the beginning, so I moved slower. It will be fine when I get familiar with it."

He thought that if he had to run a stall by himself in the future, he would have to learn arithmetic well. Then there would be no one to help him collect money and settle accounts.

After being told this, Mr. Jiang knew that what his granddaughter said was right.
