Farmer's Favorite

On this day, Zhuang Xinyan's family received more than a hundred baskets one after another.

There is simply no room for stacks in the warehouse, and they are all placed in the courtyard, and one corner is full of stacks, which is very spectacular to watch.

Zhuang Xinyan found that the delivered ingredients were placed in the warehouse, which was actually more than his previous quantity.

More quantity, naturally not more value.

What he took out were all real bacon, and what he returned contained meat but also eggs or winter vegetables, which was naturally inferior.Zhuang Xinyan didn't have any dissatisfaction, or even if he returned an empty basket, he would be extremely happy.

Of course, there are those who have paid back and those who have not.

Although there are not many households, Lin Qi's natal family is among them.

Lin Qi's face was slightly gloomy. The Lin family also came to the house yesterday, and there were quite a few of them.

If it is said that men from other families are willing to go out, but his eldest brother is obviously unwilling to go out because he knows that there is money to be made, he would rather stay at home. There are six people in the family, so I asked him for a small room to warm up , I left after eating until my stomach was full.

But there was no word.

Lin Qi doesn't care about these things, even he knows that he doesn't need to care if he has given them all as his mother's family, but he doesn't even have a word, and he doesn't need it, but it doesn't mean he doesn't need it. At least it's good to support him.

As time got later and later, Lin Qi went from having a little expectation to the end, but he really gave up.

How could Zhuang Xinyan not know what Lin Qi was thinking, but he didn't comfort him.

Because he knew that if he wanted the old man Lin's family to remember them well, he would have to give them a large sum of money and spend a few days of incomparable prosperity.

Zhuang Xinyan didn't have such a tendency to self-torture, and he also knew that Lin Qi wouldn't have such thoughts either.

If his father-in-law's family really has ideas and dares to do things, he will help the village, but if they just send money, even Lin Qi will not be happy.

"Zhuang Xinyan, it's not a problem to keep so many baskets, we have to deal with them anyway." Lin Mashi was busy for half a day cleaning up the things in the baskets, but no matter how busy he was, he was still happy.

Looking at these baskets, Zhuang Xinyan thought that if they were sold, they could sell for a hundred dollars, but at least it would take a few months to sell them. After all, everyone can weave baskets, and no one will spend money unless they are forced to. to buy.

And he didn't have the time to set up a stall to sell it.

He said, "Can you return it?"

Lin Ma seemed to have heard the funny words, and said with a smile: "Where can I get it back, some of them still know who sent them, but some of them were delivered to the door early in the morning, and I don't know who sent them."

Zhuang Xinyan thought for a while, and said, "When Shopkeeper Yuan comes, let him take it away. There should be a lot of it in their shop."

After finishing speaking, the four words 'waste utilization' could not help appearing in my mind.

And Yuan Yi came to collect the salted eggs, and when he saw the basket presented by Bai, he naturally added a few words of thanks.

For Zhuang Xinyan, this not only earned him a few good words, but also cleared him of his troubles, just right.

Then came the official errands.

The bandit was caught, and it was reported by the village chief. No matter what, there should be rewards, but the official didn't mention a word, but just took away the woman and Shuang'er who were arranged in the village yesterday.

In this way, it makes people feel a little inexplicable.

However, Village Chief Lin didn't think much about it.

Because, the man who went to Xingcheng has come back.

From going out to coming back, it took five days.

Apart from the two days and two nights on the road, they only stayed in Xingcheng for three days, and they came back.

When Village Chief Lin heard the news, he couldn't sit still immediately. Taking advantage of the moonlight, he rushed to Lin Shuangyong's house.

That's right, it was Lin Shuangyong and his brothers who went to Xingcheng this time.

Lin Shuangyong and his party came back against the darkness, and they were sitting in the room gnawing on steamed buns at this time, although their expressions were tired, their faces were filled with great joy.

But Village Chief Lin knew it after thinking about it.

If the salted eggs they brought hadn't been sold out, they wouldn't have come back so early.

But Village Chief Lin still asked expectantly, "How is it?"

Lin Shuangyong didn't even eat the steamed buns at this time, nodded heavily, and said: "Village chief, you don't know how big the city is, the gate is so high that it seems to have entered the sky, and our brothers entered You can't see the city with your eyes, and there are carriages and horses everywhere in the city, and you can't finish seeing all the good things, but the things are too expensive, and the good hotels cost half a tael of silver a night, and even a shop is worthless. It cost thirty yuan, we thought it was too expensive, so we simply went out of the city gate at night and slept casually in the ruins outside for a few days."

Village head Lin was out of breath, and he just hit it with a dry tobacco stick. He said angrily, "Who asked you this? I asked you how the salted eggs are sold."

Lin Shuangyong smiled stupidly, "Of course they are sold out, and you don't know, all the [-] salted eggs we brought were sold out in just one day, if you don't want to see if they can sell them in the restaurant Well, we might come back sooner, maybe."

Three hundred salted eggs is almost [-] wen, and the three brothers get [-] wen each, and they earn [-] wen in five days, which is a little less than flower cakes.

However, this time it was just to test the waters.

The business of salted eggs is so good, if they bring a thousand pieces next time, they might be able to sell them all. At that time, each person can earn more than half of the taels of silver.

He hurriedly said: "There are a lot of people in our village who go to Xingcheng, but I see that most of them are selling well, and because of the business we brought up first, those folks who don't know how to do business, as long as they send The restaurant can be sold."

"So good?" Village Chief Lin couldn't believe it, but he also knew that Lin Shuangyong would not lie to him about such a big matter. He asked, "Then when are you going to go there again?"

"If it's not too late today, I want to go directly to Zhuang Xinyan to order the salted eggs, and I'll go out the next day at the latest." Lin Shuangyong replied truthfully. Think carefully.

Salted eggs are obviously easy to sell, so it is natural to make more money by traveling all the way.

Moreover, he also knew that the quantity of salted eggs in Zhuang Xinyan's place was not too large. If they were late, they might run out of stock, and the loss would be money.

This time he calculated.

The three brothers teamed up and planned to take five hundred pieces of each of the two kinds of salted eggs, which would cost seven taels of silver.

If it was before, the three brothers would definitely not be able to get it out.

But now, squeezing together is enough.

At that time, with a thousand salted eggs, they will be able to earn two taels of silver. He does not intend to share the two taels with his brothers, but directly add them to the capital and then buy salted eggs to sell. After a year, it will be a large sum of money.

Village head Lin also has thoughts.

He knew that in the whole village, the person who really knew how to do business was not his son, but Lin Shuangyong.

It was about flower cakes.

Lin Shuangyong was the first person who dared to eat crabs.

And the first to bring the good news.

The same is true about the salted egg. Although they all went out together to do business, Lin Shuangyong was the first one to come back. Naturally, he had plans to come back so eagerly.

And this plan made Village Chief Lin pay attention to it.

in this way.

Just the next morning.

Lin Shuangyong bought [-] salted eggs with seven taels of silver, and Village Chief Lin also bought the same amount of salted eggs with the same silver.

Several people returned to the village the next day and bought more than 1000 coins one after another.

Afterwards, the people who returned to the village happily were suddenly dumbfounded to find that the salted eggs were out of stock.

The business can be done, and people are rushing to buy it, but they can't sell it. This is very frustrating for those who came back late.

Lin Baocheng and his brothers regretted it at first.

The first thing they did when they returned to the village was to go to Zhuang Xinyan to decide how much to buy, but they were suddenly told that the salted eggs were out of stock, and they would have to wait at least five days before they could buy them, and the quantity was very small , There are only about 2000 pieces, which is not enough for so many people in their village.

As a result, wait for them to go home.

His father actually gave them a big surprise.

Hearing this, Lin Baocheng stepped forward excitedly and hugged his father, shouting excitedly, "Father, when did you become so smart that you ordered a thousand salted eggs for us?"

Village head Lin was quite happy at first, but when he heard his son say this, he immediately blew his beard and glared, "Since when is your father not smart, the least smart thing about me is that I took such a stupid son as you with your mother. "

Lin Baocheng wasn't angry either, since he could get so many salted eggs, his father could just beat him up.

There are four places in total.

There are so many people in the village, naturally there are more than one group in each place.

Before he came, he had signed contracts with several restaurants, and he could only take their products. The reason why those restaurants signed the contract was because he revealed that the person who could pickle salted eggs was his brother-in-law, so he was sure. Several stable businesses.

If this time, they can no longer provide salted eggs to these restaurants in a short period of time, I am afraid that the business of these restaurants will not last long.

After thinking about it, Lin Baocheng asked seriously, "Father, how much money can our family give?"

Village head Lin also restrained his smile, he was slightly embarrassed, and then he hummed in front of his sons, he said: "The thousand salted eggs cost seven taels of silver, and our family can still come up with three taels Here comes the silver."

Ten taels of silver is also the entire family property of Village Chief Lin.

This is because during this period of time, the sons made a lot of money selling flower cakes, otherwise the family would not be able to spend ten taels of silver.

Brother Lin asked in confusion: "Isn't there no salted eggs, why are you still raising money?"

Who would have known that as soon as these words were uttered, father and younger brother would stare blankly at them.

Not long after, Lin Baocheng came to the dealer with three taels of silver.

He thought, even though he didn't have the relationship with Brother Zhuang at the beginning, he still liked Lin Dong, but now he has to say that because of the relationship with Brother Lin Dong, is there any relationship between him and Brother Zhuang? Some are different.

Brother Zhuang said outside that the salted eggs were gone.

There are people who believe this, and there are people who don't.

He and his father are the latter, maybe Big Brother Zhuang has a small number of pickled salted eggs, but it is absolutely impossible to have none of them, he will definitely keep some for emergencies, and what he is looking for now is this .

Lin Baocheng wondered if he could use his brother-in-law's relationship to find a back door.

If there is such a condition, he naturally wants to try.

Even if it doesn't work, he won't have any complaints, and he will still obediently go out with the thousand salted eggs prepared by his father.But how it works is better, so that he will earn more next trip.

That's why he came to the door this time.

When Lin Baocheng came, Zhuang Xinyan was taking Lin Qi for a walk in the courtyard.

He hooked the waist of the person next to him, pointed to a wall and said, "Build a garden outside, and then open up this wall. Do you like to raise fish? How about digging a pond to raise some lotuses and fish?"

Lin Qi leaned on his shoulder and said with a smile: "It happens that we all like to eat fish, so why don't we just go fishing in the pond when we don't want to go out to buy?"

Zhuang Xinyan's eyes widened suddenly, he gave a thumbs up and said, "My Lin Qi is really good, this is a good idea."

"Brother, second brother, you are so funny, you dig a pond to raise food fish." Lin Baocheng said.

Zhuang Xinyan already knew that this kid had entered the door, so he just stared at him, but Lin Qi welcomed him very much, and took him into the main room and sat down.

Facing Brother Zhuang's disgusted face, Lin Baocheng was quite used to it, and he calmly said to Lin Qi who was greeting him, "Second brother doesn't need to serve tea, I will leave after talking to brother."

Zhuang Xinyan glanced at him, stretched out his hand to hold Lin Qi's wrist, and didn't intend to let him serve tea, and said directly: "Don't say anything, there are still a thousand salted eggs in the warehouse, take them and leave quickly." people."

Lin Baocheng was overjoyed, and immediately wanted to rush forward, but he was sneered by Brother Zhuang, and he didn't dare to move immediately, and shouted happily: "Brother, I knew you were the best for me."

Zhuang Xinyan laughed angrily, he is a fool to treat this fool well.

Lin Baocheng took out his pocket, couldn't help but paused, he smiled bitterly and said: "I only have three taels of silver, and I can't take a thousand."

Zhuang Xinyan turned his head and didn't speak, and gently rubbed the hand holding Lin Qi's wrist. He thought absently, whether the old doctor's prescription is good after all, after soaking in the medicinal soup for most of the winter, Lin Qi's hands and feet are not as good as before. as cold as ice.

Lin Qi continued the conversation, he said: "It's nothing, it's all at home, and you can pay the bill when you come back."

It's been the first time he's said these words in such a long time.

It's not that someone didn't think about credit before, even if Zhuang Xinyan didn't explain, he refused.

Now that he took the initiative to speak to Lin Baocheng, it can be seen that Lin Qi really regards the third brother-in-law's family as a family, at least he is much closer than other folks.

Lin Baocheng was also overjoyed, not because he was able to get credit.

Rather, the attitudes given by the two elder brothers made him feel close, so he was naturally very happy, and such preferential treatment made him smile from ear to ear.

He has even made up his mind that when he comes back next time, the first thing he will do is to come to his brother's house to pay the debt.

Waiting for Lin Baocheng to move the salted eggs.

There were only two people left in the hall.

Zhuang Xinyan brought up the topic just now again, and said: "Then when spring comes, I'll let someone build a house, enclose the open space next door, build a garden, dig a pond, and build a few more houses. When I have children, You can rush to live there, and it won’t disturb us.”

Lin Qi just couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "That's not okay, if I want to chase you, I can only chase you away."

Zhuang Xinyan raised his brows: "That's not okay. I'll go wherever you go. The little guys are very noisy. You should stay away from them. The charcoal cake will grow up by then. Let it take care of the little guys."

"Where did Charcoal take care of the child?"

"I can't even take care of the child, so I raise it for nothing."

"...Then you have to treat it better, don't kick it at every turn."

"You still have the nerve to say it, but you know that the eccentric son of a bitch kicked me with a lot of strength!"

"...Who told you to move your feet first?"

"I move my feet and you move them. Why don't you kiss me when I kiss you son of a bitch?"

"..."

Lin Qi couldn't continue, he reached out his hand to pinch Zhuang Xinyan's cheek in annoyance, and he pretended to say in a nasty voice, "I'm talking about you, do you still treat you as a child of two or three years old?"

Zhuang Xinyan allowed Lin Qi to knead his face, and said in a low-pitched, slightly ambiguous manner, "If you spoil me, you can treat me like I am two or three years old."

Lin Qi raised his eyes, "You originally said you wanted to pet me, but did you mean to treat me like a three-year-old child?"

Zhuang Xinyan stretched out his hand, let Lin Qi loosen his legs, sat between his legs, stretched his head forward, and touched the tip of his nose: "I treat you like my child Eminem, do you want to guess, How can I be spoiled?"

The hand supporting his waist slid up and down, but it was a pity that his hand couldn't get into his clothes. Zhuang Xinyan's eyes looked a little gloomy, and the strength of his hand became stronger, even showing a downward trend.

Lin Qi only felt the warmth and numbness in his waist, and leaned forward to lean on Zhuang Xinyan's shoulder, completely forgetting that he was in the main room at this time, he buried his head on his shoulder, biting his lower lip, He said vaguely: "Then you try."

These four words seemed to be sparked, and instantly exploded in Zhuang Xinyan's mind.

Pulling up the hem of the man's clothes and pulling down his trousers, the two hugged each other tightly and climbed into the clouds in the night.

The busy two didn't notice that a black shadow passed through the courtyard and headed towards the main room in the darkness.

The door of the main room was left open, and the shadow could easily pass through the door.

Familiar with the way, he picked up the sleeping charcoal cake and headed towards a certain direction.

Charcoal cake shrugged its nose, opened its eyes in a daze, and didn't show any fear at all. It seemed to be slapping its mouth full of sharp teeth, and it was a joy to play. Sleepiness is long gone.

After walking for a while, the black shadow put down the charcoal cake, fiddled with a white ball of hair that was going to be there in front of the charcoal cake with his front paws, and bent slightly, with threats in his throat, and sharp eyes with sharp eyes Staring at the white hair ball, waiting for the opportunity, he swooped forward.

However, instead of jumping down and biting the hairball, it passed by.

Then, the standing black shadow gently pushed the charcoal cake with its front paws, as if trying to make it try the previous action.

Unexpectedly, Tan Gao didn't move, she sat firmly, tilting her head slightly to look at the shadow.

The action of Sombra paused, and the force of pushing over became stronger.

Charcoal cake tilted his body, and his forelimbs fell on the ground. After a while, he even crawled with his raised head.

Hei Ying withdrew his front paws, stepped back and forth a few times around Charcoal Cake, and gestured twice to catch hair balls in front of Charcoal Cake. When he was done, he turned his head and saw that Cinder Cake was a little dazed. , almost fell asleep.

Then he opened his mouth and made the first sound after going down the mountain.

"Ow."

The voice was not small, even vaguely helpless, just rang in Charcoal Cake's ear, it was so frightened that it stood up and rushed towards the hairball. On the hairball, his hind feet slipped, and he sat down on the ground again.

Immediately, she whimpered a few times in pain, and there was water color in her bright eyes.

At this time, Dahei ran over from nowhere, and yelled 'Wow, woof, woof' at the black shadow, barking wildly.

The black shadow immediately clamped its tail, and stepped back and forth, looking very eager, lowering its head and wanting to move forward, but he didn't dare to move forward because of the barking sound, very wronged, wanting to move forward but dared not , In the end, I had no choice but to leave with one step and three turns, extremely reluctant to give up.

But Dahei didn't have any nostalgia, bared his teeth, seeing that the black shadow was indeed not there, and finally stopped barking.

It stepped forward, lowered its head and sniffed the charcoal cake, heard the whimper still coming from its throat, stretched out its forelegs and slapped the charcoal cake fiercely, so strong that the charcoal cake immediately turned a whole somersault , It was so dizzy, it fell heavily on the ground, it didn't even dare to whimper, it stood up obediently, bared its deciduous teeth, bent over, swayed over, and bit the hair ball Don't let go.

Looks very well-behaved.

until the next day.

Lin Qi rubbed his waist and opened the door. Not long after, he saw a little white rabbit covered with saliva in Charcoal Cake's mouth...

After careful calculation, this is already the third one.
