Through the small days of farming

"You want to make money from this?"

Seeing that he didn't speak, Bai Niannian knew without thinking that he thought about doing this, "If this could make money, the people in the village would have already done it."

This way of making money is thankless, without connections, even if the firewood is delivered to someone's door, they will not ask for it.

"I wanted to do this at first, but it makes sense to hear what you said. If I go to the mountains to collect firewood, my two children will not be seen. If the firewood cannot be sold, even the money for renting an ox cart will be lost." I'm sorry." Brother Yu said disappointedly, and soon cheered up again, "There is no unparalleled road, this road does not lead, there is always a road that leads."

"Brother Yu!" Bai Niannian suddenly grabbed his hand, "Do you want to make money?"

"Think." Brother Yu was taken aback by his action, and pulled out his hand.

"I have a way to make money now, do you want to try it?" Bai Niannian said.

He is busy, but he can let Brother Yu try it out. He remembers how to make salted eggs. After soaking them in white wine, let the eggs roll in a circle of salt, and finally put them in a jar and seal them. After 30 days, it will be ready to eat.

But the problem now is that the alcohol content here is generally low. I don’t know if the salted eggs are successful or not. Also, the refined salt here is expensive, and the effect of coarse salt may not be so good.

Salted eggs will definitely be very popular. They just want to stay in this small mountain village and don't want to venture out. I'm afraid they can't digest many salted eggs in this one-acre three-point land in their town, and the salted eggs need to be famous. There will be more people.

Bai Niannian already has a suitable candidate in his mind, he plans to go back and discuss with his man before making a decision!

"What way?" Brother Yu didn't agree immediately, their family couldn't stand the trouble, and he wasn't the type to do business or something.

"Make salted eggs." Bai Niannian said mysteriously, explained in his ear what salted eggs are, and said, "Didn't you receive a lot of eggs when you held a banquet last time? Just those eggs It’s good to do an experiment, now it’s marinated, and I can take it out to taste during the Chinese New Year, if it’s successful..."

Brother Yu also thought of the bright prospect of success, which has never been seen before. If it is really as delicious as Brother Nian said, there is no need to worry about sales.

Anyway, it won't take much time, even if Brother Nian is just kidding, he is willing to give it a try.What's more, Brother Nian doesn't look like he's joking.

Brother Nian saw that he didn't ask him where he came from, and nodded in his heart. He likes people like Brother Yu who don't ask too many questions. After all, Brother Yu helped him a lot when he was young. After he got married, He also took good care of him. After Brother Yu got married, Aunt Chen also took good care of them.

If he had the character of their uncle's family, even if he threw away the method, he would not tell them.

"Brother Nian, why do you help me like this?"

Brother Yu firmly memorized the steps he said, and looked at him with complicated eyes.

"Then why Brother Yu helped our family back then? Why did Aunt Chen help our family?" Bai Niannian blinked and blinked, "The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by the spring."

"But these are too expensive..."

"I believe in Brother Yu's character. Besides, without you, we might not be where we are now." Bai Niannian interrupted him.

He is really grateful to Brother Yu's family, if it weren't for them, their life might not be able to survive.

"Besides, this is just an incomplete Dufangzi. The missing part depends on Brother Yu to complete it."

"Okay, leave it to me! I will definitely make it." Brother Yu said confidently, "We also have eggs at home, so you don't need to bring them over. Those eggs are for you to eat, so he caught them." A few of the family hens came to feed me. Their eggs were enough."

He originally planned to keep the extra eggs, wait for some more, and then take them to the town to sell for money.

But now, it's okay to use them up.

"That's fine." Bai Niannian stopped arguing with him, if he refused, Brother Yu would probably give him money, "Then I'll go back first."

"Well, be careful on the road."

"Huh? Brother Ning, why are you here?" Bai Niannian returned home briskly, and found Brother Ning and Shen Wei peeling persimmons with knives, "Where did Ming Ren go?"

"Mingren said to go for a walk to get some air." Shen Wei replied, "He will be back soon."

Bai Niannian didn't think of going anywhere else, so he nodded and prepared to drive the chickens back to the chicken coop.

Going to the side of the chicken coop, I found that the chicks had been driven back.

He turned back to peel the persimmons again, "Brother Ning, have you finished peeling your persimmons?"

The number of persimmons in their two families is about the same, and they finished peeling so quickly?

"It's finished. I think yours should not be finished yet, so I'll come over and help." Ning Ge'er was talking, but the movements of his hands didn't slow down.

He felt that he might have misread it. Brother Ning looked weak, but his movement of peeling persimmons was not slow at all. It could even be said that it was very fast, three points faster than Mingren's.

"Brother Ning, how did you cut it so fast?" Bai Niannian watched him cut a few.

I found that Brother Ning didn't even need to look at it. As soon as the knife was used hard, the persimmon was turned around, and after a few turns, a persimmon was ready to be cut.

But the persimmons he peeled were so thin that the whole strip of persimmon skin was not broken.

Ning Ge'er pursed his lips and smiled, "There are few people in the village who you married, so I don't know, our family moved to the town, and we started our family by selling persimmons."

"When I was young, I often peeled persimmons for my family, and I could peel them off with my eyes closed. Now I haven't peeled them for a long time, and the speed is a bit slow."

"I'm sorry." Bai Niannian said embarrassedly, bringing up Ning Ge'er's sadness, Ning Ge'er's father is really not a good thing, even such good children as Ning Ge'er and Cheng Ge'er are willing to throw them away, Leave them to fend for themselves in the town.

Brother Ning smiled indifferently, "It's okay, I've already read it, the old saying is good, if you have a stepfather, you will soon have a stepfather, I didn't believe it before, but now I think it is true Makes sense."

"An Cheng and I have a better life than them. Since he kicked us out, he is no longer our father."

"This kind of scumbag father should have denied it a long time ago. They will regret it sooner or later." Bai Niannian said angrily now, he didn't know that what he said now would become a prophecy.

The three of them worked together, and it was much more comfortable and faster, not to mention that there was one Ning Geer who was worth two, and the persimmons piled up on the ground quickly disappeared, and Shen Wei strung them up one by one and hung them under the eaves.

When Chen Mingren came back, there was only a small pile of persimmons left, and his whole body was full of excitement.

Not long after, all the persimmons were processed.

Brother Ning and Shen Wei bid farewell and went home.

A large pile of persimmon skins was piled up on the ground, Bai Niannian put them into wooden barrels, Chen Mingren carried them to the backyard, and buried them in the fertile land they reserved as an open space.

"Aren, why are you so happy to go?"

"what!"

Bai Niannian was suddenly picked up by him, which startled him. Thinking that the two little guys were still sleeping, he quickly covered his mouth and complained softly, "What are you doing? Pick me up all of a sudden?"

Chen Mingren straightened his lower body.

Bai Niannian's ears quietly climbed up to Hongyun, "I haven't showered yet!"

"It's okay, I still have to take a shower later anyway." Chen Mingren said indifferently.

Bai Niannian thought of the mandarin duck bath, but luckily the tub was no longer usable, he thought with ease, let's wash it later!

The man released it twice, then carried him to the bathroom, apparently to clean up his body, but he was too relieved, the bathtub was like that, but the small room for bathing was still there!

When he woke up the next morning, Bai Niannian didn't know how to face the small shower room.

Pushed against the wall, unable to even move, he could only endure waves of pleasure.

In the end, he fell asleep when the man was cleaning his body, and he didn't notice when the man carried him back.

Chen Mingren, who knew he was wrong, gave his wife a massage last night after he fell asleep, so Bai Niannian got up the next day looking refreshed.

Last night he also felt refreshed, and when he woke up the next day he was still alive and kicking, so Bai Niannian wasn't very angry anymore.

When he got up, the two little guys in the family hadn't gotten up yet. Chen Mingren was busy in the kitchen. Seeing this, he helped to cook the vegetables after washing up. Today's breakfast was still chestnut rice, because the man was going to the village head Concentrate on what to do if you encounter a wild boar with no strength to run?

After this period of time, their breakfast will change back to porridge.

"When did the village head gather?" Bai Niannian asked the man who was lighting the fire while stirring the potato leaves.

"No hurry, it shouldn't be that fast, just go slowly after breakfast."

"Do you want to bring the hoe? Will you come back for lunch at noon?"

"Come back for lunch. What we are going to dig a trap now is not to face a wild boar. Don't worry, I still have the ability to protect myself." Chen Mingren comforted him.

"Just know that I'm worried about you, Ren, do we want to raise two pigs?" Bai Niannian looked at him, thinking to himself, if the family raises two pigs, they can be slaughtered after more than half a year. , as long as they keep it for themselves, the bacon can be eaten for a year.

A healthy piglet can be bought for one tael of silver. If the pig grows up smoothly, it can be sold for three or four taels of silver, earning two or three taels of silver.

But here, the death rate of pigs is still quite high, and pigs and vegetables have to be cut and fed for three meals a day.

When the pig died of illness, a tael of silver was lost.

"Even if you want to raise pigs, there is no pig grass to feed it at this time." Chen Mingren disapproved of raising pigs in his heart, because the smell of raising pigs was very strong, and they didn't have any place to raise them.

When there is no pigweed, they have to be fed grain. In his opinion, it is a waste of grain.

"Then let's buy two more piglets when spring begins!" Bai Niannian changed his mind.

"Pigs need to be fed three meals a day. There are a lot of fields in the house. It's just me and you. We can't handle our own affairs. Let's talk about raising pigs later!" Chen Mingren thought, waiting for Ming Liming When De grows up, he can help the family with work, but their family is trying to raise a pig. At worst, the pig will be kept in their old house, so it will be tasteless.

Bai Niannian thinks it makes sense, they have a lot of things to do at home, his salted eggs are not yet ready, and the dried hawthorns are not yet ready, the corn in the field can almost be recovered, and they have to help Shen Wei's family prepare for the winter firewood.

Things may seem small, but they are all packed together, and they might be able to keep busy with their three heads and six arms.

"Have you seen our corn? When can we take it back?"
