The Scenery of Farmgate

After Tang Cai lived in the county medical center for two days, he returned to Dongshan Village with Tang Ning. He still stayed at Widow Liu's house, but this time he took up some needlework in the county.At the same time, Du Fang and Yang Erlang, who often went to the county, were dragged to help find out where there is a cheap house to rent. He was determined to go to the county.

The Yang family was not affected by the bad things in Tangjia Village, and no one else came to make trouble for the time being, and it was still as busy as before.

At the end of the month, the workshop packed a thousand bags of snail noodles and various ingredients for Mr. Sun. Mr. Sun also arranged for a car to pick them up. After arriving in the county, he began to add ice to freeze the soup. The caravan set off again.

The first batch of stinky tofu and snail noodles sent to Kyoto by the Chu family has arrived. When I came here for the second time, I told Yang Shu about the business. The people in Kyoto are rich and like new things, stinky tofu and snail Both of the noodles are smelly, so Chu Heng asked someone to do a food tasting event at the door, not only free to eat, but also something to give away after eating, naturally many people wanted to try it.

Most people like it as soon as they eat it, and then tell others spontaneously that it is the tap water that is often said in modern times, and it has attracted many customers after repeated Amway.

The shop is quite big. It sells stinky tofu and snail noodles during the day, and stinky tofu and fried skewers at night. There is no time to pass it all day long. There are also many takeaways. The business is booming. The Chu family is very happy. This is the second time. The amount of goods pulled has increased again.

The snail powder and stinky tofu gradually got on the right track, so Yang Shu concentrated on studying the waterwheel. The model of the waterwheel made by Carpenter Tan can indeed drive water to water with one turn as Yang Shu said.

But the real thing is much bigger, and the water flow must also be considered, so repeated trials are required.

The Chu family wanted to wait for the waterwheel to be made for the second time, so they gave Yang Shu a sum of money as wages for Yang Shu to hire people to work.Yang Shu didn't refuse either, anyway, everyone gets what they need.

After thinking about it for about half a month, the crops in the world can start to be harvested, and the waterwheel has finally turned successfully. It is tall and beautiful, and it is very attractive when it turns.

All the people in the village came to see it, and they knew that this thing can also water, so they didn't like it.

Looking at Yang Shu with kind and adoring eyes, the elders in the village praised him in turn.

The village head looked up at the tall waterwheel and sighed: "Yang Jiashiro is not easy. We are lucky to have him in Dongshan Village." Such things can be tossed out, which is not something ordinary people can do.

"No, even if this waterwheel is useless, but such a big thing is set up, and our village has to be looked up to."

The people in their Dongshan Village used to be refugees, they came from adversity, and after they came here, they had to buy everything again, and they had no family at all. It was rumored that it took two generations to become like this. Even though life has improved a lot, they are still looked down upon by the people in the surrounding villages. .

But the village chief knew that it would be different soon, or that it would be different from now on.

After the waterwheel was set up, the children who ran the most frequently every day were the little ones in the village, while the adults went to the fields with sickles and farm tools. Even Yang Sanlang, who was studying in the county, returned home.

Spring plowing and autumn harvesting, the college will put more than 20 to [-] days off for students to go home to help.

Yang Sanlang has improved a lot in his homework in the first half of this year. If his family is not short of money, he doesn’t need to spend too much time copying books to earn living expenses. He has more time to study. Much better than before.

The autumn harvest is very busy, the whole family is busy, and the workshop is also temporarily closed, and will not restart until the autumn harvest is over.

Yang Shu wanted his family to eat better, so he took the initiative to contract the cooking work, and ate three meals a day during the autumn harvest. The Yang family got up before dawn, packed up and went to work in the field, and sent them to the field after Yang Shu made breakfast. Go in, eat and then work.The weather is still very hot, if you do more work in the morning, you can rest longer at noon, and then go to the fields in the afternoon when the sun is not so strong, and you will not come back until dark.

The Yang family has a lot of labor right now, Yang Shu is in charge of the family affairs, Tangning spends every day drying the rice in the dam, and the children are responsible for running errands.

It took a full half a month to get better, but this year the family is not short of money, at least two of the three meals a day have meat, plus Yang Shu is good at cooking and can cook a lot of dishes, this half a month is really busy Some, but not as tired as before, busy and happy.

At dinner time that day, after the rest of the Yang family finished praising Yang Shu's craftsmanship, the old man Yang also said, "Boss daughter-in-law, you don't have to keep busy with the field affairs. This workshop has been closed for so long. They have all come to your door, so you can go back and look at the workshop."

"There's not much work left. I, your mother, the eldest brother and the second child can finish the work in two days. This year, we don't need to go out to find part-time workers. We can take a good rest after we finish our work."

The rest of the Yang family have no objection. The two workshops are their main source of income now, not only them, but also many people in the village. In the past few days, people who have finished the autumn harvest have come to ask when the workshop will start.

Old man Yang turned his attention to Yang Shu again, "Fourth, what did the second son of the Chu family tell you yesterday? I think he looked very unhappy when he left."

In order to keep stocking for the autumn harvest, the workshop has stock, so it’s no problem to support the entire autumn harvest. Chu Gan came to Yang Shu yesterday to ask Yang Shu and the others to start work as soon as possible, and the second was to bring bad news.

"Chu Gan said that some people in Kyoto have made stinky tofu and snail noodles these days. Because there is no road transportation, the price is cheaper than what we sell. Many customers have been attracted to them. These days, the business has been affected. Influence, he came to ask me if there is anything I can do."

When the Yang family heard this, they stopped eating and stared at Yang Shu. Yang Dalang asked, "Then what to do, the business is not going well, so the workshop will have nothing to do."

They also discussed before that if the business gets better in the second half of the year, they will recruit more people. Besides the people in the village, they will also bring their daughter-in-law's natal family.But now it's like this, I'm afraid not even all the people in the workshop can stay.

Yang Shu was not surprised by this. The wisdom of the ancients is unimaginable, and it will only be a matter of time for others to make it. He said: "It is still the same as before, to ensure our quality and taste. Our Dongshan stinky tofu and snail powder are in Kyoto. I already have a little reputation, I plan to add some snacks and let the Chu family open a Dongshan snack shop in Kyoto."

Before the rest of the Yang family asked Yang Shu if the matter would be successful, the group of children ran to Yang Shu and looked at him eagerly, "Uncle, are you making spicy movies again? You haven't done it for a long time. , we want to eat."

"Uncle, shortbread is delicious too, we want to eat shortbread too."

"There's also duck necks. Uncle's duck necks are delicious. Uncle, when will you make them for us again?"

Children, you asked me one by one, and the rest of the Yang family found out that Yang Shu had already made a lot of snacks for the children in the family. They also ate those things. They tasted good, and they could make money if they thought about it. .

This reassured them.

Yang Shu touched his head one by one, "I'll make it for you when I'm done with work during this time. I'll go to the county tomorrow and come back with some shopping."

There are too many snacks in modern times. There are hundreds of types of spicy strips alone. In addition to spicy strips, you can also make some stewed vegetables and biscuits, which should be easy to sell.

"Okay then, fourth brother, you can do your work, and we will do other things." They couldn't think of any way to make money, so they hired all the work to save fourth child trouble.

Wanting to make snacks, Yang Shu asked Yang Sanlang to write him a plan at night, including the types and names of some snacks he planned to make.Yang Shu can recognize some characters in this era, but he really can't write. He plans to learn to write when things are stable in the future, and he will bring his family with him.

Early the next morning, Yang Shu took the plan and the waterwheel model to the county town to find the Chu Gan brothers.

On the side of the Chu family, the water mill that was donated earlier was tested in several places and found to be feasible, so a lot of things were rewarded. The Chu family in Jingdu only wanted the name, but they didn’t want anything. They all sent it to Qingfeng County. The copy is for Yang Shu.

In addition, the Chu family in Kyoto also promised some benefits, such as giving two shops in Kyoto, buying a house in Fucheng, and even asking Chu Gan for a place to go to Jingdu Guozi Academy .

I should have been very happy, but because the business was affected, that joy was halved in an instant.

The father and son were discussing the countermeasures when they heard that Yang Shu was here, and Chu Gan was the first to leave the study, "Where is it, please come in quickly," Chu Gan laughed twice, "Boss Yang is so smart, I think He must have thought of a way to deal with it when he came to us."

"Behind, it will be there soon."

As soon as the servant finished speaking, Yang Shu entered the yard. Chu Gan hurried over and said happily, "Boss Yang, you are here."

Yang Shu nodded, "Well, I'm here to buy some things in the county, and I'll tell you something along the way."

Without saying those polite words, Yang Shu was led into their study by Chu Gan, and went straight to the point and took out the plan that Yang Sanlang had written last night, "My plan is to penetrate the market and let the word Dongshan people will remember."

He is not very good at other things, but Yang Shu is confident that he can do it when it comes to eating.

After everyone in Kyoto has eaten the food they made, the things produced in Dongshan Village will naturally be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The meal plan was written in great detail, and it was well planned. There was no problem. The only thing I was worried about was that Chu Heng pointed to the types of food on it and asked Yang Shu, "Do you know how to do these?"

"I can do everything written on it. I plan to open another workshop in Dongshan Village, specializing in making these snacks."

Chu Heng and the others didn't know how these small snacks were, so they didn't respond to Yang Shu's matter for a while, Yang Shu didn't care, and took out the waterwheel model again, "The waterwheel is ready, and the autumn harvest just happened to be over, you can smoke it Let’s go to the village some time to have a look, and then I’ll make these snacks for you to try, and it’s not too late to make a decision.”
