Farmer one or two things

Chapter 17 Tea Stall

Because of the need to open a tea stand, Song Tiancai did not prepare the food for the seller.I plan to sell breakfast and food at the tea stand, and also earn more money.Because he is a scholar, he can exempt from taxes on [-] acres of land.His family only has fifteen acres of land, but they have five acres of land left. Song Dashan once mentioned to Song Tiancai that he wanted to count the land of Song Dahai's family under their family name and exempt some taxes.

Song Tiancai disagreed, since the transfer of the land to their family will involve more rights and wrongs.Don't look at Wan's courting his family now, but if the two families have money exchanges, it will be different.What's more, after Song Tiancai has seen too much about Sheng Mi's favor and Mi's hatred, Song Dashan has good intentions, but this may not be a good thing.It is true that Song Tiancai intends to get closer to Song Dahai's family, but he is afraid that his brothers will turn against each other even if they get involved with money.

However, what Song Dashan said reminded Song Tiancai that if the vacant five acres of land were not dealt with in advance, people might miss it.Therefore, Song Tiancai had no choice but to spend 40 taels of silver to buy a good five-mu paddy field. The paddy fields here are divided into two categories.Because the autumn harvest had just passed, Song Tiancai bought a paddy field with seedlings, so he must be in a hurry to sell the field where he had just planted seedlings.Song Tiancai didn't have the low price of Sosokoukou.

If Song Dashan did this, Chen Guizhi would have liked him a long time ago. Instead of Song Tiancai, Chen Guizhi not only did not blame him, but also praised Song Tiancai for his kindness and kindness.The two kinds of treatment, naked and naked, made Song Dashan feel a little depressed, but, one side is the son, the other side is the old wife, Song Dashan can't afford to offend on both sides, so he can only follow Chen Guizhi as an echo.Of course, in his eyes, it is a great good thing for his son Song Tiancai to do this, and it follows his kindness and love to help others.

In the evening, Song Tiancai coaxed Song Xiaobao to sleep, and then he calculated the remaining money in the room.During this period of time, he only went out but not in, and the money was spent like running water, but his purse was also deflated a lot.Buying fields and land, hiring short-term laborers, and daily expenses are all silver.

Although Song Tiancai had 150 taels of silver, he spent 65 taels of silver in just over a month.This spending speed is far greater than Song Tiancai's budget.He originally planned to leave 100 taels to Quanzhou as capital, but now, the tea shop has not been built, and the things have not been purchased, so at least 30 taels of silver should be left to do it.Then take out five taels of silver for pocket money, so that Song Tiancai has 50 taels of silver left, which is half of his originally reserved capital.Fortunately, there is no need to pay land tax this year, and no need to pay out of account money and corvee, which can save a lot of money.

Even so, Song Tiancai didn't know if the 30 taels of silver at the tea stall was enough.It turned out that Song Tiancai was a little strange. There are official roads and traffic here, so why no one thinks about making money.It turns out that it's not that I don't make money, but that the cost is too high.The cost of such an inconspicuous small tea stall is 50 taels. How can ordinary farmers spend so much money on investment.

Every household in Songjia Village is used to being comfortable, and if they have money, they save up to buy fields and land, but few people go into business.Therefore, people in the village can eat enough but not live well.Song Tiancai also understood that if he didn't have the 200 taels of silver as a base, and had the experience and methods of his previous life, he would be powerless.

Seeing less and less money, Song Tiancai felt that earning money was imminent and could not be delayed any longer.Otherwise, the capital will only become less and less every day.The sooner they opened the business, the sooner they would make money. Even if Song Dashan and Chen Guizhi didn't say anything, Song Tiancai knew that their fears were groundless.Afraid of losing money, and afraid that Song Tiancai's confidence would be hit.

After doing farm work, Song Tiancai's deepest feeling is that he will still work hard to earn money in the future, so he should honestly hire someone to plant.Therefore, Song Tiancai was extremely attentive to his first job here, and spent the past few days discussing with Song Dashan for a long time before finally deciding on the construction specifications and appearance of the tea stall house.

After the autumn harvest, the farmers have a lot of leisure time. After everyone sells grain, they will start to get married if they have leftover money.Therefore, Song Tiancai must take advantage of this to invite people to build a tea shed.Song Dashan's popularity is undeniable, and he has formed good ties with most of the people in the village.

So, when he went to invite people to help build the tea stand, many people came.Song Tiancai originally intended to calculate wages on a daily basis, but they are all villagers, and you help me and I help you when building houses, so it's really hard to ask for wages.Only the three bricklayers specially invited by Song Tiancai were paid [-] Wen a day, and the other Songjia Villagers who came to help refused to take money.

Because of this, Song Tiancai discussed with Chen Guizhi that they would also provide breakfast for everyone every day, and there must be one or two hard dishes at noon.It's affection for others to help their family, and they can't be treated badly, otherwise, even if they don't say it, they will care about it in their hearts.

Chen Guizhi also understood these ways of the world, and had agreed with Song Niutou early on to bring her three catties of meat and some pig hearts, intestines, and bones every day.There must be meat dishes on the table at noon, because the harvested rice has not been sold or paid taxes, Chen Guizhi is very confident, and returned with a lot of white noodles.The staple food is white flour steamed buns. This kind of food makes all the villagers who help the Song family very happy. They wish they could save some and bring some to their parents and children.

The tea stalls are almost all built of wood, only the ground is paved with blue bricks.The Song family has their own hills, so they don't need to go through the village to use wood.Song Dashan took people to the top of the mountain to cut a lot of wood and came back, almost without spending money to buy it again.The house is built high, and a large platform is built in front of the door, and the edge is made of wood to keep out the rain, which is very beautiful and tidy.

As for the roof, Song Tiancai was not afraid of trouble and money, and it was paved with red tiles.After the house is roughly completed, it looks very eye-catching and beautiful from a distance.Because he opened a tea stall, Song Tiancai left a lot of space in front of the house and built a simple garage and warehouse to shelter cattle and horses from wind and rain.

Considering that there are too many people to sit in the tea stall room, Song Tiancai laid another piece of blue bricks on the ground, covered with wooden boards, and handmade the ones less than one meter around. The top was woven by Song Dashan himself. There are bamboo curtains, and six tables are placed, people sit inside, shelter from the sun and rain, and can still see the outside situation, which is very suitable for those businessmen who pledge goods.

The stove in the house is also a large stove surrounded by four large pots, and eight stoves for simmering pots and teapots are also built.Taking advantage of the many things to do, Song Tiancai made cabinets and shelves for the remaining wood, as well as multi-compartment cabinets for rice noodles, tea oil, and Mei Zhenshan products. The cabinets were deep enough to hold There are quite a few, and some of them can directly put the jars of pickled plums in them.Of course, Song Tiancai also asked Chen Guizhi to go to the town to buy tea sets, dishes, pots and teapots, and he also took a lot of trouble.

The tables and benches of the tea stand also need to be made into a set, as well as the counter at the entrance of the tea stand. Song Tiancai painted the appearance and handed it over to the carpenter.Song Tiancai's first apprentice in his previous life was a carpenter. To do these things is really a piece of cake for him. If it weren't for the fear of people's suspicion, Song Tiancai would have wanted to do it himself.

However, under the guise of watching the carpenter at work, he added a lot of wooden basins, small tables, small stools and other trivial things to the tea stand.Chen Guizhi was proud of himself, and always whispered to Song Dashan that Song Tiancai was smart, and he was better than ordinary carpenters just after learning. If he hadn't gone to study for the imperial examination, the current carpenters in Songjia Village would have nothing to eat.

In this regard, the thick-skinned Song Tiancai had no guilt at all when he heard it, and he felt good in his heart very stinky.He was more active in doing woodwork like presenting treasures at home, and Song Tiancai patiently refilled the bathtub that was almost broken after use.

He also made a wooden sword and a wooden horse for Song Xiaobao, so that Song Tiancai would follow Song Xiaobao with his wooden horse wherever he went.You can show off with the boys in the village anytime and anywhere, and under the envious eyes of all the friends, sit on the small wooden horse and "drive", "drive", "drive" and ride.

Song Tiancai found it funny when he saw it. This little man has a lot of minds. If others are eager to play, they have to trade things with him to play, and there is no loss at all.Ordinary parents would have told Song Xiaobao that this was wrong and would have to correct it.Unfortunately, Song Xiaobao's father is Song Tiancai.

In Song Tiancai's eyes, Song Xiaobao is called green out of blue and better than blue in blue. He is too good at business, and he will definitely inherit his mantle well in the future, and he is not afraid of being cheated.For this reason, Song Tiancai was very proud of himself and felt that he was able to teach well, and he praised himself in his heart to live up to the addiction of being a father.When I went back at night, I praised Song Xiaobao again, which made Song Xiaobao burst into laughter, turned around, and after a few days Song Xiaobao got tired of playing with the little wooden horse, so he didn't care about it and went to play with other children up.However, I still remember to ask Song Tiancai to bring the little wooden horse home every day, and to take a look at it before going to bed every day.

During these days, Song Dashan and Chen Guizhi were busy with the tea stall, but Song Xiaobao spent a lot of time with Song Tiancai.Father and son can be regarded as a pair of living treasures, Song Xiaobao was originally very obedient and introverted, but under the influence of Song Tiancai all day long, he became much more mischievous, and almost went to the house to expose the tiles.When Chen Guizhi took over Song Xiaobao again, he complained about Song Tiancai for the first time.

On the day when all the tea stalls were completed, Song Tiancai was very happy. Why, because of his careful planning this time, only half of the 30 taels budget was used.This shows that he has done a good job of increasing income and reducing expenditure. When he was happy, Song Tiancai's problem of extravagance came again. He invited the people who built the house to eat, and bought a pig with a family in the village for a tael of silver. With two catties of pork per person, half a fan of pork is gone.Chen Guizhi was very distressed, but he couldn't bear to talk about his son. He looked at Song Dashan smiling cheerfully, so he could only hold his breath and scold Song Dashan for setting a bad example for Song Tiancai when they were alone at night, and not paying attention to money.

However, Song Dashan has a broad heart, and he is used to being told by Chen Guizhi, so he doesn't think there is anything wrong with it. When he thinks about the compliments the village has given to their family these days, he feels very happy.He even felt that it was good for his son to be like him, with a touch of love and a good job.As for the old wife's nagging, Song Dashan said: If you are a man, you can't care about it with a menopausal woman.Of course, the term menopause also came from Song Tiancai.

With extra money, Song Tiancai's heart became more active. He always felt that it was too hard for him to rely on his legs for transportation here.As a modern person, I really can't understand the benefits of convenient transportation, especially after he stayed in ancient times for two months.Therefore, with the money left over from the tea stall, Song Tiancai wanted to buy a cow in addition to buying some tea.

In fact, according to the Song family's family situation, it is still affordable to buy a cow.The fact is also the same. Before Song Tiancai passed through, the Song family had a cow.Unfortunately, after Liu Cai eloped, the Song family lost their money again.Song Tiancai wanted to take medicine again, and the Song family wanted to pay back the favor, so he sold the cow as a last resort.Otherwise, the Song family would not be able to support Song Tiancai before going out to borrow money on the day when Song Tiancai passed through.

This autumn harvest, although the Song family hired part-time workers, Song Tiancai deeply felt the benefits of animal power.If it weren't for the cows from Song Niutou's family to help shed their shells, they wouldn't be so busy.At that time, Song Tiancai was already thinking about buying a cow.

It's just that buying land and building tea sheds later on will cost money.Song Tiancai decided to put it on hold before making plans, and now that he had spare money in his hand, he regained his desire to buy cattle.

Talk to Song Dashan about this, come on, Song Dashan is not used to having no cattle at home all of a sudden, all kinds of inconveniences.Even Chen Guizhi, who was always stingy, agreed in his heart without saying anything.Thinking that he had been here for so long, Song Tiancai, who hadn't been to the town yet, planned to take the whole family to the town to have fun while buying cattle.I also went to see how the tea houses in the town were opened, not to mention stealing teachers, but also as a reference.

So, the family chose a sunny day and went to the town in Song Niutou's ox cart.

Along the way, Song Xiaobao was very excited, and his small eyes never stopped watching.Chen Guizhi used to be worried that Song Xiaobao was young, and was afraid that he would be taken to a crowded place, and it would be bad if he accidentally met Pai Huazi.Therefore, even though Song Xiaobao is two years old, his scope of activities is generally within the one-third of an acre of Songjia Village. At most, when Liu Cailian was around, he took him back to Liujia Village a few times.

So, this time Song Xiaobao went to the town to ride an ox cart, like a bird in a cage, he found everything strange.Song Tiancai coaxed Song Xiaobao to sleep in his arms for a while, promising that he would go to the town to eat delicious food when he woke up.Song Xiaobao got up early, his eyes were tired from looking at it, and soon he fell asleep in a daze on the bumpy ox cart.
