Bad Boy Farming

Chapter 35 Fishing in troubled waters

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, but the rain did not stop. The people in Jiangnan were used to the rain for half a month, but the people in Zhangjia Village were not as calm as before.Zhang Lanshi watched the water in the yard overflowing his ankles, and moaned in worry, "What does God want to do, it should stop!"

"Er Niu, go out and play." Meng Meng lied in Er Niu's arms, staring at the pouring rain outside, "Are you okay?"

"Hey, Erniu will play with you in the house." Erniu is also worried, he can't make tofu if the rain doesn't stop, and the family has no income. The second is that when it rains, the temperature is low, and a layer of mold can grow in three days The tofu just changed its taste, "Oh..."

"Don't worry. It's going to rain, and your mother is going to get married, so I won't worry about it anymore." Qi Sheng persuaded, "Why don't you tell me at this time, what are you going to do after the fermented bean curd is ready? "

"When I went to buy cloth, shopkeeper Liu told me that once he went to Lin'an Mansion to buy goods, he took out dried incense for dinner on the way, and the people at the same table asked him where he bought the dried tofu. I heard that Lin'an Mansion No one thinks of making dried bean curd and fermented bean curd, so I just want to go to Lin'an Prefecture someday. It is the seat of Jiangnan Prefecture, and there must be a lot of people who need dried tofu and fermented bean curd. It won’t be long before there’s an oversupply on the docks.”

Qi Sheng was startled, "How much do you plan to sell?"

"I have calculated carefully, if a small jar of fermented bean curd sells for 60 renminbi, and the net profit is [-] renminbi after deducting the cost, then at least [-] jars of fermented bean curd will be sold in a month to cover the money earned by the last person working outside. If every day There are more than [-] households in Zhangjia Village, and nearly [-] jars of fermented bean curd are produced in one month, and these are enough for the entire Maoling County to feed for the first half of the year. If it doesn’t develop outside, what will happen.”

After Er Niu finished speaking, Qi Sheng was really stunned, and sighed for a long time, "Your heart is really big."

"This is just my plan, and the actual situation will not be known until I visit Lin'an Mansion." Er Niu felt embarrassed.

"Don't go to Lin'an Mansion either." Qi Sheng glanced at the child nestled in Er Niu's arms, "What about the children at home once you go out?"

When Er Niu was talking, Xiao Niu and Jian Dou didn't dare to intervene. When Qi Sheng said this, Jian Dou said, "I'll go with Uncle Er Niu."

"Let the third aunt help take care of them for a while." Er Niu had already thought about it in his mind when he had nothing to do these days.

"I won't go!" Jiandou, who has always been obedient, shook his head vigorously, "I don't care, I will go wherever Second Uncle goes!"

"Don't make trouble, I have something to do when I go out, not to play."

"I don't..." Jian Dou's eyes turned red when he saw the stern look on Er Niu's face.

Er Niu realized belatedly, Jiandou doesn't want to eat Baijiafan anymore?Seeing him wiping tears silently, Er Niu subconsciously looked at Qi Sheng.

"Leave this to me, you just make fermented bean curd at home." Qi Sheng said simply, but felt a little uneasy.

"You?" Er Niu's eyelids twitched, "Are you going?" Pointing to his bandaged arm.

"Isn't your fermented bean curd ready yet?" Qi Sheng said, "Besides, I don't need to personally come forward for this matter. I will send two people from Qingzhou to help you. How about it, how about me?"

If you don't take advantage of it, you're a bastard.But Er Niu felt that he didn't have a deep friendship with Qi Sheng, "Well, what if you want to employ someone?"

"My family has been a carpenter for hundreds of years, and I still need a few people to run the business." Qi Sheng said with a smile, "If it weren't for you, Xiao Mengmeng wouldn't know where she is at this time."

He said that Er Niu was relieved, "Then I will thank you on behalf of the villagers."

"That's out of the question." Qi Sheng pointed to the clothes on his body, "Should I thank you for helping me take a bath last night?"

Er Niu's face became hot, "No, no need."

"That's right." For some reason, Qi Sheng was inexplicably afraid that Er Niu would reject him to participate, and he couldn't think of a reason why Qi Sheng simply didn't want to, anyway, he would figure it out one day.

Er Niu is not familiar with ancient times at all. He has never dared to do anything big. Apart from not being able to guarantee that the people in Zhangjia Village will follow him, he also has no idea how to open the ancient market. Now that Qi Sheng is available, Er Niu suddenly feels that he The burden on the shoulders was lightened.Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a pot of eggs that he put in the corner, "Qi Sheng, let your people come over in half a month."

"Why?" Qi Sheng asked.

"At that time, your injury should be almost healed, and the eggs I marinated with lime, plant ash and wheat bran two days ago should be able to eat." Er Niu said.

Qi Sheng was so curious about Erniu's pickled eggs, and he had made it clear to the housekeeper when he came from Qingzhou that he would send a letter to himself whenever there was something in the shop that made him difficult to decide.Qi Liang didn't receive any letters every day in the county, so Qi Sheng simply stayed at ease.It's just, "The road at the entrance of the village is so narrow, you should find a way to widen the road first."

Er Niu has secretly bought all the ingredients for the gunpowder. It is not difficult for a passionate man to make a simple gun. The most difficult thing is that there is no gunpowder in the Maoling county government, only the army has it.How to blow up the first line of sky without others doubting it is very important for the former Er Niu.But after seeing Qi Sheng's martial arts and his warm heart, Er Niu decided to watch it for a while. If this person is trustworthy, then the matter of blowing up the mountain will be left to him.

Qi Sheng didn't know that he was targeted by the second just because of his kindness just now.

Seeing Zhang Lao Wu, who came two days earlier, push the door open and come in, Qi Sheng frowned, "This man can't even knock."

Maverick stood up abruptly, "What are you doing here again?"

Er Niu really wanted to ask Zhang Lao Wu how he offended Mavericks, why he looked like a class enemy when he saw him.

Zhang Laowu felt that he was an adult, so he should be more magnanimous, ignoring Maverick, "Second Uncle, the river is flooded, let's go fishing?"

"Okay." Xiao Mengmeng has seen people fishing, and before Er Niu opened his mouth, he pulled Er Niu's clothes, "Er Niu, let's go, fish, fish."

"Be honest." Er Niu saw that he was stiffing his neck and wanted to go outside, "Fifth, you go and call Wide Angle to come over."

"Why call him, we can go by ourselves." Zhang Laowu knew that he was not very popular in the village.But who told him that there were many brothers in his family, and the four brothers married their wives, and his family was so poor that they couldn't get rid of it. Naturally, no one would say goodbye to him.Year after year of delays, Zhang Laowu was a little bit self-defeating, guarding the mountains to survive starvation, and over time he became a well-known gangster in the village.

Er Niu didn't think too much about it, "You help me hold Mengmeng?"

"Ah?" Zhang Laowu looked at the child holding Erniu's thigh, according to him, the child who slapped must be honest.It's just that Er Niu is kind-hearted, and the child who I don't know where I picked up hurts like my own son every day.

However, just because of Er Niu's kindness, Zhang Laowu dared to put up his face and ask Er Niu to teach him.

When Mengmeng heard that Erniu was taking him there, Le's body trembled, "You, hurry up and call Guangjiao."

Er Niu sighed, "Mengmeng, be good, I want to call him brother, and when I see Guangjiao, I want to call him uncle."

"I know, I know, let's go quickly." Then he crawled into Er Niu's arms, patted him on the shoulder and urged him to get up quickly.

Er Niu saw that Jiandou wanted to follow, "Take care of your Uncle Qi at home."

Jian Dou groaned, and the boy who had been imprisoned for a few days was not happy, Er Niu said, "You go out too and turn around, what should Uncle Qi do if he wants to drink tea and shit?"

Qi Sheng's head was full of black lines, "Can you stop talking about the two things together?"

"Remember next time." Er Niu waved his hand, "Xiao Niu, go and carry the bucket, let's go."

Jian Dou looked at Er Niu's back, sullenly, "Uncle Qi, do you want to pee? I'll help you go."

"I advise you not to think about it. It's raining so hard outside, Erniu has to take care of Mengmeng and Mavericks, and if they can't take care of you, even if you run around, Erniu will send you back .”

Seeing that he was serious about what he said, and hearing his second uncle say that he was amazing, Jian Dou froze instantly.

Er Niu thought he and Guang Jiao were the only ones, but when they got to the river, people were everywhere in a mess, and now they dared not let Meng Meng down.Mengmeng doesn't need to lie down in the room anymore, even if she is hugged by Guangjiao, she won't make a fuss.

Seeing Erniu rolling up his trousers, the fifth child said, "Second Uncle, there are leeches and snakes in the river, be careful."

"Is it a poisonous snake?"

The fifth child said, "No, poisonous snakes seldom come down the mountain."

Er Niu was relieved, his eyes flashed, and he thought about what to make for lunch.

When they reached the river, some people had already started to catch fish.Er Niu looked at the fish that kept rolling upwards, and once again saw the abundance of ancient materials.But when the village saw Erniu coming, they also expected Erniu to find a way to teach themselves to make money, and asked Erniu to catch fish with them.

Er Niu never refused anyone who came, and within an hour, the wooden barrel brought by Maverick was full.

However, Maverick stayed far away from the barrel, and when he heard his second brother call him home, Maverick looked at him timidly.

"Come here! I can still eat you." Er Niu looked at Guang Jiao and Lao Wu while talking, "Would you like to eat at my house today?"

The two hurriedly shook their heads, "No, my dad also caught a lot of fish." Putting Mengmeng down and running away.

Qi Sheng was very surprised when he saw it. He remembered that Guang Jiao wished he could live in Er Niu's house every day, "Xiao Niu, what happened to you when you were catching fish?"

Xiao Niu remembered the second brother's explanation, and shook his head, "I'll help the second brother kill the fish, but the second brother said that I will cook fish to eat today. But you can't eat it."

"I'll be fine if I eat a little bit." Qi Sheng had a broken bone, so he didn't think his arms would swell after eating a little fish.

Maverick shook his head and walked out, muttering, "Oh, it's hard to be a good person."

"What are you talking about?" Er Niu saw that he was frowning, "Aren't there just two snakes, you dare to fight wild boars and you are still afraid of snakes."

"Second brother, can we stop eating messy things." Xiao Niu sighed, "I don't know if people think that our family is too poor to eat."

"Didn't you tell me every day that our family is poor, so we have to count our days." Er Niu reminded, "Who thinks I use oil kang cakes again in the morning?"

"Second brother..." Er Niu shuddered in a twists and turns voice, "Don't make trouble, go pick vegetables, if you don't want to eat snakes, I won't break your neck and dump them in your stomach."

Xiao Niu was overjoyed, Er Niu said again, "However, don't tell Qi Sheng."

Xiao Niu doesn't know this saying, but he likes to see people he doesn't like make a fool of himself. Unfortunately, Qi Dangjia, who asks his second brother to help him take a bath and change clothes every day, is one of them.
