Bad Boy Farming

Five days passed in a blink of an eye, and with the joint efforts of adults and children in the village, the half-mile road that was blown up was finally cleared. Just as everyone was digging the foundation to build a house, the children in the village shouted, "Uncle Erniu! "

"Brother Er Niu!"

"He Dong's family is here, right at your door!"

Er Niu was talking about the layout of the house, when he heard this, he asked reflexively, "Why is he here again?"

"Of course Dong's family has something to do when they come here. If there's nothing to do, why run here!" The person standing next to him said something and pushed him away, "Go back quickly, you are not needed here!"

"Yes!" The village head received, "This time, we can't drive Dong He away!"

"Uncle, when did I chase him away?" A black line burst out on Er Niu's forehead.

"Nothing is the best! Tell Mr. He that we have already built a workshop, and it won't be long before we can make Biandan and fermented bean curd every day."

"Okay!" Er Niu said that to He Ping, and He Ping said in surprise, "Your movements are so fast!"

"It's okay, the main thing is to make money, otherwise, who will care about me." Er Niu poured him a bowl of hot water, "Come here today to pull taro?"

"Yes!" He Ping said, "I see that you also have taro on the mountain here, how about selling it to me?"

Er Niu shook his head, "No, we need to save the seeds! You can look elsewhere, taro is easy to grow, you don't have to buy it from me."

"I've seen it, there are some, but there are too few."

Er Niu opened his mouth and said, "Then you have a limited supply."

"Limited limit?" He Ping looked at him, "What kind of limited method?"

"For example, [-] servings of taro food are provided every day, and each table is limited to one serving. First come, first served. Advance reservations are not accepted."

He Ping thought for a while, glanced at Erniu, and hesitated, "Is this possible? I'm afraid of offending people, and you know that we are business people, and a sour scholar can catch us and scold us."

"Why not, isn't the five-spice powder you got from me limited?" Er Niu said casually, "If someone doesn't want to, you can explain the truth in front of everyone, and if it's all sold out at once, others will still eat it." what?"

"Then I'll give it a try." He Ping recalled being chased to buy preserved eggs every day recently, "Can we produce another batch of preserved eggs a year ago?"

Er Niu didn't talk nonsense with him this time, "The weather is too cold. It has snowed at this time of year in previous years. When it snows, boats and vehicles can't go. Even if you can ship the goods, you can't transport them back to Lin'an. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, you can get two Come on a boat."

Seeing his sincerity, He Ping nodded.Thinking of the earnings from the restaurant in the past few months, as well as his father's praise, he smiled, "How much five-spice powder do you have left, sell it to me at once."

Er Niu opened the door of the grain room, pointed to the cloth bag with the rice, "Just that bag, I guess it weighs [-] catties, if you take it all, you must use it until next summer."

"I understand, it's just to satisfy the appetite of the guests."

"Children can be taught!" So quickly learned hunger and thirst marketing, "There is a way to make money!"

"You boy!" He Ping was annoyed and funny, "How old are you!" Then he took out his money bag, "You keep the ten taels of silver, if you don't have enough, it's gone."

"Enough!" Xiao Niu stretched out his hand to grab it away, He Ping was startled, seeing him put it into his arms, "Here for your second brother, what are you doing with so much money for a child!"

Er Niu felt ashamed, and decided instantly, when Mengmeng went to study in the county, he would throw Maverick there, so as not to stay at home to anger him!

"Leave him alone, he is our iron rooster, and he won't lose the money even if he loses himself!" He shook his head and sighed, "Come with me to the entrance of the village, everyone in our village is looking forward to seeing you."

"What is there for me to see?" He Ping walked to the door and looked back again. He saw Maverick took out the silver, and the other two children stretched out their hands to see, "I found that the children in your family are all savages!"

"Human spirit?" Er Niu snorted, "I'm a good hand when put together!"

When the villagers heard that He Ping said that he would send people over after the next year, and that he wanted as many preserved eggs as there were in Zhangjia Village, they immediately became overwhelmed.

One said, Mr. He, don't leave today!

The other said, Dong He, come to my house for lunch.

Someone followed behind and said, my family kills chickens!

Some couldn't compete, so they blurted out, my family kills pigs!

As soon as this remark came out, the surroundings became quiet, Er Niu said, "Go quickly, and leave me some butcher's vegetables."

"Yes, leave us some pig-killing dishes too!"

The face of the man who was blowing water and blowing his hair became hot, and he didn't say anything for a long time. Village head Zhang slapped him on the shoulder, "If you don't help chop wood, what are you doing standing here!"

Er Niu saw the commotion around, and everyone looked at He Ping as if he were a rare animal, "Everyone, calm down, Mr. He's family came here today not only to pull the bastard, but also to pull my taro out."

"What? Can taro be sold for money?" the village head asked in surprise.

Er Niu said, "I don't know yet. Qi Sheng said that he saw other people eating taro, but no one here eats taro. Let's put taro in the wine shop and try it first. If it can be sold, it will be fully planted on the beach in our village next year." Taro."

"That's it." The excited villagers gave up half their thoughts, but for the sake of money, they still said, "Dong He's going to bother to sell the taro from Erniu's family. Look at Erniu's taro. House, we are all worried that the heavy snow will collapse his house in the future!"

Hearing this, He Ping took a deep look at everyone. No wonder Erniu is such a freak here, "Don't worry, Erniu is my own brother. I will sell his taro no matter what!"

Er Niu Xin Xiangye only has one younger brother!However, seeing how the villagers looked at him suddenly changed, forget it, let him go for a while!

When they got home, Er Niu said, "He Ping, sit down first, and I'll dig and order some food."

He Ping saw Xiao Niu and the others lying on the ground and doodling. He still remembered the scene when he took out the money earlier. He waved to Er Niu, signaling to leave him alone, and asked, "Xiao Niu, what are you doing?"

Apart from his family, Maverick only had money in his eyes, and he didn't even look at He Ping, saying, "Writing!"

"Why don't you use a brush to write? What can you write with a fire stick?" He Ping felt amused when he saw the three children looking up in disregard of their busy schedule.

Hearing the laughter, Xiao Niu put down the fire stick in his hand, and sighed, "The pen, ink, paper and inkstone are so expensive, my family can't afford them."

"Where's the money I gave you today?" He Ping felt happy when he saw that he was frowning so small that he could kill mosquitoes.

"That money can't be moved, keep it to build a house!" Xiao Niu heard the adults say that no girl would marry the second brother if the house was not refurbished.

"Your second brother is so smart, making money is very easy for him, so don't save him."

Maverick looked thoughtful, He Ping asked, "Think about it, am I right?"

"I heard from my second brother that a plate of vegetables in your restaurant costs ten copper coins, isn't it?"

He Ping didn't understand why he asked this, and didn't think much about it, "Yes, the vegetables in Lin'an Mansion are too expensive."

Xiao Niu didn't hear this, but he knew that he could buy the eggs laid by his ten old hens by selling a little vegetables... "I heard that you told the villagers that the second brother is your real brother?"

"Of course! It's my blessing to know your second brother."

"Oh, if that's the case, then your brother's brother can't even afford a writing brush. Did you give him one?" Maverick asked with his head tilted.

Er Niu staggered as soon as he entered the door, "Zhang Xiaoniu, your skin is itchy again!"

"Second brother? Why are you here so soon?!" Maverick was so frightened that his body trembled. He Ping, who was choked by his words and was speechless, turned his head and saw that Er Niu was holding a long mud stick in his hand. Mud, "How did you do that?"

Xiao Niu hurriedly fetched water, Jian Dou went to look for clothes, Mengmeng grabbed the face cloth and rubbed it in front of Er Niu, raised her neck and raised her little hand, "Wipe."

Er Niu lost all anger and gave Maverick a hard look, "Wait for me!"

Xiao Niu said with a hippie smile, "Second brother, quickly change your clothes, don't get sick."

With a sound of "bang", Er Niu closed the door of the main room, Xiao Niu turned around and said, "He Dong's family, you..."

"Stop!" He Ping has lived for more than 20 years, and this is the first time he has met such a thick-skinned child, "I will bring you a box next time."

"Ignore him!" Er Niu threw the dirty clothes into the washbasin, and picked up the "mud stick" on the ground to scare the calf, "I'll make this for you to eat today!"

Maverick didn't like him, "Second brother, what is this? Did you dig it in the river?"

"You're the smart one!" Er Niu poured a bucket of water, three times and five times, the mud stick changed, and the calf stared at each section, "I, why don't I?" Do you know there is such a thing in the river?"

"Is there anything else in your eyes besides money?" Er Niu gave him a blank look and asked He Ping, "Have you heard of lotus root?"

"Lotus root?" He Ping was startled, and unconsciously stood up straight. "You said it was lotus root?"

Er Niu was surprised now, but he asked with a slight curiosity on his face, "Have you eaten?"

"I ate it once in a restaurant in Kyoto. I only know that it's called lotus root. I don't know where it grows or what it looks like." He Ping was a little uncertain, "I don't know if it's the same as the one in your hand."

"It must be the same!" The traffic and communication here are very blocked, Er Niu stopped talking nonsense, and called Maverick, "Come and light the fire!"

"I'll go." Jian Dou likes to help Erniu cook the pot the most, and every time he sits in front of the pot door, he feels that he is not eating rice.

"Go and play with Mengmeng." Er Niu was afraid that the shameless child would ask He Ping for things, so he could only get people to him.As for Maverick, he was already afraid of Er Niu, and when he saw Er Niu looked at him, he quickly ran into the kitchen.

Er Niu divided the four-section lotus root in half, soaked a small bowl of glutinous rice in half-boiled water, and then began to knead the noodles, planning to make pancakes.

The cake was ready, and the water in the crock was boiled. Er Niu put the lotus root stuffed with glutinous rice, the red dates picked earlier on the mountain, and wolfberries into the crock.

Seeing that he threw in a piece of sucrose, Maverick raised his head and asked, "Second brother, why do you still add sugar when you cook porridge?"

Er Niu took out the cakes in the pot, and seeing that the pot was no longer hot, he said, "Keep the fire on, I'll cook!"

"Huh? The lotus root can still be fried and eaten?" While looking at the pot and the pot, Xiao Niu can still distract himself from what Er Niu is doing. Up and down are the eyes of the heart.

He Ping was eager to know if the lotus root that Er Niu mentioned was the one he had eaten before, and when he saw him cut the lotus root into slices, he couldn't restrain his excitement, "Oh... lotus root, sell it to me, I'll give you five cents A catty of money!"

"Ten essays are not enough!" Er Niu resolutely said.

He Ping felt cold, and asked in a daze, "Why?"
