Little Heran had been playing at home for a few days and was about to go to study. When he left, he dropped a few golden beans and felt uncomfortable when he got Qiuyu, but he didn't show it on the child's face.After sending the child to a private school, he secretly hugged He Zifeng in the carriage for a long time.

He Zifeng hugged Qiuyu and said, "The child will grow up sooner or later!"

Qiuyu said: "I know." Then he was depressed for a while.Obviously just sent the child away, and looked forward to the reunion next month.

Qiuyu's goods were sold out early.He Zifeng is now a small boss, so he doesn't need to point his horses every day. Seeing that Qiuyu is in a bad mood, he wants to accompany him for a while and put the horse in the small courtyard temporarily.Fang sold basket weaving in the county for a while, and asked them to go shopping first, and then come back together when they are done.

Fang’s weaving baskets are sold cheaply, only a few pennies in total. He took more than 40 weaving baskets in total. At that time, he sold more than 20 of them, and the remaining ten or so Fang wanted to sell. Take it back to take up space.A small business that earns a penny or a penny is very profitable.

He Zifeng took Qiuyu around the county.Occasionally, when I ran into a yamen servant patrolling the street, he not only greeted He Zifeng, but also said, "Sister-in-law."

Qiuyu was a little embarrassed.

He Zifeng said: "Your sister-in-law is thin-skinned." On the contrary, she was on the defensive, and the servants all smiled winkingly, planning to go back and gossip. They all knew that He Zifeng had a male daughter-in-law, but they didn't know that she was so handsome.

He Zifeng said to Qiuyu, "That's how they are, they are very naughty, don't take it to heart."

Qiuyu hummed, and there was nothing to do on this street in the county.Qiuyu plans to go to the pharmacy to prepare some Chinese medicinal materials used in marinated ingredients, as well as spices and the like. After buying, she will go to buy big bones and pig offal.

He Zifeng happened to be fine, so he went with Qiuyu, and he didn't bring the horse, so he could help carry it.

Several butchers selling meat are next to each other. After discussing their prices, every family sells at the same price.The quantity of Qiuyu required is large, and it is enough for every household to collect the offal pigs.They were already ready when they came before.Even some worthless leftovers will be given in vain.

As soon as Qiuyu arrived this time, he heard the butcher who had worked with him say, "I'm sorry, there are no pigs and big bones here today."

Qiuyu was taken aback.When I saw the chopping board where the pig was killed, it was clearly there.Said: "Isn't that?"

The butcher said, "Oh, that's decided by someone else."

He Zifeng looked at the other butchers nearby, and found that everyone was listening with their ears pricked up.

After being swept by He Zifeng's gaze, they all turned their faces away a little uncomfortable.He Zifeng said: "Your pig's offal and big stick bones have also been booked out?"

"Yes, it has already been booked out."

"My house has also been booked out." They said this when everything was clearly on the chopping board.

He Zifeng asked another way: "Then have you been booked for tomorrow?"

The butcher closest to him was a little dumb, and said in a heartbeat: "It's also ordered." Then he said: "But...but they haven't paid the money. If you want, you can give you this batch of pigs first. .But it’s not the price I gave you before.” The butcher stuttered at first, but it became smoother after a long time.

He Zifeng said, "How much?"

The butcher said: "Big bones cost ten renminbi, pigs go down to the water for thirty renminbi a catty."

He Zifeng laughed angrily at the price he offered. When did the price of meat with bones become the same as that of pure meat?The other party also said convincingly: "Other customers will give us this price!" A look of firm refusal to be cheap.

Qiuyu said angrily: "We don't want it anymore." Then he took He Zifeng and left here.

These butchers were determined to raise prices, and even when they left, they didn't call them back.

When they were far away, several butchers got together and asked, "Is this the whole business?"

One of them made up his mind and said: "Okay, what's wrong with it, you see they buy so much every day, the good guy sells it for thirty times the price, and they make all the money, let's work together to increase the price, At that time, everyone will be able to make a little money." They say that a good woman can't live without rice, so if they don't sell it to them, they are the ones who are worried.

When they thought that the worthless pig bones and pig offal could be sold at such a price, their hearts became hot.

It is estimated that Qiuyu and the others have become famous. Every day, a few scattered guests come to ask if there is any baby.

The pigs who have always been unlikable have now become sweet pastries.

Since it is a sweet pastry, how could it be possible to sell him at a low price.

……

Qiuyu and He Zifeng walked to the small courtyard and asked, "What should I do?" His business was just right, and he thought that other colleagues would also want to do it, and they would win with their taste, but they didn't expect the butcher who sold the meat to be the first to attack.

He Zifeng said: "They must know the price we are selling, and they are eager to make a profit."

Qiuyu said: "Although we make some money, but cleaning, brine, and firewood all need money, and the scale is not weighed after cooking. If we really follow the price he said, our hard work will be in vain." The other party knew that they couldn't do without this thing, so they bit the price very hard, and it really didn't feel good to be restrained.

But they just found a profitable business, and they have already made repeat customers. It would be a pity if they quit now.

He Zifeng said: "I'll go to the escort agency and talk to the inn later, and let's rest for a few days." Except for the rainy break, he never rested these days.Let him think about it these days.

As for the butchers who set their prices on the ground, he didn't want to cooperate anymore.Now sit on the ground and raise the price, it is not sure what to do in the future.

Qiuyu said: "That's the only way."

Then the two of them went to the escort agency and the inn to explain, and the people on both sides were shocked.The inn's soy sauce bones are famous for selling them, and many traders who come and go like to come to them for a four-pound big stick bone to hug and chew.Then stack the bones high, which is both satisfying and fulfilling.

The cook at the inn also bought the bones out of his own pocket, but no matter what he did, the taste was very bland, far inferior to the salty and tasty ones made here.

Upon hearing this, the manager of the inn also accompanied them in cursing these butchers and chicken thieves, they were no good.

As for the people in the Escort Bureau, it made things worse when they heard about it. They love to eat braised meat.After I bought it, I used the stewed cabbage, some stir-fried peppers, and even the marinade that came with it can be used as next noodles.The few little escorts below went out to escort and wrote letters. They missed both chili sauce and braised meat, and they were waiting to come back and have a big meal.After counting the days, they will be back soon, but the lo mei here has stopped.

He Zifeng said: "Maybe we will get something else to eat." But we haven't figured out what to get. The source of pig bones and pig offal is in the hands of the butchers. Once a few people unite, he really can't do anything .

These people are Qiuyu's diners, although they don't know what they are going to do.But I also hope that they will be released as soon as possible.

He Zifeng went back with Qiuyu.

At this time, Xie Rui ran over quickly and said, "Brother He, the master of our county wants to see you."

When Qiuyu heard that He Zifeng had something to do, she quickly asked him to go to work first.

He Zifeng and Xie Rui went to the county government: "What's the matter with him?"

Why did the master meet such a small person like him?

Xie Rui also frowned: "I guess it's not a good thing." Xie Rui is Zhu Butou's man, and so is He Zifeng, and now Zhu Butou is on the side of the county magistrate.The magistrate of the county is at odds with the master, so it is very meaningful to find He Zifeng at this time.

He Zifeng couldn't figure it out, he just made meritorious service and the master wouldn't kill him.When the soldiers come, they will block the water and cover them with soil. Anyway, take a step and see.

Soon he went to the Yamen.Yamen servants like them just rest outside, and have never walked through the inner hall.

All the way to the Huating Pavilion, the county government building is very good, with one step and one scene inside, as well as the rockery of Taihu Lake.It was shocking to watch, but it was a pity that he had no intention of watching it.

Before he went in, Zhu Tutou was waiting for him outside, and said: "The county magistrate is also inside." This meant to remind him to be careful.

He Zifeng nodded, and then Xie Rui also stayed outside.Only He Zifeng knocked on the door and went in.

The magistrate of the county had met He Zifeng before, and later heard that Zhu Butou reported him. He felt that he wanted to reuse such capable people under his command. He wanted to promote He Zifeng to be the deputy head catcher. Before he could say anything, his master knew up.The master and the magistrate are not dealing with each other, so they are waiting here right now.

After He Zifeng met the two adults.

This is the first time he has seen the master, the master is thin and has a goatee, looks like a scholar.I heard that the master was also a candidate in the past.It was the same class as the county magistrate, but now one is the county magistrate and the other is the master. It can be said that the circumstances are different.

At this moment, the master praised He Zifeng: "Sure enough, you are a class of talents. You made great contributions to the county by bravely killing the male and female Shuangsha before. I have always wanted to see you. It is really extraordinary to see you today."

The magistrate also raised his eyebrows. The master had to fight against him in everything, so why did he reach an agreement on praising He Zifeng?Anyway, it's a good thing.The county magistrate didn't know what kind of medicine was in the master's gourd, so he tentatively said: "It's just right, I want to promote him to be a deputy head arrester, what do you think?"

The master said: "The hero sees the same thing. My lord and I have thought of going together. It's just that He Zifeng has only been here for a short time. If he is promoted too quickly, I'm afraid he won't be able to convince everyone. But I have thought of a good way for him. Lingshan Village has not appointed anyone to collect the grain tax this year, as long as this is done well, I will personally write the appointment letter for you."

The county magistrate stroked his beard and said, "This matter is still thoughtful by the master."

He Zifeng said: "Thank you, my lord, thank you for your promotion."

Seeing him so upbeat, the two waved him away.As soon as he left, he was questioned by Butou Zhu and Xie Rui who were waiting outside the courtyard.He Zifeng told the truth.

Zhu Butou gasped: "Lingshan Village fails to pay taxes every year, and last year there was a fight with our yamen servants, and several people died."

He Zifeng's eyes flashed and he said, "Oh?"
