husband in another world

Chapter 31 Signing a Long-Term Deal

"You can sell ducks in the town. You can sell them for twelve or thirty yuan a catty at most, but the price in our village has always been eleven yuan per catty if someone accepts them. I don't want to lower the price. Let's just go with that. If you agree, I can get you the money now."

Aunt Shen said: "It should be, there is no reason to give cheap to outsiders, but expensive to villagers."

"That's fine. I have a written contract here. I'll read it to you. It's okay, just press your fingerprint."

Aunt Shen was so bluffed that she could stuff a big egg into her mouth, "Shen Mo, you can read?"

Shen Mo nodded and said: "Brother Jing has been practicing calligraphy these days, and my younger brother and I have followed him to learn. Although we don't know most of the characters at present, we know the commonly used ones."

Aunt Shen was so shocked that she couldn't speak, it was too wasteful, didn't she burn too much money?He even taught Shuang'er how to read! Did Zhou Jing dig something, or did he really earn money from doing business in the town as rumored by the villagers?

Shen Mo read the contract, and Aunt Shen had no objection. Shen Mo paid her a tael of silver and three hundred cash, and Aunt Shen pressed her fingerprint.

Aunt Shen took the money and said happily: "I'll catch ducks for you right now, you wait here!"

Eighteen fat ducks had their feet tied up, Aunt Shen was afraid of pecking at Shen Mo again, so she tied up the mouths of the ducks on purpose.

When Wang Dali came back in the evening, Aunt Shen told about the duck sale, and also specifically mentioned the fact that Shen Mo and Lin Lin practiced calligraphy with Zhou Jing, she shook her head and said, "What do you think about Zhou Jing? One pair is not enough, and they are raising two together. Could it be that Shen Lin was raised by him as rumored in the village? Otherwise, why are they used for food and clothing and also for calligraphy! Look at the materials that the two pairs sent. Well, even the coarse cloth that is reserved for work can only be afforded by wealthy households in the village. Sure enough, there is no wind without waves, Shen Lin and Zhou Jing may really be unclear!"

"Mom, I'm done eating. I'll go into the room and lie down for a while. I'm too tired today."

"Go, go into the room and sleep!" Aunt Shen looked at the tired Wang Dali distressedly, and felt that she was such a good son, handsome and good-natured, what was it that she was inferior to last week Jing, why did you let that bastard get shit luck, and your son will suffer like this!

Shen Mo and Shen Lin returned to Zhou's house with the ducks in their hands, and the three of them killed all the ducks, and left the hairs to dry, so that they could be used as quilts or clothes in winter.

The duck head, duck feet, duck intestines, etc. are all cooked separately, and the seasoning of each pot of soup is different.There was still a lot of duck blood, Zhou Jing didn't want to sell it, so he made them a duck blood vermicelli soup.

Shen Mo and Shen Lin's eyes lit up after eating it, they never knew duck blood could be eaten like this!

After the duck was cooked, Shen Mo and Shen Lin tried it first. Shen Mo liked spicy food, but Shen Lin didn't like spicy food. The two brothers happened to be representatives of the two factions.But no matter which faction they ate, they nodded their heads again and again, thinking that this thing can definitely make money.

Shen Mo gave a thumbs up, full of praise.

"Brother Jing, the duck head is also delicious. I used to eat duck, but the duck head had little meat, and no one wanted to chew it. But the duck head you made is so delicious, it seems like an addiction. After eating one, I still want to eat it." The second one, give those men who are good at wine a few to drink, and they will surely drink until tomorrow morning!"

Zhou Jing knew that Shen Mo had exaggerated, but he was still overjoyed.He has a completely unusual meaning to Shen Mo, and Shen Mo to him.A very small thing or even a trivial matter, only Shen Mo gave it affirmation, and Zhou Jing felt that everything had a special meaning

"Our duck products will definitely sell well tomorrow!" Zhou Jing patted his chest confidently.

Shen Mo's clothes making business has been calculated, and the next day he stayed at home to make clothes, and Zhou Jing led Shen Lin out to do business.

This day, Shen Mo was not living peacefully at home, and his heart was agitated, fearing that their sale would not go well.It wasn't until the farmers had dinner that Zhou Jing and the others finally came back in the mule cart.

Shen Mo pounced on to look through the small pannier first, and then looked at the small drawers on the counter. They were all empty. Shen Mo knew that the business was done, but he still asked worriedly: "It's all sold?"

Zhou Jing smiled and said, "It's all sold!"

Shen Lin was so happy that he opened his mouth wide and bared his big white teeth, his face flushed with excitement.

"Brother, it's a pity that you didn't come today. You don't even know that when our duck products are released, they are the only ones. There is no such practice in the town! Do you still remember the first day we sold them? The old man who led the children to buy sausages? He came again today. He heard that we launched duck products, so he didn’t try it this time, and he bought the duck skeletons with the most meat!”

"It's not over yet. Once we got addicted to eating delicious food, he recommended us to his neighbors. Those old men who wanted to drink came, and when they saw that there was no meaty skeleton, they blamed us for not making more. In the end, I had to buy something else."

"I knew that this kind of food would definitely be popular, the thoughts of the gentlemen who have the best wine!"

Shen Lin agreed: "Really, they buy it as if they don't need money, and they have to grab a lot of it! An old man and a lady almost got into a fight because our family has few duck feet, and she wants to buy him. Buying, the two of them competed for a long time in front of the stall, and they looked stupid at the sellers next to them, and asked me if our things don’t cost money?”

Shen Mo laughed foolishly for a while, and suddenly thought of something, he got up and went to touch Zhou Jing's arms, and took out a big money bag at once.

There were broken silver and copper plates in the purse, and he and Shen Lin worked together to count for a while before finishing counting.

"Two pennies worth 850 coppers, oh my god, there are so many, our daily net profit is 870 five cents!" Shen Mo couldn't believe it. He used to work so hard to earn a penny, but now he can earn 800 pennies a day. Duowen, be consistent!

Zhou Jing said with a smile: "This is just the beginning. We are not yet familiar with the market, so we don't dare to do so much. After a while, we will definitely increase the amount. By then, we may be able to make a consistent profit in a day!"

"Yiguan?" Shen Mo was a little dizzy, feeling like he dared not even dream like this.

"Our family will earn more in the future, I believe your husband is capable." Zhou Jing moved closer to Shen Mo's ear, and said in a voice of only two people: "Believe in your own eyesight, I am the man you picked up , I have nothing to do with you."

Shen Mo glanced at Shen Lin in a panic, and saw that Shen Lin was so focused on the money that he didn't pay attention to his whispering, so he was relieved.

After dinner, Shen Mo and Shen Lin continued to go to the village to collect ducks.The ones who were selected were those who had never bullied Shen Mo when he was a scoundrel like Wang Jing, and had good character.Since the ducks are paid in cash, there is nothing wrong with them, and they are given sugar water.There is no tea in the village, and if there is a bowl of sugar water, it is used to entertain distinguished guests.

The life of Zhou's family is getting up day by day, even a wall as high as two people can't stop the prosperity inside, especially after Zhou's large-scale harvest of ducks for a few days, the village once again became angry because of rumors about Zhou's family. everywhere.

The weather in early summer has begun to gradually lengthen, and the idle peasants moved a bench and sat on the small road in the village, talking shortly.

"I heard that the Zhou family has some kind of duck business in the town. They need thirty or forty ducks in two days, and they have already been purchased by several families in our village?"

"Really, fake?" Wang Fen didn't believe it. She knew what Zhou Jing looked like best. That little rascal grew up under her nose, and he was still in business. He deserved the compensation for his fur trousers.

The man at the front said: "Really, really! I saw the two sons of the Zhou family collect ducks from Aunt Shen's house on the first day. At that time, I wondered why his family used so many ducks, but they didn't take it seriously. A few days ago, my aunt’s cousin told me that Zhou Jing led Shen Lin out of a stall in the town, selling sausages and duck products, all of which are exquisite food, so expensive! Even the shriveled duck head with no meat at his stall has somehow become so valuable. It costs tens of pennies a catty, and the townspeople have to queue up to buy it! Most of the time, the scene seems to be free of money!"

Wang Fen said: "What you said is too exaggerated! How could so many people buy it? If the business in the town is so good, why don't we sell a lot of vegetables in my farm every day!"

"I'm not exaggerating. You didn't see it. An old man and a lady almost got into a fight over who bought the last pound of duck!"

Shen Wen interjected: "I don't know what the rich people in the town think, but the duck head tastes delicious, but it's still bones, and it still tastes like meat. It's only [-] yuan a catty for fat and thin, buy it here It can be used for both oil and stir-fry, so affordable!”

"We think like this, but the rich men in the town don't think like this. What kind of taste do they pay attention to when they eat! It is said that the duck is delicious in the world when it is drunk and eaten! There are many people who buy it!"

Wang Fen said sourly: "Oh, didn't the Zhou family get rich this time? I don't know if he bought the homestead where his family lived. It has to be 27 or 25 square feet, and it costs [-] taels of silver anyway." Bar?"

Before anyone could answer her question, the old lady came over.What was strange was not her, but the clothes in her hands.There were actually fine cotton fabrics in those few clothes, the color of the fabric was light and elegant, and it didn't look like the red and green style of the villagers.Only when you go to the town can you see this style worn by rich young masters.

"Oh my god, Mrs. Shen, where did you get such a good material? You went out to pick up gold bricks!" Wang Fen said, grabbing the clothes.

Mrs. Shen is not old at heart, she has been on guard against her for a long time, she dodged lightly and dodged her.

"Don't mess around, the material is expensive, who cares if it's damaged or dirty, neither I nor you can afford it!"

Wang Fen curled her lips and clicked twice.

"Isn't this from your house? It was made for the son of the town. Since when did you know the people in the town?"

Aunt Shen said: "It's not the people in the town, it's the two twins of the Zhou family! They entrusted me to do it."

"What? It turned out to be those two pairs?" Wang Fen's eyes widened and almost fell out.

Clothes made of such good materials are all made, but it's not that the Zhou family has made money in the town.

Wang Fen said unhappily: "I didn't say you, Aunt Shen, Zhou Jing had already bought ducks from your house, why don't you want to tell the villagers about this good thing!"

Aunt Shen said impatiently: "What are you reporting? The Zhou family's own business, you can buy whoever you want, that is to say, you can still control it!"

Fascinated by Wang Fen's self-confidence, she said disapprovingly, "That's not necessarily the case."

"Okay, I won't tell you. I have to send it to someone quickly. The clothes have been there for several days."

Most people in the village still have wooden doors at this time, and they are usually not tied, and they can be opened with a light push.But Zhou's house is the kind of tall and big iron-covered door in the town with two lacquered red doors nailed with silver nails. It is usually closed tightly. If you want to enter, you need to knock on the beast head ring first.

I don't know if the iron gate is too majestic. When I faced it, I knew that the people living inside were peasants like her, but I couldn't help being in awe, and didn't dare to knock after knocking a few times.

After a while, someone came to the door and asked, 'Who? '.

"It's me, Aunt Shen. I'll deliver the clothes."

The door opened slowly, and Shen Lin poked his head out, "Aunt Shen, come in!"

This is the first time for Aunt Shen to come to Zhou's house. When she entered the yard, she didn't think much of it when she saw the empty yard with no root vegetables. She just felt that it was a pity to waste such a big yard.But when she looked up and saw the eaves of the carved and painted buildings in the yard, the two lifelike town house beasts squatting on the roof, and the exquisitely carved window partitions, Aunt Shen felt that she hadn't entered Zhou's house, but It was because he strayed into the house of an old man in the town by mistake, and didn't dare to make a sound when his feet landed for a while.

Shen Lin led her into the living room. Zhou Jing's living room was spacious and bright. He didn't consider the large windows and lack of warmth in winter. The next piece is golden.

Zhou Jing was wearing a light blue gown, standing quietly in the room, his demeanor immediately became that of a master.

"Aunt Shen is here, sit down." Shen Mo walked down from the slum and sat on the chair opposite her.

"This is Zhou Jing, I don't dare to recognize how magnificent I am wearing this long gown." Aunt Shen was a little cautious, and moved uneasily.

Zhou Jing laughed and said, "My husband did it himself. It's because of his good craftsmanship that it makes me feel refreshed."

When I was in the Shen family, Shen Mo did all the needlework for the seven members of the Shen family, including the Shen brothers, and Wang Chunhua didn't even touch it.

However, after all, Aunt Shen is an old woman who has been sewing all her life, and her skills must be much better than Shen Mo's.If you show her the ready-to-wear made by Shen Mo, there are still many faults that can be picked out.

But Aunt Shen is also from a young age, and she understands the greasy vigor of young people when they are passionate and affectionate.

"Shen Mo's craftsmanship is good, boy Zhou, you look so handsome, they all fit together."

Just at this time, Shen Lin came back from the water, and Aunt Shen took a sip, it was so sweet.Other people’s sugar water only put a little bit of sugar, if there is a taste of sugar, that’s what it means! Zhou’s sugar water is really sweet, so a small bowl needs to be filled with a big spoonful of sugar!

"Sit down, Mrs. Shen, I still have bills in my room, so I'll go in and reconcile the bills first."

Men and women avoid each other, even if it is a peasant family, even if Aunt Shen is already an old woman who was born and raised by Zhou Jing's generation, there is absolutely no reason for a woman to talk and a man to sit with her.

Aunt Shen knew that Zhou Jing was trying to avoid suspicion, so she didn't dare to stay, she hurriedly got up and said, "You're busy with your work, I'll just sit and talk about it as an old woman."

As soon as Zhou Jing left, Aunt Shen felt that the air flowed a little more lightly, and the feeling of depression all along disappeared.Come to think of it, this person has a different temperament when he is rich.In the past, seeing Zhou Jing was not pleasing to the eye, and I didn't want to take a second look after just one glance.Now when I saw Zhou Jing, I felt so suppressed that I couldn't hold my head up at all, as if I saw some majestic elders.

Shen Mo turned over the clothes that Aunt Shen had made, and said with satisfaction: "Aunt Shen's craftsmanship is very good, and the formation is very dense. Brother, you can try it on, and I'll see if it fits."

Sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. Shen Lin came out with new clothes, which were made of rough cloth. Without patches, he would be a completely different person.The whole person is very energetic.

Shen Mo nodded in satisfaction, "It's no wonder Brother Jing told you to wear bright colors, it really looks good. Tomorrow, I'll go to town dressed like this and show everyone that our little brother is also very handsome. Maybe some family has the spirit to agree to it." The man who did it fell in love with our younger brother and came to propose marriage!"

Shen Lin was embarrassed by what was said, and called out elder brother in embarrassment.
