After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

Shui Qing had already begun to think about how many fat rabbits he would buy and keep.

But before that, let’s catch a fat rabbit for dinner.

Today was originally a housewarming ceremony, and a lot of meat was prepared. However, the village master was completely different from Bai Ziqian's family, so it was really hard to entertain them with the same food as the villagers.

There are eleven people in total. Except for the youngest Fan Hu, who doesn’t eat much, the other children eat no less than adults.

Therefore, the variety of dishes in the evening cannot be too small.

She ordered Ling Ran who had just entered the courtyard: "Ling Ran, go catch a male rabbit and an old hen and clean them up. Let's have dinner."

Ling Ran usually does the work of killing chickens and ducks. He has been working outside for more than half a year and is particularly skilled in doing these tasks.

Ling Ran said hello, turned around, and headed out of the courtyard to catch rabbits and old hens.

"Yan Qiu, check to see if the fermented rice is ready. Bring it up in a bowl and make wolfberry fermented rice balls to eat tonight."

She just saw that Li Huyu's ingredients for stewed fish maw included not only longan, red dates, and Codonopsis pilosula, but also wolfberry.

Just in time, there will be a reason to take it out later.

"Xinghui, go to the vegetable field and cut some leeks, dig some potatoes, and see if there are any other fresh vegetables. Bring a few back."

Yan Qiuxing in the wine shop responded obediently and quickly followed A Niang's request.

When Li Huyu heard that dinner was going to be made, Li Huyu was eager to try it.

Shui Qing saw through it at a glance and asked, "Together?"

Li Huyu restrained his eagerness and waved his hand to refuse: "Forget it, there is no need to waste food."

When she cooks, she focuses on cleanliness and hygiene...it tastes bad.

This place is not like at home. She ruined the food at home, and the cook made up for it, so the whole family would not go hungry. If the food was ruined here, what would they eat at night?

But she really wanted to cook, so she discussed it: "How about I help you?"

Shui Qing naturally had no objection: "Okay."

Li Huyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he wanted to roll up his sleeves and go for a fight.

Qian'er said at home that everything Shuiqing cooks is delicious, and she should learn a few of it so that she can show off her skills when she goes back!

At that moment, the two of them entered the kitchen happily.

Here Fan Jin and Bai Manshan did not enter the house, but walked along the road towards Shanshui Village while chatting about family and country affairs.

Not far away, Aunt Zhang and her family were building a new house.

The topic of the two people quickly changed from the impact of the reduction of vassalage to this year's unusually cold winter.

"Brother Fan! Are you friends?" Zhang Jinniu was wearing a tattered winter coat and was digging the foundation in full swing. When he saw the two of them, he greeted them warmly.

Yinniu and Tieniu were making adobe with the soil dug up by Taurus. When they heard the sound, they put down their work and shouted respectfully to Fan Jin: "Brother Fan, is there anything you need our help with?"

The open space above Second Brother Fan is so big that it is difficult to get down easily. I came here with my friends this time. Are you looking for something to do with them?

"If something happens, don't be polite to us!"

Fan Jin was just walking around casually with Bai Manshan and ended up here unknowingly.

Now that I heard their words, I suddenly remembered that I really had something to say to them.

He immediately asked: "Golden Ox, Silver Ox, will you still burn charcoal and sell it this year?"

"Burn it, but my mother said that there will be spring plowing in the spring next year, and we are afraid that we will not have enough time to build a house with adobe, so we build the house first and wait until the twelfth lunar month to start burning charcoal;

Anyway, it’s almost the Chinese New Year at that time, so it should be easy to sell it in Niutou Town. If you can sell it quickly, you can save a lot of time. "Taurus wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied with a grin.

In just two or three months, following Brother Fan, their family earned more rice than the fields harvested!

Part of it was replaced with black noodles, and now I can fill my stomach every time.

If, as the old village chief said, there will be a flood next year, then the new house they built will come in handy - to store the remaining rice!

Thinking of the new house and rice, the Taurus couple felt even more grateful to Fan Jinshuiqing.

They were originally going to sell rice and buy tiles, but because Sister-in-law Shui Qing made an exception and asked all three brothers to help, they earned a total of more than one or two taels of silver.

With the nearly two taels of silver they had originally saved, Aniang said they could not only build three large adobe houses, but also use tile roofs for the sloping kitchen.

Fan Jin raised a smile on his lips and said to several people: "Your sister-in-law said that it is cold this year and we need charcoal to make wine. We have to buy it outside and have to transport it back. It is not convenient for you to pick it out and sell it, so we thought Let’s buy it from you.”

When Jinniu heard this, he became anxious and said, "Trees don't cost anything, they just burn an extra kiln when burning. Brother Fan, you have helped us so much, why do we need you to buy them!"

"Yes, yes, you don't have to go out to pick them out. We are close. It's just a waste of time, and there is no need to spend money. Second brother, go back and tell your sister-in-law that we will deliver them to your house after they are burned!" Yin Niu shook his head and followed. Like a rattle.

With a little charcoal and money, who have they become!

Fan Jin knew that they were benevolent and righteous, but making charcoal was really hard work, how could it be as easy as they said?

Besides, he bought from them for mutual benefit, not to take advantage. He explained softly: "We need a lot. If you start burning, no matter how many kilns we have, we will take them;

The prices are the same as those outside. If you think we buy too much, it’s okay to give us a discount or give more away, but it’s absolutely not possible to get free of charge. "

The Taurus people only felt that Fan Jin spoke kindly, but the firmness in his words was undeniable.

After a while, Jinniu, as the boss, made up his mind and said: "Okay, we don't have to go to Niutou Town to sell, which saves a lot of travel. It will definitely be cheaper than the price in Niutou Town!"

It’s just that my mother will tell me if I go back.

Yinniu asked hesitantly: "Second brother, we can burn a batch of charcoal in three to five days, and we can burn two or three kilns at a time. Isn't it too much?"

If it's not used up, it will be old charcoal next winter. They burn it every winter anyway, so it would be better to wait until next winter to buy new charcoal.

Fan Jin didn’t hide anything and told him directly: “Not only does it need to be used for wine-making insulation this year, but it also needs to be used to prepare for the rainy season next summer;

It is best not to use nature. If the rainy season is really long and the trees and weeds are wet, you will be worried about having no firewood for cooking. If you have free time, prepare more. "

Now that Yan Qiuxing has returned to Dajiang to make wine, he can't find time to chop wood, mow grass and light the fire;

Shuiqing and Dahu each have their own things to do;

He and Dahe had to go to the city to deliver rice wine every day. After returning at noon, they used the afternoon to go up the mountain to collect firewood with Ling Ran after feeding the animals.

Now a warehouse has been prepared, but it is not enough!

Charcoal is resistant to burning and doesn't take up much space, so it's perfect for storage.

The Taurus people opened their mouths and nodded after a while.
