Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

Mr. Zhang's nervousness was real. He only had one son, and his personality was a bit introverted. At least that's what he thought.

Now I finally met a noble man and got on his good side.

You can only live in peace for a few days, so make sure you don't make any more mistakes.

Seeing Zhao Qin smiling but not saying anything, he became even more confused. Some people's smiles meant they were happy or agreed with someone, but Aqin's smile often meant he was going to play a trick on someone.

Back then, Aqin smiled most happily at Lin Zhonghe, but as a result, Lin Zhonghe's shadow disappeared.

"Aqin, Aguang is a little introverted, but he won't do anything bad, I believe..."

"Okay, Uncle Zhang, what are you thinking about? I'm in need of an assistant. After meeting him for the past few days, I feel that Guang is quite suitable.

Others say he is introverted, but in my opinion, he is a talent. He knows not to say things he shouldn’t say, and he doesn’t show off things he doesn’t understand. It’s not easy for young people to know these things.”

Old Zhang let out a long sigh, and suddenly reached out and patted Zhao Qin's arm, "It's fun to scare your uncle for fun, right?"

Seeing Zhao Qin laughing, Lao Zhang snorted again, but then asked, "What does an assistant do?"

"He is the first person who helps me manage my business, similar to a secretary."

Lao Zhang's eyes were not right again, "Ah Qin, aren't all secretaries women?"

"Uncle Zhang, with your level of awareness, you are still a village cadre. You said the Secretary-General of the United Nations is a woman? Which of the administrative secretaries of the various government agencies in our province and city is a woman?"

Lao Zhang said lightly and waved his hand, "I don't understand. Anyway, A Guang is following you. Let him go fishing on the boat, or be your assistant, even if it's just carrying manure. You can arrange whatever you want."

"I'm just telling you, if you agree, I'll arrange for him to study in the capital."

"How long will it take? Can you come back for the New Year?"

"He will definitely come back during the Chinese New Year. As for how long he will study, it depends on his ability. Three months at the least and half a year at the most should be enough."

"Studying is a good thing, Aqin, you take so much trouble."

The conversation between the two came to an end, because the fourth grandfather came over and said, "Aqin, you can't run away again when you go to the grave before the New Year. Listen to your father. The ancestral hall is not big.

But the family tree still needs to be revised. I have discussed with your second grandfather that you should be the first to kneel down and burn incense to the ancestors this year."

Zhao Qin stood up, gave up his seat, and then took a small wooden chair and sat down at the bottom. "Fourth Grandfather, shouldn't you and Second Grandfather be the first to burn incense? Even if you two want to give the younger generation a chance,

That should be my father's generation, they are still strong."

The old man tapped his cane and said, "We all know what they are going to do and who our ancestors want to see. It's you. Let the ancestors see the new pillar of our Zhao family."

Humans are very strange creatures.

When you are poor, you may have too many calculations, but once you are rich, you will pay more attention to these ritual things.

Poor people come up with evil schemes, or they have no other choice,

When wealth increases, one’s conscience may increase, but what increases may only be one’s own face.

"Don't refuse this matter, and don't run around. Do you hear me?"

"Okay, it's up to you."

Seeing Zhao Qin's happy agreement, the expression on Fourth Grandfather's face relaxed, he laughed, and then lowered his voice, "Our Zhao family should also buy a pig. It's just right to kill it after the ancestor worship, and divide it among the families."

Well, the old man wants to compare everything.

I guess they think that the Zhao family is unique in the village and should not lag behind others in anything.

"Don't worry, I have arranged everything." What a coincidence.

The old man stood up and watched the pig being slaughtered outside. After a while, he heard the pig screaming at the top of its lungs.

Zhao Qin felt it was a bit noisy and was thinking of going home first and coming back later. However, as soon as he went out, he ran into Zhao Anguo wandering over.

"Dad, are you done?"

"Well, a bus just came back with a dozen tourists."

"Provincial or municipal?"

“They’re everywhere.”

Compared to the slight surprise on Zhao Anguo's face, Zhao Qin frowned, "Why are there only a dozen?"

"Much better than the past few days."

They didn't talk for long because the pigs were screaming even more miserably. It was scary to hear. Zhao Qin was not afraid of killing animals. He had killed chickens and ducks before.

In his previous life, his parents died early and he lived alone. Although he often went out fishing, he lived a good life as long as he was at home.

Before the demolition, he would occasionally buy chickens and ducks from his neighbors and kill them himself to improve his life.

Zhao Qin in this life is even less afraid. When he was hanging out with Ah He in the past, he was the one who basically dealt with the stolen chickens and ducks.

Seeing that his father had also arrived, he decided not to leave and simply followed his father to the pig-slaughtering scene.

At this moment, everyone worked together to press the pig onto a wide bench. The butcher who was invited took a large hook, hooked the pig's lower jaw, and pressed the pig's head.

Some of Lao Luo's brothers pulled the pig's feet, while others pressed directly on the pig.

The butcher asked someone to help hold down the pig's head. He did not take out the bleeding knife immediately, but hit the pig's feet with a wooden stick.

"Dad, what are you doing?" This was the first time Zhao Qin had seen this. It was different from the way pigs were slaughtered in his hometown or at his uncle's house.

"It can make the pigs suffer less."

"Is there any scientific basis for this?" Zhao Qin's eyes widened. This was the first time he had heard of it.

Zhao Anguo was too lazy to pay attention to him, mainly because he couldn't explain himself clearly.

In fact, there is a certain scientific explanation. Hitting the pig's feet can stimulate the pig's nervous system and relax it, thereby reducing pain. It can also make the blood drain more cleanly when bleeding.

After beating it a few times, a basin was brought in, in which fine salt and cornstarch were placed to collect the pig blood.

Pig blood is also a must-have for local New Year festivals because it is one of the raw materials for stir-fried rice noodles.

Everything is ready, it's time to start the operation.

Everyone tensed their bodies and tried their best, because the moment the pig struggled the most was when the knife went in.

When the pig is completely motionless, it is then placed in a large bucket and rinsed with water to remove the hair.

It was fine at first, but as the hot water started to stir, the fishy smell spread with the water vapor.

Zhao Qin couldn't stand it anymore and ran back home.

Not long after, Zhao Anguo called, "Dad, is dinner ready?"

"All he does is eat and eat." It was strange. Although the eldest son was filial and obedient before, Zhao Anguo still liked the younger son who was a thief more.

Now, the situation is reversed, and I think the honest and upright eldest son is the best.

So I have to scold my younger son from time to time.

Zhao Qin naturally wouldn't care too much. The other person is his boss, so he has to reserve the right to show off his power of words. After all, he will soon be the boss's man.

"Another bus has returned, this time with 27 people on board. Ah Qin, is that publicity you mentioned effective?"

"It's still too little. It's too early to say it's effective. Dad, let's observe for another two days."

"alright."

"By the way, let the bus driver work harder these two days and wait a little longer in the city at night, so that people won't be unable to find the place when they arrive."

"understood."

After hanging up the phone, Aunt Wu leaned over and asked, "Aqin, you're back. Do you want to eat at home tonight?"

"No need, Auntie, just prepare for you and Axue, I'll go to Uncle Luo's house for dinner."

As he said that, he went to the basement, opened the cellar, and called Wang Jiasheng, "Brother Sheng, come and help us move two boxes of wine over, and then we will go to Uncle Luo's house to drink together in the evening."

Wang Jiasheng responded. He was very familiar with Lao Luo and had learned the boat-driving skills from Lao Luo.

Of course, he couldn't take Moutai. Even a person worth 10 billion couldn't afford such a loss. He moved Gujing original liquor. By chance, he saw it at a sugar and wine company. It was said to be a trial product, more than 200 yuan a bottle.

At the moment, it’s pretty expensive.

Seeing his curiosity, the manager of the sugar and wine company directly sent him a few boxes.

Zhao Qin is very familiar with this wine. This is the first batch of wine to come out and the quality is impeccable.
