After killing the pigs at home, half of them were kept by the farm, and the rest were brought over.

Mao Xiaosui gave a large piece to the old lady next door and the others, and also gave half a basket of dried rabbits and some fresh rabbits.

Normally, Qin An would go back after having dinner at the old lady's house. After saying hello to the old lady, he walked into their house.

He asked the two of them seriously, "Is there any money-making job?"

"what are you doing?"

"I want silver."

Mao Xiaosui scolded him, "Then you go find an order. If you don't have an order, there will be no bonus and no money."

"Where can I find this poor place for you?" Qin An said, "Why don't we go to the county."

"If you don't have rabbit skins, you can't do anything in the county. The water in the Tianhe River has frozen. You can't clean the rabbit skins and you can't do big business." Mao Xiaosui asked him, "Why are you so anxious for money all of a sudden?"

Qin An looked a little annoyed, "The old lady doesn't have firewood for the winter at home."

Mao Xiaosui had never been to the old lady's house, so he didn't know what the situation would be like in her home.

Just listen to Qin An say again, "You lend me some, and it will be deducted from my salary and what you said in the future."

Mao Xiaosui was a little surprised by his kindness. If she were Qin An, she would never meddle in this situation.

But she still reminded her, "She didn't even have food originally, but now it's all thanks to you that she's full."

"Then can I give her my own firewood?" Qin An frowned. "I don't know how I survived even though I'm so old. Don't freeze to death in the house."

Mao Xiaosui stared at him, "Your firewood comes from the farm. You didn't contribute anything. Logically, we shouldn't care whether you are warm or cold."

Qin An naturally knew it and became silent.

Mao Xiaosui asked him at this time, "Why do you have to care about her?"

Qin An put away his usual idleness and said absently, "I eat at her house. Although she is paid... she only cooks the same dishes every time and doesn't eat them..."

Mao Xiaosui knew that he was being soft-hearted. It was better for someone like him to have concerns than to have no concerns, so he still agreed: "I can lend it to you, but there are conditions."

"You said."

"You don't have to worry about the breeding farm, but you have to worry about the business. You have to find a business next year. Then you have to follow suit and do your job well. Don't be idle like this year. Since you want to work in You earn money by eating here, so you have to correct your attitude, otherwise I won't care about your worth of forty taels."

"Okay." Qin An responded happily.

"The money will be given to you tomorrow. You first give some of my firewood to the old lady."

Li Yunshan also said, "There is a place selling wood outside the town. I will accompany you to buy it there tomorrow."

Qin An thanked him and left with the firewood.

The family had a lot of money, so Li Yunshan took out ten taels and planned to give it to him tomorrow, saying, "He has a good heart."

Mao Xiaosui nodded, "It's good to let him worry a little, at least he can do things in a down-to-earth manner." It can be considered a good thing for the old lady, as old age brings a son.

It's already November now, and the breeding farm is busy and orderly. It's getting cold, and Li Yunshan doesn't go there much. When he was free, Mao Xiaosui began to think about the tavern.

I asked Li Yunshan to pull some soil back and put the clay oven in the yard. It was similar to a clay stove, even simpler, and it was ready by night.

The fire was lit for several hours. After dinner the next day, Mao Xiaosui went to buy some marinade and came back.

First, I marinated the chicken that was thawed last night. After the ingredients were cooked and the flavor was gone, I put the rabbit in. The rabbit meat was so tender that it soaked in the flavor after being cooked over low heat for a while.

While waiting, Mao Xiaosui asked Li Yunshan, "Are you going to Ding's house?"

"Go there."

Mao Xiaosui nodded, "Then I'll ask Zhang Qing to make clothes for Ruyi and Ankang tomorrow. I'll leave it alone as long as Pingshun earns money. I'll make clothes for Ping'an and Hepingsui, but I don't know how old they are..." she muttered.

"Ping'an should be about the same as Yiyi, Pingsui... should be a little bigger, and Ankang should be a little bigger."

Mao Xiaosui: "You should take him to see a doctor when you have time. I'm worried to death."

"Okay." Li Yunshan responded.

The fire in the oven was already hot. Mao Xiaosui skewered the marinated chicken and rabbit onto wooden sticks and hung them on the grill. He also grilled a few unbraised chickens, turning the sticks from time to time to make them roast evenly.

Start cooking in the morning and wait until the afternoon. Mao Xiaosui tore off a piece of the roasted rabbit meat, gave it to Li Yunshan to taste first, and then took a bite himself.

After being marinated, the rabbit meat has a faint aroma of marinade and numbness, and is charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

She thought it was delicious and asked Li Yunshan, "How is it?"

Li Yunshan nodded.

The two immediately took Rabbit to the tavern. When the tavern owner saw her, he smiled and said, "I thought you had forgotten."

Mao Xiaosui explained, "I didn't forget it, but it was indeed delayed."

The shopkeeper didn't say anything. He raised his hand and tore off a rabbit leg and ate it. He wiped his oily hands with a calm expression and said, "It tastes good. Let's talk about business."

A few people found a seat and sat down. The shopkeeper asked, "You want to sell rabbit meat, what's the price?"

"Twenty coppers."

The two of them didn't discuss the price before they came, and Li Yunshan just listened.

The shopkeeper shook his head, "It's too expensive."

"The rabbits that are killed that day are mostly pork and chicken sold in the town. Our rabbits are very fat and fat. They are all rabbits from this year. The meat is tender and delicious. The price is very suitable." Mao Xiaosui did not give in.

The shopkeeper laughed, "We are a tavern, and customers come here to drink. It is difficult for us to sell at your price."

Mao Xiaosui just asked him, "What's your price?"

"Fifteen coppers."

Mao Xiaosui shook his head, "Too low."

Li Yunshan was a little surprised. They only sold fifteen pieces at the market.

"It's not low." The shopkeeper smiled confidently. "Since you are the rabbits who are mainly engaged in the rabbit skin business, you should have saved a lot, right? It's better that this stuff is fresh."

Mao Xiaosui smiled, stood up and said politely, "You can think about it again."

The shopkeeper was a little surprised, frowned and watched them leave.

The waiter asked the shopkeeper, "Is it really so delicious?"

The shopkeeper glared at him, took the remaining rabbit and left.

After leaving the tavern, Li Yunshan asked in confusion, "We only sell fifteen copper coins in the market, why don't you agree?"

"Our target is in the county, not this tavern. If they can deal with all our rabbits, forget it. Obviously they can't. If the price of the tavern is too low, the most in the county will be like this, one Prices vary from place to place, you can’t compare with those over there.”

"Go to the restaurant and have a look." Mao Xiaosui walked in.

Business in the restaurant was average, so Mao Xiaosui went straight to the counter and asked, "Does the shopkeeper need rabbit meat?"

"Rabbit meat?" The shopkeeper looked at them and asked, "Are you the owner of the rabbit skin shop?"

He looked at Li Yunshan, and Li Yunshan nodded in cooperation.

"How much?"

"Twenty coppers each."

Without waiting for the shopkeeper to lower the price, Mao Xiaosui said directly, "We had dinner at your restaurant last time. The only shortcoming of your restaurant is that the dishes are too simple. A rabbit only costs a pound of meat. This thing is not common in this town, you can definitely sell it at double the price and we will deliver it to your door to ensure it is fresh."

Finally, he added, "Twenty won't lower the price."

After hearing her series of words, the shopkeeper said, "Wait a moment." Then he went into the kitchen.

After a while, a muscular man with a round waist came out, wearing a scarf, wiping his oily hands on it, and looked at the two of them, "You want to sell rabbit meat?"

His eyes were still staring at Li Yunshan.

Li Yunshan nodded, "We are in the rabbit skin business."

"I heard from the shopkeeper that the price you gave me was twenty copper coins?"

Li Yunshan still nodded, "A rabbit is worth a pound of meat, and they are all rabbits this year."

"Is there any? Give me a look."

Naturally, the two of them didn't have it, so Mao Xiaosui asked him to sit down and get it himself.

The rabbits she raised were all about the same size, so she picked two at random.

When they returned to the restaurant, Li Yunshan and the boss had already sat down to drink tea.

Mao Xiaosui gave him the frozen rabbit, and the man hooked his hand back. The shopkeeper took the rabbit meat and sent it to the kitchen for cooking.

They didn't say anything and waited quietly.

The rabbit meat, which was ready to be cooked, was served. The boss took a bite first, and then motioned with his eyes for them to have a taste too.

The two of them also took a bite. The meat was very tender and could only taste the aroma of fried green onions, salt and pepper. For people who have only eaten pork and chicken, the tenderness of the rabbit was a great delicacy.

The boss didn't say anything, and they didn't ask. After finishing the plate of meat, the boss said, "Okay, I bought it."

It was happier than the two of them thought.
