Joe's Farming

The sesame paste business is better than Qiao Yu expected.

Wen Ge'er asked Ling Lie to make some mixed noodles or vegetables every day and put them in the lobby for guests to taste.

Soon, the forty cans of sesame paste were sold out.

Qiao Yu originally planned to ask Li Li'niang to come to the villa for training on how to make spicy hot pot with sesame sauce.

Now we have to make it again before we can supply it.

This time, Qiao Yu directly harvested 200 kilograms of sesame seeds and 100 kilograms of peanuts.

He planned to make 100 kilograms of sweet peanut butter.

This way, there won’t be enough jars at home.

So the next day, Qiao Yu went to the kiln factory with Gu Feng, and Gu Gang drove the ox cart with them.

Qiao Yu is now a major customer of the kiln factory. When the manager of the kiln factory saw him coming, he knew that he must be here to buy jars again.

"Hey, Boss Qiao, your bean paste is sold out again? How big a jar do you want this time?"

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "No, we made a lot of bean paste and still have some for sale. This time I came here to get some sesame paste and peanut butter."

When the manager heard about the new food, he said, "Boss Qiao is amazing. He has created two new foods. Can I have a jar the same size as the bean paste?"

Qiao Yu nodded.

The boss asked how many I wanted.

Qiao Yu looked at Gu Feng and Gu Gang and asked, "How many can our ox cart hold?"

Gu Gang estimated: "Four or five hundred, maybe? But they have to be tied up with ropes."

Gu Feng was afraid that there would be too many of them and they would get scattered on the road, so he said, "Put 300 of them in there, and put the rest in the carriage."

Qiao Yu nodded: "Okay!"

The kiln factory owner happily asked his workers to load them onto the truck.

"Boss, make me another fifty big jars. Bring them to me when they are done. This is the deposit."

Qiao Yu planned to take advantage of the good weather during this period to turn all the peppers in stock into fermented beans and store them in large jars for fermentation.

Once the existing Douban is sold out, I will be able to start selling it in two or three months.

The manager happily took the deposit and politely escorted the person to the door.

Qiao Yu was still the same as before. When Gu Feng drove, he would sit in the front with him.

Gu Feng asked curiously: "Do you need so many jars this time?"

"Well, I want to make more sauce to sell. Winter is coming soon. If we make more money at the end of the year, we can have a good rest for a while."

Gu Feng now has no idea about the family accounts. He only knows that the more he spends this year, the more he earns.

Gu Feng asked his husband somewhat embarrassedly: "Qiao'er, how much money does our family have now?"

Qiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled at Gu Feng and said, "Sorry, I haven't counted recently. Let's count together when we get back."

Gu Feng also smiled and said, "Okay."

However, after arriving home, Qiao Yu started to get busy.

He asked Li Xin to go to the villa and call a dozen more people to come up and help.

I started frying sesame seeds and peanuts and was very busy.

Qiao Yu first made a jar of peanut butter for herself, and then left the rest of the work to others.

The method of making peanut butter is basically the same as that of sesame butter.

Just because it tastes sweet, we add some more sugar to it. The peanut butter made in this way can be eaten directly with pastries.

As for Qiao Yu's own can, with melted butter added, it had a milky flavor.

Li Xin was so hungry after smelling the food that she strongly suggested that Qiao Yu bake bread.

Previously, Da Zhuang and Gu Feng had kneaded the dough for the bread. Qiao Yu smiled and said, "If you can knead the dough yourself, I will bake it for you tomorrow."

Li Xin knew his own limitations too well, so he immediately took a step back.

"Forget it... forget it. I can't even knead the dough for steamed buns, let alone bread."

Qiao Yu waved at him, motioning him to come closer.

Li Xin obediently put his ear closer.

"I know someone who can definitely do it and will definitely help you. It all depends on how determined you are to eat bread."

Li Xin instantly understood who Qiao Yu was talking about, and her face turned red for no apparent reason.

"I don't know who you're talking about."

Li Xin said against his will.

Qiao Yu patted his shoulder and said, "I don't know who took the initiative to go over and sit with them that day. Anyway, I don't quite understand it."

Li Xin said confidently: "Can't he and I be buddies? We are all men anyway. No one will suffer."

Qiao Yu nodded perfunctorily: "Yeah, yeah, yeah, as long as you like it. It's okay for buddies to help knead the dough, right? Why are you so excited?"

Li Xin thought about it and said, "Then I'll go find him later."

-

After Qiao Yu arranged the work, she went to find Gu Feng.

I found Gu Feng holding his son and looking at the scenery on the mountain road outside.

"Baby, look who's here to see you? It's your little daddy."

Qiao Yu: !!!

Is this something his brother Gu would say?

Gu Feng held Gu Heng in his arms and raised his little hand to greet him.

Gu Heng saw him coming and extended his hand to him with a smile.

Qiao Yu walked up to him, hugged him and kissed his little face.

"Hey, whose baby is this?" he said while putting his face close to the baby.

Gu Heng: “Hehehe.”

When Qiao Yu heard the laughter, she was moved by her son's cuteness: "It's mine! Hahaha."

Gu Feng watched with a smile from the side and put his arm around her husband's waist.

"I came to find you to go back to the house and count the money."

Gu Feng was still immersed in the heartwarming scene of a happy family of three, but was suddenly brought back by Qiao Yu's words about counting money.

"Now?"

Qiao Yu curved her beautiful eyebrows and said, "What else?"

Gu Feng smiled dotingly and said, "Let's go then."

When they got home, Qiao Yu gently placed Gu Heng on the bed to lie on his side.

Then he took out the small box where he kept his money.

During this period, when he collected debts, he would ask several store managers to exchange the debts of more than fifty taels directly for silver notes.

After collecting the bills, he would put the silver bills and change directly into the box, but not the copper coins, which he would keep in another box to use as pocket money for his children.

If there were too much, I would let the children dress them up and go to the villa to exchange them for small change.

When he needed money, he would just take it from these two boxes without deliberately counting how much he had saved.

Before they bought the mountain, their savings had already exceeded one thousand taels of silver.

But later we bought two mountains, and added the cost of hiring people.

For a long time, the money in the small box never exceeded two hundred taels.

However, since the villa was built, the expenses have gradually stabilized, especially the profits from bean paste and hot pot base are very considerable. So now the villa can be considered to have paid back.

In addition, the snack bar and other businesses have been profitable, so Qiao Yu has a rough idea in mind.

But Gu Feng didn’t know all this.

So Qiao Yu left this surprise to him to count.

When Gu Feng counted to five thousand taels, Qiao Yu saw him looking at her in disbelief.

"I've made a thousand just from the hot pot base I made during this period."

Qiao Yu smiled.

Not to mention other industries.

Gu Feng thought, no wonder her husband insisted on doing business with Wang Xuan. It was not cheap and laborious to transport butter and beef from the provincial capital by boat.

It turns out that I am too narrow-minded.
