The pension plan of the ancient cannon fodder woman

Chapter 36 New member of the family

Su He, who was drowsy in the carriage, had no idea that she was almost suspected. Fortunately, Mother Zhang helped her escape.

She looked around the interior of the car. The layout wasn't as exquisite as the one Zhang's mother had taken before, but it was also very good. You couldn't be too picky about something that was free.

There are thick and warm dark green cushions on both sides, and the areas underneath the cushions are made into drawers, both large and small. The largest one can hold a thin quilt, and the smaller ones can hold some food and small items.

There is a window on the side of the car body opposite the door, which is closed now. Su He studied it carefully and found that there is a secret compartment behind the backrest. Su He was very satisfied no matter how he looked at it.

After studying the carriage, it was time for her to think about making money. She was sure that Lihuayuan would buy fermented glutinous rice from her in five days, at a price of ten taels of silver per portion. She had enough glutinous rice, and the fermented koji could last for a few months, but it would definitely not be a long-term business. In the evening, she would go to the space to look for information on how the fermented koji was made. She couldn't let this profitable business fail.

No, there is no need to wait until night. She is the only one in the carriage now, so it is okay for her to take out the computer now.

Thinking of this, Su He turned on his computer and looked for information. You get what you pay for. The information compiled by Li Wen is comprehensive, and fermented rice wine is the most basic.

The raw material for making koji is Polygonum hydropiper flower. Su He is not worried that there will be no seeds nearby, as there are also wine businesses in the county, so it is definitely needed for making wine. But it is winter now, and there are definitely no fresh ones. Who would have seeds left?

Seeing that it was still early, Su He copied down all the production methods and then drew a picture of the Polygonum multiflorum flower.

After finishing the painting, I turned off the computer and put it away. Nowadays, we should use less electricity and we must not waste it.

Su He stared at the jewelry box beside her in a daze. How come she became richer and richer after leaving home? She should put the gold bars and silver bills into the space. The jewelry box could only be left outside. After all, her cousin had already seen it.

The money is increasing, and I can use some of the recent earnings to invest.

Su He had no plans to do business for the time being. She was a commoner and a woman at that. It was not easy to do business in ancient times. She only knew the Zhao family if she wanted to find a backer. Now the Zhao family had a good relationship with her, so it might be smooth to open a store. But if things went wrong in the future, she would definitely be in a weak position.

After much thought, she decided to buy land, because land would not deceive people.

Not to mention being rich, but being able to live a comfortable life is definitely guaranteed, with enough food and clothing. Mu Tou can go to school, and even if he is not well off in the future, he can still find a good job in the county. Literacy is a big advantage.

And Miaomiao, when she gets married, the dowry will definitely be one thousand taels, which is already amazing.

My cousin Yanzhi from my eldest uncle's family received a dowry of 18 taels when she got married. My eldest uncle's family loved their daughter so much that they let her take 8 taels with her. This shows that they were well-known for loving their daughter.

Thinking of this, Su He felt relieved. She would not touch the 3000 taels she had exchanged from the modern world unless it was absolutely necessary. She also would not touch the taels that He Hua had saved.

Then there were still 600 taels of silver ingots, 8 gold bars and 4,000 taels of silver notes left. After all, the silver notes were not safe. In case of a natural disaster, the silver notes would not be as useful as the silver ingots. She decided to find a bank to exchange them for silver ingots next time, and she could accept paying a little handling fee.

Gold bars are hard currency, so you can keep them for the time being.

There are also some gold bracelets that will not be moved for the time being, and as for jade bracelets, she doesn't know much about jade, so she thinks about keeping two, one for Mu and one for Miaomiao, and selling the rest.

She didn't know if the land in Liushu Village was expensive, and she didn't know how much it would cost per acre if she wanted to buy it. She had grain seeds, but Su He was a little hesitant about whether to use them, fearing that the yield would be alarming at first. After thinking about it, she decided not to use them for the time being, since she could definitely buy them if she had money.

There is also land in space, so let’s use these seeds in space first.

Su He was lost in thought in the carriage, and when he came to his senses he had already arrived home.

"Binzi, this is the mule, right? Look at its teeth and its butt. It's great. I didn't expect that the old ladies in the mansion would choose mules. This will save us a lot of trouble when we farm in the future!"

This was said by my grandfather. He has been worried ever since he sold the cow. Although the cow is old, it is still a helper.

Now seeing the mule with a strong physique, which was obviously capable of doing the work of at least two laborers, he danced with joy. When Su He got off the car, she seemed to see tears in her grandfather's eyes.

It seems that she still underestimated the farmers' love for mules and cows.

Maybe this is on the same level as buying a new house in modern times with full payment.

"Grandpa, don't stand at the door. The wind is too strong. Let's go in quickly."

Su He watched the men in the family all surrounding the mule, and she endured it again and again, but finally decided to give them a reminder.

"Oh, yes, yes, it's too cold outside, don't let the mule get frozen. Fugui, quickly lead the mule to the cowshed, it's all cleaned up there and warm. Give it a good meal for the first time it comes home, with some carrots and bean curd cakes. I specially went to the next village to buy them from Wang Tofu, they're fresh..."

Su He didn't care anymore and went to the kitchen to find Zhou. She brought back an old hen and four meat buns. She had been in the mansion for a long time and didn't go to the market to buy anything. She couldn't take advantage of the space to get things, so it would be nice to drink some old hen soup.

When I entered the kitchen, Zhou was cooking multi-grain porridge with wild vegetables in it.

"Hehua, you guys are back. You must be hungry. I also steamed some corn buns. Have one first."

"Okay, aunt, this is the lunch the mansion gave me. I can't finish it, so bring it back to add to everyone's meal."

Zhou took the old hen and four meat buns, put the meat buns into the steamer to heat them up, and kept looking at the old hen.

"What a good old hen this is. It's obvious that it lays eggs well. It's a sin to cook and eat it like this. We couldn't bear to eat such a good chicken when we were farming. Now that we can't work in the winter, we peasants are not worthy of eating it."

Su He nearly choked while eating a steamed bun. "Ahem, aunt, don't be sad. The chicken is already dead. We just need to eat it up and not waste it. It's a good time for everyone to replenish themselves so that they can work harder in the spring. Uncle Shunzi also needs to take care of himself."

After saying this, Zhou gritted her teeth and threw the chicken into the pot to cook. When the chicken soup was ready, Zhou called Wang Bin to bring the chicken soup to Shunzi.

Shunzi has been living in Tietou's room since he was brought in. Although his condition was critical at the time, he recovered well after being treated by the doctor and drinking Chinese medicine for a few days. However, the doctor said that Shunzi's body was seriously weak and he needed to be replenished from time to time and eat more fine grains. Su He said at the time that the fine grains in the family could be divided among Shunzi as an advance payment.

Sun agreed on behalf of Shunzi, so Zhou did not divide the old hen into four portions as before. Instead, she just boiled a few pieces of chicken into a pot of soup for everyone to share.

This time, a whole chicken was cooked in the pot, and the chicken soup also contained dried mushrooms contributed by Suho. The rich chicken soup and mushrooms were simply delicious. Everyone enjoyed the meal very much.

Among them, grandpa and uncle were the happiest. Su He presented them with rice wine and they drank to celebrate.

Mealtime is the happiest thing for the little ones. Before Su He came, Tietou could only drink wild vegetable porridge until he was 50% full, and that was with two meals a day.

Now the family has three meals a day, and they can eat very full every time. It is not just wild vegetable porridge, but also meat, white steamed buns, mutton, and this time even old hen. Tietou feels that his happy life is brought by his Aunt Su He.

So Su He took the drawings of the Polygonum multiflorum to Tietou and asked him to help find seeds. Tietou agreed on the spot, but he had to wait until New Year's Day, when all the friends in the village would be out and he could ask who still had some.

When Su He saw that things were going smoothly, he handed the matter over to Tietou with confidence.
