Miao'an's farming life

After the beginning of summer, the temperature continued to climb, and the grass and trees no longer stretched themselves cautiously and became lavish. At some point, the leaf buds on the poplar trees on the roadside had turned into broad leaves, which seemed to make the farmers drunk. rustling in the breeze.

Not only has the temperature risen, but the brightness of the sun has also increased. Oil lamps have been upgraded to incandescent lamps, and they are moving towards LEDs.Standing at the door of the main room, Miao An stretched himself, thinking about the outline of "Journey to the West" made his brain ache. He estimated the time was around ten o'clock in the morning, but the sunlight had already made him squint his eyes.

Yesterday they finally finished planting the rice, and put the chubby seeds to grow freely in the ground, and then pulled them out and moved them to the paddy fields in early June.

There seemed to be no one in the house, and it was quiet. Miao An went back to the house and filled a bowl of water. He wandered around not knowing what to do. Seeing that there were no cows in the cowshed, he knew that Yoyo was leading him to graze again, so he went to the foot of the mountain to look for cows. he.Go out and walk a few tens of meters to the river, where you can already see fish.Splashes and fish have been holding back for a winter, and now they look very lively.

Youyou was lying on a big rock not far from the river, with a piece of grass in her mouth, basking in the sun with her legs crossed.The cow still looked unhurried, rolling the blades of grass with its rough tongue, raising its head from time to time, not knowing what it was looking at.

The sun was shining brightly, with blue sky, grassland and green hills. Miao An was in a good mood, and rushed over like a child, and threw himself on Yoyo.

"Brother, are you a child?" Yoyo said solemnly without opening her eyes, the grass moved from side to side in his mouth.

Miao An, who was said to be a child by the child, gave a "tsk", and stretched out his evil hand, aiming directly at Yoyo's stomach, scratching his itchy flesh.

Yoyo immediately failed, laughed loudly, and twisted to avoid Miao An's hand, tears came out of her laughter.The big ox next to him still looked calm, watching with indifference.

Having had enough trouble, the two of them lay on the slope together, and Miao An suddenly discovered that in just half a year, Yoyo seemed to have grown a lot taller, her body bones had also strengthened, and she began to look like a grandpa.Inadvertently, he saw a lot of hawthorn-like things scattered around the previous stone. They were small with thin stems, but they were still green, and he could even see the unshed stamens at the bottom.

"What's that?" Miao An asked as he stood up and pointed at the fruits.

"Huh?" Yoyo looked in the direction he pointed, "Oh, that's an apple, the flowers just fell, and I picked them for fun."

"Are there many apple trees on the hill?"

"Well, every autumn, there will be a lot of knots, and everyone will pick something to eat, such as going to the mountains to chop firewood, but usually it is only children who pick it."

"That's it..." Mentioning the apple, Miao An felt something flash in his mind, but it was too fast, and he didn't have time to grab it.

In the afternoon, Miao An and Mo Su went to the Haozailai restaurant in the town together. After discussing last night, the two planned to share their money.The joint-stock system was proposed by Miao An. The shopkeeper wanted to renovate the restaurant, this time it was a major renovation, and in order to accommodate more people, he wanted to expand another one next to it, but the funds were not enough.After the business stabilized, the inflow and outflow of funds also reached a balance, and it was impossible to spend so much money for renovation for a while, so Miao An came up with this method after knowing that, let some people who can give money buy shares and share dividends.

The money I took today was two-thirds of all my belongings. Miao An felt light when walking on the road, and she didn't feel at ease until she gave it to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper signed a document with them, and went to the county government office to ask the public to testify. So far, Miao An's earning more and less earning is closely related to the business of Hao Zai Lai.

The shopkeeper is a good-tempered person, and he is also good at taking opinions. After the restaurant's business got better and better, he didn't float up. He still had the same pragmatic and truth-seeking attitude as before, and he still wanted to improve himself.It can be said that the character of the shopkeeper is the key to Miao An Mosu's decision to invest.

In addition to the great efforts of the chef, everyone got together to eat, and by the way, think about the renovation of the restaurant.Mo Su went against his usual silence this time and talked a lot.

Well, the starting point here is civilian business. Most of the business is in the lobby, and there are a few private rooms upstairs, but few people go in throughout the year. Now that the restaurant’s reputation is getting better and better, we should take this opportunity to go further and build more private rooms , so that rich people with more spending power also like to come.Furthermore, everyone likes to talk about things at the dinner table, and the wine culture is extensive and profound. If this place can be made into a place where you can talk about things with confidence, the business will definitely be better.

According to Mo Su's direction, several people made a lot of suggestions.The shopkeeper made the final decision: expand the restaurant, build more private rooms, and strengthen the sound insulation of the walls; renovate the dishes to meet the needs of different people; search for good wine and promote it as a restaurant feature.

Miao An's participation was naturally to renovate the dishes. He and Dali stayed in the kitchen all afternoon, preparing a lot of fancy dishes, and the shopkeeper and Mo Su tried them.A dish, with different collocations, may give people a very different feeling. A bowl of chicken soup sprinkled with some green onion or coriander will immediately add a lot of color.Combined with the experience of modern dining, Miao An talked a lot, such as what dishes to serve on what plates, what side dishes to add for decoration, etc. He also talked about many carvings he had seen, which opened Dali's mind.

Compared with the heat here, Mo Mansion is a bit deserted.Mo Hong's hands were itchy, and he couldn't help but went out to gamble again, only to be discovered by Mo Qingjiang.Father Mo, who hates iron but not steel, made him kneel in the ancestral hall for a day, and ordered the accountant that Mo Hong must apply to himself if he wants to get money, and anyone who dares to give him money in private will be kicked out of Mo's house.

"Son, you don't want to gamble, it will make your father angry." Lin Zhan tried to persuade Mo Hong again, the master's dissatisfaction has become bigger and bigger. If Su finds it back, wouldn't his previous efforts be in vain.

"Ah, our family has a big business, so I'll take a small gamble. What's the matter? Dad is just nervous." Mo Hong didn't care, but felt uncomfortable because he didn't have money to go out and play.

After holding it for less than two days, Mo Hong couldn't sit still and ran to find Mo Qingjiang.

"Father." He had a rare serious look, "I already knew I was wrong. In the past two days at home, Ah Mo also told me a lot. I want to help the family. I didn't handle the bookstore well before. Can dad give me another chance to make up for my mistakes?"

Mo Qingjiang didn't believe it at first, but no matter what, it was his son who was so spoiled, he couldn't bear it after begging for a few words, and gave him the management right of the bookstore again, but he had to observe him for another three days.Anyway, the sale of rights to "Journey to the West" has been resolved now. Although it is three days later than other stores, it is better than nothing.Mo Su's bum was really useful, and he gave him a pawn shop. Although the business was not good, he felt that it was enough.

Bei Cai casino, the light is a little dim, and the air is a bit cloudy, but the excited people inside don't care, they gather around the big tables, staring at the pair of big or small eyes, without blinking. Shaking the hand of the dice, he silently recited the result he desired.As soon as the count was counted, some people became annoyed and threw down their money reluctantly, while some cheered and ecstatically put the money into their arms with a smile on their face.

"Boss Bei! Where's Boss Bei?" Mo Hong pushed the door open and entered, shouting loudly, his voice drowned in the noise.

However, after a while, the tall and tall Boss Bei came out, shirtless, with a scar on his left eyebrow, poking there, with a vicious aura.Seeing Mo Hong smile, he dispelled the vicious feeling.

"Master Mo, I haven't seen you for a while, where did you get rich?"

Mo Hong waved his hand, "What kind of money do you make? My father has managed to control him so much that he has no money."

Boss Bei's eyes flashed, "Oh? So are you here today?"

"Hmph." Mo Hong raised the corners of his lips proudly, and took out the title deed of the bookstore and shook it, "Of course I brought enough money when I came today."

Boss Bei saw the paper in his hand, and immediately laughed, "Hahaha, let's say that Master Mo is going to make a fortune. Come here, come here, please, I will open it for Master Mo today."

The boss made a move himself, and soon attracted a group of people to gather around. Mo Hong sat at one end of the table, leaning on the back of the chair leisurely, enjoying the feeling of being paid attention to.

After a few rounds, Mo Hong won, and the servant behind him stepped forward again to collect the money.

"Master Mo is really lucky." Boss Bei said with a smile while shaking the dice in his hand.

"Where is it?" Mo Hongxi couldn't help it, and his mouth was modest, but everyone could see that he was very happy.

In this situation, of course it continued, and a few more rounds were played. Mo Hong still won, and the money in front of him was also piled up into a hill.

"Master, let's go." The boy leaned close to Mo Hong's ear and whispered.

Mo Hong frowned, very displeased, "Why are you going? My luck is in full swing. Come again!"

Next, Mo Hong began to win and lose. Just after losing a game, the boy reminded him again that Mo Hong, who was already annoying, became even more irritable. After telling the boy to shut up, he pushed all the remaining silver in front of him .If it comes out, he loses.

Mo Hong felt a little hot, couldn't help opening his neckline, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.Boss Bei saw everything in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Master Mo, will you continue?"

"Come again!" Mo Hong slapped the land deed on the table.

The sound of the dice shaking resounded again, and the final sound of covering the table was not loud, but it hit Mo Hong's heart directly, trembling his nervous strings.Boss Bei slowly raised his hand, and the dice in the tube were exposed little by little. Everyone felt that their hearts seemed to be lifted. Mo Hong subconsciously held his breath, and his eyes were fixed on the dice inside.

"At thirteen o'clock, Master Mo wins!" Boss Bei laughed, "It seems that this land deed is Master Mo's amulet."

"Huh..." Mo Hong breathed a sigh of relief, he was too nervous, and broke out in a cold sweat on a hot day.After relaxing, he laughed again, and waved his hand boldly: "Haha, maybe it's true. Come again!"

Boss Bei chuckled and started again.

After winning a few more sentences, Mo Hong was dissatisfied with the lack of money, so he simply bet on the land deed and the money he had already won.

"Master Mo, have you made up your mind?" Boss Bei asked again.Mo Hong readily agreed.

However, this time the land deed did not bring him good luck, Boss Bei quickly opened it, "Nine o'clock, you lost, Master Mo."

"How is it possible?!" Mo Hong felt unbelievable, stood up from the chair suddenly, and stared at the dice lying quietly on the table.

Boss Bei signaled with his eyes, and the people next to him immediately went over and took away the money and land deed in front of Mo Hong.

Seeing that the land deed was taken away, Mo Hong came back to his senses, and couldn't help but block it: "Wait! You can't take this!"

"Does Master Mo have anything else that can be mortgaged?" Boss Bei laughed again, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"I... I'll get you more money later, okay? Don't take this!"

"Master Mo, you must be aware of the rules of the casino. If you decide to leave, if you lose, you should be willing to gamble and admit defeat. Otherwise, you will be embarrassing Bei." Boss Bei suppressed his smile, and his image became fierce again.

"Boss Bei, I'm serious, you're just accommodating..."

Boss Bei lost his patience and asked someone to "invite" Mo Hong out.

Standing at the door, Mo Hong looked at the four characters of Beicai Casino above his head, and suddenly felt dizzy.He lost the largest bookstore in his family, and he said that if he wanted to make up for it, his father would definitely kill him.And what, you have been so patiently persuading yourself before, what should you say when you go back?He wanted the title deed to make money, and he didn't expect to lose it at all.

The distraught Mo Hong held the boy's arm blankly: "Tell me, what should I do? What should I do..."

The boy didn't know what to say, and he persuaded the young master more than once to accept it, but...

No matter how entangled, no matter how regretful, Mo Qingjiang still knew, Mo Hong forgot his promise when he went out, not only entered the casino again, but also lost the bookstore he had worked so hard to manage for more than ten years, this is simply a disgrace to the Mo family .

"Nizi! Nizi!" Mo Qingjiang was so angry that he trembled all over and fell straight down. The Mo Mansion was in a panic again.

After finding a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, Mo Qingjiang calmed down a little. While asking people to lock Mo Hong into the firewood room, he was not allowed to take half a step without his order, and at the same time sent someone to contact Boss Bei quickly, and paid the land deed to him. Redeem it back.

Lin Zhan was sitting by the bed, holding a medicine bowl and serving Mo Qingjiang to drink the medicine. What happened to Mo Hong this time also frightened him. In addition, the master fainted again, his heart was really in his throat.

"Master, don't worry, Boss Bei will definitely agree to redeem it."

Not long after, the boy sent to the casino came back with bad news.

"Master, Boss Bei said that the land deed has been bought."

"What did you say?!" Mo Qingjiang's eyes were wide open, and the huge shock and atmosphere accelerated his breathing. He felt his eyes darken and passed out again.

"master!"

"master……"
