Rebirth in another world is good for farming

Mai Mai has adapted well in the school, and Zhang Xiaoliu has never heard him complain about hard work or embarrassment after school. Instead, he is happy every afternoon when he comes back.Considering that it was cold in winter and hot in summer, Zhang Xiaoliu asked him not to go home at noon, and joined five or six other people at Mr. Chen's house.At noon, a bowl of miscellaneous rice mixed with pickles, a steamed bun, and a boiling water pipe are enough, and each meal costs five cents.Although it is not as good as the food I eat at home now, it can still fill my stomach.

In the past few days, the rice wine brewed in the house has also been successfully fermented. Zhang Xiaoliu turned over the wine twice and found that the wine brewed this time was not worse than the last time, so he was relieved.It's just that there was no chaff in the house when making wine this time, so he had to smear a thick layer of yellow mud on the outer wall of the wine jar.The mud is insulated from heat, so the effect of burning like this is similar to that of burning with dark fire.The front of Zhang’s house faces the mountain. Every household’s daily garbage here is swept to a place not far from home, and then set on fire after a while, so his two fires did not attract attention.

Zhang Xiaoliu was trying to grasp the time, this time he just finished making the wine and went to the market just in time, but it had been more than ten days since shopkeeper Huo came to the village last time.He didn't dare to delay any longer, he filled a small jar with the smallest jar that he originally planned to buy for oil, and drove Zhang Wushu's ox cart early to go to the market.Ling Jun had already met Mai Mai in the school, and of course Uncle Zhang also knew about him sending his younger brother to study, and discussed with him very appreciatively.But the other uncles who were sitting in the bullock cart didn't know much about it. Although they couldn't get in the way, they pricked up their ears to hear his words clearly, and they were going to have a good communication with others when they came back.

But since he had spent money to send the wheat in, Zhang Xiaoliu was naturally not afraid of what others would say.In fact, after brewing wine several times, he plans to earn money and build the house.After a month or two, the weather will start to become cool and dry, which is the right time to start construction.If it was later, people in the village would be busy harvesting in autumn and planting in winter again, and they would not be able to hire people to work even if they spent money.In the spring of the next year, the ground began to seep water, and there was a lot of rain, so it was impossible to start work.

Putting all these things to the back of his mind, Zhang Xiaoliu went straight to the wine shop with the wine jar in his arms.After entering, they found that there were only Xiao Shen, who had been to the village with shopkeeper Huo last time, and another thirteen or fourteen-year-old child in the store.

"Brother Liu, are you here to bring wine?" Xiao Shen also saw him, greeted him with a smile, and asked enthusiastically.

"Yeah, I just had wine the day before yesterday, so I was afraid shopkeeper Huo was in a hurry to ask for it, so I brought it here first." Zhang Xiaoliu returned him with a smile, which made him look very cute on his immature face.

"Brother Liu is really thoughtful. Since shopkeeper Huo came back, he has been looking forward to your coming every day. Fortunately, he also knows that brewing wine is not an easy job, so he dare not rush. It's just a coincidence that he has something to do at noon today, so he went to shopkeeper Zhang. In the restaurant. Brother Liu, please wait a while, I'll let someone shout, and the shopkeeper will be back right away." After that, he whispered a few words to the child, and the child ran out quickly.

"Come on, Brother Liu, drink a glass of water to cool off first." There was no customer in the store at this time, Xiao Shen poured cold water and handed it to him, saying kindly.

"Thank you." Zhang Xiaoliu was so hot that he came all the way here, so he took it unceremoniously and drank half a glass.

"Brother Liu, the wine you brew is really delicious. Last time we only had three jugs left in the store. Someone tried it and bought them all." Xiao Shen stood beside him and talked to him.

"It's shopkeeper Huo's business that is doing well, but it's not necessarily because of my wine." Zhang Xiaoliu was a little confused, wondering why he was so enthusiastic, and thought about it before saying.

"I tasted it and felt that Brother Liu's wine is very different. What did you add to it?" Xiao Shen asked curiously.

"But it's all brewed from glutinous rice and water, so how can you add anything? If you add something, won't the wine be ruined?" Zhang Xiaoliu looked directly at him and asked pretendingly puzzled.

"Xiao Shen, you talk so much today? Brother Liu, do you still want to learn how to make wine?" There was a sound at the door, and shopkeeper Huo's fat body had already walked in.He happened to hear Xiao Shen's words, and immediately stared at Xiao Shen several times.

"Where can I learn anything? Isn't it because I didn't control my curiosity..." Xiao Shen rubbed his head and said aggrievedly.

"Shopkeeper Huo." Zhang Xiaoliu didn't know if Xiaoshen wanted to inquire about something. Seeing that Shopkeeper Huo stopped him, Zhang Xiaoliu ignored him and stood up to say hello to Shopkeeper Huo.

"Haha, although I can't wait, but I have to say, Brother Liu's speed is quite fast." Shopkeeper Huo walked up to him with a smile on his face, looking at the wine jar he brought on the ground, very happy .

The wine tasting was also very smooth, the shopkeeper Huo just took a sip and couldn't help nodding, took out the prepared deed and signed it with him.Zhang Xiaoliu glanced at the content in black and white, and asked him to read it to himself. It seemed that there were no omissions, so he pressed his fingerprint.From next month, he will provide shopkeeper Huo with twenty buckets of rice wine every month at a price of 350 Wen per bucket.After signing the contract, he was also happy in his heart.

Twenty buckets, 350 Wen, a quota of seven taels of silver a month.After deducting the money for buying glutinous rice, I may have to buy some firewood, wine jars, and other tools for wine making in the future. In any case, there is no problem in making a net profit of five taels of silver a month.

Run to a well-off life!Zhang Xiaoliu was barely able to restrain himself from laughing out loud, and thanked Shopkeeper Huo pretending to be calm.

"Brother Liu, shopkeeper Zhang bought a peach wood carving with you last time, do you remember?" The deeds were put away one by one, and shopkeeper Huo asked again.

"Remember, is it the shopkeeper of Donglai Restaurant?" Zhang Xiaoliu would not easily forget such a generous person.

"Exactly. I just came back from him. He heard that you are coming. Let me tell you, don't forget to go to his restaurant. He promised to treat you to dinner when you come to town."

Isn't it just for politeness when people say this kind of thing?Zhang Xiaoliu was skeptical about the enthusiasm of the shopkeeper Zhang.But after thinking about it, he must also know that he has nothing to pursue, so it doesn't hurt to go there.It would be nice if I could get to know more people in the town.

"Thank you, shopkeeper Huo, then I'll go there now." After thinking about these things quickly, Zhang Xiaoliu agreed loudly.Now is not the time to eat, and the purpose of his going is not to invite others to treat him to dinner, but just to see why he let himself go there.

According to the address given by shopkeeper Huo, Zhang Xiaoliu went out of the alley and walked along the main road for half an hour. Sure enough, he saw the signboard of "Donglai Restaurant".The two-storey small building looks clean and bright, and it is probably one of the best in this town.

Before dinner time, although the door on the first floor of Donglai Restaurant was open, there was not even a kitten in sight.Zhang Xiaoliu walked in with some doubts, and saw a guy running down the stairs inside, walked up to him and said, "Young master, the shopkeeper is waiting for you upstairs."

Zhang Xiaoliu was embarrassed by his address, nodded slightly and followed him up.It seemed that the restaurant's business was doing well. Apart from the tables and chairs that he saw when he went up the stairs, there was also a row of boxes on the second floor. He soon saw the shopkeeper Zhang holding a child.

"Brother Liu." Shopkeeper Zhang was sitting on the side seat. He had obviously seen him from upstairs just now, so he asked the waiter to go down to greet him.At this time, I saw Zhang Xiaoliu coming up, and greeted him with the child in his arms.Zhang Xiaoliu was a little flattered by his demeanor.

The waiter made tea and brought it up, the kid over there was about to reach for it, but was stopped by shopkeeper Zhang.

"Brother Liu, I invited the Subduing Demon Buddha back from your home that day, and the child is really fine. It's just that you give up your love, which makes me feel uneasy all the time." Zhang Donglai put the child on his lap and let him hold him Dangling his arm, he was talking to Zhang Xiaoliu.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, you're being polite. The money you paid is enough for us brothers to live on for a long time, and it actually helped us." If he could have made money from brewing wine, I'm afraid he wouldn't take the three taels of silver to heart.But no matter what, he felt that he sold it for a good price, and he didn't feel reluctant.

"I heard Lao Huo talk about it today, so I realized that brother Liu had the same surname as me? That's really fate. I think the younger brother in your family is only a little older than my child, why don't you just call me Uncle Dong. Speaking of which, we Hundreds of years ago, it might have been a family, and this uncle is not taking advantage of you." Sure enough, Zhang Donglai loved the child very much, and it was hard for him to spare half of his attention to talk to him.

"If shopkeeper Zhang is not surprised, then I will have the cheek to shout." Zhang Xiaoliu was a little puzzled, this Zhang Donglai seemed straightforward, but he didn't know what the other party wanted to say after talking for a while.If it's just to discuss these things, it seems that there is no need to send a message for him to come over?

"Okay, I don't think you have any intention of staying here, so I'll tell you straight, I kill a lot of chickens in this restaurant every day, and I think your brothers are doing well, have you ever thought about enclosing a place to raise chickens? Chicken? If it is done well, our restaurant can be responsible for buying it.” Zhang Donglai felt that he was really his child’s lucky star, not to mention that when he saw Xiaba Village that day, although the place was a bit remote, it was good to raise chickens in a circle with beautiful scenery.

Zhang Xiaoliu was startled, Xin Dao really didn't know what kind of good luck he had hit recently, why did the business come to his door?It's a pity that winemaking needs cleanliness most, and raising chickens near home is definitely not enough.Moreover, Xiaomai has to go to school every day, Xiaosong can't help out seriously, and Zhao Zheng has to go to the fields and up the mountains. Even if he wants to find a place outside to raise him, he seems to be too busy.

"Uncle Dong's restaurant has been open for a long time, right? Where did you buy chicken from before?"

Zhang Donglai glanced at him appreciatively, thinking that he was just a child who grew up in the fields, but he was very sensitive to many things when he talked about it.Since the restaurant opened, he had acquaintances who regularly supplied live chickens, but the weather was too hot a while ago, and for some reason, a few chickens were infected with chicken plague, and almost nine out of ten of the whole batch of chickens died in the end.The chickens that are about to be slaughtered are hit by this, and the losses are very large.

Fortunately, his friend has also profited a lot from it in the past few years, so he finally swallowed his breath and decided to stop raising chickens and start another business.It is not easy to find another company that can supply so many live chickens every day. He is really grateful to Zhang Xiaoliu, so he wants to give advice.After all, the situation of Zhang's family is like that, it can be seen that there is no land and no strong labor force. If you want to change the status quo, raising chickens is really a good way.

"In the past, it was an old friend of mine who delivered live chickens to the restaurant every day. He decided not to do it after dealing with the chicken plague in his family last month, so he had this opportunity." Zhang Donglai did not deny that, after all, he It is decided to pull others a hand, there is no need to hide it.After thinking about it, he added: "You can think about it for a few days, but if I sign a contract with other people, it will be too late for you to do it. My restaurant can only consume a fixed amount of chicken every day."

Zhang Xiaoliu thought about it carefully, and his words were also very sincere. If this business came up before the brewing, he would definitely be overjoyed.But in comparison now, he himself prefers to let the wine brew well.If you can't chew too much, you can't be too busy when two things collide.Furthermore, the risk of raising chickens is greater than that of wine making, and the cycle is longer.But it’s undeniably good business too…

"Uncle Dong, can you allow me to think about it for two days?" It's definitely not feasible to do it alone, but just now he had an idea and thought of Cao'er.The eldest, second and third of their family can help, and there are three adults.Otherwise, Dashun’s family is fine too, if Fulai’s brother passes through the door, there will be more manpower...

In short, he didn't want to waste this opportunity.Although the specific number was not stated, it is not too much for such a restaurant to have dozens of chickens a day, and it will be terrible if it does it for a long time.

"Okay, even if you agree now, it will take at least half a year until the big chickens are ready for slaughter, which is not too bad. But you should think about it quickly, and ask someone to tell me." Zhang Donglai agreed, anyway, within half a year We have to find another way to solve the problem of live chickens.
