reborn as a brother

The fog was thick and white, and the cold permeated the air.

Ji Anyi tightened his jacket, and said something again before leaving the house. "I'll go to Amo Liu's house for a walk."

"Yeah. I'll go to Brother Wang's house to sit down and tell him about the hen brooding." Hanging the clean rag by the window, Brother Zhang san answered while washing his hands.

There was a slight movement behind the house. It was Wang Xiaoer and the three of them who were tidying up the hedges. After collecting all day yesterday, the shrubs for two chicken pens were enough. No, after eating early in the morning, they just It started working in a hurry.

They were busy with trivial things in the house, and they wore thick jackets. The three of them carried hoes outside the house, so they put on cotton jackets. Wearing jackets is not easy to do physical work.

Not long after Ji Anyi left, Brother Zhang cleaned up the house, talked to the three people behind the house, and went to the next door to look for Wang Baoer.

When I went there, Wang Baoer was washing clothes, and the little fat man was sitting obediently in the wooden railing chair, wearing a red thick jacket, a rabbit hat and a furry scarf around him. Very cute.

Just a little dazed, with big round eyes, staring blankly at Ah Mo who was washing clothes under the eaves, holding a small steamed bun in his chubby little hand, and took a small bite, guessing that he had just eaten breakfast, and his stomach I was full and had no interest in the buns.

"Brother Wang, is the little fat guy awake?" Zhang San walked over and shook the little fat man's hand. The thickly clothed hand was not cold, but the little steamed bun on his hand was a bit cold.

Brother Zhang San tried it, picked out the little steamed bun, and threw it into the fire beside him.

Awakened by the noise, the little fat man turned his big eyes, and grinned at Brother Zhang San with a big smile.Opening his arms, babbling and babbling, his whole body immediately became alive.

"I have something to do, so I don't have time to play with him." Wang Baoer replied, dried the washed clothes, and entered the house with a wooden bucket and a small stool.asked. "Ji Geer went to Liu Ah's house?"

"Yes." Brother Zhang hugged the little fat man and teased him, the two of them laughed happily, very silly.

Wang Baoer continued to tidy up the kitchen, talking casually. "You're talking about hens hugging their nests. It's not a good season, it's too cold."

"Aunt Liu said the same thing yesterday, I thought, we can act together with Aunt Liu." Brother Zhang San immediately responded.

Seeing that the little fat man was clamoring to play on the ground, he bent down and put him on the ground.

As soon as he got to the ground, the little fat man was overjoyed, and with his short legs, staggering all the way, he rushed towards Ah Mo.

He was still yelling vaguely, his voice full of excitement. "kisses."

"I looked at him listlessly just now, but now I'm in good spirits." Afraid that the little fat man might fall, Brother Zhang San stood aside and looked at him nervously.

Wang Baoer was washing the dishes, saw the little fat man hugging her thigh, lowered her head, and smiled at him. "Hey, I'll take you to play later."

The little fat man hugged Ah Mo's thigh, looked up at his fair face, and laughed cheerfully, the corners of his mouth drooling.

Brother Zhang San came over and took the little fat man away. "This silly boy."

"That's right. Do you want to raise two pigs in your family? It is said that you are going to build a house in the second half of the year, and you will start raising pigs, which is very good. Last night, Ji Geer said that he wanted to open a shop in the town, and he was thinking about a stewed pork What, I will need pigs at that time. I plan to raise two pigs this year, what do you think? If possible, let’s buy piglets together. I know a place where the piglets are very good.” Thinking of this, Wang Baoer spoke smoothly. Just mention it.

"Speaking of this, I thought of another thing. When Ji Ge'er comes over, let's talk to him if it can work. If you want to raise pigs, sweet potatoes and vines are the best. Last time he mentioned it occasionally, If you say that sweet potatoes can be eaten as a whole dish, you just forget about it, and I don’t know if this method is feasible. If it is feasible, you can open up a wasteland and plant a variety of sweet potatoes, which kills two birds with one stone." Regarding pig raising, Zhang The third brother was quite excited.

Having said that, Wang Baoer also remembered. "Ji Ge'er seems to have said this once. He will come over in a while, and we will ask again. He really figured it out. Then we can have a good harvest this year."

"It's almost time to dig winter bamboo shoots, followed by spring bamboo shoots. Is this year's bamboo shoots sun-dried or made into hot and sour bamboo shoots? I have to ask Brother Ji. After these few days, I will be busy in the future, planting wheat and harvesting rice in spring Wait, all kinds of crops have to be raised. If you want to raise pigs, the pigsty must be built during this period." After sorting out the things in hand, Brother Zhang San said whatever came to his mind.

Wang Bao'er listened, and added a few words at the side, the two of them chatted one after another, kept the matter in mind, and talked to Ji Anyi when he came back, so as not to forget too many things.

This farming, after the season, cannot be saved.

Ji Anyi doesn't know that there are a lot of things waiting for him to discuss at home, so he will follow Ahmao Liu to Ahmao Zhong's house.

As for the craft of making tofu, only Zhong San in Hexi Village knows how to do it.

Somehow, the villages around Jingyang Town don't seem to like tofu very much, and there is no tofu stall in the town.

Ah Mo Zhong San still learned this craft from his own Ah Mo at home. Tofu is a common dish in Taoism, and every household knows how to make it. There is still a certain difference between good and bad.

When I came to Hexi Village, I saw that no one liked tofu, so Ah Zhong San put aside this craft.

When Ji Anyi and Liu Ah Mo approached him, he still couldn't react.

"I haven't done it for almost ten years, and I don't know how unfamiliar it is. How about this, I'll soak some beans at night and make some tofu tomorrow. Let's see how it looks." Speaking of the tofu craft, Zhong San Ah, I'm really a little nervous.

I have to lie in bed at night and think about it. If it’s really not working, I have to go home and ask Ah, and then pick up this craft again.

All the ideas that Ji Geer can think of are good ideas that can make money. The family also planted some fruit trees and raised some chickens. If the tofu can make some more money, life will be more comfortable.

"Success." Ji Anyi replied neatly, with a bright smile on his face.

On the way back, Ji Anyi said to Liu Ah Mo. "Ah Zhong San's tofu is very good. We can grow more soybeans this year. The soybeans are so good that they can grow anywhere."

Fish sauce also needs soybeans, and with the addition of braised tofu, the demand for soybeans has greatly increased.

"That's true." Liu Ama smiled, paused for a while, and said again. "I'll go to Zhu's house in the afternoon. His house has wasteland, so let them plant more soybeans."

Listening to the meaning, I am afraid that Liu Ah is very satisfied with the Zhu family boy.Before Axiu passed by, she was already thinking of going to La Zhu's house.

"Okay." Ji Anyi was very happy.

Axiu's ability to find a good partner is the most important thing, it doesn't matter whether she is poor or not, as long as she is a good person, she has a good personality.

When he got home, seeing that the door was closed tightly, Ji Anyi walked around to the back of the house. "Let's take a break, I'll pour you some warm water."

"Daughter-in-law, what's going on?" Wang Xiaoer tilted his head and smiled cheerfully.

Ji Anyi brought over three cups of warm water. "Ah, Zhong San, said to make some tofu tomorrow, let me see if it looks good. This is done, I have to go to the town the day after tomorrow to buy the ingredients and make marinade. Let's make some by ourselves and try it out. See how it tastes, and then think about the price."

"When the time comes, make some more pork knuckles. I like to eat them." After eating it last time, Wang Xiaoer couldn't forget it.

As soon as Xie Qi heard it, his alcohol addiction started. "There's no wine at home, so I'll call some back the day after tomorrow and have a good drink or two."

"Pork knuckles, pig intestines, braised pork, etc. In this way, the whole pig can be used, and it can't be wasted anywhere. The soup stewed with pig bones is especially delicious when made into noodles." When talking about this, Ji Aqiang thought What's more, I have to tell Bao'er that the family can raise as many pigs as they can.

Seeing Ji Ge'er's methods one after another, and the taste is very good, the business will definitely be good.

"Could it be possible to open another noodle restaurant?" Xie Qi answered casually.

As soon as these words came out, the other three were stunned, and all looked at Ji Anyi.This method seems to be good.

Suddenly, there was a feeling that it was so easy to make money.

It's as if you can grab money by reaching out and grabbing it.Sure enough, technology is a big problem. If the craftsmanship is good, there is no need to worry about money.

"We'll discuss it at that time. I'll go to the next door to find my brother and brother Zhang San." There's a lot to do, and it's time to tidy it up, Ji Anyi murmured in his heart, collected three empty cups and entered the kitchen, walked along the kitchen Went to the next room.

Hearing the movement, Brother Zhang looked sideways and smiled. "came back."

"Yeah." Ji Anyi sat down by the fire pit, and reached out to pull the little fat man into his arms. "This kid knows how to giggle all day long, and he doesn't know what he's having fun with."

Wang Baoer answered with a smile. "He's happy to see you here."

As if to prove Ah Mo's words, the little fat man hugged Ji Anyi's neck, kissed him wetly on the face, his smiling eyes narrowed into shallow moons.

"Naughty again." Ji Anyi pinched the little fat man's face, and said while teasing him. "I just came from behind the house and talked about opening a noodle restaurant. How do you feel?"

Brother Zhang San was stunned when he heard this. "Noodle shop?" asked again. "The shop is no longer open?"

"No. Xie Qi said that the noodles made from the soup made from pork bones are very delicious, and with some simmered rice seeds added, the taste is not to mention how good it is. Then I thought about opening another noodle restaurant. The shop opened, Killing a pig, pork intestines, pork knuckles, trotters, etc., can all be made into lo mei, it’s a pity to keep the pig bones, we can’t finish it every day, guess, Xie Qi thinks so.” Speaking of which, this noodle restaurant can actually be opened, Ji An Yijue, just happens to have two types of food in hand, one is lo mei and the other is breakfast.

"Speaking of it, Ji Geer's skill is to open a restaurant in the town." Wang Baoer answered with a smile. "For the noodle shop, plus the shop, you have to rent two shops. Will it be a bit difficult at the beginning?"

Ji Anyi thought for a while, and shared his general thoughts. "Well, let's go to the town in the morning to do business with the store, and in the afternoon to go back to the village to do homework, and it's the same when we are farming. The three of them will let them work in the village."

"Do you really want to open two shops?" Brother Zhang San asked in a low voice.

The cost of the two shops is not low. Although we all know that Ji Geer's craftsmanship is good, it's okay. This shop hasn't opened yet, and I haven't seen any reaction. I always feel a little empty and a little uneasy.

"Rent a bigger shop. Two-thirds will be noodle shop, and one third will be lo-mei. I'm busy with lo-mei. You and Zhang San are busy with the noodle shop. In addition to making pork bones and fresh noodles , You can also make egg buns, small steamed buns, tea eggs, white rice porridge, etc. You can also do these, and it's easy to arrange." Ji An felt that the noodle restaurant's business would be better than that of lo mei.

This……

Wang Baoer and Zhang Sangeer looked at each other, a little confused about what Ji Anyi meant.

"This is impossible. There is no rule." After a moment of silence, Wang Baoer replied vaguely.

According to this meaning, Ji Geer wants to do a partnership business, but he is the one who suffers from a partnership business, how can this be the case.No way.

Brother Zhang San also felt that this matter was inappropriate. "The two of us will do it for you."

"That's what I think." Knowing that the two of them had misunderstood, Ji Anyi explained with a smile. "The three of us are doing business in partnership. This is the way that the rent is divided equally between the three. I will take care of the lo-mei side, and the two of you will take care of the noodle shop. You will share the money earned by the noodle shop, and I will take all the money from the lo-mei side."

"That's not going to work either." Wang Bao'er immediately replied, and said again. "You taught us all about the food in the noodle shop. Now, we have opened the noodle shop and the business has been established. No matter what, I will get some money from you."

Brother Zhang San quickly answered. "Same. The money in the noodle shop is shared equally by the three of us. The rent of the shop is shared equally by the three."

"Yes. That's how it works." That's what Wang Bao'er thought. Seeing that Brother Zhang San said the same thing, he smiled at him.Again. "Usually you are busy with the things in the lo mei shop, you don't need to worry about the noodle shop. When the business is good, you can just count the money."

Ji Anyi looked at the two of them without much fuss. "Success. Let's make it so." Anyway, it's useless to talk too much, so it's better to be happy.

The relationship is already like that of a family member, there is no need to be polite.Naturally, it is better to be frank, and the friendship can be deeper.

At noon, the three families sat at the same table. At the dinner table, Ji Anyi and the three of them talked about the regulations discussed in the morning. Wang Xiaoer and the three of them listened and had no objections at all.

The thoughts of these three people are basically the same.Whatever the daughter-in-law says is what she says.

It has been decided to open a shop in the town. After the chicken coop is built, there are no important things left and right.

If you want to open a store, you have to go to the town to get familiar with it first, and organize things in an orderly manner before starting to make arrangements.

It's not easy to save a copper coin and a copper coin. You only have one chance, so you can't be reckless and cautious.

Among them, the most important is the storefront.

After wandering around the town for a whole morning, looking left and right, and asking Xiaomu and Xiaoshan for advice, I finally decided on the storefront.

The location is very good, and the place is spacious. It's bigger than one door, but not two doors at all, which is exactly what Ji Anyi wanted.

The rent of the two facades is expensive, and they don't need such a big space.

It cannot be rented for half a year, at least one year must be rented, and the rent for one year is seven taels of silver.

The price is a bit on the high side.

Of course, this is just for them, the price is on the high side.

Considering the geographical location and storefront, the price is fair and not too black-hearted.

That's what Xiaomu told them.If you are not satisfied, you can look for it again.

The rent is seven taels of silver. If you want to earn some money, you have to earn at least 20 taels a year to see the money.

Jingyang Town is only the size of a palm, and it is an old town. There are all kinds of shops in the town, and there are regular customers. If you want to start a business, you really have to have a lot of weight in your hands, otherwise, let alone make money. Unfortunately, it's already pretty good.

Ji Anyi didn't have any objections, he thought this shop was very desirable, but he didn't show it, he just looked at other people to see what they thought.

"I think this shop is good and the location is good." Xie Qi expressed his opinion.

Seven taels of rent a year, divided equally by the three families, is only about two taels, which is still affordable.

If the business really can't be done, it's a big deal, and the matter of building a new house will be postponed.

You can't open a shop in a corner just to save some money, what does it look like.The smell of wine is also afraid of the deep alley.

"Just this shop?" Wang Baoer looked at Ji Anyi.

He told Ah Qiang last night about the shop, they will go with Ji Geer.Ji Ge'er often deals with Boss Su, and when he starts this business, he will always know a little bit more than they do.

Facing everyone's gaze, Ji Anyi laughed out loud, and said cheerfully. "Everyone thinks it's good, then this pavement."

On the same day, the matter of the shop was implemented, and the few people took the paperwork and went back to the village happily.

They're all a little flustered, they're going to open a shop in town!

When I went to the town, besides the business of the shop, I also bought some materials for making marinade. In addition, since the shop has been settled, I have to hurry up and open the shop.

Ji Anyi was busy making all kinds of stewed meat, while Wang Baoer was in charge of the spoon and practiced making simmered noodles, while Zhang Sangeer was in charge of tea eggs, porridge, and egg steamed bun slices.

Wang Xiaoer and the three of them were busy in the store non-stop.

Everyone is busy with the things at hand, trying to make the shop open as soon as possible.

In such a busy and hot hour, something happened from above.

Prince An ascended the throne and changed his reign name to Yongchang.

The first half of last year's disaster-stricken areas were exempted from taxation.In addition, for villages looted by horse bandits, each household will receive five taels of compensation.

This was great news, causing a sensation in the entire Hexi Village.

Tax exemption for the first half of the year, what a surprise.

Now that everyone is busy with things, they are more motivated.All the harvest in the first half of the year can go into my own pocket.

Here, Ji Anyi and the others hurriedly rushed to work, and five days later, the shop opened.

Fresh noodle shop.Lo mei vegetarian.

There are two signboards on one pavement, and these two signboards are also very distinctive and unique.

Of course, Ji Anyi deserves the credit, he specially put a little thought into the signboard.

It was just dawn, and before the rooster crowed for the first time, the three couples couldn't fall asleep. They got up early, washed and dressed, and even ignored breakfast, put on the ox cart and walked happily to the town.

For the new store to open today, it must open early.

The little fat man also seemed to know that there were a lot of delicious food today. He was very energetic in the early morning, and he was the most lively and excited when he was yelling all the way.

When I arrived in the town, it was just Mao Shichu, and the whole town was still sleeping.

When Wang Xiaoer and the others were tidying up in the shop, they came out in a small space, just for the little fat man.

He opened the shop door, took out the little fat man's wooden railing chair, and put it into the cabin inside.

"Let's play alone first." Putting the little fat man in the wooden railing chair, everyone was busy with the things in hand.

The door of this hut is open, so you can see the whole shop, and it is also convenient for everyone to glance sideways at the little fat man when they are busy.

I'm used to staying in this wooden railing chair, the little fat man doesn't cry or make trouble, instead, he has a bright grinning face, big round eyes, and follows the busy adults around, babbling in his mouth Acridine shouted joyfully, and clapped her hands dishonestly.

I just played alone, and the more I played, the more vigorous I became.

The freshly baked lo mei is emitting a fragrant heat, which is particularly obvious in the early morning air.

After a while, someone walked in.

"What kind of fragrance is that, bring me a plate." He swaggered and sat down.

From the figure of this person, one can guess that he must be a meat eater.

Wang Xiaoer walked over in a hurry. "What do you want? We have a lot of flavors here, you can try it first."

As soon as the words finished, Xie Qi quickly brought a plate over.

There are all kinds of lo mei on the plate, and the portions are very small. With just one chopstick, you can only taste one flavor. If you want to eat more, you have to pay for it yourself.

"Is this elbow meat?" Just cut a little bit, and it's gone before the taste is enough.The man asked with wide-eyed eyes.

Fortunately, he has a poisonous tongue, and he can taste one, two, three.

As soon as Wang Xiaoer heard it, there was something going on, and his smile became hotter. "Yes. It's elbow meat. Would you like one?"

"Here's a whole piece. This stewed pork is also a whole piece. Give me a knife and I'll cut it myself. Are there any steamed buns or something like that?"

When Brother Zhang San heard this, he hurriedly answered. "Yes. There are steamed buns, meat buns, rice porridge, fresh noodles made of good bone broth, tea eggs, etc. They all taste good."

"Here are three steamed buns and a bowl of rice porridge." Hearing that, the man ordered two more.

This morning's first order is still very substantial.

Not long after, someone came in, looked left and right, and finally ordered a bowl of fresh noodles.

After Chen Shi, the whole Jingyang Town became lively, and more and more people came over.

There are also some who just come in to look at it. The layout of this shop is beautiful, and it is much more comfortable to look at than ordinary noodle shops.

Lo mei is slightly more expensive, and not many people buy it.The price of the noodle restaurant follows the prices in the town, and the business seems to be very good.Another reason is that people generally don't eat meat early in the morning.

Ji Anyi was not worried. After waiting for a long time, the lo mei became famous. Everyone knew that he only opened the shop in the morning, and the business came naturally.

Come here for an early breakfast, and buy some braised meat for lunch at home. It's also a good dish.

So fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant...

The little fat man didn't eat breakfast, he smelled a lot of aromas, his mouth was drooling, and he kept making noises in the wooden railing chair.

Ji Anyi was not busy here, so he carried the little fat man to his cubicle, went to the side and brought a bowl of rice porridge and a bowl of fresh noodle soup, and enjoyed the breakfast in the large and small lo-mei room.
