Borrowing money, this word should be a word that many people don't like very much.Most of us know one thing, borrowing money is easy but paying it back is difficult.Many people in modern times have a bad experience of borrowing money.It's fine when you lend money to others, but when it comes time to ask for money, the person who borrowed the money is reluctant in every way.I have to go after it, it hurts both sides of the face, I don’t want it, and it’s very annoying, after all, no one’s money is blown by the wind.Duan Jie's concept of borrowing money is that he will not borrow too much, and he will give away the borrowed money, and he will not rush. If you take the initiative to pay back, Duan Jie will classify this person as a reputable person , It's easy to talk about borrowing money next time.But the kind of people who don't pay back the money can only borrow from him once, and if they continue to borrow next time, they will be gone.

"I, I really can't do anything, brothers of the Yu family, please help me." It turned out that the youngest son of Ren Feng's family was sick, and the doctor came to see him a few times, but he didn't recover.It cost more than one tael of silver in less than half a month just to grab the medicine.Ren Feng also borrowed money from several families. Everyone is not too rich, and each family can only lend him a limited amount. Seeing that the family's money is almost used up.Hearing that Yu Shi made money from selling medicine, he wanted to try it out. If he could borrow it, it would be considered as saving his youngest son's life.

As the saying goes, if you don't save the poor, Ren Feng is really in trouble, not to mention borrowing money, even if you give him some money, Duan Jie thinks it's nothing.But the current situation is that if he spends one penny today, someone will say that he spent ten pennies tomorrow.Today he borrowed Ren Feng's money, and tomorrow someone else will ask him to borrow money, and you can borrow from him.In the end, it might not be enough to put all the money in the family.If you can't lend money, you will be poked in the back, saying that this person has forgotten the original when he gets rich.

"Brother Ren, to tell you the truth. If it's borrowing money, I'm not very handy here. Although I got some deposits for selling medicine a few days ago, I still have to buy medicinal materials. Pharmaceuticals need materials, right? Dozens of taels of silver a year may seem like a lot, but you can only earn a few taels after deducting the principal, and you have to pay taxes. Not to mention the pharmacy, you will lose money if you pay the medicine a day late, alas! But Brother Ren Don't worry, I got to know the buddy of Guangshantang because of selling medicine and buying medicine. Brother Ren, if you want to grab medicine, go there with the prescription. Let's go together tomorrow. I'll talk to that guy. Let’s see if he can take the medicine on credit, let’s get the child’s illness cured first, and then slowly pay back the money to the pharmacy.” Duan Jie first laid out the difficulties, and then proposed a compromise.The so-called medicine on credit, in fact, he put the money into it himself, but this blocked the opening for borrowing money and helped others.

When Ren Feng heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, he gave Duan Jie a big gift, thanked him and left.Duan Jie didn't expect that because of today's incident, the rumors in the village would be calmed down a lot.After Ren Feng went back that day, he repeated Duan Jie's words to his family, and it spread within a few days.Those who heard it went back and thought about it, and felt that this was indeed the case.In fact, to make medicine and sell it, you must first buy the medicinal materials for making medicine. The medicinal materials have always been cheap, and these may cost a lot of money.Such a big pharmacy, the shopkeeper is so shrewd, how could Yu Shi make so much money by himself.The fact that the villagers believed this so quickly also had something to do with Yushi's honest image in the past. Everyone thought that this child was very well-behaved and didn't have many twists and turns. Who would have thought that the child had actually changed his mind.In this way, the news of Yu Shi's fortune was finally suppressed, and Duan Jie gained a lot of peace.These are things for later.

On the second day, Duan Jie's family of three took Ren Feng to the town.Duan Jie took people to Guangshan Hall first.As soon as I entered, I greeted the clerks in the pharmacy in various ways.The acquaintance of the two reassured Ren Fengkan a lot. It seems that Brother Shi really has a good relationship with the buddy, and maybe he can really get medicine on credit.

"Come on, let's talk further." Duan Jie pulled the boy over and said in a low voice: "Standing over there is a big brother in my village. His child is sick and has no money to buy medicine. I will give you three taels of silver first. , when the eldest brother comes to pick up the medicine, the money for the medicine will be deducted from here, and he will be told that the pharmacy gave him credit. The limit is three taels, and if it exceeds the limit, don't credit it. When he comes to pay back the money, you guys Give me back the money, how about it." Although it is to help people on credit, Duan Jie will not continue to bear the burden, there is a limit to helping people with money, and after that limit, he can only Stop it.

The guy nodded, patted his chest, and agreed.It's just a random nonsense, and it's not too troublesome. The left and right pharmacies can't lose money or suffer losses.Duan Jie saw that the clerk agreed, and gave the clerk dozens of coins, "Bring this money to my brother for a drink."

The guy had a smile on his face, and pushed him a few times, but Duan Jie forced him to collect the money.

Ren Feng grabbed the medicine and said countless words of thanks to Duan Jie and the guy before returning home.After sending Ren Feng away, Duan Jie, who rarely came to town, took Sang Feng to cut the mutton.The business of the butcher shop is really booming today, many people come to cut their meat, as long as they have a little bit of condition, they will come to cut some meat back, even if it is only a catty, it is also a meaning.Duan Jie handed the tuantuan to Sang Feng, and went to squeeze it. It took a long time to get in.

After snatching a leg of lamb and a few catties of lamb bones, Duan Jie squeezed out of the crowd again with a 'stern' face, "Come on, let's go buy a small copper pot, buy some sesame paste, leek flowers, let's go back to eat lamb mutton today go."

Seeing Duan Jie coming out, Tuantuan stretched out his little hand, "D, Bobo." Duan Jie frowned subconsciously, "It's dad, not Di, it's hug, not Bo."

"Drip, Bobo." Tuantuan insisted on his pronunciation.Duan Jie looked at Tuantuan with a melancholy face, he had been teaching the little guy how to speak for so long, how could this kid's mouth be so stupid.Dad who has not yet learned to pronounce the correct pronunciation.

Tuantuan didn't care so much, nestled comfortably in Duan Jie's arms, and when he was free, he pulled his father's hair and stuffed it into his mouth.

I didn't buy much this time, and I went back to the village just after noon.This time Duan Jie learned a little better. When he was about to reach the entrance of the village, he took out a piece of cloth and covered the contents of the basket before entering the village.Because it is the slack season, there are many people sitting in several sunny places.Basking in the sun there, saying some short words.Duan Jie also greeted them when he saw them, "Brother Shi, you are capable now, what are you planning to find in the future. You can use my aunt to match you."

Duan Jie smiled and glanced at the woman who spoke, "Auntie's clothes look really energetic today, they must be new. Tsk tsk, look at the fabric, it's so fine, but it cost a lot of money." The best way for aunts to tease or solicit matchmaking is to change the topic, and be sure to solicit topics that the other party likes. This is the summary of Duan Jie's bloody and tearful experience over the past year.

Sure enough, the aunt laughed and showed off her newly made clothes to others. Duan Jie heaved a sigh of relief, exchanged a few words with those people, and took Sang Feng back home.

Tuantuan had already fallen asleep on the road, and the little guy was protected tightly by Duan Jie, so he didn't freeze.Duan Jie put the sleeping balls on the kang, and put the leg of lamb outside to freeze.Only when the meat is slightly hardened by freezing can it be sliced ​​into thin slices.If it is unfrozen meat and you want to cut it into thin slices, it is a bit troublesome.

After freezing the meat, Duan Jie washed a clean earthen jar, rinsed the beef bones bought the day before yesterday, put them in the jar, added [-]% water, and boiled it.In fact, it is said that this boiled mutton is better to boil the bottom of the pot with mutton bones, but mutton is prone to fishy smell.If you use mutton bone soup as the bottom of the pot, you also need to add a lot of things to remove the fishy smell.Firstly, Duan Jie didn’t know much about it, and secondly, he couldn’t buy many seasonings that are common in modern times here.Simply use beef bone soup as the bottom of the pot, anyway, beef bone soup is just as good.

Peel a pot of cabbage leaves, arrange sliced ​​potatoes, sweet potato slices, radish slices, vermicelli, and mushrooms one by one, and then serve a serving of frozen tofu, and the dish is complete.Minced garlic, chive flowers, sesame paste, chopped shallots, chili oil, although Duan Jie's self-service ingredients are quite simple, they taste good.Seeing that the frozen mutton was [-] to [-]% hard, Duan Jie took it off, cut a full three to four catties, and filled a small pot full.

The thin mutton slices were cooked as soon as they were rolled in the soup. The tender and rotten mutton made the two of them unable to stop eating, and the small pot of meat was swept away in a short time.Then came tofu and various vegetables. Duan Jie loosened his belt twice after eating for one meal.As for Tuan Tuan, he ate a few pieces of smashed tofu and vegetables, but the meat was not touched.

The next day, Duan Jie went to get the pork he had ordered. This pig was newly killed yesterday. Duan Jie had given him the money for the meat, and ordered him to leave fifteen catties of meat, half fat and half lean.When taking the meat home, Sang Feng was still taking a bath in the back room. Taking advantage of Sang Feng's inconvenience, Duan Jie grabbed four chickens and ducks from the farm.He quickly wiped the necks of the chickens and ducks, bled them, boiled water to remove their feathers, and when Sang Feng came out, he saw four clean chickens and ducks.

"Brother Yu, where did you buy your chickens and ducks? They are so fat." Sang Feng stared at the four chickens and ducks endlessly.Duan Jie, who was frying small crispy meat in the kitchen, heard this, and read a few words, without moving a bit every day, offering good pasture mixed with corn kernels, nesting in the pasture, eating and sleeping, eating after sleeping, can you Are you fat?

"Ah Feng, come and help me." Duan Jie called out from the kitchen, and Sang Feng ran to the kitchen, and saw the pieces of meat rolling in the boiling oil, making a crackling sound, and the color had turned slightly yellowish. The aroma became more and more intense, "Take out that big basin, it can hardly hold it."

The two of them worked non-stop for a day, and fried out several pots of crispy meat, meatballs, and chicken nuggets.The beef was also marinated.Duan Jie rubbed his waist, let Sang Feng help him back into the house, grinned and said, "My old waist."

Duan Jie lay down on the kang and was about to rest for a while, when he saw a little meaty ball crawling towards him drooling while laughing after a day's sleep.Seeing such a spirited meat ball, Duan Jie became depressed.
