In the end of the world, I made my fortune by farming my boyfriend [farming]

One cut of meat can be cut into more than one catty, or more than two catties. How much to cut depends on whether the relatives who are going to leave are close or not.

The butcher raised his eyebrows to indicate to Xu Jing how much he wanted to cut.

Xu Jing said, "Cut a catty and a half out."

Liang Liangzi watched from the sidelines, and muttered, "Why cut so much? Aunt Yingzhen's family is not good to you."

The butcher raises a knife in his hand and cuts out a piece of meat without weighing it. He strokes a few straws, pokes holes in two pieces of meat, one big and one small, skewers them with straw, and carries them to Xu Jing. , "Take it."

Xu Jing took it, "Thank you."

Xu Jing bought a lot, and the butcher gave him half a pair of livers, and greeted him warmly, "Come again next time."

"Well, I wish you a prosperous business."

The butcher smiled and waved to Xu Jing.

Liang Liangzi followed Xu Jing all the time. Xu Jing originally wanted to give Qi Yunzhi some of the things in his back basket, but he couldn't find a chance.

Seeing him keep changing shoulders, Liang Liangzi suddenly realized, "Too heavy? You didn't say it earlier!" He couldn't help but take the pannier from Xu Jing's body and put it on his back.

Qi Yunzhi saw him at the side and looked at him silently.Liang Liangzi couldn't help shrinking his neck, and suddenly felt a chill in his neck.

Buying meat, buying rice, buying melon seeds for the new year, buying red paper, buying firecrackers... Xu Jing and Liang Liangzi went around and left nothing behind.

When they were about to go back, Liang Liangzi bumped into his mother.His mother searched for him all morning, but she couldn't find anyone, and her stomach was full of anger. Because of the year, it was not easy to lose her temper, so she could only drag him back to her team.

Liang Liangzi's mother also greeted Xu Jing, "Xiaohe, have you bought everything? Come back with us?"

"It's still close, auntie, you go back first, and I will go back after I go shopping."

"Hey, it's okay, you can go shopping again. The New Year's Fair is chaotic, so be careful. Everything here is yours, right? Let's carry it back for you first, and it will be delivered to your home later."

Xu Jing couldn't handle ordering her son in front of her, so he hurriedly said, "No need, Auntie, I can do it myself."

"It's okay, Liangzi has rough skin and thick flesh. It's okay to memorize 01:30 more." Liang Liangzi's mother said quickly, "You let him memorize it. You have helped him with his homework so many times, and now it's just time for him to express it."

Hearing what she said, Xu Jing was not good at arguing with her on the street, so he smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm sorry."

"What's the trouble? Come to my house for New Year's Eve dinner later, you know?"

Xu Jing smiled and didn't answer.

After Liang Liangzi and his mother went back, Xu Jing went around again and bought some daily necessities and seasonings.

Since noon, the taste of the New Year has been very strong, and every family kills chickens and ducks, steams paste and pastes them.

Xu Whale didn't fall, he didn't have to slaughter chickens and ducks, and he didn't sell the wild birds that Qi Yunzhi caught two days ago to the system. At this time, the five wild birds were boiled with blood, cleaned and put in the cupboard, frozen hard. Just pass the pot today and fry it with the side dishes.

The meat of the wild bird is tender and delicious. It can be fried with mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots, radishes, garlic sprouts, sauerkraut...anyway, it is delicious.

There are also fish, which are big fish weighing more than two catties. Xu Jing plans to make a sweet and sour fish later, which will be more than enough every year.

Xu Jing took a small notebook and sat outside counting the New Year's goods. Qi Yun, who was steaming the paste in the kitchen, said loudly: "It's done."

"So fast?" Xu Jing put down his notebook, hurried to the kitchen, took a pair of clean chopsticks, opened the lid of the pot, fanned the steaming heat, and checked the situation in the pot.

The shallow paste in the middle of the pot has become translucent, Xu Jing picked up a little paste with chopsticks, and squeezed it with his hands after it cooled a bit.There was a sticky feeling in his hand, almost like glue. Xu Jing smiled and said to Qi Yunzhi, "Brother Qi, it's alright, no need to continue steaming."

Qi Yunzhi nodded, put the remaining firewood into the ashes under the chest to extinguish the fire, then scooped water out to wash his hands.

Xu Jing and him came together to wash, their hands were intertwined, Xu Jing couldn't help looking at him and smiling.

The paste has been boiled, and the next step is to cut red paper and write pairs.

The red paper was folded a few times shallowly by the seller, and Xu Jing only needed to cut it with scissors without thinking about how big it would be.

The new scissors are extremely sharp, and they cut the red paper into several pieces with a few "suosuo". In addition to the pairs, there are also banners and four-character pairs hanging from the door. Taking advantage of the amount of paper, Xu Jing cut a few more open.

Put a stack of ink in a small dish, Xu Jing soaked up the thick ink with the brush that had been run off early, then skimmed off the excess ink, and wrote the first pair.

He was too lazy to use his brain, so he wrote traditional couplets such as "Spring returns to the earth and the world is warm, blessings come to Shenzhou and Xilinmen".

Qi Yunzhi watched him write, Xu Jing held his breath and wrote three or four pictures in a row.When the last pair of red paper was left, Qi Yunzhi suddenly reached for the writing brush in Xu Jing's hand.

Xu Jing looked at him in surprise, with inquiry in his eyes.

Qi Yunzhi frowned slightly, but he didn't let go of his well-articulated hands.

Xu Jing carefully asked: "Brother Qi, do you want to write a pair?"

After reacting for a while, Qi Yunzhi nodded, Xu Jing handed him the pen, and stood sideways to watch him write.

Without hesitation, Qi Yunzhi dipped his ink into the ink and quickly wrote two lines: The sky grows, the years increase, people live longer, and the world is full of spring and happiness.

These fourteen characters are full of grandeur, full of strokes, and one can tell at a glance that the person who wrote them has many years of calligraphy skills.This pair is not like the ones used by ordinary people. Ordinary people spend the New Year's day sticking to the pair to seek wealth, blessings and children, and it is rare for them to be so generous.

Xu Jing silently thought about Qi Yunzhi's background, and Qi Yunzhi had already written down the banner: Four seasons are safe.

Xu Jing has always known that Qi Yunzhi is not an ordinary person, now thinking of his current situation, he can't help but sigh.However, it was the festive time of the Chinese New Year, so Xu Jing didn't worry about it too much. After thinking about it for a while, he put it down, picked up the pair he just made, and started posting the pair a few rooms away.

Qi Yunzhi's picture was pasted at the gate. Qi Yunzhi was tall, so he could paste the pairs very neatly without having to lift a stool.With him around, the pairs in the two families were quickly posted.

Xu Jing smiled at Qi Yunzhi, packed up the remaining pen, ink and paper, and dragged him into the room to wash his hands.

Seeing that it was not early, Xu Jing found a basket, put the cut of pork and two catties of fruit bought in the morning into the basket, and found the fruit jelly candy bought from Nanchen's living area, and put a catty of them out together.

The sun was good in the afternoon, and many people were basking in the sun and chatting on the big drying field, both men and women. When Xu Jing went out with the basket, many people saw it, and some people inevitably asked: "Xiaohe, are you carrying this full basket?" Where does the basket go?"

"Give my cousin a new year's greetings." Xu Jing replied with a smile.

"Hey, your cousin is so lucky." A curious woman came closer to see, "What did you buy?"

"It's nothing." Xu Jing smiled and didn't want to say more.

The woman had already stretched out her hand in front of the basket, pawing and tugging casually, "A big knife of pork, pears, fruit jelly. Such a heavy gift!"

As she spoke, the woman couldn't restrain her envious gaze.

When the rest of the people heard it, they gathered around to look at it one after another, boasting all the time: "When it comes to filial piety, it's Xiao He who is filial, and gave your cousin such an important New Year's gift."

"That's not right! My nephew just brought over a piece of pork and two cabbages yesterday."

Someone heard that the woman was complaining, but she was showing off, and sighed: "Your nephew is not bad, I have three nephews, when his family was too busy in the past two years, I went to help cut the crops every year." , and no one said hello to me. I didn’t even bring me a straw during the Chinese New Year.”

"Xiaohe is still kind. Hehe, Xiaohe, your cousin's family treats you so well, why don't you give them a New Year's gift?"

"Yeah." Xu Jing didn't listen to their provocation, and smiled as if he didn't hear, "I'll go to my cousin's house first, and then I'll chat with everyone when I come back."

"Hey, you have to remember that the aunts are waiting for you here."

"Yes, yes, have you returned to your home? How about the comprehensive service center in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River? Come back and tell me, so that the aunts can open their eyes."

Xu Jing waved to them and rushed to Liang Guotao's house with a basket.

During the Chinese New Year, Liang Guotao's family was at home, and Guo Yingzhen was instructing his family to scrub the furniture with hot water. Among them, pots, lids, cutting boards and other things had been washed until they were shiny, and they were drying in the sun.

Seeing Xu Jing approaching, Guo Yingzhen asked, "Xiaohe, why are you here?"

"Biao Aunt." Xu Jing saw her friendly attitude, as if she had never had any quarrels, and said with a smile: "Chinese New Year, I will give your family some New Year's gifts."

As he said that, Xu Jing stood at the door of the living room and called people one by one: "Uncle Cousin, Grandma, Brother Dashi, Second Sister, Xiaobao."

Liang Guotao responded with a deep voice, Li Yinxiu responded uncomfortably from his throat, Liang Dashi hummed in a low voice, Liang Ermei and Liang Xiaobao ignored it.

"Hey, you're still young, what kind of New Year's gift are you giving? Come in, come in." Guo Yingzhen put down the work at hand, and beckoned Xu Jing to come in and sit down.

Liang Xiaobao and Liang Ermei were cleaning the tables and chairs, but Xu Jing stood inside and didn't sit down.

Guo Yingzhen washed a cup and came out, poured tea for Xu Jing, and patted Xiaobao's head by the way, "Don't call anyone, what's your manners?"

Xiaobao reluctantly called out, "Brother Xiaohe."

Xu Jing responded with a smile, and said to Guo Yingzhen: "Biao Aunt, don't be so busy, I'll go back later." As he spoke, Xu Jing took out the New Year gift from the basket. weighty.

Xiaobao's eyes lit up when he saw the red and green marshmallows on the table. If his mother wasn't standing beside him, he would have reached out to grab them.

Xu Jing put down his things and was about to leave, Guo Yingzhen hurriedly stopped him, her smile was a bit forced, but she quickly returned to normal.Turning around, she took a piece of bacon from the room, and she forcefully stuffed it into Xu Jing's basket, "You also know the situation at my cousin's house, and my cousin has nothing to return to you. The bacon dried this year is not bad, you can take it home and try it. "

Xu Jing did not refuse, "Thank you, Aunt Biao, you are busy first, I will go back."

"Okay, you can come over to have a New Year's Eve dinner later."

"No need." Xu Jing refused.

Guo Yingzhen said without hesitation: "If you want, you are only cousins ​​and relatives here. If you don't come to eat, why don't you have to eat alone on the New Year's Eve?"

Li Yinxiu also chimed in, "What is the family fussing over about having an extra pair of chopsticks?"

Xu Jing didn't respond, just smiled and left.

Guo Yingzhen watched his small back slowly walk away, feeling as if something was stuck in her heart, very uncomfortable.

When Xu Jing went back along the same route, the women who were basking in the sun on the sun-drying field in Renyuan District were still there.

Seeing this scene, Xu Jing intentionally avoided them.A sharp-eyed woman smiled and shouted, "Hey Xiaohe, where are you going? Come and tell your aunts about the Integrated Service Center in the Middle and Upper Reaches of the Yangtze River?"

Xu Jing had no choice but to turn around.Qi Yunzhi next to him frowned, Xu Jing hurriedly took advantage of others not paying attention, quietly took his hand, and gave him a peaceful look.

"Aunts, I have to go home and cook New Year's Eve dinner."

"You are a boy and a half, what do you do for New Year's Eve dinner? You come to my aunt's house to eat after listening to my aunt! You have taught my boy homework so many times, and my aunt hasn't thanked you properly yet."

"Don't listen to her, come to my aunt's house to eat! My aunt's house bought beef this year, it's delicious."

"Aunt Shuanghua, you rich and powerful, are you making money this year?!"

"Not much. You can earn a little if you come and go in the wind and rain all year round." Aunt Shuanghua smiled. "This year is a good year. Who doesn't earn money?"

"Hey, that's hard-earned money earned from one petal of sweat and eight petals. I'm not willing to feed this mouth."

"Listen to you! Who killed the chicken today?"

The woman who spoke against Aunt Shuanghua didn't speak after hearing the words, and just laughed aside.

A man said: "You girls are too good at interrupting, let Xu Xiao Zhuangyuan here, you must be impatient!"

The people around laughed when they heard the words.

Ever since Xu Jing got full marks in the exam, some people in the Renyuan living area called him Xu Xiao Zhuangyuan in private.

Xu Jing smiled: "Nothing."

"That's right, our little champion is very patient." An aunt next to him took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket and stuffed them into Xu Jing's hand, "Little champion, eat melon seeds. By the way, tell us about your life in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River." service center."

"It is said to be a comprehensive service center in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, but in fact it is just like that. Everyone works and eats the same. The rich people eat meat every day, and the poor people worry every day."

"Hey, I even made up a jingle. How is it, is it big in there?"

"Big." Xu Jing said: "But I just looked at it a few times, but I didn't see it clearly."

"Just know it's big, I heard there are flying cars there?"

In Xu Jing's mind, those single-seater cars that he saw that day flying in mid-air emerged in his mind, and he nodded.

The people next to him couldn't help but admire, "It's rare for us in rural areas to see flying cars in our lifetime."

"What's the point of this, let your son and daughter study hard, go to an outside university, and then take you to enjoy the blessings, won't you be able to see it? Let me say, for the Chinese New Year, say something happy, Xiaohe, drive that day Who brought you back? Your father?"

The only person who drove him back was the businessman who bought ginseng. Xu Jing thought to himself, no wonder this group of people were so enthusiastic today, they were waiting here.He didn't show his face, shook his head and said: "No, it's just a businessman who asked me to buy medicinal materials."

Everyone praised in unison again: "You boys have dug up medicinal materials and found success, and there are people who come so far to ask you to buy medicinal materials?"

Xu Jing's mind turned rapidly, but he said in his mouth: "It's actually a coincidence. Didn't we dig up some Dendrobium candidum? The businessman's father happened to be hospitalized in the hospital and wanted to buy medicine for nourishing qi and nourishing yin. The old doctor in the pharmacy knew I just recommended it."

"This is already amazing! Like us, there is no place to sell medicinal materials. If you take a little medicinal material for testing, people will find it troublesome."

"It's okay, save as much as you can, and sell if you have more." Xu Jing smiled, "We just searched with a group of friends, and took advantage of the quantity. Other things, the quality of the medicinal materials is really inferior to the uncles and aunts. , we are not as careful as you, many medicines are defective, and the processing is not as good as yours."

"How can I say this? No matter how careless you are, you can still earn tens of dollars, and you have met a doctor. The medicinal materials of the aunts can only be kept at home to listen to the rats."

"That's right, the key is that medicinal materials are incomparable to other things. This thing can't be kept for a long time. If it is kept for a long time and stored improperly, the efficacy of the medicine will lose, so don't give it to other people's families." A woman sighed, "In the past, Liang Huayu's grandfather would still Collecting medicinal materials, the W-ray content is so high now that no one can tell, and the medicinal materials have to be specially sent for testing if they want to sell them, which is too troublesome, and the labor costs may not be earned back."

Xu Jing had wanted to buy medicinal materials for a long time, but when he heard it now, he didn't understand.

He pondered for a moment, put on a embarrassed face and said: "It stands to reason that I am here to rely on the elders to take care of me and grow up. If you have anything to do, I can help you. But medicinal materials—— "

"We know that." Aunt Shuanghua interjected, speaking quickly, "We will see that you are familiar with selling medicinal materials. If you don't want to do anything, just show us the way."

Xu Jing thought for a while, and said: "Well, if you trust me, you can sell the medicinal materials to me. I will buy them and send them for testing to help you run errands. But let me explain in advance that in general wild medicinal materials, the W content is between The medicinal materials within the qualified line are about one-third. If you want to sell the medicinal materials to me, I will buy them at one-third of the price. If the medicinal materials are of poor quality, I have to suppress the price and only pay one-fourth of the price. purchase price."

"Success, why not, it would be great if you are willing to take over this trouble, and of course the aunts can't let you suffer." Someone immediately made a decision, "If you are willing, Xiaohe, I will go home and bring the medicinal materials. The matter is over this year, so as not to delay the new year."

Xu Jing nodded, "Uncle, if you believe me, you can give me the medicinal materials. Excuse me, who is famous? Lend me too."

Chatting and chatting in the grain drying field, they talked about selling medicinal materials, the atmosphere became more and more heated, and many people came out to watch the fun.As soon as Xu Jing made this request, many people immediately went home to get the medicinal materials and weigh them.

If it hadn't been for this time, Xu Jing would not have known that there were so many medicinal herbs in the living area.Xu Jing's daring to say this is also because he has a real basis. He can detect whether the genuine and fake products and whether the W-ray is within the safe value. Others do not have this ability.

An uncle smiled stupidly: "They are all good things. If we see them, we will pick them up by the way. If we don't see them, we don't bother to look for them. After a year of accumulation, there are so many of them."

Xu Jing looked at the quality of the medicines and said seriously: "I only sold Dendrobium officinale, Salvia miltiorrhiza and wild Ganoderma lucidum. How about charging at this price?"

Many people in the living area knew that Xu Jing took a group of classmates to sell medicinal materials, and the details were repeatedly discussed. Everyone remembered the price clearly.Hearing what Xu Jing said, most people have no objection.

"What about the other medicinal ingredients?"

Xu Jing said: "If you trust me, other medicinal materials will be recorded first. When I go to sell medicinal materials, I will ask the people in the pharmacy and come back to see how much I will give you."

The person who asked the question nodded.

Some people were also worried about how Xu Jing would make money. Xu Jing said with a smile: "We were selling loose at the time, but now the quantity is large. Can I bargain with the people in the pharmacy and increase the price by one or two yuan per catty?"

Different pharmacies offer different prices. When Xu Jing went to sell medicinal materials, the price he sold was much higher than this, but the quality of his medicinal materials at that time was also good.Xu Jing was not worried that he would lose money, because he didn't plan to sell the medicinal materials to pharmacies at all, but wanted to sell them directly to Watchman.

Hearing what Xu Jing said, everyone had no objection. Every household had medicinal materials, and they all took them out and planned to sell them to Xu Jing.

Aunt Xu Jingqing Shuanghua and another fair-minded middle-aged man weighed the medicinal materials and kept their own accounts. The quantity of all medicinal materials was divided by three, and then multiplied by the price.

Most of the people in the same living area are more conscious, and the medicinal materials they take out are also the medicinal materials that have been harvested in the past two years. Xu Jing asked the Watchman to hide and scan aside, as long as the quality of the medicinal materials is still acceptable, he will not care.

A person with treachery in his heart came over, carrying a bag of medicinal materials and didn't know how long it had been stored, and the medicinal materials were even eaten by moths. Xu Jing frowned slightly when he saw the bioenergy displayed on the watch, "Uncle, how long have you stored the medicinal materials?" ? I'm afraid I can't sell it on behalf of you."

The man stared, "How long can it be? Isn't it this year's medicinal materials? My boss doesn't know how to handle them. If the quality of medicinal materials is a bit poor, you won't accept them. You won't be targeting me on purpose, right?"

Seeing Xu Jing being threatened, Qi Yunzhi took a step forward with his tall body.Xu Jing had seen his fighting power, so he quietly grabbed him and motioned him not to do anything.

Xu Jing calmly said: "I am young, but I am fortunate enough to have sold medicinal materials a few times, so I have a little understanding of medicinal materials. It is also possible to make mistakes. Uncle, please don't be angry."

Xu Jing didn't wait for the man to show a smug expression, and simply said: "I collect medicinal materials now just to help everyone run errands, not to make money. How is my family's situation, you also know that if this business loses money, I will definitely not dare to continue. Otherwise, Kaichun’s tuition fees will not be paid. If you insist on me accepting this medicinal material, I’m afraid I’m really powerless, or why don’t you just stop accepting everyone’s medicinal materials, so as not to say who it’s against.”

When Aunt Shuanghua and the others heard that Xu Jingkaichun's tuition fees were not paid, the expressions on their faces were already very anxious. At the end, they couldn't help but said: "Hey, it's the New Year's Eve, and you still have to be an old lady? You How about this medicinal material, everyone is not blind, you still want to buy and sell by force?"

"Buying and selling is what you like and what you want. Xiaohe doesn't buy if he doesn't want to buy it. We all stand here and see who dares to play tricks!"

Xu Jing didn't want to make a big fuss, so he just brought his medicinal materials back to his feet and let the next person come up.

The man ignored him, didn't want to pester him too much, and went back disheveledly carrying his medicinal materials.

The news from Guo Yingzhen's family was received late. They only heard that someone was collecting medicinal materials at the Dashenguchang, but the person who reported the letter did not mention who the person who collected the medicinal materials was.When Guo Yingzhen went over with the medicinal materials, he realized that it was Xu Jing who was surrounded by people.

Many people are asking Xu Jing to identify their own medicinal materials, Guo Yingzhen looks at this scene, feeling quite uncomfortable.
