The Only Favourite Ugly Husband: 72|Go home and sell chickens and ducks
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the ugly husband!
After Jiang Zhen came out of Zheng's house, he went to the dock again.
The cargo on the two ships has been almost moved, but he has to collect some subsequent payments, and he has to deal with some subsequent matters.
Survived from this busy schedule, it was dark, Jiang Zhen did not rush home, but slept all night on the boat, and he was not the only one who chose to do this, in fact, except for a few My family was in the county seat, and the others basically stayed.
Everyone doesn't like to walk at night these days.
After a trip out and doing a business, Jiang Zhen was in a good mood, so he bought a few chickens and set up a big iron pot on the shore to cook the chickens.
He actually wanted to buy pork more, but it was too late and there was no pork to sell at all.
The chicken is cut into small pieces and put in an iron pan to cook. A large pot of soup is boiled, and the noodles are boiled in another pot. When the noodles are ready, put two spoons of chicken broth on top. Had the hot chicken noodle soup.
Jiang Zhen ate two bowls, put down his chopsticks, and found that the people in front of him had already started talking.
These people are all men. They have no idea if they haven't gone out before, but this time they went out with Jiang Zhen, but they yearned for the outside world, and even felt that they were totally different.
The people around them have basically never left Hecheng County. What about them? They have been to Fucheng!
These people chatted up, all of them were very happy, and they felt more belonging to this team.
People in these days are actually much more foolish than modern ones. Jiang Zhen felt that he should be able to let these people die to himself before setting off for the capital.
Well... this adjective is useless, it should be said to be loyal.
"In ten days, I will take you to the capital." Jiang Zhen said suddenly.
"The capital?" Wang Haisheng was stunned, and almost jumped up. What did Jiang Zhen say? He wants to take them to the capital?
That's the capital...Can they go to the capital?
"Boss?" The others were also stunned, suspecting that they had heard it wrong.
The capital city is where the emperor lived. I heard that the palace is still made of gold! They can go to the capital? !
"It's the capital. Master Zheng asked me to send him to the capital. You have to perform well, and some will go. If you do not perform well, then forget it." Jiang Zhen said.
"Boss, we must do well!"
"I... Boss, I listen to what you say!"
"Boss, I have always been obedient!"
……
Those people surrounded Jiang Zhen, they were all excited, even Liu Heitou began to secretly look at Jiang Zhen--he is obedient now, is it too late?
Liu Heitou used to be a bully in the village, and he felt that he was already very powerful, but now...he suddenly realized that he was actually nothing before...
"Be quiet. If you are noisy, you won't have to go." Jiang Zhen smiled and exhorted a few more words: "Also, don't talk nonsense about this, or else... be careful. For your skin."
These people stopped talking immediately, but their eyes were particularly bright in the light of the fire.
The next day, Jiang Zhen first returned the two boats, and then walked to Hexi Village with Zhao Jinge Wang Haisheng and others.
Jiang Zhen has already paid down the wages he should pay. Wang Haisheng and others are very happy with the money, but Jiang Zhen himself has lost more than ten taels of silver. He didn't take it seriously, but Zhao Jin was a little worried and distressed. .
"Brother Jin, don't care too much, it's just over ten taels of silver." Jiang Zhen said.
Brother Zhao Jin opened his mouth and said nothing. This is more than ten taels of silver! In the past, all the belongings in their house were only a dozen.
"Doing business, there are always losses and gains, and no one can guarantee that they will earn." Jiang Zhen said: "What's more, next time I will definitely earn."
Brother Zhao Jin was finally comforted: "Well, I believe you."
Jiang Zhen is so powerful, he will definitely make a lot of money in the future!
After Jiang Zhen said such a thing, Brother Zhao Jin was soothed, but when another person said such a thing, no one in his family believed it.
"There is always a loss and a profit in doing business, and I haven't lost yet! What are you worried about? I will definitely make money!" Jiang Chengcai said to his family humanely.
"What do you rely on to make money? Just rely on that house of seafood? You can sell them quickly!" Jiang Chengxiang looked at his brother sarcastically.
When Jiang Chengcai got in a ship of sea cargo, he was very proud. He looked down on Jiang Chengxiang everywhere and ran on Jiang Chengxiang at home. However, he was only proud of it for ten days.
In the first few days, under the propaganda of Mrs. Jiang, people from Hexi Village and some people from nearby villages all came to Jiang’s family to buy seafood. Jiang’s seafood sold very well. It took a couple of dollars to sell.
Then... no one will buy it anymore.
Kelp and salted fish can be kept for a long time, and everyone doesn’t eat it often. People who know the Jiang family see the Jiang family doing this business. After buying some, they don’t need to buy it again for a few months. I won't buy any more, and Jiang Chengcai's goods will naturally not be sold.
But it’s not a problem to keep those things like this, you can’t keep them forever, right?
The Jiang family saw that they couldn't sell a kelp for several days, so they were anxious. After thinking about it, they learned the methods of those merchants in the county, soaked the kelp, and sold it for a penny.
However, after they did it, not many sold...how many people were there in their village? Not to mention that many of them have already bought dried kelp.
Jiang Chengcai had no choice but to sell it to the county town, but it was very hard to go back and forth, and not many sold...
Can someone else sell it in the county?
Jiang Chengcai is very lazy. At the beginning, he could work hard for a few days to make money. After a few days of tiredness, he would not be happy.
The goods are kept at home anyway, and they won’t break for a while. If they can’t be sold, they can’t be sold. If they can’t be sold, they can’t be sold slowly....Thinking about this, Jiang Chengcai didn't bother to go to the county to sell it.
But he thought it was okay to keep things, but the rest of the Jiang family knew that they couldn't do this-no matter how long the salted fish and kelp can be kept, they can't be kept stacked forever!
Today, Jiang Chengxiang, who came home, couldn't bear the smell of fish in the house. After talking about Jiang Chengcai, the two people quarreled.
"Okay, stop arguing!" Jiang Butcher shouted.
"Father, are you planning to indulge the second brother so much? Are you afraid that he will squander all the money in the family?" Jiang Chengxiang said.
"Where did I squander the money? I took out twenty taels of silver, at least the goods are here? How about you? Take out your twenty taels of silver, it really is a fart." Jiang Chengcai sneered. Tao.
Jiang Chengxiang was a little uncomfortable on his face, and looked at his parents: "Daddy, don't worry, when I pay my wages, I must pay half of it to the family."
"You will hand it in first!" Jiang Chengcai fought against Jiang Chengxiang again.
"Okay!" Jiang Butcher said: "Don't quarrel, become a talent, tomorrow we will pick up the burden and go to other villages to sell it together."
"Walking?" Jiang Chengcai frowned.
"How else do you want to go?" Jiang Tuhu wanted to eat his second son.
Before they held that Jiang Pingming knew that the person who bought their land was Jiang Zhen, but they didn’t tell them this. They borrowed a ship from Jiang Ping and asked Jiang Chengcai to get a bunch of sea goods back, but they couldn’t go every day. Can you borrow Jiang Ping’s boat?
Jiang Chengcai was unwilling to think of carrying the burden so far, but Jiang Butcher was angry...He didn't dare to resist.
Jiang Butcher is also worried. He goes out to sell goods, how can he do the work in the field? Sericulture at home...
Even though the two daughters-in-law were women, they were able to work. The work of plucking mulberry and raising silkworms was all done by women. As a result...Zhu Shufen picked only a few mulberry leaves and said After being bitten by a bug, Huang Min couldn't do it. Huang Min refused to do it. What's more, the two of them were pregnant.
It was a good thing to have a baby at home, but now the two of them are pregnant together, but it becomes a problem.
Jiang Tuhu suddenly felt that it might be true that the villagers said that Jiang Zhen was born with blessings. If Jiang Zhen did not leave, how could the family's life be like this?
Actually, the Jiang family’s life now is better than that of most people in the village. It’s just that it’s hard to change from extravagance to frugality. They can’t stand the hard work if they live in comfort for a long time.
The sorrow on the Jiang family is bleak, but the Zhao family is beaming.
After Jiang Zhen and others went out, Zhao Fugui and his wife, Sun Xiaoshan and his two children, five of them began to concentrate on their own land, raising chickens and ducks.
In those acres of paddy fields, Jiang Zhen had already asked He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng to help them plant them. Zhao Fugui only had to go to see every day and pull up the weeds. Don’t bother too much, they just serve the chickens and ducks wholeheartedly. .
The chickens are freed in the woods and they will find food for themselves. Just feed some bran every night. As for the ducks...
The ducks raised by the Zhao family are much more than the chickens they raise. These ducks are all fed to fish and snails.
There is a saying here, it is called winter mussel and summer snail. Winter is a good time to eat river mussel, and summer snail is the most plump.
Summer is already here now.
Snails don’t have much meat. If you want to burn it, you have to put oil in it. In fact, ordinary people don’t eat it very much, and occasionally children are greedy. Drop a few drops of oil and steam them. bowl.
For these reasons, the snails are very easy to catch. The rocks on the banks of the river often have a large number of snails adsorbed. Even if the boat stays in the river for a long time, the bottom of the boat can be completely covered by the snails.
Sun Xiaoshan has been with Wang Haisheng for so many years, boating may not have the strength to go long distances, but he is a good hand at catching fish and snails, and when Zhao Fugui was young, he also searched for food everywhere, and doing this is also no problem.
They came back every day to touch the snails and catch the small fishes. At first, Zhao Liu had to chop up the small fishes. The snails were crushed before they could be fed to the ducks. Later, the ducks could swallow the whole snails.
I don’t know if it’s because of the good food they gave. Those ducks grew very fast, and they did not take long. By now, some ducks have begun to lay eggs, and they have laid a lot.
The two of Zhao Fugui and Zhao Liu were reluctant to eat duck eggs, so they greeted in the village and asked the villagers to buy duck eggs and eggs in the past... As a result, they sold very well.
And this is not surprising.
For many people, such things as salted seaweed and salted fish are the existence of changing tastes. In contrast, they prefer eggs and duck eggs, and...
In these days, women who are pregnant with a child need to eat eggs and duck eggs to supplement, give birth to children, they need to eat eggs, duck eggs to supplement, and when the full moon is full, they will share bonus eggs, and they will also give eggs for birthdays. Two eggs, that is the most enthusiastic performance.
If you don't eat kelp, you won't eat it. This egg and duck egg are a must!
When Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin came back, someone came to Zhao's house to buy a basket of duck eggs, planning to buy them back to make salted duck eggs-going for relatives or something, salted duck eggs are just as good gifts.
"The duck at home is starting to lay eggs?" Brother Zhao Jin was a little surprised.
"Yes!" Zhao Liu smiled openly: "This is really good for raising ducks. You can exchange money so quickly! Even if you can't sell ducks, just sell eggs and duck eggs, you can slowly earn back the cost. "They actually took a lot of effort to raise ducks, but whether it was Zhao Liu or Zhao Fugui, they felt that it was nothing to spend a little effort.
"Ducks will definitely be sold." Jiang Zhen said: "Tomorrow we will go to the county to sell all the roosters and ducks, and buy some chickens and ducks back."
"You don't need to buy chickens and ducks anymore, we can incubate ourselves." Zhao Liu quickly said, although they didn't understand this before, they just need to learn.
"That's too much trouble, it's better to buy it directly." Jiang Zhen rejected Zhao Liu's proposal. It takes a few days to hatch a brood of chicks. It is too troublesome to toss, so it is better to buy it directly.
Actually, chicken and duck are quite cheap.
As for the raised **** and ducks, he can take them and sell them to the Zheng family...Zheng Yi is going to the capital, so he definitely doesn't mind buying some chickens and ducks back or picking them up or putting them on the boat. Give it to the crew.
He used to take two boats around Hecheng County. This is a water town, so he can dock to buy food from time to time, but if he goes north, he can't get to the shore for several days.
Early the next morning, Jiang Zhen and Zhao Fugui **** the chickens and ducks to be sold, and then carried them to the boat with a load.
The chickens and ducks they want to sell are actually not many, only 20 or 30, but because they are living creatures, it seems very noisy, as if the cabin is full.
"Jiang Zhen, can this really be sold at once?" Zhao Fugui asked.
"Yes, I have a way." Jiang Zhen smiled. In fact, for such a thing, the points he assigned to his men disappeared all at once... But this is the work he did for Zhao Fugui and Zhao Liu. Can't take the chickens and ducks they raise to give away.
Jiang Tuhu and Jiang Chengcai picked salted fish and kelp and were walking along the river. They saw Jiang Zhen and Zhao Fugui, and heard the conversation between the two.
Jiang Tuhu only felt uncomfortable in his heart. He was obviously his son, but he was called so affectionate by others' fathers!
Jiang Butcher stopped and looked at Jiang Zhen, but Jiang Zhen ignored him and went to the county seat after rowing.
Selling chickens and ducks is just a trivial matter. Jiang Zhen didn't go to Master Zheng at all, but found the housekeeper of Zheng's house, and then asked him if he wanted chickens and ducks.
Of course, the Zheng family has a Zhuangzi in the country, and they specialize in raising chickens and ducks, but for such a large family, there are not too many chickens and ducks.
Of course, in this society, there are no more chickens and ducks.
Those chickens and ducks were sold out at once. Because these chickens and ducks were very fat, but Steward Zheng was very satisfied, and directly told Zhao Fugui that there would be chickens and ducks next time, and they could be delivered directly to him.
In addition, they also want duck eggs in Zheng Mansion. Zheng Mansion has a special fleet, and salted duck eggs have always been one of the crew's favorite foods.
It was the first time that Zhao Fugui had dealt with a decent person like Steward Zheng. He was so excited that he stumbled upon his words. Later, he found that Steward Zheng was very easy to get along with, so he calmed down.
Steward Zheng did appear to be very approachable. He smiled and talked to Zhao Fugui, and politely sent away Jiang Zhen and Zhao Fugui. When he turned around, he told Zheng Yi about it.
"Then Jiang Zhen should have no shortage of money, and there are still a large group of people. I didn't expect that he would be willing to help sell chickens and ducks, and get his own duck feathers and chicken dung." Zhao Fugui said.
"Yes...he knows how to be grateful." Zheng Yi smiled and was more satisfied with Jiang Zhen.
People who know the good news, he can use it without worry.
As for Jiang Zhen's unfilial piety to his parents... After all, it was the Jiang family who did too much.
After Jiang Zhen and Zhao Fugui sold the chickens and ducks, they went to the pier to buy some chickens and ducks. They also discussed with the people who sold the chickens and ducks and asked them to incubate more and go home in a few days. buy.
Jiang Zhen pondered, it should be fine for Zhao Fugui, Zhao Liu and Sun Xiaoshan to raise a hundred chickens and ducks.
"Father, in the future, you will raise chickens and ducks. Don't do everything by yourself. You can use eggs, ducks and eggs to exchange snails and small fish with villagers." Jiang Zhen talked to Zhao Fugui about business.
Zhao Fugui nodded again and again, Jiang Zhen's brain is really easy to use!
Think about it carefully, the bran can also be exchanged for eggs...
"Also, don't be reluctant to eat and drink. Each person always wants two eggs a day." Jiang Zhen said again.
"Two eggs a day? How can I eat like this?" Zhao Fugui frowned immediately, but he was very happy. He had already planned to go back and talked to Zhao Liu.
He doesn't talk to the villagers, he talks to Zhao Liu.
