Chapter 122 Start Construction(1/2)

As the saying goes: Money is a man's courage.

Wang Susu was so happy that her family's food was sold for so much money, but it was rare for her to let go.

After a while, I wrote most of the paper in the small notebook, which was densely packed with things I wanted to buy.

Chen Ling took a look. In addition to what he just mentioned, there were also two new sets of quilts and bed rails. The last two lines said to buy some good fabrics and prepare to make him some decent tea clothes.

He bought a few pairs of leather shoes so that they would be convenient for him to wear when he went out to do some errands.

"Susu, write down whatever you want to buy. Don't keep buying it for me. I still have enough clothes and shoes."

When Chen Ling saw that nothing on the paper belonged to Wang Susu except what was needed at home, he couldn't help but remind him.

Wang Susu was stunned when she heard this. She bit her pen and blinked. After thinking for a while, she raised her head and smiled at him: "I really don't want to buy anything. I have food and clothing at home. When we got married, my mother gave me the fabric."

Also, after two years of storage in the box, I want to make new clothes as soon as I take them out."

"Nonsense."

"That bit of fabric is enough to make a few clothes."

Chen Ling pinched her little nose and said: "It's not like our family has no money now. The leeks are relatively cheap today, and the sales are not too much. If we bring all the vegetables at home and sell them, it will cost two to three thousand yuan."

Everyone is here."

"We don't earn one and spend two. When we can't save any money, think about how many eggs, duck eggs, and quail eggs we have piled up at home these days. They can be sold for a lot of money. So, my silly wife

Ah, our house is different from before, it’s time for you to buy yourself some new clothes."

"snort."

"Just buy it."

Wang Susu dodged his big hand, wrinkled her little nose and snorted at him. Thinking that her life was getting better and better, her big eyes turned into crescents.

Today is the 19th day of the seventh lunar month, which happens to be the day when the county town has a fair. However, there is nothing for sale at these fairs. After breakfast, the two of them walked around the county town for a long time, looking for various shops and shops.

Only then did I buy all the things I needed.

By the time we rushed home, it was almost eleven o'clock.

Mainly because they met Qin Rongxian and Liang Hongyu during this period. The old couple took them home and sat for a while. Before leaving, they also asked them to bring a few bags of rice and noodles. This was because they knew there was a shortage of food and were worried that he would be in charge of people when building a new house.

There was nothing to put in the pot during the meal.

But how can Chen Ling ask for it? We have known the old couple for a long time. From the old turtle at the beginning, to the rice dumplings, and now to the rice noodles, every time I see the two elders, they always give this and that.

Apart from taking care of a few meals and giving some peanuts and vegetables, I didn't say anything else.

Thinking about it, Chen Ling couldn't help but feel ashamed. How could these two elderly people, who were neither relatives nor friends, just take advantage of the two elderly people? He quickly pulled Wang Susu to persuade them to stop. Then he took advantage of the excuse to go to the toilet and slipped in.

After adding two buckets of stream water to the kitchen, I felt a little more at ease.

"Actually, Uncle Qin and Aunt Hongyu are right. There is a shortage of food everywhere now. No matter in the city or in the village, everyone is worried about food. Let's prepare it in advance. Otherwise, after the house is built, the few bags at home will be lost.

There’s not much left of rice or noodles.”

Wang Susu obviously listened to what the old couple said and became worried in this regard.

"Indeed, it's time to stock up on some food. Let's wait until tomorrow when the vegetables are sold. I'll go around again."

Chen Ling thought for a while. Apart from the small amount of relief food distributed at home, there was only a few bags of flour given by Chen Yingqiang. There wasn't much left. In a few days, people would come to build the house, and after a few meals, it was basically all gone.

So while rushing on the road, Chen Ling was thinking about finding a place to plant some wheat, rice, etc. in Dongtian these days. There are not many types. He only needs to plant about half an acre at a time. After harvesting, he will find someone to shell it.

You can grind the flour yourself, or you can do it yourself. The stone grinder in the backyard has not been used yet.

This is not a big deal.



"It's wealth and susu."

"Look, Fugui and Susu are back. They are fine."

"Uncle Fifth, what's going on?"

As soon as they got off the dam and entered the village, the oxcart was surrounded by people, leaving Chen Ling and Chen Ling confused.

"What time do you go to catch the morning market at night?"

"It's three o'clock, what's wrong?"

"Have you seen any wolves on the road?"

Wang Laishun's old, soy sauce-colored face drooped, and his eyes were red, which showed that he had not slept well.

Hearing this, the young couple immediately understood what was going on. They looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

"I didn't meet him, but I heard a wolf howling halfway along the mountain road. What's wrong, Uncle Wu, has the wolf entered the village?"

"I didn't enter the village before I entered the village. If the dogs hadn't barked at night and made every household quarrel, maybe a wolf would have entered the village."

Wang Laishun sighed deeply.

He raised his head and glanced at the two of them: "It's fine that you two are fine. Last night, my boss and Li Xian were frightened. I led people with torches to look for you on the mountain road several times, and then they all ran to the market.

I looked for you, but I didn't see you either, so I thought something had happened to you two."

Chen Ling was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly. The vegetables were sold too fast. Even if Wang Jusheng and the others came to find them, there would probably be no one left.

While they were talking here, Wang Jusheng and his wife came over in a hurry with two dolls. When they met, they punched Chen Ling first: "You kid, you scared me."

Wang Lixian followed closely with his family. He walked up and took a look at the couple. Seeing that the young couple were fine, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's fine. I told you last time at my house that there are wolves in the mountains these days."

Duo, don’t walk at night if you have nothing to do next.”

Chen Ling responded, smiled and nodded to a few people, feeling warm in his heart.

Then with a wink to Wang Susu, the two of them grabbed two handfuls of candy bars from the bag and distributed them to the little kids in the crowd, causing the little kids to cheer.

Only then did people notice what was on the oxcart.

"Oh, Fugui has made a fortune. He sold vegetables and came back to haul half a cart of stuff." Gu

"That's not it. I've made a fortune. Let's go and have a drink at my house this noon."

Chen Ling greeted with a smile.

"Whatever you want to drink, your kid is still the same as before and can't save any money."

"Why is money so hot?"

"Haha, my fifth uncle can't stand it anymore. You'd better save your wealth and keep it safe until your family builds a house."

"..."

"This is not easy. Once the vegetables are sold, we will build a house. Then we will have meat for every meal."

"Good guy, you dare to say this, it seems your baby is really crazy."

Most of the villagers had become familiar with Chen Ling by now, and they kept laughing and joking as they rushed home. When they were about to get home, Chen Ling invited him again, but no one was willing to go. They let the wolf make trouble last night.

I didn't even sleep well, and I was just about to have lunch to catch up on my sleep. I didn't have the energy to go drink at his house.

So after the two returned home, they had a hasty meal and rested for a while.

In the evening, when the weather got cooler, I sent some food to every household that had come to help as a small gesture.

In the next few days, Chen Ling originally planned to go selling vegetables alone, but after Wang Susu went there, she also wanted to go with her. There was nothing busy at home recently, so she stayed at home alone.

So I just took her with me.

The remaining vegetables were sold six times in total. The two of them had breakfast every day and rushed to the city. After selling, they saved the money and could get home by about ten o'clock.

In the first two trips, Chen Ling came forward to bargain with others, and Wang Susu followed the accounting. Later, when she got familiar with it, she also became interested and helped Chen Ling. The two asked for prices, and they cooperated very well. It was really better than

In the past, Chen Ling claimed that his daughter-in-law had been led astray by selling a lot of money.

Wang Susu smiled after hearing this, but she was very happy with it. Not only the vegetables, but also the eggs, duck eggs, and quail eggs at home were all processed.

Finally, including the 15,000 yuan from selling eels, the money in the bankbook turned out to be more than 60,000 yuan.

It made my little daughter-in-law dizzy and felt like she was in a dream.

"If I hadn't followed him there every day, I wouldn't have believed that our vegetables and two baskets of eggs and duck eggs from more than three acres of land could be sold for so much money."

"Yes, even if it's a year like this, if you want to sell it at this price in the future, you won't have the chance."

"That's okay, that's enough."

The little daughter-in-law was easily satisfied, sitting on the bed holding her bankbook with a happy smile on her face.

Then he calculated the accounts on his fingers and told Chen Ling that it would be no problem to feed seven or eight children with this money.

Unexpectedly, these words aroused Chen Ling's anger. He took off his shoes and climbed into the mosquito net. It would be good to have seven or eight children, but the husband had to come out before talking.

"Oh, no, I haven't eaten yet."

"If you don't want to eat, there is something more satisfying than rice."



After Chen Ling's hard work every night, there are more than twenty bags of wheat in the cave.
