Li Chengcheng's help and promotion to him will make the fourteen-year-old boy grateful for the rest of his life.
"Just think of this coal stove as a gift to my employees! The weather is getting colder and colder. Not only will a stove be warmer, but you can also use hot water anytime and anywhere. But you must open the windows for ventilation, otherwise the coal will burn."
Poisoned, do you understand?" Afraid that Xia Yunlai didn't know this common sense of life, Li Chengcheng couldn't help but give him some advice.
"Thank you, Sister Cheng Cheng." Xia Yunlai was very moved. His biological father would not care so much about him. His grandparents also favored the younger brother born by his stepmother. Only Li Chengcheng treated him so well.
Li Chengcheng must be the noble person in his life!
Xia Yunlai ate a bowl of fragrant white rice porridge, and his physical strength recovered a lot. He was no longer as weak as before, and Li Chengcheng left.
After Li Chengcheng left, Xia Yunlai got out of bed and closed the door. When he turned around, he saw something extra under the bed. He hurriedly walked over and pulled out the things under the bed. He saw milky white rice and golden yellow inside.
of millet.
There are also twenty eggs, bacon trotters, and bacon heads.
How could such a good thing be made here? What if someone came to the door smelling the smell and framed him for stealing? He could only cook it in the middle of the night, wait for everyone to go to sleep, and cook it on the coal stove.
Looking at these things, he was so moved that he almost cried. At home, he couldn't even eat food, let alone meat. Every time he bought a piece of meat at home, it cost them a few cents. He couldn't taste even the smallest bit of oil.
Less than.
Xia Yunlai secretly vowed in his heart that he must listen to Li Chengcheng and help Li Chengcheng do everything well. In the future, whenever Li Chengcheng needs something, he will never refuse.
In the evening, Li Chengcheng told Bai Dashan about this matter. Bai Dashan thought about it and agreed. He made an appointment with Xia Yunlai for a delivery place. From now on, he only needs to send things to Xia Yunlai and let Xia Yunlai take his time.
Just sell it slowly.
Anyway, Xia Yunlai lives in the town, so he can sell it slowly. Now that the weather is cold, wild fruits are not so easy to spoil. If you can't sell them one day, you can sell them the next day. Besides, the town has a large population and consumption intensity is also high.
Big, there is nothing that cannot be sold.
In the past, Bai Dashan would sell everything within one or two hours in the morning, which shows that there are still many people in the town who are willing to spend money.
After that, Bai Dashan took Xia Yunlai to sell for a few days, and then they made an appointment in a remote place. Bai Dashan sent the things to be sold there every day, and Xia Yunlai took them to the town to sell, and then the next morning,
When Xia Yun came to pick up the goods, he just gave Bai Dashan the money he earned on the first day, and he kept one yuan as his salary.
Li Chengcheng and Bai Dashan both know how much they can earn from a day's worth of things. If the money is less, they will naturally find that although Xia Yunlai does not have a good family or education, fortunately he is a pragmatic person who does not know how to do things.
Taking an extra penny from them also made Li Chengcheng decide to keep him and help him develop in the future.
Although it can't make him rich, it can still make him a little money and slowly lead a good life.
At the end of October, the late rice harvest in Anju Village began. The weather has been very good and the autumn air is crisp. The late rice harvest was quickly finished. After the rice was threshed and dried, the public grain was handed over first, and the rest was stored in the warehouse until the end of the year.
Just divide it among everyone according to their work points.
The dried straw is also bundled into large bales and distributed to each household according to population.
Bai Dashan and Bai Laoer borrowed wooden carts to transport the straw home and piled it into a simple thatched shed in the yard. This way they could avoid getting the straw wet when it rained. If the straw got wet, it would be impossible to cook.
The firewood is kept in the woodshed, and the straw can only be placed in the thatched shed. Because the straw is large in quantity and requires a lot of space, the woodshed simply cannot hold so much straw.
Li Chengcheng poured two glasses of warm water and brought them out to them, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard." Bai Laoer shook his head and reached out to take the teapot handed over by Li Chengcheng. Seeing his eldest brother's life prospering, Bai Laoer felt envious. He also really wanted this kind of wife and children who would be on the hot bed.
good life.
Bai Laoer said while drinking tea, "Brother, now that the late rice has been harvested, let's find some time to pull out the straw roots!"
Li Chengcheng asked in confusion, "What are you doing pulling out straw roots?"
"The dried straw roots can be used as firewood, and they are more durable than straw. Some straw roots also have loaches under them. Although loaches are not very tasty, they are also meat, aren't they?"
When they were young, they were very poor and had nothing to eat, so their eldest brother took them to dig for loaches, eels, and snails. They ate whatever they could. Some people exaggerated and even ate rats and locusts.
Li Chengcheng's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly, "When are you going to pull out the straw roots? I'll pull it out with you."
In her previous life, she saw a rural blogger on a short video pulling up straw roots and a nest of loaches under a tree. It was very interesting to watch. Although the loaches could not be sold at a high price at this time, she could put them in a cave and wait until
I will sell the loach in a few years when the price is high.
Anyway, the cave is not small and can hold a lot of things. The most important thing is that things will look the same when they are put into the cave. They will not change at all no matter how many years they are left there, even if they are left there twenty or thirty years later.
It’s okay to sell it later!
And as time goes by, this wild thing becomes more popular, and the price becomes higher. Wild eels can be purchased for dozens or even hundreds of pounds, and loach can also be sold at a good price.
With the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the crushing of cultivators and harvesters, this kind of wild thing will become increasingly rare in the future, so the price will become more and more expensive. She can collect more now, and wait.
After a few years, the village allocated farmland to each household, and he raised it in his own field.
She and Bai Dashan have two more children. If each person has one acre of land, a family of four will have four acres of land. When the time comes, crops will be planted on it, and loaches and eels will quietly grow in the mud below, without anyone noticing.
Because these things are hiding in the mud, do people still come to dig up the mud in their fields to check whether there are such things?
"Okay." Bai Dashan looked at Li Chengcheng dotingly and nodded. Going to the fields to pull straw roots was a bit hard but not dangerous. She could go too.
Bai Laoer drank the water, handed the teapot to Li Chengcheng, and pushed the cart back. This time it was to transport the dry straw belonging to his family. Bai Dashan handed the teapot to Li Chengcheng, held her head in hers
He kissed me on the forehead and went out to catch up with Bai Laoer.
Bai Laosan has returned to the army, and now they are the only two left. Can't they help each other?
