Chapter 238: There are few people who make a fortune in silence
Xiao Qiyu's body returned to normal, and Su Qian's cultivation skills improved to a higher level. Although Chen Yu could not understand what it would be like to improve his skills to a higher level, it did not prevent her from feeling happy.
In the letter, Xiao Qiyu also mentioned Mingzhu Mountain, saying that as long as Mingzhu Academy opened the mountain gate, he and Su Qianxiu would come back. Chen Yu was even more happy. Although Xiao Qiyu was not old, but his identity was revealed here, Jiang
The family will not keep an eye on the Su family anyway, which solves a potential big trouble.
Su Qianxiu also wrote a letter to his mother. Chen Yu asked Fu Niang to send it to Zheng Yue'e. Although Shao Li was not at home, Fang Fei was always in the school. I heard that she worked very hard. Read the letter
It's not difficult.
The autumn harvest has not yet begun, but the season for harvesting seven-star peppers has arrived. Min Yuchan brought Da Dagli back to harvest the seven-star peppers, and gave them money according to the quantity and quality.
The women in Sujiazhuang all have straight backs, and the smiles on their faces are becoming more and more confident. When it comes to making money, as long as they are diligent, they can earn more than the men in the family!
At first, it was said that seven-star peppers were purchased in two types: dried peppers and fresh peppers, but the harvested peppers were all fresh peppers.
Chen Yu asked Pang Li to bring someone over to handle the fresh peppers. All the fresh peppers with stems were picked out, and large sewing needles and threads were passed along the pepper stems. Strings of peppers were hung under a cool and ventilated shelf to dry.
.
Collect green fresh peppers of sufficient size and red peppers without stems and send them to Su Wulang to make chili sauce.
The women in the village got the money, and their faces were full of joy. Seven-star peppers are really expensive. Five hundred cash per pound is a sky-high price. Although they are grown on the idle land in front of and behind the house, the yield is very low, but this money
No one cares about income!
Everyone is thinking about planting as many varieties as they can next year. Some people couldn't help but mention it when they went back to their parents' homes. Over time, many people came here to see it, not Chen Yu, but Su Deyan.
Su Deyan's life has been going smoothly these days. The business at the wine shop is very good, and his parents-in-law are here at the workshop, so he doesn't have to worry about anything. However, people come to the house every three days to ask questions, and Su Deyan just
Somewhat unhappy.
Apart from anything else, how did the good days of Sujiazhuang come about? They were all given by the second sister-in-law, so people in other villages want a piece of the pie, bah! Want to seize the food from the tiger's mouth?
With this thought in mind, he went directly to see Chen Yu without any delay.
Chen Yu would check all the accounts every month, and the status of every transaction could be seen from the accounts, so apart from delivering water to the wine shop, he didn't ask much about it on weekdays.
Looking at Su Deyan sitting in front of him, Chen Yu smiled: "It's been a while since my third brother came here."
"Don't be surprised if my second sister-in-law is busy with business," Su Deyan said with a smile.
Chen Yu poured a cup of tea and put it in front of Su Deyan, then said: "How can I be offended? Being busy is a good thing. When you are busy, you will earn money. You can never have too much money to support your life."
"Yes, that's the truth." Su Deyan took a sip of tea and then said: "Second sister-in-law doesn't know, this person is always confused. For several days in a row, people have come to my house to ask about Qixingjiao.
, I want to hear what second sister-in-law thinks."
Chen Yu looked gentle and said slowly: "It's human nature. People either really want to help their parents' family, or they want to show off. After all, there are not many people who can make a fortune quietly. If someone wants to plant
That's okay. The price of pepper seedlings is one hundred cents each, and the purchase price is the same as the price in our village. But we must also make it clear to these people that there is no guarantee that the seedlings planted in the ground will yield a harvest. If the seedlings die, recruit
If there is a disaster, the Su family will not care."
Su Deyan knew that as long as he came to see his second sister-in-law, he would definitely come up with the best solution. After nodding his head repeatedly, he asked: "Are we really going to accept it?"
"Of course, the rules will remain the same. If the quality is no problem, the price will remain the same. Deyan thinks about it. Compared with the corn and seven-star peppers in the fields I rented, which one is most suitable for our village to grow?" Chen Yu looked at it.
Written by Su Deyan.
She expected that the person who cared about her family's land the most was Su Deyan in front of her. As expected, Su Deyan slapped his thigh: "Yes! My second sister-in-law said that I am right, so I called someone over to discuss it."
"That's not appropriate." Chen Yu quickly waved his hand: "The third brother is the village chief, so the discussion should not be held at my house. If someone really makes up his mind to plant it, it will not be too late to bring him to my house."
Su Deyan agreed with a smile. After Chen Yu's words and the face given by Chen Yu, he, as the village chief, had to be tougher, otherwise there would be people gossiping behind his back, saying that the head of Sujiazhuang was the second son of the Su family.
Grandma, he doesn't want to hear this.
After seeing off Su Deyan, Chen Yu thought of the Zhou family. Those people came over to ask about long-term workers and renting land. Only Zhou Dabao said that he wanted to be a long-term worker. His wages would be paid from the beginning to the end of the year, but food and drink would be paid monthly.
It sounds like the wages are not much, a strong laborer only gets three taels of silver a year, but food and drink are the big part. Chen Yu has seen the accounts, and a strong laborer can get a bushel of sorghum, a bushel of millet and two kilograms of pork a month. These are not enough for food and drink.
Talking about the money, the five strong laborers in Zhou Dabao's family can get five bushels of sorghum, five bushels of millet and ten kilograms of meat a month!
Not only does the family have enough to eat and drink, the women also do odd jobs and grow seven-star peppers. It seems that the first family to turn over this year is the Zhou family.
Of course, we are talking about ordinary people. Su Deyan made a lot more money, because Su Deyan still had business.
As for those who work part-time, they are only paid fifty cents a day, but they do not provide food and drink, and it is impossible to have work every day. This year, they have been busy digging ditches for a while, otherwise they will be dead after planting.
Only a few days of work can be done until there is an autumn harvest.
Seeing that the autumn harvest was coming, Chen Yu had to ask about these things.
After having some free time in the second half, Chen Yu asked Geng Ruchun and Su Cheng to come over. Zheng Yue'e took the accounts, and the four of them sat down to talk about the autumn harvest. While they were talking, it started to rain outside.
Accompanied by the sound of rain, Chen Yu lowered his eyebrows and listened to Geng Ruchun talking about things in the fields. As expected, there were only six people from the Zhou family, father and son, as long-term workers.
"Are they diligent in their work?" Chen Yu asked Su Cheng.
Su Cheng nodded: "Good farming skills, starting early and working hard at night."
"Then when the settlement comes after autumn, we will give you three more months of food, and then give each person an extra two taels of silver." Chen Yu said to Zheng Yue'e.
"Hey." Zheng Yue'e quickly wrote it down.
Su Cheng moved on his chair, and when he saw Chen Yu looking over, he said, "Second sister-in-law, isn't it a bit much? Rich families don't pay so much for work."
"This year's harvest should be good." Chen Yu looked up and looked at the heavy rain outside: "As long as there are no floods, it will be a good harvest year. Since the Zhou family and his son are good farmers, there will be more long-term workers next year, so they can take the long-term workers to work.
Already."
Geng Ruchun said: "Mom, I'm afraid they won't rent the land to us when they see our corn harvest."
"So, aren't others jealous of the fact that the Zhou family lives a prosperous life? Whether to rent or not is their business. Our family also has a lot of land, so it doesn't matter." Chen Yu had other plans, and Li Sizhong was promoted.
Finally, if we really want to take up the matter of corn planting, the Su family will earn a lot of money from selling corn seeds. The higher the starting point, the bigger the pattern will be.
Zheng Yue'e glanced at Chen Yu and said to herself: My mother-in-law is amazing! No one can control her at any time!
