Chapter 124 - You can make money in winter

After Lei Daqiang finished speaking, Li was writing a document according to what he said and reading it again. Everyone had no opinion. Lei Xiangzhi helped Lizheng copy several copies. After Lizheng, Lei Daqiang, Lei Xiangren, Lei Xiangyi, Lei Xiangli and Lei Xiangzhi all pressed their handprints, they each held a copy. Lei Xiangzhi did what he said, and he was about to hand a one hundred tael banknote to Lei Xiangren. Lei Daqiang and Du Shi stared at the bank note with eyes. Lei Xiangren recognized a few big characters, but he still gave it to Lizheng to recognize it and put it in his arms. He looked at Zhao with a smile, his head was raised, and he looked at people through his nostrils. The feeling was completely changed. Li Zheng got up to leave, Qin Mian and Lei Tie took the opportunity to leave with Li Zheng. Lei said to Ren eagerly, "Father, mother, my little mother is going to give birth in a few months, and my three younger siblings now have a body. It is too crowded for a large family to live together. I will buy a homestead now and strive to Build the house a year ago and move out." Lei Daqiang looked at him for a long while and nodded. Lei Xiangyi whispered: "Father, mother, I will move out as soon as possible." Lei frowned, "Where do I move out?" Lei Xiangyi smiled, "Thank you for your concern. I plan to build two pieces first. I live in an adobe house. I'll wait to save more money." After all, it's his own son, Lei Daqiang still cares, "Which two rooms are enough? In this way, the second child, you can lend some money to your third brother. Let him build two more rooms." "Father, don't look at this one hundred taels. I want to build a house, buy furniture, and send Dabao and Erbao to study. Which one does not cost money?" Lei asked Ren gave Lei Xiangyi an idea, "Third brother, why don't you go to the eldest brother's house to borrow, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are not short of money." "Yes." Zhao echoed. Lei shook his head to Yi: "No, I have decided, I will build two adobe houses to live in." Qian didn't interrupt. Qin Mian and Lei Tie lent them ten taels of silver, she would not disclose it. After Qin Mian and Lei Tie went home, they continued to make dumplings. The dumpling filling is made with local vegetables, lean meat and fried dough sticks, which is fresh and fragrant. After eating, the two came to the space. The brown bear is still recuperating in the space, its injury is almost healed, and it is very fun to play with a little white in the space. Lei Tie thought that Qin Mian would go to see the brown bear first, but saw him walk towards the flowerbed and stretched out his hand to stroke it gently. The two pink balls have been completely separated, chubby and really cute. When Qin Mian and Lei Tie touch them, their colors instantly become vivid and very interesting. Qin Mian can't tell how he feels now. The two pink balls seem to be connected to his heart. Even outside the space, he can emotionally perceive their "emotions". Lei Tie took a scoop of spring water and handed it to him, staring at the two pink balls thoughtfully for a moment, then turned to look at Qin Mian. Qin Mian was hairy with his eyes, "What are you looking at?" "You." Qin Mian calmly said: "You go on. The brown bear's injury is healed, we will send it back to the mountain now." At the beginning, he said that he would take the brown bear. Staying to raise it is just a joke. The two went out and walked towards the back mountain. Now that the brown bear has been rescued, it is impossible to kill it again. It would have hurt people by going down the mountain. The two of them walked deep into the mountains and released the brown bear and Yidian Bai together. Xiaobai found that the surrounding scenes had changed, knew that it was out of space, and understood that the owner was going to release the brown bear, screamed at the brown bear, and left with Qin Mian and Lei Tie. The brown bear stood there for a moment, turned and walked away, his huge body sank into the dense jungle. The next morning, Qin Mian was awakened by Lei Qin Le's screams. When I asked, I found out that the brown bear was carrying a wild goat that had been bitten off and weighed 40-50 jin early in the morning. Lei Qin Le got up early and opened the door to clean the fallen leaves at the door, shocked. Since then, brown bears have become "domesticated" like a little white. The villagers looked weird every time they mentioned Youran Tianju. They used to chat under the big tree not far away from Youran Tian Ju when they had anything to do. Since the brown bears settled in Qin Mian's house, even if they were killed, they didn't want to come. The people of Youran Tianju were horrified at first, but later discovered that as long as they didn't provoke the brown bears, the brown bears ignored them at all. And if you have a company for nothing, you often lose your family. At the end of October, the sweet oranges in the orchard began to mature. The fruit period of sweet oranges is from October to December, and the late-ripening varieties can extend to February to April of the following year. Leisurely Tianju entered another round of busy season. Qin Mian hired people to make 5,000 canned sweet oranges, five large jars of sweet orange sauce, and 20 large jars of orange juice, and waited until spring and summer to sell. At the same time, Shuangfanlou launched orange pie, orange soup and sweet orange rice wine juice. November is the harvest season for lotus roots. Lei Qin Zhong, Lei Qin Shun and other nine masters trained for months not only learning self-defense, but also learning archery, riding, and swimming skills. They are responsible for digging lotus roots. There are a few more dishes on the menu of Shuangfanlou and Qin Mian's dinner table, such as lotus root ribs soup, fried lotus root, sweet-sour glutinous rice lotus root, sweet and sour lotus root, pepper mixed lotus root, lotus root balls, etc. Love never forget. Because of a lot of family affairs, Lei Xiangren and Lei Xiangyi built a new house, but neither Qin Mian nor Lei Tie went to help. It wasn't until Lei Xiangyi came to invite Qin Mian and Lei Tie to eat the warm house meal, that Qin Mian was in a daze—the separation of the old house had been settled. The homestead that Lei Xiangyi bought was in the south of the village. On the three-room homestead, two adobe houses were built, half of which was used as a kitchen, half of which was the wing of Lei Xiangyi and Qian, and the other was used as a hall. A large pile of firewood was piled outside the house. After eating the conservatory meal and sending away other guests at home, Lei Xiangyiliu Qin Mian and Lei Tie sit for a while. After serving tea to Qin Mian and Lei Tie, Qian sat quietly and made small clothes. Qin Mian asked about charcoal burning, "I heard that you have already started to burn charcoal, but have you sold some?" Lei Xiangyi looked relaxed, "It started burning a month ago. The first batch of charcoal is 3,200. Duo catty. Because it is a good smokeless charcoal, I sold it at a high price of eight cents a catty. The first batch of charcoal was bought for more than 25 taels. Because the second brother cuts less firewood, I will give him more than 50 taels. My brother and my fourth brother each got ten taels each. This is all thanks to the eldest brother and sister-in-law for taking care of us. I won't say much if I'm grateful. In the future, as long as the eldest brother and sister-in-law can use me, just speak up! Yes, and I After discussing with the fourth brother, when the second batch of charcoal comes out, we will send five hundred catties to the eldest brother and sister-in-law." Qin Mian nodded, "Since the third and fourth brothers have this heart, I will accept it. However, Since the house is given to you, it is yours, and it has nothing to do with us. Fangzi's matter is over." Lei Xiangren's homestead was bought in the east of the village. It was the first one at the entrance of the village, and four houses were separated from the old house. The area of ​​the homestead is not small, Qin Mian estimates that the homestead alone will cost at least 15 taels of silver. The construction of Lei Xiangren's house started almost at the same time as Lei Xiangyi's, but his house was larger, more complex in structure, and slower. It would take four or five days to complete the construction, but the pattern can be seen. There is not only a front yard, but also a back yard. The gate of the front yard is very magnificent, very similar to the gates of the big families in town. There is an inverted house on each side of the gate. The middle of the main house is the main house. The two rooms on the left side of the main house are a kitchen and a side room; There are two wing rooms on the right. The main house has a small door leading to the backyard. The chicken house, pig house, hut, and vegetable plot are all in the backyard. The Zhao family has long been talking in the village. A small garden is to be made in the front yard, and everyone is invited to be guests. After the house is built, it is quite magnificent and one of the best in the village. The Zhao family really made a garden in the front yard, and ran to Youran Tianju to ask for flowers. Qin Mian was too lazy to deal with her, so he directly let a little white and brown bear guard at the door, Zhao clan left angrily, spent money to buy some flowers in the town, and asked Lei Xiangren to dig in the mountains. Lei dug flowers at the foot of the mountain in Renle Diandian area, but accidentally mistaken a snake for a stick and was bitten. Fortunately, the snake was not poisonous, but Lei Xiangren's legs were swollen and lay at home for several days. This incident became a joke circulating in Qingshan Village for several days. Less than half a month after the new house was aired, Lei Xiangren and Zhao couldn't wait to move in. Qin Mian and Lei Tie once passed by and looked at the whole house outside and came to a conclusion that Lei Xiangren's 100 taels of silver had already been spent at least 40 taels. However, this has nothing to do with them. After another two days, Lei Xiangzhi's academy was on holiday, and Lei Xiangren set the day of the warm house on this day. The reason why Qin Mian and Lei Tie used to keep in touch with the old house was only for Lei Xiangyi, Lei Xiangli, Lei Xiangzhi and Lei Chuntao. Now that Lei Xiangren has been separated, the relationship with Lei Tie is even further. Both Qin Mian and Lei Tie had no intention of having a deep friendship with Lei Xiangren. They went to town on the excuse of something and did not go to eat the warm house meal. They only asked Lei Qin Le to send a basket of sweet oranges. After returning from the town, Qin Mian heard Lei Qin Le say that Lei Xiangren and Zhao said some yin and yang after receiving the gift, to the effect that Qin Mian and Lei Tie are rich people, and the gift they gave was too shabby. Qin Mian and Lei Tie didn't care. Saying a few words with Lei Xiangren and Zhao, Qin Mian felt it was a waste of saliva. He dared to pack a ticket, with Lei Xiangren and Zhao's temperament, sooner or later, he would get into trouble. He had already thought about it, to gradually dilute the relationship between his family and Lei Xiangren's house, and to sever them as long as there is a chance in the future, so as not to be involved in the future. Lei Qin Le also said one thing: Lei Xiangren, Lei Xiangyi, and Lei Xiangli were involved in burning charcoal. It was mainly because Lei Xiangren was always lazy and chopped less wood, and he often burned charcoal. Don't help. Lei suggested to Zhi that they sell the charcoal-burning recipe and divide the money directly. The quality of the charcoal burnt with this recipe is very good. Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xiangli originally disagreed with the seller, but were later persuaded by Lei Xiangzhi that they planned to sell the recipe after burning another batch of charcoal. Qin Mian didn't inquire much about this matter. Fast forward to the twelfth lunar month, Lei gave Yi and Lei five hundred jin of charcoal to the leisurely land. The two took the initiative to raise the issue of selling charcoal recipes to Qin Mian and Lei Tie. The charcoal recipe sold a total of two hundred taels of silver. Lei Daqiang and Zhao believed that Fangzi was given by Qin Mian and Lei Tie before they separated, and it should be counted as public finance. Two hundred taels of silver were divided into five parts, Lei Daqiang, Lei Xiangren, Lei Xiangyi, Lei Xiangli and Lei Xiangzhi each forty taels. Lei Xiangzhi did not ask for the forty taels of silver, but insisted on giving Lei Xiangyi, Lei Xiangli and Lei Chuntao. Lei Chuntao Twelve Taels are used for dowry, Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xiangli each fifteen Taels. Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xiangli had no choice but to accept them, but they both secretly decided to wait until Lei Xiangzhi took part in the country test before giving it to him. In the twelfth lunar month, Qin Mian and Lei Tie transported canned yellow peaches and canned peaches made in summer to Shuangshilou. A canned food is priced at one or two silver and is sold in limited quantities every day. Those who want to buy it are squeezed out. The vegetables in the warm shed of Youran Tianju have also begun to mature. Red and bright tomatoes, green leeks and amaranth, emerald green peppers and bitter melon, fresh cucumbers, fat eggplants, huge winter melons... are thriving. There are few varieties of vegetables in winter, and no one can stand those kinds of dishes every day. When these summer vegetables appeared on the menu of Shuangshilou, the entire Zhaoyang County was a sensation. Even if a plate of stir-fried amaranth sells for a high price of 100 cents, Shuangshilou is still full every day, and even wealthy families in neighboring counties often go to Shuangshilou to eat. On this day, shopkeeper Sun is on holiday, and Qin Mian and Lei Tie are going to town to give him a substitute. They will send a basket of tomatoes, a basket of cucumbers and a basket of eggplants by the way. Lei Chuntao hurried over with a smile on her face, "Eldest brother, sister-in-law, fourth brother is going to make a kiss."
