Yang Ruoqing actually wants to say that things in this world are actually very mysterious.
There is nothing wrong with working hard.
But if you choose the wrong direction, then if you can endure hardship, you will be prepared for endless hardships ahead...
There is a saying that the timid will starve to death and the bold will die of starvation.
If you want to get rich and change your destiny, you must be willing to take risks.
"Boss Li, after you three brothers finish the autumn harvest, I can help you introduce a business."
Yang Ruoqing came over with a smile on her face, holding a can of freshly boiled hot water in her hand.
Place the hot water bottle on the ground and make sure it is stable.
Boss Li stood up immediately and said respectfully: "Sister Qing'er, if you have any errands that need our brothers, just ask us and we will definitely do it for you!"
"If you deliberately take care of us, then there is no need. We brothers have hands and feet. If you have white-flour steamed buns, we will eat white-flour steamed buns. If you have bran-flavored vegetables, we will eat bran-flavored vegetables. We eat according to our own ability!"
Yang Ruoqing stood up and wiped her hands on the apron around her waist.
"It's not like I'm deliberately taking care of you. I'll find other craftsmen to do it, and I'll have to spend money to do it. I'll ask you to do it, and I know the basics, so I'll give you priority."
Hearing what Yang Ruoqing said, Boss Li felt relieved.
"Sister Qing'er, if you trust our brothers and leave the matter to us, then we will definitely make a guarantee for you!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled.
Yang Huazhong next to him was happy for Mr. Li and others. If they were able to survive, they would be able to make money.
But Yang Huazhong is also curious, where will Qing'er renovate?
"It's the baby's camp." Yang Ruoqing saw Yang Huazhong's confusion and took the initiative to clear it up.
"We need to build a row of barracks behind the camp, probably about a dozen rooms, and build a small training ground."
"By the way, I heard that the dining hall and kitchen will also be expanded, so the list is quite big. It will take at least a few months to complete it."
"Brother Li, what do you think?"
Boss Li was just listening and thinking in his mind. When he heard Yang Ruoqing announce the construction date, Boss Li said: "The premise is that it doesn't rain. If it rains, it will have to be postponed."
"It's best to reserve two months, that will be the most generous!"
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "So I'll let you know about this in advance. When the grain comes into the warehouse in the fall, you three will make arrangements for it."
After the autumn harvest, it is already after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Leave another two months to build the barracks. By the time the work on the barracks is completed, it will be mid-to-late October.
The Chinese New Year is getting closer.
Years ago, I would go to Shiliba Village to pick up some random jobs to earn some income, and plant rapeseed, wheat, and the like. By the time of the Chinese New Year, I would have food to eat and money to buy new year's goods.
"Boss Li, I think you can propose marriage to the second brother this year." Yang Huazhong brought up the previous topic again.
"You can talk about two sisters-in-law, why bother talking about just one?"
"I look at the money your family makes this year. It's okay!"
When we were building a four-bedroom house, the wages of the three brothers were calculated together. After deducting the food expenses, the pure money they got was four taels of silver!
This time the Luo family will build a kitchen, which will last for five to seven days, excluding food expenses, and the labor price will be two taels of silver per flat.
Just by putting these two jobs together, I have six taels of silver on hand, and I can definitely marry Mr. Li a wife first.
And this doesn’t even count the work in the campground in the second half of the year!
Li Laoer heard Yang Huazhong's suggestion and got an appointment from Yang Ruoqing, and suddenly he felt more confident.
He looked through the kitchen window at his second brother who was struggling to swing a hammer in the flying dust inside, and he also had thoughts.
How about we discuss it with my two brothers when we finish work for today?
…
Next door, four rooms.
Mrs. Liu ran home in one breath, as if she was chasing a dog behind her.
He'er was feeding the chickens in the yard. When she saw Mrs. Liu's agitated look, she tilted her head, freed up a hand to draw a half circle around her ear, and pointed at Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu understood He'er's gesture. She was asking Mrs. Liu what was wrong, why did she run like this?
Mrs. Liu opened her mouth and said: "Then the three brothers of the Li family are at your third uncle's place..."
Halfway through her words, Mrs. Liu suddenly realized something and quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth.
Afraid that the cover was not tight enough and some words would slip through the gaps between her fingers, she covered it with her other hand.
The more she behaves like this, the more surprised He'er becomes.
Because she clearly heard the words three brothers of the Li family and third uncle's family.
He'er subconsciously raised her head and looked in the direction of the next door, thoughtfully.
When Mrs. Liu saw this, she got angry for no reason. She went up and patted He'er's arm and urged her: "Hurry up and feed the chickens. After feeding the chickens, go to the backyard to plant vegetables. How old are you? What do you want to do with what you have and don't have? Order a variety of vegetables." , go back to pick it up and sell it in Wa Market, it’s all money!”
…
Anyway, this time, Liu is determined to be the one who beats the mandarin ducks!
The eldest daughter is absolutely not allowed to marry into a poor family. Not only will the daughter endure hardships, but she will also be a drag on her parents' family.
Mr. Liu never wants that again!
So this afternoon, Mrs. Liu was like a supervisor, following closely behind He'er, lest she run out to find Li Laoer while he wasn't paying attention.
Fortunately, the afternoon passed calmly.
However, no matter how prepared Liu was, he could not withstand the turning of the gears of fate.
Because there are some things that can directly bypass her defenses and airborne over.
For example, that night, after the three Li brothers returned home from work, Boss Li called his two younger brothers over and first shared with them the good news that they would have jobs in the second half of the year.
The three brothers were very excited, as if they saw a steady stream of living money flowing into their pockets.
Boss Li then took out the money the three brothers had saved in the past two years after paying off their debts.
"...It's all here. Not counting the wages for the Luo family's kitchen, our family now has a total of seven taels of silver on hand!"
Li Laoer and Li Laosan's eyes lit up when they looked at the belongings in their brother's hands.
Li Laoer swallowed hard in excitement and sat there with his back straighter than before.
And Li Laosan was even more excited and pounded the table and said: "It's great, it's great. Our family has finally saved a fortune. With these seven taels of silver in hand, in the next one or two years, our three brothers will be able to eat and dress." You don’t have to worry about money when you want to see a doctor or buy medicine!”
Li Laoer nodded vigorously, "This money can buy two acres of second-class farmland. We can also buy a few piglets!"
Regardless of whether it is adding land or buying piglets or chickens, one is breeding and the other is planting, they are all manifestations of expanding the family business.
Households, fields, poultry and livestock, these are the foundation on which they live and the confidence they have to survive in the world.
However, Boss Li pulled out six taels from the seven taels of silver on the table.
"Our family is not in a hurry to buy land or buy piglets or anything like that,"
"Let's take out six taels and marry the second brother a housewife first!"
"Let's keep the remaining one tael of silver for a banquet!"
