Nowadays, the quality of tea can be sold for one tael. When higher-end tea comes out in the future, one pound of tea can be sold for several taels, and even the top tea of precious categories can be sold for more.
When the people in the second room heard the news, they felt excited again.
Meng Li looked at Lu Mu: "Let's go to the county town tomorrow to promote our tea."
She went to the county town to obtain the qualification to sell. For insurance, other types of goods also had to be reported.
In ancient times, no matter what business you did, if you did it for a long time, you had to report it and pay taxes.
"Okay." Lu Mu agreed.
Although tea is a rare and precious product, you only need to obtain the corresponding sales qualifications. It is not as sensitive as salt.
Meng Ning said: "Since we have tea at home, why don't we all try it first? I haven't had tea since I was a child."
Meng Li smiled and said, "I was just thinking about having tea after dinner, but now my second brother is thinking about it, so I'll go get it right now."
She took out Dahongpao, which was only of medium and upper quality now, and top-quality tea would appear after level 20.
I also made a set of antique tea sets.
The water was boiled, the tea was brewed, and it was warmed. Everyone brought a cup.
The fragrance is mellow and rich, soft and sweet, and lingers between lips and teeth for a long time.
Everyone's eyes twinkled.
"I didn't expect that tea tastes so good. No wonder those teahouses are full of people." Meng Ning said with emotion.
"Second brother, the tea in ordinary teahouses is far less delicious than this one."
Meng Li also brought a drink to Meng Wu. Dahongpao can also protect the liver. The eldest brother suffered internal injuries, so drinking this is suitable.
Meng Wu, a rough man, couldn't help but sip the tea carefully and nodded: "It's really delicious. You won't forget it after one sip."
Lu Mu was silent after tasting it. The taste awakened some of his memories. Dahongpao was too fragrant. When he was a child, he often drank it as water. He couldn't sleep at night and was scolded by his mother.
One drink was not enough, so everyone drank two or three more. They were afraid that they would be full and not have enough stomach to eat at night, so they stopped.
I finally had a good time today and got over my tea addiction.
Meng Ning said: "I went to Uncle Zhao first and reported the size of the yard extension. Uncle Zhao was very happy and asked Liu Xiucai from the village to register it. I went to the town again and found the best craftsman. Team, they still have work on hand and can start work in five days.”
"There are thirty people in this work team. Such a large yard can be completed in three months. Their wages are based on the market. Then I went to the brick and tile factory and saw the blue bricks and glazed tiles. The total cost was one thousand taels. The first thing is money, and the rest is workers’ wages and food expenses.”
The second brother is very thoughtful and neat in handling things. This time he went out and did everything he needed to do, and he did it very quickly.
Meng Li was very satisfied: "Okay,"
"It's just." Meng Wu thought of a question: "Where will our family live while we build the house?"
Meng Li has already thought about it: "rent a yard in the town, and then move back when the new house is built."
"I'm going to the county town tomorrow. When I pass through the town, I'll ask someone to keep an eye on which yards are for rent."
Now that there is no shortage of money, it is very convenient to do whatever you want.
After dinner, Meng Li planned what the yard would look like on a drawing.
Not just a regular courtyard house, but also a large warehouse to house department stores.
I showed the planned plan to everyone, and they all said it looked good, and the anticipation for the completion of the new house was ignited in everyone's eyes.
The news that the second house was to be built soon spread throughout Xihe Village like a gust of wind.
Especially when they heard about the area, everyone in the village was surprised.
It would cost at least three to four hundred taels of silver. I didn't expect that the second house would be so rich in a blink of an eye.
Now everyone doesn’t know that the material used for the second room is blue bricks and glazed tiles.
"These bastards can build a house so quickly and build it so big. Isn't this just for us to build a big house with three bedrooms?" Mr. Meng couldn't even eat his food, so he dropped his chopsticks on the table. .
At this moment, Meng Hua and his wife, Meng Dawang's parents, came back from the town. They worked in the rice and grain shop in the town, rented a small house in the town, and came back only once in a while.
In the memories of Meng Hua and Li, when they came back a month ago, Meng Li was in a vegetative state lying on the bed, and the second room of the Meng family had nothing.
I saw Meng Li today. She was walking in high spirits and she was quite good-looking.
A stall was set up at the door of the second room of the Meng family. Many adults and children from other villages came to buy things, as well as from the town. Meng Yao counted the money until he became weak.
While eating, I heard that a large yard would be built for the second bedroom.
The couple also didn’t have much appetite.
"If someone wants to build a house, it's because they have the ability. How can you still hold them back from building it? Really, you're not going to eat at the expense of others."
Shen ate while talking, but the food still didn't taste very good in her mouth.
"Dad, Mom, if they build such a big house, will it occupy our homestead?" Mrs. Li said.
Others felt enlightened, yes, this homestead belongs to the Meng family. Have you discussed with them that the second house should be built so big?
"Eat, after dinner, go find your third uncle." Boss Meng picked up the bowls and chopsticks again.
Meng Hua turned around and looked for a moment: "Where's Dawang? Why don't you come to eat? You've already shouted a few times."
Shen said: "During the day, I went down to the river to catch fish, and went to the mountains to find fruits. I often skipped meals when I was full, but my health has always been good. I just let him go."
After Meng Dawang stopped eating, she put a little less rice in the pot every day, saving rations and feeling happy.
Mrs. Li was still a little worried, so she put down her bowls and chopsticks and went out. She saw Meng Dawang playing in the yard, very lively.
"Dawang, you really don't want to eat, aren't you hungry?"
"I won't eat, I'm not hungry, I'm so upset." Meng Dawang shouted dissatisfied.
I didn’t bring him any snacks when I came back, but fortunately he had money to buy them himself.
After the meal was finished, the first room went to find the third room. There was no time to clear the food on the third room’s table. There was still more than half of it left, and each one looked like a dish.
Seeing the people from the main room coming, Wan quickly blocked the dining table with her body and put away the leftover food.
"Third brother and sister, who are you looking down on? There is a big yard next door, and you are afraid that we will miss your leftovers." Shen said sarcastically.
Wan Shi smiled coquettishly: "No, I just want to collect the dishes."
"What can I do if someone wants to build a house? Let them build it. But from now on in our Meng family, the second bedroom will have the largest yard. People who don't know better think that the second bedroom is the boss."
These words made the person in the big room freeze up.
Boss Meng snorted: "The building is so big that it occupies our family's land. Doesn't it occupy yours?"
