No, Xie Yanzhi called him before they found a good place.
"I'm free, I'm free. I don't know what you want from me, Shao An."
Xie Yanzhi took another redrawn drawing in his hand and raised it.
"Third uncle, Yuan Niang wants to build a greenhouse in her cousin's village. As you know, I have to prepare for next year's meeting and have no time. Junzi and Zhengzi are not here, so you are the only one who knows better about our family. I want your help with these."
Li Sanhai knew that Xie Yanzhi knew how to prepare the secret medicine that made vegetables grow faster, and he also knew that Li Yuan and the others wanted to build a greenhouse to grow vegetables for sale.
He was not jealous of this, and he did not dare to expect to follow the trend and make money, so he thought about setting up a stall with his wife.
Now that he heard Xie Yanzhi's words, he just regarded himself as an elder, helping them when they were in need.
"Okay, if you want me to help you, just ask!"
Xie Yanzhi handed him the drawing: "Third Uncle, I need your help now to go to the village and keep an eye on it. In addition, Yuan Niang discussed with me that you know better about the work in the fields. When the time comes, Third Uncle, you can help with the planting. Do you think that’s okay with me sharing 10% of the income from our land?”
Xie Yanzhi knew how much stuff Li Yuan had stored in his space, and he also knew how much money he had made from it last year.
So he didn't think there was anything wrong with giving Li Sanhai 10% of his income.
This is because the person in front of him is not his third uncle. He is not paid a share, but directly hired by Yue Yin.
Thinking about it, he added: "Uncle San, Yuan Niang and Can Niang made hundreds of taels in Liuyun County last year by just doing small business. Do you think this is the capital, and the greenhouse is not only built by our family, but also There is also Zhuangzi. It has a large building and high output. The price of vegetables in the capital must be higher than that in Liuyun County. After one winter day, I estimate that it will cost at least one or two thousand taels. 10% is one or two hundred taels."
Li Sanhai held the drawings and when he heard one or two hundred taels, his hands shook subconsciously and he looked at Xie Yanzhi in disbelief.
"Shao, Shao An, this, this is too much!"
It's really cold in the capital. It's only the fourth day of October, but the north wind is blowing loudly, and now it's even starting to get dark.
The sun was shining in the morning, so the clothes they wore to go out felt too thin now. Wearing it on the body, when the north wind blows, it will make you feel cold.
Whether his wife can make money by setting up a stall is another matter, but she will definitely suffer from the cold!
And at his age, if he goes out to work, even if someone wants him, Yueyin may not be much higher.
At the end of one winter, it was probably a big deal to have five taels of silver.
At the moment, the one or two hundred taels Shao An said was too much for him.
So much so that he felt that his wife and daughter-in-law didn’t need to set up a stall, and they could just help grow vegetables together.
When the weather warms up next spring and Yuan Niang and the others don't have to plant vegetables, they will have more money on hand and will be able to better understand what they should do.
If that doesn't work, just rent a house in a village on the outskirts, then grow vegetables, raise chickens, and grow some watermelons and sweet potatoes.
After a year like this, they will definitely be able to save a lot.
Thinking about this, Li Sanhai felt hot inside, and even more understood that the niece-in-law in front of him was helping their family.
Xie Yanzhi listened to what he said, and his eyes were filled with gratitude. He could tell what he was thinking after just a few turns of his mind.
He immediately replied: "It's not much. Anyway, I'll give you 10%. It will be whatever it is when the time comes. Third uncle, this is what Yuanniang and I have agreed upon. What do you think?"
Li Sanhai held the drawing tightly and nodded repeatedly, without even asking his wife, and immediately made the decision: "Don't worry, Shao An, the third uncle will take care of the greenhouse for you. Also, your third aunt and third brother and sister will also come with you." To help.”
As he spoke, he said excitedly: "Do we also need to build a greenhouse in our courtyard? Shaoan, don't worry, just leave the work here to your third aunt. Later we will live in the Zhuangzi, and we will live there every day." Ask your third aunt to come over and help take care of it. We are all family members, and we will definitely not say anything that shouldn’t be said."
Xie Yanzhi knew that Mr. Ma had always wanted to set up a stall for business, so he asked: "Then the third aunt and the others won't set up a noodle stall?"
Li Sanhai shook his head: "No, it's too cold in the capital. To set up a stall to make breakfast, you have to get up very early, and you have to touch cold water for the first time. I'm afraid your third aunt won't be able to bear it. In addition, your three younger siblings are quite young. , I want to wait for Zhengzi to come over so that they can conceive the child as soon as possible."
When Xie Yanzhi heard this, he knew that Sanfang was worried about his son, so he said nothing more.
However, after Li Sanhai got over his excitement, he lowered his head and spread out the drawings.
After he finished reading, he asked with doubt in his eyes: "Why does this greenhouse look like Junzi's house?"
"Yes, it is based on the painting of Junzi's house in Lijia'ao, including the fire kang. It's just that the roof is wrapped with sparse roof tiles and oilcloth, so that when it's sunny, the oilcloth can be lifted up to let the sun shine through. The sparse roof tiles can be illuminated into the greenhouse. But in this way, you alone can't build such a large greenhouse..."
Li Sanhai listened to Xie Yanzhi's description and knew that the greenhouse must be very big, so those kangs would probably be kept burning day and night.
He really can't do it alone, he needs someone to replace him.
Thinking about it, he said: "I heard that the winter in the capital is relatively long and extremely cold. Otherwise, Junzi and Zhengzi will work together when the time comes."
Xie Yanzhi thought that he had to be busy with the next examination, and had no time to take care of Li Jun and Li Zheng. He could just let them work on this first.
"Okay, wait for them to come and ask them what they want. If they are willing, then let's do this for now. If not, don't force it, just ask Yuan Niang to buy a few dead servants to do farm work. Wait for the next year The imperial examination is over and I have some free time to think about their future."
Li Sanhai felt warm in his heart when he saw that he was still worried about Zhengzi and Junzi at this time.
She even thought that Yuan Niang was able to remarry him as a divorced woman because she burned high incense in her previous life!
Li Yuan didn't know what her third uncle was thinking about her. Busy time always passed quickly.
It has entered the winter month in a blink of an eye.
During this period, Zhou Caijing was there, and Zhuangzi's large greenhouse had been built.
Even the vegetables were grown with the efforts of Li Yuan and her two daughters, as well as Uncle Li and Li Sanhai's family.
At the moment, all the servants at Zhuangzi have been sent away by Zhou Caijing, and Li Sanhai and his family are taking care of the greenhouse.
As for the Xie family, Li Yuan's mother and daughter and Uncle Li's grandparents took turns coming.
Every five days, Li Yuan would mix the water soaked in mung beans with Lingquan water and tell Li Sanhai's family that this was a secret medicine that should be diluted with water before watering the vegetables.
Due to the color and smell issues, Li Sanhai's family of three never had any doubts.
Seeing that the greenhouse vegetables were growing at an extremely fast rate, they thought it was because of the use of secret medicine.
When Li Jun, his wife and Li Zheng arrived in the capital, the vegetables in the greenhouse were ready for sale.
On this day, Zhou Caijing happened to bring someone to inspect the vegetables.
