Grandpa Shiba has a unique skill, which is making charcoal.
The charcoal made by Grandpa Shiba is absolutely easy to burn, has a long-lasting fire power, but does not emit smoke.
In ancient times, this was silver wire carbon, used by the royal family.
Hearing what Su He said, Grandpa Shiba was not particularly happy. Instead, he asked in confusion: "What do you want so much charcoal for?"
He definitely wanted to do this business, but Grandpa Shiba also had concerns. If Su He didn't want it later, wouldn't his efforts be in vain?
Su He knew Grandpa Shiba's concerns and said with a smile: "Grandpa Shiba, I know what you think. But how many times have you seen me keep my word?"
Grandpa Shiba thought the same thing. He Yaozi used to be very trustworthy when he was a child. He had never heard of anyone not fulfilling his promise.
Especially recently, when he opened a shoe factory, he never failed to keep his word.
That day, I just casually said that I could wholesale shoes for a few cents cheaper to the villagers.
Aunt Lele and several other people made a lot of money at Su Hena Shoe Factory.
Come to think of it, Su He would not be the one to break his promise.
Grandpa Shiba immediately said: "Okay, how much do you want? Give me the number. I have also started making charcoal recently. I have about two hundred kilograms at home."
Su He was overjoyed: "Then let's start with five hundred pounds per month."
He wasn't sure how much charcoal he would burn in a day, but then he thought about it, wasn't there an expert?
"By the way, Grandpa Shiba, if I want to cook Laotang all day long, how much charcoal will I need?"
Grandpa Shiba thought for a while, but did not answer, but asked: "Are you planning to make Lao Tang? That's right, those books are at your grandpa's house, you should have read them. By the way, Xiaojiu agrees with you to read those books?"
As he spoke, he slapped his head: "Look at me, Xiaojiu has taught you medical skills, how can I still disagree with you reading that book?"
When "Ye's Medical Classics" reached Uncle Jiu's generation, he was the owner of these books.
But for the time being, it will be kept by grandpa.
After thinking about it, Grandpa Shiba said: "That's it. Generally speaking, when making soup, one pound of charcoal can be burned for about forty minutes. Two pounds of charcoal can be burned for about an hour and a half. At the end of a day, it is about 36 pounds. It’s about.”
Well, Grandpa Shiba is pretty good at math, he figured it out so quickly.
Su He nodded: "Well, Grandpa Shiba, you have to burn a thousand kilograms of charcoal for me every month. Well, burn a little more, 1,500 kilograms a month. I will ask Wang Hang to discuss with you later. Yue Lai will take the charcoal back and settle the settlement with you. Don't worry, it will all be based on the market price."
He wanted to take care of the people in the village. Otherwise, there would be many people burning charcoal outside, so there would be no need to look for Grandpa Eighteen.
In fact, you can also use briquettes, but you need to build a stove to burn briquettes, and it is troublesome to replace them.
To burn charcoal, just use a large basin. Place it under the medicine cauldron and replace the charcoal easily.
It's just a bit troublesome to replace, not as convenient as a gas tank.
The gas tank can be used for about a day, and you can just replace it when the time comes.
Um?
Do I seem to have forgotten something?
Su He suddenly remembered that he went up the mountain yesterday and seemed to have collected three roe deer.
As a result, there was a fire and he forgot about it.
"I hope you're not starving. I gave you some vegetables and leaves before. Are you starving now?"
"Okay, Grandpa Eight, we have agreed. By the way, I will ask Wang Hang to pick up the charcoal later. I have something else to do right now that I need to deal with."
With that, Su He left and came out. Grandpa Eight still pointed at Su He, not knowing what to say.
"This bastard is so impatient. He didn't even take a look at this all the time. Do you believe in my craftsmanship so much?"
Grandma Shiba came over and said, "You only have this little skill, so the people in the village can still trust you. However, you have made an agreement with He Yaozi, how much can you ask for every month?"
If the quantity is small, it will not make any money and it will be laborious.
Grandpa Shiba smiled and said, "One thousand jins a month is enough."
"How many?" Grandma Shiba couldn't believe it. This amount was too much.
Grandpa Shiba explained to her: "He probably wants to make old soup and run a food business. Adding old soup does make it taste better. One thousand jins a month is too little. He wants 1,500 jins. Not too little.”
It's not just a lot, a pound of charcoal costs a few cents, but it costs 1,500 pounds if you can't hold it.
After all, I have an income of more than 100 yuan a month.
This income is definitely a lot.
Grandma Eighteen said: "It's a bit hard on you. It's not that easy to get more than a thousand kilograms of charcoal. Besides, this firewood needs a lot. At your age..."
Grandpa Shiba smiled and said: "With this money, of course I let a few children do it together. Let them do the wood cutting..."
"It's just a matter of dividing the money between a few brothers. Don't let them quarrel."
"It's okay, we are in charge of the money, and the brothers will pay them according to their wages. We will keep most of them ourselves. The boss is right. Only when we have money can we control these children. As for when we leave in the future Let them discuss this business with He Yaozi themselves. In addition, our money will depend on who is filial, and we will leave more for whoever is filial."
As he said this, Grandpa Eighteen glanced outside the window. There was a dark shadow over there.
At this time, it was gone.
Grandma eighteen patted her husband, but she also sighed when she thought of her daughters-in-law.
Hope this is useful.
Not long after, I heard someone's voice: "Mom and Dad, I've made a bowl of eggs at home, and I'll give you some to try..."
Grandpa Eighteen and Grandma Eighteen looked at each other and saw smiles in each other's eyes.
Look, doesn’t this work?
Su He didn't know that because of his arrival, Grandpa Shiba had a chance to take care of the daughters-in-law at home.
If you knew it, you would definitely admire it. This older generation is just different.
The older generation may not have read much, but their experience in life is no worse than his.
After decades of doing this, there will always be some wisdom.
At this time, Su He hurriedly arrived at a remote place and entered the portable warehouse. As expected, he saw three silly roe deer fainting from hunger there.
Fortunately, the silly roe deer was not aggressive and had a docile personality. For a while, he lay on the ground motionless.
"Before, the back mountain was still there, and I could hide in the secret base, but now I can't."
The secret base on the back mountain was also burned down by fire.
Only a little forest next to the village is still there, and the secret base is gone.
"It can be considered as saying goodbye to the old me."
Su He said, and quickly went to get some vegetable leaves. The three silly roe deer immediately got up and started eating deliciously, scrambling for the first place.
