In fact, Su Yu had heard about what happened to Mrs. Liu's ducks, so she didn't believe that people in the village didn't know. It was not only Mrs. Liu's family who did this, but her family was the most egregious. The duck was reduced by half. Su Yu was not used to it, so he simply operated on Mrs. Liu's house today and let the villagers take a good look. Her Su family was not So easy to fool. However, in Su Yu's opinion, just to sell a few more pennies was not worth it at all.
"Girl Su is right, Mrs. Liu, this matter is settled."
As soon as the village chief opened his mouth, the matter was settled.
"Village Chief, this is unfair. Why can't my family support you?"
"You don't know where those ducks have gone. Do you have to make a fuss and pay the Su family money to feel comfortable?"
Seeing that Mrs. Liu was still making trouble, the village chief approached and whispered a warning. If he and Yu Laosan hadn't been cousins, he wouldn't have bothered to take care of Mrs. Liu's troubles. He would have dumped the contract written by the Su family at that time and made Mrs. Liu lose money. thing.
When she heard that she had to pay for the money, Mrs. Liu stopped talking. But she was unwilling to accept the duck seedlings on credit from the Su family. Her family had lost a lot of income in a year. At this time, she really hated Su Yu. If it weren't for this damn girl from the Su family, maybe this matter would have been smoothed over. . In her opinion, the two members of the Su family were both honest and obedient, and their son was incapable of being beaten with three sticks. How come they gave birth to such a sharp-tongued girl who was born to defeat her.
Su Yu smiled even more happily despite Mrs. Liu's sinister gaze. She liked the way people hated her to the core but couldn't do anything about her. It felt good to see them.
Those standing in the yard felt relieved when they saw what happened to Mrs. Liu, but a few of them had evasive eyes and looked guilty, and Su Yu saw them all. But she doesn't plan to pursue it this time. She believes that with Mrs. Liu's example in the past, this kind of thing won't happen next time.
Mr. Lingling, after the Su family has settled all the villagers' money and the villagers have left, the last ones left will be Shopkeeper Niu and the Su family.
There are a total of 5,740 ducks in this batch, weighing 23,900 kilograms. Shopkeeper Niu brought 250 taels here today, excluding the more than 120 taels for the villagers and the change. Shopkeeper Niu's eleven taels, the Su family made more than one hundred and ten taels this time.
Shopkeeper Niu smiled happily.
"Brother Su, if you keep doing this, you can earn a fortune in just a few years."
"Brother Niu is joking, and my family can earn some hard-earned money."
After knowing each other for a long time, Su Lao Er also changed from shopkeeper Niu at the beginning to brother Niu.
Shopkeeper Niu knew that the Su family's work was indeed hard. He didn't know how the Su family's ducklings were hatched earlier. When he went to Fucheng to see the process of two women hatching ducks, he was impressed by the Su family's work. Not everyone can do it. The survival rate of the ducks hatched by the two wives is not as high as that of the Su family. It is considered good if half of the 10,000 duck eggs can be hatched. The first batch of 5,000 eggs hatched, only more than 1,000 eggs were hatched. For this reason, the manager It was a big deal. When they met people in Fucheng, Shopkeeper Niu was almost unrecognizable, and the two of them had lost a lot of weight.
However, shopkeeper Niu is also happy that the Su family makes money. The more the Su family makes, the more he takes from it. The boss is never stingy with capable people.
"We in Taihe Building are in dire need of ducks. This year has passed. Should your family start hatching eggs? Otherwise, in two months, we will be out of stock again."
"Sure, I'll start hatching them in a few days."
After getting the answer he wanted, Shopkeeper Niu left with satisfaction.
This time, we were not worried about duck eggs. This batch of ducks had been laid by ducks half a month ago. The Su family released the eggs for two cents each, so the villagers sold the duck eggs to the Su family. In just half a month, the Su family collected three eggs. There are more than 10,000 duck eggs. For this reason, when collecting ducks, some villagers asked if they could delay selling them for a few months, hoping to earn more money from selling duck eggs.
The collection of ducks came to an end, and the father and daughter went to town again. The previous buyer failed, and Su Yu was not in the mood to go to town after what happened, so the servants of the Su family have not bought yet. Today is fourteen, and tomorrow will be fifteen. It seems that the shop that was planned to be opened on the fifteenth will not be able to open, so we have to wait. After the person buys it, he will have to train for a few days.
It was also Xingyuan Yaxing. As soon as the father and daughter entered, Huang Quan greeted them.
"You two are here today, do you plan to buy something?"
"My family plans to buy a few servants. Come here to see if there are any suitable ones. However, my family is in the village. Those who are arrogant and want to be young masters and ladies should not be introduced to me. If they go to my house, they won't be able to stay. It's best Find someone who is honest, down-to-earth and willing to work, but also has a bright mind."
Huang Quan was taken aback. This request was really unusual, but this was the kind of business they were doing, so it was normal for customers to have requests.
The two were taken to a small courtyard and served refreshments.
"You two sit down and have some tea first. I'll go and bring you here."
Seeing that the person was gone, Su Laoer leaned into Su Yu's ear and whispered: "Daughter, shouldn't we just buy one?"
"Dad, there are so many jobs in our family, do you think buying one is enough? There are more and more jobs in our family, and we as a family are not exhausted from doing them. It is better to buy a few more, which is worse than hiring someone from the village. . Mom, don’t worry. I’ll buy it when the time comes, and she won’t let me return it.”
"Okay then, just decide."
In a few words, Su Yu defeated his father.
In a short time, Huang Quan brought more than 20 people into the courtyard. Su Yu didn't say at that time that he wanted boys and girls, so the people he brought were both boys and girls. The women stood in two rows in front, and the men stood in two rows in the back. There were four rows in total, six in each row.
"These are all bought and trained by our dental shop not long ago. The rules are not bad at all. Let's see if there are any suitable ones."
Whenever this kind of situation occurs, Su Laoer just pretends to be the best, and Su Yu is the one who takes the lead.
Su Yu stood up and looked at the people in their twenties in front of her. She immediately excluded the teenage girls and boys.
"Let me make it clear to you first. My family lives in the village and has quite a lot of land. This time the people I bought are going back to work. You must think clearly. If you can't bear the hardships in the countryside, you can stand up now. "
A group of people stood with low eyebrows and no one said a word. Su Yu nodded secretly. He had indeed been trained and learned the rules well.
Then look at them one by one from the first row, and wait until you finish the last one.
"You, you, and the rest of you, go and stand over there."
The person named by Su Yu was neither happy nor unhappy, and stood aside obediently. Su Yu ignored those people who were ordered out and looked at the remaining people in front of him, including three women and five men.
"Tell me, what did you do before and what do you know? Let's start with you."
"Looking back to the girl, I used to live in the countryside, but was sold by my master. I can do all the work in the fields and on the stove."
"Girl, the old slave used to work on the village. Because something happened to the previous owner's family, the village couldn't have so many servants, so the old slave was sold."
"As a girl,..."
Su Yu had been patiently listening to the introductions of several people, and quickly picked out what she wanted.
"I want that woman and the two men at the back. How much can you give me?"
Huang Quan had to admire the little girl in front of him. He knew the details of these people very well. Su Yu picked out three of them who were practical and willing to work. How did he do it?
But this was not the time for him to think about it.
"Miss Su has really good taste. The three of them were carefully trained by our dental shop. The woman used to work in Zhuangzi and is very agile. Our dental shop charges twelve taels, and the man works for a handful of taels." The good one asks for twenty taels. The other one who is literate also asks for twenty taels."
"So expensive!"
Su Laoer, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard Huang Quan's words.
"Mr. Su doesn't know something. Now is not a lean year. Every household is living a good life. There are fewer people selling their sons and daughters. Our dental shop is not doing well either."
"Three people, forty taels of silver."
"Miss Su, your counteroffer is too harsh. Forty taels is really not enough. How about fifty taels of silver, can you take these three people away?"
"In my opinion, these three people are worth forty taels. Just tell me whether you are willing to sell them?"
"Forty taels is really not enough."
"If that's the case, then there's nothing to talk about. Dad, let's go."
"Why."
Su Laoer agreed and immediately stood up and followed his daughter. Seeing that the two of them really didn't intend to buy it, Huang Quan suddenly became anxious.
"Forty-five taels, you take all three of them away."
Su Yu turned around.
"Forty taels, if you don't agree, while it's still early, my father and I will go to Fucheng to have a look. There are three dental shops in Fucheng, and there are a lot of people buying and selling people. Maybe there will be a better one."
"I'm afraid of you, forty taels is just forty taels."
"make a deal."
Su Yu was of a straightforward nature, so when the person agreed, he took out forty taels of silver, took the three persons' deeds of sale, and left.
Huang Quan couldn't be happy with the forty taels of silver in his hand. He didn't make any profit at all from this business, but thinking about how he had made several taels when the two of them bought a shop before, he finally felt a lot better.
