    The 20 acres of reclaimed land in Shanbao had already set up a shed. Huang Shuhai went to the county, bought a whole truckload of oilcloth, and built the shed together with about 30 day laborers.

    On this day, Chu Rong and Huang Shuhai came to the county, found foreman Zhao who had built the house before, and asked him to gather craftsmen to build a circle of houses on the top of the hill.

    Chu Rong provided the blueprints, and foreman Zhao looked at the blueprints of houses in a semicircular shape with novelty, and said in surprise, "My wife, your blueprints are exquisite. Every house is about the same size, with one door and one window."

    "Uncle Zhao, this time we still use blue bricks, but it's built on the top of the mountain. I'm afraid the ox carts won't be able to get up there. We have to work hard for craftsmen to transport the blue bricks manually. The wages are an extra 30 yuan a day, just for lunch. You see  How is it?" Chu Rong asked with a smile.

    "It's a good relationship. I'm not afraid of your jokes. Those guys who finished building the house last time talked to me for several days. I must find another kind-hearted host like you." Foreman Zhao agreed with a smile on his face.  .

    After it was agreed to go there two days later, Chu Rong and Huang Shuhai drove the donkey cart and left Zhao's house.

    This time, Huang Shuhai suggested to build the house. Originally, Chu Rong was too busy to take care of the three acres of land. She was more relaxed when Huang Shuhai came back later.

    Now the land to be planted has become 20 acres, and soon there will be fish ponds to be dug, but the couple must be too busy, so they have the idea of ??hiring long-term workers to build a house.

    "We want to hire long-term workers, should we find suitable ones in the village, or directly hire people from outside?" On the donkey cart, Chu Rong caught a glimpse of a lot of middle-aged laborers squatting in the east corner of the city, and suddenly remembered that she also wanted to hire people.  asked hurriedly.

    Huang Shuhai thought for a while and said, "Go back and ask your godfather, he knows a lot."

    When Chu Rong heard this, she thought it made sense, and nodded immediately.

    As soon as the two entered the east of the city, Chu Rong saw a lot of people surrounded by a butcher's shop with keen eyes. They seemed to be buying meat, and she was curious and patted Huang Shuhai on the shoulder to make him stop.

    When the donkey cart came to a stop, Chu Rong got out of the cart. After walking over, she saw a woman in her forties squeezed out of the crowd with a smile on her face, holding a dark red  lean meat.

    Chu Rong's eyes lit up, and she rushed forward. The butcher shop owner was sharpening his knife, cutting meat for another woman.

    The whole stall was full of beef, and Chu Rong almost salivated when she saw it.

    This is beef. The laws of the Great Xia Dynasty expressly stipulate that common people and merchants are not allowed to slaughter cattle, horses, donkeys, mules and other agricultural livestock, especially cattle. Slaughtering cattle can be charged with killing people.

    So much so that it has been almost a year since she came here, and Chu Rong hasn't eaten beef once.

    Hearing from people around that the cow fell to death by accident, Chu Rong hurried forward and asked the boss for twenty catties in one go.  As soon as these words came out, the people around were shocked. Beef is rare, so the price is naturally more expensive, more than twice as expensive as pork.

    Twenty catties of beef is only four and a half taels of silver, not everyone can afford it.

    Seeing the big business coming, the butcher shop owner greeted Chu Rong with a smile, cut up the meat, paid the money, and kindly called his eldest son to deliver the meat to the donkey cart.

    Chu Rong got into the car excitedly, looked at Huang Shuhai and said, "I'm so lucky to have beef today. When I go back, I will eat it with big white radish. The taste is much better than braised pork."

    Seeing his daughter-in-law's smiling eyes narrowed into a line, Huang Shuhai couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth, thinking that this woman is really a child at heart, and she has a soft spot for delicious food.

    Huang Shuhai didn't know the term foodie, otherwise he would definitely use it on Chu Rong.

    As soon as the whip came down, the donkey let out a cry and started to move forward. Chu Rong stared at her little donkey for a long time, then said quietly, "Actually, I would rather eat donkey meat than beef."  'Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground' Chu Rong still remembers that when she was a child, there was a biker selling donkey meat in sauce on the street.

    The donkey was a little irritated by Chu Rong's scorching gaze. It was an animal's instinct, which made it aware of the danger, snorted and accelerated its hooves.

    With a black line on his forehead, Huang Shuhai stretched out his hand and patted the donkey's buttocks without a trace, which can be regarded as silent comfort.

    Passing by the spice shop, Chu Rong came down and sold several kinds of spices, such as star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon bark, etc. The original stew seasoning became spices here.  rise.

    However, Chu Rong, who has strict requirements on food, has to buy some at an expensive price.

    After finally buying all the stew ingredients, when the two returned home, after unloading the donkey cart, they cut up three catties of beef and added two largeCarrying the radish, she walked to Liu Guilan's house.

    As soon as he entered the door, he saw the eldest daughter-in-law Liu standing in the yard, angrily teaching the three sons a lesson, while the other two little girls shrank aside, lowering their heads to lower their sense of presence.

    "Sister-in-law, why did they provoke you?" Chu Rong raised her eyebrows in greeting.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
