The baby was fostered in the yamen, but Xiong Zhuangshan did not bring it back, and the follow-up matters were handled by the yamen, and it was inconvenient for him to intervene.
"New Year's Eve is only 20 days away." Tang Shouhe steamed a pot of walnut cakes with noodles, and those young gentlemen in Tokyo like to eat them very much. They were hungry at night, so they just got up to make a toothbrush.
"Mmm." Xiong Zhuangshan looked at Tang Shou with fixed eyes, with complex emotions in him, Tang Shou couldn't tell the difference for a while, but the look in his eyes made him flustered inexplicably.
He stabilized before saying: "Have all the livestock in our backyard been slaughtered?"
"I slaughtered it and raised it for a year. It is the best time to sell it at a good price, especially mutton, which is in short supply in Yulin Town. When spring comes, I will catch some lambs and piglets."
"You can keep the sheepskin, let's sew a sheepskin mattress for the bed, and it will be comfortable to lay."
"Can."
"Seeing that the end of the year is coming, we have to store some meat for ourselves. Anyway, our family is not short of the meat money. We will keep a sheep and a pig. If we have time, we can go to town and buy more beef. Is it okay? ?¡±
My own? Xiong Zhuangshan's heart was very ironed by these two words, like a stream gently wading through his heart, his hands that were sharpening the machete paused slightly, and immediately continued to sharpen it as if nothing had happened.
"Not enough to eat, keep two pigs."
Hey, I forgot that Big Clumsy Bear is a warrior who can eat five catties of beef. It seems that all the New Year's goods this year have to be increased.
Just in front of him, he can still distribute a batch of tooth incense and a batch of mille-soled cloth shoes. The hatchback can make a net profit of 400 taels, and after removing the principal of the next batch of 200 taels, they still have 200 taels to use. And after these little gentlemen in Tokyo left, he could still earn more than one hundred taels, and his capital was only twenty or thirty taels.
This year seems to be a good year. When the spring thaws in the coming year and the land is planted, the Yaxiang business at home can still continue, but cotton shoes should be used as cloth shoes, and the price will be lower. If there are many, then the price of the corresponding handwork must be reduced, otherwise he will not be able to get it.
"By the way, Erlang, when the spring planting is over, let's tear down the house and rebuild it."
Xiong Zhuangshan stopped sharpening his knife and said: "Our house was built the year I came back. It's only been five years and it's still new. It's a pity to tear it down. If you think it's not enough, we can take it over."
The saying that the houses in the village have not been built and demolished and rebuilt is simply prodigal. It¡¯s all broken and repaired, repaired and repaired. If there is a big happy event of marrying a daughter-in-law and adding children, at most it will be a new house connected to the back of the old house. The thing of overthrowing the heavy cover is what Tang Shou said to Xiong Zhuangshan. If it were someone else, he would be pressed to the ground by a man and beat him up. This is no longer a behavior that can be described as a prodigal.
"No, I plan to change my home into a B&B." B&Bs are very popular in later generations. "It means that our family will build a two-story small building by itself. It doesn't need to be too big. The whole small building is more than 400 square meters. The first floor A hall was built, similar to the front desk, to entertain guests, and at the same time conduct business, and also provide temporary rest for guests. The second floor is where we live, and customers are not allowed.¡±
It's not that there are no buildings on the second floor. Many shops in Yulin Town have two floors, and there are taller ones in Tokyo. However, small second floors are not popular in residential buildings. As for rural farmhouses, small second floors are not popular. The main problem is money.
But since Tang Shou proposed it, Xiong Zhuangshan did not outright veto it. On the contrary, he had silently calculated his family's savings in his heart, and considered whether Tang Shou's proposal was feasible, and he would satisfy it as far as the conditions allowed.
Who let him be his husband, he is his husband, he depends on him, satisfies him, this is just right and proper.
"The most important thing is that I once told you about warm walls and ground dragons. These two must be available. With them, we don't need earth kangs. Earth kangs are too weak. Burning kangs does not burn the house. Think about the house. If it¡¯s warm, people can¡¯t sleep on the kang, and it¡¯s too hot. But the kang is just hot enough, but the house can¡¯t heat up. So in fact, I don¡¯t like it very much. This year, there is no way. It¡¯s too cold, so I gave our family a kang Yes. There are conditions in the coming year, so I don¡¯t need these.¡±
With just these two sentences, Xiong Zhuangshan will be successful. "According to what you think, we can afford it. We have the land. If we only need to build a house and hire a craftsman, twenty taels is enough. For furniture, ten taels is enough. We can build it."
"No, this is where we live. We don't let outsiders live. I'm still building a villa. This villa is for the little ladies from Tokyo to live in. It's a luxury."
Seeing Xiong Zhuangshan's eyes full of doubts, Tang Shou said: "When I go to Ji Xiucai's house to borrow a pen and paper, I will draw it for you to see, and you can estimate how much money it will cost."
Considering the land that Tang Shouxin bought back in the backyard, it seems that his husband intends to use it to build a house.
 Cheng saw that he bought the land, and was afraid that he would not have the money to buy expensive spices.
"Don't worry, I've prepared enough for you." He was not polite, and took the deposit directly, and Jin Jincheng left with confidence.
At the same time, Yulin Town and neighboring towns also learned that Yaxiang and mille-soled cotton shoes have poured into Xiong's house to buy.
"Xiong Fulang, can this refreshment be cheaper?"
"Xiong Fulang, why are you running out of leather boots with laminated soles? Zhang Xiaosan bought them at home yesterday, why are they gone today? When will they be available? My shop is in a hurry to sell them!"
"Brother Xiong"
"Brother Xiong"
The Xiong family also ushered in a small peak of selling goods, and they were so busy every day that they never touched the ground.
The sheep and pigs in the family were finally slaughtered, and butcher shops in Yulin Town came to pull the meat one after another.
"Erlang, have we saved our own meat?"
"Keep it in place."
"Keep another pig, kill it and sell it to the villagers. The price we sell to the shop is the same as the price we sell to the villagers." Tang Shou said: "When we were in trouble, many villagers wanted to help, but in the end they didn't help. , but it¡¯s all in the heart.¡±
"OK."
The butcher shop sold it at thirty-five yuan a catty, but now the price has risen to thirty-eight yuan, and Xiong Zhuangshan sold them only twenty-five yuan, which was a difference of ten yuan in profit. There was no other way. After all, other butchers also had to make money, so it was impossible to buy it for nothing. The price was quite affordable, and only Xiong Zhuangshan could get it. Others couldn't. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
