Zhang Datian got up and started to work at dawn. He stirred the big sauce jars that were neatly placed in the backyard one by one, and opened them to dry. Then he went to wash his face and change his clothes!
His Qi brother Chen Yang also got up, went to the vegetable field in front to pick vegetables, mixed a cold dish and put it on the table! There are already three or four homemade pickled side dishes on the table, as well as chopped salted duck eggs!
Everyone in the family has already woken up one after another. These days, no one is sleeping late!
The steamed buns and rice porridge in the pot had boiled to a boil, and Chen Yang saw that people had almost cleaned up, so he started the pot and put the steamed buns on the table!
Zhang Er was the first to tidy up. He happily made a bowl full of porridge and sat down on the table, "Brother Chen, why did you eat steamed buns and rice porridge today? The family got rich?"
"Well, I've made a fortune! From now on, our family will be able to eat white rice and white noodles every day!" Chen Yang is obviously in a good mood, and he doesn't mind revealing some news to the boys at home!
"Really? That's great, can I eat eggs every day?" Zhang Er's heart was obviously not satisfied, so he raised the condition again!
"Okay!" Zhang Da came over and slapped Zhang Er on the back of the head, "As long as you have a stomach, even eggs are not enough for you to put a chicken between your teeth!"
"That's right, the second brother knows how to eat every day, and now he can't even count a hundred, what a shame!" Zhang Si said with disgust!
The five brothers of the Zhang family, Zhang Da 18, Zhang Er and Zhang San are twins. This year is 15, Zhang 40 years old, Zhang 57 years old! Zhang Da's Qi brother Chen Yang is seventeen this year!
In fact, it is a family with children as adults, and it is very lively and joyous every day!
"The soy sauce and vinegar money from the family last time has been settled, and a total of twenty-eight taels of silver has been settled!" Chen Yang glanced at Zhang Da, and announced the good news with a smile!
"Wow! There are so many, that's great!" Several people shouted in unison!
The Zhang family were sin slaves, and they were sent here by the servants of the government office to please Chen Chen. When they came, they only had ragged clothes and no shoes!
As soon as they came to the village, they were assigned to work everywhere! It took three years to do it. The big men in the family all had big stomachs. Although they earned a lot of food, there was not much left after filling their stomachs. After a few years, they only saved one or two How much money!
Chen Yang is a craftsman, so with this money, he went back to his old business and started making soy sauce and vinegar!
Vinegar is easy to say, a batch can be produced in a few months, but people don't have to be jealous every day!
The soy sauce needs to be dried well. The better the sun, the more fragrant the soy sauce will come out. This first batch of soy sauce is to be sold to the cafeteria. Chen Yangke put in a lot of effort and dried it for two years. After a few days, I showed the vat to the supervisor, and it was sold for a good price. With this good start, my soy sauce will definitely not be cheap in the future!
Because the soy sauce needs to be dried, the family didn't raise any livestock, and the two small vegetable plots in front of them couldn't be opened to eat in the past two years. Chen Yang was also worried. Well, what should I do!
Zhang Da is very generous. In his opinion, life in the village is heaven and earth compared to before. Making this soy sauce can improve the family's life a lot. If you can't be brothers, you can work hard and starve to death!
Fortunately, it was finally done. The person in charge said that the master was very satisfied with their soy sauce, and said that in the future, as long as they have the goods, they can sell them to the cafeteria, and they will charge as much as they want!
Therefore, in the past two days, Chen Yang worked hard and bought a lot of sauce jars. The piles in the backyard are full. This is the capital for their family to get rich in the future. There are four boys in the family. The pressure is not ordinary!
"Brother Chen, after that, Big Brother and you don't have to go to work in the village?" Zhang Wu blinked his eyes and promised, he was lonely in the family before!
"Your eldest brother is not leaving! The sauce jar at home is inseparable from people!" Chen Yang said with a smile, "I agreed to help the village make soy sauce, and we will count 20% of the profit when we ship it!"
"Really?" Zhang Er's limited brain capacity began to calculate frantically, Er Cheng profit? how much is that
"After Xiaowu, go to the school in the village to study! Together with your fourth brother!" Zhang Da said with a smile, "I don't ask you to learn any university knowledge, you must be able to read and count!"
"Understood, I will study hard!" The school is composed of shopkeepers and husbands selected by Chen Chen from the buyers. A child costs ten cents a month, and if he wants to pay, he can come here to attend classes. That ten cents Money is the wages of the gentlemen, this job is easy, and they are very attentive in doing it, and they study in a targeted manner. Now, the children in the village, among other things, are very good at arithmetic, fast and accurate, and they do it at home. People in small businesses bring their own children?Go out beside them, no one can fool them!
Chen Yang did some calculations. According to the situation in the village, the amount of soy sauce is absolutely indispensable. Calculated from his 20% profit, it will also be a considerable number! I have to sigh, Mr. Jia is really kind-hearted, he showed his skills, and he didn't go greedy. It stands to reason that a serf like himself is not the owner's family, but he has a good master, and a serf has lived. It's better than the average farmer's family. Now the children in the family can still go to school to study. It's no wonder that many people outside ask themselves to be slaves and want to live in the village!
"Brother Chen! Let's go to the cafeteria to exchange for chicken! I heard Er Gouzi say that there is roast chicken in the cafeteria today!" Zhang Si laughed at Zhang Er as soon as he opened his mouth!
"Second brother is a pig's brain, and he can't do without eating!"
"You have a good brain, so don't eat it!" Zhang Er raised his voice unconvinced!
"Okay!" Chen Yang agreed after thinking for a while, "I have agreed with Mrs. Wang's family. They are killing pigs today. I want five catties of pork ribs and five catties of meat. Originally, I would buy a chicken to stew with it, but instead Roast chicken is also good! The roast chicken made in the cafeteria is very fragrant!"
"There is also stewed meat!" Zhang Er screamed happily, and laughed silly!
The eyes of the little ones are also bright, and there is no way that they have not eaten meat seriously for almost a year, and they are so greedy!
After breakfast, Zhang Er and Zhang San went to the shed. The two of them were in charge of the wheat in a shed. The wheat was about to grow at the moment. Zhang San pinched a grain of wheat and saw that it was a little hard, at most twenty God, this batch of wheat can be harvested!
"Second brother! When the batch of wheat is harvested, let's buy some and go back to eat!" Zhang San said calmly!
"Okay! Didn't the person in charge say that we have the right to buy something so that we can buy two hundred catties of grain from our own shed cheaply?" Zhang Er said indifferently. At that price, even flour would not cost much. Although they have never eaten white noodles before!
"En! Go back and roll noodles for you!" The Zhang family is from the north and likes to eat noodles, especially Zhang San not only knows how to eat but also cooks. , Whoops, Zhang Er's saliva is about to flow out!
"Okay, then let's buy more! Use all the indicators that were useless before!" Zhang Er immediately booed!
"How can I eat so much, the family will be rich in the future, and we can eat new food every year!" Zhang San said with a smile, "Brother Chen is weak, and the steamed buns in the morning are very empty. I will make the pasta at home in the future. It¡¯s also convenient to go to the ground to eat in a few days!¡±
"En! Okay, when the time comes, you can make buns and I want pork and leeks!" Zhang Er immediately climbed along the pole!
"En!" Zhang San replied lightly! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
