Traveling through ancient times with golden fingers to farm and raise cubs

Chapter 25 Another winter

This is also a good thing, giving villagers the opportunity to increase their income.

So, this matter soon spread.

Yu Xiaoxiao's family receives hemp stalks sold to them by villagers every day. Fortunately, hemp stalks can be found everywhere, so they are not expensive, costing ten pounds to a penny.

It didn't look like much, but it couldn't hold up the hemp poles that were all over the mountains and plains, so Yu Xiaoxiao's family collected tens of thousands of kilograms of hemp poles in one spring, and most of the hemp poles in the surrounding mountains were cleared up by the villagers.

Throughout the spring, Yu Xiaoxiao buried himself in the hemp pile making twine.

I don't know if it was due to the increase in the four attributes, but Yu Xiaoxiao's hand speed was extremely fast. Tens of thousands of kilograms of hemp poles were completely turned into twine in half a month of summer.

During this period, both the eldest son Shen Ye's book copying business and the younger son Shen Qi's chicken raising business continued steadily.

The eggs were sold one after another, and the chickens grew up one after another. Shen Qi made a lot of money. He was happy every day, and he became more and more attentive to serving the chickens.

Chickens lay eggs and eggs lay hens. The more chickens you raise, the more chickens you raise. The chickens lay eggs much earlier and there are more eggs.

The eldest son, Shen Ye, took over the job of copying books from a bookstore, and the books he had to copy covered an increasingly wide range of topics.

As for whether the trees on the surrounding mountains would be cut down because of Yu Xiaoxiao's annual purchase of firewood, Yu Xiaoxiao had thought about it in advance and ran to tell the village chief.

Come on! I can do it!

In the three months of autumn, Yu Xiaoxiao seems to have more time. In addition to being able to weave four pieces of cloth per month, she can also leave about an hour to interact with neighbors, gossip, and chat about home affairs. Know the latest news from the whole village.

The arrival of summer has made Yu Xiaoxiao's family, who are working hard to make money, feel a little stuffy. However, the three of them still don't like to go out. The one is focused on raising chickens, the other is focusing on raising chickens, and the other is studying and copying books to make money.

The days are as ordinary as water, and they are lived step by step.

With her blood boiling with encouragement, Yu Xiaoxiao turned around and went back to the house, diving into the room and weaving crazily.

Winter is coming soon, and it’s time for Yu Xiaoxiao’s family to make a lot of money.

The writing speed is also a little faster, which allows Shen Ye to earn more money every month.

It seems that this is the life of ordinary people. There is no novel thing like the heroine of the novel every day, new friends every day, and different feelings every day...

Yu Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement and said nothing else. The village chief uncle said this and returned home. The matter was considered resolved.

A family of three would burn charcoal with three mud bags, which would be three times the speed. After the first snowfall in winter, Yu Xiaoxiao asked her neighbors to tell the villagers not to collect firewood.

Yu Xiaoxiao can now cut down trees with ease. She moves very smoothly. Not only does she cut down trees herself, but she also tells the villagers that she collects firewood.

The trees on the mountain are very easy to maintain. Just bury the seeds and don't need to worry about them, they will grow on their own.

After the family collected several thousand kilograms of firewood, Yu Xiaoxiao no longer took her children to chop down trees together.

During the three months of busy work in the summer, Yu Xiaoxiao only consumed one-fiftieth of the twine and weaved a total of 11 pieces of linen.

At the same time, Yu Xiaoxiao's family pushed two wooden carts of charcoal, saved eggs, live chickens, and pieces of linen to the town to sell money.

Many regular customers in the town had been waiting for a long time and stopped bargaining with Yu Xiaoxiao. They all bought the charcoal they needed this winter. Some of them saw that Yu Xiaoxiao also brought cloth and eggs and live chickens. They thought it was pretty good. Bought some.

Envying the families with enough land, Yu Xiaoxiao wiped her face and encouraged herself that as long as she worked hard enough, there would be fertile land, houses, and a salty life...

There are also those trees that have not grown up. When the time comes, we will also notify them and ask them not to cut them down.

The village chief thought seriously for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement. It took him a long time to speak: "That's the truth. This matter is indeed a problem, but it can be easily solved. Many of the trees on the mountain grow seeds. I

Then let the villagers collect more seeds without any trouble. Just dig a hole and bury some seeds in it.

This is considered a big money-making event for the whole village, and no one will take it seriously."

After selling these linen cloths, Yu Xiaoxiao has basically made back the cost of purchasing the hemp poles, and the linen cloth weaved in the future will be pure profit.

Yu Xiaoxiao picked at the calluses on her hands and felt very happy. At the same time, she secretly laughed at herself. She used to be such a humble person, but now she has become a model worker.

Entering autumn, Yu Xiaoxiao watched the people in the village busy and happily harvesting, and suddenly she wanted to buy some fields. Even if she didn't plant them and rent them out, she could still feed her family for half a year after paying taxes every year.

Thinking about her family's savings again, Yu Xiaoxiao was disappointed and disappointed. As expected, people are poor and have short ambitions.

Yu Xiaoxiao said this to the village chief at the time: "Uncle village chief, every year before winter and after the first month of winter, my family collects firewood to burn charcoal. This is a long-term job, but think about the surroundings.

There are so many trees on the mountain that I can’t bear to cut them down every year. If they are all cut down, this job will probably be useless, don’t you think so?”

Yu Xiaoxiao took the remaining cloth and sold it to a cloth shop, and Yu Xiaoxiao sent the eggs and live chickens to the largest restaurant in town.

But this is the second time. People in the village are somewhat used to it. When they hear the news, they no longer come to ask whether it is true or false. Instead, the whole family acts together to try to make more money.

The two sons were absolutely familiar with the work of making charcoal, so Yu Xiaoxiao arranged for each of them to take care of one while she built another mud bag in the yard to make charcoal.

The villagers also made a lot of money, but no one came to complain to Yu Xiaoxiao. If Yu Xiaoxiao didn't want to collect the firewood, he would keep it for his own use, and there would be no waste at all.

This was decided. Before the first batch of chickens grew up, Yu Xiaoxiao discovered that the eggs and live chickens sold at a stall could not be sold out at one time, so Yu Xiaoxiao thought of a way and planned to try it out at wealthy families and restaurants.

Let's try it and see if we can decide on a long-term supply channel.

When asking questions at wealthy families, Yu Xiaoxiao did not dare to go to the front door like the heroine in the novel did. Yu Xiaoxiao, who is timid and very stubborn, does not think that she has the so-called halo of the heroine, who can enlighten everyone and make herself wise.

Seems extremely different.

Yu Xiaoxiao was very self-aware and went to the back door of the wealthy family's house. She handed a coin to Xiao Si who opened the back door, and then she opened her chatterbox and started asking questions, getting the result she wanted.

It turns out that large families usually have their own Zhuangzi tenants, and the grains are delivered by Zhuangzi on a regular basis. They don't go out to buy anything at all. Except for the occasional banquet when a large amount of ingredients are needed, they will go out to buy some. Take a look.

Have you ever been lucky enough to come across some unusual ingredients?
