The work in the field was basically finished, and the rest was watered and weeded on time, and Tanggenshu grabbed it. When the field was being prepared, Wang Shijing dug a canal to lead down the mountain spring on the west mountain. Whether it was a mountain or a dry field, watering was convenient, and there was no need to fetch water. The new house was under the supervision of Uncle Zhou and Father Wang. It changes every day. In a twinkling of an eye, it is the end of October, and in at most half a month, the new house will be capped. Wang Shijing went to the new house every day to see if there were any changes that needed to be changed.

When the house was all built, Wang Shijing went to Lizheng to buy the mountain that was closest to his house in Xishan. It was rumored that the Sun family made chrysanthemum tea. After a while, Sun's chrysanthemum tea and Zhao's jam became a clan business. Yizhang Xuan was waiting for the red dates and hawthorn sauce from Lizheng’s family in winter. Yongningtang made a lot of money from Sun’s chrysanthemum tea. Unfortunately, the last crop of wild chrysanthemums has bloomed, and the chrysanthemum tea is facing out of stock. Yongningtang Don't worry too much about the shopkeeper Feng.

Sun's chrysanthemum tea was also sold by Shao Yunan. In the final settlement, in addition to the other 100 taels paid to Shao Yunan, he also settled more than 120 taels of interest. Patriarch Sun and Lizheng each put 60 taels of silver into their own community. They will buy a few acres of clan land in the spring of next year. In the future, the production of the clan and the profits from chrysanthemum tea and jam will also be used by some of the children of the clan to study. , and reward children who read well. The news came out in waves, and the whole village exploded again. The clansmen of the Sun and Zhao clans were so happy that the clansmen with children went to Wang Shijing's house to thank them. If Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan were not so generous, their children would not know when they would be able to study!

Tang Gensheng, who was in the first batch of funded list, was brought by his brother Tang Genshu and kowtowed three times to Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan as soon as he entered the door. The two brothers already knew from Lizheng that Wang Shijing had specially mentioned it, and Lizheng was willing to give it to him. Tang Gensheng has an opportunity. Tang Genshu now earns enough money every month to pay for Tang Gensheng's classes. When Tang Gensheng can go to a private school, and with the support of Zhao and Sun's family, Tang Genshu can fully afford his younger brother's repairs, which are all brought by Wang Shijing's family. Their.

People of the two ethnic groups who were not able to participate in the business were naturally unhappy, but who told them that their character was not good enough. There are patriarchs, patriarchs, and most of the clansmen on top of them, and they can't be happy, but their children can also get support from the clan's cultivators to go to private schools, and they are not completely excluded. If the trouble is not good, not only will you have no money to take it, but you will have to pay all the repairs yourself. Of course, this support is not without time limit, and the specific details are not for Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing to worry about.

The Sun family and the Zhao family are happy, but the Wang family is extremely depressed. Why Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan would rather sell the recipe to the Zhao family and the Sun family than to their own family is clear. If nothing else, Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan would not agree with the old lady Wang's family, let alone Wang Dafu's family doing such a thing. This time, the Wang family was completely implicated by the old lady Wang and Wang Dafu's family. Now, there are not a few people who scold the two families openly and secretly, and some people are dissatisfied with Wang Wen and the patriarch. If the patriarch did not do a good job, the Wang family and Wang Dafu's family could not be suppressed, and the Wang family could just look at the Zhao family. Eating meat with the Sun clan, they can't even drink soup?

Wang Wenhe's heart was depressed, Wang Shuping had nothing to do, and he was also sad, but he couldn't go to Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan, and the scolded old lady was still angry. That is her own son, there is a way to make money, not to give her such a mother, but to give it all to outsiders. But Mrs. Wang couldn't come to the house to make trouble, and Wang Zhisong didn't allow her to go. After thinking about it, Mrs. Wang still introduced Wang Dali and Wang Chunxiu. Wang Chunxiu was unwilling, but Mrs. Wang said that if she could get the recipe, she would be afraid of not much dowry in the future? Wang Chunxiu was moved again.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Wang's calculations were doomed to fail. As soon as Wang Dali and Wang Chunxiu stepped into the gate of Wang Shijing's house, Shao Yunan said, "Wang Chunxiu, are you really planning to seduce me?"

Wang Chunxiu groaned, covered her eyelids, turned her head and ran away, Wang Dali's face instantly flushed red, whether she was angry or ashamed. Shao Yunan arrogantly drove Wang Shijing back to the house and asked Wang Dali directly, "What are you doing?"

Without Wang Chunxiu by his side, Wang Dali hesitated for a long time and couldn't say a single fart. Shao Yunan showed a sarcastic smile: "My father, if there is a wedding, funeral, or marriage in the family, you should come, and our family will give you the courtesy. If there is nothing else, don't come to the door. It is written in the deed. To be clear, my mother-in-law and you also have fingerprints. If you are illiterate, you can ask Wang Zhisong to read to you later. This person can't talk like a fart. Home has nothing to do with it. It's up to you whether you live well or not. You said that you have nothing important to do, why do you always come to my house with your daughter? Those who don't know think you want me to reconcile with Brother Jing and marry you. The girl."

Wang Dali was too embarrassed to speak this time, he turned around and left unsteadily. Shao Yunan closed the door coldly, turned around and fell into a generous embrace.

"Don't talk nonsense. When people hear it, they think you want to divorce me and marry a woman."

"Pfft!" Shao Yunan raised his head from the man's tight embrace, "Brother Jing, I didn't expect you to be so open. I've been like you, do you still think I can be like a woman again?"

Wang Shijing's one-eyed sparkle.

"Or is it that Brother Jing doesn't mind marrying a woman as his wife in the future?"

"Don't talk nonsense! I'm just your daughter-in-law!"

Wang Shijing was angry, he bent over to carry Shao Yunan and walked into the room, and slapped him gently on the buttocks. Wang Qing and Wang Ni wisely hid in the house not to disturb the two daddy's intimacy.

The two of them soon became disheveled in the room, and they were not ashamed at all to be promiscuous in the daytime. They were passionately excited when someone knocked on the door: "Is this the home of Wang Shijing's brothers?"

"Looking for you."

Shao Yunan pushed Wang Shijing, who was breathing heavily, on Wang Shijing's eyelids with impatience: "Who is it!" He lifted his pants reluctantly.

"Excuse me, is this the home of Wang Shijing's brothers?" The other party slapped the door twice.

Wang Qing came out of the room: "Dad, someone is looking for you."

"Come on now, go and open the door."

Wang Qing ran over to open the courtyard door, and saw an unfamiliar uncle standing outside. He was definitely not from the village, not to mention that there was a carriage behind him!

The visitor looked at Wang Qing affectionately: "Xiaowa, does Wang Shijing belong to this family?" He heard Xiaowa call his father.

Wang Qing nodded, but did not let anyone in: "My father is busy, I will come out later."

"I'm the shopkeeper Xu of Yizhangxuan. I'm here to talk to your father and your little father. Are they all at home?"

"Well, it's all there." Wang Qing turned around, expecting his father and little father to come out quickly.

The closed door opened, and Wang Shijing came out first. As soon as he saw him, Manager Xu's eyes lit up: "Brother Ishii." This jumped directly from "Brother Wang" to "Brother Ishii".

"Manager Xu."

Wang Qing stepped aside, and Shopkeeper Xu strode out.

"Brother Qing, go make a cup of chrysanthemum tea."

Wang Qing ran into the kitchen to make tea. Wang Shijing took shopkeeper Xu into the house of Wang Qing and Wang Ni, and said, "Nizi, call Uncle Xu."

"Hello Uncle Xu."

Wang Ni was no longer as timid as before. She called someone. She wisely put away her and her brother's books on the table. Wang Shijing put away the pen and ink and said, "Yunan will be here in a while." Not to mention what happened to Shao Yunan.

Shopkeeper Xu didn't ask any further questions. He looked around the simple house and asked with a smile, "I heard that Brother Ishii and Brother Shao are building a new house. When will they move in?"

"It is estimated that it will be the end of November. Shopkeeper Xu will sit."

Shopkeeper Xu got on the kang, crossed his legs, and took a few more glances at the chic tea set placed above the mahogany box on the kang head.

Wang Qing came in with two bowls of chrysanthemum tea on the tray. Wang Shijing asked Wang Qing to call someone, took the tea bowl, and put one down in front of Shopkeeper Xu. Wang Qing went out and closed the door.

Shopkeeper Xu picked up the white porcelain tea bowl, took a sip, put down the tea bowl and said, "The Yong Ning Tang on this chrysanthemum tea set is selling well, but the taste of the Ishii brothers' house is even better."

Wang Shijing said generously: "Yun An likes to ponder these things, and he makes the chrysanthemum tea at home himself."

At this time, someone pushed the door and came in. It was Shao Yunan, who was neatly dressed and used spiritual spring water to remove the redness and swelling of his lips. When he came in, he said embarrassedly, "Let the shopkeeper Xu wait for a long time."

"Not long ago." Shopkeeper Xu's smile deepened, "Brother Shao, I have something to call."

"Ha. You are so busy, you won't go to my Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do."

Shopkeeper Xu was stunned for a while before laughing: "Brother Shao will always say something amazing."

Shao Yunan got up on the kang and asked, "What's wrong with Shopkeeper Xu?"

Shopkeeper Xu put away his smile and pointed to the tea bowl in front of him: "Xu is here for this chrysanthemum tea."

"Ah? What happened to the chrysanthemum tea?" Shao Yun was confused. Of course, he was also a little puzzled by the intention of the shopkeeper Xu.

Manager Xu said straight to the point: "Then Yongningtang is not my owner's shop. Now the chrysanthemum tea of ​​Yongningtang has been sold to Chinan Prefecture. It is hard to get a pound. My owner is very anxious. I know this chrysanthemum tea is also from Xiaoge Shao. Hand, if it is not convenient for my boss to come to the capital, he will definitely come to see Brother Shao in person, and he must ask Brother Shao for help."

Shao Yunan was immediately embarrassed: "Manager Xu, this chrysanthemum tea is really not what I didn't expect from you. Whether it's jam or chrysanthemum tea, the reason why I sell it is that my family is really too small to be busy; the second is for my family. If I can settle down in the village as soon as possible, you also know the situation of my family. My family is unreliable. Brother Jing and I can only help Uncle Lizheng and Patriarch Sun. After I sold this recipe for chrysanthemum tea to Patriarch Sun, the family has already I've found Yongningtang. Grandpa Sun has a good relationship with the shopkeeper of Yongningtang, and there has always been a relationship between the two sides of medicinal materials.

Manager Xu said, "I know that the Sun family and the owner of Yongningtang have a relationship, but I don't know if the deed between the Sun family and Yongningtang states that this chrysanthemum tea can only be sold with Yongningtang?"

Shao Yunan shook his head: "I've never asked this before. How about I ask Brother Jing to call Clan Chief Sun over and tell him face-to-face? If it doesn't work, let's think of a way. It's really inconvenient for me to intervene in this matter."

Shopkeeper Xu immediately said, "Then I will trouble Brother Ishii."

Wang Shijing went to find the patriarch Sun, and the shopkeeper Xu asked: "Brother Shao, the Zhao family has received red dates and hawthorns but has not made them. Are you dissatisfied with the purchase price of Yizhangxuan? Just say whatever you want."

Shao Yunan said with a smile: "Manager Xu is overly concerned. The red dates will taste sweeter and tastier after drying, and the hawthorns can be stored for a longer time. This farming has just ended, and Uncle Lizheng's family can just take a breath. If you sell jam, you must hope that the price will be high, right?"

"nature."

"Is there any fresh fruit to eat during the Chinese New Year?"

"Of course not."

"These red dates are warm and nourishing. It's freezing in the cold weather. A cup of red date water will naturally warm the heart. If you add some ginger, it will also warm the palace for women. Hawthorn is sweet and sour, what's good in winter? As for dessert, this hawthorn jam can not only be eaten alone, but also can be made into sweet soup. Shopkeeper Xu waits a little longer, and then throws out this gimmick. The price will be more than double that of goat milk jam and peach jam. If you sell it now, shopkeeper Xu will earn less, and Uncle Lizheng and the others will also earn less, what is rare is more expensive, isn't it?"

Manager Xu's eyes became brighter the more he listened, and he slapped the table: "Brother Shao, Brother Shao, it's a big loss for you not to do business."

Shao Yunan said with a smile: "I don't want to do business, won't Shopkeeper Xu reduce a competitor? I have such a friendship with Shopkeeper Xu, it's a pity to be a rival, I'm good at guarding my hills and ground. ."

"Brother Shao is modest and humble." Shopkeeper Xu laughed, and he knew more about Shao Yunan in his heart. It seemed that he still thought of this person simply.

Shao Yunan restrained his smile and said, "My little brother also has something I want to tell Shopkeeper Xu. My brother Jing has two relatives, both of whom are very nice people. This is the end of the busy schedule, and they also want to do a small business. Earn some money. I would like to ask if they can set up a small stall at the door of Yizhangxuan to make some rare snacks, so as to rub the light of Yizhangxuan's customers."

Shopkeeper Xu asked, "What kind of snack is it?"

"Manager Xu must have never eaten it before. When it's done, I'll have them send it to Yizhangxuan."

"That's good. Whether it's rare or not, Xiaoge Shao, if you are willing to speak, you can trust me Xu, and you don't need to set up a stall at the door, just put it in my zhangxuan, and pay a little rent every month, no more than one tael of silver. ."

Shao Yunan smiled and said, "We'll talk about the rent later. Shopkeeper Xu might as well take a look at the snacks first. If he thinks it's good, the two sides can cooperate. Brother Jing's two relatives belong to the Wang family, if he didn't miss them. If I can do this business by myself, I don't have to bother Manager Xu anymore. Manager Xu will stay at my house for dinner at noon, and I will cook a few special dishes. If you think the taste is good, I will give you the recipe, or you can give a Zhang Xuan adds a dish."

Shopkeeper Xu was overjoyed: "Brother Shao, Brother Shao, if I don't come today, I won't be able to do your job. If it's really good, I don't want you to send this recipe, I'll buy it."

Shao Yunan waved his hand indifferently: "If I think of a way to make money, I will die of exhaustion. This life will no longer be interesting. I like to make money, but I have to learn to enjoy life. People can't do it. Slave of money, I won’t sell a few recipes for money, I will give you as a friend, and you will keep it. If I have trouble with you in the future, will it be possible that you will still collect money from me? "

"Haha, Shao Xiaoge is righteous! If you don't become a slave to money, Shao Xiaoge can say such things." Manager Xu was very happy, and he didn't care whether the chrysanthemum tea thing could be settled or not. The son must be worth a lot of money. He didn't come here in vain, and the shopkeeper Xu became more determined to make a good relationship with Shao Yunan. He himself appreciated Shao Yunan even more, and he was bound to inform the big boss about it.
