After dinner, Mrs. Wang rushed to wash the dishes and tidy up the stove. Only then did Song Qiu gather the crowd and make a formal introduction.
"My surname is Song, this is my grandma, this is Aling, and this is my little sister Lihua who lives next door. Our family is simple, as you can see, this is the land. Of course, I didn't buy you here.
, First of all, before we enter the village, houses are being built by the long river. Did you also see it?
That's the inn I'm going to open soon. By then, you'll be working there for only two days. In these two days, you just need to get familiar with it and help with some chores.
As for accommodation, Aunt Wang will stay in the same house with me first, and Uncle Du and Dalian will go to the Changhe River in the evening. There is a place where people can stay temporarily, and you can help guard the place at night."
Song Qiu didn't say much, and arranged the people after a brief introduction.
When Du Chuanfu and the three of them heard this, they realized that this was the case.
The house that I saw before entering the village was under construction and was about to be completed. It looked unique. It turned out that it was going to be an inn.
Knowing what they were going to do, the three of them felt at ease and hurriedly stood up to answer the question, expressing their understanding.
Song Qiu gave Lao Yuan a detailed explanation of the situation of these three people.
Old Yuan was really not used to having a servant in her family, but she thought her granddaughter had an idea, and since the inn was open and there were no staff, it would be too busy. After hearing that Du Chuanfu and Yang Dalian were both good at boxing and kicking, it made sense.
My granddaughter’s thoughts.
There is no man in the family who can take care of things, so there is no other choice but to add a servant like this. When the time comes, it will be easier for them to control them.
I also heard that the Wang family had lost a man and was sold out by her husband's family, which made me feel sad.
But after a while, she got used to it. Three people were added to the family, and there were so many people. She just treated them like Al-Ling, and she didn't really look at them.
In the afternoon, Song Qiu took Du Chuanfu and Yang Dalian to the Changhe River.
After introducing the person, I told Liu Caigui that starting from tonight, the two of them would be staying and guarding here, so I wouldn't bother Liu Caigui and his son. They have been here every night these days.
Liu Caigui saw that Song Qiu had bought a wife. The two seemed to be honest, so he didn't say much. It would be nice to have some free time at night. He hadn't gone home to sleep for more than ten days, and he didn't want his wife.
Well.
At this pace, we won't be able to work for more than two days.
Early the next morning, Song Qiu went to town again. Yang Dalian drove the car, and Du Chuanfu also followed.
Old Yuan looked at it and felt a lot more relieved.
In fact, things usually don't happen in Panshi Town in Taiping. The Jiang brothers last time were of course an exception.
But now they can't afford to cause trouble.
I heard that Jiang Dabao was completely disabled, and the doctors in town said he could only be paralyzed.
The Hu family disliked the two paralyzed men in Dafang, so they simply found an excuse to divide them into homes, evict Dafang from the old house, and let them find their own land to live.
Mrs. Xiao never expected that her always gentle sister-in-law would have such an attitude, and she immediately started making trouble. Unfortunately, she couldn't make trouble with Mrs. Hu at all.
She went to the village chief to seek justice, but it turned out that the village chief had already disliked her, so how could he sincerely help her?
However, after all the scenes, in the end, Mrs. Hu, with her paralyzed son and man, had no choice but to exit the Jiang family's old house in despair.
This is why evil is punished.
When Song Qiu and Lao Yuan heard about this, they were not sympathetic at all.
That's all deserved.
Song Qiu went to town today with the intention of slowly buying things for the inn.
I was busy with chili peppers in the past days and couldn't take care of it. Now I have some free time. Of course I have to buy what needs to be purchased. Once the inn is completed, I will find a day to open it.
When she went to the village chief's grandfather's house yesterday to tell the village chief's grandfather about the land deed, she also asked the village chief's grandfather to help her watch the day.
His family has an old almanac, and the village chief's grandfather would have read these.
The pottery kiln near the town entrance to the south of the town produces a lot of ceramics every day. If you go to pick them up yourself, the price is cheaper than buying them in a shop in the town. After all, this is a craft.
Song Qiu had gone to buy a large vat twice, and he felt familiar with it. He also specifically looked at the plates and bowls last time, so this time, he naturally went there.
Tao Kiln was the same steward as last time, and he still remembered Song Qiu. Seeing that she was here to take care of the business again, and still wanted to buy dishes and dishes, he couldn't get away, so he specially asked a young steward to follow him to entertain Song Qiu.
There is a special room for the dishes that no one has ordered to be cooked for sale. The shelves are neatly arranged in categories for people to pick and look at, which is very convenient.
They are all ordinary porcelain, mainly for practical use, and don't talk about flower arrangements.
For those who cook, it depends on what kind of food the thing is suitable for.
Song Qiu looked around the room and quickly made up his mind.
There are forty small blue and white bowls, twenty ordinary-sized plates of the same color, ten slightly larger plates with deeper mouths, and large blue and white pottery bowls with mouth diameters slightly smaller than those of buckets.
Five, in addition, there are also five ordinary large pottery bowls that are pure white with a bit of gray.
Even if the inn is full at one time, these bowls and plates are enough. Buying too many is a waste.
The steward followed Song Qiu's lead, and while writing down the items, he asked the boy to help him pack them carefully in a basket covered with thick straw to avoid being bumped.
After Song Qiu finished counting, he also settled the accounts.
They are all purchase prices, and there is no second-hand level. The total of all these is only 350 yuan.
When Song Qiu heard the price, he felt that it was indeed a bargain. After paying the bill, he asked Du Chuanfu and the others to carry the packed baskets onto the mule cart, then got on the mule cart and went back to town.
I went to Zhangji Grocery Store again and bought two trays, two kitchen knives, two cutting boards, two large iron pots, and a wooden rice steamer.
She planned to come back for rice and noodles later, and went to Cloth Shop after leaving Zhangji Grocery Store.
It was the same shop that her grandma had brought her to last time, Wangji Cloth Shop. The products sold were sold by ordinary people and the prices were affordable.
Song Qiu looked around and pulled out two kinds of cloth, one was ordinary cheesecloth, only made of woolen blue, and the other was fine cotton, made of cyan and pink.
A lot of both were pulled out, and a corresponding amount of white cloth was also pulled out.
I estimate that there are enough to make a lot of bedding, so I'll just do these for now, and then I'll come back to the rest when I get them done.
Then he weighed the cotton. Sixty cents per kilogram of cotton was unambiguous, and it was also the cheapest price. Song Qiu thought it wouldn't look like it was mixed with catkins, so he directly weighed it according to the amount of six kilograms of cotton per quilt.
We weighed a hundred kilograms of cotton, which cost us six taels of silver.
Fortunately, ordinary coarse cloth was only eight cents a foot, while fine cotton was more expensive, fifteen cents a foot. The cloth comforted her, and she thought six taels would be six taels. Who said cotton was so expensive?
For such a big deal, the landlady was extremely happy and generous. She gave her a small change without saying a word, and also gave her a large bag of rags and a lot of silk thread.
Song Qiu saw that the rag was quite large and could be mended to make pillows, so he happily said thank you.
