Song Qiu also underestimated Mr. Lu's desire for Doubanjiang. He thought he would have to wait until tomorrow after getting the letter.
We just had lunch here and went out to buy an invitation. When we returned to the dessert shop, we were about to let everyone go back to the village when Mr. Lu came to the shop.
There were no customers in the shop, so it was quite quiet. Song Qiu invited Mr. Lu to sit down on a bench and talk.
Zou called Lu Yan and Zi Yi out to wait on Song Qiu. They served tea and then retreated behind Song Qiu to wait.
"I happened to be in town and had some free time. When I heard the shopkeeper Qi come back, I was going to go directly to Songshan Village. But the next person inquired that you were still in town and hadn't gone back, so I came over immediately."
Mr. Lu said: "Song Xiaodong still has Doubanjiang for sale? I wonder how much can be distributed?"
Song Qiu originally planned to sell the large vat and the two small vats of doubanjiang in exchange for some cash.
The three main customers of her Doubanjiang are Mr. Lu, Fang Jie and Xian Fulai. They can eat more, so this time she only plans to go to them.
Divided into buses and divided into buses, you can buy a lot of them for the whole family.
Immediately he said: "I'm not going to hide it from Mr. Lu, I calculated that the chili peppers will be red in three months, and then the doubanjiang can be made. I plated the remaining doubanjiang in my hand and estimated that the inn
It's enough, and it can come out evenly, so I immediately thought of you, Mr. Lu. I promised you that as long as there is more, I will stick with you first, right?"
Listening to this, Mr. Lu felt at ease regardless of whether she was lying or telling the truth. He kept nodding his head and waited for her to continue speaking.
"So now I can give you another eighty altars, Mr. Lu."
Master Lu was very happy when he heard that he had this number. He has three restaurants in total, and these eighty jars are enough to last until the chili peppers are red.
"That's great, then I'll send someone to pull the goods tomorrow!"
He also came prepared. As he said that, he settled the money first and would just buy the goods tomorrow. He was relieved.
Suddenly another thirty-two taels were received, and Song Qiu counted the money in his hand.
I had paid off the wages for building the house before, and I still had two hundred and twenty taels left on hand. The ten-day surplus from the inn was aside from everyone's monthly money, and I still had ten taels left.
I went to Yaxing this time and got out sixty-three taels, and now I got another thirty-two taels.
After coming and going, I still have two hundred taels left in my hand.
When the remaining doubanjiang is given to Xian Fulai and eighty jars, and to Fang Jiu for eighty jars, we can still earn another sixty-four taels.
In addition, I delivered the two thousand kilograms of vermicelli ordered for this month to Fangji Grocery Store, and I was able to earn another sixty taels.
The money in hand will become abundant.
With the money in hand, she felt more confident about her upcoming trip to Qingping Mansion.
I was delayed because I was talking to Mr. Lu. By the time I saw him off, it was too late. If I didn't hurry up, I wouldn't be able to get home before dark.
At this point, it happened to be the time when Wu Jin and his son were finishing work and going home. Song Qiu asked Aling to go and find them.
Aling ran fast, and the two of them hadn't caught anyone else when they left. After all, it's not every day that you can earn two dollars for a car.
It just so happened that there were two ox carts, and they wouldn't be crowded even if they pulled the green smoke.
Song Qiu did not take Ms. Zou away this time, and gave her one day to complete the handover of the shop with Yang Dalian, and then asked Du Chuanfu to pick her up tomorrow.
When I saw the outline of Songshan Village, it was already dark.
With so many people there, Song Qiu didn't bother to go back to organize things, so he simply asked everyone to get off at the inn, and asked Mrs. Wang to take Mrs. Lin and others to finish dinner by themselves, and then asked Du Chuanfu to lead them into the village.
Then he and Aling took Zhou Shitou's oxcart to go home.
It was getting dark, and she didn't say she wouldn't come back today. Her mother was definitely still looking at them.
Zhou Shitou has also been driving an ox cart by himself for more than half a year, and his skills have become more and more proficient. He is used to traveling on this road. Even if the road is dark, it will not affect his ability to drive steadily.
While driving, he still had time to hang out with Song Qiu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Aqiu, your ex-child came back from the county town? He was with Uncle Donggua. Did he see Lihua? What has she been doing lately? How is she?"
Song Qiu couldn't help laughing when she heard his nagging question to Lihua, "You're in town every day, why are you still asking me?"
Zhou Shitou scratched his head, "There's been a lot of cargo at the wharf recently, and I haven't seen a pear blossom in a long time when I'm rushing there every day."
"Lihua has now started making clothes by herself. She is busy every day, and I didn't even say a few words to her that day. But my family is hosting a greenhouse wine, and no matter what happens, she will come back and stay for two days. Then you can
Talk to her." Song Qiu said.
Zhou Shitou nodded, knowing that pear blossoms are good.
Song Qiu glanced at him and couldn't help but joke, "I heard that my Aunt Donggua has made an agreement with your mother to officially change the wedding date to next autumn. This will have to wait another year. Why are you worried? Are you anxious?"
Zhou Shitou didn't feel embarrassed in front of Song Qiu, "I'm anxious, but I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. We're already engaged, so I'm not afraid of my wife running away!"
"That's not necessarily the case." Song Qiu said deliberately.
When Zhou Shitou heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he almost lost his whip while driving. He said in a panic, "But what did Lihua tell you?"
Seeing how anxious he was, Song Qiu touched his nose and said with a smile: "I deliberately panicked you, what can Lihua say?"
Zhou Shitou breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still pounding. When he thought of something, he turned his head and looked back, then looked at Song Qiu and said, "Aqiu, when you grow up, your brain is better than ours. When it comes to business,
I can make more money than anyone else. Can you give me some ideas? What do you think I should do well? What should I do to make money?"
Song Qiu was puzzled, "Didn't you just say that there are so many goods at the dock recently that you can't even pull them over? What's wrong, you suddenly asked me this?"
"There is a lot of cargo at the dock these days. I can earn nearly a hundred cents every day, but it is not always abundant. This job of driving trucks and pulling cargo is stable, and I can make income every day, but all year round, the top
I only earn about ten taels of silver at this time, which I feel is far from enough."
Zhou Shitou said seriously: "I want to earn more money so that Lihua can live a good life in the future. I also want to do something else. I don't want to just drive goods in a sports car all my life."
"So I want you to help me figure it out."
Song Qiu could tell that Zhou Shitou was feeling a sense of crisis due to the current changes in the Lihua family. This was good.
She also hopes that Zhou Shitou can do something in his career so that Lihua can live happily in the future.
Just by pulling carts, you can earn more than a dozen taels of silver throughout the year. A dozen taels of silver sounds like a lot.
But to be honest, if you really think about it, it's not really a good life.
It is good for people to be content with the status quo, at least to achieve stability and tranquility.
But just knowing safety is not enough, after all, no one knows what will happen in the future.
What if something happens one day and you need a lot of money?
Zhou Shitou knows how to change and make progress, which is worthy of encouragement.
Song Qiu frowned and thought seriously.
But the road was only so far, and soon it reached the bottom of a gentle slope. For a while, she couldn't say anything, so she had to say: "Let me think about it carefully. When I figure it out, I will discuss it with you in detail."
speak."
Zhou Shitou didn't insist on getting the result now. He nodded, "Okay, I'll wait until you figure it out."
