The next morning, Xinyuan restaurant sent eight carriages to Lingjia village to pull jam. It was spectacular. Even if a country family could have a cow cart, even if they were rich, they didn't want to think about it, let alone eight at a time. When a series of carriages drove into Lingjia village, the whole village was agitated. Many people put down their work and followed the carriage all the way Later, when they saw the carriage stop at Ling Jingxuan's house by a passable country road, they were shocked and puzzled. They couldn't understand what was going on.
"Ha ha?? Brother Ling, your speed is really fast. It's only a few days to make 2500 kg. We don't have to worry about selling them. You don't know. I wanted to keep all the last 100 cans and sell them in Datong town. Who knows that the shopkeeper of the branch store in the town has been waiting in the restaurant for a long time. I'm surprised to take half of them and leave. I'll save the remaining 50 cans. This is almost the bottom line The 2500 catties are just in time. "
Shopkeeper Zhang, who came to pick up the goods himself, could not help complaining to Ling Jingxuan when the guys were carrying the jam. In fact, if 50 cans of jam were sold in Datong Town, it would not be a problem to sell them for ten days. After all, the amount of each smoothie added was not too much, and Datong town was not so big. The reason why he could not stand the sale was mainly because of the magistrate Hu of Qingyang County, The Hu county magistrate and his family are all northerners. Although they have been in Datong town for five years, they still can't adapt to the hot summer. They all suffer from the bitter summer. After eating the ancient version of milkshakes, Hu county magistrate becomes addicted to it. He has to eat several servings every day. This man follows the trend. The county magistrate loves things that he can't explain. Other people naturally want to try them, and then?? The cold food was sold out of control, and the main raw material jam was in short supply.
"In order to catch up with this batch of goods, I have employed a lot of people. But this time, there are only large jars and small jars of hardcover jam. I want to take a custom-made one. I'll make as many as others want, and book three days in advance. How does manager Zhang feel?" Ling Jingxuan certainly doesn't know or care about the things in the town. As long as the jam he makes can be sold, the rest has nothing to do with him.
"It's a good feeling, but you'd better make a few hundred cans and let me distribute them to other branches to try to sell them, so as to sell more in the future."
Shopkeeper Zhang is also a shrewd one. It is clear that it is more cost-effective for them to calculate according to the catty. Too much jam in small jars will do harm to them without any benefit. If the situation is scheduled, there will be no problem of hoarding.
"Of course. In fact, I've customized 200 small jars, which will be delivered to you next time we deliver them."
"OK, you've thought of everything. It's comfortable to do business with you, brother Ling. This is a 2500 Liang silver bill. We'd better settle the account once every ten days, and you can count the points."
With that, shopkeeper Zhang took out the silver ticket and handed it to him. Ling Jingxuan took it with a smile and glanced at it lightly. In fact, there was nothing good about it. There were only two pieces of one thousand taels and one of five hundred taels.
"Brother Zhang, do you know if there is a better private school in this town? As you can see, it's almost time to send their children to enlightenment. Now that we have made a little money, I want to send them to study in the town. Can elder brother Zhang recommend one or two? "
After collecting the banknotes, Ling Jingxuan picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for them respectively. He slowly stated his purpose. It was urgent to build a house. It was the same for children to read books. In ancient times, children were generally enlightened at the age of five. He did not ask for a quick step, nor could he let two small steamed stuffed buns lose on the starting line.
"There are some good private schools, but brother Ling, I have seen your children. They are really smart and cute. If they are sent to the private school, they will be delayed. It's better to hire a famous teacher. It costs tens of Liang a year, which is not expensive compared with the future of children."
Shopkeeper Zhang touches his chin and looks at the steamed bun beside Ling Jinghan. He is familiar with Ling Jingxuan, and he will suggest that. If he is an ordinary person, he is not willing to work hard.
"Dad?"
Hearing that it costs tens of liang of silver every year, Ling Wen is determined and anxious, and is embarrassed to attack in front of outsiders. He can only hold back his anger and stare at his father. It is enough for him to buy a carriage for reading. How can he spend dozens of Liang to invite a gentleman to come home. He is reading, not eating money. Should he dare to read with ease?
"Hehe --"
seeing this, Ling Jingxuan couldn't help laughing. After giving Ling Wen a soothing look, he continued: "please, sir, we don't dare to be so extravagant in the countryside. Moreover, I don't ask the children to achieve much in the future. As long as they are unyielding to others and not being deceived and bullied, private schools are enough."
It is easy for him to say that he is unyielding to others. Shopkeeper Zhang and Ling Jinghan both raised eyebrows in surprise and seriously doubted whether he was wrong. Even if he was going to confer Marquises and pay homage to each other in the future, he would have to give up his son as emperor? However, Yan Shengrui, who was recuperating in the next room, got up the corner of his lips after hearing his words, and did not yield to others? It's really what Jingxuan of his family can say.
"Dad, you are wrong. I will be an official in the future." It seems that he forgot to spend money. Ling Wen says that his father spends so much money to send him to study. He wants to earn a senior official for his father."Ha ha?? Well said, that's it. "
Hearing the speech, Zhang shopkeeper laughed and touched his head. Ling Jingxuan said helplessly with a smile: "let elder brother Zhang laugh. The child is afraid of poverty and always wants to be a senior official."
Helpless to return to helpless, Ling Jingxuan is also happy, the son has ambition is a good thing, but, afraid he gives himself too much pressure.
"It doesn't matter, brother Ling. If you mean to let the children learn and don't want to put pressure on them, I can recommend him to you. His talent can be said to be the first in Datong town. No, maybe the whole Qingyang County can't find anyone who can match him. But I don't know whether he has any merit or fame. Besides, he is a low-key person He likes to make friends with people. If he had not offended Wang Juren unintentionally when he first arrived in Datong Town, and was forced to fight against him by Wang Ju people, I would not have known that he was so talented and gorgeous. "
Shopkeeper Zhang waved his hand, and his face suddenly changed. He also heard what Ling Jingxuan said before he thought of such a person. At the beginning, the fight was very confidential, and most people could not know about it. He also knew it because the venue was in Xinyuan restaurant.
"Oh? Is there such a man? " Ling Jingxuan can't help but pick eyebrows, and even Ling Jinghan on one side can't help but cast a surprised look.
"Well, his name is Chuci. He's about 20 years old. He opened a book shop in the town, and he has a 9-year-old son. He came to Datong town about two years ago. He is a bit cold and informal. But there is no doubt about his talent. I have a little friendship with him. By the way, he also likes to eat the cool food you made. If you have that meaning, I can give you some guidance See you. "
"I'll trouble you, brother."
Ling Jingxuan is not a pedantic person. Although the Chuci seems a little too young, it is enough to enlighten two little buns. Besides, it is impossible for a person with a bad mind to be indifferent and low-key. In addition, it is recommended by shopkeeper Zhang that Ling Jingxuan decide the teacher of xiaobaozi almost instantly.
"No problem. When you are free, you can take the children to the restaurant to find me."
Shopkeeper Zhang is also a cheerful person. He patted his chest, and Ling Jingxuan nodded with a smile: "there is another thing. I heard that there is a Liu guarantor in the town. Do you know elder brother Zhang?"
"There is such a person. What do you want to do with the guarantor? Buy land? "
The farmer must have bought the land first when he made money.
"Ha ha Almost. The children are going to study in the town. I want to buy them a carriage or something, and a cow by the way. As you can see, my house is likely to collapse when the wind blows. So I want to buy all the homesteads of dozens of acres before and after, and prepare to build some bright green brick houses. "
In the past, he didn't have much money, so he didn't dare to plan too much. Now that he wants to build a house, he has to plan it all at once. In fact, he wants to build a large manor with three yards and an inverted ear room. By the way, he also plans fish ponds and orchards. Of course, the main house must be built first if he doesn't live in the early stage In the future, you can take your time to buy the land and spend more money on green bricks to build the courtyard wall.
"Well, that's good. The homestead is not expensive either. Lao Liu's reputation is good and his work is reliable. When you buy the land, I'll introduce you to some engineering teams specialized in building houses for the big families in the town. They do a good job and charge a fair price."
Manager Zhang nodded. Indeed, their house should be changed.
"Ha ha That's the best. I'm worried that I can't find someone to build a house. I'm afraid I can't find anyone to work with money in Lingjia village. "
With that, Ling Jingxuan couldn't help making fun of himself. He couldn't find anyone to work, but he didn't want to find people in lingjiacun. He didn't want to spend money and let people keep talking. Isn't it intentional to block himself?
"Hum, those people just ignore it. There will be regrets in the future, brother Ling. It's too late. I should go back almost. When do you want to build a house, go straight to the restaurant and find me."
He snorted scornfully. Seeing that the guys were waiting in the yard, shopkeeper Zhang stood up. After a while, the restaurant should be busy. He had to go back to work.
"Yes, I'll go to town later. I'm going to trouble my brother about the children."
Ling Jingxuan walks around and says that Ling Jinghan and Ling Jingpeng, who has finished moving things, are also following them with a smile. Two small buns are leaning on Ling Chenglong's side. At this moment, Ling's house is full of villagers watching the excitement. When they see the three brothers of Ling Jingxuan come out surrounded by shopkeeper Zhang, their eyes widen one by one, and they all look like they can't believe it Even though the rumors about Ling Jingxuan have been spreading one after another in the past half a month, many people still don't want to believe that the stupid person who let them bully him has completely changed his face.
"Poverty and backwardness are not terrible. Ignorance kills people. Brother Ling, those people are snobbish. When you are successful in the future, they may not be able to flatter you."
Before getting on the bus, manager Zhang couldn't help comforting him. During this period of time, he also learned a lot about Ling Jingxuan. From the bottom of his heart, he pleaded for him. In the history of a man having a son, it was not strange. In his opinion, it was not strange, but a blessing. How could other people not have a child?"Ha ha Thank you, brother. I've been used to it for so many years. "
Ling Jingxuan doesn't feel funny. Does he seem to care about those rumors?
"Well, I'll go first."
"Take your time, brother!"
After seeing them off, the three brothers looked at each other with a smile. Without looking at the villagers around them, they turned around and went into the yard. What did others think? How could they say it was none of their business? Just leave them alone.
It has also reached the ears of the Ling family. Some people disdain it, some people sigh low, and others make all kinds of calculations. However, no matter what their reaction is, it is impossible to realize it in the end. If they think that Ling Jinghan and others who are separated from the Ling family are still so easy to handle, it would be a big mistake.
"Dad, are you and uncle going to town?"
After a busy morning, he had time to eat. He blinked his eyes and looked at him eagerly, as if to say, "I'm going to go, I'm going to go too?"??
"Well, dad is going to buy a carriage and a cow, and he will bring people back to measure the land. We are going to build a house. Don't go to the town today. I'll take you back after you have arranged the house. You heard that just now. Uncle Zhang introduced you to a good gentleman."
Taking the porridge that Yan Shengrui served for him, Ling Jingxuan said as he reached out to pamper his head.
"Oh
Smell speech, know today son can't follow, small steamed stuffed bun depressed poke bowl of porridge, Ling Wen raised the first way: "Dad, we want to build a big brick house?"
"Well, the house is to live for a lifetime. Of course we have to build it better."
His eyes flashed, and Ling Jingxuan said as gently as possible, for fear that his stingy son would object, but he seemed to belittle him and nodded with his approval: "well, Dad, if you want to build it, you should save a little. We can't earn that little money. It's always good to save more on hand."
Maybe today they made more than 2000 Liang silver. Ling Wen didn't object to it. Although he still added the book, it was enough.
"Oh, of course, I have to save more money to marry you in the future."
Ling Jingxuan a happy, decisive with him a joke.
"Dad?" Two little buns blushed at the same time. How can we say that the children in ancient times were precocious? How old are they? When it comes to marrying a daughter-in-law, they will blush.
"I'll go with you later." Doting on his son, Yan Shengrui turns his head and looks at Ling Jingxuan. The wound on his head is almost scabby, but he can't be too tired. It should be OK to walk around the town.
"Well, Jinghan, what book do you want to buy? Tell Jingpeng the name of the book and we'll bring it back to you later." Ling Jingxuan agreed after a moment's consideration and turned to Ling Jinghan.
"Hey, elder brother, you should be careful. You can rest assured that my father and I are at home."
These words seem ordinary, but actually contain several meanings. Ling Jingxuan understood them and nodded with him with a smile in the corner of his eyes. The family discussed the next schedule at the dinner table. After breakfast, Ling Jingxuan, Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingpeng went out. Today, they have a lot of things to do.
