"Girl, this is from shopkeeper Wen in the morning." Poplar will be four hundred taels of silver on the table, "the restaurant's business is very good, with the day into gold to describe is not too much."
"If only there were so much more every day." Song Xintong put the silver into the box, "a few days ago, the guests were still in a new period to our restaurant, and then their enthusiasm will gradually decrease."
Poplar said with a smile: "that girl does not have to worry, no matter how little it is, it will not be less than the daily earnings of the restaurants on the wharf."
"I don't know how the restaurant is now." From the beginning of July to now, it has been a whole month since he left home. Song Xintong still misses his family very much. "Is the carriage ready?"
The poplar whispered, "you're ready to go now."
I will go to Zhuangzi again today. Tomorrow evening, I will leave Lingnan city and return to the village.
It took half an hour to reach Chuang Tzu. The reconstruction of Chuang Tzu is in full swing. More than half of it has been completed. It only takes a few days to finish it all.
Liu Zhuangtou's wife brought tea: "master, please have tea."
After a pause, he said: "just now, I heard from Daya that her master was a little angry, so I made these chrysanthemum tea."
Song Xintong took a sip of tea. The fragrance of the sun dried chrysanthemum was still there. After being soaked in hot water, it was more bright. The pale yellow petals of chrysanthemum floated in the water, adding some color to the white cup. "It tastes good. Where did you pick them?"
"Wild chrysanthemums picked in the mountains." Liu Zhuangtou's wife quickly said, "it was the granddaughter who picked it when she went to the mountain to cut firewood."
"Not bad." Song Xintong drank two mouthfuls and put the quilt back, "what have you learned these days?"
"Don't worry, master. We'll be all right." Liu Zhuangtou said, "my master, my boy also found some prawns in the valley of the mountain that Daya girl said. They have been identified by Daya girl and put into the field."
Song Xintong nodded, "I will let people send another batch after I meet tomorrow. It's not enough to rely on you to look for it like this."
Song Xintong took nearly 30 mu of poor land with relatively desolate backers to raise shrimps and snails. He also dug three mu of lotus ponds to grow lotus roots and fish. When the time comes, the restaurant will not be able to use up and sell them.
And it's only half an hour away from the dock, so it's convenient to transport it back to the village or to other state capitals.
As for the rest of the field, the field is still used to grow rice, and the land is used to grow vegetables, peppers, or sweet potatoes.
She also took more than ten mu of dry land for renovation. When winter comes, she can grow vegetables. When everyone can only eat radish and cabbage, her restaurant also has all kinds of vegetables. This is where she makes money.
Liu Zhuangtou said: "what the owner said is."
"While they are still here today, ask more if you don't understand." After Song Xintong gave orders, he took the twins to the field.
Looking at the fields, Xiao Bao couldn't close his eyes with a smile. "Sister, are these fields ours?"
"It's our family." Song Xintong went to the irrigated lotus pond and looked at the fry swimming around. "Look at the fish in it."
"Sister, do you want to grow lotus in it?" Asked Dabao.
Song Xintong: "yes, but we have to wait until the spring of next year."
"Why not now?" Asked Xiao Bao.
"I don't know. You can go back to my brother-in-law's book. Maybe there will be an answer in it." Song Xintong only knows that lotus roots are usually planted after the first month or in February, and they can be harvested in May or June of the lunar calendar. It's probably because of the weather and temperature, but she doesn't want to talk to them about this and ask them to turn over their books.
Dabao then asked, "why don't you put the shrimp in it and raise it with the fish?"
"Because the water for fish farming is very deep, it's difficult to fish in the future, and we mainly sell shrimps, so we have to raise a lot of shrimps. If it's only for our own family, it doesn't matter if we mix them with fish."
"Oh." The twins nodded.
Song Xintong went to the shrimp field again. The field here is shady, and there is water flowing out of the mountain. There are lots of rocks, which is similar to the several acres of shrimp field in Taohua village. It's a good place to raise shrimp.
"Master song, what do you think of these Asked the master craftsman.
Song Xintong nodded, "very good."
The craftsman was very surprised at first, but now he is not surprised. "It's the first time that I saw someone doing this in the field."
"Please keep it secret." Song Xintong doesn't want to wait until winter, and the farms everywhere are the same as her.
"Don't worry, master song. We have rules." The craftsman said, "there are still three days to go, and it will be finished soon."
Song Xintong nodded, looked around, and then pointed to the area between the shrimp field and the dry land, "let me have another room here. It doesn't need to be too good. It just needs to be able to keep out the wind and rain. I'll put firewood in it."
The craftsman thought, "we don't need green bricks. We'll take the earth we dug out and dry some adobe for you. At that time, we can simply build walls and some columns to build the roof."
Song Xintong thought about it and thought it was feasible: "OK, if there is another shed nearby, it can be used as a place for vigil."
"Well, we'll take two people to make adobe."
"That's hard work, masters." Song Xintong strolled around again, went back to Zhuangzi and told Liu Zhuangtou about the firewood house. "The next time is a period of leisure time. You must store more firewood before autumn. In winter, you will use firewood every day."
"Don't worry, master. We'll go to the mountain to get the dishes when we've finished." Liu Zhuangtou's wife said.
Song Xintong thought for a while and then said, "it's better to have some dogs in Chuang Tzu. The dogs are always more alert, so that no one will be jealous of us in the future."
"Well, two days ago, I heard the villagers outside say that their dog will have a baby in a few days. When it's full moon, they will catch it and keep it." Liu Zhuangtou's wife said.
"Good." Song Xintong looked at the sky outside, "it's late. We'll go back to the city first. After they're finished, let them go to j restaurant to find the manager's salary."
"Good owner."
"If you have something you can't decide, go to the restaurant to find shopkeeper Wen. Shopkeeper Wen, you have also said that you can discuss something with him. If you really can't decide, let him write to me." Song Xintong thought, as if nothing to say, "can remember?"
"Don't worry, master. I'll remember."
After giving an account, song Xintong went back to the city and bought a lot of cloth and gifts for mother-in-law Qiu and aunt Xie.
