Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Going to the market to buy cattle

Li Yu comforted Li Mei and turned his head to see Li Qing looking at him with tears in his eyes. Li Yu smiled at him: "A man is still crying, and he is not afraid of jokes."

Li Qing wiped the tears from his face, "Sister, you are suffering." After saying that, he put down the book basket and went out to chop wood with a machete.

"Zhao Di's father, let's go to the forest to dig fertile soil, the fish said that it is good for farming." After Li Mei finished speaking, she went out to pick up the baskets, and walked with Liu Changmin to the forest in the back mountain.

Li Yu said to Zhao Di: "Cousin, you knead the noodles and wait for us to come back and cook."

"I know my cousin." Zhao Di nodded and scooped up the noodles.

Li Yu chased out with a scorpion, a **** and a hoe. In the woods, Li Mei pointed to the soft and fertile soil, "Yu'er, do you think it's just this kind of soil, is it really useful?"

"It's useful, let's dig this home." Li Yu picked up the **** and started digging. As soon as he hoeed down, he saw the gray-black mulch underneath. Li Yu dug up and piled it up. Liu Changmin and Li Mei dug a Yes, put it in a basket and pick it up and dump it on the wasteland.

The three of them picked one of them to dig, and they were busy until the sun went down and piled up several large composts on the wasteland.

Li Yu saw the sun was going down, and said to Li Mei, "Auntie has finished picking these out, you and my uncle will go home for dinner, and I'll go back to cook noodles."

"Hey! Go back first!" After Li Mei responded with a crisp voice, she dug the fertile soil into the basket and poured it into the basket. Li Yu took the **** and went home, washed his hands with water and went to the stove to take a few. Put the ingredients in a large bowl.

Zhao Di put the washed cabbage leaves on the stove, and Li Yu asked her to call Laidi and Li Qing back for dinner.

Li Yu rolled the noodles into a skin, chopped them finely, shook the noodles and put them into the pot. When they were half-cooked, he put the vegetable leaves in and cooked them together with the noodles. A spoonful of bolognese sauce was scooped in a bowl.

Laidi and Li Qing were holding a bowl of noodles, they were sweating profusely, and they praised Li Yu while eating, "Sister, (cousin) the noodles with meat sauce are so delicious, spicy and spicy, rabbit meat. Ding is chewy and fragrant."

The two had a good meal, and Zhao Di asked Li Yu, "Cousin, are you planning to make this kind of sauce to sell? I think you are made of rabbit meat, peanuts and sesame seeds. Can these expensive things make money? ?"

Li Yu calculated, "Five catties of peppers, twenty-five cents, six rabbits, five hundred cents, rapeseed oil is more expensive... After Li Yu estimated, "These things cost about one or two cents in total. Capital, if you can hold seventy or eighty cans, each can can be sold for thirty cents, and there will be a profit of more than one or two silvers. Do you think it can be done? "

Everyone's eyes lit up after hearing this, and Li Meile said, "Of course you can do it with double the profit. Tomorrow we go to the market to pack a dozen cans and take them to town to see how much one can sell." Li Mei got up and planned to wash the cans. go.

Li Yu hurriedly called her, "Auntie, after the jar is washed, it must be scalded with salt water again. If the family has diarrhea, it will be troublesome."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." When Li Mei said that, she went to the well to fetch water and wash the jars.

Li Yu quickly burned a pot of salt water, and the sisters Zhao Di brought the cleaned jar over to Li Yu and washed it with salt water, then took it upside down and put it in the frame.

The next morning, Li Yu got up and saw that Li Mei had already woken up and started making breakfast.

Li Yu went to the place where the noose was placed in the woods and picked up four dead hares and two live grey rabbits.

Li Yu touched the dead rabbit and it was still warm, put the rabbit into the space, and put the noose in a different place, and took the two live rabbits back to Laidi.

Li Yu instructed Laidi, "Remember that rabbits can't eat weeds with dew, they like to eat milkweed and lettuce leaves."

"Cousin, I remember." Laidi happily took the rabbit and went to Liu Changmin to make a cage.

After eating, Li Yu began to put the prepared meat sauce into the back basket, Li Qing came over and said to Li Yu, "Sister, sir, he said that he will rest for five days in five days, and he will let us come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival to help. Cut corn at home."

"Okay," Li Yu handed a jar of spicy meat sauce to Li Qing, "Bring a jar of meat sauce to your husband, thank him for teaching you."

"Thank you, sister." Li Qing took the meat sauce and walked towards the school. Li Yu and Li Mei went to town with the meat sauce on their backs.

Li Qing arrived at the door of the academy and saw the handsome and elegant gentleman and his little servant Ruyi like a smiling fox, standing at the door one after the other to see off the two guests.

Li Qing stepped forward and bowed in salute, "Mr. Morning."

Zhou Jia looked at Li Qing with a slight smile, "Hurry up and go in! I'll have to take the exam that I taught yesterday."

"Yes, sir," Li Qing bowed and handed the spicy meat sauce in his hand, "Sir, this is the meat sauce made by my sister. My sister said that I would like to thank you for your teaching."

Zhou Jia thought that Li Qing's sister, like those women in the village who were fascinated by him, gave herself something through her brother's hand. Reaching out to take the meat sauce, he handed it to Ruyi, "Okay, thank you sister for me."

turned around and walked towards the classroom. After returning to the room with the meat sauce, Ruyi handed it to Jixiang who looked festive, "Jiangxiang, I heard that this meat sauce is delicious. I'll bring it to you."

"I'm just hungry." Jixiang went to the stove with the meat sauce, opened the steamer, took a steamed bun and broke it open, unplugged the jar, and smelled a strong spicy smell.

Jixiang took a spoon and scooped out a spoon, spread it on the steamed bun, took a bite, it was numb and spicy, the meat inside felt fragrant and spicy, and said to himself: "This Ruyi has deceived me so much. Second, why did you change it this time?"

Li Yu and Li Mei arrived in the town, and Liu Changmin took them to a place where livestock was sold. Liu Changmin looked at several places, and finally bought a sturdy cattle for 11 taels of silver.

The broker took a few people to register before Liu Changmin paid the money and walked towards the place where the wooden wares were sold with the ox.

Li Yu looked at the scalper and asked puzzled: "Uncle, I see that the cows in front are quite tall, and the price is cheaper. How did you choose this one?"

Liu Changmin pointed at the horns and said with a smile: "Look at the raised areas here are the growth rings of the cattle, one circle is a year old. When buying a cow, you should buy a young one, with a good mouth and a wide back, thick limbs and smooth fur. These few, if you look at this cow, it has all of them, and it doesn't matter if the price is more expensive."

Li Yu suddenly realized after hearing this, thinking: It turns out that buying a cow also has so much knowledge.

When he arrived at the place where the scooters were sold, Liu Changmin picked out a scooter that had been brushed with tung oil. The car seller boasted of himself, saying that the rafters of his car were made of sapwood and had been used for decades without any problems. .

Li Mei pointed to the mixing bucket in the wooden shop and said to Li Yu: "Fish, the millet will be cut soon, we will buy a mixing bucket and go home to thresh the millet."

Li Yu walked into the wooden shop and saw the mixing bucket and windmill machine inside. He felt that it was not much different from what he used at home in the countryside in his previous life. He felt that there must be a transmigration **** who made these things.

Li Yu simply bought the mixing bucket and the wind mill machine, and the guy helped them carry them to the trolley. A few people set up the car and went to the incense paper money shop to buy things for sacrifice, and then went to the market to buy some onions, **** garlic and some Vegetables, went out of the town and walked towards the official road.
