"No, all the money from selling goods was used to buy these?" Lin Erniu scratched his ears and repeated it again. He really didn't believe what he heard.

"That's right, second uncle, this money has to be circulated in order to make money, right? We make money by selling goods in the capital, and then we go back to the county to make more money. Doesn't that mean we make money twice? Isn't that a great thing?" Guangdan wanted to give himself a thumbs up as he spoke, it was really well said!

"But, but if this can't be sold--" Before Lin Erniu could finish his words, Lin Xiaoniu who came over covered his mouth.

"Second brother, can we ask for good luck?"

"Okay, okay, okay!" Lin Erniu shook his head helplessly when he saw the uncle and nephew who were basically insane.

"There are a lot of things at home now. Do you need to leave someone at home during the day?" Guangdan turned his head to look at the yard and asked uncertainly.

Although I heard from Uncle Hammer that the security in Lijia Village is quite good, I'm not sure if anyone will be tempted by the money, right?

"Well, let your second aunt stay at home tomorrow, and I will set up the stall by myself." Uncle Lin quickly took over the conversation and glanced at the kitchen unconsciously while speaking.

"I'm going to the market with my buddy and my elder brother tomorrow morning. What about you, Guangdan? Where are you going?"

Guangdan glared at Lin Xiaoniu with his teeth bared and said, "Can't I just run to both sides?"

"Guangdan, take care of the accounts tonight." Lin Erniu only then remembered that he still had important things to do.

After a few words, Second Aunt brought over a large pot of sugar water. The few of them drank a few sips of the warm water, and then they started talking about things in the county.

Neither Lin Xiaoniu nor Guangdan asked too much about the braised meat stall. What they talked about most was the new things happening in the county after winter.

Lin Erniu, who set up a stall on the street, had easy access to gossip about the county town. For example, the county magistrate's brother-in-law was sent to the county town, and it was said that he liked to stroll around the streets every day.

For example, the son of the Wang family in Wangting Lane sold his house because of gambling.

These are what Guangdan and Lin Xiaoniu love to hear. They listen with great interest, which makes Uncle Fang and Hammer shake their heads.

The dinner was very sumptuous, after all, there were ready-made braised dishes and pickles. Lin Erniu even bought some wine from a peddler in the village, which reminded Guangdan of the good wine he brought back from the capital.

He even made a bold statement that he would treat everyone to a great drink during the New Year!

The accounts of the braised meat shop were extremely simple, and the uncle and nephew had sorted them out in a short while in the evening. Seeing that everyone was away, Uncle Lin asked about Tiezi.

Guangdan said frankly that this person was trustworthy and was a family member, so he could use him as he pleased. Only then did Lin Erniu feel relieved.

Although his braised meat stall is not very noticeable in such a big county town, he can still make money, so he still has to be cautious.

I didn't ask any further questions, but I secretly decided in my heart that I should observe my friend more.

In the evening, Guangdan huddled together with his eldest brother Gouwei, who then told him about the general situation at home during this period.

Because Fang Cuihua and Lin Xiaoniu went to the provincial capital, and my second uncle and second aunt had to set up a stall in the county town, the house was suddenly empty. Even though it was late autumn and almost winter, it was not time to hibernate yet.

Every day, grandma would stay at home with my aunts Taohua and Erya to pickle pickles. She and my father would clean the fields, chop firewood in the mountains, and go to the county town to deliver pickles and firewood to my second uncle and aunt.

And in such a busy time, we still have to take time to worry about them who are traveling long distances.

After Gouwei finished speaking, Guangdan felt tired just listening to it. His first reaction was that there were indeed not enough people at home.

The two brothers whispered until late at night before falling into a drowsy sleep. They got up before dawn the next morning again. Guangdan felt that he had not slept enough to wake up naturally in a very, very long time.

With a head of messy, soft yellow hair, he dressed and washed in a daze, then climbed onto the mule cart and continued to sleep.

As for breakfast, he had already discussed it with his eldest brother last night, and they would go to the street near the academy to eat Zhuangyuan Pot Stickers.

Yes, it has such an arrogant name – Zhuangyuan Pot Stickers.

Although the county hasn't produced a top scholar in the past few hundred years, it doesn't stop people from calling it by this name.

The market where Lin Xiaoniu sold his goods was in two directions away from where Lin Erniu set up his stall. After much thought, Guangdan was still curious about his second uncle's braised food stall, so he simply pulled his eldest brother over to the stall.

When the two brothers arrived, their second uncle had not arrived yet. After all, their second uncle was pushing a cart, which was naturally not as fast as a mule cart.

Lin Xiaoniu's mule cart was full of goods and there was no room for the braised food cart. Uncle Fang and Uncle Chui were rushing home early in the morning as if they were injected with chicken blood.

After all, they haven't been home for half a month, and the two men are already impatient. The only regret is the money, which has not been converted into cash yet. It is still a commodity and they have to rely on Lin Xiaoniu to buy it!

While waiting for his second uncle, Guangdan couldn't wait to pull Gouwei and eat a bowl of wontons stuffed with cabbage and pork. Well, it was delicious, but the taste was a little bland.

But it's nice to eat something warm early in the morning.

About fifteen minutes later, Uncle Lin was seen walking briskly on the street pushing a cart. The two patches of red flesh on his face, frozen to the point that they seemed about to crack, made Guangdan feel very distressed.

I still think it would be better to open a shop as soon as possible. Living in the open air is really exhausting.

Just as Uncle Lin had set up his stall and it was still light in the sky, two young men staggered over with hot white flour cakes in their hands and called out in a familiar manner, "Boss, same as always!"

"Okay, okay!" Lin Erniu said as he picked up two small pieces of fat and lean pork head from the pot, chopped it on the chopping board, and added a small amount of pickles and stirred it together.

Then she took the pancake from the young man, carefully cut the soft pancake, put the chopped braised pork head and pickles in the middle of the pancake, poured some braised pork sauce on it, then wrapped it in oil paper and handed it over.

After collecting the money and the two guests left, Guangdan excitedly tugged at his uncle's sleeve and said, "Uncle, how did you come up with this idea?"

"What? Ah! You said that we should eat this braised meat in pancakes. This was suggested by your second aunt. These two young people took two pancakes when they came for the first time. You know what, these pancakes are not ordinary pancakes, they are the pancakes in the big restaurant——"

Lin Erniu's words had completely deviated from the topic! But Guangdan still listened with joy.

Isn't this Roujiamo? ? She is indeed the second aunt he has chosen! ! !

Guangdan was excited at first, but then he thought about the soft white flour pancake and immediately calmed down.

How many families can afford to eat white flour pancakes every day these days? ? Forget it, forget it, don’t get too excited. But if you open a shop, you can still prepare this roujiamo!

"These two are also working in the county government! I only charge one fee every time they come." Lin Erniu muttered softly, then smiled with some complacency.

Guangdan and Gouwei nodded in understanding. For a small family like them with no background, when they met someone from the government office, no matter if it was an official or a small fry, they would have to check their relationships.

After thinking about the pros and cons, Guangdan still smiled and gave his second uncle a thumbs up.
