Soul: At the beginning, the father died, and the eldest and second brothers wanted to separate the f

"Miss Xie, I've been waiting for you in the store for almost a month, but you didn't give me a reply, so I came here on my own!"

Xie Jiaojiao slapped her head. She was only thinking about making the soy sauce and forgot about this matter.

Let them sit down quickly.

"I'm really sorry for my poor memory."

Shopkeeper Chen waved his hands. He originally thought that since the marriage between her family and his young master was already arranged, he might as well just state directly that Qingfeng Tower belonged to the Jiang family.

But then he thought about the fact that Xie Jiaojiao had gone to the young master to cancel the engagement, and he was afraid that if he told her, the deal would fall through, so he kept it to himself.

Xie Jiaojiao asked, "Have you asked your boss about this, Manager Chen?"

"Of course!" Thinking back to when he asked his master about this, his master was so happy and said he didn't expect his daughter-in-law had this ability!

But the color on the lady's face next to me didn't look good at that time!

Xie Jiaojiao nodded: "It's not convenient today, how about I go to town to find Shopkeeper Chen tomorrow and we sign a contract or something?"

Shopkeeper Chen immediately waved his hand: "How can I ask you to make a trip? I'm already here, and I've brought the documents and everything."

After listening to this, Sun Ruhua immediately cleared away all the dishes on the table.

Shopkeeper Chen took out the document and handed it to Xie Jiaojiao: "Miss Xie, look, these are the two copies I drafted. Do you think they are suitable?"

There was no way Xie Jiaojiao could recognize the words of this era. Even the words "Qingfeng Tower" were something she heard from passers-by. The words of this era were very different from what she had learned. Some of them she could recognize, but some she couldn't recognize at all.

"How about Manager Chen, could you read it to me?"

Shopkeeper Chen slapped his head and said, "Look, I didn't realize it. Blame me!"

After Shopkeeper Chen finished speaking, he took the paper and started reading. Xie Jiaojiao listened and nodded. The price was calculated based on the price she sold to Qingfeng Tower last month.

Xie Jiaojiao was quite satisfied. If the wholesale price was this, it would be pretty good.

The two signed their agreement, and Xie Jiaojiao said, "I still have a few jars left from last time, but if you want more, you may have to wait another month, okay?"

"That's fine! We'll use these few jars to spread the word about it. Later, when the production volume increases, more people will buy it!"

Shopkeeper Chen said this with a smile as he put the receipt away and put it in his arms. If he took the receipt back, he would get a lot of reward money.

Seeing that the job was done, Shopkeeper Chen was in a hurry to leave and asked Xie Jiaojiao to fill up the remaining soy sauce for him.

Sun Ruhua went there quickly, and Xie Jiaojiao asked them if they had eaten. Although there was no big fish or meat at home, there was no problem in having enough to eat.

Shopkeeper Chen waved his hand and said, "Let's not have dinner. The restaurant is still busy. And even if we have dinner, we are the one who treats the young lady. It is not reasonable for the young lady to treat us. When you and your family come to town another day, you must come to our Qingfeng Restaurant to have a seat."

Xie Jiaojiao smiled and nodded: "Then I won't keep you two."

Sun Ruhua also brought three jars of soy sauce and handed them to the waiter and the shopkeeper Chen.

Shopkeeper Chen took out five taels of silver and gave it to Xie Jiaojiao: "This extra money will be used as a deposit for the rest."

Xie Jiaojiao was not polite and nodded: "Okay!"

After sending the two out of the yard, Xie Jiaojiao turned around and gave the silver to Sun Ruhua. For the first time, Sun Ruhua did not take the silver: "Forget it, mother has thought about it. From now on, you can take this silver. If mother needs money, mother will ask you for it!"

Xie Jiaojiao was unwilling but still wanted to give it to her. Sun Ruhua still refused: "You take it. You are a person who knows what you are doing. It would be bad to leave it with your mother, otherwise you will be afraid to do anything."

Sun Ruhua said so, Xie Jiaojiao no longer refused: "Okay, if mom needs money, tell me."

Sun Ruhua nodded and pulled Xie Jiaojiao: "Let's go and continue eating!"

After she finished saying this, she felt a lot more relieved. First, the thing was finally sold, and second, the financial power was also handed over, which made her feel a lot more relaxed.

Everyone in the village saw Manager Chen's carriage parked in the village. The road near Xie Jiaojiao's home was not very wide, so the carriage could not pass through. Therefore, the carriage was parked in a more spacious place in the middle of the village.

Seeing the carriage leaving, many people in the village started talking while holding their meals.

"The Xie family actually knows such an influential person!"

"Yes, I saw that they have been busy recently, making some new food. Maybe the person who just came is the owner of Qingfeng Tower."

……

Everyone was very envious.

Of course, Xie Laoer also saw it. The knot in his heart made him very uncomfortable. He went back and let out a sigh of relief. Zhou Cuihong still held her stomach and didn't say a word.

Even though the soy sauce business was successful, there would be trucks coming to transport soy sauce every month. It was obvious that the sales were very good. Xie Jiaojiao and the others were not idle either, and they took advantage of the time to make a few more batches.

The summer passed quickly, and the fields were full of villagers harvesting rice. Everyone's face was filled with smiles of this year's good harvest. This summer was good weather and the rice grew very well. After paying all the heavy taxes, there was still a lot left, so of course everyone was happy.

Even Sun Ruhua never stopped smiling.

Seeing that the crops had been harvested and winter was approaching, Xie Jiaojiao looked at the sugarcanes she had planted in the distance. They were almost ripe. Last year, the sugarcanes only covered one or two mu of land, but now there were one or two mu of land. After much thought, if they brought them all back themselves, they might have to work hard again. After much thought, all the rice had been planted recently, so many people in the village had more free time.

Therefore, he called Sun Ruhua to discuss: "Mom, why don't we ask the villagers to help us harvest the sugarcane, so as not to delay the next planting time. Secondly, it takes a lot of manpower to press the sugarcane. If we do it ourselves, we might break our hands before we are done."

Sun Ruhua felt that what Xie Jiaojiao said made some sense, and asked, "Then should I go directly to the village to call for help?"

Xie Jiaojiao thought for a moment and shook her head again: "You stay at home, I'll go, I'll bring some things to the village chief's house later."

Sun Ruhua thought about it and nodded: "Okay!"

He also reminded her: "Wear something thicker, it's cold now."

Xie Jiaojiao took out some of the snacks that Manager Chen had brought, put the only small piece of sugarcane left from last year into the basket, and carried it to the village chief's house.

On the way, she saw Xie Kun from a distance. Xie Kun must have seen her as well, and he ran back into the house and closed the door.

A few days ago, Zhou Cuihong gave birth. Xie Zhili came and wanted Sun Ruhua to take care of Zhou Cuihong during the confinement period, but was beaten out by Xie Jiaojiao.

What surprised Xie Jiaojiao was that she had always thought Zhou Cuihong was pretending to be pregnant! She never thought that she was really pregnant.

But to her, these people are just unimportant.

Arrived at the village chief’s house.

When the village head's wife Wang Qiushi saw Xie Jiaojiao coming, she said unhappily, "Miss Xie, is there anything wrong with your family again?"

……

Xie Jiaojiao handed over the basket in her hand: "Aunt Wang, how can we have things to do every day! So, thinking that the village chief has helped us a lot before, I want to come and thank you in person."

Wang Qiushi lifted the cloth on the basket. He didn't expect her family to send him anything good. But when he saw the candies and snacks, his eyes lit up immediately. When he looked up at Xie Jiaojiao, his expression changed. "Hey, sit down. I'll go call your uncle. He had lunch at noon and is sleepy!"

Xie Jiaojiao found a stool and sat down. After a while, she saw Chen Shouren coming out with his clothes sorted.

"Xie family, what's going on today?"

"Oh, what are you talking about? I came here to thank you."

Xie Jiaojiao nodded: "Village Chief, Aunt Wang is right. I came here specifically to thank you for your help to my family several times before."

The village chief waved his hand and said righteously: "This is just my job."

Xie Jiaojiao smiled and continued, "Village Chief, the busy farming season is over now. I want to find some people in the village to help my family with some work. I would like to ask the village chief to help notify them."

Chen Shouren was puzzled: "I see your land has been planted?"

Xie Jiaojiao explained: "I want to ask the villagers to help me collect the things in the two acres of land at the foot of the mountain over there."

The village head's wife, Wang Qiushi, also became interested when she heard this: "Xie family, what exactly are you growing at the foot of the mountain?"

"It's sugar cane."

what!

The village chief was a little surprised, it turned out to be sugarcane!

Xie Jiaojiao didn't plan to hide it. If possible, everyone in the village could grow this thing. However, she would have conditions for those who were willing to grow it.
