What do you mean?

Could it be that if they don't offer to sell themselves today, they will be kicked out of the village next year?

Look at the many prepared indentures that the young lady took out. She must want to buy a lot of servants. By then, all the fields on the farm will be worked by those people, and there will be no place for them, the tenants.

Everyone was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. They couldn't help but feel fortunate that they were smart today, otherwise they would have missed such a good opportunity.

If they are really driven out of the village, they will no longer have such a good boss, and the newly built house will not belong to them. In the future, they will not be able to get involved in any good things that the boss has done...

In fact, they had no idea that these indentures were just what Yuxiu had just exchanged from the system space.

The reason I told them all this is just to tighten the belt for everyone and make them feel a little more crisis-stricken.

Sure enough, these people were terrified, and they all shouted that they wanted to sign and seal their names, saying that they would be servants of the Xu family from then on.

Li Qingshi also knew a few words and had some things prepared on the farm, so he asked someone to get them out. The tenants lined up one by one and, under his leadership, put their fingerprints on the place.

After all these people signed and sealed their agreements, Yuxiu collected the large stack of indentures.

All of these have to be registered with the government. With the indentures handed over, the lives of these people will be in the hands of the Xu family.

However, some people still went out to build a kang, so Yuxiu left the corresponding indentures with Li Qingshi. If they were willing to sign, they could sign them together and put them in the farm.

Just wait until they come next time and then take it to the government to register it.

As soon as the work here was completed, a very strong aroma emanated from several large pots over there.

The women are all good at cooking, and the freshly cut pork doesn’t need to be seasoned too much, it’s enough to whet everyone’s appetite.

Since everyone had signed the indenture today, Yuxiu no longer concealed the matter of making sausages and took down several large bags of prepared seasonings from the carriage.

He called a group of women over and briefly explained to them the steps required to make smoked meat and sausages.

Fortunately, these people are all good at their work, and the seasonings are all ground into powder and mixed together. All we have to do is clean and cut the meat, which is a very simple matter.

As for the branches for making smoked meat, Yuxiu adopted the method used in Sichuan and Shu in her previous life and had people go to the mountains to cut down a large pile of cypress branches.

Using cypress branches to smoke pork can not only disinfect and sterilize, but also lock in the nutrients of the pork. The smoke emitted when the cypress branches are burned will also give the pork a special aroma.

After a period of time, dry it in the shade, cut it into thin slices and stir-fry it with garlic sprouts or something. The aroma is so delicious that it’s hard to describe.

After listening to Yuxiu's method, the men went to the mountain to cut cypress branches before dinner, while the women prepared the necessary bamboo plates and chopping boards, and started cutting skillfully according to Yuxiu's request.

Several old ladies carefully cleaned the pig intestines and soaked them in the white wine that Yuxiu brought.

There wasn’t much that could be made from these pig intestines, so Yuxiu thought about it and decided to ask someone to buy some at the market tomorrow.

"This meat is so delicious..."

"Who says it's not? I feel that the aroma I smelled today is different from the pork I've eaten before..."

"I just saw that there were three pots of stewed pig heads alone, and there was also the fat and greasy braised pork, slurp..."

While everyone was busy doing things, they smelled the fragrance in the air and salivated, and they did their work in an orderly manner.

At this time, everyone's stomach is short of oil and water. No one likes the lean meat that is skinny and stuck in the teeth. Everyone has a special liking for fatty meat and likes the feeling of having oil in the mouth when taking a bite.

Soon the first string of sausages was hung up, followed by the second and third strings...

A row of racks were set up in the open space outside the yard, and someone hung the freshly made sausages on the racks. Then the people who were cutting cypress branches came back, and everyone started to work on making smoked meat.

Seeing that they were doing a good job, Yuxiu followed Xu Qinghe and prepared to go back to the city. When they left, there were several large baskets of pork and pork ribs in the car.

As for the pig's trotters, she also picked up some white and plump ones and put them back. Yuxiu planned to keep them in the space and use them to make soup after Cui gave birth.

There were also a lot of cleaned pig livers, pig stomachs, pig intestines and other internal organs put into a wooden basin. Yuxiu planned to ask the kitchen staff to fry them tonight, which would be good for Xu Qinghe to eat with wine.

As soon as the carriage drove out of the village, it met the men who had gone out to help people build a kang and were coming back.

Hearing a burst of chaotic horse hooves, Yuxiu lifted the curtain of the car window and looked outside. Seeing that everyone looked a little panicked, she quickly asked Zhang Dazhui to park the car on the side of the road and wait for those people to come over.

Because they had taken on a lot of work recently, but walking would take up too much time, Xu Qinghe decided to ask them to get a few horse-drawn carriages. Anyway, there were many horses on the farm and they might as well be idle, so they could take them out for a run.

Those who could not fit in the carriage rode directly on horseback, so this time there was also a large group of people coming back.

"Boss, we were working for someone today, and someone from the government office came to us and told us not to build a kang for others tomorrow, but to report to the government office, as the master has some work for us to do."

Boss Yang jumped off the horse, walked up to the carriage and whispered what they had encountered outside today.

"Boss, do you think the government has taken a fancy to our unique craftsmanship and wants to give it to..."

Boss Yang's family had always lived in Huangshi County, and the county magistrate was an out-and-out corrupt official.

At that time, he found opportunities to put several wealthy families in the county into prison. In the end, they had to do everything they could to give away all their belongings in order to save the lives of their entire families.

"Don't worry, I'll go with you tomorrow and see what they mean."

Xu Qinghe and Yuxiu looked at each other and thought of the snow disaster at the same time. They comforted the anxious Yang Lao Da and others. Since they all came over, they hurried to eat the pig-killing meal together. After eating, they took the people who came from the farm to help back home.

When the others heard that the host was not in a hurry and wanted to go with them, their pounding hearts finally calmed down, and when they talked about eating the pig-killing meal, they all had a little joy on their faces.

He thanked the carriage repeatedly and went to the farm impatiently.

After a tiring day, I can have some pig-killing dishes to eat when I get home. It’s such a blessing.
