After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land
Chapter 156 Plowshare
Ye Qing took Ye Xuan shopping for a few days and had become familiar with the city. They chose a store with the best prices and bought some seafood that was easy to store.
There are a lot of dried fish, shrimps and kelp near the sea in Yangcheng. The price is very cheap. They will not go bad in a short time if you take them back, so you can sell them slowly.
Uncle Ye also confirmed that they planned to buy some to take back, but what they bought was not food.
A store in Yangcheng launched a new improved plow. They tried it out and found it to be more labor-saving and time-saving than the original one.
A plow, including the plowshare and the handle, costs two taels of silver. The plowshare costs one and a half taels of silver, and the handle costs half a tael of silver.
Ye Laosan really has a talent for business. After taking a few looks, he decided to buy only one set of plows and use the remaining nine sets for plowshares.
The plowshare doesn't take up much space and the armrests are made of wood. I'll go back and let Ye Laoer watch me make the complete set.
Ye Qing looked at Ye Laosan with admiration. She still had a lot to learn.
Early in the morning, they set out on their return journey. This time there was less stuff in the car and they traveled faster, taking five days less than when they came here.
Ye Dalang then found an opportunity to ask Ye Qing, "Qingya, what medicine did you feed those bandits? Was it really poison?"
Those bandits committed many evil deeds. The leaders were sentenced to execution and the others were exiled thousands of miles away.
Ye Qing chuckled, "I don't have any poison. I lied to them. I crushed some very spicy peppers into balls and coated them with a thin layer of batter. When you eat them, your stomach will ache."
Ye Dalang didn't expect it to be so simple, he was frightened. "Qingya, do you have any more? Give me some."
The people who were listening attentively nearby came over to take some, as this was a treasure to carry with them when they were away from home.
Ye Qing was not stingy. She was worried about encountering something on the road, so she made a lot and gave five to each person, and there were some left over.
Everyone in the convoy kept it carefully. This thing can still be useful to deceive ordinary people.
After walking for a few days, they finally arrived at Wu'an City. Ye Qing first delivered the seafood he brought to various restaurants.
This place is far from Yangcheng, the seafood has a strong smell, and we have to cross mountains and rivers to bring it here.
As long as they can be brought here, all major restaurants will buy some and store them, and the prices are very high.
Ye Qing and Ye Xuan brought less, only one cart, and earned about ten taels of silver.
Ye Qing gave Ye Xuan two taels of silver. This time, Ye Xuan helped drive the cart and sell goods and find merchants, and he paid a lot.
Ye Xuan touched the silver and felt very excited. He made almost seven taels of silver in this trip.
I gave all my monthly salary to my family, but didn’t give away the bonus. Now I have almost half a tael of silver, so I have about seven taels in my hand.
Ye Xuan was very grateful to Ye Qing. If it weren't for her helping him make money, he would still be despised at home.
At this moment, he made up his mind not to betray the workshop, cling to his sister's thigh, and reach the peak of his life.
Ye Laosan led the convoy back to the village first, and Ye Qing also hurried back after selling the goods.
Having been away from home for so long, she missed her family, the fish cooked by her grandmother, and the bones stewed by Zhou.
When Ye Qing and his companion arrived at the village entrance, Old Man Ye was sitting there with Wangcai and Heizi.
Ye Qing saw Old Man Ye and said, "Grandpa, I'm back."
Old Man Ye stood up, with a smile on his face, "You're back, go home quickly, your family is waiting for you."
Ye Xuan stopped the car, took Old Man Ye with him, and drove the ox cart home. Wangcai and Heizi excitedly followed the car.
"Grandpa, you are waiting for us. My uncle and the others will be back in the morning."
"I just happened to come here, so I'll sit down and take a rest. Your uncle and his friends arrived this morning, and everyone in the village went to the meeting hall to see them. It was quite lively."
Ye Qing looked at the old man Ye who said this, but did not point it out. Instead, he just talked to him about the interesting things that happened on the road with his hands and feet gesticulating.
Old Man Ye didn't say anything, but listened to his granddaughter attentively, and even laughed when she talked about something happy.
Arriving at the door of his house, Ye Xuan stopped the car and said, "Grandpa, I'm home."
"Don't go back. Eat at home. Everything is ready." Old Man Ye kept Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan was observant. Ye Qing and Ye Dalang had just returned, and it was not appropriate for him, an outsider, to go to dinner.
Seeing that he insisted on leaving, Ye Qing gave him a portion of the remaining seafood and asked him to take it back for his family to try.
Ye Xuan carried his luggage and seafood and walked towards home. The two houses were not far away, and he could reach home in a few steps.
Old man Ye drove the ox cart to the backyard. As soon as Ye Qing entered the door, he was surrounded by family members.
"Qingya has lost weight. You have suffered a lot on this trip. Let your mother nourish you." Li looked at her granddaughter with heartache.
Zhou nodded in agreement, "You can't go out. I can't sleep well when you're away."
Wei Xin suggested, "Mom, kill a chicken for Qingya."
Zhou loved her son in the morning, but now she loves her daughter. "Kill two more and give them both a helping hand."
Ye Qing also missed his family, so he took out his bag and distributed gifts to everyone.
I brought a scarf to Li, which was beautifully made and very suitable for an older person to wear.
I brought a comb to Zhou, which has massage function and looks very elegant.
I brought Wei Xin a bronze mirror that was carved with flowers and was clearer than the ones sold in Wu'an City.
The three of them touched their gifts and were very happy.
I brought two jars of wine to Old Man Ye, which was the most famous wine in Yangcheng.
I brought a set of teapots for Boss Ye so that he can make tea when guests come.
Everyone liked their gifts very much. This was Ye Qing’s thoughtful gesture. He did not forget to bring them gifts even though he had come so far.
Ye Qing also divided the seafood that he had saved for his family, giving each family one portion, and also prepared one portion for Grandpa Wei's family.
Compared to Ye Qing, Ye Dalang was disliked by his family. He only bought some cakes and they were drained on the way.
However, he bought a pair of lilac-shaped earrings for Wei Xin, which received unanimous praise.
The convoy rested for two days, and then the village head organized another convoy to deliver goods to Yangcheng.
The plow he brought was handed over to the village head. Ye Laoer looked at it twice and dismantled a few more places.
It took two days to make it and I sold it to the villagers for 200 coins each.
I took the ten plows I brought back out and tried them out. It took me half an hour less to plow one acre of land than usual.
All ten plows were left behind, but they never left the village. Those who bought plowshares went to Ye Laoer to order handrails.
The head of the village gave the villagers a preferential price, a set was three taels, and the plowshare was two and a half taels.
The money earned belongs to the village, and those who go out with the convoy will get a separate share.
This time, except for Ye Laosan who led the way, the rest were newcomers, giving every young person the opportunity to go out and broaden their horizons.
Ye Qing was in a dilemma. The only person in her workshop who was suitable to go out was Ye Xuan, but Ye Xuan had just returned and had not had a two-day break.
It would be a pity to give up this opportunity, after all, a good merchant has already been found there.
Ye Xuan was in charge of the workshop. Knowing Ye Qing's situation, he took the initiative to step forward and was willing to go again to make more money while he was still young.
Ye Qing had no choice but to agree first. She would have to recruit more people later to make the workshop bigger and stronger.
