Travel through the farm and live a leisurely life by farming
Chapter 138: It's time to start work
"Mother, Grandma, we are back!"
Su He and Xia Mei pushed open the gate, entered the yard and started shouting.
Su Mu drove the ox cart around the yard and went to the backyard.
Mrs. Xie, who was busy in the kitchen, ran out immediately after hearing the noise. When she saw the two men coming back, she hurriedly asked them to go into the house and rest first.
"Where are Grandpa and the others?"
There are several large basins in the yard. It seems that the sweet potatoes harvested yesterday have been processed and are waiting to settle.
"Your grandfather and his men went outside to clean up the vacant lot. Su Bai took Ah Chi and said they were going to the river to catch snails."
The Su family liked the snails that Su He made yesterday. After finishing the housework, Su Chi took Su Bai out.
Su Chi was young, and Old Man Su was worried about him going alone, so he agreed to let Su Bai take him.
"Today is your first day of setting up the stall. How is it going?"
Mrs. Xie was a little nervous and rubbed her hands on her apron.
She knew that Su He bought the vacant land next door with the intention of opening a sweet potato noodle workshop.
Whether this workshop can be opened or not, ultimately depends on this snack stall.
This workshop can only be kept open if the business is good.
This piece of land next door cost a lot of money. If this workshop cannot be opened, wouldn’t it be a waste of so much money?
Seeing Xie's nervous look, Su He thought of how Su Mu and Xia Mei looked exactly the same on the way back just now.
Su He smiled softly, patted Xie's hand, and consoled her: "Business is very good today, and almost all the items are sold out."
Although some were given away, overall today's situation was completely within Su He's expectations.
"Don't worry, mother. When everyone is here in the evening, I will tell you in detail what happened today."
After hearing Su He's words, Xie finally put down the worry that had been hanging in her heart today.
Today was the first day that Su He and the other two went to town to set up their stall. Although the Su family didn't say much, they were all thinking about it in their hearts.
Xie knew Su He's personality. Since Su He said so, the business must be good, so she felt relieved.
Su He sat down to rest for a while, then went out to take a look at the open space next door. She planned to open the workshop as soon as possible, so she should talk to Old Man Su about this and settle it as soon as possible.
Su He walked out of the courtyard and turned a corner, and saw Old Man Su and others busying themselves.
"Grandpa, Dad..."
Hearing the voice, several people straightened up and looked behind them, and saw Su He walking towards them.
"Aho is back."
"Why don't you rest in the house?"
It was already evening, and Su He and his friends came back a little later than usual. They were worried that the sales at their stall were not going well today.
But now seeing Su He, he became hesitant again, fearing that Su He would not be able to answer his questions.
It doesn’t matter if sales really aren’t good. I can still continue making mushroom jam at home and earn some income for a while.
I'll figure out the rest later.
"I'm fine. I just drank some water and I'm not tired now."
"Grandpa, this place is almost done."
It seems that the weeds have been almost cleared away, and then we can build the wall.
"Okay, we've just finished our work and are about to go back."
Su He looked around and nodded.
"Grandpa, if we build a wall, how long will it take to complete it?"
Although the Su family's yard is not small, they still have to process mushrooms on a daily basis. If they want to dry sweet potato flour inside at that time, it will definitely be inconvenient with people coming and going.
Su He wanted to finish the wall quickly so that he could start work earlier.
Hearing Su He's words, Old Man Su was slightly stunned. Building a wall?
Judging from Su He's expression, it seems that she wants to finish it as soon as possible.
"Grandpa, I want to open our workshop as soon as possible."
As soon as the words fell, not only Old Man Su, but also the people around him were stunned.
What he meant was that their business was pretty good today, otherwise why would they be so anxious to open a workshop suddenly?
Before, when Su He said he wanted to open a workshop, everyone in the Su family found it a little unbelievable. This small business is very different from opening a workshop.
Now that Su He said this, he must have his own considerations, and today is the first day of setting up the stall, so...
"You guys went to town today, how was business?"
Old Man Su couldn't help but ask, and when the others heard this, they all looked towards Su He, waiting for her response with anticipation.
The corners of Su He's mouth slowly rose. She knew what they were worried about.
"It's pretty good. The goods are almost sold out. The owner of Qianweilou said that any merchants passing by will help promote us in the future."
"So I thought that the workshop should be opened earlier. The sweet potato flour can be stored for a long time and there is no need to worry about it going bad."
Upon hearing Su He's words, several people grinned and laughed, and instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, okay, then we can rest assured."
"If we are in a hurry, we can build a mud wall first. It is convenient to use local materials."
Old Man Su was also so happy, and after thinking for a while, he continued, "But we still have to pick mushrooms in the morning, so I'm afraid we can't do it so quickly."
The mushroom jam cannot be delayed, as we still have to go into the mountains in the morning. We can only wait until after noon for a few people to come over and get busy.
The good news is that the weather is good today, so the mud wall can be built quickly. However, there are still not enough people, so it will take some time.
After listening to what Old Man Su said, Su He lowered his head slightly and thought secretly in his heart, then said: "Why don't we ask a few people in the village to come and help, and we will pay them for their work."
It is not expensive to hire a few workers in the village. Now we are in a hurry and we need to build the workshop as soon as possible. It is worthwhile to pay some workers.
Old Man Su raised his eyebrows slightly and nodded.
"That's fine. There's not much work to do in the fields right now, and there are many idle people in the village. I'll go find someone later."
It doesn't cost much money to find a few people in the village, and it won't delay things, which is pretty good.
Su He nodded. She felt relieved to leave the matter to Old Man Su. Grandpa knew those people in the village who worked quickly and efficiently and would not slack off.
"Let's find a few more, build the workshop as soon as possible, and put up a few sheds."
Su He pointed to one side and said that the prepared sweet potato flour would need to be stored later, so while there were enough people, it would be better to make it at the same time, which would save trouble later.
Old Man Su nodded.
"Okay, the work here is done, I'll go now and we can start work tomorrow."
Old Man Su was also anxious. He handed the sickle in his hand to Su Danian beside him, turned around and walked quickly towards the village.
Seeing that the work here was almost done, several people followed Su He and walked back home.
