We have separated, what does it have to do with me if my husband's family eats bran?
Chapter 61: Wangshan Village, Far Ahead
After dinner, Wu took Cheng Yue and the others to buy chickens and ducks.
It is Wangshan Village not far from the town. It is close to the upper reaches of Tang River and is one of the few plain landforms in the entire town.
Unlike Houshui Village, which is surrounded by mountains on all sides, here there is relatively more water than mountains.
Because of this, Wangshan Village has a lot of fertile fields, many fishermen who make a living by fishing, and some people who make money from the fields. Therefore, life here is much better than in other villages.
In recent years, as more people have been fishing and the prices for their catch have not been very high, some smart people have started raising ducks.
As the saying goes, live by the mountain, eat by the mountain; live by the water, eat by the water.
It is best to raise ducks in places with plenty of water. Ducks are easy to raise and do not require much effort. They can grow fat and strong by just driving them into the river to eat fish and shrimps.
Later, after I made money raising ducks, I started raising chickens as well, as I could sell them together anyway.
The villagers of Wangshan Village think that this is a stable livelihood, and every household raises some chickens and ducks. Although each family does not have many, there are at least thousands of them in the entire village.
As they walked, Mrs. Wu talked about the situation in Wangshan Village, which made Cheng Yue marvel at what she said. She thought that it was a blessing to be born in the right place.
I also think that the family who first raised ducks was really smart. They knew how to adapt to local conditions and led the entire village into a virtuous cycle of making money.
Cheng Yue was sighing when her family arrived at the entrance of the village. Before entering the village, they heard bursts of croaking sounds coming from the river. It was really lively.
There are also people raising pigs in Wangshan Village, but pigs consume a lot of food, so not many are raised.
Mrs. Wu would come here to buy pigs more than a dozen times a year, so many villagers knew her.
Seeing her coming, several women gathered at the entrance of the village greeted her warmly.
"Mrs. Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time. You've even replaced your ox cart. It looks like your business is good. Congratulations!"
Mrs. Wu groaned and said with a smile, "I don't have that ability, but I am lucky to have a living. This ox cart belongs to my daughter, and she came here to buy chickens and ducks."
Hearing this, the women looked at Cheng Yue in surprise. Seeing that she was well-dressed and had a bullock cart, they thought that she might be an important customer.
After all, their village is considered to be well off, but there are only three or five families who can afford an ox cart. An ox cart is a pawn that everyone has, and not everyone is willing to buy one.
Those who can afford a ox cart either have enough money in savings or are engaged in business. This is the experience they have observed over the years.
Everyone thought so and smiled more sincerely. "This ox cart is worth a lot of money. Sister Wu, you are so lucky to have such a capable daughter!"
"Yes, a daughter is like a mother. The good day will come when the daughter has the potential to become a mother."
Wu couldn't help but straighten her back, but said modestly: "What achievements have I made? I'm just doing some small business, how can I compare with you?
Oh, let’s not talk about this anymore. My daughter came here to buy chickens and ducks. Let’s talk about business first. You almost led me astray!”
She didn't want to show off her wealth, as that would cause trouble for her daughter, so she quickly changed the subject.
The women smiled and said, "Let's get down to business, girl. How many chickens and ducks do you want to buy? We don't have anything else in our village, but chickens and ducks are plentiful."
Cheng Yue got straight to the point: "I don't want much, I just need a continuous supply every day, ten chickens and ten ducks a day for now."
She estimated the approximate customer flow and calculated that it would be enough to braise a total of 100 kilograms of chicken, duck and pork every day, with more than 30 kilograms of each type.
The quantity required can be adjusted at any time depending on business.
"Ten every day?" The women were stunned. Although ten were not a lot, if he wanted them every day, that would be a big deal.
"It's no problem if we need these. If we can't provide them alone, then the whole village can provide them together!"
Without Cheng Yue's words, they had already figured out a solution. "It doesn't matter who supplies the goods. As long as there is a steady supply, it's fine. As long as the chickens and ducks are not sick, it's fine."
When the women heard this, they hurriedly said, "Don't worry, there are absolutely no sick chickens or ducks. We have been raising chickens and ducks in our village for many years, and we would never do such a shameless thing!"
"That's right, we won't do anything immoral! Come home with us and take a look. Then you can buy it after you have made up your mind."
As they talked, a group of women insisted on dragging Cheng Yue home to see the chickens and ducks. Cheng Yue also wanted to see them, so she went with them.
After checking that the chickens and ducks were in good condition, both parties started discussing the details of the supply.
The villagers knew that Cheng Yue wanted a lot, so they lowered the price without waiting for her to speak. They also said that they would pay the money before receiving the goods, and asked Cheng Yue to inspect the goods before paying. Their sincerity was great.
The price was agreed upon, and the transaction method was no problem. Cheng Yue said, "I have one more thing to ask. I need you to help me kill the fish and send it over. You don't need to do anything else except plucking the feathers.
The best time for delivery is in the morning, of course the afternoon is also OK, but not later than the end of the afternoon, otherwise there is no problem. "
There is a kitchen in the shop, so she plans to make the braised food in the shop. It can be moved directly into the shop after being made the day before, saving her the trouble of making it at home and transporting it every day.
However, the kitchen and yard of the shop are very small, and it is not very convenient to handle chickens and ducks. She doesn't want to kill chickens and ducks in the backyard and make it dirty everywhere.
It is much more convenient to prepare plucked chickens and ducks. You just need to cut them up and marinate them. It doesn’t take up space and doesn’t take up extra time.
Seeing Cheng Yue's serious tone, the women thought it was a big deal, but after hearing it, they laughed cheerfully, "This is all trivial, it's just killing a chicken and plucking its feathers, it's nothing.
When the time comes, whether it's chicken or duck blood or chicken or duck feathers, we will give them all to you, and we guarantee that nothing will be missing."
Cheng Yue was about to say that she didn't want the chicken and duck feathers anymore, but then she thought that she had accumulated a lot of them and could process them to make down quilts, so she agreed.
I have to say, they are very thoughtful.
As for the contract, it has not been signed yet. There is no need to sign any contract if the goods are delivered and the money is paid in person. Even if it is signed, we have to wait until the business is stable.
No one had any objection, and Cheng Yue said that they would notify us in advance when the supply started.
After saying this, Cheng Yue thought about how she still needed to start breeding, so she ordered a batch of chicken and ducklings from everyone, about 500 in batches.
It’s hard to say how the braised food business will go. I can only buy less. If the business really doesn’t take off, I won’t lose money by selling chickens and eggs.
After all, I have raised chickens before, and I have several sacks of wheat bran in my space. I can replenish it when it is used up. It is a business with no cost.
But there was not enough space in her house, so she had to make arrangements to raise them, so she could only buy them in batches.
Now is a good season for hatching chickens and ducks, so there is no shortage of 500, and everyone agreed readily.
He also thought that since Cheng Yue bought so many chicken and duck seedlings, she must be planning to raise them herself. Instead of being unhappy, he excitedly told Cheng Yue about the precautions for raising chickens and ducks and passed on a lot of experience in raising chickens and ducks.
Cheng Yue listened and sighed inwardly, no wonder the saying goes "When the granaries are full, people know etiquette; when they have enough food and clothing, they know honor and disgrace."
Without having to worry about food and clothing, and without having to be so calculative, there will naturally be less friction. With less friction, there will naturally be harmony.
In the final analysis, people are just competing for resources. If everyone can have enough food and clothing, who would fight over a grain of rice or a vegetable?
As expected, if one has enough food and clothing, one's mental outlook will be far ahead.
