Plane Trading: A Peasant Girl Escapes from Famine and Becomes Rich Enough of a Nation
Chapter 111 Giving Sword
"Aunt, you're here..." Su Qiuyi walked towards her aunt and shook her head, "You're busy enough. You have to make lunch for the workers every day. How can you have time to feed the cows?"
The aunt and niece bumped into each other when they were walking a few steps. Su Xiaofang held her niece's hand and helped her cover her hand. She felt so distressed seeing her niece busy supporting the family at such a young age.
"Yiyi, auntie has nothing to do in the morning and evening, so she can handle it! At least she has less time than you and your daughter! It's okay!"
Since the new house was at the west end of the village and it was morning, everyone in the village was busy reclaiming land and no one noticed that they had brought back so many cows, so no one was around to watch.
Su Qiuyi was glad that Chu Mingxiao sent the cows at this time, otherwise, who knows how many villagers would be jealous.
On second thought, the whole village would know about it in two days, and there was nothing she could do.
"Aunt, you and uncle have helped us enough. Feeding cows is not a one- or two-day job. If our biscuit business is good, we will have to keep raising cows, and there may be more. We can't always ask you to help! I think, why don't we find a reliable person, pay him a salary every month, and let him help feed the cows. Aunt, please help me find who is more suitable..."
Su Qiuyi is a modern person, and he doesn’t think of buying people to use, but hiring people is normal.
Su Laosan also followed and turned to look at the sixteen extra cows in the house. He felt that his daughter was right.
He himself really had no time to take care of the cows. He had already planned to return to the lumber shop to work once the furniture for the new house was finished.
The family's expenses are increasing, and he has to make money quickly.
But he never thought that the cookies made by his three daughters could be sold for money.
After all, he had never thought of using his daughters' money.
Seeing that both father and daughter had made up their minds, Su Xiaofang nodded.
"Why not consider Wang Xiang? His grandparents are gone, and it's hard for him to be alone. If he can have a helper, it would be better!"
Speaking of Wang Xiang, Su Xiaofang's face was full of pity.
How old is she? Not even older than her son, and she lives alone. She doesn’t know what she eats or whether the house is warm.
Because Wang Xiang and Yang Ruchuan were good friends and played well together, and she had watched the child grow up since he was a child, it was understandable that she felt sorry for him.
Su Qiuyi nodded without hesitation, "Okay! Then let's go with Wang Xiang. I'll talk to him later. If he's willing, I'll let him feed the cows. I'll pay him 800 coins a month. When there are more cows, the salary will go up. But can he milk the cows?"
After all, he is just a young boy. Can he do that job?
"He will learn it if he is taught. So let's go talk to him now, auntie!" Su Xiaofang looked happy.
Su Qiuyi and her father took another look at the new house.
The construction outside has been completed, and the two-meter-high wall has also been completed.
The father and daughter had not been shopping for a while when Su Xiaofang came over with Wang Xiang, who looked excited.
Su Qiuyi repeated to Wang Xiang what she had just said to her aunt.
Wang Xiang nodded vigorously without hesitation.
Where can I find such a good job?
Eight hundred coins a month was something he couldn't even imagine.
Even in this town, how many jobs like this can be found?
He couldn't find it either. Without some connections or skills, how could he find such a job?
"Okay, then it's settled. I'll deliver the fodder this afternoon! Let your aunt teach you how to milk the cows, and then our carriage will come and go and take them away!"
Su Qiuyi said yes, and made a note in his mind that a wooden barrel had to be sent over, as the milk had to be packed in a wooden barrel.
The matter was resolved and there was no time to stay any longer, so the father and daughter drove their carriage towards Qinghe Town.
On the way, Su Qiuyi handed the task of buying fodder to her father and gave him ten taels of silver.
I have to be busy when I get home and don't have time to deal with these things.
Su Laosan took the job, sent his daughter home and left.
Su Qiuyi was just thinking about asking Bai Xiaojing to get some more sugar, but before she could send her a message, her younger sister came in and called her.
"Sister, Brother Chu is looking for you! He's outside!"
Su Qiuyi was surprised. How could this person be at home in broad daylight? Isn't he a mysterious person who is hard to find?
I had to put the matter of the sugar aside for the time being, agreed and went out.
Chu Mingxiao was standing in the yard. When he saw her come out, he waved.
Su Qiuyi walked forward and asked, "What's wrong? What do you want from me?"
She really couldn't guess what was going on.
Chu Mingxiao said, "Tomorrow... I have to leave!"
Su Qiuyi looked up in surprise, "Is the problem solved?"
"We'll be taking action tonight! So I'm telling you in advance that I might not come back here before I leave! So as not to bring you any danger!"
"Have everything been arranged? Don't you want the food and fodder?" Su Qiuyi didn't know much. She only knew that Chu Mingxiao said that the food and fodder could not be taken back and could not be kept.
"I don't know. I've made two preparations. If I can't get it, it will be ruined!"
"Got it! I wish you all the best! Have a safe trip! Kill that thief smoothly! Especially that bearded guy!"
She hated the bearded man and felt pain all over her body just thinking about him.
I still feel the feeling of falling off a running carriage.
Chu Mingxiao nodded, "Yes!"
He took out a stack of banknotes from his bosom and handed them to Su Qiuyi, "Here are two thousand li banknotes, take them first! I will send some more when I return to Beijing! This is all I can get for now! But don't worry, there will be more later!"
He knew that what the little girl had taken out was far more valuable than this, and it also helped him a lot, but it was not convenient for him to mobilize a large amount of silver at the moment.
"Enough, enough! No need to send me any more!" Su Qiuyi took the banknote and the corners of his mouth cracked.
This is equivalent to two million in modern times, which is enough.
She felt that she had made a fortune, and she still had the sixteen cows of various sizes.
"Oh yeah! I have something for you, just wait a minute!"
After a careful calculation, she felt that she had earned too much and felt guilty, thinking about the sword she had asked Bai Xiaojing to buy for her.
Take this opportunity to give it away!
Without waiting for Chu Mingxiao to say anything, he ran into the house. After a while, he came out with a sword and a small package.
Under Chu Mingxiao's surprised gaze, he walked up to him and thrust the sword in front of him.
"Take this. I saw you liked it before, and this sword is really good, so I'll give it to you!"
"Here are some medicines. You get hurt easily. These are life-saving items. Be sure to take them!"
"By the way, you must use explosives as I tell you! Don't be careless, it can be fatal!"
Su Qiuyi had already told him some precautions before, and he was still worried, so he reminded him again.
Chu Mingxiao held the sword in his hand, and was so excited that he wanted to jump up, but then he thought that he shouldn't take it.
"Keep this sword for your own protection! I have your magic medicine, which is enough for me!"
Although he couldn't let go of the sword, he felt that the little girl needed it more.
Su Qiuyi patted Chu Mingxiao's arm, pointed at the largest gem on the hilt of the sword and said, "You are so stupid. Look here. My sword has a ruby on it! And this one has a sapphire! They are not the same!"
"This...you have two swords?" Chu Mingxiao looked at Su Qiuyi in disbelief, who had a calm expression on his face.
