Chapter 248 Why not announce it to the world and recruit people to wear warm clothes?

On the second floor, Jiusu shouted with a loud speaker: "Who has geese for sale?"

Almost everyone on the first floor raised their hands.

Almost every household has geese.

Aunt Wang asked, "Boss, what do you want the goose for?"

Jiusu said, "The down jackets you are wearing are actually filled with goose and duck down. A few days ago, soldiers from the border came and they had no warm clothes. I want to buy some geese and ducks and make some down jackets to send to them."

They had all seen those soldiers.

There are patches all over the body.

Aunt Wang said, "Master, I have two of them. I don't want any money. Just think of it as my contribution to the soldiers at the border."

Others agreed.

Jiusu felt something strange in her heart, and she said with emotion: "I understand your kindness, but it's not easy to raise them, you should give me some money."

Chen Linghua and Jiusu looked at each other, and she raised her hand and said.

"If you have geese and ducks at home, come to my place to count them."

She discussed with the villagers in a low voice, and no one wanted the money. In their minds, when doing good deeds, they should not care about gains and losses or the amount of benefits.

One or two geese and ducks are nothing.

The few families who raised ducks and geese for their livelihood looked embarrassed.

Chen Linghua said: "The boss will not force you to do anything. We all understand you. One or two are generous."

They rubbed their hands and said, "We'll pay you at cost price."

"Don't feel burdened. No one's livestock is blown by the wind. The boss wants you to give him money. If you really feel bad, just give him one or two more geese and ducks." Chen Linghua nodded. "Write down the number and I'll report it to the boss."

The duck farmer said, "Well, if the family wasn't poor, who wouldn't want to donate everything?"

The duck farmer said, "I don't make any money all year round, so it's enough not to lose money."

Aunt Wang smiled and comforted them, "Don't think too much, you two. We have a duck at home, and it's okay to give it away. You are the ones who eat, and you are kind enough to offer it at such a low price."

Those who raise geese and ducks were all moved after hearing this.

An hour later, the ox cart was full of geese and ducks.

Jiusu transported the things to Xiu's house and listened to the shouting sounds that reached the sky.

Xiuying looked at the cartloads of geese and ducks, patted her chest, and said in shock, "I am pregnant, but I don't need to eat so much. I can't finish eating even if I give birth to seven or eight children."

Seven or eight children?

Xiong Che's eyes lit up as he looked at the woman in his arms, "Are you really giving birth?"

"Go to hell." Xiuying slapped his chest in annoyance, and then asked, "What's going on?"

Jiusu said: "I want to cooperate with you on down jackets. I won't make money, but I won't lose anything."

Xiuying invited her into the house, stroked her slightly bulging belly, and said with a smile: "I like to do business that is not against conscience. You tell me, I will do this business with you."

Jiusu said: "Remember the down jacket I gave you? The duck and goose down fillings are very warm. I want to do something for the soldiers."

Xiuying said: "Jinxiu Pavilion is willing to do this good deed."

After returning home, Jiang Jing learned about this.

He waved the snow off his sleeves, knocked on the door and entered the study, looking at the person who was busy drawing the design. Looking at her, his heart seemed to be filled with something.

He sat next to her and brought her a cup of hot tea.

"I heard that you cooperated with the boss of Jinxiu Pavilion on down jackets?"

"Yeah." Jiusu rubbed his stiff waist, took a sip of tea and said, "Where did you hear that?"

Jiang Jing smiled and said, "Master Jiu brought cart after cart of geese and ducks. Everyone in Suming County knows about it. They say you like to eat geese and ducks."

"Huh?" Jiusu tilted his head and spread his hands helplessly, "You did remind me that the remaining geese and ducks can be sold to Shopkeeper Fang. The roast duck and goose are very delicious."

Isn’t it wonderful to enjoy the snow and eat roast duck in the winter?

As he touched his hungry stomach, he seemed to smell the fragrance of the chicken skin.

Jiang Jing took the white jade cup away, fearing that the painstaking efforts of his beloved would be wet. Ah Su always had his own ideas. He said, "There are so many soldiers. I'm afraid it will be difficult for each of them to paint one by summer."

Jiusu sighed, held his chin in his hand and said, "You are good at discouraging people."

"Don't be upset, young lady. Jiang is here to offer some advice." Jiang Jing chuckled twice. Seeing her raise her eyebrows, he didn't keep her in suspense. "Why don't you announce it to the world and recruit people to buy warm clothes?"

Hearing this, Jiusu's slightly frowned brows relaxed.

"I made the method of making down jackets public so that everyone can make clothes for the soldiers together."

Jiang Jing placed his hand on her brow, feeling happy that he could do his part: "This matter will surely spread throughout the streets and alleys. I will send a pigeon to Shengjing to deliver the letter. If the emperor praises it, the whole world will surely follow suit."

Jiusu hooked her arms around his shoulders, her eyes sparkling.

"Ajing, you're awesome. I'll give you half of the roast duck when the time comes." She rolled up the drawing and skipped away.

In the afternoon, a large box was placed in front of the factory, hot pot restaurant, Fangxing Building and Huating Academy, with instructions for making down jackets posted on the box.

They all stopped.

The store also launched promotions.

A down jacket can be exchanged for coupons for dishes at a hot pot restaurant or Fangxinglou; it can also be used as a donation to reduce the tuition fees of the academy. In short, who doesn't want to make money and do good deeds at the same time?

When Yuan Ling has free time from work in the store, she sews down jackets.

On days off, I return home and live in a newly built cement house. Outsiders may say it is not perfect, but for someone who may freeze to death every year, there is nothing to complain about.

Aunt Yuan rubbed her presbyopic eyes and sighed, "If only I had eight hands."

Yuan Ling took a small stool, sat next to her mother, and looked at the sunlight coming through the glass.

She said, "Mom, don't get too tired. I guess everyone in the city will help. In a few days, the box will be filled with down jackets. Anyway, this room is really warm."

Aunt Yuan nodded and said happily.

"A capable person has emerged in the village, and we have benefited from it."

Then she looked at her daughter.

"I am old and cannot accompany you for the rest of your life. If you can meet someone who understands you, go for it bravely. But I dare not let you marry far away. It is better to find a live-in son-in-law."

Once upon a time, their family was poor.

There are no conditions to recruit a live-in son-in-law.

But it exists now.

Yuan Ling couldn't help but feel sick when she thought of that terrible man. She waved her hands and said, "Mom, please don't say that. I guess I'll never be with a man again in this life."

Aunt Yuan said distressedly: "Forget it, if you can make money, I won't worry about it."

"Don't worry about me, everything that happened before will be fine." Yuan Ling thought, even if she had to look for someone, she would look for a man who was upright and not timid.

At the hour of You, it is getting dark.

Yuan Ling packed her things and braved the wind and snow to board the last ox cart back to town. Seeing that there were few people on the cart, she paid five copper coins.

"Uncle, go back quickly and buy something to fill your stomach."

"Thank you very much." The old man driving the ox cart was from the same village. His son and daughter-in-law died last winter, leaving behind a frail grandson.

Yuan Ling smiled and said they were all from the same village.

It was almost dark. She gathered her clothes and walked through the dark alley. Suddenly, she felt someone following her. She took a deep breath and quickened her pace.

But that man was faster.

She was blocked against the wall, "Who!?"
