Koi baby helps his mother farm and becomes the richest man
Chapter 146 Divide the prey
Zhao Hu suggested: "Since we don't have anything to do right now, why not just renovate the house?"
Most of the villagers in Tongshu Village have the idea of building a house. They have some money and are no longer short of food. Mr. Zhou can also promise to provide bricks and tiles for free. Shouldn't they seize this great opportunity?
So Feng Gang and others failed to leave again.
The brick kiln was opened, but even with the guidance of a veteran craftsman, one kiln was still wasted.
These waste bricks were used to pave the road.
Starting from the second kiln, the quality of bricks and tiles stabilized.
The blueprints of the new houses were drawn by Zhang Jinzhi. The layout of each household was similar, except for the number of rooms. But without exception, they were much larger than before.
Some families even bought new furniture, or at least repainted the house. After all, it doesn’t look good to have old furniture in a new house!
The Zhao family's house is slightly different. It is built with two courtyards. The first courtyard is used for growing vegetables, raising chickens and sheep, and Zhao Hu's house is also here; the foundation of the second courtyard is slightly raised and used for living. There is a moon-shaped door in the middle of the second courtyard. The master bedroom is on the east side and the guest bedroom is on the west side.
There is a flower bed in the yard and many flowers are planted.
However, no one in the village was jealous of this. They all knew that the Zhao family could get a share of the money from the rabbit farm. In addition, they could also find mountain products from the mountains and ask Mr. Zhou to help them exchange them for money. It was normal for them to have some wealth.
This is really something I can't envy. Others also go into the mountains, but at most they can only dig up some wild vegetables. It's impossible for me to be like them.
Grandma Wang said it well. The Zhao family is in a bad mood right now. It is right to make friends with such people. You can also benefit from them. If you have conflicts with them, you might end up in trouble!
Qin Ying sorted out the medicinal herbs and asked Zhao Hu and others to go to the town to sell a batch of them. They actually got two taels of silver in exchange. This was obtained through a clear route in Tongshu Village.
At that moment, many people came to ask Qin Ying how to identify medicinal herbs.
Qin Ying tells everyone she knows everything and even gives people samples that she has picked and dried herself.
But what does it matter? Even if they knew how to pick the herbs, where to pick them, and how to dry them, they just couldn’t find herbs of the same quality!
Seeing that Qin Ying had opened up another piece of wasteland to plant medicinal herbs, the thoughtful woman came over and offered to help, "Yingzi, you are very busy every day. I will help you do more work so that you can have some free time.
"We're from the same village, so I won't ask for favors from you. I'll just consider it as learning some skills from you!"
Qin Ying thought about it for a moment and agreed. After all, she was really busy.
Of course, she would not let the people who came to help work for free. If they refused to take anything else, she would prepare some common medicinal herbs as gifts. For example, if someone had a headache, fever, inflammation, toothache, etc., they could take them to get better faster.
Feng Gang and others waited until the autumn sowing was over before leaving. When they left, everyone looked dark and thin.
Thanks to their help, this year's autumn harvest went very smoothly. After the wheat seeds were planted and watered, the villagers discussed going into the mountains. This is the perfect time to harvest mountain products.
Zhou Yu also followed them into the mountains. Since An An stuck to him, it was natural for him to team up with the Zhao family.
Xu Xia wanted close protection, so he followed as well.
This time, Zhang Jinzhi said nothing and stayed behind to look after the house. He formed a team with Uncle Chen Jiu. Wang Tiezhu and Wang Ergou came to help, and there were also two yamen runners following them.
An An gave his own people enough Koi bonuses and also took care of others to ensure that no one would return empty-handed.
The result was that the Zhao family first found a persimmon forest full of fruits. The red persimmons hung on the branches like small lanterns, and sparrows flew over from time to time to peck at them. At first glance, it looked like a painting.
With so many persimmons, their family naturally couldn't pick them all, so they called the villagers to come over.
Soon, many people's backpacks were full, so they had to send a batch back first.
These persimmons are stored in the cellar and are very good for making frozen persimmons in the winter, or they can be made directly into persimmon cakes, which are also delicious.
It took a whole day to pick most of the persimmons in this forest, and the rest will be kept for feeding the birds.
Seeing that it was getting late, Uncle Chen Jiu forced everyone to go down the mountain. On the way, Qin Ying discovered another large area of mushrooms.
The villagers didn't go to pick them. The Zhao family picked two large baskets and gave one basket to Zhou Yu.
Qin Ying walked slowly on the road and was able to collect some herbs from time to time.
Zhou Qi and Zhou Mian did not come with them. They stayed at home to cook. This was agreed with Zhang Jinzhi, and they would be replaced the next day.
By the time everyone got home, the meal was already ready. Although it was a simple big pot of stew with steamed buns made from two-grain flour and corn soup, everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
On the second day, Zhou Qi and Zhou Mian went up the mountain together and naturally formed a team with the Zhao family.
Since they couldn't do heavy work, they helped pick herbs, mushrooms, and pack them into baskets.
On this day, the Zhao family again discovered a chestnut forest, mixed with many hazelnuts and pecans.
In view of the good harvest yesterday, the villagers brought many sacks up that day. All the sacks were filled and sent down the mountain first.
Zhao Hu found a roe deer at the edge of the woods, which was looking out to see what was happening. He chased it, but the roe deer turned around and ran away. After a few steps, it stopped and looked back.
Zhao Hu was amused. He walked over slowly and took advantage of the roe deer's unpreparedness to grab its neck and throw it to the ground. He tied it with the hemp rope he carried with him and brought it back.
The villagers were drooling with envy.
Zhou Mian didn't understand and asked quietly, "Sister Qin, this deer..."
"We call this kind of deer roe deer here," Qin Ying explained the characteristics of roe deer in a soft voice, and then said, "Roe deer meat is very delicious. In the past, when there was no drought, the villagers would go hunting in the mountains, and roe deer were the easiest to hunt.
"I just didn't expect to see roe deer in the mountains so soon."
Zhou Mian nodded in understanding. No wonder so many people were drooling. In the past few years, no one had eaten meat.
Uncle Chen Jiu said to his fellow villagers cheerfully, "This is good news! Roe deer usually appear in groups. Let's spread out and look around. What if we can still find one?"
"This roe deer belongs to the Zhao family. We can't get our hands on it. If we find it again, we can split it up!"
The villagers cheered loudly and dispersed in groups.
In the end, Zhou Yu and Zhao Hu each caught a roe deer, and no one found anything else.
Aunt Zhao said that she would also give the one from her home to share equally with her fellow villagers.
Uncle Chen Jiu hurriedly said, "How could that be! Others didn't contribute anything, so logically they shouldn't get a share. But we're just being shameless because of your family's kindness."
The villagers expressed their agreement.
Aunt Zhao refused to give in, so Uncle Chen Jiu said, "Well, let's do this. I'll give your family half a roe deer first, and the remaining two and a half will be divided equally among the villagers. You can come too."
Aunt Zhao then stopped talking, and the villagers were very happy and grateful.
Some people also said, isn’t this taking advantage of Lord Zhou in vain?
