Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

The house was almost finished, and Liu Caixia returned to the village with lots of things.

Liu's mother brought people from the village to help cook, and Liu Caixia naturally joined in. Time passed quickly as they chatted and gossiped.

The three daughters-in-law of the Wan family went back together to move things, and Aunt Wan began to prepare the ingredients for cooking.

The oil, salt and seasonings were prepared in advance by Liu's father, all in small earthenware jars.

Aunt Liu placed everything on the clean stove.

He added some firewood into the stove.

Aunt Wan’s youngest daughter is sixteen years old this year. Her name is Wan Xiaoxiao. She has already been engaged this year and will get married in the early spring of next year. The man she is looking for is a young man from the village.

As Aunt Wan's youngest daughter, she was definitely loved more. She found an honest and hardworking farmer in the village whose family conditions were neither good nor bad, so she would not be bullied or suffer if she married him.

With the help of Aunt Wan and her family, the meal was ready soon.

The multi-grain steamed buns that had been steamed in advance were all put in a large colander, the stewed vegetables were cut and put in a large bowl, and a bowl of fried cabbage with oil residue was also fried. The quantity was not much, but the portion was sufficient.

Liu Caixia considered the family situation. Aunt Wan had borrowed two large tables and moved in some benches, but there were too many people. So she came up with an idea, which was to adopt a self-service model.

Each person was given a pair of chopsticks and a bowl, and lined up to get food. The bowl was filled with half cabbage and half braised meat. Then each person was given four grain buns, two for women and half-grown children, and one for children. This ensured that everyone had enough to eat.

Liu Caixia watched as those people were reluctant to eat the food they were given. She guessed that it was not easy to eat braised meat now, so they all wanted to save some and take it back for those who were not at home.

The people who were working, the village chief, Aunt Wan, and a few families who lived closer to the school were all there. The others didn't dare to come for the banquet. They just watched the fun from outside for a while, picked up some candies and snacks thrown down, and then left.

Besides, it was already very rare to get a little bargain. If everyone came to the feast, even if they were just giving away two eggs, it would not be appropriate for a family to come, as most of the villagers were still very simple.

Liu Caixia watched these people's actions and talked to her father, Liu's father, about it. Liu's father looked at the remaining space on the roof and saw that there was not much work left in the afternoon, so these people could save some food rations.

As long as he has the energy to finish the rest of the work in the afternoon, there is no need for him to be so harsh.

"Forget it, if they want to stay, then they can. There's not much work to do this afternoon, so it's fine as long as it doesn't interfere with our work. We should be able to seal up the roof soon this afternoon. I've built kangs in all the rooms, so they can be used as bunk beds even if they don't need to be heated. We've also turned on the fire in the kitchen, so the house is warm now. We can officially move in."

"Yes, I finally have my own home. I don't know how Lin Weizhong and his family are doing. They should have gone to Shanyuan County. I don't know if they have contacted Wei Honglian and her sister. Has Aunt Tian asked you about this?"

Father Liu nodded and said, "Auntie Tian asked once, but I don't know the situation, so I can only ask her to wait for two days. According to the plan, Lin Weizhong and his team should be here tomorrow. Auntie Tian is a hard-working person. She is the main force in the house cleaning and other things. We men are not as meticulous as she is in our work. We are careless about many things. It is thanks to her that the house can be kept so tidy."

"That's right. I have a good eye for your daughter. If it's someone who is sneaky and has bad character, I won't make a move."

"You're so proud of me when I praise you. How's your business going?"

"Dad, don't worry, my business is going well. When I'm done with this, you can assign more people to me. I'm going to take Auntie Tian with me, and give me two people. I'm going to open a big shop and make spicy hot pot. It's cold now, and stir-fried dishes get cold easily. If I make spicy hot pot, and also some noodles, wontons, and dumplings, everyone who comes to eat can have soup and water to eat hot, and the business will definitely be better than the braised pork and kimchi business here."

"Sure. Once the business is established, I will have people pick up vegetables for you in this village and some nearby villages and deliver them to you every day. This way you will save a lot of money on buying vegetables and you will have a fixed source of goods."

Liu Caixia also took a steamed bun and ate it, saying, "I thought so too. Even if you didn't say it, I would have said it. Before, we also bought vegetables directly from the vendors who came into the city.

However, when the quantity increases in the future, we must find more sources of goods. It is best to sign an order contract with the surrounding villages, talk to the village chief, ask the village chief to help collect the goods, and then pay the village chief a little middleman fee. This is more secure. "

"Okay, I'll get it done for you. As for meat, we can only order it from the surrounding villages, and the quantity will definitely not be large. After the spring, we will start raising chickens, ducks, pigs and fish ourselves. By then, we will also open another agricultural product shop in the county town. By the way, we will also supply your restaurant and shop. After it stabilizes, we will slowly expand the scale of the business."

Auntie Tian and Auntie Wan helped to distribute all the dishes. They were all used to farm work and were very good at distributing dishes. The remaining dishes were just enough for them to eat. No matter how much the people who got the dishes in front ate, they could not add more dishes. However, if they had finished eating the steamed buns on the spot and still wanted to eat more, they could go and get more. Of course, the people behind could only eat one by one.

Father Liu is not a saint. He can treat these people well, but he doesn't want them to take things home without restraint. It would be bad if it fostered their greed.

Even so, the workers and those who came to celebrate the raising of the beams were all satisfied with the food. After all, Father Liu and his people were not well off at the time, and it was a very good treat for the villagers to be able to eat meat and steamed buns.

The people who were working finished their meals quickly. Some of them kept some of the food they were given. Some people had bigger appetites and ate a full meal.

After finishing their meal, several families nearby also came over under the leadership of the village chief to say goodbye to Liu's father and Liu Caixia. These neighboring families all brought their children with them, but they were all boys.

"Brother Liu, we are neighbors from now on. If you have any problems, just come to our house and let us know." The first person to speak was Wan Zhang from the private school. He came with his wife, the woman he had seen when he passed by before.

Father Liu and Liu Caixia immediately exchanged pleasantries: "Mr. Wan, you are too polite. I will take more care of our son's studies in the future."

"No, no, I am just trying to educate the children and will do my best."

Several families nearby came to say goodbye one by one...
