Traveling through the farm, I just want to earn money by farming

Chapter 67 1 Of course I have to take care of my family

Soon, the two of them came over, along with Chen's father. Changshui had no work recently, so he came to the workshop to help out.

"Slow down, you old man. There's a dog chasing you." Second grandmother scolded Second grandfather in a bad mood, but Second grandfather was not angry.

"Qing Ning, what's the matter that you asked Second Grandfather to call me here?"

His father called him anxiously and left without waiting for him to ask what was going on.

"Well, the Second Master and the Second Mistress came to me to discuss the stall for the Spring Banquet. I thought that besides being good at building houses, Uncle Changshui is also good at carpentry, so I had an idea, so the Second Master called you over."

Changshui was delighted when he heard this and took two steps forward to stand in front of Qingning. Father Chen saw his silly brother's expression and pointed to a stool for him to sit down and talk.

"Look, uncle, make some building blocks, tangrams, house models, and small wooden cars. Children will love these things, and adults can play with these tangrams and house models, too. If you can really make them, not only will they be a big hit at this spring banquet, but I'm afraid you'll have a steady stream of people coming to you for orders in the future."

When they heard this, they were curious and shocked. They were curious because although they didn't know what Qingning was talking about, just listening to it sounded novel and interesting. They were shocked because she gave them these ways to make money so easily, how could they dare to accept them?

"Qing Ning, I know these things are correct as soon as I hear them, but I dare not take them from you for free. If I have a bad heart and keep silent, what will happen?" Chen Changshui said sincerely.

Moreover, once you really start this business, you can't just rely on these few things to make a fortune. There are many talented people who will soon learn from them. I have to say that Chen Changshui has a good idea and he still has some knowledge.

"Yes, yes," the Second Master and the Second Wife also followed Chen Changshui and echoed.

"Uncle, you make the food for this spring banquet first and build up a reputation. When someone places an order later, we can split the profits 20-80, okay?"

Qing Ning had already thought of a cooperation plan in her mind and was waiting to see the results after the Spring Banquet.

"Okay, I'll make it first for this spring banquet. If someone takes a fancy to it and places an order, we'll officially sign a document. But it can't be 280%, it has to be 5050." Chen Changshui said honestly. This idea and connection were all given by Qingning, and he couldn't let her suffer any loss.

"Then how about 37 or 46? My family still has an income from the workshop. Besides, you are my father too."

It is obvious at this point that Qingning just wants to help their family.

"Ning girl, just do as your second uncle says. It's a 50-50 split. Otherwise, after we finish the work for the Spring Banquet, we won't do it anymore." Second Grandpa made up his mind and refused to give in.

Qing Ning looked at her father and wanted to ask him what he meant.

Father Chen took in the look his daughter gave him, clearly understanding: "Qing Ning, just do as your uncle and the others say."

Seeing that her father also agreed with Second Master and the others' suggestion, Qing Ning stopped talking. Suddenly, she thought of something and said, "Second Master, Second Uncle, this is Uncle Yu's craftsmanship." Qing Ning gave a thumbs-up and continued, "Second Uncle, you can work with Uncle Yu. I'll give Uncle Yu 20% of the profits."

"No, you don't have to give 20%. We will give him 20%." Chen Changshui immediately rejected Qingning's suggestion of giving 20%.

"Uncle Er, don't think I'm exaggerating Uncle San's craftsmanship. You'll know once you see the mold. Besides, it was my wish to let Uncle San join. I can't let you leave."

"I believe your judgment is correct. If you contribute 10% and I contribute 20%, we won't let Brother Yu San lose money."

Qing Ning was about to speak when she was interrupted by the Second Master: "Alright, let's do as Chang Shui says. If Qing Ning says anything more, the Second Master will be angry."

The second master pretended to be angry, and Qing Ning gave up after seeing this.

She then took out a pen and paper and sketched out the building blocks and tangram patterns. As for the house model and the small wooden car, she only drew the general outlines; she wasn't yet capable of detailing the specific structure, size, and modules. Uncle Chen was also a bit stumped. How big should it be? It was similar to building a house, but with wooden models, the details were much more detailed. Any more or less and it might not work.

"Don't worry about it, you two. Second brother, go find Brother Yu San later, and you can discuss and draw it together." Seeing that the two men were frowning, Father Chen made a very sincere suggestion.

"Yes, find Uncle San." Qing Ning's eyes lit up. It was a clear way.

Qing Ning told her uncle the quantity. She also drew a few cute cartoon animals—not great, but recognizable enough—to use for the stall during the Spring Festival. Uncle Chen and his family were overjoyed to receive the drawings, thanking him profusely before hurriedly returning to chop wood.

Seeing that it was getting late, it was time to prepare dinner. Father Chen, seeing that everyone else was busy, helped Qing Ning with the cooking. Thinking that Qing Wu, Qing Bai, and Mr. Wu were still studying in their room, he lit two candles and brought them in. He couldn't hurt his eyes; he didn't have any glasses anymore.

When dinner was almost ready, the family members came back one after another. Those who had dinner went home, and the younger ones went back to their rooms to do their homework.

----------------

"Husband, I want to go back to my parents' home to see my parents, and then go see my younger sister." After dinner, the adults washed up and went to bed. Tan thought that she had not been back to see her parents since the New Year, so she wanted to go home to see them.

"Well, they can handle the work at the workshop. I'll weed the fields and backyard tomorrow, and then have Mom plant the new vegetables. I'll go back with you the day after tomorrow." Tan's parents' home was far away, and she rarely went back except during festivals. It took three hours to walk there, and another two hours by ox cart.

"This time when I go back, I want to bring my sister over and let her help in the workshop or with Sister Ke, so that she doesn't have to go back and be bullied by her mother-in-law." Thinking of her sister's life, Tan couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say. But where are we going to live after we get here? You and she will share a room, and I'll put up some wooden boards in the kitchen." He thought that the small mud house at home was not big enough, and there would be no place for anyone to sleep.

"I'm sorry, my husband."

"There's nothing to be wronged about. As long as it's your business, there's nothing to be wronged about."

The two have been married for more than ten years and their relationship has always been good. Chen Changjiang has always cared about Tan.
