Chapter 151 I Want to Do Business with You

The meal was eaten up completely without leaving anything behind, even the soup was scooped out and eaten with rice.

After dinner, Sang Yongjing was resting at the table, rubbing his stomach. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he asked, "Yu'er, what are we going to do tomorrow?"

Life is different nowadays. A family of six needs a lot of money just for food every day. We can’t just sit back and enjoy the food, so we have to move around.

After the tempering of time, this man who was originally the most cowardly and heartless began to mature gradually and learned to worry about family matters.

Fortunately, Sang Yu had already made plans for this. She propped her chin with one hand and said nonchalantly, "There are really a lot of things to do at home right now, but there's no rush. I can just take my time and do them."

"The first thing is naturally the reed flowers we picked today. We have to hang them under the eaves to dry. Once they are completely dry, we can take them down and make them into quilt cores."

"Secondly, the land in front of the pavilion needs to be opened up as soon as possible. If the weather gets colder later, the rapeseed may not germinate."

"In the end, I had to set up another pot outside in the kitchen. Two pots were not enough for me."

Generally speaking, Sang Yu doesn't like to lay everything out.

She prefers to make plans in her mind and then let others work according to her plans, slowly achieving her goals and ensuring that everything is under her control.

But maybe now she can reveal some of it appropriately and let her family participate.

She nodded as she spoke, and even after she finished, she still felt something was wrong: "Eh? Yu'er, aren't we going to find a way to make money?"

She said a lot of things, but to sum it up, they were all about family matters. Does that mean she won't go out and earn money during this period?

Sang Yu shook her head slightly: "Of course we have to earn money. For example, we can't finish eating those wild ducks. Let's take two to the city to sell them tomorrow."

"Ah? Can't we raise it?" It was Sang Xinghao who spoke. He was still as loving as ever towards small animals. "Raise it like a fawn, wait until it grows up and then kill it and eat it."

"...No." Sang Yu was speechless for a moment. How could she explain that the wild duck was already mature and would not grow up anymore?

If you want to tame these wild ducks and let them lay eggs and hatch eggs in an endless cycle, it will be even more impossible.

Firstly, there was the issue of space. Ducks needed water to live in. She couldn't just raise them in a stream, because they might get stolen any day.

Secondly, vegetables and protein are essential for wild ducks. People are still worried about food, so how can they have extra food to raise ducks?

Considering both factors, it is much more cost-effective to kill them directly for meat or sell them for money than to raise them.

After considering her wording, she explained to him as tactfully as possible: "These wild ducks can only grow this big now. They can't grow any bigger."

"Oh, never mind."

Sang Xinghao lowered his head somewhat disappointedly. He had thought that these animals could grow indefinitely and eventually become a particularly large wild duck that could be eaten in one meal.

"Two ducks won't sell for much, right?" Sang Yongjing asked again.

Sang Yu nodded gently: "Yes, so this part of the money will be used as my starting capital. I will buy some vegetables and try to make some snacks to see if I can make money."

If she had been hesitating before whether to start this plan immediately, the few wild ducks she caught unexpectedly today were like a free admission ticket to her.

Now she can try it with confidence, even if she fails, it doesn't matter, it won't cause any burden to her family.

"Aren't those two not enough? Let's get two more." Mrs. Shi, who had been listening quietly without saying anything, suddenly spoke.

Sang Yongjing also echoed: "Yes, yes, your grandmother is right. How much can two sell for? It's not enough for you to start a business. Take two more."

"Then..." Sang Yu still wanted to refuse.

The meat of wild duck is firm and has a great taste. Looking at the dishes that were eaten clean tonight, it is clear that the whole family likes it. She wants to save some for home.

Sang Yongjing made the decision immediately: "Don't bother with this or that, just take four. Dad may not be good at business, but he knows that the more capital a business has, the better."

"Okay!" After a little consideration, Sang Yu agreed. With more money, she could buy more ingredients. Not to mention how much money she could make, at least she shouldn't lose money.

By the light of the oil lamp on the table, the family was busy tying up all the reed stalks and hanging them upside down under the eaves using ladders.

The next morning, Sang Yu got up from bed as soon as the roosters crowed. After having breakfast, he took Sang Xingjia out of the village.

When they crossed the canyon and reached the official road, Sang Xingjia dared to ask the question in his heart: "Little sister, didn't you say yesterday that you would bring four to sell? Why did you only bring two today?"

"Selling them for money would earn me too little. I can earn double or even triple the money by keeping two."

When saying this, Sang Yu's face was full of confidence, which made Sang Xingjia a little stunned for a moment.

It seems like since some day, my little sister's smile is no longer as gentle and reserved as before.

But now she is like this, full of confidence and determination, as if there is nothing in the world that she can't do.

Sang Yu waved her hand in front of his eyes: "What? Are you scared by my bold words?"

He came back to his senses: "No, I believe my little sister can definitely do it."

"That's right." Sang Yu nodded with satisfaction and continued walking forward with his hands behind his back.

It was still the same market that I went to last time. Sang Yu felt that this market was much better than the other markets in West City in terms of location and flow of people. It was more convenient and faster to buy or sell things.

After paying the commercial tax in the small house at the entrance of the market town, the two men came to Area C with the sign.

They arrived at a certain time, but the front row of Area C was already full.

Sang Xingjia was about to look for the stall corresponding to the sign in his hand, but was stopped by Sang Yu.

"Brother, wait a minute, I'll try to see if I can sell it directly."

Sell ​​it directly? What does that mean? Before Sang Xingjia could react, he saw Sang Yu pulling him towards the stall of a burly hunter.

Since entering Area C, Sang Yu has been observing the vendors around him, and the person in front of him is certainly not a random pick.

She stood in front of the stall with a smile on her face, her eyes sweeping over the two cages of living creatures in front of her and the pile of tanned rabbit fur next to them.

Then he slowly said: "Stall owner, I want to do business with you."

The hunter behind the stall was a little confused by her incoherent words and asked with a frown, "What do you want to buy?"

"No, I want to sell you something."

Sang Yu gave Sang Xingjia a wink. He was worried that the strong man in front of him might suddenly attack and hurt someone, but he still obediently put down the backpack, lifted the leaves covering it, revealing two mallards inside.
