The chicks that they had asked the villagers to hatch had already hatched in March and were released into the farm.
Chunxiao asked Wang Shiwen and the others to make a simple fence with cotton branches in the open space. After raising them for three or four months, they could let them out to move around.
The restaurant has been helping Chunxiao collect eggshells. Huang Minghe had asked her before what she was collecting the eggshells for, but knowing that she was going to use them as fertilizer, he didn't say much.
In the past few days, Chunxiao and her father have been thinking about what to buy for Huang Minghe after they divide the money this time. After all, he has helped so much, and the key is that he is much richer than them, and he is not interested in the things they are willing to buy. Finally, Chunxiao decided to add some fresh dishes for him, which doesn't cost any money.
She made them happy and happy. They killed 10 chickens, cleaned the chicken feet, chicken wings and chicken gizzards and stewed them in a pot.
The taste of these braised chickens was no worse than the original ones. He kept two of the remaining chickens for himself, gave two each to Dashan and Daha's family, and took the remaining four to the farm to improve their meals.
The next day she went to the restaurant with Yan Bingfa.
Huang Minghe frowned slightly when he saw the dishes they brought out, "Ms. Yan, are you going to talk about business again?" Forget about the wings, how can you eat these chicken feet?
"No, Mr. Huang, I came here today with my father to thank you. Please ask the kitchen to steam this cold food so you can taste it first!"
Huang Minghe looked disgusted, but he figured since he was being asked to try it, it must be something famous. Remembering the pig intestines from before, he called a waiter to heat it up. "Are you thinking of adding a new item to this braised dish?"
Chunxiao nodded, "Yes, but it's you, not me. I want to tell you that the chicken wings, chicken feet, and chicken gizzards can be braised. If you think it's feasible, you can add these items." There are no pickled peppers here, otherwise these chicken feet would be a really good thing.
Huang Minghe smiled. "I thought you wanted to sell these things to me, but it turns out you wanted to help me expand my food supply. Thank you very much, thank you very much!"
"Boss Huang, we should thank you." Yan Bingfa walked up to him and bowed. "Thank you for your help before."
"Miss Yan always thanks me for this every time we meet. There's no need to be so polite. I won't mention it again in the future."
The waiter quickly heated up the food and brought it over. Huang Minghe picked a chicken drumstick and asked the waiter next to him to try the chicken feet. However, the chicken feet turned into broken bones in the waiter's hand in a short while. "Boss, these chicken feet are delicious."
Huang Minghe was skeptical. He put down the chicken leg, picked up the chicken feet and took a small bite. Unexpectedly, it was soft and tasty. He couldn't help but take two more bites, and finally finished the whole chicken feet.
"I didn't expect that braised chicken feet are so delicious. Before, I would never have thought of braising chicken feet. But if we do it this way, then many things can be braised."
"A lot of things can be braised, but some taste good when braised, while others don't. You have to try it."
"Thank you so much for Miss Yan's suggestion today. Would you like to supply these items in the future and give the same price?"
"No, these things are not easy to collect. Your restaurant probably uses a lot of ingredients every day. You have the recipe and the materials, so it won't be a problem for you to make them yourself."
Huang Minghe finally believed that they were truly just thanking him for the suggestion. He returned the greeting and said, "Thank you very much. I was originally planning to open a few more stores, but the current situation is so unpredictable that it's not easy to rush in. The most important thing is to protect my own little piece of land first."
"Boss Huang is right. It's the same for everyone."
After leaving the restaurant, the two went straight home. It was not for any other reason, but they were really busy recently. There were too many fields and too few people. There was no other way. Not only their family, but the whole village was busy now. Even though it was not time to plough the cotton yet, they would go to see their family every day when they heard that they had started ploughing. In short, all their thoughts were on the fields.
Chunxiao has been running back and forth frequently these days, just like Dashan and the others. The main reason is that Shufeng is still too young, and she is still a little worried about teaching her everything.
At the end of the month, the restaurant paid her the promised share. Although it wasn't as much as the first time, it was still over 1,680 taels. Adding the 70 or so taels she'd received in the middle of the month, she calculated it all and couldn't help but feel secretly delighted. She now had over 3,000 taels. This time, there were 16 more silver notes, bringing her total to 32. With this money, she wasn't afraid of anything. After returning home, she paid the farmhands and gave Xingfu and Meiman 300 wen each. It wasn't much, but it was enough to buy snacks.
Happiness and Meiman never thought that they would get the money, and they were so happy that they couldn't control themselves.
Not only them, the next day she went to the village and gave 200 coins to everyone in the village, and told them that such money would be given to them at irregular intervals in the future, and they could keep it for themselves to buy whatever they wanted.
The people in the village had never received any money since they were sold, but now each of them received 200 coins. Some of them burst into tears on the spot. Chunxiao did not expect that these men were so moved by receiving 200 coins. Suddenly, he felt a little sad and did not know what to say for a moment. "I should have given it to you a long time ago, but we were really short of money some time ago. I know the work in the cotton fields is hard and tiring, but I don't want outsiders to know about the methods I use. I don't trust outsiders, so I can only apologize for your hard work. When the cotton fields are harvested in the future, I will give you a reward. I keep my word." It would have been better if he hadn't said these words. After he said these words, several people cried even harder.
Chunxiao hurriedly dismissed everyone and took Shufeng to the field to check. The cotton in the field was about to bloom and it was obvious that the branches had been pruned.
"If there aren't enough people working in the fields outside, remember to hire some, and the people in the farm will just focus on the fields. Of course, you should always check on the people working outside. If you see any slacking off, don't hire them next time."
