This day.
Chen Xian came to deliver the manuscript and also handed over the post he had just prepared to write to Uncle Fu.
Uncle Fu looked at the posts, feeling both curious and puzzled.
On the Disadvantages of Long-Term Pork Consumption
The Compendium of Materia Medica states: "Pigs are aquatic animals, salty and cold in nature, and their meat is slightly toxic; pigs produce phlegm, such as wind-related diseases, damp phlegm, and cold phlegm."
Uncle Fu was puzzled when he saw these words. "Brother Chen, what do you mean by this? Aren't you shooting yourself in the foot? Doesn't your family sell braised pork?"
Chen Xian: "I've run into some trouble with business lately."
A strange look instantly appeared on Uncle Fu's face.
this?
"Please help me post this message, to give everyone a little heads-up..."
He wanted to gradually erode the town's influence, instilling a certain perspective in its inhabitants.
Uncle Fu looked at the post and became more and more terrified.
There are certain contraindications associated with eating chicken eggs, such as those related to cold poisoning, dampness, leprosy, scars, and eczema.
The scar is red, swollen, itchy, and hot; it enlarges and expands retaliatory!
He instantly looked at Chen Xian with a serious expression.
Brother Chen, is this true?
His expression showed some emotion.
Chen Xian waved his hand and said, "To talk about the toxicity of any food without considering its dosage is just being irresponsible."
Did you know that even ordinary fresh water can cause poisoning if we drink large amounts of it?
"Oh, I see."
Uncle Fu breathed a sigh of relief.
"So, Brother Chen, you're not planning to sell this anytime soon?"
"Sigh, we're planning to sell a different kind of meat recently."
Uncle Fu's eyes lit up slightly, and he grinned instantly, "Your braised pork tastes really good! What kind of meat are you planning to make this time? Chicken or fish? Or maybe some lamb?"
"Well, come to Chen's stall then, Manager Fu."
...
When Chen Xian returned home.
Uncle Chen looked at him with a worried expression.
"Where did you go, Xian-ge? Today is the 16th, a perfect day to finish the construction on the new house."
Chen Xian took out some loose copper coins from the room.
Then the Chen family members stood together at the door of the new house.
The workers looked eager.
"Thank you all for your help during this time. Now it's time to start paying wages."
"Yes, yes, Da Zhu's father is never short of wages. He's been working on and off for almost two months. 35 coins a day, wow, that's a lot of money."
Soon, the Chen family moved a small table out of the house, and Chen Xian began to distribute wages to the villagers in an orderly manner.
"Tiger's father, 50 days of work, wages 1,750 coins."
"Zhao Dayou, worked for 30 days, totaling 1050."
They handed out a lot of money in small amounts, without even breaking it, just giving them some loose silver coins.
Many villagers were seeing such a large piece of silver for the first time and were quite excited.
"This is the first time I've ever seen such a large sum of money. It's all thanks to Da Zhu's father."
Some people are rather impatient.
"Dad Dazhu, when are you going to start raising piglets and chicks? We'd love to have them help you with your work."
Chen Xian smiled and shook his head.
"Don't rush into this. Wait until the price of piglets is lower before making a purchase."
Uncle Chen stood behind him, somewhat puzzled.
But seeing that the pig farms were still bustling with construction and the sites were rather messy, he knew that it would take some time before the pig farm was completed.
When Chen Xian entered the house, he saw the craftsmen making his bed and cabinets.
Suddenly stunned, I realized that I finally had my own house and bed in this ancient world.
I went to the kitchen and looked at the stove.
The utensils the Chen family used for eating.
The new house has a fresh look and is very comfortable to look at. It's clean and tidy.
Erzhuzi quickly went to help set off the firecrackers.
A crackling sound began to rang out...
In the following days, the Chen family began to bustle about, moving pots, pans, and utensils into the new house.
In the evening, after everyone in the Chen family had eaten and drunk their fill, they began to discuss things in the new courtyard.
Plant a persimmon tree in this place
Near the wall, why not build a few grape trellises?
We can plant some vegetables in that open space, so we can eat fresh vegetables in the yard without leaving home, and we won't have to run outside to get water...
Everyone had been busy all day and was getting ready to take a shower.
Chen Xian said seriously, "Alright, Dazhu and Cuihua, you'll share a room; Erzhu, you'll share a room; and Sanniu and Siniu, you'll share a room."
Chen Xian continued, "Alright, alright, everyone disperse and go get some rest. Tomorrow we're going to the countryside to buy some free-range chickens, and we'll prepare some new dishes for the family."
His words excited the whole family, and they decided to cook a new dish.
Chen Xian, Shuangshuang, and Li Niang stepped into the house.
The same old mattress was still on the bed.
Seeing that tattered and worn-out quilt, made of straw, reeds, and wheat stalks, it was not warm at all.
"Let's make do with this tattered quilt for now. When we get to town tomorrow, I'll ask if they have any better quilts to buy. We need at least one new quilt for each person in our family, right?"
As night fell, Li Niang's expression turned somewhat awkward.
Shuangshuang sat on the edge of the bed, her hands twisting together, her feet swinging restlessly back and forth.
"Finally, I have my own private space."
"I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I always feel that there are powerful beings called readers beyond the universe above my head... beyond the dimensional wall. It seems like someone is complaining that I'm a eunuch. I'm thinking of improving the conditions at home. We can't even find a decent bed. I can't just roll around in front of the kids, can I? I have my pride too."
