Chapter 100 Black Dog Blood Reveals Quickly
Mrs. Zhou was so heartbroken that she was crying. Such a good thing was just given away like that.
In the past, she would never have agreed to this.
Now.
You won’t go wrong if you listen to the fourth son’s wife.
It can also be considered as a way to repay the villagers. We are all from the same village, and any care we can give is appreciated.
Besides, it can bring good reputation.
It's worth it.
Mrs. Zhou cursed with a smile, then went back into the house and brought out a basket of fermented tofu. Each piece was almost the same size, in small cubes.
It smells strangely fragrant.
Lin Shiqi told her that the fermented tofu tasted good now and would taste even better in two days.
She also went out and told everyone what she had said.
Then, each person was really given two pieces for free. The villagers were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. Some shameless people took the pieces home quickly and called their family members to get two pieces as well.
Mrs. Zhou also has a sharp eye and a good memory.
Each household is allowed to collect the items only three people at most, as the rule of thumb is three times as many.
A family can only receive a maximum of six dollars.
Otherwise, if thousands of people from the whole village came to claim two pieces, they could make it for free this time.
People from the next door village also heard the news and tried to take advantage of the situation to get two pieces. Seeing that the situation was not good, Mrs. Zhou decisively packed up the dustpan and said that she had given away all the pieces.
Of course, this is all later.
There was a bustling crowd in front of Old Zhou's house as Zhou Laoer had returned from delivering goods to the county town.
And brought back a rare guest.
It was Manager Xu of Xu's Trading Company.
Manager Xu came to the countryside in person to deliver the silver and payment for the goods over the past few days to Lin Shiqi and the others.
By the way, take a look at Lao Zhou’s tofu shop.
The Zhou family is very welcoming.
Lin Shiqi came out in person and spoke to Manager Xu.
Manager Xu asked, "What are you doing? So many people?"
Lin Shiqi smiled and said, "Let the villagers have a taste of the new fermented tofu we made today."
Manager Xu had seen it a long time ago and said, "Let me have a taste too."
Mrs. Zhou quickly handed him a small piece with a smile.
After Manager Xu finished eating, he savored the food for a while.
After a while, he said, "This is good."
The Zhou family was even happier.
If the big boss says it’s good, then it must be good.
After entering the yard, Lin Shiqi introduced Manager Xu to the Zhou family.
He also introduced Manager Xu to Old Man Zhou, Mrs. Zhou and others.
Take Manager Xu to visit the tofu shop.
If this had happened a few days ago, when the new house was not yet built, Manager Xu would have thought it was shabby when he came to see it.
The tofu shops nowadays are impeccable, bright, clean and there is absolutely no problem with food safety.
After Manager Xu visited the place, he felt relieved.
"Your Zhouji tofu is very popular in our Longquan County. The previous Huangji tofu shop has closed down now. Every day our Xu's company doesn't have enough tofu to sell. The sales in the neighboring county are good, but there is one thing: the delivery is not timely. When Zhouji delivers it, it is too far away and is not fresh anymore. It would be better if your family opened a tofu shop in the county town..."
Lin Shiqi said, "There is no way to solve this problem for the time being. We can only do it in the countryside. We have to rent a house in the county town, and our staff is not skilled enough. We have to wait for a while before we can consider it."
At least I wouldn't consider it before the New Year.
Although she has let go of everything now, she is still in charge at home.
If Liu and the others encountered something they didn't know how to do, they would come and ask her for help.
It's pretty much the same.
But if Liu and the others were allowed to go out and make tofu alone, they wouldn't dare to do so.
Also unwilling to leave home.
It’s almost the end of the year and no one wants to go out.
As for Lin Shiqi and his wife, unless Zhou Lang passes the imperial examination and becomes a scholar or a juren and wants to pursue further studies, they will not leave Taohua Village easily.
If they left Taohua Village, they would be worried about Mrs. Zhou and the others. What if, when they were not around, they were killed by Zhou Qinan, the good situation would change again.
Making money is one aspect, but staying alive is also important.
So, I won’t consider it for now.
"Okay then, increase the order for another 500 kilograms of tofu. And give us some of this moldy tofu. This kind of moldy tofu should have a long shelf life, right?"
"Yes, the shelf life is much longer than that of fresh tofu. If sealed, it can last for several months."
"Okay, how about this price? Give us more."
When it comes to negotiating the price, a contract needs to be signed.
Lin Shiqi carefully calculated the costs and finally set a suitable price. Both parties happily signed the agreement.
The delivery volume has increased again.
Every day, we have to deliver two thousand kilograms of tofu to Xu's Company, and also several boxes of moldy tofu.
Because the production of fermented tofu takes a long time, it will take half a month before it can be delivered.
I first brought a box back to Manager Xu as a way to develop the market for free, without charging any money.
Manager Xu kept praising Lin Shiqi for being fair in his business dealings.
Anyway, both parties are very happy.
Mrs. Zhou was so happy that Old Man Zhou enthusiastically insisted on inviting her to have dinner at his home and even wanted to let her stay overnight.
Manager Xu had something important to discuss, so he said he would come again next time. After eating a meal, he was about to leave.
The whole family saw Manager Xu off.
Manager Xu asked, "If you don't consider going to the county to make tofu now, what about next year? Although your conditions in the countryside are also very good, it's too far to transport it back and forth. If it rains or snows..."
Lin Shiqi said, "Let's talk about next year's affairs next year."
Manager Xu didn't try to persuade him any further, "Okay then! We'll talk about it next year. Happy cooperation."
Put him on the carriage.
Watched the carriage go away.
Two stealthy figures were looking at Lin Shiqi in the crowd.
Muttering, "It's her, the ancient witch. Look, she is my daughter Lin Shiqi. Is she possessed by a dirty creature?" The person who spoke was Lin's mother.
Next to her was an old woman wearing a cloth dress with colorful ink painted on her face.
She just pretended to put something on her eyelids.
"Let me apply some butter and take a closer look."
After taking a few glances at Lin Shiqi, she immediately pretended to be mysterious and said, "Something is wrong. You are right! We need to perform a ritual."
"I'll tell you, it's definitely not the right play."
"Just do as we agreed beforehand. When I say one, two, three, you rush over and beat her!"
"Okay!"
"one two three……"
Lin Shiqi was just about to turn around and go back into the house.
Suddenly, something came at her and she had a bad feeling.
But she reacted too slowly, and everything in the man's hand splashed onto her head.
The fishy smell almost made her vomit.
My head, body, and face are all wet...
When I touched it, it was covered in blood.
"Hahaha, I got hit! Evil ghosts, quickly retreat from my daughter Seventeen's body! Quickly reveal yourself under the black dog's blood and drive away all evil!"
Mother Lin laughed and shouted loudly.
Like a crazy woman.
Not far behind her, the ancient witch looked more like a crazy woman, dancing with a bell in her hand.
He was mumbling something, but I couldn't tell what he was saying.
Lin Shiqi's blood pressure almost rose.
What the hell is this!
She wiped a handful of the smelly black dog blood, and some of it seeped into her eyes, making them burn.
"Are you crazy?"
The little mute girl had already rushed out from the yard, standing in front of Lin Shiqi to protect him. She waved her fist angrily at Lin's mother, indicating that she would beat her if she dared to take another step forward.
