She has such a large family to support, and several brothers who follow her.
Cooperating to open a store is one thing, and selling medicinal materials is another. Leng You would never do such a mean thing of taking advantage of others.
When they arrived at Hu Liu's house, Leng You asked Bai Changpu to sit down, got on the sled and left. When Hu Liu took out the two stacks of money and chased out the door, Leng You and Bai Changpu were nowhere to be seen.
Holding the two thousand yuan, Hu Liu felt hot in his heart.
This is two thousand yuan, and the young Leng You stuffed it into his pocket without hesitation. I'm afraid many adults can't be so generous.
But he absolutely could not take this money back, and he thought that he would return the full amount when Leng You came next time.
…
After returning to Daheishan Village, Leng You began to hunt prey on a large scale again. She was not worried that such rampant hunting would lead to the extinction of prey, because these things in the valley had really become rampant.
With her capture, the ecological balance was restored slightly, and the prey reproduced even faster.
Another thing is that within a few years these prey will be listed as protected animals and their buying and selling will be prohibited, so making money from this is not a long-term solution.
Through these days of thinking, she has come up with many plans to make money, and she will implement them immediately when the time is right.
But all this could not make her happy, because according to the trend of her previous life, Bai Changpu would receive a notice before the Spring Festival and then return to Pingdu.
Although the separation was foreseeable just like Xiang Huaixin, Leng You still felt more and more depressed as time went by.
But preparations still had to be made, so before the twelfth lunar month, Leng You persuaded Wen Jiuyue to slaughter two fat pigs in advance.
The two piglets that Xiang Wentian bought with her when he was still around had grown to more than 300 kilograms each after Wen Jiuyue's careful feeding for nearly a year.
At the beginning, Bai Changpu and Wen Jiuyue were very worried. How could they move such a big thing when there were only three of them, an old man and a youngest?
Leng You said lightly, "I have a way."
It was a rare sunny day, and Leng You placed a large iron cage custom-made from the county town tightly at the door of the pig house.
Wen Jiuyue entered the pig house and pushed the pigs out. When a big fat pig ran out and crashed into the cage, Leng You quickly closed the door of the iron cage.
There were four wheels under the iron cage. The three men pushed the cage directly to the stove that had been set up in advance next to the yard. The water in the pot was already boiling.
Next to the stove was a shelf similar to a long table nailed together with wooden boards. The iron cage was pushed onto the shelf along the slanted wooden boards. Taking advantage of the pig's unpreparedness, Leng You reached into the cage and tied a rope to one of the pig's legs, and then did the same to tie the hind leg on the same side.
Then, pull hard from the other side and the fat pig's body will collapse. Then tie the other two legs and fix them all to the cage.
Acorus calamus stabbed the pig's vitals with one blow. As the pig's blood gushed out, Wen Jiuyue quickly placed a large basin of buckwheat flour and salt underneath and accurately caught the pig's blood, stirring it constantly to prevent it from coagulating.
After the pig's blood had been drained, Leng You dragged the pig's legs while Bai Changpu and Wen Jiuyue pulled the cage out little by little. They then poured boiling water on the pig and removed its hair. After removing the hair, they opened the pig's stomach and cleaned its internal organs. Then they cut and removed the meat.
Simply deal with the first one, and then start slaughtering the other one.
Although there were only three of them, they worked quite well together and had made sufficient preparations in advance, so the process was not slow. By one o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them had already sat down at the table.
Braised pork, pork stewed with dried cabbage, blood sausage, mashed pork liver with garlic, pork fried with sauerkraut, and rice.
The three of them ate so much that their mouths were almost drooling.
"Pork is still more delicious! Especially the pork raised at home, it's so delicious." Bai Changpu also drank some wine, with a look of happiness and satisfaction on his face.
"It's just that this meat is a bit too much. The three of us can't finish it in a year. I have to think about how to store it.
And those four newly bought piglets... It's my fault. I was too greedy. I thought there was plenty of food at home and it would be okay to raise a few more pigs. So I bought them without thinking when I went to the county town with Youyou last time.
If we raise the pigs to this size again next year, what will we do with all the meat?"
Wen Jiuyue suddenly had an added burden of happiness.
"When making bacon, it tastes better if you use pork, especially ham." Leng You immediately gave a solution.
"Yeah! Why didn't I think of that? Youyou is really smart.
Then we can buy a few more piglets?"
Wen Jiuyue slapped his thigh, as if he suddenly became enlightened.
Leng You: “…”
"I really want to taste what the ham made from our own pigs tastes like! But unfortunately... Alas!" White Acorus sighed softly.
Wen Jiuyue was so immersed in the beautiful fantasy of pig farming that she didn't hear what Bai Changpu said. However, Leng You heard it clearly, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and lowered his head.
A week later, Leng You and Bai Changpu went to the county town again, and the sled was loaded with wild animals that Leng You had hunted in the past few days.
"Niece, you are finally here. Come on, come on, let's go and see the new shop we bought." Hu Liu was wandering in front of Leng You's bungalow. This was the third day in a row that he came here to wait for Leng You.
Knowing that Leng You would definitely look for him if he came to the county town, he was so anxious that he couldn't help but want to see Leng You as soon as possible.
"Wait a moment, Uncle Hu Liu." Leng You first delivered some things he brought from home into the house, and then drove the sled with Hu Liu to his place.
Without even bothering to unload the goods, Hu Liu dragged her and Bai Changpu to see the newly purchased store.
Although the location of the store does not seem to be the most prosperous area now, it will become one of the main commercial streets in a dozen years, and Leng You is very satisfied with this.
"Niece, I'm glad you're finally here. Come in and take a look." Liu Dazui was cleaning the house with several of Hu Liu's men.
According to Hu Liu, this was a house that someone lived in before, but because they were moving to Tongyuan City, they sold it to them.
Leng You looked around and saw that the house was located on the south side of the road, with a total of four rooms. Perhaps for the convenience of entry and exit, a north door was opened.
The total construction area is about 150 square meters. It is a brick and tile structure. It should have been built only a few years ago and looks very new. There is a small courtyard of more than 200 square meters on the south side of the house.
Hu Liu and Liu Dazui spent a total of 1,500 yuan, which is not cheap considering the current prices of goods and housing.
"We also looked at a place about 500 meters to the east. There are six houses, also on the south side of the road. However, the houses are old and shabby. The good thing is that it comes with a large piece of land, more than 20 acres, surrounded by a wall and full of fruit trees."
