While they were talking, another person came to buy rice wine.
Shuiqing stepped aside and watched as her mother skillfully scooped up rice wine and poured it into the earthenware jar.
Watching her mother's movements, Hu Wenhua lowered her voice and said, "Sister, I feel that Mother can manage on her own. I can go out and find another job."
Shui Qing looked at her brother in surprise.
Who would choose to go out and work when they can't enjoy life?
Hu Wenhua thought his sister didn't believe him, so he told her: "Look, our family is in a good location in town, and most of our customers are regulars who come to our door with their own pottery jars and porcelain jars to buy them."
When my mother first started making rice, she wasn't very skilled, so I could help her with washing and steaming it. But later, as she became more proficient, I had to volunteer to do any work.
"Isn't that great? Neither of you will be tired." Shui Qing subconsciously thought that fifteen-year-old Hu Wenhua was still a child and didn't need to do adult work.
There's still a long way to go in the workday, so take advantage of this period of relaxation while you can, because it will be hard to have an easy life later on.
Hu Wenhua lowered his gaze and said in a low voice, "This year is a bumper harvest year, and it's especially cold today, so rice wine is selling well. But what if there really is a disaster next year?"
By then, the rice wine business will definitely be impossible, and my father's pork business will also be impossible during the famine year. With no income, I'm afraid my parents will worry all day long and just sit around eating away their savings.
But don't worry, sister, rice wine has been selling well these past two months, so I'll definitely focus on rice wine as my main product.
My plan was that by February, fewer people would be buying rice wine, and my mother could manage on her own. Then I could go out and find some work.
He only realized the benefits of having money after he made it.
Parents no longer need to worry about the small size of their home and want to buy land to build a bigger house, nor do they need to worry about him not having a place to live after he gets married and has children;
Now that my mother no longer has to worry about where to save money for his wedding and has to cut back on the food, the food at home is much better than before!
While we can't say we can eat rice and wheat flour every day, we can at least have it once every three to five days.
The two of them wouldn't worry so much about the pork that their father couldn't sell that they couldn't sleep at night. Instead, they would happily cure it into bacon or smoke it to eat.
Shui Qing understood after hearing this; the child had developed a sense of crisis and was making plans for the future.
Having an umbrella on a sunny day is always a good idea.
She didn't object, but simply asked, "Have you decided what you want to do?"
If I continue doing manual labor, then this will be my only livelihood from now on.
Hu Wenhua said earnestly, "I want to find an apprenticeship in a shop in the prefectural city, to learn on the job, even if the wages are low or nonexistent, I can still learn skills."
"
Only capable people can survive a year of famine without worrying about food and drink.
If you do manual labor that anyone can do, you can make a living when times are good, but that's all you can do. You can't go any further.
In times of famine or hardship, everyone scrambles for food, and there are many people willing to work for just a bite to eat. At those times, it is difficult to make ends meet, let alone support a family.
He wanted to be a capable person so that his whole family could have enough to eat and drink during famine years.
Shui Qing nodded in agreement.
Her thinking was more long-term and realistic.
We'll know next year if the plot has deviated from its expected course.
If there is no deviation, the capital will be moved as soon as the war ends.
They need to make money quickly, a lot of money, because during wartime, real estates, fields, and estates are sold off at rock-bottom prices!
The mansions in Beijing! Hoard as many as you can, and you can instantly achieve financial freedom by reselling them!
However, no matter how cheap the price is, they still need to have money in their hands; otherwise, they can only sigh in despair.
