Qingxi, who was driving the carriage, heard Ji Shizi's loud shout and immediately stopped the carriage, and the carriage was suddenly in chaos.
Home in Xinghua Village.
The news that Mengyue had gotten another 10,000 ducks quickly spread throughout the village the next day.
Everyone was discussing whether to buy the duckling, but some far-sighted people went to the duck's house without thinking at all.
I asked Mengyue in front of me if the price of selling ducklings was still reasonable and whether the price was one cent each.
After getting a confirmed answer from Mengyue, the visitor immediately bought twenty and took them home.
Because he found that there were more and more locusts on the ground, and even with a catching net, the number that could be caught each day was limited.
But it’s different with the little duck. The little duck can go to the ground to eat locusts every day, so there is no need to feed it with food. When there are no locusts in the future, the little duck will grow a lot bigger.
Even if there is no food to feed them at that time, they can take them to the town to sell for money. Only a fool would not do this, killing two birds with one stone.
Once there is a chance, there will be a second. The villagers first learned about the idea of raising ducks from the village chief, and with someone taking the lead, it was natural for them to accept it.
So after selling locusts, a long line formed in front of the door of the house again. This time, people were not there to sell locusts, but to buy ducklings from the house.
Some bought ten, some bought twenty, some bought thirty, and some bought ten.
After about an hour, every household in Xinghua Village had bought ducklings, and more than two thousand were sold at once.
After the villagers arrived, Mengyue asked Minghao to go to the wasteland at the foot of the mountain and ask the people who used to help his family build a thatched shed for the ducklings.
If you hire someone to work, of course you have to provide them with food.
Mengyue looked at the vegetables and grains at home and decided to make a simple chicken noodle soup.
The pheasant I got from the mountain a while ago has not been eaten yet. I prepare the pheasant, add seasoning, and cook chicken soup.
Mengyue asked Shi to help her and started kneading the dough and rolling out the noodles.
Except for Wang De, Wang Dazhu, Wang Erzhu, Wang Daniu, Wang Erniu and Wang Youliang all came.
Mengyue had seen how much food several people ate before, so she didn't dare to make less noodles and made a whole pot of hand-rolled noodles in chicken soup.
By the time Dazhu and his companions finished their work, Mengyue had just finished cooking the noodles.
"Wow, Sister Mengyue, your cooking skills are simply amazing. I can smell the fragrance from far away." Wang Erniu said.
Erzhu said jokingly, "Yeah, I wasn't feeling hungry at first, but when I smelled this, my stomach started growling."
"If you're hungry, eat more." Mengyue replied.
Soon everyone was served a big bowl of chicken noodle soup. The noodles were soft, smooth and chewy, paired with rich chicken soup. Before eating, the aroma of the chicken soup was already wafting into the air, making people salivate.
Take a mouthful of noodles and drink a sip of chicken soup, and your whole mouth will be filled with the delicious aroma of chicken. You won’t want to stop eating.
Several people had eaten at Mengyue's house before, and they knew that Mengyue would not be unhappy if they ate too much.
So everyone ordered a second bowl, especially Wang Erniu, who ate two bowls and saw that there was still some soup left in the pot, so he also poured some in.
"Auntie, Sister Mengyue, the chicken noodle soup you made is so delicious, hiccup."
Wang Daniu didn't even want to admit that this was his brother. It was too embarrassing.
Seeing that everyone was enjoying the meal, Mrs. Gui was also very happy.
Although there was not much food at home, she would not say anything if her daughter wanted to cook.
Besides, her family was in the business of collecting locusts, and she was well aware of the daily accounts. She knew that there was extra money at home, so even if there was no harvest from the crops, she would not have to worry about going hungry.
