Chapter 293: The Village Chief is Floating
Among the talented gentlemen, only Mr. Wu and Mr. Hua’s spouses are still alive, while the others have all died of illness.
"Let's wait a little longer and see if we can find someone to repair it this year. If we can, we will build three houses like the old one here first." Mei Xue said, pointing to the forest on the left side of her backyard.
This place was bought by them. It’s not big, but the price is as high as the price of three mountains behind her home.
"Xiaoxue, I've decided on this place. It's quiet inside and I want it here." Old Master Wu shouted anxiously.
"No, what will you do with us? We don't have a spouse, but we still have children. They have to live with us if they come over." Old Master Sun refused to do this.
Among the old men, only Mr. Hua’s son is not around. When his grandson grows up, he will be with him.
Now, Hua Tongfang is busy and has no time to accompany him, so he followed him here.
Several old men started arguing again about the house.
Mei Xue put Xiaobai on the ground, pulled the two children over, and walked towards Grandpa Zhang.
"Grandpa, while you're still healthy, could you help me build a few more houses?" The old man is quite skilled.
Old Master Zhang looked at Xiaoxue and said, "You have been waiting for me here for a long time, right?" No wonder he was the first one to receive the pill.
"There's nothing I can do. It's because you built such a nice house, and it's cheap too." After saying that, Mei Xue started laughing.
"Yes, the house built by Grandpa Zhang is very nice. Mom, can we go take a bath? I'll take Xiaobai with me." Even in the middle of the day, the two little guys were in good spirits.
"No, let's soak in the evening and go to bed after you're done. Can we stay here tonight?" Mei Xue kissed her two sons and said.
Xiaopeng and Xiaocheng were very happy when they heard it, "Okay, I will sleep with mom tonight." They were so excited.
"Okay, sleep with mom."
After Mr. Zhang agreed, Mei Xue started to plan. No matter if she invited people from the village or asked Mr. Zhang to invite people, she would not provide meals, only pay wages, and she would figure out the rest herself.
Five dollars a day is a lot of wages.
But there is no need to rush, because Mr. Zhang still needs to think about it. It is okay to build one house, but if he wants to build several houses in a row, he has to take good care of the foundations.
Hire someone to lay the foundation first, and then we’ll worry about the rest.
If you want to build a house on the other side of the mountain, you have to build a road.
There are a lot of tedious things.
Gu Ji pulled the fish away the next day. He Anze did not come, probably because he was busy in the county town. The one who came was one of the five people who joined last time.
Mei Xue didn't say much. Seeing that He Anze didn't come back, she didn't even ask a single question.
It was Grandma He who was watching there. She took the child and Xiaobai to play in the mountains.
It is a bit cold after the beginning of spring, but it is still acceptable to go out for a walk.
"Xiaobai, do you think the fishmen I raise with those medicines will die after eating them?" Those medicine residues were left over from when she was making pills.
But these are not the medicinal herbs that the old man and the others brought, they are all from the space.
“No, those medicinal residues can have much medicinal power. But for ordinary people, they are also a great tonic. Eating them for a long time is good for the body.” Xiaobai felt that his master was really good at making use of waste.
"Grandma sells fish for five yuan per pound, it's really worth it." Mei Xue was also happy.
"Of course I'm at a loss. Master, do you have any misunderstandings about the medicinal herbs in the space?" Xiaobai rolled his eyes.
Xiaopeng and Xiaocheng saw Xiaobai rolling his eyes and immediately shouted, "Mom, look, Xiaobai is rolling his eyes again."
Mei Xue held their hands, and Xiaobai walked in front. When it turned back just now, it was seen by the two children.
"Ignore it, it's stupid." Mei Xue lied with her eyes open.
"Master, that's too much." Xiaobai was angry.
"It's not too much. You are stupid. Even stupider than Xiaohong." Mei Xue also laughed.
Today she specially brought the children out to hunt some game. They hadn't had any activities for a long time, and Meixue felt lonely.
"Xiaohong, the master said you are stupid." Xiaobai shouted.
Fortunately, its barking was also the barking of a dog.
"Mom, what's Xiaobai barking for?" Xiaopeng was a little worried when he heard it barking so long, "Is it sick?"
"Mom, does Xiaobai want to take medicine? I can prescribe it for you." Xiao Cheng was so enthusiastic.
Mei Xue was speechless, "Don't harm Xiao Bai anymore. If Xiao Bai dies from your harm, you won't even have a place to cry."
The two little guys are learning medicine from Grandpa Mu. Since Mei Xue told others that she doesn't know how to do it, she can't teach them.
Of course, even if I want to teach, it is not the right time now. In Xiaobai's words, that medical book is too precious, and many things no longer exist, so there is no point in learning it.
Not everyone has a space like its owner.
On the third day after Gu Ji left, the village chief came.
It’s not about selling the mountain.
"Xiaoxue, uncle heard that your fish sells for five yuan per pound?" He couldn't believe it.
Mei Xue glanced at the village chief. Well, someone in the village was starting to get jealous again.
"Yes, the fish in my family are all raised with medicinal herbs. I'm selling them for five yuan a pound because we're an acquaintance. Grandma originally wanted to sell them for ten yuan." Mei Xue didn't like the village chief very much, but she didn't hate him either.
It is normal to have ideas, and it is abnormal not to have ideas.
"Can the villagers raise it?" If they can, the village chief was excited.
"Yes, it is possible, but the cost is a bit high. Not to mention the medicinal materials, the mortality rate is also high. You can see that I don't sell many fish."
Sometimes you can't spoil a fish. "Besides, you can't sell many of these fish throughout the year, and they grow very slowly." She was not lying.
Because it is so nutritious, the fish will become thinner and thinner.
Even though the price is high, it is not cost-effective. After hearing this, the village chief began to think about it.
"By the way, Xiaoxue, the secretary and I went to the town for a meeting this time. Our Hejia Village was praised, but the town wants us to help the neighboring village. What do you think?"
In this matter, he still clearly distinguished the priorities.
The village is what it is now because of this person, otherwise, life in Hejia Village would just be passable.
I'm not rich, but I won't starve to death.
"Do you want to grow vegetables?" Mei Xue didn't care about this matter. The demand was getting bigger and bigger anyway.
During the Chinese New Year, Qian Zeyang said that his restaurant would be expanded again.
Besides, the dishes of Hejia Village have long been famous in the town and the county, so there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them.
Isn’t Boss Mi still guarding there?
I heard that he opened many stores in various towns.
The village chief nodded and said, "Yes, that's what they thought. They just wanted to ask you if they can buy some seeds from your family." Thinking of the compliments from the village chiefs at this meeting, he felt very proud.
That taste...
