These people are all honest farmers who look forward to the few acres of grain from the fields all year round. They don't ask for anything else, just to have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear.
If I really have extra money, I would rather use it to buy a house and land. It is too uneconomical and wasteful to use it to buy people!
The key is that after you buy people, you still have to feed them.
"We will be even busier in the future. Once the house is built, you will have other things to do. When the shop opens, someone will need to look after it.
Ah Wen's situation is special, and there are some things I can't bear to let him do, and we brothers are too busy to handle other things, so hiring someone is necessary."
Lin Mo's words were just to persuade the Lin brothers. Ultimately, what he wanted most was not to let Su Mu get too tired.
After hearing Lin Mo's words, several people had no choice but to nod.
"Amo, Amo, what about me? Everyone has something to do, but I don't..." Lin Wen looked at Lin Mo aggrievedly, his big eyes suddenly became wet.
Lin Mo rubbed his hair and said, "How about you help me pick the peppers at home tomorrow?"
At this point, Lin Mo said to Lin Wu, "When the time comes to get the materials, find someone else to accompany you. Let Tang Jie from a few days ago follow Awen and be responsible for harvesting vegetables in the village."
He remembered that Lin Wen was relatively close to Tang Jie, so he was worried about letting Lin Wen do these things alone, so he could only find someone he didn't mind to accompany him.
"I understand, Third Brother. I feel at ease with Tang Jie accompanying Awen. Awen also likes to play with him." Lin Wu immediately nodded in agreement.
"Yeah! I want to be with Brother Jie, Amo. Besides you, Brother Jie treats me the best. He always gives me delicious food, plays with me, and beats away the bad guys who bully me..."
Lin Wen was still chattering about Tang Jie's good things, with joy on his face.
Lin Mo smiled gently. In the original owner's memory, Tang Jie did often come to play with Lin Wen.
Lin Mo had many more plans, but he couldn't tell them all one by one, so he could only instill them into them bit by bit.
The next day.
Lin Mo got up early and arranged things at home. He then took Su Mu to the village chief's house, told him about building a house, and asked him to gather the villagers.
The village chief was naturally very happy and even made arrangements for his own son, and then arranged the tasks of harvesting peppers and soybeans one by one.
The village chief Liu Da was very quick. As soon as Lin Mo and the others left, he rushed to the village to gather people.
Lin Mo returned home and looked at the workers who were already working and Tang Jie who had been waiting in the yard. "Tang Jie, take Ah Wen home with you to harvest peppers and soybeans for the time being. Buy them according to the town's price. I've already told the village chief, and someone should be here soon."
"Brother, you prepare some copper coins for Awen, and he will be responsible for paying the money."
"I got it. Go and do whatever you want. I'll look after the family." Lin Sheng said without turning his head while busy picking vegetables.
Lin Mo nodded, "Xiao Wu, prepare a few large cloth bags, and the three of us will go to the mountain to find some materials."
To open a shop, he needs to prepare enough peppercorns. Maybe it’s because the name is wrong, but he hasn’t found any in the town yet, so he can only prepare some in advance.
If you still can't find any by the time the shops in town open, you can only save some money and find a way to grow some.
After coming to this world, Lin Mo went up the mountain quite often. In order to get close to Su Mu, he followed him almost every day after he was able to go down.
Therefore, many usable ingredients were found on the mountain.
"Little Wood, do you want to rest at home?" Lin Mo was interrupted by Su Mu as soon as he opened his mouth.
"No need, I can go up the mountain. They are just minor injuries and are almost healed." He had suffered injuries more serious than this before, but he still went up the mountain to chop firewood. Lin Mo also looked down on him!
It was still early, and the three of them walked up the mountain while talking. Since Su Mu was now a member of the Lin family, he didn't have to sneak around on remote paths like before.
The three of them walked openly on the path leading up the back mountain. Lin Mo turned his head to glance at Su Mu, a happy smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
In the past, the places I followed Su Mu were all forests with dense weeds and thorns, and if I wasn't careful, the branches and leaves would scratch my exposed skin.
This was the first time he had walked on such a cleared path. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh that this path was just like his relationship with Su Mu, from having no path to having a clean path now.
"There are so many thorns on this, can it really be eaten?" Lin Wu muttered as he collected them. Just those few thorns had pricked his hands several times.
Lin Mo picked the fruits carefully and said to Su Mu in a gentle voice, "Little Wood, don't be like Xiao Wu. Pick them slowly. Hold the cloth in your hands and pick them off bit by bit. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."
Su Mu nodded seriously and continued to pick the fruits carefully and quickly.
He already knew the effect of this peppercorn. The spicy boiled fish he ate yesterday was more refreshing and stimulating because of this seasoning.
Thinking of this, he picked the fruits even faster.
"Tomorrow I'll go to town to finalize the shop matters, and you can practice making pickled fish at home.
I asked Xiao Wu to get some fresh fish for you. We may need to stay in town for a few days this time.
If you have time, please help me dry the lentils at home so I can make fermented bean paste."
Su Mu nodded, then looked up at Lin Mo blankly: "What is bean paste?"
“It’s just a condiment. It tastes good when it’s cooked. You’ll know when the time comes. It takes some time to make.
Your main task right now is to learn how to prepare the ingredients and cook those two fish dishes. Only if you do them well will the store's business improve."
"Okay, I will study hard!"
The two chatted, one sentence at a time, and unknowingly grew closer and closer, until a gaze filled with deep resentment looked over at them...
"Ahem...what's wrong, Xiao Wu?" Lin Mo scratched his head awkwardly, and out of the corner of his eye he saw Su Mu quickly moving away from him with red ears.
Lin Wu pouted: "Third brother, no matter how good your relationship with Mu Ge'er is, you can't forget me! I'm shouting my throat is about to smoke, and you don't even respond. Aren't you afraid that I will be bitten by a poisonous snake..."
Lin Mo looked up and saw Lin Wu's eyes full of laughter. He couldn't help but knocked him on the forehead and said unhappily: "You are fine, what happened? What do you want me to do?"
"Hey, it's nothing, I just found some fruit trees over there and wanted you to go take a look. We walked quite far today, and I guess the villagers haven't been to this area yet, so a lot of wild fruits are still hanging!"
As he said this, he excitedly pulled Lin Mo over.
What caught the eye were a few scattered fruit trees. They were standing at a relatively high position, and at a glance, the valley was full of red and green fruits. They were not all over the mountain, but there were still quite a few.
"Some fruits are inedible, but these wild grapes are edible. They're not fully ripe yet, so you can try them."
