Afterwards, Xu Xingdong gave Wang Ergui another two taels of silver and said, "Thank you for your concern, little brother Wang. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
After Wang Ergui sent Xu Xingdong away, he said to Lin Wanwan, "Miss Lin, our dental office will take a commission from the transaction."
Lin Wanwan nodded, opened her purse and took out two taels of silver to give to him.
Wang Ergui accepted the silver with satisfaction, and said to her, "Miss Lin, you have already signed the deed, but you still need to go to the county government office to register and pay taxes."
"I still have to pay taxes? How much?"
"Our county collects less, only one in fifty, which means you have to pay two taels of silver. Miss Lin, do you have enough money? If not, you can go back another day."
Lin Wanwan still had about four or five taels of silver on her, so she decided to get it done today.
Wang Ergui took her to the county government office to register with the chief clerk.
The chief clerk looked at Lin Wanwan twice more and asked another question when he saw that she was a little girl who bought a shop worth only 100 taels of silver.
"Little girl, do your parents know?"
"My Lord, my parents have passed away, leaving me alone."
"Where is the head of your village? Why didn't he come with you?"
"The head of the village has been busy with the autumn harvest recently, so I didn't bother him. The head of our Linjia Village has been very caring towards me. When I was young, the whole village collected grain to support me. But this year I did some small business and saved some money, thinking that I could help the village in the future."
"Well, you know how to be grateful, that's good. Okay, give me the money, and do a good job in the future. Don't cheat for the sake of petty profits!"
"Yes! Wanwan knows!"
Lin Wanwan paid the money and walked out of the county government office with Wang Ergui. There was nothing else to do, so Wang also said goodbye to her.
She walked to an empty alley and entered the space. She filled a basket with peaches and a few chickens in a sack and hurried out.
Every time she enters and exits the space, it's like being a thief. However, if she meets someone, she will appear out of nowhere and scare them to death.
She hurried all the way to the outside of the county town. Everyone was waiting for her. Lin Wanwan felt a little embarrassed, so she had to take a few peaches and share them with them.
The two aunts finally nodded in satisfaction, and one of them muttered, "That's pretty good!"
Lin Wanwan rolled her eyes. She was in a good mood today and didn't want to argue with her.
On the way, the two aunts rarely picked on her. They had probably asked all the questions they should have asked Sister Yuying, and were just thinking about what they bought today. As they talked, they turned back to Lin Wanwan.
"Wanwan, you must earn a lot of money by selling things every day, right? If you are too busy in the future, please call us!"
"When I'm too busy in the future, I will definitely ask the sisters-in-law to help. Although the wages are not much, the sisters-in-law should not complain about the heavy work and little pay."
"Oh my, how can that be possible? It's not a small amount at all. Thirty cents a day. How can we, women like us, earn that much?"
Lin Wanwan raised the corner of her mouth, "Well, then let's ask the two sisters-in-law to come and work today!"
The two aunts nodded when they heard this. She turned around and saw Li Yuying frowning. She patted her hand and told her not to worry.
When they arrived at the village, Lin Wanwan said to them, "Sisters-in-law, go home and settle down first, and come to see me after lunch!"
Seeing that they had a lot of stuff, Uncle Youcai drove them home. Lin Wanwan thanked him and left a few peaches in his car.
After returning home, Li Yuying was a little puzzled, so she pulled her aside and asked, "Wanwan, I can do all these tasks by myself, but what did my sister-in-law do wrong?"
Lin Wanwan put down the backpack, took out the pig offal from it, pointed at it and said, "I can't bear to let my sister-in-law deal with these, hehe."
Li Yuying immediately laughed out of anger, "You, if you want me to help you, you can just eat it. Why do you have to pay someone to help you?"
"Sister-in-law, the third mate is preparing the pig's offal. When will you be done? Besides, you still have to help me with the fruit! How can you do this if your hands smell?"
"Okay, I'll come back in the evening."
"Okay, wait for me to call my sister-in-law."
After Li Yuying left, Lin Wanwan let the chicken out first, so that she could eat eggs openly from now on! She also put the two big pots in place, thinking about where to place the stove. If she wanted to cook pig offal, she would have to do it outside, but if she wanted to stew it, it would be better to do it inside the house, otherwise the smell would spread out and make it difficult for people to sleep, hahahaha.
When Lin Bai came back, he found several more chickens in the yard and he ran around excitedly, teasing them.
"Sister! You bought chickens again! So many chickens, so we can eat eggs every day from now on?"
Lin Wanwan smiled and nodded, "That's right, from now on you have to eat two eggs every day, and I'll leave the job of feeding the chickens to you, okay?"
Lin Bai rushed over like a little firecracker, hugged her and smiled happily, "Don't worry, sister, I will definitely feed them well!"
"Okay, I believe you. Feed them some corn first. I'll go cook."
Lin Bai immediately ran to the kitchen, grabbed a few handfuls of corn, and went back to the yard to feed them.
Lin Wanwan saw that it was almost noon. They hadn't eaten breakfast yet, so they decided to reward their stomachs first.
She took out the pork belly from the space and prepared to make braised pork. Having a space is good, because it can keep things fresh. Whatever you put in yesterday, you can take it out the same.
Rinse the meat with water, then light a fire, put the pork belly in and stir-fry until both sides are golden brown, then remove and set aside. Put rock sugar in the pot, and when the sugar is completely dissolved and changed color, pour in the pork belly and stir-fry with sugar color. Then add scallion, ginger, star anise, bay leaves, soy sauce and appropriate amount of dark soy sauce, and rice wine. Finally, pour in the boiled water that has been prepared in advance and simmer over low heat.
Seeing that Lin Bai was still concentrating on feeding the chickens, she took the opportunity to go back to the space to pick some rapeseed and stir-fry it. It would be easy to get sick of eating only pork belly.
