Chapter 243 What did she snatch?
Amidst the congratulations, Shen Qing smiled and said, "Invite everyone to the wedding banquet then."
Then he got down to business: "Making brushes requires a lot of wool, and I also need sheep oil and sheep milk. I plan to buy a batch of lambs to raise."
The people present nodded when they heard this and felt that it was very good and correct.
But there is no need to report these to them, they don’t understand the affairs of the workshop.
Shen Qing continued, "I'd like to ask if you guys want to raise any sheep. If so, I'll buy their wool, goat milk, and goat fat at the price they sell outside."
There are only about ten people in her family, including two babies.
There are already quite a few chickens, ducks, geese, donkeys, cows, rabbits and sheep at home. Even if we raise more, the number is limited. But the other families in the village are different. Except for the Guan family and the Feng family, the other families have more than ours!
The largest livestock they have is one or two donkeys at most, and raising sheep, cutting grass and storing grass are not a problem at all.
They will start with raising sheep this year, and will raise pigs and rabbits next year. The Lei family will also hunt for wool from rare prey, so that they can own a large number of ordinary brushes as well as rare and precious brushes.
She makes money by making brushes and soap. People in the village can earn money by raising livestock and selling wool while earning wages.
The most important thing is that there is meat to eat!
Those who could come to discuss matters were all smart people from each household, and they immediately started to make plans in their minds.
Sheep only need to eat grass, and their wool, sheep oil and sheep milk can all be sold. You can also save money on buying mutton, which is a great deal no matter how you calculate it.
Mr. Jiang took the lead and said, "My family can raise them. How many do you want?"
Shen Qing said, "Uncle, you guys can see how many sheep you can raise. I don't need to buy mutton. Mutton is better eaten fresh than smoked or pickled. If we raise too many and can't eat them all, wouldn't that be a waste?"
Even if the workshop could consume a sheep every day, the wool and fat from the sheepskin would not be enough, not to mention that the workshop could not consume a whole sheep in one meal at noon.
Not to mention the collection of goat milk.
So if every household in the village raises them, there will be an adequate supply of raw materials!
However, they also need to consider the number of people in their family and other circumstances, the more is not necessarily better.
After hearing Shen Qing's words, everyone started to calculate.
Even Liu Cuihua was thinking about whether to raise a group of them?
Then she remembered that her home was in the mountains. Not only could she not graze the sheep, but the space was not big enough, and she couldn't even cut grass to feed them.
Forget it, the three families should just go hunting. There are animals everywhere in the mountains, so why do they need to raise meat themselves?
When the time comes, they can sell the leather to Shen Qing and eat the meat themselves, which is more relaxing and comfortable than raising sheep.
In the end, except for the Lei family and the Guan family, the other eight families decided to raise sheep.
Liu Cuihua said casually, "Dafu knows where there are sheep farmers. Let him take you there to buy some tomorrow. You don't have to go into the city. You can just come back after buying the sheep."
Everyone: .....Dafu is really a brick, he can be moved wherever he is needed!
Originally, they were just discussing who would go into the city tomorrow to sell medicinal herbs and purchase things, but now there was the added matter of buying sheep, so they had to reallocate the personnel.
They need to dig medicinal herbs, build houses, go to the city, and buy sheep... Everyone feels that splitting a person in half is not enough, he needs to be split into eight pieces!
The victims at the city gate lay lazily in the sun every day, asking for food, but Shen Qing and his group were busy as ever.
On the second day, the huge team set off.
In the past, most of the people who went out were men and women, and there were very few girls. But this time, not only Guan Li, who was purchasing dowry, went, but young women from each family also followed!
They wore neat clothes, tied their hair up, wore crossbows on their belts, raised the reins, and set off in a heroic manner.
Guan Li was among them, riding in the same donkey cart with Jiang Ying, Jiang Yu, Hong and He Hua.
"My sister-in-law ordered dozens of kilograms of malt sugar from us, but unlike before, this time the sugar balls are coated with cooked sesame seeds, which she said would make them more fragrant and crispy.
They must be preparing for your wedding. We have to go to the city to buy more wheat, glutinous rice and sesame seeds." Jiang Ying said with a smile.
The sugar factory built by the three families has not been completed yet, but the house of the third aunt has been built, and dozens of kilograms of malt sugar can be made in the third aunt's house.
Zhao Mingyue's eldest daughter-in-law, Hong He Hehua, revealed: "We not only ordered malt sugar, but also ordered hundreds of kilograms of tofu, dried tofu, and bean curd sheets with my mother-in-law."
My sister-in-law is planning to hold the wedding in a grand manner.
Guan Li's joy grew, and she felt good to be valued by her husband's family.
In the past, her mother-in-law always dragged her along, but when she got older, her father, brother, and she herself couldn't wait to marry in, so they didn't want anything.
To be honest, at that time, she was ready to marry Brother Xiangxi even if she couldn't get married!
Whenever she thought about the impossibility between her and Brother Xiangxi, she couldn't help crying, and she didn't know how many times she cried.
But then her mother-in-law suddenly changed. Even though she was not young, she still took her marriage very seriously. She only hoped that it would always be her...
*
Wang Chuntao, who was begging for food with a broken bowl in her hand, saw the girls on the donkey cart stunned.
Can women drive?
And he did it so naturally, without any shyness or embarrassment at all!
She curled the corners of her mouth and looked up to see Liu Sheng and her mother-in-law on the other side who were also holding broken bowls. She thought that fortunately she had a husband and an in-laws, so she didn't have to worry about no one wanting her.
Moreover, compared to the past when she had to beg for food alone, it was not bad to have two people working together.
It was Shen Qing and the others who woke her up last time. She should start enjoying life and making trouble in her husband's family as early as possible, otherwise she would suffer in vain!
She raised the corner of her mouth in triumph, but froze when she saw the person on the carriage behind her.
She doesn't recognize the other girls, but she would recognize Jiang Yu even if she turned into ashes!
Jiang Yu, who used to be disheveled and tangled, and who served her cautiously, was often kicked by Liu Sheng, scolded by her mother-in-law, and later even groped by her father-in-law several times;
At this moment, she was wearing brand new and warm cotton clothes, her hair was tied up smoothly, her face was calm, a faint smile hung on the corner of her mouth, and she was talking to the person next to her.
He no longer had the timidity he had before, and became extremely calm and composed.
She took a deep breath and looked at herself unconsciously.
Tattered clothes, straw sandals that show the toes, begging for food with a big belly, a careless mother-in-law in the distance, and a husband who fell into a cesspool!
When Wang Chuntao thought of Liu Sheng coming back from the cesspool, she couldn't help feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit!
It is said that they flopped in the pit for a long time and drank an unknown amount of water. Later, they were pulled out with a stick.
But she felt that he was smelly from the inside out, and the stench was unbearable!
What kind of thing is this that she deliberately and painstakingly snatched?
Is it really worth grabbing?
