After Song Yuehua came out of You Mansion, she first went to Gao Wazi and Zhu Pingan.
Only Gao Wazi was here today, so Song Yuehua asked, "Where is Ping An?"
"He is injured." said Gao Wazi.
"Are you injured?" Song Yuehua asked hurriedly what happened.
The Zhu family meat stall opened on the second day of the Chinese New Year, and the meat stall next door also opened early.
Last year, the price cuts by those stalls failed to bring down Zhu’s meat stall, and they continued to cut prices at the beginning of this year.
As a result, Tangyuan went directly to Zhu's meat stall and asked for dozens of kilograms of meat.
At the beginning, Tangyuan just sold meat when selling goods.
Later, Zhang Dandan asked Tangyuan to learn from Zhou Xiaohu and learn how to recognize meat.
Tangyuan knows a lot about which part of the food has what texture and how to cook it best, and he speaks the truth, so the guests are naturally happy.
With door-to-door delivery and good service, many people are willing to buy meat from Tangyuan, so the Zhu family’s meat stall naturally has no worries about sales.
The butcher next door was helpless and threw bricks into Zhu's yard in the middle of the night.
Zhu Ping'an was hit when he went to the toilet at night, leaving a big cut on his head and bleeding heavily.
By the time Gao Wazi chased out, the man had already run away.
There were many children in the room. That man could resort to such dirty means just for business. If they really hit someone on the head, it could be fatal!
"Can't you be specific about which family?" Song Yuehua asked.
Gao Wazi shook his head. It must be one of these butchers, or the plan of several of their families.
"Has the new county magistrate taken office?" Song Yuehua asked.
Gao Wazi said, "I'll be here on the fourth day of the New Year."
“Tsk…”
Song Yuehua thought, then she had to think of other ways.
After leaving the meat stall, Song Yuehua returned to the city gate and found Master Ma.
Ask him to go back later today to pass on a message, asking Tan Xiuxiu to come and pick up the pig tomorrow, and to tell Pei Feng to bring some clothes over tomorrow and stay in the county town for a few days.
After hearing the latter part, Master Ma realized something was wrong, so he asked, "But what happened?"
"I'm fine here, but something happened to my friend, so I want to find someone to take care of him for a few days," Song Yuehua said with a smile, "You don't have to worry."
Master Ma sighed softly, "Although the old man is old, he is not useless. If there is anything I can help with, don't worry about it."
"Don't worry, it's really just a small matter." Song Yuehua smiled helplessly.
After much difficulty, Song Yuehua found Zhu Wenyan at the pig farm. When she learned that she could buy piglets, she was very happy.
Just when he was about to make a big purchase of a large quantity, he calmed down a lot when he heard that one piece only cost 2 taels of silver.
"Will the price drop this year?" Song Yuehua asked.
Zhu Wenyan shook his head. "It's hard to say. It should drop a bit in August and September."
Now that they have piglets, they still have to buy some. Song Yuehua asked for 50 piglets and asked him to deliver them to the village tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
Zhu Wenyan nodded and silently recorded the account book. Seeing that he was silent, Song Yuehua asked, "Are you used to doing this?"
"Adapt..." Zhu Wenyan raised his head and said, then buried his head again.
How unpredictable!
Seeing his slow pace, Song Yuehua said, "Aunt Qin will come over tomorrow. I'll ask her to help you pick the pigs and send them back."
Zhu Wenyan looked at her, hummed for a long time, and lowered his head to write in the account book.
It's over, this guy is not cut out to be a pigherd.
When we returned to the chess hall, Huo Minggui really came and was sitting by the window playing chess with Zhang Rushan.
Huo Minggui sighed, "Brother Zhang, if I didn't know that you came from a poor family and were so good at chess, I would have thought that your title of scholar was bought with money."
Zhang Rushan, "..."
Song Yuehua couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Huo Minggui looked over and waved at her, "Miss Song, I didn't expect you to actually open a chess hall. I wonder how you came up with such an elegant idea?"
Song Yuehua, "..."
Hearing this, Zhang Rushan also laughed.
This person is really annoying.
After returning to the You Mansion and finishing dinner, Song Yuehua took out a small account book and started to do the accounting.
Today we ordered 50 pigs, each weighing 2 taels, which means 100 taels.
Excluding the money used to buy the piglets and the change from the chess club, the family had a total of 470 taels of silver.
School started yesterday. The tuition and accommodation fees for Hua Baoer and Gan Shou, as well as the tuition for children from other villages, and the cost of books and writing materials for children from my own village amounted to about 136 taels.
The school's pens and ink have been used up, and we need to restock them. Some of the prize money also needs to be saved. 136 taels is really not much.
Song Yuehua calculated in the small account book and let out a sigh. She thought, "Let's take it slow. Money has to be saved slowly."
That night, Pei Feng rushed over, sweating all over, and panting as he asked, "Miss, what happened?"
From the time Ma Ye went back to the time he rushed to the pass and the city gate, Song Yuehua couldn't imagine how he got here.
"Didn't I tell you to come tomorrow?" Song Yuehua asked.
"The girl called me, it must be something urgent." Pei Feng's breathing was a little unstable.
Song Yuehua said helplessly, "Did you bring any clothes?"
Pei Feng was a little at a loss.
Fortunately, Pei Feng's body shape was similar to Gao Wazi's. Song Yuehua brought him to Zhu's house. Zhu Ping'an had a white gauze wrapped around his head and looked seriously injured.
"What did the doctor say about your injury?" Song Yuehua asked, staring at the wound.
Zhu Pingan also said honestly, "Tell me not to get wet and not to bump into anything again so it can heal."
That's not serious.
Song Yuehua pointed at Pei Feng and said, "I invited Pei Feng to help you catch the bad guys. He will help you keep an eye on them these few nights."
