Chapter 82 The Envious Villagers (2/2)



Qian Chunhua agreed with a smile. Although Mrs. Dong told Qian Chunhua not to forget to look for her, a wealthy family like them must have their own tokens and would not give out tokens. Their friendship was limited to this, and Qian Chunhua had some self-awareness.

At the entrance of the village in the distance, the villagers of Huanghualing stood at the entrance despite the severe cold, secretly looking at the row of carriages.

When the villagers heard that Madam Dong and her group had entered the tea shop, they started to peek outside. However, the two guards standing guard outside the shop prevented all the villagers in Huanghualing from acting rashly.

It was the first time they had seen so many carriages.

"Qian Chunhua must have become rich if she met a noble person." Zhou Guifen was full of envy. Why didn't she think of opening a tea shop next to the official road?

Zhao Yongqiang and Li Cuihong, a couple who seldom went out since their marriage, heard that a distinguished person had visited the tea shop at the entrance of the village. Despite the freezing cold weather, they went out of the house and watched the fun at the entrance of the village.

The rows of carriages and the guards standing at the door let everyone know that the people in the shop were of great importance. How could such a good thing only happen to Qian Chunhua, a dull person?

Li Cuihong curled her lips and glanced at Zhao Yongqiang. The couple had evil thoughts again. That piece of land could obviously be theirs.

After Madam Dong and her group left, Qian Li took Qingfeng back to the tea shop. Following Qian Li were the village women from Huanghualing.

The men from Huanghualing were too embarrassed to follow behind, and so were Zhao Yongqiang and his wife, so they went home in shame.

"Sister Hua, are those people here to drink tea?" Sun Hongying was surprised.

Many people in the village were not optimistic about this tea shop since it was built and opened for business. Unexpectedly, it still has business every day and even received a large order today.

Qian Chunhua smiled and nodded, "Yes, not only did I drink tea, I also ate noodles and buns."

"Really? I'm afraid you can make a lot of money." Zhou Guifen asked curiously.

Qian Chunhua did not hide or exaggerate. It would be unreasonable if his family did not eat meat every day. "I made a little money, about two yuan."

"Ah." The villagers who followed in took a deep breath. They earned so much from just one meal, much more than an adult man could earn.

Adult men who went to work in the city could earn about 40 wen a day for hard labor, and 80 wen a day at most for being an accountant. Unless they became a shopkeeper, they could get about 10 wen a day.

I didn't expect that Qian Chunhua could earn two cents just by cooking some meals.

Qian Chunhua didn't understand what everyone was thinking, so he smiled and explained, "It's hard to meet such a customer. Usually I only make ten or so coins."

Everyone nodded again. This was normal. If Qian Chunhua didn't make a few cents every day, he would have made a fortune. If everyone came to build shops along the official road, it would be chaos.

Although everyone understands it, there are even more people who envy it. For a rural woman who has a little income at home, earning ten cents a day is still very enviable. Besides, isn't cooking an easy task for rural people?

If you meet a noble person once, you can earn two hundred thousand yuan for a meal. How much can you earn in a year? For a while, many people were interested in it.

"By the way, Hongying, do you know how many people in our village raise chickens?" Qian Chunhua remembered that he needed to stock up more eggs.

"A lot, of course. Every household in Huanghualing raises a lot of chickens. Well, everyone hopes to exchange these eggs for some pocket money," Zhou Guifen said without waiting for Sun Hongying to answer.

Qian Chunhua smiled and said, "You can sell the eggs to me in the future."

This is a mutually beneficial thing. The villagers do not need to make a special trip to the county to sell eggs, and Qian Chunhua does not need to go to the county town to buy eggs. Buyers and sellers can trade directly in Huanghualing.

Chickens of this era are not fed with feed, so they can be considered organic eggs. Qian Chunhua prefers her family to eat this kind of eggs.
