Old Mrs. Xu was also very satisfied. "Xiao Qin, I'll leave the subsequent matters of building the house to you. You will be responsible for following up on it for me. If you have any questions, please let me know at any time. Do you have time?"
"I'm free, I'm free! Auntie, are you sure you want to leave it to me?" Normally, shouldn't this matter be left to one's own people?
"Auntie, don't worry! Just go ahead and do it. The sketch of the house will be drawn up later, and I'll just wait for it to be built and you to move in!" Old Mrs. Xu patted Qin Da's shoulder. Qin Da was so excited that he couldn't hold back as he was holding a bunch of things.
The weather will soon turn colder, which means that the income from sea fishing will become less and less. Now that he has this job, Qin Da feels that his family can finally have a good New Year!
Old Mrs. Xu didn't know that Qin Da had thought so far ahead. She was now considering whether she should buy all the food for the formal construction of the house and the day of raising the beams.
You can come early in the morning to buy chicken, duck, fish, etc., and buy rice and flour first.
As for the seasonings, Old Mrs. Xu didn't even consider the ones in Xu Ning's box, but simply chose from the goods available in the county grocery store.
Xu Ning followed Old Lady Xu around the rice, flour, grain and oil shop and finally understood why they had to flee famine to the south.
Not only is there more rain in the south, but food is also much cheaper.
However, this is only relative to the prices in the north, and the actual income of the people has not changed.
Food is expensive in the north. It is expensive to sell and it is expensive to buy.
Food in the south is cheap. It is cheap to sell and cheap to buy.
In fact, class and poverty have not changed, and farmers in the South even earn less.
Xu Ning walked along the way, observing the prices and popular items in the market.
Xu Ning bought a variety of agricultural products, mostly vegetables, but there were also sweet potatoes, but they were not sold to many people and he could buy a large basket for just a few cents.
I didn't see anyone selling yams. "Grandma, do you think it's feasible to open a barbecue restaurant in the county?"
The weather will soon get cold, and eating some barbecue in the damp and cold weather in the south will definitely keep you warm.
Moreover, the ingredients are easy to buy, and there are many things that can be grilled. As long as Xu Ning has a good grasp of the ingredients, he is not afraid of others learning this business.
"Grandma, when the time comes, we'll grow some yams and then we can bring them to the store to roast!"
"Daya, eating too much barbecue will cause you to get a sore throat."
"Drink herbal tea!" When Xu Ning traveled to southern cities before, he was often recommended to drink herbal tea.
At first she thought that only people in the south needed to drink it, but after living in the south for a while, she really felt the "humidity" and "heat". She closed her eyes and drank the herbal tea for a few days and found that it really worked!
"Miss Xu, the herbal tea you're talking about is the water made by boiling plantain and zheergen?"
"Yes, there is Houttuynia cordata, but I don't know about the others. Uncle Qin, do people in Xianyu Village also drink herbal tea?"
"We call it 'reducing fire soup'. This is the first time I've heard the name 'herbal tea'. It's quite appropriate!"
"Grandma, look, with the heat-reducing soup here, there will definitely be more people eating barbecue!"
"Daya, don't think you can do anything at once. Our house hasn't been built yet! Things have to be done one by one. You can't just focus on the beginning and ignore the end!" Xu Da and the others had been acting as background people. Seeing Xu Ning repeatedly persuading Old Lady Xu, Xu Da couldn't help but interrupt.
"Yes, Daya, the land your grandma just bought hasn't been leveled yet."
"Daya, be obedient."
Xu Ning was silent for a while. She took a look at the pile of things she bought, most of which she needed.
"Da Ya, how about we go back and discuss this tonight? If we have the time and manpower, we can consider it?"
