The betrothal gift that Wu Qingyuan proposed to the Lin family really surprised the villagers. After the marriage was settled, the village chief came out from the Lin family, and everyone rushed up to inquire about the betrothal money. Sick.

Oh my god, it's just marrying a younger brother, it's just the bride price, do you need to spend so much money?

When they officially get married, they have to set up wine. According to the customs of Liushu Village, the man has to pay for all the two relatives. When did a little brother become so valuable!

This is the voice of all the villagers, and there are those who envy and hate for a while, but no matter what, this is the truth, the Wu family is so important to the little brother of the Lin family.

No matter how the villagers exclaimed and talked about it, after the marriage was settled, Wu Qingyuan quickly devoted his energy to the business of the carbon kiln. He spent so much money during this period, he had to find a way to make money, otherwise there would be more All the old ones will be defeated.

It’s November now, and the weather has gradually started to cool down. It won’t be long before it will snow, the river will freeze, and the severe winter that everyone dislikes will begin, and it won’t be warm until March.

All the carbon that was burnt before was piled up in the vacant warehouse that was covered in the backyard. All the rooms were already full, and we had to find a way to sell some as soon as possible, otherwise there would be no place to put the carbon that was burned later.

The carbon kiln is still in charge of the Chen family and his son, Lin Laogen, Zhang Dazhu and others, and some temporary workers continue to burn, Wu Qingyuan started running outside every day to sell his own carbon.

Within a hundred miles of Shiqiao Town, customers with large demand for carbon, such as wealthy families, restaurants, inns, etc., are basically monopolized by a few employees engaged in carbon burning business. It is not so easy for him to get a share of the pie .

Therefore, Wu Qingyuan paid attention to the scattered people such as the grocery store, the surrounding villagers, etc. No matter how monopolized by those outsiders, there is still oil and water, and he only has three carbon kilns, and the amount of carbon burned is only so much , I am not afraid that it will not be sold out in the end.

However, it is impossible for retail investors to sell them one by one. Therefore, in addition to running from grocery store to customer, Wu Qingyuan chose the agency method commonly used by modern companies. The peddler traded with the promise of profit sharing, and let these be his salesmen to help sell carbon.

This may make a little less money, but it saves a lot of effort. After all, unlike those outsiders who have fixed customer sales channels, he has just started, so he can only start like this.

However, what Wu Qing didn't expect was that this method was more successful than he had imagined. Those village peddlers whom he had found to earn a penny for selling a catty of carbon as he said were going all out to fool him. People in the village buy it.

Anyway, the charcoal quality of Wu Qingyuan's family is not worse than those of those employees. They can earn one penny for a catty, and ten pennies for ten catties. A family needs to use one or two hundred catties of charcoal in a winter. A successful family of flickering is worth a few hundred pennies. A village has at least a few hundred households. Fucking a few more f*cking families can make more money than the shopkeeper in the town. Anyone who refuses to do such an easy job is a fool!

Seeing these people working so hard to help him sell, Wu Qingyuan was also very happy in his heart, no one would think they earned too much money.

This is why he only finds one family in each village to sell charcoal. There is no competition, and the huge profits that can be easily obtained are enough for these people to show their greatest potential to help him sell charcoal, with twice the result with half the effort.

While busy with the carbon kiln business, Wu Qingyuan naturally did not forget his sweetheart, A Mo. The most satisfying life is a double harvest of work and love.

Last time he promised to give Amo a few cookbooks, but the recipes in his space were all modern, and the ancients couldn't understand them at all. Amo couldn't read, and Lin Tianbao couldn't translate them for him.

Therefore, I temporarily told Amo to learn more words with Lin Tianbao first, and after dealing with the business of the carbon kiln every day, he took time to sit at the Lin's house for a while, and met the young man who was thinking about it, and at night he began to translate the recipes. Brother Zhou has something.

It’s just that men in ancient times imprisoned women and children because of their male chauvinism and rights. Brother Zhou can’t always watch when he gets married. It’s always good to teach him more. of.

Due to the different and limited kitchen tools in ancient and modern times, he also made choices when translating. He only copied what could be made here and translated it into the text here, and also cut out the pictures inside, and finally organized and synthesized them.

The words in the book are very ugly, but the pictures are exquisitely cut, pasted and stitched carefully, Wu Qingyuan wrote every word on every page with such care, and his eyes are so gentle.

If people who knew him like this saw him, they would be so shocked that a big stone could be stuffed into their mouths, and the iron-blooded tough guy would turn into a homely man with soft fingers. The power of love is really inconceivable...

Time flies by, and the end of the year is approaching in a blink of an eye.

The charcoal kiln Wu Qingyuan has stopped and does not continue to burn. It is only a few months when the business of burning carbon can make money every year. Before the end of the year, everyone should have enough carbon to stockpile. out.

After several months of busy work, the fires of the three charcoal kilns have never been cut off. Much sweat has been put in, and the harvest is huge.

The method of enticing people to sell with benefits was very successful. In order to make money, the agreed village households and shopkeepers worked very hard. Although they did not persuade all the people in the surrounding villages to buy Wu Qingyuan’s carbon, two or three hundred households in a village still Seventy or eighty of them were brought over, and the total number of households in the ten surrounding villages is seven to eighty hundred. This number is commendable.

And the main target of those shopkeepers is the people in the town, and the town has a larger base of people. In the end, relying on these people, plus the customers who went out by themselves, they earned a total of more than 600 taels.

After deducting the money for selling the villagers, as well as the purchase of wood, and the wages of the carbon kiln workers, etc., Wu Qingyuan finally calculated that he made a total net profit of 500 taels this time!

This may not sound like a large amount, but you must know that those charcoal kilns outside Yuan sell much more carbon than him every year, and the final net profit is only about 1000 taels. He has three small charcoal kilns.

But the reason why he can earn so much is thanks to his ability. A catty of Qinggang charcoal is 15 Wen, fruit wood charcoal is 8 Wen, and the cost purchase price of the two is 7 Wen for Qinggangmu and 3 Wen for fruit wood. Half of the selling price, and his large amount of ripening allowed him to save a lot of costs, so it's not surprising that he earned so much.

Of course, only Wu Qingyuan knows how much he has earned, and no one else can figure it out. However, his carbon sales are so popular that the villagers in Liushu Village also buy them from him. He can guess the price by calculating the price. Until he made a lot of money.

Zhang Dazhu, the Chen family's father and son, and Lin Laogen's brothers who helped him here also received a lot of wages, each at least ten taels. The villagers who inquired were really envious and envious.

They have worked so hard to grow the land for a year, and it is only a dozen or so taels of silver. The landlords of the tenant fields still have to collect their land rent and grain.

Sadness turns into sadness, envy turns into envy, the most lively Chinese New Year of the year is coming, and every household is happily preparing things for the holiday.

Wu Qingyuan naturally also got ready, Zhou Ge'er and Zhang Dazhu's wedding was approaching, the Zhang family was worried about organizing the banquet, and he also had to worry about organizing the dowry.

In addition, in the past two months, he has been running around all day to sell carbon, and he and A Mo have less time to meet alone, even if they meet each other, they end in a hurry, and now they are a little empty. Tomorrow, I will go to town to do a dowry for Brother Zhou, and I just take Amo to the excitement.

Brother Zhou also has to be taken out for a walk. This kid is too obedient. In the past few months, except for going out to wash clothes, or coming to the charcoal kiln with Amo to cook for everyone, it is rare to go out at ordinary times, and has been obediently staying in the Make wedding clothes at home.

Anyway, there were only the two of them in their family, and there was no elder to decide, so there was nothing taboo or unreasonable about him taking Brother Zhou to buy a dowry.

After the decision was made, he made a list of all the dowries to be bought that night, and early the next morning he took Brother Zhou to Lin's house to find A Mo.

"Okay, it just so happens that our family hasn't bought anything for the New Year yet. Uncle will go with you. Tianbao quickly go to the backyard to pull out the cows. Kid Qingyuan, come and help Uncle tie the cart."

Lin Laogen is not an unreasonable person, he still understands the way of young people who don't see each other every day, so he nodded in agreement.

But he still wants to take Lin Tianbao and Erfang's family with him. Apart from buying things for the New Year, it is also to avoid suspicion. My little brother followed me out.

As for Wu Qingyuan's address suddenly changed from the casual Wu brother to "Qingyuan boy" Lin Laogen is also very particular.

In the past, it was fine to call him casually, but now Wu Qingyuan can be regarded as his brother-in-law. If he calls Wu Qingyuan Brother Wu again, what should Wu Qingyuan call him?

Could it be that in the future he calls Wu Qingyuan his brother and Wu Qingyuan calls him his father?Isn't it a joke to spread the word, so the title must be deserved!

"Okay Uncle Lin, sit down and rest, I'll tie the car for you..."

Of course Wu Qingyuan understood his concerns, he had always flattered his father-in-law very well, so he immediately went over to help with a smile and knew the way.

The trolley was fastened, the back basket was taken, and all the things that should be brought were brought. On the trolley, Lin Laogen drove the cow's palm rope, accompanied by a few children happily shouting "Chinese New Year!" The carts and oxen walked slowly towards Shiqiao Town.
