After Chen Yaohui and Li entered the house, they saw the village chief sitting in the yard weaving bamboo baskets. Chen Yaohui walked up to the village chief and told the village chief what Li had said. He looked at the village chief worriedly and said, Dad, you Tell me, does this really happen?

After the village chief pondered for a long time, he sighed and said, I have heard people say it before, but our land is high and will not be flooded. Only those areas downstream will be flooded.

Chen Yaohui and Mr. Li breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and the couple laughed happily, Oh! It scared us to death. If this is the case, then what are we afraid of!

The village chief looked at the two people as if they were fools, What are you afraid of? The other people have no food. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of robbing! When people are hungry enough, they can commit murder, arson, and all sorts of bad things. The village chief saw that Chen Yaohui and his wife looked worried and frightened after hearing this, and he couldn't bear it. He turned to comfort them, Don't be too afraid. It's not certain that there will be a natural disaster! And don't be too afraid of those grain merchants. If you believe it, grain merchants will be eager for natural disasters so that they can make a fortune.

Mrs. Li nodded, That's true. Whenever those grain merchants come to collect grain, they don't push the price down. When the grain comes into their hands, they make a lot of money as soon as it changes hands.

The village chief saw that the two of them didn't care, and was worried that they didn't know how to save. Just in case, you should eat more miscellaneous grains and save more grain.

I know. Chen Yaohui and his wife returned home in a happy mood after hearing that they would not be affected by the disaster. When Li told Xiaoyu about letting Xiaoyu carry water, Chen Yaohui waved his hand and said, Forget it! In case of heavy rain, maybe there will be another disaster. Take the water out.

Li Yu decided to keep some water regardless of drought or flood. After Li Mei and the others left, Li Yu cleaned the remaining dozen or so sauce jars at home, filled them with water and stored them in the space.

Li Yu entered the space and took a look, and saw that the items inside were automatically sorted and stored. Li Yu felt that his space was really a rare treasure.

The next day, mother and daughter Li and Ma, as well as a dozen other women whom Li Yu didn't know, came to Li Yu's house to work. Li told Li Yu what the village chief said, and everyone After hearing this, they all breathed a sigh of relief and settled down to work harder.

The days flew by, and it was the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye. Li Yu and Zhou Jia’s bag business was booming, but there were also many imitators and imitators. However, Zhou Jia’s shop was the first to sell bags and already had stable customers. Source, and their styles become faster and sales are still the best.

When the twelfth lunar month arrived, Zhou Jia asked Jixiang to send a message to Li Yu, asking the female workers to stop work on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month and let everyone go back to prepare for the New Year.

On the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, Li Yu began to prepare New Year's goods. He went to the mountains for a trip. When he came back, he made cured chickens and rabbits from the pheasants and rabbits he hunted. He also went to the butcher He's house to buy a whole pig's pork. , use pig trotters, ribs, and pork belly to make bacon trotters, bacon ribs, and bacon.

Then cut the front and rear leg meat and the trough meat into slices, add salt, chili powder, white wine, rock sugar, cumin, woody incense, white angelica... according to a certain proportion and marinate in a basin.

Li Yu took Zhao Di with him and taught her to use bamboo slices to scrape the fat from the pig intestine until only the outer casing remained. Go to the bamboo forest to find a bamboo tube about the same size as the sausage casing, cut it into a small bamboo tube with a length of more than two inches, and use the bamboo tube to can the sausages.

While Zhaodi was filling the sausage, she asked Li Yu curiously, Cousin, I have never seen my mother make this sausage. Did your aunt teach you this?

Li Yu could only respond: Yes! Your aunt taught me. Li Yu gently pinched the filled sausages tightly, tied them into sections with cotton thread, dried them on a bamboo rack, and then marinated them. The prepared bacon, bacon ribs, and bacon trotters are hung on the crossbar in front of the stove and slowly smoked.

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, they cooked Laba porridge. Li Mei and Qian cooked two full pots of Laba porridge. They sent Laba porridge to the helper and Zhou Jia, and brought back jars of Laba porridge. For two days in a row, Li Yu and her brother Both of their mouths were full of the taste of Laba porridge.

On the twenty-second day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhou Jiahe Jixiang came to Li Yu's house in the future, and butcher He happily followed him, pulling a whole pig's pork.

Zhou Jia looked at Li Mei and a dozen other female workers and said with a smile: The Chinese New Year is about to come. I have worked hard these past few months. To express my gratitude, I have prepared some small gifts to thank you all.

After hearing this, Li Mei said happily: Logically speaking, we should be grateful to Mr. Zhou for allowing us to have a good year this year, don't you think so?

Li smiled heartily and said, Yes! Mr. Zhou, will this job still be available next year?

Yes, everyone will start work on the eighth day of the lunar month, and then we will have two days off on the 14th and 15th before officially starting work. Zhou Jia took the red envelope from Jixiang's hand, This is the New Year red envelope given to everyone.

Zhou Jia gave red envelopes to several people and asked Butcher He to cut a piece of meat weighing four to five kilograms for each person.

Everyone was so happy that they couldn't close their mouths. They saluted Zhou Jia gratefully, Mr. Zhou, thank you very much. We will definitely work hard next year.

Butcher He packed up his things and said with a smile: It's a good job for you to sit in the house, out of the rain and out of the sun. At the end of the year, the boss will give you a New Year's gift.

Yes! We also think this job is good, so we want to continue doing it next year.

Everyone happily went back with red envelopes and meat. Jixiang brought the gifts for Li Yu into the house. Li Yu saw cloth, gift boxes and a few furs.

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia embarrassedly, Mr. Zhou, you are too polite to send so many things.

It's just a thought, Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu with a smile. She was still wearing a dark fine cloth dress, and her delicate facial features seemed to have a kind of heroic beauty. Zhou Jia couldn't help but see Li Yuying's red face again. Lips, he quickly raised the account book in his hand to conceal it, and said with a smile: After working hard for several months, it's time for us to share the dividends.

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia with a smile, Okay! After working hard for so long, I finally saw the harvest today.

The two of them entered the main room and sat down. Zhou Jia took out the account book and smiled at Li Yu and said: We started selling bags in mid-October, and it has been exactly two months since today. There are still a few days before the holiday, and there are still a few days left. I will calculate it with you after the new year. In the past two months, in addition to the capital, we have made a total of more than 6,000 taels of silver. Each of us can divide 3,530 taels, not counting the remaining money in several shops. Those bags.”

Li Yu also smiled happily after hearing this and sincerely thanked Zhou Jia, Thank you, Mr. Zhou. If you hadn't used several shops to sell these bags, you would definitely not have made so much money. I will cooperate with you. It’s really worry-free.”

Zhou Jia was overjoyed when she saw Li Yu's joyful expression. She looked at Li Yu with smiles in her eyes and softened her voice unconsciously, I finally lived up to your trust. I'm very happy that you are satisfied.

Li Yu avoided Zhou Jia's eyes, looked down at the account book and said, I still want to thank you.

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu's evasive look and knew that Li Yu had discovered his joy for her. He looked at Li Yu and said with a smile, Then I have a small wish. Can Miss Li help me realize it?

Li Yu looked up at Zhou Jia and smiled, Mr. Zhou, let me hear what you have to say.

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu and said, Can we not be so polite in the future? We should address each other by our first names. Also, I would like to invite you and Ah Qing to Qingshan City to celebrate the Lantern Festival together, okay?

Li Yu thought for a moment and smiled heartily, I will call you Zhou Jia from now on. You can also call me Xiaoyu. Also, why is it the Lantern Festival?

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu with a smile, Because that day is my birthday, and I want to spend it with you.

Li Yu asked in confusion: Where is your family? Aren't they going to accompany you?

Zhou Jia lowered his head and replied in a low voice: My two closest relatives are gone, and the others are all people who want me dead.
