The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 589: The Vengeful Manager Zhou

While Yan Yu was waiting anxiously, Yan Xiangheng finally arrived.

The people in front have already cleared the shortest road between Huju and Xizhou. They know clearly what time of the journey and where there is a resting place with leeward wind.

Yan Xiangheng: "...these people who came with us are from everywhere, Gu Feng, Long Xing...even the poor families in Fucheng came with us. When we set out, we heard that there were still many people coming to Huju. , Counting the days, it won’t be cold for a few days by the time they bring the cinders back home.”

What he wanted to say was that he really didn't need to go this way. It was cold and the road was far away, so it was not easy to go back and forth.

"It's still cold in Guanzhou in March. In previous years, it was better in April. But on this day this year, the old people in Guanzhou can't say it." Yan Laoer said: "It's so early for our family to light the kang this year. It's autumn." I use it when the time comes, and I light the stove on weekdays. There is no shortage of firewood for cooking. It is free to come to Xizhou to pull cinders. The method of making briquettes has also been passed down. Pull them back and mix them with the soil. The quantity is doubled and it is resistant to burning. It can still be stored, but it is not much better than firewood. Yes, I'll do it too!"

Yan Laoer compared his feelings with others and felt that there was no need to even think about this advantage and he had to take advantage of it.

"Brother, do you think they have a long way to go? It's cold and they're suffering. Even if there are two or three people in the family, there's no one who can help them. Even if Cinder doesn't pay for it and lets them pretend to be whatever they want, they won't be able to bring much back with them?" Yan Yu asked .

"That's right!" Yan Xiangheng said quickly: "That's it."

The father and daughter looked at each other, and Yan Laoer said: "Logically speaking, it is the winter season for Guanzhou people. We have enough autumn vegetables at home, and there is enough firewood to burn. The small kang is lit, and the small snow scene is watching, tsk! How beautiful it is! But it also depends on the year. Like this year, the winter is long and cold, and the snow is so heavy that the house will collapse at every turn. Who can stay here?

When people are cold, they eat more, waste food rations, clear snow to repair houses, work hard and spend money...

My eldest nephew, this guy, is just busy talking about living. Most people don’t have much ability and don’t earn much. Why do they always say that we country people work in the fields and have no other livelihood besides farming? No, if you pull the cinders back and burn them, they can burn them for a while. How much firewood will you save in this period? At least a few dozen cash, which is a lot. Where do you want them to earn these dozens of cash at this time? If you can save, you will earn! "

Yan Xiangheng nodded heavily: "My uncle is right, but my nephew is thinking too little."

"Your father asked you to come out just because he wanted you to see this. Our village is different from theirs. We..."

Yan Laoer was stuck. He wanted to say that our village is enjoying a good life because of our family, but he felt a little embarrassed to say this from his own mouth. Just when he was embarrassed, Yan Yu took over the words: "Our village is living well. It’s good because we robbed Beirong!”

Yan Laoer:......

Although...but...it has some relationship, can you just say it so straightforwardly? !

Yan Xiangheng looked at the waiter.

I saw the waiter with a round face and said seriously: "The people in the village are all hardworking. Why don't you see that we lived a good life before? Now every family has more than enough money, as well as big livestock like cattle and sheep. Let's wait for the spring to bring these." When cattle go to the ground, they will save money. No matter how much effort we have, we may not have the energy to open up a few more acres of land. Brother, do the math. We will open up wasteland for three years without paying taxes. We can grow whatever we plant ourselves. We will plant the land fully. When autumn comes, we will How much grain and autumn vegetables have to be harvested!”

Yan Yu's eyes shone with anticipation, unusually bright.

Yan Xiangheng thought along her train of thought and was filled with longing.

Unconsciously he said: "The cattle and sheep transported back this time have not been divided yet..."

Yan Yu was anxious: "Why can't we make a decision? Didn't we all agree when you left, brother? The regulations are all ready-made, so we will use the previous ones in our village."

Yan Xiangheng's ears turned red: "It was a few village elders who said... Do we need to send some of our cattle and sheep to the government agencies... My elder brother thinks what the village elders said is reasonable. After all, the militia should be supplied by the government agencies... …”

"The village elders are so confused!" Yan Yu lamented and spoke quickly: "It's true that the government is in charge of us. If it hadn't opened, there would be nothing wrong with us eating and drinking the cattle and sheep, but we would have made a profit long ago. Oh! We didn’t keep any of the coal that we brought back. Those cattle and sheep should be ours!”

"They should be distributed like we pick meat on the mountain. Oops! The village elders are confused!" Yan Yu said again depressedly: "Then where are the cattle and sheep now? Are they sent to the Huju government office?"

"No, it's still in our village. Several village elders said that we'll keep it for now and we'll discuss how to give it away when you get back." Yan Xiangheng said hurriedly.

Yan Yu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again: "It's okay, it's okay, it's fine in our village."

Yan Laoer suddenly said: "What's the use in our village? If you divide it, you can divide it. If you don't, wait until your uncle or master thinks of it..."

"Yeah!" Yan Yuteng stood up, "I have to go back!"

"Leaving tonight or tomorrow morning?" Yan Laoer asked.

Yan Yu hehe Zhile said: "Otherwise, my father knows me well, so I have to find a reason to leave. My eldest brother just sent it here. It's not good if I don't accept it. Haha, I'd better go on."

"Let me read uncle's letter again." Yan Yu took out the letter, and the two of them read it from beginning to end again.

"Remember? If you remember, just listen to your uncle and burn it immediately." Yan Laoer said.

Yan Yu worriedly read it again to make sure he remembered it firmly, and then threw the letter into the stove.

"I'm really afraid of missing one, so I want to write it down." Yan Yu said pitifully.

Yan Laoer waved his hand quickly: "No, if your uncle's letter is seen by others, we don't know whether we can go back."

"Yes, so the insurance is still burned."

Yan Yu's expression became serious: "Dad, I can handle the few things that my uncle told me. Only you... have to deal with the Qi Wang Mansion again."

"Hey! Dad, it's easy. Someone from Gufeng has come. I can just drum up support from the side. Your uncle has said that we can't show up directly for this matter. On the surface, it has nothing to do with us. What Dad has to do is to cooperate throughout the process. At most, he can help to make connections and introduce Zhou Daguanshi to people."

Yan Yu asked worriedly: "Zhou Daguanshi, you won't bear a grudge, right?"

...

Did Zhou Daguanshi bear a grudge?

He must bear a grudge!

He gave out a heavy gift, what did he get in return? What!

So he didn't give a good face to the people from Gufeng City.

He took the money, ate the food, and drank the wine.

But I just don't talk about the past.

I strangled you to death at the beginning, strangled you to death at the beginning, and you can't hold it to death!

“Manager Yan, Manager Zhou from the Qi Wang Mansion is too difficult to deal with!” The man from Gu Fenglai is the master’s advisor, and also a financial advisor. He has to do something big, so he brought enough money with him. But this little devil in front of the King of Hell is too difficult to deal with.

Yan Laoer looked sad and sighed: "Alas! This matter is my fault. In order to earn more benefits for Guanzhou, I forced them to accept that they would let me pull coal slag for free, and I took advantage of the loopholes. There is no certainty..."

Gu Feng's financial advisor also said: "How can this be blamed on Manager Yan? Manager Yan is also to share the worries of our prince. Even the people of Gufeng have come here... The cold winter is hard!"

"Because of this... I offended Manager Zhou. We were originally very close, and even brought our children to eat at the same table... Let's not talk about it! Let's not talk about it!"

Yan Laoer waved his hand, moved closer, and whispered: "I'll give you an idea, you try it... You say this, that, and that..."
