Chapter 111: more polite
Chapter 111 is more polite
Two days on the road, that is to say, the real hunting time is only two days.
But the harvest is very reasonable.
Forty or so people hunted a total of six wild sheep, eight wild boars, and twenty pheasants and hares and other small things.
The wild goats and wild boars are going to be handed over, and the twenty or so pheasants and hares are divided among the people who participated in the hunting.
Lin Mo, Hu Ling, and Zhou Hansheng didn't want any of them, and they just gave one to the other participants.
Everyone was very happy, took the prey, said goodbye to Lin Mo and others, and went home cheerfully.
As long as you pay attention, you can see that the villagers' attitude towards Zhou Hansheng is more respectful and admirable than Lin Mo and Hu Ling. Even with that, he was more polite to Hu Ling.
During the hunting, Zhou Hansheng's display of abilities did not surprise the villagers, and they were all in awe and admiration.
Zhou Hansheng is a friend of the Zhao family. He admires Zhao Xiang very much in words, and is also very close to Hu Ling. All the villagers naturally look up to the Zhao family.
The Zhao family has such a powerful friend, who can not be afraid? Besides, if you need help with anything in the future, you can still ask the Zhao family.
If you offend someone, don't even think about it!
Hu led them back smoothly, and the Zhao family was already very happy. It didn't matter if they didn't get any prey. They killed two ducks and stewed them that night, and everyone celebrated well.
Zhou Hansheng took a moment to say to Zhao Liya: "In fact, if you hunt seriously, you can get more than three times more prey than this, but I think your village can't hand over too many prey, otherwise I'm afraid it will be difficult to do business next time, so I don't How to play, just hunt so much casually."
So, don't underestimate his ability! If he tried his best, he would get much more than this!
Zhao Liya originally had the same idea, but what Zhou Hansheng said touched her heart, she nodded and smiled gratefully: "Brother Zhou is thoughtful, it should be like this! We are ordinary villagers in our village, and we can hunt so many prey this time. It's all good luck!"
Tomorrow, Lin Mo and the others will go to deliver the prey to the county government, and they will have to complain about the difficulties, emphasizing the good luck this time
Zhou Hansheng nodded with a smile, and said, "I'll come back in the twelfth lunar month, and let's go hunting again in the mountains."
There is no need to hide your clumsiness, and strive for a bumper harvest.
Zhao Liya nodded happily: "Okay, okay, we are waiting for Brother Zhou!"
"Well," Zhou Hansheng also nodded, and said again: "I have to go to Zhong Jing's place tomorrow, and it will take a while to come."
Zhao Liya was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "So fast!"
Recovering, the words seemed a bit too ambiguous, and she quickly remedied: "Uh, I mean, Brother Zhou has helped us and our village so much in the hunt this time, and I haven't thanked Brother Zhou properly yet."
Zhou Hansheng smiled: "Then next time."
"oh"
Feeling down and depressed for no reason, Zhao Liya didn't know what to say for a while.
Zhou Hansheng was also reluctant to part with him. After a moment of silence, he said, "Is there anything you want? You can bring it when I come over. Want flour, right? Anything else?"
Zhao Liya couldn't help being amused, and Zhanyan nodded: "If it's convenient, brother Zhou can bring us some flour. Others, nothing else is fine. By the way, if there are good dried seafood, bring some, as well. Abalone, shrimp, scallops, etc., Brother Zhou can buy them for us, and I will give Brother Zhou money when the time comes."
Zhou Hansheng said with a smile: "If you buy these things from the fisherman's house very cheaply, they won't be worth a lot of money. You just need to stay at your house for a few days and eat a few good meals. You don't have to pay for it. I will bring it for you. "
Zhao Liya thought about it, when the time comes, she will have sugar at home, both white sugar and brown sugar, so just give him some more, so she doesn't insist on it anymore, and thanked her with a happy smile.
The next morning, after Zhou Hansheng and his party left the village, five people including Lin Mo, Zhao Xiang, and Uncle Lin gathered together for the first village chief meeting, and discussed the matter of delivering prey to the county government.
Lin Mo led the team, took seven or eight people with him, and sent the prey in two ox carts.
Zhao Liya grabbed a chicken, twenty eggs in a bamboo basket, and fresh spinach, chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, garlic sprouts, white radish, and chestnuts in the small basket, and asked Lin Mo and the others to deliver them to Yu Gongcao's wife.
Yu Gongcao’s daughter-in-law loves these, and she will be happy for a long time if she is given a piece of garlic for free.
Because she never instigated Yu Gongcao and Yancun people to ask for this or that, Zhao Liya felt that it was very worthwhile to give her occasional local specialties produced in the fields and vegetable gardens.
Sure enough, Yu Gongcao's daughter-in-law was very happy, smiling from ear to ear, and kept saying that they were too polite, why did they send so many dishes? I can't finish it for days
Yu Gongcao was also very happy, and helped them with a few good words, and the matter was finally settled smoothly. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, you can wait for a good year in peace.
Two days later is an auspicious day suitable for starting work, and the sugar mill will start working on this day.
Zhao Liya, Hu Ling, Zhao Xiang, Qu Yutao, Luo Shuyan, Lin Mo, Yu Xiaofang, etc. all passed away. Even Widow Qu and Aunt Li Shiyi dragged Mrs. Deng and the two children among the villagers of Zaihu Village to watch lively.
The whole village of Zaihu Village is really more lively than Chinese New Year!
Excitement with tension, tension with hope, hope with a bit of cautious anxiety.
All in all, everyone is looking forward to the stars and the moon and finally looking forward to this moment, but they are afraid that it will not happen! No, no, no, it will definitely be done. Mr. Zhao is the number one scholar. He has been a high-ranking official. How could it be impossible for his family to succeed? Oh, if this can be done, then in the future, you won’t have to worry about not having a job to do, and not worrying about not getting rich. Besides, it’s close to the water, and the moon is the first, and the sugar is produced. Everyone can buy some cheaply and try it. Bar
Such a good thing! But it must be done!
Bodhisattva bless, **** bless, ancestor bless.
Zaihu Village was so excited that he spoke incoherently, worrying about gains and losses, laughing and sighing for a while. Even the children who love to play and laugh most on weekdays are affected by the atmosphere of the adults. Few people dare to laugh and make trouble in such a lively scene.
Bundles of sugar cane are cut down and taken from the fields to the mills. Next to the simple sugar press made of stone and wood, five bundles of sugarcane are sent into the middle of the stone roller, driving the buffalo to walk around in circles, driving the stone roller to crush, and the turbid sugarcane juice oozes out like a trickle. Gather in the groove and flow into the barrel below.
