Chapter 756 The tool brother who dotes on the heroine 22
"Fourth Brother, what's the matter with you coming here at noon?"
The old man, who was playing chess by himself under the persimmon tree in the courtyard, saw Jian Yan from a distance, and when someone came in, he smiled and asked in a loud voice.
Jian Yi raised his hand and waved, nodded, and said with a smile: "Well, there is something I want to talk to the clan leader about."
The old man pointed to the long bench opposite the small table with his cattail leaf fan and said, "Sit here."
"Hey, what's in the clay pot you're carrying?"
Jian Yi stepped forward and handed the clay pot to the patriarch, "This is sweet soup. Patriarch, wait a moment, I will go back to the house and get a bowl."
When the old man heard that it was sweet soup, his eyes suddenly lit up. He opened the small lid on the clay pot and took a look. He lowered his head and smelled it. He raised his head and smiled and cursed: "If anything happens, just tell your uncle and grandpa, why do you bring this here?"
, look at the sweetness, how much sugar does it cost, you prodigal son."
Jian Jian did not respond to the old man's words, and went into the kitchen in a familiar manner, took out a bowl and spoon from the cupboard, scooped out a bowl for the old man and gave it to him, then took out the clay pot from his arms and put it on the ground.
There was no way, the old man's beloved chess set was placed on his small table, and there was really no room to put the clay pots.
The old man scooped up the sweet soup and took a sip. He suddenly smiled and said, "Where did this sweet soup come from? Did Sanniang make it? I never saw it before. She has such skills."
"No, I made this." Jian Yi sat down on the bench and smiled while watching the old man happily eating the sweet soup.
The old man didn't say anything after hearing this. He just drank the sweet soup slowly and cherished it. When the sweet soup bottomed out, he stood up briefly and wanted to serve him another bowl. The old man quickly moved the bowl away and waved his hand: "No, no need."
Yes, keep some, my old lady has never tasted such a delicious sweet soup."
"Yes." Jian Yi held the clay pot he had just picked up in his arms with one hand, then took the bowl from the old man's hand and put it back into the kitchen.
"Hey, you don't need to wash the dishes, just leave them there." The old man said worriedly.
"knew."
After Jian Yi sat back on the bench, the old man finally felt in the mood to ask, "Tell me, what's the matter?" As he spoke, he looked at Jian Yi suspiciously.
Jian Yanhan scratched his head naively and hesitated for a long time before finally explaining his purpose.
"You mean the sweet soup just now?"
The simple chicken nodded vigorously as if pecking at rice, "Yes, that's the one. The patriarch also ate it just now. It tastes good. I believe that if you sell it for money, you will definitely make a lot of money."
"Then you can just do it yourself. Why do you need the village to plant fruit trees and do it together?" The old man looked at Jian Yi in confusion, his brows furrowed tightly.
"Hehe." Jian Yi raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose, pretending to be embarrassed and said: "Chief, if I only sell it once or twice, I will definitely stop talking about it."
"Moreover, I think this is a good job and I can continue doing it for a long time. In this way, I can eat alone and rely on the guys in the mountains to make a living. Looking at the guys, they are still the same as before. I am like this
I can’t live with it.”
The old man tilted his head and squinted his eyes slightly, and asked: "Why did you feel so bad when I didn't see you selling and eating the wild game in the mountains?"
"That's different." Jian Yi said anxiously.
"Why is it different?"
Jian Yi took a deep breath and retorted quickly: "Those game meats also depend on my strength. When I meet the big guys, I have to fight with my life to get them. I just won't give them away. Besides, the game meats
I can’t buy it every day because it’s unstable, but canned fruits are different. Except in winter, there are plenty of fruits in the mountains at other times, so I can buy them every day.”
"Isn't it also about strength?" the old man asked relentlessly.
Jian Yi glanced at the old man with a helpless look, and said to the old man, "Forget it, let's not talk about this. In this way, I will settle a score with the old man."
"If I do it by myself, I have too many things to worry about. The first and most troublesome thing is picking fruits. The mountains in the village are too big. Although there are a lot of fruits, they are too scattered and I can't put them down in the ground.
Shi'er spends all day and night digging for fruits in the mountains. If you want to invite someone from the village
If people pick it, if they see that I have made money, they will start a new one and sell it themselves. If it is just one or two, it will be fine. If many people in the village are like this, then everyone will compete for the price. You are too low.
One penny is cheaper than mine, so no one can make any money."
"But it will be different if the villages work together as a partnership. If the scale is large, the quality of the output can be guaranteed, and the price will be stable if they are sold together. I believe those caravans will be more willing to take them out to sell, even if each family can get a share at the beginning.
The money you get is not much, but over time it will accumulate into a big sum.”
Jian Jian didn't make any big arguments with the old man, he just talked about simple interests.
Sure enough, the benefits are touching. After Jian Yi analyzed it carefully, the old man immediately understood Jian Yi's thoughts and calculations. He raised his hand and slapped Jian Yi on the shoulder hard, and said with a smile: "Good boy, why didn't I see this before? You are quite smart.
Yes."
Jian Yi touched his shoulder and laughed. When the old man saw this, he slapped her again and said angrily: "You're still laughing. Tell me what you want to do and I'll think about it."
Jian Yan stopped making trouble and told her the plan she had planned on the way back.
"After all, the patriarch's job of planting fruit trees is a job. I think there are many people in the village who don't want to bother us, but instead think we are nosy."
"How about this, we will adopt a voluntary model for this matter. Those who want to join can sign up here, and then everyone will pool money to build a workshop in the village. From now on, the income from the cans sold by the workshop will be based on what everyone has pooled together.
This portion of money.
We go to the town to buy the sugar; we find people to make the jars; as for the raw materials, we collect the fruits from the villagers at low prices; for the helpers in the workshops, such as washing the fruits and making soup, we collect them from the families who contribute a share.
If you choose someone to be a human being, of course you have to give them wages."
"After everyone sells the first batch of canned fruits and makes money, the clan leader can rent the land in the village to everyone and divide the land for everyone to plant fruit trees. In this way, in two years, everyone will not need to go to the mountains to search, and
The output of cans can also be more.”
"..."
Jian Jian explained to the old man the multi-person joint venture company and factory model of later generations, drew a big picture, and looked into the future. It took half an hour to completely convince the old man.
"I was hunting in the mountains a few days ago and found a small puddle. The water coming out of the small puddle was particularly sweet. The water used for the sweet soup that Chief Gang drank was spooned out from there. Our fruit
The cans made with the water there will taste better and sell for more money. I will pick up Rokuro from school in the afternoon and wait for the clan leader to come and take a look?"
"good."
The old man has been the head of the clan and village for decades. He has had many dealings with the officials and gentry in the town. He has a long experience and a lot of knowledge. After being explained in such detail by Jian Jian, he already knew it. After thinking about it, he felt that
This can be done.
For a moment, the old man looked at Jian Yi differently, filled with admiration and relief.
