The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family - #413 - Chapter 413: SledgeSled
The snow still hasn’t stopped, and it’s getting bigger and bigger.
Yan Yu was worried about the food they bought, so she went out in the wind and snow.
She only brought cats with her when she went out this time.
When I came back, I found that Gouzhu was very attached to her, wagging his tail and whining at her, and when he saw her going out, he followed her closely and never left her.
“Go on, I’ll go find Uncle Qi to get you a sledge later, and I’ll depend on you when you go out!” Yan Yu rubbed its head.
It barked, and its tail wagged even more.
Yan Yu saw several cars going to Huju to collect firewood, and ran over against the wind.
“Big iron brother and second iron brother, are you going to Huju today?”
“I’m afraid it will be difficult to walk in the snow, so I won’t let the younger ones go, and we will do it.” Da Tie said.
Yan Yu looked at the sky, thought for a while, and said, “Brother Big Tie, go to the government office to find my father and tell him that we will go to Huju every three days from now on. It’s getting colder, running every day is too much.”
Er Tie Dao: “Xiao Er, go there once every three days, what if you have accumulated too much firewood and can’t bring it back?”
“It will be difficult to find firewood in the future, and they will have to keep it for their own firewood. They will definitely sell us less than before.”
What Yan Yu thinks is that the transformation of the fleet should be put on the agenda. When the snow does not melt, the current cars will be unusable, and all of them will be replaced with large sledges, that is, sleds are better.
“Also tell my dad that I will visit him on the next settlement day.”
The big railway and the second railway are agreed to come down.
Seeing them walking away, Yan Yu took the dog to Liang’s house.
Because of the overhaul of the government office, Mr. Tian gave the county school a half-month vacation.
She is not at home, and all kinds of accounts in the village can only be counted on her Fengnian brother.
Including her family’s charcoal business, the same is true for the food account bought yesterday.
Now everyone in the village knows that the boy from the Liang family is to be found for bookkeeping, and the second child from the Yan family is to be found for money.
The courtyard of the Liang family was noisy.
Snowy weather can’t stop the enthusiasm of the villagers.
These are all here to register to buy grain.
The food purchased by Xiaoan Village is still in the internal digestion stage. If someone from the family goes with them, they have the priority. How much you come, wherever you go, it makes sense.
This is not the first time Liang Fengnian has faced such a situation.
First write down the number of companies that have sold out this time, and fill in the amount they want to buy.
“Uncles and aunts, don’t be in a hurry. After I ask the Yan family, we will discuss how to divide the rest.” Liang Fengnian got up and said to everyone very politely.
“My family has enough food, so I don’t need it this time.” Yan Yu answered.
Liang Fengnian saw Yan Yu, his eyes lit up, “Xiao Er, you are here!”
“Well, let me come and have a look.” Pointing to the pile of grain outside Liang’s courtyard, she said, “It snows in Fengming, but it still snows here, and it takes water. It’s best to put the grain home Dry it on the kang and put it in the cellar.”
“I see, Xiao Er, have you had enough sleep?” Hu Er asked with a smile.
Yan Yu: “I’m full, I’m full of energy!”
“Xiao Er, you can’t go out again, the weather is changing, it’s very cold, and I’ll freeze it to you again!”
“Yes, have a good time at home cat winter.”
“Your firewood and charcoal are selling well. You just need to take good care of this stall. There will be a lot in one winter.”
…
The people in the village are all kind-hearted, Yan Yu smiled and agreed: “Yeah, I won’t go far, I will stay at home more often.”
and Liang Fengnian asked for the account book, and Yan Yu returned home and started accounting.
The firewood looks small, but it can’t stand the large quantity, and the income is quite good.
She has been suppressing the output of charcoal, not taking large orders, mainly retailing, and suppressing the cost of collecting wood, but seeing that she has gradually balanced her income and expenditure, it is foreseeable that if she can continue to sell until the beginning of next year, she will make a profit. Not small.
In addition to the account of charcoal in and out, more is the account of the children in the village.
Every day who went to Huju and Yongning, they all remember very clearly.
Yan Yu quickly calculated everyone’s wages.
I plan to send this pen today.
Then discuss it with them. If you are young, you should not go there in the future. Brother San Tie is not bad at this age. She plans to ask the uncle in the village if there is anyone who is willing to run back and forth.
As the weather gets colder, children are prone to catch colds, but adults are more resistant.
Luo San approached her and suggested that she raise the price in Yongning City.
Yan Yu thought for a moment, and said: “It should be increased, and the closing price must keep up.”
Seeing that Uncle Luo didn’t quite understand, she explained: “If the income is low, people will not want to sell us, and we can sell it by ourselves waiting at the gate of the city. It’s cold, and there are only a few people who buy firewood.
I have inquired before that the price of this firewood is not static, it is higher when it is colder, we also follow the market with small profits but quick turnover, and always keep earning a penny per bundle. The most important thing is the business of delivering goods in the city, There is also charcoal sold at zero, this one is the big one. “
Luo San can get through at one o’clock.
He laughed and said: “You’re still a good accountant, your Third Uncle Luo is older than you by these years, so you can’t figure it out.
Okay, I’m leaving, there are still some sheep left from yesterday’s slaughter, and I will sell them in Yongning today. “
Yan Yu put down the pen and paper, and opened the window a little. The snowflakes outside couldn’t wait to drill into the house, and before they fell on the kang, they were warmed by the heat, leaving nothing behind.
There was the sound of tinkling irons outside, less stopping and more beating.
Yan Yu put on her clothes and ran to Sha’s house.
“Xiao Er is here!”
Blacksmith Sha wiped the sweat from his forehead, his voice was very loud.
Yan Yu started to take off her clothes as soon as she came in, holding the cotton coat in her hands, and shouted: “Uncle Sha, I want to make some iron bars.”
Although Blacksmith Sha stopped beating, his two sons didn’t stop, they still kept clanging.
“Iron bars? How long and thick should they be? What are they for?” Blacksmith Sand also shouted.
“It doesn’t need to be too thick, I want to make a sledge, a sled…” She didn’t know which name he could understand, and she even said with gestures: “Just put two iron bars under the wood, so that it can be pulled on snow or ice. “
Tiejiang Sha is from Leshan Prefecture. Although she has never done it, she already knows what she wants.
“Okay, I’ll make it for you later.” Blacksmith Sha readily agreed without even mentioning money.
“Uncle Sha, I don’t want two, but many.” Yan Yu said.
When blacksmith Sha heard this, he said, “Then you can’t finish it today, so you have to wait a few more days.”
Yan Yu hurriedly said: “Yeah, don’t worry, it’s done, you can ask Big Hammer or Er Hammer to come to my house and tell me, and I will pay the money when the time comes.”
“Okay!” Blacksmith Sand said with a smile.
Since they were registered in Xiao’an Village, they have been making iron arrows most of the time. Except for some uneasiness at the beginning, as the number of iron arrows increased, their family gradually settled down.
The people in this village are really kind, and they live their lives according to their duties. They made these iron arrows to kill the Bei Rong who came to rob the village.
People in the village took good care of the few families they came from Gufeng, and helped build the houses and kangs before the snow fell.
His family has crafts, and he returned to work as a blacksmith, and other families gradually joined in, followed by hunting in the mountains, collecting firewood and branches to sell to Yan’s family.
Seeing that the days are slowly improving.
Although the weather is cold, my heart is warm!
When I was a child, there were a lot of things to play in winter, such as dogs pulling sledges, smoking, skating~~
For example, snowball fights and snowmen are basic exercises. The elders can also make simple ice lanterns and carry them out to play at night. I still remember that my mother used paint to paint a little rabbit inside. Hahaha, in retrospect, it seems to be painted Very ugly, quack~ But I was really happy at the time, showing off with all the neighbor’s children o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o
