Chapter 4:A Way to Make Money

Money is always the easiest, want to start from scratch is too difficult, Li Xiu thought for half a day finally gave up the idea of building a greenhouse for half a day, decided to think of a way to make money in less and less effective, until there is a certain savings to build a greenhouse is not too late.

However, although Li Hugh has more insight than the Tang Dynasty for more than a thousand years, it is not easy to think of a way to make money in a short period of time, so he lay in bed for half a day, and he has come up with a lot of methods, but he is not suitable for him now, and finally he is a little irritable, simply getting out of bed, intending to change the mood, maybe he can think of a good way to come.

At dusk, the mountains behind the yard rise and fall, in the sunset like a winding golden dragon, in front of a slow flowing river, the shampoo on the river there are several migratory birds in the play, when Li Xie approached, the water bird was frightened, the wings quickly beat the water, and finally facing the sunset flying into the sky, really should be the "fall and lone."

Li Hugh admires this rare beauty in the future, the footsteps can not help but brisk up, unknowingly he came to the river, stepped on a few logs built into a small bridge to the opposite bank, next to the river is belonging to Li Sheu dozens of acres of fields, all of which are the most high-class fields, the annual production is also a lot, but the situation in recent years is not good, natural disasters** continue, so let Li Hu and the tenants life is not too good.

After the small bridge is a crooked field road, the end of the road is Liu boss, they live in Lijiazhuangzi, now at dinner, not many families in the Chuangzi have raised smoke.Seeing that Li Hue suddenly poured out an idea here, he wanted to see with his own eyes what Liu Dao and these tenants at the bottom of the Datang society usually eat?

As soon as the above idea appeared in Li Huo's mind, it immediately grew like a weed.However, it was not appropriate to visit empty-handed, so Li Huo turned back to go home and put the grass fish caught today in his hand, and then returned to the village to find the home of Liu's boss in memory.

This is a small area of the yard, surrounded by a circle of fences to serve as a courtyard wall, the door is only a wooden shelf, a can move the fence as a door, only three thatched huts in the yard, there is a grass shed on the left side as a kitchen, standing outside the yard can see Liu and his mother-in-law cooking in the kitchen, three children are playing in the yard, the largest eleven or two years old, the youngest three years old, according to Li Xiu, Liu, the old, Liu Xiu, the old son, the first two years old, Liu Xiu, the old son, the oldest, the oldest, the oldest, the old, the old, the oldest, the oldest, the oldest, the oldest, the oldest, the oldest, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old, the old son, the old son, the first two years.It is very common, and almost all of the family have died in the war.

“Uncle Liu!”Li Hugh spoke outside the door.

“Lord, how did you get here?”Liu Dao saw Li Hugh outside the door, hastily put down the firewood in his hand to welcome out the road, and also very enthusiastically asked Li to rest into the yard, in contrast, Liu's mother-in-law and a few children saw Li Hugh, one by one, they all seemed to be a little cramped, especially the oldest eleven-year-old girl, but also holding her brother quickly into the house.

"Uncle Liu, thank you for sending me food today, just today I caught a fish, I will send you!"Li Huo smiled and handed the fish in his hand.

"You're so kind, you're too kind to come to me and bring some fish."Although Liu boss refused, but the smile is very bright, because Li Hue can bring a gift to the door, explain the importance to him, so he did not say no, took the grass fish hand to his mother-in-law said, "Go, cook the fish, and then let the lady go to a drink, I and the main family drink..."

"Uncle Liu, there is no need for wine, let's talk about it!"Without waiting for Liu boss to finish his words, Li Huo hastened to stop the road, in his previous life, he was very disgusted with the taste of wine, but sometimes in order to pay simply can not get rid of, the result is that every time he drinks wine will be vomiting, now through to the Tang, he has made up his mind to no longer drink, not to mention that it is now a disaster year, the price of wine is certainly more expensive, Liu Lao everyone even winter food is not enough, so can not let him waste.

Liu boss originally insisted on buying wine, but Li Huo was determined not to let go, which let him dispel this idea, and then the two people in the kitchen next to the small table to sit down and chat, not a while, Liu's mother-in-law cooked the fish up, but Li Huu is the heart of the smile, the cooking technology of the Tang era is still very primitive, in addition to cooking is roasting, like cooking and cooking methods have not appeared, such as the fish in front of this fish, in fact, white water and salt.I don’t want to eat a second one.

In contrast, Liu boss even ate a few large mouthfuls of fish, and his face also showed an expression of enjoyment, which seemed to be tasting rare delicious food.At this time, Liu's mother-in-law also greeted the children in the kitchen to eat, these children saw Li Huo in front of the boiling fish, one by one also showed a look, but soon they were reprimanded by Liu's mother-in-law a few words, and then only dared to secretly look at Li Huan this side, and then it was like a thief bowed his head.

See here, Li Hu also can not help but sigh, for the hardships of the life of the early Tang people also have a more profound experience, then Liu Jiabo mother-in-law brought two bowls of rice to send, and when Li She saw the things in the bowl, the heart is a kind of black with yellow porridge, exuding a taste of Li Sheu is familiar with the past life, he was also a rural child, when he was a child, he remembered that some of the pig food is the smell of this, the porous food is the smell of this, the porous food is the smell of this, the porous food is the smell of the porcine, the porous food is generally the smell of the porcede, the porculture is the smell of the boar, the boar food is generally the smell of the porce.This bowl makes almost no difference.

“Uncle Liu, do you usually eat this?”Li Huo asked in a deep voice, thinking about the two bags of white flour that Liu had sent to himself before, and then look at the bowl of pork in front of him, so that his eyes could not help but be a little sour.

"Hey, this year is not good, you can eat and thank God!"Liu Lao said with a thick smile, the smile is still a little embarrassed, because Li Hu is a rare customer, he should not have used these simple food to wait for guests, but now it is too late, Li Hue came when they have prepared a meal, so it can only be temporarily.

"Although this year there was a locust plague, but in the end is not to harvest some food, Liu uncle you should not be too bitter yourself and your family."Li Hugh thought that Liu was not willing to eat food, so he began to persuade.

"The master you have a heart, but although there are some food, but there are still three months from now until the year, and then you have to survive a spring drought, together for half a year, the food at home can not dare to eat, is to save lives!" 」At the end of the day, Liu boss said that his face also showed a heavy look, he had spent countless famines in his life, has already accumulated a wealth of experience, in his careful calculation, every grain must be used on the blade.

"Uncle Liu, I don't think we can just rely on hardship to survive, we have to find a way to make some money to improve the situation in Zhuangzi."Li Hugh heard here again sighed, and finally finally said the idea in his heart, although he did not think of any good way to make money for the time being, but the way will be sooner or later, provided that he organizes these tenants, otherwise it is difficult for him alone.

Hearing Li Hugh's words, Liu Lao's thick face also showed an excited look, the next thigh said: "The Lord's words speak of my heart, but we have no insight, we can't think of a way to make money, the main family you are a reader, certainly more insight than us, and the Lord you have great grace for us confidants, so as long as you say a word, no matter what we do!" 」

Li Hugh and so on is Liu boss this sentence, but although he has a lot of ways to make money, but suitable for the current situation did not think of it for the time being, which makes him a little headache.

“Oh!At this time, suddenly next to the kitchen next to the first crisp slap, followed by a child's cry, and then Liu's mother-in-law's angry scolding, which made Li Hue also somewhat surprised to see, the result is only to see the youngest child of Liu's family is crying, the face also carries a obvious slapmark, and Liu's mother-in-law while scolding while lying on the ground to pick what?

“Mommy, what a noise, I don’t see the main house here!”Liu boss also looked at his mother-in-law at this time, after all, there are guests at home, so noisy is disrespectful to the guests.

“What happened?”Li Hu also stood up and took a few steps forward, and only saw Liu's mother-in-law lying on the ground to pick up a grain of soybeans, and the crying child's mouth also had a few freshly chewed beans, which made him seem to guess for an instant what?

“My brother stole the beans!”At this time, the oldest girl named Su Mai explained that she looked only eleven or 12 years old, but in Li Sheu's memory, Su Mai seems to have been thirteen or four, according to the custom of Datang, she is about to get married, just because of the malnutrition of all year round, looks very thin, and the flat-like body does not seem to be developing.

“Defeated, give me a tough fight!”Mr. Liu heard here also pointing at his son.

"Uncle Liu, a few soybeans, the child ate and ate, don't be angry!"Li Huu hurriedly persuaded, and put up his bowl of porridge, and held up a few pieces of fish on it, which was sent to the crying child, and the result was that the little guy immediately did not cry, and the two dirty little hands took up the bowl larger than his face and ate it.

Li Huo's face is still to give, Liu boss now stared at the younger son a few eyes, and then this helpless to Li Hu said: "the main family you do not know, these soybeans are not my family, but our five feces have been saved, and it is not for people to eat, mainly for the only cattle in the crop, only in the autumn to let the cattle raise, the next year it is strong to work, other feces, other feminists believe me, if the other people give me the beans, only let the people know, if the other people give me the beans, if I give all the beans, if I let the people give me safe beans, only let the cattle, the next year, I believe that all the beans, I will give all the beans.I lost the adults!”

Hearing the words of Liu boss, Li Hucai remembered that there was a cow in the Chuangzi, for the family, the life of the cattle is more precious than the life of the people, even if the people are hungry, the cattle can not be hungry, because the whole Chuangzi people point to the cattle work, so the catering standards of the cattle are higher than people, usually in addition to eating grass, but also eat beans to replenish physical strength, even when working even to eat eggs and other high protein foods.

“What?The beans?I have a way!”Li Hue suddenly flashed at this time, thinking of a feasible road to get rich, which made him feel happy, and even almost jumped up with joy!
