The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 514: Someone from the Capital (two chapters in one)

The reason why I have to reconcile the accounts with my uncle every day is not because I can't believe it.

It's not easy to save her aunt's face, and she wants to take her uncle with her.

Mrs. Cui couldn't follow her every day, it was Cui Langzhong's decision to buy or sell anything here.

From Cui Langzhong's previous behavior, it can be seen that he is a doctor who seems to be caressing on the surface, but in fact has a very good heart.

"Uncle, if you receive the goods at a higher price, then the delivery cannot be lower." Yan Yu quickly settled yesterday's accounts, and then pointed out to him one by one: "You have to set aside profits, This place is not for my aunt to use for free, our family also received money, and there are labor for building the shed, charcoal for burning every day, even drinking water, you have to go to the river to get ice and boil it... You have to Count it in!

Therefore, no matter whether you sell it to me or to someone else, you have to add more money, and you can’t just add a penny. It doesn’t matter if you add less and you earn less. If you really have to pay business tax and it’s not enough, what will you pay for it! "

Cui Langzhong heard Xiaoer talk about business tax business tax several times.

He didn't understand at all, so he said in a low voice: "Xiaoer, I've been thinking about it since I got home. You said that my uncle opened a medical clinic, and he collected wild goods by the way. Someone really noticed me. Just hand over the account for seeing a doctor and taking medicine, these things, don't let people see..."

Yan Yu looked up at him with surprise on his face.

I didn't expect her uncle to have such a brain, you can think about tax evasion, why can't you do business according to the rules.

"My uncle said that the ledgers are all kept secret, so they can't stand up to people's investigation, and they don't need to be checked, just ask someone to find out." Yan Yu felt that her uncle was a little confused about the situation now, Patiently explained: "Uncle, take a look at your shed, how many patients have you seen, how many medicines have you sold? Aren't we earning most of our money from this business?"

Cui Langzhong was a little embarrassed and said: "The big ones are all for your family..."

That's right.

Yan Yu doesn't use people for nothing, she pays more for what she receives, piles charcoal outside, and then pulls it from here to Fucheng, and she pays back the money.

She thought for a while, and said: "Uncle, there are only these people in our family, and we can't arrange someone to guard the side of this official road. Our charcoal field business has also spread, and there is a big family who buys a lot. Scattered deliveries, we also have manpower and carts at home, it’s convenient to come and pull our two ends directly, and our villagers directly pull charcoal away from here, you helped me write it down, saving us a lot of effort..."

The counts that the villagers took from the charcoal field did not match with those recorded by Uncle Qi and Uncle Qi. There were many omissions. If you make a transfer here, the account will be good, and you need to pay an extra sum for this, and she is very happy.

Yan Yu likes to have clear accounts, which is a good feeling.

"You can't let my uncle worry and suffer for nothing. This money must be given." Yan Yu changed the subject and said: "Let's talk about the profit again. You can increase it when you need it. Uncle, you can't take chances. If we do business, we can pay as much as we need, and when someone comes to collect taxes, we will pay them exactly, and earn the money we should earn, which is not shabby."

...

The small sledge quickly slid across the snow, and easily circled a stone without slowing down.

Leaving from Cui Langzhong, Yan Yu walked back along the river.

Not long after, a tinkling sound was heard.

At noon every day, the village organizes people to collect ice by hand.

As soon as the place arrived, Yan Yu jumped off the sledge, took the tools and trotted over.

Gou Zhu pulled the sledge to her side, then jumped on it, sat on it and breathed out the heat.

The ice on the river has been frozen very thick.

Now when crossing the river, there is no need to take a detour to the Dashiqiao, and you can just walk across the ice.

Xiao'an Village collects ice from a little bit inward in the river, taking more than 20 large ice cubes at a time.

The ice pit was quickly refilled by the river.

Yan Yu is a good ice chisel, she is strong enough and can use skillful strength, the ice cubes she picks are square, more regular than others.

Three yuan a day, no more, no less.

As soon as the job was done, she started changing guys.

Stand by the puddle and stare at the bubbling water.

The harpoon in his hand swished past.

"Haha! A string of two!" Yan Yu joyfully raised the harpoon.

The two fish thumped unwillingly...

I pricked it several times in a row, sometimes I can get it, and sometimes I almost miss it.

"Xiaoer, it's alright, you have enough money today, lend me your fork quickly, and I'll pierce it a few times." The boy who had been waiting by the side for a long time said impatiently.

"That's right, Xiaoer, leave some for us."

Yan Yu looked at his feet and counted his harvest.

OK.

Then call it quits today.

"When you run out, send me home..."

Before she finished speaking, someone grabbed the conversation.

"I know, I know, I will wash it clean for you, and I will pull the ice back for you, so let's go, let's go!"

The harpoon was snatched away, and the boys were blah, yelling here and there, and yelling which end is near and which is which...

Yan Yu returned home with her harvest.

Clean up the fish first.

She is the only one in the family, and no one can count on her, so she can only learn how to do it little by little.

Fortunately, the fish is not difficult to clean up. She doesn't eat the fish head, so she directly chops off the fish head, and then cleans the inside of the fish belly.

There is no need to remove the fish scales. After a few fish are picked up, wrap them with clean snow and put them in a shady place.

She saved up two pieces of snow like this and gave them away. This time it was Fucheng, and next time it was Huju.

When someone brought her the ice cubes home, Yan Yu tied them with ropes and hung them down to the cellar.

Then he also went down and piled up what he took today and what he took a few days ago.

Can do it by herself, she doesn't like to bother people.

Only one person pulls slowly with a rope and slowly adjusts the position.

"Little Er, Xiao Er!"

"Uncle Qi, I'm in the cellar!"

"Dinner is ready! Come!"

"Eh!"

Yan Yu responded, and climbed up quickly, like a happy little monkey.

Gou Zhu ran along with her, wagging his tail.

The Qi family likes steamed buns.

But in the past few days when Yan Yu came to eat at home, Mrs. Qi can be said to have tried her best to cook all the meals she knew how to cook.

Today I made pancakes.

The honey added in it was bought by Yan Yu from home.

Take a bite, and the hot honey water will flow out.

Suck and suck and lick around.

Sweet, sweet and sweet!

Two dishes were cooked on the table, one was mushroom broth, and the other was fried pork with Chinese cabbage. The meat was the pork left by the butcher in the morning. It was half fat and half thin, and the stir-fried vegetables were very fragrant.

Ask Yan Yu about the game that he brought back in the morning?

It must be finished!

There is no second meal in the Qi family.

The three brothers of the Qi family ate very slowly.

They were afraid that this woman would not be enough to eat.

Yan Yu also knew the eating habits of the Qi family, they were not polite at all, they drank soup, picked up vegetables, gnawed on sugar pancakes, and ate quickly.

Put down your chopsticks when you are full.

After the women in the family had finished eating, the three brothers of the Qi family let go.

In that stack of sugar cakes, the top ones were covered with honey, and the bottom ones were ordinary pancakes.

Those three people also ate deliciously.

Mrs. Qi brought them another big pot of soup.

Chinese cabbage fried meat is also added twice.

"Xiao Er, your mother asked you when you will go back today, have you finished your work?" Mrs. Qi asked.

It's hard for Yan Yu to say that he came back to the village to hide from the limelight, so he just said that he came back to settle accounts.

"It's almost there!" Yan Yu mumbled.

well? Mother asked when she would come back?

"Aunt Qi, did you go to the city to pay the deposit today?"

"It's not that bad. Looking around, I'm still looking at the house next to your shop."

It was the first time for the Qi family to buy a house, so they were cautious.

But they are also really inexperienced, and they can't make up their minds about which one He Zhongren recommends.

In the end, the whole family decided to buy the one that was close to Yan’s house.

The house that the Qi family bought was not big, it was a neat small courtyard.

In the words of He Zhongren, it is best to sell such a small courtyard, and it is also best to rent it out.

"The prefecture is very lively today. The high officials from the capital have come, many carriages have brought a lot of things, but they have increased their knowledge. The people in the capital all look and dress differently from us..."

Mrs. Qi talked about what she saw and heard today.

The old lady of the Qi family and her two daughters listened carefully.

Yan Yu does know why mother called her back, the imperial court's award has arrived haha, who would have noticed the little girl at the plum appreciation feast.

After eating, Yan Yu started to pack her things.

What confuses her is, should she go directly to Fucheng tomorrow, or go to Huju?

There are people coming from the capital, and it is necessary to go to Huju for a while.

She really wanted to...go and see.

...

The heart is not as good as the action.

Yan Yu tied her belongings to the sledge tightly.

"Target: Huju!"

I saw her pointing with her little hand, full of vigor.

"Hold on, enough is enough!"

He kept barking twice, let go of his dog legs, and ran wildly!

Yan Yu held on to the guardrail with one hand, and faced the wind with the other hand in the air.

The posture is very handsome.

I couldn't stand it within two seconds, so I quickly retracted my hand.

hiss! It's so cold!

It's nothing urgent, she didn't come out early today, so she took the time to get to Huju before noon.

Just in time for lunch, hehe!

I didn't want to run, but I found that the road ahead was not right.

Horseshoe and wheel prints.

Don't be too obvious.

This... can't be such a coincidence, can it?

Someone from Beijing? Just arrived in Guanzhou yesterday, and come to Huju today?

Are you working so hard? !

...

When Yan Yu arrived at the gate of Huju City, he found Uncle Luo from the village poking his head there.

"Uncle Luo, what are you looking at?"

"Why are you here?" Luo San was quite surprised.

"Hand in the homework." Yan Yu's reason was extremely powerful.

Luo San's face was immediately filled with sympathy for her.

He has helped Yan Yu with homework twice, and he understands the importance of the homework.

Luo San prefers to come to Huju.

Although Fucheng earns more, he still insists on coming every few days.

As for why, he couldn't say.

Maybe it's because the people here are similar to them, and the life of the people in Fucheng is different from them.

"A lot of people came here, they said they were from the capital, they wanted to give rewards, and they said they were going to worship the second and third masters..." Luo San sighed a little.

Yan Yu immediately said: "Uncle Luo, I'm leaving!"

She has to go to the government office quickly!

...

Master Tian knelt down to thank Xie En, and when he got up, he staggered.

He was supported by the three irons.

Yes, the three irons were sent by Yan Huaiwen to Master Tian today to fill the scene.

Is it reasonable to be the king of a city with only a servant by his side?

Not only around Mr. Tian, ​​since the news came yesterday that the messengers from the capital had entered Yongning City, Yan Huaiwen called back everyone in the government office, as well as those scholars who were temporarily copying in the yamen. Make things tidy by yourself, we'll be there early in the morning.

"Master Tian, ​​I heard that two adults died in the barn. I wonder if it is convenient for our family to go to worship at this time?"

"Please, Eunuch Li, I will lead the way for you."

It was not the reward brought by Eunuch Li that Mr. Tian waited for with all his heart, but the first thing he had to do after taking the emperor's order out of Beijing, was to pay homage to the two unfortunate adults.

Yan Huaiwen followed closely behind.

Everyone in the government office followed tacitly.

When Yan Yu arrived, he was on the tail.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Go live, find a place to stay by yourself, and take care of our things." Yan Yu instructed.

Gou Zhu nodded, and pulled the sledge into the official office.

Yan Yu quickly followed the people in front.

She is not eye-catching, because more and more people are following this team at this time.

At first there was some noise, people who didn't know where they were, asking each other.

Wait until you find out who these people are and what they are going to do.

All the people were silent.

...

The small door is empty after entering.

This is Huju's barn.

I bought food several times, but I couldn't fill it up.

No, it should be said that this is the case here at any time.

If Beirong didn't come, they would live a tight life. If Beirong had been here, life would only be more difficult for the people here.

The reason why it can be maintained is that no one has starved to death.

It's not that there is enough food, but that many people died because of tigers.

When a person dies, naturally there is no need to eat.

Eunuch Li stood still in the barn, his eyes shifting inch by inch.

At this time, someone should go over and talk about the situation on the day Beirong came, and how loyal the two adults in Huju were.

But all the people who occupy the government office are like logs, no one is stupid to step forward.

The people who followed filled the whole street.

More and more, more and more.

They looked inside helplessly, not daring to go any further.

This is where they often come to.

That's right, they have been collecting food here for a while, and they came here with the invoices issued by the government, and they went back with new and old food.

"Eunuch Li!" Elder Tian lowered his head slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Bei Rong came to seize the grain, and the two adults are guarding the barn..."

"The second master and the third master are loyal!"

"The second master and the third master are doing well!"

...

I don't know who yelled first.

There were constant responses, and constant yelling.

They cried and shouted, as if they had returned to that day.

Helpless and miserable, he knelt down.

Pieces of people fell to their knees.

They didn't know what to say, and they didn't know how to tell the achievements of the second and third masters to the adults from the capital.

They also couldn't remember what the second master and the third master usually did.

Everyone only remembers that day, when the two masters defended each other with their lives, Hu Ju's guards were dead all over the street, and the servants of the Yamen led them to flee for their lives...

After that day, all the tigers in the city are white!
