Rebirth of farming for a living

After the date for the dock to be officially opened to navigation was set, Magistrate Xu even made a special trip to see Li Qiuyan.

The purpose is to ask Li Qiuyan to say a few words on the good day when the pier is opened to navigation.

Magistrate Xu actually thought about this matter for a long time.

Please, Li Qiuyan is a woman, although she has rank but does not have an official position, it seems a bit inappropriate.

No, please. Firstly, Li Qiuyan's rank as a township monarch is much higher than hers, and secondly, the dock is built in front of her door, so it would be inappropriate to say anything.

After much thought, Magistrate Xu came over.

However, Li Qiuyan did not make things difficult for him and declined directly.

The reason is readily available: "This is what County Magistrate Xu would have better say if you, the parent official, say a few words. Besides, the shop here is about to open, and I really can't spare the time."

Li Qiuyan's words made Magistrate Xu smile happily.

The two parties said a few polite words to each other.

This day is the day when the wharf is opened to navigation and Li Qiuyan's store opens.

Many other stores also chose this day to open.

All morning, the sound of firecrackers was heard one after another.

It was still early in the morning, so although there were no boats docked, many people from the town came to join in the fun.

It didn't take long for Shanzhenju to open.

Li Xiangbei, who had been worried all the time, collected the money and said cheerfully: "Sir, please go slowly. We have all kinds of delicacies according to the season. It's okay. You can come and take a look often."

This mountain treasure house is new and large, the goods are neatly arranged, and the price is not expensive.

It's really nice to have nothing to do to relieve boredom.

Although this street is not as lively as the city yet, it has everything you need to eat and use.

It is also a good place for shopping.

After hearing what Li Xiangbei said, the guest happily agreed.

As time goes by, there are more and more guests.

In addition to Li Qiuyan and Li Xiangbei, there are two other boys in this store.

They are all young men of suitable age invited from the village.

People are quite clever.

However, when there are many guests, it will inevitably become a bit confusing.

Li Qiuyan lost all other thoughts and started busy with Li Xiangbei.

Although busy, the final result is also good.

It didn't take long for Li Xiangbei to start a wholesale business.

At noon, large ships began to dock at Qingyun Pier one after another.

Qingyun Town Pier was originally not big, and most of the docks were ships coming specifically to Qingyun Town. Very few large ships chose to rest here.

Now the pier is much enlarged and more eye-catching.

Coupled with the fact that various facilities are new and neat, large ships that previously would not choose to dock at Qingyun Pier naturally docked here.

It is different from the previous cargo ships that loaded and unloaded the cargo and left.

The big ship took a long time to travel, and the people were tired.

When encountering land, most people are willing to disembark and get down to earth.

Li Qiuyan's street is in an excellent location, close to the pier.

Anyone can notice a lively street here while strolling around.

Therefore, there are not a few people who come here.

Naturally, there are not a few people who are interested in the novel goods in this Shanzhenjuli.

There was a middle-aged businessman who asked about the vermicelli for a long time and then asked for an interview with the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Li Xiangbei's face turned slightly red with excitement.

After raising an army for a thousand days and using it for a while, Yan Yan taught me so many ways to negotiate business. Now, I can finally use it!

Li Xiangbei invited the person into the cubicle and talked for a long time before he showed a hint of excitement.

After collecting the money, he said goodbye with some respect: "Then you go shopping first, and I will find someone to deliver the vermicelli to your boat."

The guest was also very satisfied with Li Xiangbei's journey. After telling him where the boat docked, the time of departure and the person who would board the boat, he slowly walked forward.

He also didn't expect to see vermicelli here.

It looked like there was no difference, but the price was much cheaper than what he had seen before.

This can be regarded as an unexpected surprise, and the guests can't help but be satisfied.

After they left, Li Xiangbei excitedly told Li Qiuyan: "This distinguished guest ordered [-] kilograms of vermicelli!"

What Li Xiangbei didn't say was that the customer originally ordered five hundred kilograms, but it was because of his sharp tongue...

Hehe, although Li Xiangbei felt that he had done a good job, he was not embarrassed to express his merit.

But regardless of whether he expressed his credit or not, Li Qiuyan was very happy that the business was concluded for the first time.

At this moment, Li Xiangbei called another boy to go to the dock to hire two laborers.

There are only a few people in my store, so I can’t spare anyone to deliver the vermicelli in person.

Just let someone follow you to collect the cash later!

For [-] kilograms of vermicelli, two laborers each ran four times.

Li Xiangbei settled the bill for the two of them, each with eight coins.

Carrying big bags was an unstable job, but they could earn eight cents for such a short time, and the two laborers were very happy.

After flattering Li Xiangbei and recommending himself for a long time, seeing that there was really no work to do at this moment, he reluctantly left.

The work at Shanzhenju is not heavy, and the payment is easy. What is rare is that the owner treats them as human beings and does not exploit them.

The two laborers began to pay close attention to Shan Zhenju from now on, and as time went by, other laborers also noticed it.

Shanzhenju's work is always done faster and better than others.

This is something.

Li Xiangbei looked at the backs of the two laborers and sighed with emotion. If he hadn't been influenced by Yan Yan, he might still be waiting for odd jobs at the dock!

How dare you think about the good life today?

Li Xiangbei also worked harder.

The day passed quickly. In addition to the big customer of [-] pounds, Li Xiangbei also negotiated a big deal of [-] pounds of vermicelli, [-] pounds of peppers, [-] pounds of fungus, and most importantly, [-] pounds of bean paste.

Although the rest of the goods sold were bulk goods, the quantity was quite large, and Li Xiangbei was indescribably high-spirited.

After returning home in the evening, Mrs. Zhou saw Li Xiangbei's happy face and smiled: "The store must be going well?"

Li Xiangbei smiled, nodded and then frowned: "I'm just talking a little absent-mindedly."

Mrs. Zhou also sighed: "There's nothing we can do about it. They are used to being together all the time. Besides, how can we not miss each other when we travel far away? But it's better to go out now than after we get married."

This is about Jiang Zhe.

This is also the reason why Li Qiuyan was a little absent-minded today.

Shanzhenju is busy today, but Jiang Zhe is missing.

Jiang Zhe felt that the opening of a dock here was an opportunity for him. After discussing with Li Qiuyan, he actually ordered two large ships, which were delivered a few days ago.

As soon as the dock was opened to navigation, Jiang Zhe took the boatman he had found and set off with a ship full of vermicelli, peppers and other goods.

Li Qiuyan was a little worried when he went on a long trip for the first time, so he specially arranged for Du Daming to accompany him.

Jiang Zhe didn't want to. He didn't know how long he would be away. If Li Qiuyan wanted to go to the capital, he wouldn't be at ease without Du Daming.

The two were in a stalemate for a long time, and finally Du Daming stayed.

Only two brothers were specially assigned to set off with Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe and Li Qiuyan were both satisfied now.

Before Jiang Zhe set off, he felt very guilty towards Li Qiuyan.

Originally, I wanted to spend more time with Yanyan.

This made the decision to get out…

Hey!

Although Li Qiuyan was a little reluctant to give up, Jiang Zhe was also an independent person and couldn't be tied to him every day!

If conditions permit, Li Qiuyan himself would like to go out more and see the world.

Just like everyone in the Zhou family and the Li family, if Jiang Zhe wants to make a breakthrough, then he will.

She also knew in her heart that Jiang Zhe wanted to stay with her and at the same time prove himself as much as possible and make a career of his own!
