Chapter Ninety-Three: Guarding Against Others Is Indispensable
"Okay, well, I think this dish should grow in a few days. Xu Xiaoyu and Shopkeeper Qiu were very satisfied with the dishes in the basket, so they raised their heads and smiled, "In that case, why don't we sign the contract now?"
Qixi turned her head to see her father nodded, knowing that this was what had been discussed just now, so he didn't say a word and followed the eldest brother to get something.
In fact, she also thinks that it should be like this, their family is the first time to do big business with others, Xu Xiaoyu retired from the vegetable merchant in the county, and he should take the risk of going down, there is no evidence, there is this contract, both parties are relieved, right?
The brother and sister hurriedly went to get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and it was Qiu Shopkeeper who dictated the content of the contract, and it was Jingwen who carried the pen and wrote, and it was Xu Xiaoyu and Shen Chenghou who were waiting to sign and press the handprint, and Li Taihe was the middleman.
It is said that words are like people, although Jingwen has only been reading for a few years, but he is diligent, this word is already quite a bit of style, and it can be seen that he is a child with a firm heart.
Xu Xiaoyu saw that several children of the Shen family were skillful in helping to polish the ink and lay the paper, and they all stared at it when Jingwen was writing, and knew that they were all literate, so he couldn't help but look at it a few more times, this ordinary farmer really looked down on it.
The contract was quickly written, and the dumplings were calculated according to the price at which the Qixi family sold them at the stall, thirteen cents per catty, and their family would have earned less than four cents per catty, and in fact, this price was nothing to Xu Xiaoyu, a bowl of dumplings sold at the stall for five cents, and when it came to "cyclamen", it was not just a matter of ten cents, so naturally it was not worth that penny.
As for the price of dishes, the specific cost of ordinary dishes is not written first, but only calculated with the dishes in the county. Xu Xiaoyu won't hide it from Qixi and will inquire about it himself, that's it.
But the asparagus made a difficulty. It's so rare, so rare that you can't even see it in the north. There is really no way to compare the price of food.
It's too high, but it's low, and the family will definitely not agree, thinking about it for a while, or Li Taihe said, or add fifty percent to the most expensive dish, and the specific amount will follow the price of the dish.
Xu Xiaoyu thought about it and happily agreed, there are things with no price, he can sell it as much as he wants, and the Qixi family is also satisfied, after all, no matter how rare it is, it is just a dish. Can't be too outrageously high.
In addition, it is to write down some things that both parties are worried about, which is regarded as a constraint on both parties, and the contract is completed.
Li Taihe also raised a price after introducing his sister and brother-in-law to his sister-in-law after entering the door, and when he saw that the conversation was almost over, he smiled and nodded to express his willingness to be this Chinese person.
In fact, he was also full of doubts before, and he was more curious about his sister's conservatory than these two, but at this time, he couldn't show his timidity, so he had to go back and ask again.
In triplicate, one for each side plus the Chinese person. What is strange is that one party signed Xu Xiaoyu's name, and the other party didn't know why, Xu Xiaoyu insisted that Qixi also sign it.
Shen Chenghou and his wife still felt that something was wrong. Qixi signed it without hesitation, since this can reassure Xu Xiaoyu, she has also read this contract and is completely fine. What does it matter if she signs it? On the contrary, her name is on the top, and she takes 10,000 steps back. If there is really any problem in the future, she also has that qualification to negotiate.
"Ha Lu Ha. Okay, now we're going to have to move around a lot, and if you're not in town here, if there's anything inconvenient, send someone to say it. Shopkeeper Qiu put away their contract, and Xu Xiaoyu said with a smile.
"Our family has designated to send it as soon as possible, if there is really something embarrassing, then trouble Boss Xu. Shen Chenghou agreed happily, and the Zhilu Taoist people were also afraid that if the dishes and dumplings could not be supplied, they would delay the business or something.
The business was done, Xu Xiaoyu's hospitable nature was undoubtedly revealed, and he had to drag the Qixi family into the town to eat, Shen Chenghou was worried about the dish, how could he have the heart to eat, but he didn't know how to refuse.
Qixi looked at it, and hurriedly said that if she would wait for ten days later to deliver the food, her father would be the east, and invite Uncle Xu and the shopkeeper Qiu to have a good meal.
Xu Xiaoyu agreed, turned his head and dragged Li Taihe, and said that the two of them would go to drink two cups first, and they happened to be so tired that they were hungry all morning.
The whole family was sent out, and only then did they turn around and go back as the carriage went away.
When I got up in the morning, I was slowly cooking, eating, and cleaning up, and when I turned my head and took a contract in my hand, I couldn't allow them to drag it anymore, and the joy in my heart seemed to rise.
However, Shen Chenghou was still thinking about the dish, but as soon as he opened his mouth to ask, Li directly dragged the person to the greenhouse: "Dad, look ...... you?"
"Xi'er, this dish ...... Why does our dish grow so fast...... "I've been busy setting up stalls these days, and after the greenhouse is cleaned up, there is a big girl watching the fire and watering something, so he doesn't care about looking at it more, but it's only been two days, why is it that the boss is the boss."
"Daddy, isn't it good to grow fast? If we grow fast, we can sell more money. Qixi smiled and pulled his father and mother in, "You don't care, how much work our family has spent, who grows vegetables and builds a house, builds a kang to build a shelf, and burns the stove every day, our family serves these dishes more than raising a child in other people." ”
This said that the whole family laughed, but it's not anything, the children in the countryside are all rough-raised, and they really can't compare to their food, they are afraid of cold and less water, and they have to press the fire in the middle of the night to keep warm.
Qixi turned her head and walked to the shelf inside, and the whole family followed in confusion, wondering what kind of medicine she was selling in this gourd.
"Daddy, this is asparagus, Boss Xu is actually here for this today...... "Qixi said that he accidentally found this asparagus seed, and then took the opportunity to say, "The vegetables in our greenhouse can't be seen by outsiders, especially this asparagus, which sells this unique one, don't you see that it can be sold at that high price?" ”
"The child is right, let's be careful when we turn back. Shen Chenghou nodded when he heard this, the price of this asparagus is really high, and the ordinary vegetables in winter are not what they can afford, let alone more expensive than the most expensive, "I'll clean up the door and lock of this house again, our own family is optimistic, don't let outsiders get close, these dishes are expensive."
"My mother also remembered, no one was allowed to look at it when she turned around, that is, this thing can be eaten?" Li Shi couldn't help but ask, looking at the asparagus he had never seen.
"Of course you can, it just so happens that we still have meat at home, I'll fry a shredded asparagus meat at night, let's try it." ”
"Oh, don't do that. When Li Shi heard this, he waved his hand, "What do we eat at home with this expensive thing, don't eat it, keep it and sell it." ”
"Mother's ......" finished reading the dishes, and Qixi pushed her mother to go outside, "Expensive is to sell to others, we can't eat our own mouth?" I don't say all, we didn't spend money on this rapeseed, I still want to go back and take some asparagus to send to the rapeseed shop, if there is no family, our family can't grow this asparagus, don't you feel sorry for this?"
"Then you have to give it, then why don't you give it?" The Li family is not a stingy person, but he is even more worried about kindness in his heart, and he thinks of the Zhao family again, so he said, "You said that this thing can be seen by the Zhao family, I look at it strange, or we will send some too?" I'm afraid that people won't look down on this thing." ”
"It's all our intentions to see it or not, and besides, I also promised Tianci to give her food, if my mother is really not distressed, then I will go back and send it together?"
"You kid ......" Li Zhilu said that the little girl deliberately took what she just said about her, turned her head to look at the little son's greedy eyes, and said, "Okay, then our family will eat once in the evening, so that you all have to say that your mother is stingy." ”
"Oh...... Eat asparagus. When Xiao Shi heard this, he cheered, and went over to pick up his mother, "Mother, my third sister said just now, this asparagus is delicious." ”
The family closed the door of the conservatory and went back to the upper room, seeing that Shen Chenghou was also relieved, Li said: "It's not time for us to talk about this now, why will it take a few days for the green vegetables, but the dumplings will come to pick up tomorrow, and you have to hurry up when you fish and kill fish to buy bones, fat, meat, etc., our noodles are enough for Ming'er's 100 catties, but the latter will be gone." ”
The more he talked about this, the more he felt that there were many things to be busy, and Li Shi was worried: "And it's cold this day, it's not like I used to be able to work outside, I used to work in this kitchen once every few days, and I have to get it when I see the sky, and the more I lay out, the bigger it gets, and it's not good to come and see someone." ”
"Or, let's work in the West Wing, the house is empty, and it costs a fire every day, you are right, we often come to this house or something, our dumplings are going to be sent to the big restaurant, then if it is not clean, it is not good, and in the future, I will have to pick up vegetables in this house, and I can't let people see it." Shen Chenghou thought about it and said.
It just so happened that the two wings were not inhabited, and the upper few rooms were enough for the family to make do, and the east wing was not moved first.
Several children nodded and smiled, and his father and mother also knew that they had to guard against people, and the heart of guarding against people was indispensable, which was a lot of progress.
"Daddy, there's another thing, although we are not afraid that the dumplings will stick together like when it is hot, they will not be hard for the time being, and they can't be packed in a pot, I'm afraid they will be crowded out of shape by then. Qixi remembered something again, so he said.
In previous years, the snow has fallen at this time, this year to see this day how to have a half a month, and a few days later it is good to say, the first day after the wrapping to the outside, the next day when people come to take the dumplings are frozen, what to put outside the winter overnight are frozen, don't worry about it at all, the key is these days.
