Farming in the Mountains: Max Level Jiaojiao Is Three Years Old

Chapter 424 - 424 Making More Money



424 Making More Money

“That’s good future planning.” Xue Sifu laughed. “Erfu, you heard everything?”

“I heard it, I heard it.” Xue Erfu laughed.

Xue Dafu rubbed his hands in disbelief. “This year, our family is actually spending money to get someone else to help us?”

“I’m busy making money, so I need all the help I can get,” Xue Erfu laughed.

“Yes, yes, yes.” Xue Dafu was quite excited. He had been farming for so many years and toiled for half of his life. In the second half of this year, he was so busy he almost passed out from exhaustion!

Liu Guixia smiled, “I won’t say anything more. You guys should do as you see fit. Especially you, Erfu. Make sure you find the right people. Remember to take note of what Jiang Yue said. Hopefully we can find good people who will help us with the work now. When the time comes, we won’t have to rush around. We’ll just pay them to help us with the work.”

“I know, Mother. I’ll be going then.” With that, Xue Erfu left.

Since the two ox carts of early rice would be delivered before dark, Xue Dafu and the others first sent the rice noodle scoops, large pots, and pots for soaking the early rice to the workshop. In the future, they would make rice noodles in the workshop. The house was too crowded, and if they made too much rice noodles, the yard wouldn’t be able to dry everything. However, the workshop’s yard was big enough to do just that.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan followed him to the workshop and helped him build a simple shed in the yard. Under the shed, they built a stove and put a big pot on it.

The water in the river was very clear, so he could just go there to get water. It was the place where the water moved the wheel as well. When the wheel was installed, they made a small path to walk to it, so it was a safe journey.

Xue Sanfu cut down quite a few bamboo shoots and dragged them over. He set them up in the courtyard. There were three floors, and they almost filled the entire courtyard with their things. When the time came, he could dry the rice noodles.

When they were done, the two ox carts of early rice they bought had arrived. The sun had not set yet, but they did not make the other party send the goods to the workshop on the mountain. They wanted to bring them up the mountain themselves.

Xue Dafu and Xue Sanfu carried the bags to the workshop and piled them up in the empty room that had no stone mill or grain.

Xue Sifu had less strength, so he could only carry half of the load. Xue Wufu had less strength, so he tried his best to carry a small bag.

Liu Guixia and Li Hehua were busy preparing dinner, so they didn’t help.

However, Xue Yifu stopped what he was doing and helped to pick up the rest of the load. Xue Yifu had also prepared a small cart, the one for Xue Yan.

From tomorrow onwards, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue would have to sit in front of a small table in the stall and set up the documents for people to buy ice, so they probably wouldn’t need it for the time being.

Today, other than making a small cart, Xue Yifu had also chopped some bamboo and sawed out quite a number of bamboo tubes. Adding on the ones he already had at home, he had a total of 180 bamboo tubes.

Now, if he was in a hurry to make popsicles, he could use six large basins to make popsicles at the same time to produce 180 popsicle sticks.

When all rice was sent to the workshop, Xue Erfu returned, saying that he had hired people and that he had also talked to them about the double workload.

The person he hired was someone who would not rest for the next two months.

Li Qingshu’s mother, Jinshan’s mother, and Jinshan made up three of them. The other 12 were naturally young and strong men who had a good relationship with Xue Erfu.

Xue Erfu had wanted to hire Li Qingshu, but Li Qingshu only had one sister and no brothers. When the time came, Li Qingsshu would have to help his family tend to the crops, and he would definitely have to stop work, so he gave up. His mother was hired because Li Qingshu’s sister could cook for the house instead, so he didn’t have to force his mother to stay at home
