Chapter 600 Turning stone into gold
Zhou Guo nodded. "We've been busy all day. Thank you for your hard work. Let's go downstairs to eat and rest early after eating."
Everyone retreated happily. They were very happy that the boss could see their hard work.
A group of people walked back, no one spoke along the way, and no one knew what to say.
The old man asked after a while: "What are your plans?"
Zhou Guo was stunned. "What plan?"
The old man asked, "What are your future plans? Are you planning to sell this fertilizer to the villagers, or to the people in the nearby villages?"
"Of course it's more than that." Zhou Guo shook his head, looking at the night sky in the distance and said, "But my uncle told me not to take too big a step, but to take it step by step. There are no big trees above our heads. We are just small buds that have just emerged from the ground. A heavy rain will cause a disaster. We still have to be steady and not become fat in one go."
The old man was very pleased. "I saw you make such a big business of pine mushrooms, I thought you didn't know."
Zhou Mai and Zhou Mi looked at each other, then turned their heads away silently, but they saw a kind of determination in each other's eyes.
Zhou Guo sighed silently in his heart, but smiled and said, "What should I not know? After all, I have been running around for a few years. Even if I haven't seen this kind of thing, I have heard of it. Several shopkeepers have been talking about it in my ears."
She was very grateful to them.
The old man said: "Be stable, take one step at a time, and be solid!"
Zhou Guo nodded.
The group of people stopped talking.
Zhou Su looked at this one, looked at that one, looked at the two brothers in front of him, turned to look at his eldest brother, and silently made a decision.
When they got home, Li and Zhou Xing had already prepared the meal. They smiled and said, "Wash your hands quickly. You can eat after you wash your hands."
There are sheep mushrooms, chicken, spare ribs, and cold-mixed ferns.
Li said, "We came back late, so it's not easy to cook more. We only have these few dishes. Fortunately, there are a lot of them. If the dishes are not enough, you can eat more rice."
Zhou Guo looked at the dishes and said, "This is not enough. There are fewer and fewer people in our family now. This table has four or five dishes, including chicken, meat, goat mushrooms, and bracken. These are standard for a wealthy family."
Zhou Xing smiled and said, "Have you ever seen how a wealthy family lives? A wealthy family."
Zhou Guo said with a smile: "I haven't seen it before. If it's not a rich family, then it must be a small landlord's family, right? Chicken, meat, eggs, and fashionable vegetables, aren't they all these things?"
Zhou Gu nodded, "That's right, there are more things to eat than these. We have tried all kinds of delicacies from land and sea. Is there anything we haven't eaten? Even the emperor is probably just like this. At most, the bowls he uses to serve the dishes are made of gold."
Zhou Xing smiled and said, "Of course, the emperor might also eat chicken tonight, but I don't know if there will be any fresh goat mushrooms."
Zhou Mai and the others laughed and joked on the side.
Li heard them calling him the old emperor and said, "Stop talking about the old emperor and eat. People like us cannot talk about the old emperor. Be careful if others hear us and arrest us and put us in jail."
Zhou Mai said: "Mom, you worry too much. The emperor is far away. Who has nothing better to do than to arrest farmers like us?"
Zhou Guo also thought so and was about to nod.
Li said seriously, "Of course not. Have you forgotten that our family is no longer a simple farmer's family? We have started to do business, selling pine mushrooms, mushrooms, and fertilizers. Although they are all produced from our own fields, if someone gets jealous and sees that we make a lot of money, they will arrest us all on charges. No matter how powerful your uncle is, he won't be able to catch us in time. By the time he comes back, our bodies will be cold."
The Zhou family looked at her in surprise.
Zhou Mai said: "Mom, you..."
Li said, "Why am I so surprised? Although I can't recognize a few words, haven't read many books, and have not seen much of the world, I have heard a lot of stories. I have seen the situation of our family. It is said that a tall tree attracts the wind. Isn't it the same principle?"
The Zhou family was silent, and the atmosphere was a little depressing for a moment.
Zhou Guo said with a smile: "What are you doing? Why do you all look like this? You should be happy. Today we finally sold some of our fertilizer. We have built the farm for so long and finally see the return. You should all be happy!"
The old man said, "What are you laughing at? You sold so much, but no one paid for it. The fertilizer went away, but you didn't get any money back. If everyone has a bad harvest in the fall, I think all your fertilizer will be wasted."
Zhou Guo said, "How can that be possible? They have signed it, written in black and white on paper with red handprints. How can they deny it? Besides, if the harvest is not good this year and they still don't pay, it will be the same next year."
The Zhou family was stunned. How could they keep owing the money?
The old man frowned slightly, "What if you can't pay it back, you'll always owe it? What about your good deeds?"
Zhou Guo said, "Why hasn't he come out yet? Can't I tell whether the weather is good or bad? I'm not blind. The harvest of their fields is out in the open. I can't lie. If I meet someone who is dishonest, I will collect the money and not do business with him next year."
After saying that, his stomach started to growl.
He looked at the old man and said, "Master, let's eat quickly. It's already midnight and many people in the village are asleep."
Everyone thought the same thing. They all lived in the same village, so they knew the income of each family. Although they didn't know the total for the whole year, they had the annual income from selling pine mushrooms in their hands. No one knew better than them how much each family earned.
Zhou Guo was in a good mood and enjoyed his meal.
Zhou Su on the side buried his head and ate happily. Even if the sky fell, it could not stop him from eating.
Other people who were infected also ate happily. It’s really unnecessary to worry about things that haven’t happened yet. Maybe they won’t happen. Wouldn’t it be stupid to worry about it in vain?
The next day, Zhou Guo brought the promised fertilizer to each household and asked them to help spread the word around.
The villagers got two truckloads of fat for free and were very happy, so they naturally agreed to such a small request.
Wang Fugui and others did not come to the house yesterday, but came with money early in the morning.
As soon as he entered the house, he went to find Zhou Guo and asked to buy fertilizer.
Li smiled and said, "Why are you all here? Sit down for a while. She is going to the village to deliver fertilizer to each household."
Wang Fugui was full of enthusiasm, "I didn't expect this girl to be so capable. She really turned those rubbish in the back mountain into treasures. What was she thinking?"
It feels incredible that these things actually turned into fat?
Zhou Cheng nodded and said, "Only she has the ability to turn stone into gold. She is truly connected with the Bodhisattva. Only she can do it and accomplish it. I still feel like I am dreaming. Otherwise, pinch me. How did those things turn into fat?"
