Chapter 254 Ways to Make Money
Su He looked at everyone who was stunned and told them another exciting news.
"Yes, grandma, but this position requires me to be in the city every day. I still like to live in the village, so I can't do this job for long."
Both grandpa and grandma were anxious. Why did he give up such a good job?
"Hehua, think about it again, it's so nice to live in the city..."
Su He quickly comforted her grandma, "Grandma, please listen to me."
"I plan to teach my apprentices to learn my painting skills. Whoever learns the best can replace me in the government office."
What, teach apprentices?
"Hehua, our Lanlan is the most suitable. Huahua is also OK. These two sisters love to dress up. I tell you, they are definitely good candidates."
Wang Laowu rushed out again, but this time he was promoting his two nieces. This moved Wang Laoliu, because they were a family after all.
Wang Qingqing also mustered up the courage to stand up and said, "Sister Lotus, I am very good at embroidery and drawing. I think I can do it too."
Wang Qingqing and Erli have been meeting each other from time to time recently, and their relationship has made great progress. After she finished speaking, she shyly looked at Erli, and Erli greeted her with a smile and a blushing face. This look made the single dogs around them get goosebumps.
Seeing that everyone was willing to recommend themselves, Xinghua also raised her hand to sign up after being encouraged by her sister's eyes.
"Sister Lotus, I, I also want to try it, I will definitely work hard."
Xinghua was speechless and could only express her determination with a blushing face.
Su He responded with her eyes. She liked seeing girls fighting for themselves.
"Everyone, don't be impatient. Listen to me. Uncle Wu, I know what you mean. Please sit back and listen to me."
Su He cleared his throat, took a sip of the warm water poured by Ma, and continued.
"It's like this. Painting requires talent. I don't specify the candidates. It can be men or women. There is no age limit. Let's put it this way. It's a bit late today. Tomorrow morning, anyone who has an idea can come to my house and learn how to paint from me. When you come, everyone should prepare charcoal pencils."
Su He briefly explained how to make charcoal pencils, and then briefly talked about the techniques of drawing portraits before ending.
"There are still too few people in Tianyuan Village. We will be busier and busier in the future, and we will be short of manpower. So Fifth Uncle and Sixth Uncle, you still have relatives in Qinglong Village. Ask them if they want to come. Uncle Jingui can help them change their household registration. Speaking of this, uncle, you still have to go to the county government tomorrow. Let's hurry up and buy all the land we can nearby, so that our clan members will have a place to live and farm when they come. The silver will be deducted from our clan's reserve fund. If it's not enough, come to me."
Wang Jingui nodded quickly, "Hehua, I'll go there early tomorrow morning."
Both Wang Laowu and Wang Laoliu's families were very excited. They just then remembered that they had not sent a message to their father and brothers to report their safety. Including the time spent on the road, it has been almost three months.
It's over. If his father sees him, he will definitely beat him. Thinking of this, Wang Laowu turned around and blamed his younger brother.
"Sixth Brother, why didn't you remember to remind me of such a big thing? If our father hits someone in the future, you will be held responsible."
Wang Laoliu rolled his eyes, and the emotion he just felt disappeared.
"You are the older brother. You don't remember and you blame me. I will complain to my father and eldest brother when I see them. You are such a shameless person."
Wang Laowu refused to do it when he heard this. Whoever wanted this unlucky brother could take it.
The two rolled up their sleeves and were about to start a quarrel, but fortunately, grandpa was there. Under grandpa's persuasion, the two snorted at each other and ignored each other.
When Su He announced the end of the meeting, everyone was reluctant to leave. For example, Goudan's family, with its old and young, really wanted to find a stable job.
"Lotus, is there anything else you can learn besides painting? We older people don't know what to do except farming."
Su He had already prepared for this.
"Yes, everyone has something to do, but we have to wait until after the autumn harvest. Before that, Fifth Uncle, you and Sixth Uncle go find Mu Tou to write a letter home, and give it to Uncle Jingui tomorrow, and have him take it to Weiyuan Escort Agency to mail it. If there are any uncles, aunts, and uncles who want to develop their careers here, feel free to come."
When Wang Laowu and his family heard this, they thought it made sense and that sending the letter could not be postponed any longer.
When Mu Tou saw that his sister had assigned him a task, he actively took the two families to his study.
Li Si's family and Goudan's family left first. There was no suitable person in either family. So they should go back early to take a shower and go to bed, and take good care of their own fields tomorrow.
The two brothers Dali had no interest in painting. They only had their little wives in their eyes.
The two couples were openly flirting in the kitchen, which made Wang Bin and other singles jealous. In the end, they complained to Su He, and the two couples moved their heartfelt speeches outside the kitchen.
In addition to Xinghua, the Lu family and Juhua's mother's family, Liu Bailiuniang, also went home directly.
Zhou went home yawning with her son and grandson. As for Wang Fugui, he followed his wife attentively, like a eunuch, smiling in a very flattering manner.
"Minmin, you must be tired. I'll get you some hot water to soak your feet. What do you want for supper? I'll ask Cui Niang to prepare it first. You can't go hungry."
Wang Jingui thought about getting up early the next day, so he confirmed with Su He what he needed to do and then took his wife and children home.
When grandma saw that most people had left, she proudly stepped forward to praise Su He.
"Our Lotus is really capable. Lotus, what do you think we old people will do in the future? People who are rich will have troubles unexpectedly. I am almost sick from being bored at home."
Su He had already thought of a way out for his family.
"Grandma, I'm going to let everyone open a tea shop. It's right next to the official road. The rice wine I made before and the most common tea can be provided daily. In addition, I will research some affordable cakes and simple noodles and wontons. There are many people with good skills in our village, so anyone can come. The profits will be added to the reserve fund of our village."
"Do you remember the roasted sweet potatoes from before? Once our production catches up, we'll arrange for that too."
This kind of tea shop does not need young people to come. It is more suitable for older people. It does not require any technical skills, is not difficult to run, and can also help kill time.
Their village is three hours away from the city, which is a good place for caravans to stop and replenish their energy. If the development is good, it would be nice to build some hotels. Anyway, they have a lot of spare money and can afford it.
When grandma heard this, her eyes lit up and she wanted to sign up.
"Hehua, count me in, and your grandpa too, we all want to go."
"And your Grandpa Dacheng, he must want to go too."
Grandpa is indeed a good brother. He always thinks about taking care of his younger brother wherever he goes.
As for my second uncle Wang Erming, you should ask my younger brother and sister-in-law about his affairs, as he cannot make the decision.
Su He felt very happy when she saw that everyone supported her ideas.
"Actually, the reason I came back so late this time is because..."
Su He recounted the affairs of the Zhou Mansion in general, and except for omitting the fact that Liu Bai had to go to the government office to hand in the account books, almost no changes were made.
"I will go back to the city after teaching everyone tomorrow. The magistrate has assigned me some work, so I will spend more time in the city later."
Speaking of ways to make money, the fruit trees in the Suhe space are almost ready, and she is going to the city to take them out this time.
