Shui Qing was surprised. This young man has worked very hard since he came back.

He no longer had the unruly attitude he had when he first came here, and no longer had the irritability of being displeased with everyone. He became one with his five children, digging holes and running wildly all over the mountains and plains, just like a Erha.

It turns out that despite all the fun and trouble, this kid still hasn’t forgotten his true nature?

"You want to build a house?"

Bai Ziqian's mouth opened wide in surprise, and he closed it after a long time and asked, "How do you know?"

Shui Qing wants to say "idiot", but your expression is so clear that it's not enough.

A child is a child, and I wonder if her little thoughts from childhood are written on her face?

It was also very obvious to those adults when they saw her.

She didn't answer and continued to ask: "Want to make money?"

Bai Ziqian lowered his head in embarrassment, and clenched his hands into fists by his side, then unclenched them. He repeated this several times before letting out an inaudible hum.

He heard what the two old women said and knew that the selection of helpers was also very strict.

Only the workforce in their prime will be selected, not the old or the young.

Only then did he realize how naive his previous idea was. People in the village had to go out to help earn money, so how could they hire him to work?

And even if you need to hire someone to do the work, just scream, and the whole village will be willing to choose a strong, hard-working man, and it only costs more than 20 cents a day.

Shui Qing was not annoyed, but asked curiously: "To you, this is just a small amount of money. Building a house is very tiring. Are you sure you want to earn a small amount of money? What is the reason?"

Who didn’t want to make money when they were young? They are all people who have been through this before, she understands.

It's just that this rich man seems to be obsessed with making money.

Fan Jin listened quietly and said gently: "We have been together for more than a month. Our original intention is to get to know each other better. If you don't want to talk, you don't have to talk."

Shui Qing hummed: "My family, there is no age limit, you can join Dajiang Dahe. They also wanted to earn some money of their own before."

What she didn't say was that Jiang He's daily wages were discounted.

Bai Ziqian's eyes were red, and he said in a low voice with a nasal voice: "I, I don't want to be said by my family that I am a freeloader, saying every day that without them, there would be no me. I want to be content, sensible, and grateful to them;

I don’t even want to be told that I am a useless young man who relies on my family to support me when I go out. They say that if I don’t rely on my family, I will starve to death outside. They say that if I don’t rely on my family’s money, I can’t make any money outside. "

Shui Qing secretly glanced at Fan Jin who was standing aside.

This is a family education issue. She has no experience in raising children, so she can only leave it to Fan Jin.

Fan Jin was very awesome. He talked about life and ideals from the masters of heaven and earth, and chatted with the young man in the fields he was good at.

Bai Ziqian's expression gradually improved, and he clenched his fists with great ambition and said: "Uncle Fan, I understand, I can earn a penny by my own skills and shut up those gossips!"

Shui Qing was listening happily, but when he heard this, he stopped being happy. He pulled Fan Jin away and stepped forward to teach: "You know what you know, don't be stupid. People who gossip will always gossip no matter what you say. Always shut up." Don't talk!

What you have to learn is to never pay attention to these gossips, just think of your own way, go your own way, and don't be disturbed by them. "

Bai Ziqian looked at Shui Qing with a confused expression.

Although Shui Qing did not know how to teach children, she was considered a wealthy person when she was in China. The ways of doing things and thinking of wealthy people were different from those of working people. She looked at the young man and asked: "You help others, how long does it take to work for a day?" It’s hard to support a family with only twenty or thirty coins at most. If you encounter a disaster and your family doesn’t have any extra food and you don’t have much money in your pocket, what else can you do besides waiting for help from others?

If the grain merchants in the city get together at this time and are unwilling to sell the large amount of grain they have hoarded, waiting for the price of grain to rise to sky-high prices, and the government arrests the grain merchants, but they still kill them and they have no grain to sell, what can you do? "

Bai Ziqian thought for a long time and felt that this was a dead end. With no money, no food, and no one, he had no choice.

He shook his head in frustration.

"Suppose you are a businessman who has stored a large amount of grain, has a lot of money in the warehouse, and supports many helpers. When a disaster occurs, relief grains from the court are already on the way. Other grain merchants join forces to sell grains at sky-high prices. The government When I find you, you sell the grain at a low price or a slightly higher price according to the official's request. Other grain dealers are afraid that they will not be able to sell their own grain when the relief grain comes and rush to sell it out.

Do you think the people in a city have been saved? Are there many people who will not starve to death?

Even if you take a step back and say that you have food, money and people in a disaster year, and other people are so hungry that they sell their children and daughters, and they are so hungry that they can't take care of the elderly at home, but you can protect your wife, children and young people, and you can also protect your family in troubled times and disaster years. By allowing them to have enough food and clothing, will they not feel that sense of frustration and powerlessness? "

Bai Ziqian raised his head in surprise, looking into Shui Qing's eyes that were shaking.

Shui Qing patted the young man on the shoulder and said happily: "You see, money is not a bad thing, right?

Don't be led astray by people with good intentions. Only when you stand high can you see far. "

She is a businessman and a layperson. She loves money, but she also has a bottom line. The bottom line is that it will be difficult for the country to make money.

"You can see far when you stand high." Fan Jin murmured to himself beside him.

Should he stand high enough before he can realize his ideas...

Bai Ziqian stood for a long time, until his legs were numb. He looked at Shui Qing and said steadily: "I will go home tomorrow."

Then, he bowed to the two of them very solemnly, "Thank you. I just realized that my past ideas were narrow and biased."

What he should learn is the way of doing business, rather than worrying about whether he is a helpful helper.

He does receive favors from his family, but this is not a bad thing, as long as he receives favors in return.

As for other people, why should they care about what others think?

No matter in prosperous times or troubled times, he only needs to be able to protect his family, and they are his family!

He will even protect them from now on!

When Shui Qing heard the phrase "I'll go home tomorrow," I first agreed, and then realized that no one had dug the hole in the back mountain.

She really dug a hole for herself. She sighed deeply, "We good people will do it to the end. Here, this is your jade pendant. Take it, and let your Uncle Fan drive the ox cart to take you back tomorrow."

Bai Ziqian didn't expect that the jade pendant he had worn since childhood would come back, nor did he expect that Aunt Shui Qing, who was reluctant to part with a few pennies for help, would be willing to give it back to him when faced with his jade pendant worth a hundred gold.

There were tears in his eyes, but he put them back after hearing Aunt Shui Qing's next words.

"Your clothes are really shabby, but you are unlucky. Sister-in-law Guifen is responsible for making your clothes, and the ones Aunt Li sent today are not included. Otherwise, it would look better to wear new clothes when you go back, and you won't be too depressed, right?"

I'm still young and don't know the dangers outside. Look, all my clothes are gone. That means I've met a kind-hearted person. I'm pretty good. "

Bai Ziqian: .....How can anyone praise themselves!
