Today, a friend asked him if he wanted to do a business.

It can double several times in three months at most.

But one hundred taels of silver is the threshold.

Below this number, no one will take him to play.

He Tian was self-aware. He knew that he could not even pass the boy's examination, so he might as well go into business. At least he would not have to worry about food and drink, and his mother would no longer have to worry about money and sleep poorly every day.

"My dear, don't scare me. What can you do if you don't study? You have to read. My mother is still waiting for you to pass the examination to gain honor for me."

Ms. Song stopped crying. She was so frightened that she quickly sat up from the bed.

He grabbed his son's hand tightly.

"Mom, my son has told you the truth. My son is not going to end up in the exam this time. He wants to make money first, and it will not be too late to take the exam when he has money. Even if it takes two or three years, his son will only be in his early 20s. Examination room There are countless students in their s, and my son is still young. By the way, mother, how much silver do you still have? I need a hundred taels, mother, can you give it to me?"

"What? One hundred taels, what have you done? My son, don't scare me. My mother can't bear it. I don't have any money at home. I only have three taels left. Where can I get you a hundred taels? Here comes the money." Mrs. Song frowned.

Today she was guilty of Tai Sui. She lost face outside and her son started doing it again when she came home.

You are clamoring to make money, so what kind of money can you make?

Money is not as important as fame.

When they pass the exam, there will be a lot of people lining up outside to send money to their families.

Still worried about not having enough money to spend?

"Then...Mother, I remember that there are a lot of jewelry and clothes in your dowry box. Can you pawn it? When your son makes money, I will buy you a better box. Mother, don't worry. My son is just using silver money to make money. Do you remember Wang Gui, my classmate and friend when I was in school? His maternal uncle’s third cousin was a traveling businessman. I heard that there is a kind of fabric called Liuguang yarn at the border. Wearing it during the day, it looks colorful under the sun, so it is very popular among the rich. In Jiangnan County, one horse can be sold for fifty taels of silver. Wang Gui is going to spend 500 taels for his third cousin to approve it at the border. The goods come in and are then transported to Jiangnan County to be sold. My son also wants to get involved. Do you know the purchase price of this flowing yarn?"

He Tian gave up.

Mrs. Song was not interested in knowing. She was thinking about how to persuade her son to give up the idea of ​​making money later, so she shook her head and said perfunctorily that she didn't know.

"The purchase price is only 9 taels of silver per horse. Even including the cost of transportation, it is only 10 taels of silver per horse, which is a full five times increase! As long as my son takes out taels, he can bring back taels in March. Come two times, and there is nothing for your son to worry about. Wang Gui has done everything. All he has to do is lie down and collect the money. What is the difference between this and money falling from the sky? Mother, please help your son. When you have the money, son You must study hard."

He Tian looked at his mother with an expressionless face.

My heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Song refused.

"Son, it's not that Mom won't help you. Mom's dowry is worthless. The only precious gold bracelet was given to Xiaoxue as a gift. The remaining ones, even if they are sold with the box, can't be sold for five taels of silver. One hundred taels? You sold your mother and it’s almost the same.”

Mrs. Song did not lie, there were no valuable items in her dowry box.

Who made her natal family poor?

This box of dowry was almost emptying the purses of her dead parents.

Just barely filled a box.

They were all worthless fabrics and gold and silver jewelry covered with iron.

Plus she sold a few.

Almost nothing but rags remained.

Return five taels.

I'm afraid I won't be able to sell even two taels.

"Mom, why don't you help your son? My son said that as long as we wait until March, there will be five hundred taels. Our family is almost at a loss. Mom, you asked me to study, and I will study, but the money for the scientific examination is , where should you go to get it?”

He Tian was puzzled.

I can hardly afford meat at home.

His mother kept asking him to study.

When the time comes, you won’t even have the money to take the exam, and you won’t even be able to afford the guaranteed scholars.

Then you still have to take a test.

What should I do after the county examination? If you don’t have money to rent a carriage, can you walk on your legs?

"Silly boy, what did mother tell you at the beginning? Our family has no money, doesn't Xiaoxue's family have any? You should coax her during this period, and before you take the scientific examination, mother will ask her to complain, and I will ensure that you can take the scientific examination. There is no shortage of money."

Mrs. Song glanced out the window and whispered to He Tian.

Jiao'er's face changed slightly.

"Mother..." He Tian was helpless.

Mother and son chatted in the room for a long time.

Song didn't compromise either.

In the end, He Tian came out with a dark face.

"Husband, don't be angry with mother. She is also worried about you. Mother is really out of money. Recently, the family only buys vegetarian food. It seems that apart from this house, there is nothing valuable in our family. Jiao'er wants to help her husband, so she can No way, Jiao'er is so useless."

Jiaoer doesn't want He Tian to coax Bai Ruixue.

If my mother is really plotting against Bai Ruixue's family, she will definitely be tortured to death by Bai Ruixue during the period before her husband's scientific examination.

When the time comes, my mother will also take it for the sake of money.

Helping Bai Ruixue.

If the husband goes to make money.

Then there is no need for Bai Ruixue.

When her son is born, she won't have to worry about money.

Everything in the He family should belong to her son.

No one can take it away.

Besides, didn’t my husband say that he would take the exam again in two or three years?

By then there will be money and fame.

Sooner or later, her daughter will become the wife of a Shangguan official.

Wait until mother dies...

She coaxed her husband to divorce Bai Ruixue.

Jiaoer's eyes flashed slightly, and she held He Tian's hand.

The implication behind the words was to tell He Tian that he could exchange his house for money.

Anyway, if you mortgage it, you can redeem the property title in three months.

What are you afraid of?

"Zhaizi... Zhaizi!"

"Yes, I can mortgage the house for a hundred taels of silver or more, and then redeem it. Jiao'er, you have awakened me. You are really my interpreter."

What a great joy.

He excitedly left a kiss on Jiaoer's face.

Jiaoer pretended to be shy, but there was a hint of cunning in her eyes.

"By the way, do you know where my mother put our house deed?"

He Tian never interferes in family affairs.

Of course I don’t know these trivial matters.

"In mother's dowry box, mother put the key under the pillow."

As the former personal maid who served the Song family every day.

Of course Jiaoer knew.

"My dear, what will my husband do without you? Don't worry. When I earn some money, I will buy you a big gold bracelet. No, I will buy two. They are bigger than Bai Ruixue's. You can wear them when the time comes. Go up and play with her, so that he can know that my husband only has you in his heart."

"Jiao'er knows that my husband is the best to me~"

The two of them quietly hid in the corner and talked.
