The next morning, there were fewer people in the county town. The hustle and bustle of the previous few days was gone, and the town had returned to its normal post-holiday state.

Guangdan thought that he would be going home in a day, so he simply went to the county town again. He decided to go shopping and buy some things to take back.

So he got up quietly while Goudan and Goumao were still sleeping. Although the Lantern Festival was over, Lin Xiaoniu still had to set up his stall.

At the normal pace, all the goods will be sold out around the time of spring plowing, and Lin Xiaoniu is trying his best to sell the products from a few cooperative companies first, while he will take his time with his own products.

Guangdan looked at his uncle busy every day and felt that it would be better to do it on his own if he had enough capital. Cooperation was always inconvenient.

Just like this time, although my uncle and Uncle Hammer also contributed money and effort, the matter of selling the goods was left to Lin Xiaoniu. Of course, it was not free selling, and the Lin family could get some compensation.

But Lin Xiaoniu was also worried that his price might be too low, and there might be objections at that time. It’s hard to say what the answer is.

After strolling around West Street, Lin Erniu and Lin Xiaoniu quickly rented a shop. Although it cost a huge amount of money, they were both very excited.

Lin Daniu stayed and started to pack up. When Guangdan saw that the clerk of the dental clinic was about to leave, he quickly said that he wanted to see him off and followed him.

"Brother, how much would a shop with a backyard in the county cost?" Guangdan asked with a curious and naive look on his face.

"That depends on the size of the shop and the yard, and also the location. The cheapest shop with a yard on West Street costs eighty taels, and the yard is only the size of a palm." The waiter said with a smile.

Guangdan blinked his big eyes and said, "With the more than one hundred taels of silver at the academy, I should be able to buy something bigger, right?"

"At the academy, where can I buy something slightly bigger?"

After chatting for a few more sentences, Guangdan successfully sent the person back to the dental clinic.

After getting the information he needed, Guangdan frowned and started thinking, what excuse can he make to ask his grandfather to buy a shop?

Unless the braised food business becomes big, the family probably won't be willing to buy a shop. Perhaps for grandpa, buying good farmland is far more important than buying a shop.

After thinking it over, I decided to take it slow, so I just found a grocery store and went in.

Without further ado, I bought two kilograms of sesame candy. Sesame is good for calcium, which helps you grow taller! And it also helps you beautify your hair!

Guangdan felt that not only was he not tall enough, but his hair was not black enough either! Only black sesame could save him.

After thinking about it, I went to buy some black sesame seeds. I need to plant more! I will eat black sesame paste in the future! It will replenish my body!

When he returned to the rented shop with lots of bags, he found that his aunt, his father, his second aunt, and even Erya were all busy in the shop.

First, Lin Daniu carefully swept the top of the shop with a stick tied to a broom, and then he did the same with the walls and the floor.

The store used to be a noodle shop, with the shop in the front and the kitchen in the back. The kitchen was very small, basically the size that one person could turn around in, with only a small window and no back door.

Guangdan walked around and asked curiously, "Where does my big brother sleep?"

“When the time comes, just bring a piece of wood over and lay the wood on the bench at night.” Lin Daniu said with a smile.

Guangdan looked at the place his father pointed to, and it turned out that his elder brother was sleeping like this in the shop. Isn't it too sloppy? ?

"It's going to be cold in this season!" Guangdan couldn't help but feel sorry for his elder brother.

"It won't be too cold if we light the charcoal stove at night. There's nothing to be afraid of, young man!" Lin Daniu even had a hint of pride in his tone.

Guangdan simply shut up, thinking again that it was rented. If this was his own shop, he would paint the walls white, so that the whole shop would be brighter! And then he had to give his big brother a whole nest, right?

Of course, Guangdan was scolded by Lin Daniu for the big and small bags. Fortunately, Guangdan bribed Lin Daniu during this Lantern Festival, so the tone was still acceptable.

Moreover, Guangdan felt that he had discovered his father’s weakness, which was also the point that was easy to overcome - that was that he had no money!

So bribing him is a sure thing!

If this continues, Guangdan even feels that his old father will be his own sooner or later.

Let’s talk about Lin Daniu’s psychological changes here. He used to think that people only have a face and trees only have a bark, so face is more important than anything else.

And at that time, the Lin family only had a face left, nothing else.

But since the family had some money, well, although the money was not in his hands, he also knew that the family had money, and life was indeed different immediately.

Even the villagers looked at him differently, so he felt more and more that money was indeed important.

So now he has to choose between face and money. Of course, this choice only appears in front of Guangdan.

Because when Lin Daniu faced Guangdan, he had a unique sense of superiority - no matter how capable you are, you are still my son!

For this reason, he was not too worried about losing face in front of Guangdan.

In the afternoon, Lin Daniu bought all the missing items in the shop, and the rest was handed over to Lin Erniu and his wife.

But in the evening, everyone was worried about the opening of the braised meat shop. According to custom, there must be a whole ceremony for the opening of a new store, right?

But Lin Daniu meant that he was anxious to go back, but the children wanted to join in the fun, and for a while they all had their own opinions.

In the end, the children failed because the one who danced the happiestly - Goumaoer - had to go to school.

Lin Erniu handed the dog hair to Lin Daniu without any hesitation, so Guangdan went back to Linjia Village without even seeing the braised meat shop open.

After all, he is still a growing little boy!

Oh, he also wants to grow into a handsome man of 1.80 meters tall with broad shoulders and narrow waist!

How can you grow up well if you worry too much?

He's not an old mother!

The first thing I did after returning home was to stroll to my grandfather's door. At this time, Grandpa Lin was resting on the kang. He sat up when he heard the sound outside the door.

"Who is it?"

"Grandpa, it's me, Baldy."

"The door is not locked, just push it."

After Guangdan entered the house, he took off his shoes without any courtesy and sat cross-legged on his grandfather's kang. After all, he was still a little cold after riding on a ox cart!

"How's your second uncle doing? Has he rented the shop?" Grandpa Lin looked at the boy's smiling face and couldn't help but smile too.

"It's rented. It's in a good location on West Street. It's one or two taels of silver a month. The money is paid monthly. It's okay. I'm keeping an eye on it!" Guangdan waved his hand nonchalantly, then approached grandpa with a sly look.

"Grandpa, I have a new idea! My second sister thought that the braised duck at my second uncle's place was selling well, so she wanted to raise ducks this year. I think this is a good idea!"
