Traveling through time with billions of supplies to become a farmer's little fortune
Chapter 21 Villagers Share Money
The three brothers bought some candies at the market and brought them back for the children, then hurried back home.
After returning home, the three brothers hurried into the house to count the money.
With a loud crash, all the money in the purse poured onto the table.
Old Mrs. Su looked at the pile of copper coins on the table in front of her and smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed.
The final count was 440 wen, which did not include the 15 wen they spent and the 20 wen they paid as taxes.
In other words, the total profit today is 475 Wen.
Old man Su calculated for a long time and thought something was not right.
"Six coins per catty, and that big fish weighs 58 catties, so it should be worth at least 300 coins. How did it become 475 coins?"
Su Lao Er laughed and said, "Dad, you don't know that Lao San doesn't sell for six cents, he just serves you according to your personality.
He would sell it to rich people for nine or ten cents, and to poor people for only six cents."
Old Mrs. Su patted her third son's shoulder with satisfaction.
"You are so smart, just follow me," he said and looked at his old man provocatively.
Everyone looked at the money in front of them and felt incredible.
They all worked in the fields for a living, and their total annual harvest was less than one or two taels of silver. After deducting the money spent on eating and drinking, they might have five or six hundred coins left, which was a huge deal.
Su Erlang was eager to try and catch two more.
It was actually my little niece who took the third child there, and I had no idea about it. I also wanted to go and witness the scene.
Su Erlang asked his third brother expectantly, "Third brother, are we going again tomorrow?"
"Whether to go or not, you have to ask your niece in person. If our sweet girl doesn't go, even the small shrimps won't come out."
After Su Laosan finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter.
"Don't think about so many good things and don't go recently. Even if Guaibao can get you some more fish, it will take some time. Let's wait until the next big market."
Old Man Su was afraid that these young men in his family would pester Fubao to go to the river to catch fish again.
It won't be a gathering by then, and if you die you can only be made into pickled fish, which is a pity.
The first and fifteenth day of every month are market days for them.
At other times, there are people buying things in the town almost every day. Although there are quite a few people, it is much less than on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.
"Old man, everyone will have to prepare New Year's goods in a while, and then you can catch some fish and sell them."
Old Mrs. Su is quite money-grubbing. She thought that she could sell it around the New Year and get a high price.
Especially for those wealthy people, fish is a must during the Chinese New Year.
Su Laosan handed the string of copper coins to Su Laotai, who was in charge of the money.
Old Mrs. Su took the money and thought that after all it was her darling son and Old Third Su who caught the fish, so naturally she should give some of the money to her darling son.
Then I thought that my sons didn't have any savings throughout the year, so I might as well give some of the money to them for pocket money today.
I earned 300-400 Wen just by selling fish, which is equivalent to my income for half a year.
So the three families gave 50 coins each, and the old lady counted out 50 coins separately to give to her own beloved child.
Old Mrs. Su took the remaining money into the house and put it away.
The three brothers felt embarrassed to get the money, especially the eldest and second wives. They didn't contribute much, so they just went to sell some of the money.
I only got 50 cents, what right do they have to do this?
I felt even more embarrassed when I thought that it was my little niece who prepared the fish.
The two men counted out another ten coins and handed them to Su Laosan.
"The big fish is for our little darling. Without my niece, we wouldn't be able to catch such a big fish. Here are ten cents for little darling to buy some candy."
Su Laosan scratched his head. Since it was given to his own sweet baby, he would definitely not refuse it.
"Thank you very much, brothers. I will accept it on behalf of our sweetheart and give it to her later."
He took the money and went into his room, watching his wife still making shoes.
He tiptoed in, "Hey, wife."
This frightened Taoxiu so much that she said, “You stupid thing, why are you so startled? If you scare the good boy again, I will beat you to death.”
Su Sanlang came closer shamelessly.
"How could that be possible? My daughter saw it as soon as I came in."
Taoxiu turned her head to look at the little girl on the bed. Seeing the little girl looking at them with a smile on her face, she blushed instantly.
He quickly pushed Su Sanlang aside and said, "My daughter is right here. Go away, stay aside."
Su Sanlang took out the money from his arms and handed it to his wife.
"Where did you get so much money?"
"Oh my, it must be the fishmonger's share. I can't have picked it up for free."
Taoxiu didn't expect that her mother-in-law, who had always been so stingy, would give her so much money today.
But if my mother-in-law hadn't lived frugally, we wouldn't have been able to get through those hard times.
Su Laosan then handed the other 20 cents to the little girl who was sitting on the bed with a book in her arms.
"This is the money your uncle and second uncle gave you to buy candy. Each of them gave you 20 coins. Here are coins."
Su Muyao thought about it and realized that it was probably the money that her grandmother gave her. Her eldest and second uncles felt embarrassed about it, so they gave her ten cents.
He looked at his father and said, "Dad, won't you give me ten cents?"
Su Sanlang turned around suddenly and said, "What? Girl, you still want your father's money? I pity your father (?_?). Your mother manages the money every day, and I don't even have any money."
After Su Sanlang finished speaking, he stared at the money in Su Muyao's hand.
When Naituanzi saw this, he quickly put the twenty cents in his hand into his cross-body bag.
"It's okay if you don't want to give it to me, but don't think about my money! Stealing money from children is immoral."
Su Sanlang rolled his eyes at Naituanzi and said, "Who cares about yours? You are so stingy."
After that, he went out.
When Old Man Su saw his third son coming out of the room, he hurriedly called his son over.
When Su Laosan saw his father looking for him, he hurried to the main hall and asked, "Dad, what do you want from me?"
"Tomorrow, take your wife to town to buy two sets of clothes for your baby. The weather is getting colder."
"Hey, Dad, I get it."
"Don't be reluctant to spend money. I'll ask your mother to get you some more tomorrow. Take your sweetie with you to town. Then buy her whatever she wants to eat. Just keep a close eye on her and don't let her run around."
"Dad, don't worry. I always hold my sweet baby with me when I go out. I will never let her be kidnapped by others."
The two were talking! Outside, there was a sound of gongs and drums. It was the voice of the village chief's son calling the villagers.
"What happened?"
Old Man Su understood immediately that the village chief must be telling everyone about this good boy who taught everyone to identify herbs.
"Village chief, we have something to announce so we have to go too. Where is the good boy? Hold the good boy in your arms."
Su Muyao was reading the books in the space at this time. She was originally reading a novel, but as she was reading, she came across a novel about a person who traveled to ancient times and made a fortune by relying on cooking recipes.
When I think about how many books and recipes I brought with me, I realize it was a very wise move.
Su Muyao was still immersed in the book when she heard her father calling her at the door.
"What's wrong, Dad?"
"Put on your shoes quickly. Dad will take you to see your village chief grandfather."
"it is good"
Su Muyao jumped off the bed, put her feet into her little cotton shoes, and walked out of the room with a clatter.
Su Laosan grabbed the milk ball on the ground, carried it and walked out.
