Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

Chapter 75 No One Pays Attention to Lu Ming

"should!"

The two brothers said in unison.

My father had a major funeral, and my third uncle and aunt helped from beginning to end. This is a great favor, so how can I not repay them?

Seeing the reactions of his two younger brothers, Lu You nodded with satisfaction.

"I also think it should be returned, so I just told Third Aunt and wanted her to take the silver back, but she refused."

"Why?" Lu Ming asked in confusion, "Is one ounce of silver not enough to spend?"

"It's enough." Lu Yi said calmly, "I calculated that the coffin plus all the paper and white cloth would cost less than eight coins at most. We gave one ounce, but Third Aunt didn't want it. She must be feeling sorry for us."

"Yes."

Lu You said affirmatively.

"Aunt San said that they don't need the money urgently, so she asked us three sisters to keep it and pay it back when we have money in the future."

"The money is here, but this account needs to be recorded."

As he spoke, Lu You reached out and put the one or two taels of silver back into the tray.

"There is another account. It's from Uncle Zhao Wenbo."

"My father was going to take the imperial examination, so he borrowed five taels of silver from Mr. Qiu. He took two taels of silver from the loose change at home and left three taels for us."

"That day, Mr. Qiu's servant came to collect the debt, and Uncle Zhao helped to pay back two taels, and left another tael as a gift. In total, we received three taels of favor from him."

"Although Uncle Zhao said before that the money was a gift to us, we still have to pay it back as a man of integrity."

"Do you agree with this?"

"Agree!" Lu Ming and Lu Yi answered in unison again.

"it is good!"

Lu You said with a smile.

"In that case, the financial situation of the three of us is that we have a deposit of one tael, eight qian, and fifteen wen, and a debt of four taels of silver."

"This amount of debt is not small, but it is indeed not small. It is also a lot..."

[Negative emotions from Lu Yi +30, +30, +30...]

As Lu You was speaking, a system prompt suddenly rang in his mind.

Lu You subconsciously looked up at Lu Yi, only to see that he was looking at him indifferently.

On the other hand, Lu Ming, who was standing aside, was staring at the plate of oil residue in a trance.

Seeing this scene, Lu You stretched out his hand and pulled the bowl of oil residue in front of him, guiding Lu Ming to look towards him.

"Since the three of us have agreed to pay back the money, we should think of an idea to make money."

"I thought about it all night last night. We don't have any land, so the only way to make money is to do business!"

As he spoke, Lu You picked up the linen cloth next to him and covered the bowl of oil residue with it.

Seeing that the oil residue was covered, Lu Ming finally came to his senses.

"Doing business... what to sell?" Lu Ming scratched his head and said, "We don't have anything to sell at home."

"I want to sell food!" Lu You said calmly, "It's the sesame seed cake I gave you."

"Shaobing?"

When he heard the word "shaobing", Lu Ming's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Second sister! Did you get the recipe for the sesame cakes?"

Lu Yi on the side frowned and looked at his elder brother. In addition to amazement, there was even a hint of pity in his eyes.

At this time, Lu You also focused all his attention on Lu Yi.

"Lu Yi, what do you think?"

Lu Yi turned his head and looked at Lu You deeply. His gloomy eyes seemed to want to see through Lu You completely.

"The taste of the sesame cake is very good. If we sell it, we will have no problem selling it."

"I just don't know how much my second sister can do every day."

Looking into Lu Yi's eyes, Lu You knew in his heart that his younger brother was obviously not asking about his physical strength.

In fact, since he learned yesterday that Lu Yi suffered from hyperthymesia, Lu You understood why Lu Yi had so many negative emotions towards him.

Because I can't fool him.

For Lu Ming or other people, although their behavior in the past few days was abnormal, most of them would think that it was because Lu Dejin’s death had dealt them too great a blow.

Although there will certainly be doubts now, as time goes by, people's memories will overlap.

In less than a year or two, everyone will forget the weak Lu You who looked like Lin Daiyu, and think that Lu You should be what she is now.

But Lu Yi doesn’t know how to do that!

The scary thing about hyperthymesia is that he will passively remember everything and will never forget it.

For Lu Yi, his second sister was a circle, while the current Lu You is a triangle.

No matter how much time had passed, it was impossible for him to reconcile the two in his mind.

When he realized this, Lu You completely gave up pretending.

And today's conversation was her test of Lu Yi!

Although the time in the strange world was short, Lu You felt the warmth of family love that he had never felt before.

She cherished her two younger brothers very much, but if Lu Yi showed resistance, she had to make some other arrangements.

Looking into Lu Yi's eyes, Lu You spoke softly.

"I'm not sure, maybe I can only do a few a day, or maybe a few every few days."

"Is it so difficult to make sesame cakes?" Hearing what the second sister said, Lu Ming next to her said in surprise: "No wonder it tastes so good, it seems that the process is very complicated!"

"Aren't you sure how much you can make..." Lu Yi frowned: "Then how do you make money?"

"Hype!" Lu You said lightly.

"Fried pancakes?" Lu Ming stood up excitedly and said, "I've heard that the fried pancakes in the restaurant in town are delicious. Can we make them too?"

Lu Yi didn't say anything, but just stared at Lu You with scrutiny.

“Hype is a commercial method that uses special methods to attract a large amount of attention in a short period of time, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing the price of the product itself.”

Lu You explained in a calm tone, but when he looked at Lu Yi, his eyes were a little red.

Considering Lu Yi's unusual questioning just now, Lu You now understood that this clever younger brother had begun to doubt his identity.

In fact, he might have guessed that he was not the same Lu Yo as before.

Moreover, she was very sure that Lu Yi now understood that she knew of his suspicions.

Although the two people didn't say it, in fact, they were already playing their cards openly!

So Lu You stopped pretending and directly talked about the business logic of the 21st century without any disguise.

"According to my method, I can sell a pancake for at least one penny!"

"How much?" Lu Ming stood up suddenly and looked at Lu You with wide eyes: "Second sister! Can that sesame seed cake really be worth that much money?"

"Lu Yi, now that we've come to this point, it's time for you to express your opinion." Lu You looked at Lu Yi and said calmly, "What do you think about this matter?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yi remained silent and just looked at Lu Ming who was heartbroken beside him.

"One pancake costs one penny..."

"Xiao Yi! How much money have we spent on food these days..."

"Second sister, if you had told me earlier that this cake was worth so much money, I would have starved to death and never eaten it..."

Looking at the elder brother who was scratching his head, Lu Yi hesitated for a long time. Finally, he took a deep breath, stood up and bowed respectfully to Lu You.

"Lu Yi..."

"I am willing to listen to Second Sister's orders."
