Chapter 60: Family Background (Asking for Recommendations, Collections)

Han Yue told Jin Niang about the situation of Zheng Xiaoniang's family, and when she heard that Zheng Xiaoniang would also work at home in the future, Jin Niang was happy in her heart, after all, there was one more person who could talk, and the little master was fooling around outside on weekdays, and he was sometimes lonely when he was alone. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Jin Niang happily took Zheng Xiaoniang's hand and arranged her in the room next to her. Zheng Xiaoniang also has a very good impression of this little girl who is like a sister, and on the way here, she is still wondering if she will be looked down upon by others, and now it is superfluous to see these doubts, and after thanking Han Yue again for taking her in, she followed Jin Niang to clean up her house.

Han Yue walked into his room in the main house and lay directly on the bed, his body was indeed a little tired from a few days of sea travel.

It didn't take long for Jin Niang to knock on the door and come in.

"Little master, at home... There is no rice left at home. She muttered and said, in fact, the family has long been out of food, and the 1 yuan of silver on her body is not enough to buy three catties of rice now, and these days it is barely maintained by two porridges a day, but now that the little master is back, he also brought back Zheng Xiaoniang's family of three, and the expenses will be big in the future, not to mention that in the future, today's full meal will be gone.

"Jin Niang, there will be rice at home soon, and Wang Erkui will be here soon." Han Yue smiled and said to this little Lori who was a little malnourished but still in good spirits.

"Little master, don't do anything again, Uncle Zhao came to the door a few days ago and said that you instructed Brother Erkui to steal their old hen and asked you to lose money." Jin Niang was afraid that Han Yue would instruct Wang Erkui to do something to steal chickens and dogs and be found by others, so she hurriedly waved her hand to dissuade her.

"Jin Niang'an, this time your little master has made a fortune and has been promoted, how do you see my simple body, is it very majestic to wear on my body?" Han Yue's love for Jin Niang is not that he is so beastly that he can't even let go of little Lori, but that he has been dependent on each other for several years, and he has already loved her as a sister.

He stood up, fiddled with Pu Zi, the military general of the hundred total and seven products, and turned around, showing it to Jin Niang as if offering a treasure. In fact, whether it was Xue Hu's uncle and nephew or Wang Erkui, Han Yue was somewhat restrained in front of them, after all, he wanted to establish his authority, so sometimes he had to behave steadily, but in front of Jin Niang, Han Yue could share all his emotions without scruples. This trust is built on the memory of the remnants of this body, and it is also built on the indescribable intimacy of the soul of the future generations when they first see Jin Niang.

Jin Niang looked at the Puzi on Han Yue's body curiously, and was suspicious at first, but the more she looked at it, the more she felt that it was true, and she forgot to congratulate the little young master with her eyes wide for a while.

"Little master... Is it really an official? Jin Niang carefully touched the Puzi on Han Yue's body and muttered.

"It's all right." Han Yue stretched out his fingers and gently flicked Jin Niang's smooth forehead, and rubbed her somewhat yellowed hair dotingly.

"My lord, everything has been shipped back."

At this time, Wang Erkui stood outside the door and shouted loudly, I don't know when he started, he rarely called Han Yue 'head' and began to call him 'adult' like Xue Hu.

'Ah, it's Brother Erkui. Jin Niang reacted from the shock of Han Yue's official.

As a result, there was a rare grand scene in recent years near Han Yue's house: more than a dozen donkey carts, ox carts, and horse-drawn carts temporarily transferred from the garrison were driven into the small courtyard of the Han family one after another, and the neighbors gathered together to discuss.

"I heard that Brother Han is an official, and he is still a big official."

"The old lady knows that Brother Han will definitely have a good future after such a handsome future, tsk, look at these cloth and food, to say the least, it will cost a thousand taels of silver to buy it."

"No, if you don't say that Xiao Yueyue often peeks at me taking a bath, I should not have driven him away in the first place."

……

Jin Niang watched a cart of supplies being transported in, and her heart was already happy, directing people to vacate the utility room, and Zheng Xiaoniang cleaned up the house and came out to help.

Edible items such as rice, flour, and wax were all stacked in the utility room next to the kitchen, and some large boxes and cloths were all moved into Han Kuan's original main house under the command of Wang Erkui, and the small courtyard was busy all at once, and the Han family had not been so lively for a long time.

Han Yue saw that many neighbors in the countryside were outside the courtyard, and thought that he had done something immoral in the past, so he stood in front of the gate and apologized to a large circle of viewers who did not know the truth: each person received three catties of rice and three catties of noodles to be regarded as compensation for bothering everyone before, and in addition, if he owes money and has not yet repaid, he will now pay double the interest.

When everyone heard Han Yue say this, they didn't believe it at first, until Han Yue called Wang Erkui and brought out bags of rice noodles and broken silver naked, and everyone immediately exploded and praised Han Yue's benevolence and righteousness.

Jin Niang saw that her little master was such a loser, and she began to feel a little unhappy, but when she saw the neighbors around her sincerely praising the little master, the displeasure in her heart was immediately replaced by pride.

In the courtyard, Jin Niang and Zheng Xiaoniang helped to direct the goods into storage, and Han Yue and Wang Erkui outside the courtyard personally handed over the rice noodles to the simple and joyful neighbors, and the lively atmosphere lasted until the crowd of onlookers retreated contentedly in the evening, and the courtyard was under the command of Jin Niang and Zheng Xiaoniang also classified all the goods into the warehouse, only a few large boxes in Han Kuan's house Han Yue asked Jin Niang not to open the inventory first, which made her a little mysterious.

The smoke rose, the busy people in Wangjiadao returned home one after another, and there were bursts of tempting rice in the Han family's house.

After eating, Jin Niang and Zheng Xiaoniang went to the kitchen to clean up, the big bolt and the small bolt were frolicking and playing in the yard, Wang Erkui was driven home by Han Yue, and before leaving, Wang Erkui took a hundred taels of silver and some rice and flour cloth back, which was regarded as the dividend of the trip to Lushun, as for the large amount of goods, he had told them that he would not move for the time being.

Listening to Jin Niang and Zheng Xiaoniang whispering and laughing in the kitchen, and watching the big bolt and the small bolt running around the old tree, Han Yue, who was full of wine and food, was extremely satisfied.

But can such a peaceful life be sustained forever? Thinking that there were still a few months before the Tatars would enter the customs, and that the entire Dongjiang Town would be destroyed in a few years, Han Yue's mood became heavy again.

Fetching paper and brushes from the room, lighting a small oil lamp, Han Yue began to take stock of his family.

First of all, silver: Yuan Chonghuan rewarded himself with 600 taels of silver and 50 taels of gold, and blackmailed more than 60 taels of silver from King Zhao Yan, Wu Heng sent another 60 taels, and his party spent more than 70 taels on food and clothing in Lushun, and spent almost more than 200 taels on some materials, and about 450 taels of silver and 50 taels of gold that can be used at present, and the rest is the 'black money' -- 1,500 taels of gold and 18,000 taels of silver, as well as half a box of jewelry whose value is not well estimated.

The second is food: Xiao Siqi sent himself 100 stone of rice, and when he was in Lushun City, he purchased 10 stone rice and 10 stone white noodles, and sent 50 stone rice to Xu Zumin, and just now he distributed about 3 stone rice and 3 stone white flour to the neighbors and gave Xue Hu's uncle and nephew, Wang Erkui half a stone of rice each, and at present, there are 55 stone rice and 7 stone white flour stored in the utility room, totaling about 11,650 catties, and the grain is still too little.

The rest is 30 pieces of cloth, a number of medicinal herbs, and a hundred catties of wax goods, which are prepared for daily use at home.

And then there's the 100-material merchant ship.

Han Yue looked at the statistical results of the tables and figures, and made a preliminary estimate that if his own family foundation was barely enough as a start-up capital, as long as he maintained a relationship with the Xiao family, everything would be much smoother to find a way to make money in the future.

It seems that it is still necessary to quickly request to be stationed on a separate island in order to develop with peace of mind.
