Zheng took the silver, looked at Li Tu, looked at the silver again, looked surprised, and said loudly worriedly: "Tu'er, where did you earn so much silver?" ”

Li Tu said loudly: "Mother, don't worry! This is earned by his son running to the sea. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoNow I am the head bunker of the ship, and I have eight brothers under my command, and I have an annual honorarium of two hundred taels! ”

Hearing the figure of two hundred taels, Zheng was taken aback again, and opened his mouth and couldn't speak. Looking at the strong men behind Li Tu, Zheng didn't know whether Li Tu's words were true or false, and his face was cloudy.

Seeing Zheng's suspicious expression, the chief manager Xue Yiming stood up and said, "This big sister, don't be surprised. Your son has made great contributions on the ship and saved the whole ship, and now your son is our chief shop officer, and he is indeed paid two hundred taels of silver a year! ”

Looking at Xue Yiming, who had a steady appearance, Zheng believed Li Tu's words.

"Two hundred taels a year? Have I never seen so much silver? ”

As soon as Zheng was excited, his eyes were red again, and tears flowed down. Wiping away tears with his hands, Zheng said with tears in his eyes:

"Tu'er is really out of luck. If your father is still here, he will be very happy to see your current appearance! ”

But after thinking about it, Zheng said worriedly: "Tu'er, how did you save the whole boat?" Could it be that he met a strongman at sea? Why is this running to the sea so risky? ”

Xu San jumped out and said with a smile: "Grandma, don't worry, your son is very heroic, he trained us with firearms, protected us and repelled the thieves unscathed, there is no risk!" ”

Zheng looked at Xu San, then at Li Tu, and said, "Don't blame me, this must be risky." It's just that my son has grown up, and he will grasp the risk of running to the sea. ”

Ignoring Xu San, Zheng wiped a handful of tears again, then walked to the main house and put three sticks of incense on Li Tu's father's tablet. When she was incense, she chanted words, as if she wanted to tell her deceased husband about Li Tu's current appearance.

Everyone was looking at Zheng's incense, and Li Tong didn't know where to be found by Cao San, so he ran in with Cao San. The two were followed by three fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys, probably Li Tong's playmates, who also came over to watch the fun.

That Cao San ran behind Li Tong, but shouted loudly first: "Brother Li, I helped you find your younger brother!" ”

Li Tong ran into the door, saw his brother, and said loudly: "Brother, are you back?" ”

I haven't seen him for more than half a year, and Li Tong has grown a little taller, and he is already about the same height as Li Tu. Li Tu nodded at Li Tong with a smile, stretched out his hand and took out a silver piece of five taels from his arms, and said with a smile: "Buy meat for your pocket money!" ”

Li Tong took the silver, his face suddenly smiled, and he said loudly: "Brother, you are also tired of being generous!" Give me such a big piece of silver as soon as we meet! Touching the silver happily, Li Tong said with a smile: "My mother says every day that she wants to save money, she wants to save money, and she wants to marry your daughter-in-law, but I haven't eaten meat for three months!" ”

After saying this, Li Tong proudly lifted the silver and showed it to several of his playmates. The teenagers all showed envious expressions.

Hearing Li Tong's words, Li Tu sighed in his heart and said with a smile: "Your brother has made money now, and in the future, you will let go of your stomach and eat meat!" ”

Li Tu took out another fifty yuan and rewarded Cao San who reported the news. That Cao San got the copper coin, smiled like a flower on his face, nodded and said, "Thank you Brother Li, Brother Li will make a bigger fortune in the future!" Many happy returns! ”

Li Tu and the others were talking, and Cao San took the copper coin and should leave. But when he walked to the gate of the courtyard, he pretended to think of something, and stood in the crowd of onlookers, continuing to look at the new things in the courtyard of the Li family.

Li Tong looked at Li Tu and the strong men behind Li Tu, and asked again, "Is my brother the leader now?" ”

Xu San walked out, patted Li Tong on the shoulder and said, "Your brother is now the head shop on our ship, and he is in charge of the eight of us on weekdays!" At other times, you have to take care of the training and battle of the whole ship! ”

When Li Tong heard this, he shouted at Li Tu: "Brother, I also want to go to sea!" ”

Li Tu asked, "What can you do when you go to sea?" ”

Li Tong thought for a long time, blushed and said, "I'm good at water!" ”

Li Tu smiled, noncommittal, and took out three coins of silver to Li Tong, and said, "You go to the market to buy some meat, meat, wine and food, and entertain these sailors who come with me at our house in the evening!" ”

Li Tong took the silver and asked Li Tu, "Brother, will you let me get on the boat?" ”

Li Tu pulled his face down and said in a deep voice: "You take good care of your mother at home, what boat are you on?" Let's go shopping for food and drinks! The Father is not there, the brother is the Father, you have to be obedient! ”

Seeing that Li Tu was pressing himself with a big reason again, Li Tong reluctantly put away the silver and walked outside the courtyard.

#####

After entertaining everyone and having a meal, Li Tu let Xue Yiming and the eyes stay in the town inn. The small inn in that town only has a total of six rooms, and except for Xue Yiming alone, he can't let the eyes have one room for one person. However, they are used to the crowding of the ship, and it is nice to have a bed.

After settling down the crowd, Li Tu pulled Li Tong to sit on the steps of the door and talk.

Li Cheng hadn't seen meat since the end of the year, and tonight he took Li Tu to entertain Xue Yiming and others and ate a lot of wine and meat, and their stomachs were full. After burping, Li Tong said loudly: "There is wine and meat, this is the life of a person." Brother, you don't know, since you got on the boat, my mother said every day that she would save money to marry your daughter-in-law, and the family only had white rice with some salt to eat every day, sometimes to buy some sauerkraut, and sometimes there were no green vegetable leaves, which almost faded me out of the bird. ”

Li Tu smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry to marry a daughter-in-law, but you, you'll be sixteen years old in a few months, do you have a favorite girl?" ”

Li Tong waved his hand and said, "I'm still young, how can I have that distraction?" ”

Li Tu said: "I heard my mother say that you can sit and chat in Qu's carpenter shop if you are fine, do you have a crush on his daughter Juan'er?" ”

Li Tong's face turned red, and he turned his back to Li Tu and did not speak.

Li Tu asked curiously, "Is Carpenter Tan willing to marry his daughter to you?" ”

Li Tong waved his hand and said, "Originally, I must have refused, but Carpenter Qu thought that our family had too little land, and there were two men, and he was afraid that his daughter would suffer if she married me." But now that you have earned so much silver and come back, brother, you will definitely not rob me of the field or something, and Carpenter Qu will definitely be willing. ”

Li Tu smiled and said, "How do you know that I don't grab the fields with you?" ”

Li Tong didn't look at Li Tu, and said confidently: "Brother, you are now the leader, you can earn so much silver in a year, and you are so generous, can you still look at these seven acres of paddy fields?" ”

Li Tu was amused when he saw his words, and asked again: "Li Tong, do you know where there are idle big fishing boats?" ”

Li Tong messes around the town every day, has the most partners, and is well-informed. If you need to inquire about anything locally, you can just find Li Tong.

Li Tong asked curiously: "What is my brother doing looking for a big fishing boat?" Could it be that this fishing boat can also go to sea? ”

Of course, Li Tu would not tell Li Tong the details, so he said casually: "Brother wants to use it, you can tell me where it is." ”

Li Tong stood up and clapped his hands, and said, "Brother, don't worry, I'll help you inquire." ”

After saying that, Li Tong ran out. After a quarter of an hour, Li Tong ran back again.

Sitting back on the steps, Li Tong said: "Liu Er said that when he passed by Hualin Village a few days ago, he saw a big fishing boat in the village in the grass hut, and he thought it was idle. ”

After a pause, Li Tong said again: "Also, if this boat can't be used, go to Dongban Village." Dongban Village has the most fishing boats, and if you go there to find it, you will definitely be able to find idle big boats. ”

Li Tu found the information he needed, patted Li Tong on the shoulder, and went back to sleep.
