Zhang Orion immediately said: "Our eldest man still doesn't want to study." Anyway, I've learned about the same, and it's okay to calculate a small account. There's a lot of literacy. It's so much better than me. It's good to save a sum of money. I originally wanted to pay for this conscription. I think it's better to forget it, I'll still go in person, and I can save a fortune. ”

The board said enviously: "Your eldest man is fine." It's going to be profitable right away. Our eldest man still doesn't know what year and month he went. Even if you really take the middle school entrance exam, I'm afraid it's useless. After all, Xiucai will be exempt from tax and forced labor. I don't know how many years it will take. This time I went to repair the road, and I still went with it. It's good to save money. Ay! ”

After speaking, he looked at Erlang with a regretful face, and felt remorseful in his heart.

The board said: "In the early years, I should have saved money and borrowed money to do business with you." ”

Erlang smiled and said, "I'll let you be together." I have said it several times, and you yourself do not agree. I feel that business is much better now, and I don't want to go outside. If the three of us had done it together, it would have been even better now. I don't have to be deceived by my subordinates to check the accounts from time to time. It's also very tiring. ”

I'm tired, and I'm tired, and I'm making money. Now there is no need to worry about money like the two of them.

Erlang licked his lips and asked, "I have to tell Uncle Nine about this matter." Don't spread the word, though. There's no order from above yet, so let's hold on to it. It's not good to make a fuss and cause trouble. I don't want to be affected. ”

Naturally, this matter was handed over to the board to say. Jiro is not contaminated.

Erlang coughed twice and said, "This is one hundred taels of silver, and I will write you an IOU." You tell Uncle Nine about this. I went home first. ”

I didn't understand what Erlang was going to do, the board scratched his head, Zhang Orion left dejectedly, and the board took the IOU to find Uncle Nine. Uncle Nine took the IOU and said in a slurped voice: "You, you have been following Mo Erlang for so long, and you can learn a little bit of his mind for a lifetime." ”

"Huh?" The board looked confused.

Uncle Nine sighed, waved his hand and asked the board to leave quickly, seeing too many stupid children who were afraid that they would be angry to death by their unsuccessful descendants.

Banzi looked at Uncle Nine's undisguised disgust on his face, and left stupidly. I turned my head and wanted to ask Erlang about the mountain goods, but I was afraid that I would have to slow down, and when I went to knock on the door, no one answered. Next door, Zhang Orion's head stuck out and said, "They just left." ”

"Gone?" The board was dumbfounded.

Zhang Orion opened the door, and the board followed.

Zhang Orion said: "When I came back, I saw them packing up their things and driving the mules away. Erlang said, let me tell you, he won't do the business of collecting mountain goods. I'll leave it to the two of us later. He won't come back for the New Year, and he will have to live in the county seat in the future, and I'm afraid he will rarely come back. said that Pingping was going to be sent to a private school, and the county education was good, so he stayed in the county. ”

Dizzy board, dry swallowing.

Erlang, who was driving the mule cart and leaving with his belongings, whistled, and turned back to look at Lan Niang and the child from time to time. When they arrived in the town, they asked the mother and son to keep the car and knock on the door of Lao Mo's house with a bag of money.

The porter knew Mo Erlang and said respectfully: "The old lady went to the county seat to watch a play." I won't come back until the winter solstice. ”

Mo Erlang twitched the corners of his mouth and only said, "Then it's nothing." Wait for my mother to come back. You tell her, our family went to live in the county seat. I'll send the letter when I'm settled. ”
