As she spoke, she pointed to the drawings that the man had laid out on the table, "Well, it's like this one, but when you harvest it, it's seven or eight rows of wheat." Childe thinks this thing is strange because no one has made it before, but in fact, to put it bluntly, this is a person's arms and hands are enlarged, imitating the action of people cutting wheat, there is nothing rare......"

The man saw that Lin Baoru said very casually, and he couldn't say it strangely in his heart, he always felt that something was wrong, but if he said it, he couldn't say it.

However, Lin Baoru didn't care about his deep expression, and then said: "If Gongzi walks more among the people in the future, he will probably be able to see more useful things that can benefit the people." When I used to hear a book, I heard an old man say that the wisdom of the people is infinite, and as long as there is a need, there will be results......"

When the man heard this, he looked at Lin Baoru more and more surprised. He was a well-read man, but he had never heard of such a thing. Partial birth, these words pondered in my heart, as if there was some truth in it.

He was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "Where is the storyteller?" ”

Lin Baoru sneered, "Childe asked this, the storyteller is naturally a performer from various tea stalls on the street, and I really don't know where he is from." When my father was alive, I met him once when I went to the market, and I haven't been in the market for many years, and I don't have the heart to drink tea, so naturally I can't meet any storytellers. ”

When the man heard this, he sighed with some regret. If the storyteller is here, maybe he can still ask for advice. It's not that it's for the fame of the money, but that the person who can say those words must know the folk about it......

He asked a few more questions, but heard nothing interesting. Coupled with Lin Baoru's rhetoric, there was nothing inappropriate, so he felt that he was probably too careful, although this girl was bold but there was no sign of being taught, probably as she said, the plunder was just forced to come up with her distress for her young brothers and sisters.

The man didn't ask any more questions, and instead mentioned that he wanted to make a living by trading plunder with Lin Baoru.

This was out of Lin Baoru's expectations, originally she looked at the person in front of her as an official, but now when it comes to business, she is a little uncertain.

However, looking for a door-to-door business, she naturally has no reason to refuse. Besides, even if the person in front of him is a businessman, he must not be an ordinary person, if he can get in touch, he may be able to use it in the future.

Thinking of this, Lin Baoru smiled and talked to him about his agreement with the carpenter master, and then the two of them considered and screened down this agreement, and decided to sell the plunder.

At this time, Lin Baoru knew that the son in front of him also had several woodware shops in the state city. Now, at the time of the wheat harvest, it is just the right time to sell a wave of plunder.

As for the matter of discussing business and drafting documents and contracts, Lin Baoru is now familiar with the road, that is, when it comes to the provisions, they are very strict.

This made the people who came more and more surprised, and even the few officials behind the boy were a little surprised.

Fortunately, he knew that his son-in-law was talking about business, so even if they were strange, they showed something.

It's just that Wang looked at those people and only felt that his legs and feet were weak. But thinking about her daughter, she only sat on the side to support her daughter.

"The girl also knows that this plunder has been presented to the state capital, that is, it is sold in the lower shop, and I am afraid that I can only get the opportunity of this season. Since I am a businessman, I am naturally profitable, so I still have a reluctant request at the moment. The boy restrained his smile slightly, looked at Lin Baoru and said.

Lin Baoru smiled slightly, and was not polite to him, and said directly: "Childe, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"In the future, if the girl has such utensils, she needs to cooperate with my Xiao family's woodware shop first. Of course, as long as the things are suitable, Xiao will not treat the girl badly in terms of price. ”

Lin Baoru smiled and nodded in response: "This is also reasonable, you just have to rest assured." ”

Her expression was calm and generous, although she could not say that she could compare with the rich and noble daughters in the capital, but the neatness was enough to make people look away.

Therefore, in addition to wanting to test her meaning, Xiao Zijie has a good impression of Lin Baoru's own behavior. Of course, this good feeling does not involve the love of men and women, it is purely a feeling.

After the two parties discussed the business matters, there was naturally no need for the Xiao family to stay longer.

I don't know what he was thinking, but before leaving, he looked back at the closed wooden door a few times, and left with a chuckle after a while.

When he arrived, he saw a corner of the man's clothes, and two officials dressed in the clothes of the servants and riding horses.

He frowned, he had seen all the officials in the yamen of Liulin Town, but he had never seen these few speeding in front of him.

In his opinion, the frame of these two people is a bit like what Wei came out of.

However, the people in the guard have always cared about the affairs of the yamen, and it is definitely impossible to mix together. Thinking like this, Li Zheng only thinks too much about himself.

When he saw a few of the Wang family, he opened his mouth to ask, knowing that it was for the plunder, and Li Zheng was relieved.

Before he left the box, the yamen came again. Among the people who came back, it was Zhou Zhutou in the county government.

Because Lin Li is in front of Zhou Zhutou, he also has some friendship, and Zhou Zhutou's wife is friends with Mrs. Liu, so now that he has arrived in the second room of the Lin family, his attitude is naturally very kind.

When Li was helping Lin Baoru inquire about the whereabouts of the previous people, he didn't hide it.

"The son of the Xiao family you are talking about is probably the son from the capital. But I really don't know where he came from, that is, the county lord asked the yamen to be more vigilant before, and he should be more respectful when he meets that son. The meaning of those words seemed to mean that he had something to do with the former emperor Xiao Mubai. ”

In these years, although the status of merchants is low, once the emperor is hung, it is not the same as ordinary merchants.

Who knows, how many dignitaries and nobles in the Xiao family's capital are good friends? In case they don't get into trouble with their eyes, I'm afraid that the errand officials in this small place will not be enough for people to secretly move their fingers to pinch.

Zhou Zhutou drank a bowl of mung bean soup, sighed pleasantly, and continued, "But I know that he is probably very interested in your predator." ”

Zhou Zhutou said that the Yamen reward that he came to send today was almost not going to fall on the second room of the Lin family.

Half a month ago, because of her meritorious work in studying predators, the Yamen reported to the governor and the prefect.

At the beginning, it was Niu Zhizhou, who was Zhao Li's uncle, who first detained the drawing, saying that he wanted to study it. But no one with a discerning eye can see it, he is afraid that he will be greedy for Mo's credit.

It's just that Carpenter Zhao has already started a business with Lin Baoru and sold a lot of finished products on the market. It just so happened that one of the finished products fell into the hands of the young owner of the Xiao family who came from the capital, and the young owner was also a thoughtful person, and he could see the doorway at a glance.

So, he went directly to the state government to find the prefect, first, for his own business, and he should visit the local area for the first time. Second, it is also good to sell the prefect, so that the prefect can promote the plunder to the Ministry of Industry as soon as possible.

This time he went, didn't it break Niu Zhizhou's mind. Cola Literature

Next, he even asked the prefect for a promise that in the future, the yamen would launch a plunder, and he would first have to sell it in his Xiao family's shop.

As for his sudden coming over today, I'm afraid it has something to do with it.

"But these things, I heard from my brother who went to the state city to report back and came back to learn. He didn't know what was going on inside, so he was also guessed and talked about by hearsay. After all, if you are an errand boy in the yamen, you can hear some letters, and you may not be able to do anything. ”

Anyway, no matter what, because the son of the Xiao family intervened sideways, and as soon as the person sent by the county government to report came to the door, the matter could not be hidden.

Therefore, this merit naturally returned to Taoxi Village, Liulin Town.

The prefect personally asked, and the people below did not dare to conceal it, so they directly reported Carpenter Zhao.

And Carpenter Zhao is not a black-hearted person, after figuring out the reason, he bluntly said that this plunder was only beaten by his own hands, but in fact it was created by the daughter of the Lin family in Taoxi Village.

In this way, won't the reward invited by the county government fall directly on Lin Baoru's head?

Speaking of which, the reward is not much, but it is only five taels of silver. It's just that unlike the others, everyone knows that in this way, Lin Baoru is famous in the yamen, not only the county government but even the state government and the prefect, but also has the opportunity for her to speak.

However, at the beginning, Lin Baoru didn't think of this, she just sighed a little.

It was only later that there were more people who came to the door to talk about it, and she knew that in addition to the way to put a name in the yamen for studying and examining merit in this dynasty, she could also gain a reputation by researching agricultural tools that were beneficial to agriculture and mulberry.

But that's fine, it's good for her to be right and right. In case she has a lawsuit with her a day later, she can say a few words in the yamen, rather than being tormented because of her unknown origin.

As for the magnificent and jade-like son of the Xiao family, Lin Baoru didn't take it to heart, and it could even be said that he forgot about it when he turned around.

After all, although Zhou Zhutou's words were a little different from that person, they were not much different. Therefore, that person is probably just a wealthy businessman with an official background, as Zhou Zhutou said.

And she probably won't have the opportunity to work with him in the future. After all, she hadn't heard of any local Xiao family shop that made rouge gouache and groceries.

Because Xu Qingqing always said that his stomach was heavy and his waist was sore, when his head was late, the Qian family went back with Wang Shulin. After all, there is no reason for a woman to give birth to a child at this age.

Even if you are born in a relative's house, it is also unlucky. Especially when Baoru is about to get married, if she is bumped into by the woman who gave birth at this time, she is afraid that her luck will be ruined.

Lin Baoru didn't believe this, but the Qian family was particular about the Wang family, and Aunt Lu also said that if Xu Qingqing gave birth to a child here and was confined, I was afraid that the older generation in the village would not agree.

Not to mention that this is a relative who is turning a corner, even if it is a daughter who marries out of Taoxi Village, if she comes back for confinement, then everyone in the village will let her mother's family clean the street. At that time, the sound of firecrackers will be light, but if there is a family on the same street, the mother's family will have to personally send rice and noodles.

It's not that the big guy can't see those girls have babies, and it's not that he doesn't feel sorry for her. It's just that the older generation pays attention to reincarnation, saying that there is a definite number of people who add to the population and lose the population, but if the girl who marries outside gives birth to a baby in her mother's house, the mother who sends the child will send a child to her mother's house.

Therefore, the big guy would rather have more joys and sorrows in the house than add a person with a foreign body.

Lin Baoru also knew that this was not something she believed or not, after all, it was a taboo, not to mention that everything was ready on the Wang family's side. If she stops, she will be unreasonable.

Although the Qian family left, Wang Shulin and Wang Bin still stayed in the workshop to help.

So, it's not too tight now. At the very least, normal output is fine.

In the evening, after Wang Niang washed up, she leaned on the kang and gossiped. I don't know where to go, Wang Fei pulled his own Baoru to make the kang table, and lit the oil lamp for the first time, watching his daughter calculate the accounts one by one.

It just so happened that Lin Baoru also wanted to explain the income and outflow of the workshop to the Wang family, so she was patient and counted with her. Naturally, while chattering, she watched Cairu and Caihe ask the two of them to help with the calculation.

Xiaoshan is young, and although he is learning to count, he naturally doesn't know anything about accounting. But this did not prevent him, he followed on the edge of the kang table and joined in the fun with everyone.

When I built a house in front of me, I basically used up the rest of the family. Therefore, now she is talking about the income and expenses after building a house and closing the account.

"In May, we connected Brother Li's and Liu's shop and collected ten taels of silver. There are also some trivial shop orders, and I also got six hundred and twenty copper plates......" Lin Baoru roughly summarized the input, and then said, "In June, because of rose soap and rose water, we got sixteen taels of silver. ”

"The soap block in front of us has a low cost, and many of the items used are provided by Liu's shop, so there is no expense. But the copper pots and glass bottles and jars I sold later were purchased by ourselves, and it cost four or three hundred dollars, plus some soybean flour and eggs, and oiled paper, and the cost was a full five taels of silver. Therefore, we only have a balance of ten taels of silver in June. ”

"Excluding Aunt Lu's wages, or our own expenses and the belongings purchased by our family, plus the five taels of silver rewarded by the Yamen, our family should have more than 20 taels of surplus now......

As she spoke, she looked at Wang.

Wang smiled and leaned over and took out a cloth bag wrapped in oiled paper from the kang hole, which contained a full three-ingot silver ingot.

didn't wait for Lin Baoru to say anything, Wang Shi had already happily touched the silver ingot on the table and spoke, "Originally, my mother was worried about whether the workshop could be done. Who knows, you really turned our murderous house into a cornucopia, and even the storyteller wouldn't dare to say that. ”

"My mother has thought about it, the workshop is yours, and the silver is also earned by you, so it doesn't matter whether it is a workshop or silver, it should be your dowry. With these, when you marry the Liu family, your mother won't worry about you being trampled! Xu remembered the absurd things of the young master of the Liu family a few days ago, and the Wang family was in a good mood just now, and he was inexplicably a little depressed.

She glanced at her daughter, full of melancholy. What if you don't practice it! That young master, if he just doesn't pay attention to things, it's just that he likes male style......

My own daughter, who is like a flower and jade, is no matter how capable she is after marrying, what can she rely on? If it's just that a man can't be trusted, he can still count on a child and give birth to a ......

Wang wanted to speak and stopped, it can be seen that his daughter didn't think much about it, and the words that blocked her heart were a little unspeakable.

Lin Baoru saw that Wang's eyes were a little red, and hurriedly put down the account book in her hand, snuggled up to her and comforted her, "Mother, I know that you feel sorry for me, and I am afraid that I will be wronged in the future, but I still say the same thing, as long as my mother and eldest brother love me, I will rely on it in the future." No matter how high the door of his Liu family is, your daughter can stand ......"

Wang opened his mouth, sighed, suppressed the worry in his heart, and reluctantly smiled: "My mother is reluctant to let you go, when I think of you suffering with my mother, my mother can't say how uncomfortable it is in my heart." ”

When Tian Baoru was the beginning, the situation of the family was better, although the man in his family did not have great ability, but he also felt sorry for her to follow the first girl.

It's just that there are many things in the future, and my own man is caught between himself and his mother-in-law. She could only lead the child and endure it, wanting to please her mother-in-law, but who knew that she could only live in a thatched hut with hunger and cold.

With some tears in her eyes, she raised her hand and touched her daughter's hair, and said distressedly: "My mother always thought that it would be good to boil it again, and it would be good to stay up until you grow up." Even when I can't get through it, when my mother sees your brothers and sisters being sensible, she thinks that life is harder, at least the children are good. ”
