Chapter 139
Relying on Songhua eggs and salted duck eggs, Liu Jixiang made a lot of money, although he didn't make as much as selling pickles, but it was also a lot of income, it was only less than half a year, and she saved nearly 300 taels of silver by relying on these two incomes.
When Liu Ruyi came back, Liu Jixiang said to him: "We have saved so much money, do you want to buy fields and shops?" ”
Liu Ruyi really didn't expect his sister to be able to make so much money, and said with a look of admiration, "Sister, you are so capable, it's only been less than a year, and you have saved so much money!"
But you're right, it's not a way to put so much money there, let's buy a house and buy land, but good land is not so easy to buy, unless you can't live at home, you will sell land, otherwise you can't buy good land at all! ”
Liu Jixiang heard this statement for the first time, he thought that he could buy anything with money, but he didn't expect that sometimes money could not buy everything.
"In that case, let's buy a small shop, people say that a prosperous shop can raise three generations!" Liu Jixiang continued.
"That's fine!" Liu Ruyi nodded, "Then I'll listen to my sister, anyway, our family has opened a small workshop, if you buy a shop, you can store things in the shop and sell them at that time!" ”
Since the discussion was good, early in the morning of the second day, Liu Jixiang went to the town again, first looked for the people over there, and began to look at the shops, but his estimate was wrong, the shops in the general location were sold, but no one sold the good location at all.
"Nowadays, people are all human spirits, and good shops keep money to make money, how can they sell to others!" Ren Yazi sighed, "Otherwise, you can buy a few shops at will, anyway, they are all shops, although they don't make much, but there is an income!" ”
Liu Jixiang was naturally unwilling, if he couldn't buy a better one, he was absolutely unwilling to compromise, so this matter persisted, but he didn't expect such a stalemate to go directly to July and June.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, Li Chen came back and lost a lot of weight, and he rested at home for three or four days before he recovered and began to walk around slowly.
Liu Jixiang really didn't expect that an exam would make people like this, is it because the questions are difficult? But no matter how difficult it is, it can't drain all the spirit of people!
"It's not because the topic is difficult, it's because the living environment is poor!" Li Chen explained: "The place of the exam is in a small house, and it takes three days in a row, and the legs can't be straightened, let alone eating and drinking, etc., if you can pick a good place, it is naturally excellent, but if you pick it is very close to the toilet, then you will basically fail the test!"
But I'm lucky, the place I picked is relatively late from the toilet, so I didn't smell anything, but it was particularly energy-consuming, in fact, my situation is already very good, like I have some classmates, just out of the exam room, I passed out directly to the ground, and some people even fainted halfway through the exam! ”
Liu Jixiang nodded, he didn't expect them to take the exam for so long, he still remembered that when they took the college entrance examination, they would take the test for an hour and a half at most, and if they had to take the test in a row, they would only take the test for three or four hours, and there was no so-called three or four days at all.
"By the way, sister-in-law, I heard my mother say that you stopped selling bamboo shoots and started selling other things, is this true?" Li Chen asked with concern.
Liu Jixiang didn't hide it, and nodded, "Yes, I recently started making salted duck eggs to sell, and there are some other things!" ”
As for what it is, Liu Jixiang won't say it stupidly, Liu Jixiang didn't want to stay anymore after asking everything that should be asked, and when he turned around and was about to return to his room, Li Chen said: "Sister-in-law is almost half a year away, even if the agreement between us is over, I will give you things at that time!" ”
Liu Jixiang stopped, "That's the best!" ”
"But sister-in-law, I'm really weird, why do you have to ask for that? That thing is not valuable, and there is nothing valuable......" Li Chen has always been curious about this.
"If you like it, you want it!" Liu Jixiang said casually.
Li Chen didn't continue to ask, ten days later, an official sent to beat the gong and drum to report the good news, one Li Chen won the show, and he was still the 7th.
If you don't need to celebrate if you are a child before, but Xiucai is different, Xiucai is a person who is really out of class, and if you win Xiucai, not only do you not have to serve in the military, but you don't have to kneel when you see the old man of the county.
This talent is very important to the whole village, especially since their village has not produced a famous person for decades, the village chief was so happy that he not only said that he would pay for a banquet, but also said that he would pay for Li Chen to study.
This made the Li family very happy, although he can still support his son to study, but once the second son is supported to study, what will happen to the younger son and the youngest daughter?
Now that everything has been solved, many people visited after his son was admitted to Xiucai, and a lot of gifts were given, and some people even sent some money, which directly solved their family's urgent needs.
Li has so much money, completely relieved, and after the banquet in the house, he will send the golden egg to study, and Jin Feng, who used to let her go out to play, but now it is not allowed, the former Jin Feng was a country girl, but now Jin Feng is the sister of the Xiucai master, this identity is different, then she can no longer be like a country girl, let her run around, let her stay at home embroidery, do some simple housework, let her not go out of the door, Be a real lady.
Jin Dan was naturally happy to hear that he could go to study, but after reading for two days, he was discouraged, because reading is not fun at all, and if he can't memorize it, he will be slapped by the teacher, and he still has so much homework to do every day, and his head is big.
Li was angry, and he had to let Jin Dan study, "What do you know, only reading can make a difference, you see that your second brother has so many people to send him money because of his reading, and so many people have to send him things, not only that, but even the village chief has to provide for him!" ”
Jin Dan stretched his face, "Then just let my brother have a chance, why do you have to add me?" I really don't want to go to school anymore, the teacher just hit my hand, it hurts too much! ”
"Oh, why are you so stupid, you dead child, look at that Liu Ruyi, it's so easy for people to study, and they don't complain about being tired, why can't you!" Li said angrily.
As soon as Liu Ruyi was mentioned, Jin Dan hurriedly said: "It's okay to let me study, you have to buy me a schoolbag that is exactly the same as his, otherwise I won't go to study!" ”
Li Shi felt that the schoolbag was nothing, and nodded, "Okay, I promise you, I'll buy you one tomorrow!" ”
