"Thank you." Shangguan Yu sincerely thanked him, poured a cup of tea for Duan Yulang, and continued: "I will leave Zifeng here, and he will take over the matter of grain and grass." ”

After the two talked about food and grass, they returned to their usual mode of getting along, all kinds of ridicule but full of concern for each other.

On the street, Bai Ling's eyes fell on the location of the two more than once, and his good-looking brows furrowed several times.

"It can't be Duan Yulang's tasteless person peeking at me, right?" Bai Ling pouted, muttered to himself in an extremely low voice, and felt that his thoughts were ridiculous.

The other party is the young master of the richest family in Fucheng, where does he have time to peek at her as a peasant girl, if it weren't for the partnership, I'm afraid I wouldn't remember who she was.

Shangguan Yu passed by Wufu Town this time, and he didn't mean to stay for a long time, and he didn't go to see Bai Ling.

The matter of grain and grass was not so easy to handle, so Shangguan Yu sent Zifeng to find Bai Ling first, bought a large number of Songhua eggs and canned food and other food, and checked what Bai Ling had experienced recently, and then set off to return to Beijing.

One is to report the war to the emperor, and the other is to ask for new soldiers, after all, after months of war, the Zixiao army has suffered heavy losses, not only need to make up for new soldiers, but also need the court to get a consolation money.

The most important thing is that in Princess Han's letters, she was worried about both father and son, and Shangguan Yu needed to report safety.

Bai Ling, who was in Nanshan Village, didn't know about these things, and only became a subordinate sent by Shangguan Yu to procure, and he was happy to earn a sum of silver.

"Daddy, it's a young year, and our chestnuts can be sold until the end of the year at most. I have two plans that I would like to discuss with you. Bai Ling sat on the kang and braided Bai Xing.

The new head rope I bought today, Bai Xing likes it very much, and Bai Ling is also happy to give her a beating.

"Say it." Bai Sanshu and Bai Wei were counting the money, and they didn't raise their heads.

Bai Liushi was making shoes, and when he heard this, he glanced up at Bai Ling, and said with a sneer: "You girl, now you are in charge of the family, just say whatever you want." ”

Bai Ling grinned, and the movements of his hands did not stop, "I thought, before the new year, let's go to the town together for a day as a family." Our family has made a lot of money this year, and we should do more New Year's goods to have a good year. Besides, Xing'er and Xiaoshan have never been to the town, and the eldest sister is also the first time to return to the door after the year, which is also the first year that our family has been separated. ”

"This is okay, you can buy whatever you want when the time comes." Bai Liushi immediately clapped his head.

"I'm still thinking about something, just do what the second girl said." Bai Sanshu agreed.

"Second sister, how much silver does our family have now?" Bai Wei took the time to ask.

Most of the chestnuts sold were copper coins, which had to be exchanged for silver every once in a while, and then they were all stored in Bai Ling.

All the income of the family is in Bai Ling's, and Bai Wei has not calculated it carefully.

"I have seven hundred taels of silver, and dozens of taels of silver, and I haven't counted them." Bai Ling replied.

"What, why are there so many?" The Bailiu clan almost got into his hands, and he couldn't believe that his family had saved so much silver in less than a year.

"My father and mother sold chestnuts for more than two months, and they made nearly eighty taels of silver. Bai Wei's winter vegetables earned nearly two hundred taels of silver. The medicinal herbs were sold for a total of dozens of taels of silver, as well as the two squares and jewelry drawings I sold. Remove the cost and that's all that's left. Bai Ling said lightly.

In fact, Bai Ling earned more than a thousand taels of silver by himself, except for the expenses in the early stage of the space, which were all exchanged for gold in the thatched hut where the space existed, Bai Ling did not say it.

"Oh my God, isn't our family a big family in the village?" Bai Liushi said happily, but then said with a bitter face: "It would be good if your eldest sister got married later, with a good dowry, you can also find a good mother-in-law." ”

"When the eldest sister returns to the door, let's discuss with the eldest sister and give her a dowry, so that the eldest sister can straighten her waist at her in-law's house, and my mother can rest assured." Bai Ling had already thought about this stubble, and chuckled: "Go back and buy a few more sets of noodles for the eldest sister, this has become a pro-little daughter-in-law wearing jewelry, but it's pretty, it's also the face and confidence given by the mother's family, isn't it?" ”

"Cheng, when we go to town, we'll buy a few more sets for your eldest sister." Bai Liu nodded.

Bai Sanshu acquiesced to the words of the mother and daughter, and felt that Bai Cao should be given a dowry.

"Second sister, what is the second thing you said?" Bai Wei asked.

"The Songhua egg has been made, and this difficulty is not too big. I thought that when the spring of next year would be open and the eggs would be harvested, we would buy all the land next to our house, build a factory, and hire people from the village to help make Songhua eggs. In this way, the people in the village have an extra income, and we don't have to go far, and our family can earn more silver. Bai Lingdao.

"What if someone learns it and sells it by himself?" Bai Wei frowned and said disapprovingly: "There are not many people like the Chen family in the village, but there are also many people who are cautious. ”

"I'll leave this matter to the village chief and the patriarch to worry about. We hire people to do the work, and we have to sign an agreement, and whoever dares to do this will wait for a lawsuit. When the factory is built, we will take out a dividend of 10% every year to build an ancestral hall for the clan, or build roads and bridges for the village. ”

After being combed with Bai Xing's braids, Bai Ling also got up and counted the copper coins, and continued:

"Originally, after the beginning of the year, we were going to open up wasteland and build new houses. But our family suddenly has money, and live partially, I'm afraid that some people are uneasy and kind, and it is still us who will suffer at that time, so it is better to let everyone follow, and by the way, let everyone in the village know that following the three rooms will only get better and better, so that the big guys will really maintain the three rooms. ”

Bai Wei was silent, she could understand the truth, but she was a little uncomfortable.

Bai Sanshu and Bai Liu's ears were soft, and Bai Ling agreed almost without thinking about it after speaking.

"Your sisters still have to make that tofu, and you don't have time to be busy with anything else, so let's do it." Bai Sanshu put aside a bunch of money, and said with some excitement: "Second girl, if you want to buy land, I will go to the village chief's house now and tell me about it, what do you think?" ”

"Done." Bai Ling couldn't help but smile, pretended to take out a fifty taels of silver ticket from his sleeve and handed it to Bai Sanshu, and then took two more pieces of money to him, "Dad paid the deposit first, and the money for the village chief's activities, and when the matter is confirmed, let's make up the remaining silver." ”

"Dad is just going to ask where to get the silver." Bai Sanshu didn't answer, a little afraid that he would break the silver ticket.

"Then Daddy will bring some pine eggs and fried chestnuts with sugar. It is estimated that the ones sent last time have already been eaten by the village chief's family. When Bai Ling heard this, he put away the silver ticket.

Bai Sanshu answered, put on cotton shoes, put on a cotton jacket and went out, and his walking posture was a little floating.

Bai Ling held back a smile, thinking that if he really became a landlord, would Bai Sanshu be happy and not walk.

"Mother, after the New Year, shall we go to pay New Year's greetings to my grandfather's house?" and Bai Wei put the copper coins they had worn in the basket, and Bai Ling asked out loud.

Bai Liu's face turned pale, and he picked the wick with the tip of the needle, and sighed: "Your grandfather hasn't written from them for several years, and my mother doesn't know where they are now." ”

Bai Wei bumped into Bai Ling and reminded in a low voice: "Second sister, why don't you open which pot to mention?" It's been a few years since my grandfather's family moved away, and when I landed in the first year, I had a message, and you forgot it? ”

"Uh......" Bai Ling was embarrassed, the original owner didn't seem to take this matter seriously, so she ignored it.
