At the end of June, the sun was blazing.

Jing Nan lifted the cause of overheating Bai Jin changed into a short shirt early, and stayed at home to learn embroidery from Luo's.

The hard work pays off, and some small patterns of Bai Jinxiu are already very proficient, and even the water ducks are becoming more and more decent.

When she was free, she had time to ponder the pattern style she had embroidered in Hailing City before, but unfortunately her brain was stupid enough in this aspect, either the pattern had some stitches and vague memory, or she forgot some special embroidery methods, anyway, she was busy for half a month in vain.

I was not discouraged, but I was more energetic with embroidery, and time passed slowly.

When Bai Shan told her that the salt in the salt field was piled up into a mountain, Bai Jin realized that he was here to make salt, not to embroider!

Putting down what she was holding, she and Bai Shan went to the salt mill.

Although he had seen patches of salt piled up into a hill many times in Hailing, Bai Jin was still very excited when he saw the salt pans here.

The lake was now full of water that had turned into a hill-like pile of salt in the middle of the salt pans, glittering in the sun.

If there is a salt mill owner passing by, he will be frightened by so much salt.

The long worker had already begun to collect salt into the bag with a rake, and the two stood on the side and watched the salt bags around them gradually increase, until they were about to raise their necks to look at the salt bags.

There were more than ten salt bags piled up in front of them, each of which weighed a hundred catties, and Bai Shan couldn't help but mutter: "This is more than four times higher than the amount of fried salt......

Bai Jin had already taken out the abacus she had prepared for a long time and dialed it twice: "If it is all sold, remove the monthly silver of the long worker, and then remove the cost and the silver for the uncle......"

Turning his head and asking Bai Shandao, "How many catties of salt are fried in the salt mill?" ”

"Sixty pounds is less than a little."

"Then counting these, we will net twelve taels of silver!" Bai Jin quickly calculated it.

"So much?"

Bai Jin said quite skillfully: "Yes, a few days ago, many long-term workers didn't ask if there was a shortage of people in the salt mill, but after selling the salt in a few days, they would all accept it, and expand the salt field by the way." “

In her opinion, if Yantian just wants to make a simple living, it should be enough, and it is not difficult to live the same life as Bai Si, but her eyes are more than that.

Bai Shan wants to go to school, Bai Si stares at Yanfang with fierce eyes, and the mountain of the Liu family is overwhelming her, if she really wants to live a good life, Bai Jin feels that these are far from enough.

She's been coming up with ideas in her head these days, and she's trying to do it herself.

"Send all this salt to Liu's house tomorrow?"

"That's not necessary," Bai Jin frowned, and fiddled with the abacus twice, "Tomorrow, I have time to inquire about how much salt the salt mill on the side will send to the Liu family in a month, and we will give them seventy percent of the amount for the time being, in case the Liu family suspects." ”

"Okay." Bai Shan nodded.

Bai Jin was about to go back, when he suddenly remembered something and grabbed Bai Shan and said, "You don't have to tell anyone about salt." ”

"Okay." Bai Shan didn't quite understand this, but he still nodded.

On the second day, Bai Shan inquired about the amount of other salt mills, and then separated the salt bags and sent them to Liu's house.

This time Bai Jin didn't follow, she was busy calculating the account books at home.

In addition, the remaining salt was moved to the house like a baby, and Bai Jin dragged his cheeks and wondered if he was going to find someone to build a house outside and pile up idle salt.

When Bai Shan returned, Bai Jin talked to him, and he went to the village to find some people to build a spare house.

The salt sold this time was four taels of silver for the real price, and Bai Jin was not polite at all this time, so he sent one or two taels of silver to Bai Si.

Bai Si shook his eyebrows.

"Jin'er is a little uninteresting." Bai Si looked at a silver lamp on the table.

Bai Jin didn't think clearly: "Uncle said that Jin'er is not interesting enough?" ”

"In the previous rainy season, there wasn't much salt produced in the salt mill and I couldn't buy much silver, so I don't care if you give one or two, but this time the salt is not so little, right?"

Although because of the Liu family, Bai Si's attitude towards the Bai family eased slightly, but it was not so good.

He knew that Baishan produced more than this amount of salt this month.

Bai Jin's eyes narrowed slightly: "Uncle can ask, how much silver was sold for the silver we transported to the Liu family yesterday, it is only four taels, and the net income of the long-term workers you invited is only more than two taels, and it is already good to be able to take out one or two to honor the uncle." ”

"Only four taels of silver?" Bai Si knows the price of salt in the Liu family well, "The price of salt you collect in the Liu family is the price of cabbage." ”

Bai Jin sneered, to be honest, she felt that the Liu family was indeed cheating, and the price of salt in Hailing was the price of cabbage!

"Then how much silver does the uncle think there should be?" Bai Jin asked.

"Twenty taels of silver at least, right?"

Twenty taels of silver? Bai Jin calculated, it was just less than two thousand catties, but it was very close to reality.

Bai Jin's heart moved, but he said calmly on his face: "Uncle do you know how many catties of salt are for twenty taels of silver?" ”

"It's only about 2,000 catties." Bai Sixin said that he always knew this.

"Then Uncle can ask the salt farmers in the vicinity," Bai Jin said, "See which salt farmers can fry two thousand catties of salt a month." ”

Bai Si was stunned for a moment, Bai Jin shook his head and said, "I don't know if Uncle misheard what he said over there, our salt mill can produce so much salt." If there were so many, would our family still be so poor? ”

"What's more, there weren't so many before my father died, and now that my father has passed away......"

As she spoke, she lowered her head, with tears in her eyes, quite pitiful, and her scalp was a little numb.

Thinking about it, if the Bai family's salt mill sells the salt produced every month, it shouldn't be easy to get twenty taels and take out ten taels of silver?

"Alright," Bai Si said with a sigh of relief, "I'm afraid I misheard." ”

"Father......" Bai Jin still wiped his tears while muttering.

Bai Si was quite irritable, and pushed the one or two pieces of silver forward and said, "Don't cry, I don't want this month's silver." ”

Bai Jin saw through her fingers that the silver tael was pushed in front of her, she wanted to laugh in her heart, but she pretended to be embarrassed on her face, but she still reached out and took it and stuffed it into the bag.

"Thank you, uncle." With tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes, Bai Jin saluted obediently, "Then it's nothing, I'll go first." ”

After that, he left quickly, leaving him alone at home.

Didn't he clearly remember that he should be a villain, and he should be ruthless and unscrupulous in order to rob the Bai family's salt mill, how could he be returned to her by Bai Jin's Nizi who cried twice?

It must be because of the Liu family, and this girl's voice is too irritating.

One day, the Bai family's salt mill will be in his pocket.
