Chapter 81: Jealousy
"But," Luo's words changed, "your uncle and I are not forcing you, I have told you many times, and you are not too young......"
Bai Jin said with a headache: "Jin'er knows, but there are some things that are really not in a hurry." ”
She was about to say more, but saw Bai Qi standing at the door of the kitchen and gestured to her.
Patting Luo's hand, Bai Jin gave her a look and asked her what was going on.
Bai Qi pointed to the outside of the house under the fence, and spat out two words with his mouth.
Brother-in-law.
Bai Jin knew in his heart, and got up without moving, and saw two bloated figures in the corner.
Moving his mouth, Bai Jin asked silently: How long have you been here?
Bai Qi moved his mouth and said: Just arrived.
It seems that when he just came back, he opened the door of the courtyard and left it unlocked, but the two of them mixed in.
Bai Jin smiled and changed the subject: "Does A-Niang know that I sold 10,000 catties of salt before you left and earned 500 taels of silver?" ”
Luo's eyelids jumped, Bai Jin was the first time to talk to her about these things, and she also knew what Bai Jin meant when she said this, but she was still scared by her.
"In the first few months, we produced a lot of salt, and the salt mill produced 10,000 catties of salt in a few months." In order to make the tone more exaggerated, Bai Jin almost used his hand.
"It's a pity," she said in a different tone, "the contract we signed with Uncle was only for one year, and Uncle Can't get any of that money." ”
There was a little sadness in her tone, as if she was lamenting that Bai Si couldn't get the money.
The people squatting outside were a little impatient, originally the two of them were fat and not suitable for squatting for a long time, but now when they heard Bai Jin's words, their hearts itched.
Five hundred taels of silver, half of which is two hundred and fifty taels!
Bai Si's eyes were full of greed.
He couldn't hold it anymore, got up and knocked on the door, "Is anyone there?" ”
Bai Jin asked Bai Qi to open the door, and after seeing Bai Qi and Hua's, she felt that the two of them were swollen again.
"Yo, aunt and uncle, I haven't seen you for a few days." Bai Jinpi smiled and went to serve them tea.
The tea and teacups at home are all left over from Ning Tonghua before, and I don't know where he got these things, this tea has just come out of the tea soup Bai Jin asked about the tea fragrance, although the taste is light but quite clear, I think it is a good tea. Not to mention the teacup, the new porcelain fired in Longquan kiln will actually appear here.
Bai Si was also shocked when he didn't know the goods anymore.
Squinted at Bai Jin and Luo's, now the two of them are no longer wearing coarse cloth and maze, seeing Bai Jin's plain white magnolia scattered flowers full-breasted skirt covered with a feather saro shirt, and a pair of red peony shoes under the long skirt are also added to the side of the blue beads, which really has a bit of a young lady's taste.
Hua Shi looked a little jealous.
"What we want to talk about when we come to the door today is about the salt mill......" Bai Si rubbed his hands.
Bai Jin sat down beside Luo's side with his skirt and said: "If I'm not mistaken, we only signed a one-year contract with the uncle, and we can't earn silver in a year. ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Bai Si responded, "It's just ......"
And that's just it? Bai Jin showed a displeased look on his face and said, "I have the testimony in my hand, the uncle won't want to rob it again, right?" ”
"Where is Jin'er," Bai Si wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "I'm your uncle, how could I rob your family's salt mill." ”
Bai Jin clasped his hands around his chest and sneered, this is not certain, a year ago, he had the idea of Mingqiang, and if he didn't work hard in it, this salt mill would not belong to him for a long time.
The current Bai family is no longer what it used to be, not only does it have more silver, but it also has enough confidence, but also when Bai Si Kai comes to them, there is Jingnan Hou Mansion behind them, how dare they mess around?
I heard that the Liu family was also beaten by Jingnanhou recently, and he didn't dare to find Jingnanhou's bad luck.
I can only regret that I believed that they couldn't make any money at the beginning, and I was too anxious to take the salt mill into my pocket, but if I was soft-hearted, the time set was two years, and I could get a lot of silver.
By the time he came back to his senses, the Bai family had already gone a long way.
"Then what's the matter with Uncle coming over today?"
Bai Si said cheekily: "Now that the family has some spare money, your aunt and I are looking for ideas to buy your salt mill." ”
Bai Jin felt that a fish had come in the fishing net she had cast, and she began to collect the net unhurriedly.
"Uncle, don't joke with me, our Bai family can now rely on this salt mill to feed this family, you bought my salt shop and let us drink the northwest wind?"
Bai Si said with a shy face: "I have already heard that your family has earned five hundred taels of silver, and your uncle naturally wants to buy this salt mill for silver, and he can also divide two more pieces of land for your family, and your family will have no worries about food and clothing for decades, and you see that we are all relatives ......." ”
If you talk about the entire Jingnan City, in addition to Liu Xianneng, the shameless one is her uncle Bai Si, which is really not much different from Ming Qiang, and she wants to use the identity of her relatives to suppress Bai Jin.
What kind of relative is this?
"How much silver is the uncle going to use?"
"Silver...... Bai Si's tongue suddenly turned against him, and he said vaguely, "Two or three hundred taels of silver......
"What?" Bai Jin pricked up his ears and said, "Uncle God, the wind was a little strong just now, Jin'er didn't hear clearly!" ”
Bai Si's face was a little unbearable, since the beginning of last year, Bai Jin has hardly let them have a comfortable day, his heart is on fire but he still said with a smile on his face: "You can't take out much silver, there is always something in this land, how much you want." ”
Who wants his land, Bai Jin doesn't know, although Bai Si has many fields, but they are all thin fields, and the harvest in the past few years is not good, otherwise how could he have the idea of salt fields.
"I want a piece of land," Bai Jin said with some hesitation, "If Uncle can give it to me, I am even willing to give up the salt mill without money." ”
"Jin'er say it quickly." Bai Si said with joy in his heart.
"Then I'll say it directly," Bai Jin took a sip of tea and moistened his throat, "I want the land in Jingnan City." ”
Bai Si's smile froze: "That piece of land in Jingnan City ......"
Bai Jin took the tea and said: "This should be asked uncle, don't you know which piece of land it is?" ”
Before Bai Si could speak, Hua Shi hurriedly said, "No! Do you still want our house in Jingnan City? ”
As soon as these words came out, even Luo's was shocked, Bai Jin actually beat Bai Si's idea of a house in Jingnan City?!
Seeing that his daughter was calm and relaxed, it was obviously not a whim, it was estimated that she had already made a plan in her heart, and it seemed that she came back from Jingnan City this time to wait for Bai Si.
