Chapter 302: Don't show your wealth

"Son, why are you so excited?"

Liu Wan couldn't help but smile when she saw Wang Xiao jumping up.

She felt the excitement on Wang Xiao's face.

In fact, after she came here, she was quite excited when she made so much money for the first time.

Of course, it's good to have money, but who doesn't want to have plenty of money to do big things?

When she wanted to hoard supplies before, she didn't dare to spend much money, and at most took out 1/5 of her daily turnover to buy some meat, seafood, etc., and these materials also had to cope with the consumption of three meals a day, so the actual hoarding was not much.

In order to save more life-saving materials, she usually has to go up the mountain to dig konjac, harvest taro stalks, pick bracken, and dig bamboo shoots.

She's really saved money to the extreme.

Now that she has money, if this income is stable, she will be much more comfortable in the future, and she can also have money to hoard some more living materials at any time.

Buy, buy, buy, no longer a dream.

became rich overnight, Wang Xiao couldn't return to Liu Lai for a while, and he had the feeling of being hit by a meatloaf falling from the sky.

"Mother, can I not be excited? I didn't make as much money in this life as I do today. Wang Xiao's eyes were about to burst into tears.

"Xiao'er, this is just the beginning, our family will be richer in the future.

However, in this world, we must not show our wealth, and we usually have to behave the same as before. Liu Wan said.

"I know that there is not peace in all directions at the moment, there are displaced people, there are kidnappers. Master Hu, the richest man in our town, has been kidnapped before. ”

Wang Xiaodao. He comprehended quite quickly, and sure enough, it was different when he went out, and his knowledge increased.

The people of Taoyuan Village are very poor, they have never experienced such a thing, and the bandits don't even bother to go to their village.

If you go, at most grab some chickens and ducks or something, it is better to go directly to tie up a few rich meat tickets, the money is fast and trouble-free.

If Wang Xiao had stayed in Taoyuan Village and never gone out, he would not have immediately understood the meaning of Liu Wan's words.

"Huh? How come I haven't heard of this? Liu Wan said.

"I was talking to a customer who bought a barbecue when they were chatting. It was last year. Wang Xiao said.

"How much money was extorted? Did Master Hu come back safely? ”

Liu Wan has a strong heart for gossip.

Moreover, this is also an important piece of information, Ming is too rich these years, and he will indeed be targeted by kidnappers.

"It cost 800 taels of silver, and Master Hu said that he had put it back."

"What? Ransom so much money? It seems that this old man Hu is still quite rich. ”

Liu Wan hasn't seen the true face of this old man Hu yet, and I don't know if he will be richer than Tian Zhifu's family.

Tian Zhifu's family is also quite rich, which can be seen from the storefront of his mother's marriage on a whole street.

People in these years pay attention to the right family, and Tian Zhifu's mother can marry so much, which shows that the Tian family's family background is very good.

But Tian Lao's father is also quite low-key, not showing the mountain dew, if it weren't for Wang Li to go to the Xiuxian Academy, there would be no such thing as knowing Tian Zhifu, and even at the beginning of the acquaintance, he didn't feel that his family was so proud.

It seems that the concept that the Chinese people have always kept their wealth from revealing their wealth is still deep-rooted, and it is also the correct approach. Most wealthy people keep a low profile so as not to be targeted by dangerous elements.

"It's quite rich, and it's said to be in the top three in town.

I heard that when I was just kidnapped, I was sent home for extortion by cutting off a little finger.

Others are fine, Master Hu's mother was so frightened that she rolled her eyes and fainted, but she didn't expect to be sick and die without worrying about it.

Because of this, he held a funeral for his mother and delayed sending silver taels to the kidnappers, and Master Hu was tortured for more than 20 days and went home, losing 20 pounds. ”

Wang Xiao only listened to it as a story at that time, but now that he has begun to have money, he can't help but feel a sense of substitution, and the more he thinks about it, the more he has a sense of crisis.

Liu Wan said: "So you see, we can't be arrogant when we have money, we still have to keep a low profile, and we can't be too ostentatious in dressing up."

We should pay attention to proportionality when speaking, be kind and make money, and we must not be arrogant in our words, let alone offend people. ”

"Yes, mother, I can save it. In fact, I can't get used to wearing those expensive satin clothes, which are slippery, and they are not as good as our cotton clothes. ”

When cotton clothes are first worn, because rice milk will be added when washing to make the clothes crisp, it will appear hard, not very soft, and the feeling of just wearing it is not very comfortable.

As the clothes are worn for a long time, the fibers are worn out, and the clothes will become soft and collapsed, and some people especially like to wear this kind of textured cotton clothes, and Wang Xiao belongs to this kind of clothes.

Liu Wan smiled: "It's right to keep a low profile. In these years, doing business to make money is just not worrying about food and clothing, like our family, it is still a rootless duckweed, and anyone can come to take a bite.

Wait another five or seven years, we have to confess Wang Li, even if he is a showman, our family will have a little status in the future, and we can sit on an equal footing with Wu County Ling and Guan Shopkeeper, and they will be relatively stable and worry-free. ”

"Mother, I understand what you said. In the future, if the fourth brother needs anything, we will smash the pot and sell iron for him to go to school. ”

Wang Xiao understood that Liu Wan meant that the family should be kept in peace, and when their younger brother was confessed and had an official body, their family would be more secure.

Liu Wan said: "Li'er is now admitted to the Yazhai class by Dean Zheng, and it should be eight or nine to ten when she takes the show."

But his foundation is relatively poor, and it's not so simple to catch up with his classmates, although we have high hopes for him in our hearts, but don't put pressure on him in words, understand? ”

"Yes, mother. I understand. ”

Wang Xiao had a heart-to-heart talk with Liu Wan this night, and felt that he had grown a lot.

It turns out that there are so many ways to get along with people in the world, and dealing with people is really not as simple as what he encountered when he was a cowherd in Taoyuan Village.

This world is too poor to do it, and if you are hungry and cold, you will be looked down upon.

But if you are too rich, you will be targeted by bad people, and if you don't have the power of the government behind you, you will also be bullied.

Especially listening to Liu Wan say that when someone came to collect protection money today, Wang Xiao was worried and said:

"Since the opening of our barbecue restaurant, it has been quiet, and I didn't expect the new store to come out.

Unexpectedly, this group of people had a very long nose, and they came when they smelled the money. ”

"It's different, the barbecue restaurant is the territory of the shopkeeper, and it may be that the shopkeeper has said hello behind his back, and they don't dare to mess with us.

The pastry shop is our own business, and Zhifu probably doesn't understand these doorways, so they come to the door to plunder. ”

Liu Wan knew that even if they had the emperor's chastity archway and the plaque of the tiger hero, and even had two holy purposes, they couldn't save the fire from far away, and the county officials were not as good as the county management.

It is impossible for the emperor, who is far above the court, to roll up his sleeves and fight with the hooligans for them, let alone pay attention to the nuances and pay attention to what happened to them.

Even if it was the order of Wu County, it was impossible to send people to stand guard every day to protect them from being blackmailed by hooligans and ruffians.
