Lu Quan took the man in charge of the wild wharf to see the land, and Qiu was surrounded by several women, describing the farmland he saw over and over again.

Originally, the little carp and the little fish were still happy to listen, but when everyone asked more times, they were impatient to listen, so they simply went to the eel cage under the pergola.

In the shade of the stern of the Lu family, Xiaoqing poured a bowl of hot water, thought about it, and twisted some brown sugar and put it in it.

This brown sugar was given by Aunt Ding last time, and it looks like a small half catty.

Qiu was reluctant to eat it, so he gave the brown sugar to Xiaoqing, so that their sisters and brothers could be sweet on weekdays.

"Little four drink water."

Lu Yangge took the bowl and drank it in one gulp: "Thank you, eldest sister, it's so sweet." ”

Xiaoqing took the bowl with a smile, half-squatted down, and looked sideways at Lu Xiaosi taking a charcoal pen to write and draw on the board.

After more than two months of practice, as long as Lu Xiaoqing is not in a hurry, he will no longer speak like the little stutter he used to be, and he will be much more generous than before.

Because life is better than in the past, I eat enough, raise some meat, and I don't have to run around for life, the whole person is a lot whiter, with a graceful figure, and a girl's softness.

It's no longer that yellow, thin, dry, and shy little girl.

"What are you drawing?" Lu Xiaoqing looked at the messy lines drawn by Lu Yang's singer, and didn't understand it for a long time.

"I'm calculating interest."

Lu Yangge threw aside the charcoal in his hand and reached into the bucket to wash his hands.

Without pen and paper, she could only write and draw on the board of the boat, and then rinse it off, which was troublesome but very cost-effective.

Interest?

Lu Xiaoqing didn't understand, but Xiao Si often said some strange things, and she was used to it and didn't ask much.

Lu Yangge washed his hands, sat cross-legged opposite Lu Xiaoqing and asked, "Sister, do you want to make money?" ”

"Making money?"

There was a slight silence in Lu Xiaoqing's eyes, "Shopkeeper Li will return to Yangzhou in a few days, and the eel cage business will also stop, where can I make money?" ”

She loved the two months of life, and the whole wild pier was a scene of life.

Everyone was busy chopping bamboo, cutting bamboo slivers, and weaving eel cages, and then loading them on ships and transporting them away one by one.

As the ship left, everyone was divided into white silver and strings of copper coins.

And now, I heard that the Red Silk Army is coming, and Fushun is closed, and Shopkeeper Li is going back to Yangzhou, and he doesn't even do the eel cage business.

The long embankment, those pergolas are still there, but the people under the pergolas have lost their vivid eyebrows and eyes.

"The eel cage business can't last long, so we just have a head start."

Lu Yangge approached Lu Xiaoqing's side and said in a low voice: "Eldest sister, do you want to do a business that can last longer." ”

At least I can do it for a year or two, and then I can earn money.

Lu Xiaoqing laughed: "I think, it's like the eel cage business is very good." ”

At least, you can see money every day, and if you make an eel cage, you will know how many copper coins you earn, how good.

Lu Yangge knew that the eldest sister was not as ambitious as the second sister, and unlike Xiaoyu, who trusted her unconditionally, he asked bluntly: "You just said that you want to make money." ”

This time, Lu Xiaoqing replied without hesitation: "Yes." ”

Who doesn't want to make money, how good it is to have money, if you have money, you don't have to starve, you don't have to drink hot water to fill your stomach.

"Then you go and call the second sister and Xiaoyu, and we will earn money together." Lu Yangge poured the water from the wooden bucket on the plank, washing away the numbers he had just drawn with charcoal.

Soon, Lu Xiaoqing walked to the stern of the boat with the little carp and the little fish.

Lu Xiaoyu ran at the front, looking at Lu Yangge with sparkling eyes, and when he arrived at Lu Yangge's side, he immediately squatted down and asked eagerly: "Little Si, are you looking for me?" ”

Behind her, Lu Xiaoli was still holding a handful of bamboo strips in her hand, the eel cage business was not done, and everyone else let go, but she insisted on using up the remaining bamboo strips.

"Little Four, what's the matter with you, don't delay me in weaving an eel cage."

Although no one bought the eel cage, she made it up to take it to the fish. When the time comes, take it to the dock and sell it, and one more article is better.

Lu Xiaoqing lightly pulled Lu Xiaoli and motioned her to squat down: "Xiaosi said, let's make money together." ”

"Earn money?" Lu Xiaoyu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and even his voice was much clearer, "Little Four, do you want to take us to earn money?" ”

Seeing Xiao Si smiling and nodding, Lu Xiaoli threw the eel cage in his hand aside, and couldn't wait to squat down in front of Lu Yangge: "Little Si, do you have a new idea again?" ”

Lu Xiaoyu opened his mouth slightly, and squatted down slowly beside his sisters for a long time, looking at the eldest sister, and then at the second sister, and finally his eyes fell on Lu Yangge slowly.

Lu Yangge's small face rose and nodded: "Well, let's take out everyone's private money and see how much capital there is." ”

"I have two hundred and eighty-six texts," Lu Xiaoyu reported his private money without hesitation: "Where is my mother, I'll ask my mother now." ”

Lu Yangge grabbed Lu Xiaoyu, who was about to get up: "Don't worry, let's see how many eldest sisters and second sisters there are." ”

"I have more than two taels of silver."

How much silver Lu Xiaoqing has, in fact, he counts it every day. However, he was afraid that he would make a mistake, so Lu Xiaoqing still turned around and entered the cabin, took out a coarse cloth bag containing money, and poured out all the copper coins and silver horns inside: "I have two taels of silver ingots, which my father exchanged for me, and thirty-one copper coins." ”

Everyone's eyes fell on Lu Xiaoli, she took a deep breath, her face flushed, and it took a long time to take out the money bag from her arms: "I have two taels of silver, plus twenty-two copper plates." ”

Lu Xiaoyu is young, and he can't weave eel cages, so he can only help cut bamboo slivers, and his little hands have cut countless openings, and it is not easy to save more than 200 yuan. And Lu Xiaoqing and Lu Xiaoli's money was all earned by them weaving eel cages and selling them.

The reason why there are more small carp than Xiaoqing is because the little carp is bold, and secretly went to Dongtan to get the eel cage twice and sold the long fish.

Later, because Qiu was not at ease and watched closely, she didn't get out.

However, even so, she is the richest of the sisters.

"Then two by two, and the four of us will make a deal."

Hearing Lu Xiaosi say this, Xiaoyu was anxious: "I, I don't have two taels." ”

Lu Yangge took out his money bag: "I'll borrow you, and I'll pay it back when I earn it later." ”

"Hey."

Lu Xiaoyu responded loudly and promised Lu Xiaosi, "When the time comes, I will give you a profit." ”

Aunt Ding and Shopkeeper Li can share profits with the family, and she can too.

"Okay."

Lu Yangge also said simply, "Then let's do it first, I want to think about what we can do with eight taels of silver." ”

The three sisters gathered all the money in front of Lu Yangge and looked at her expectantly.

Lu Xiaoli asked Ai Ai during the period: "Little Four, do you really have a way to make money?" ”

"Hmm."

Lu Yangge swept the silver money in his hand, "As long as you believe me, I guarantee that you can make a lot of money by following me." ”

Lu Xiaoqing and Lu Xiaoyu's eyes were full of anticipation, but only Lu Xiaoli couldn't hold back and turned his head.

Xiaosi will indeed make money, but she is more capable of bragging!
