Chapter 87 Everyone said they heard about it

Li Xiuniang felt depressed for a while when she saw her daughter's unfazed expression.

Her good daughter, why don’t you know how to be polite?

Li Xiuniang didn't know whether to be happy or sad when she thought of Mr. Xiao's desperate efforts to miss her sister.

Shen Kun loves to be in the spotlight and said happily: "Dad, are we going to be paid again?"

This boy's pushy nature was inherited from his biological father. Shen Er also looked excited, "It's time to get angry. It's getting cold. You guys should buy some cotton clothes and prepare some food..."

At this moment, Shen Kun put away the look on his face and suddenly said: "Dad, buy more food. I heard from my master that this winter will be difficult."

Shen's face changed in a second and his expression became serious, "Is this serious?"

 “Yeah.” Shen Kun nodded affirmatively.

Shen Er immediately made up his mind, "Then buy more."

 After saying that, he asked Shen Nian, "Sister Nian, when will Mr. Xiao say that someone will come to pull tung oil?"

 “It’s okay at any time. He has agreed to let me tell him.”

  Shen Er: “…”

  …"How about tomorrow?"

Shen Nian: "Okay, I'll go find him later."

I just gave the lucky bamboo to Xiao Jinzhi.

Shen Er didn't know that his daughter had gone to Xiao's house for several meals and was still thinking about the defense between men and women. He frowned and said, "Let your second brother accompany you."

Shen Nian didn't think much and refused, "No, I'll go on horseback and come back as soon as I tell you."

 Besides, she also wanted to buy some more winter stuff.

Shen Er looked at his daughter's eyes that refused to refuse, and didn't know what he was feeling. "...Okay. Don't delay too much. Come back as soon as you say."

Shen Nian agreed immediately.

 Then ride to the county.

Just when I arrived at the door of Xiao's house, I happened to meet Liu Feng returning home.

As soon as he saw her, Liufeng smiled brightly and said, "Miss Shen is here!"

Shen Nian: "I'm looking for Xiao Jinzhi, is he there?"

 Having heard the name of his eldest son many times from Miss Shen's mouth, Liufeng was still not used to it.

 In Zhongdu, who dares to call the prince's name? Only the prince's concubine has the courage.

 “Here. I’ll take the girl in.”

Xiao Zhi was not in a good mood today. There were a lot of things going wrong in Zhongdu, the strange doctor was missing, and nothing went smoothly.

Coupled with the fact that he had not slept well all night, the prince's face was gloomy, as if covered with cold frost, and he had a fierceness that could not be concealed.

“Xiao Jinzhi.” A clear female voice came.

The coldness on Xiao Zhi's face disappeared instantly, he got up and walked towards the yard.

"You came."

Shen Nian handed over the sleeping-aiding lucky bamboo in his hand and said with a smile, "This is a gift for you to help you sleep."

 The prince took it with both hands and said it solemnly.

 “Thank you, girl.”

 After thanking you, put the things back into the house yourself.

When he came out, Shen Nian said: "The first batch of tung oil is ready. Can we send someone to pull it tomorrow?"

 Xiao Zhi was surprised, "Okay. Why are you in such a hurry?"

“My second brother’s master said that this winter will be difficult, and my father wants to pay wages to the villagers as soon as possible so that they can buy more food and cotton-padded clothes…”

When the prince heard this, his hand holding the teacup suddenly froze, and he was surprised.

 This winter is indeed difficult, but...

“Your second brother’s master? Why haven’t I heard you say that?” he asked with a smile.

Shen Nian curled his lips, "What's there to say? My second brother's master is mysterious and I've never seen him before. But I heard he is a very powerful person." "What kind of powerful method?"

"How do I know this? I just heard about it."

  Xiao Zhi: “…”

 After talking about business, Shen Nian said goodbye and went home.

-

 The next day.

 Zhuxi Village.

A well-dressed young man came to the tung oil workshop.

This man has a handsome appearance and a sense of righteousness in his eyebrows, which makes people feel trustful when they see him.

“My name is Shen Ce, Mr. Xiao asked me to come here.”

Hearing that it was the noble man, Shen Er greeted him enthusiastically, "Master Shen, please come in. The oil is all inside."

Shen Ce nodded with a smile and followed him in nicely.

Seeing the golden and clear tung oil, his eyes flashed, and countless ways came to his mind to push this thing to every corner of Da Viet.

This thing is extraordinary! This was his first thought.

 No wonder the prince would come to Suizhou, which is so poor that even dogs don’t come here. It turns out that there are great business opportunities here. The prince is indeed a talented person, which is really admirable... This was his second thought.

“The stuff is pretty good, how many do you have here?” Shen Ce asked.

The family has started a business, and life has improved a lot. Shen Er has become much more generous, and he is no longer afraid to talk to people who seem to have extraordinary bearings.

He said confidently: "This is just the beginning. It's only more than 400 kilograms. The amount will gradually increase after that."

Shen Ce didn't expect it to be so small, so he said: "Seize the time and do more, make a lot of money before the New Year, and let everyone have a good New Year."

These words just hit Shen Er's heart.

He immediately responded: "Yes, yes."

Seeing that both parties had reached a consensus, Shen Ce asked his servants to give Shen Er the wooden box full of silver, and took Tong You away decisively.

As soon as the others left, Shen Er took the box home.

 When I got home and opened it, I was almost dazzled by the money in the box.

 “Get rich! Oh **** ho ho…”

Let out a weird laugh with joy.

Li Xiuniang thought it was scary, so she patted him and said, "Okay, you're not afraid of children's jokes when you smile like this. It's too unsteady."

"Madam, when you talk about me, keep your eyes closed. Your eyeballs are almost stuck to the money..." Shen Er joked back.

Shen Kun picked up a broken piece of silver, took a bite, looked at the tooth mark on it, and said with a smile: "You can really make a mark with your bite!"

When he was a child, he went to the county and saw someone chewing silver. He thought that he would find a chance to take a bite in the future to see what it tasted like.

Shen Qian was so moved that he felt it was too embarrassing for the whole family to be like this, so he endured it.

“Sister, does all this money belong to our family?” Man Geer took Shen Nian’s hand and asked with bright eyes.

"Not entirely, but most of them." Shen Nian pinched his brother's face.

 Brother Man covered his mouth and laughed, not knowing what he was laughing at.

 Shen Ce is a thorough man, and his box contains both silver and copper plates.

With money, Shen Eryi raised his hand and said, "Brother Kun, go call someone and pay for your wages!"

 Shen Kun went to call someone in Fengfenghuohuo.

 With less than a cup of tea, the villagers of Zhuxi Village gathered at the entrance of the tung oil workshop, and the whole village mobilized on a large scale.

Even those who had not entered the workshop came to join in the fun.

“I heard that wages are going to be paid. I have only been working for half a month and I don’t know how much I will be paid...”

“You can make money no matter how much you pay. In the past, the only way to make money was to build bridges and dams. The work was tiring and dangerous. We are really lucky to be able to join this workshop.”

"No! I have to thank the daughter of the second Shen family. If she hadn't been able to take the noble son into the mountains to find medicinal materials, no one would have looked at our village so highly. She was building roads and workshops. Sister Nian is a great benefactor to our village."
