A poor hero

Chapter 10 Chen Chen trapped by money

But Chen Chen has traveled through time after all, and he still has great hope of making his first pot of gold here as soon as possible.

So he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists and said, "Thank you, third aunt, I will work hard to make money. I want to buy Shen Qian, and I must let Shen Qian live a good life."

"Okay, Dachen, just relax." Seeing Chen Chen getting serious, the third aunt laughed, "Your third uncle has saved three taels of silver for you to use for your marriage. It will be waiting for your third uncle in early May. When he goes home, let him talk to Shen Qian's father about this matter and buy Shen Qian. I still like this little girl."

"Third aunt, three taels of silver? Where did I save three taels of silver? Did you remember it wrong?"

Chen Chen was confused at this time and couldn't remember it after all.

The original owner worked for Master Xu and had no money, so he never gave any money to his third uncle and his third aunt.

Although the third aunt's family is very kind to me, they don't help me save my wife's book!

"Didn't my uncle and aunt plow your family's fields these years? These three taels of silver are discounted from the harvest of your family's fields over the years."

The third aunt explained.

Although Chen Chen has never plowed the fields, the harvest in the fields can still be calculated.

Although the land in Xu County is fertile, the amount of rice produced per acre was only four to five hundred kilograms per acre in the Ming Dynasty, when there were no chemical fertilizers.

Two acres of land plus two crops equals more than 2000 kilograms of rice.

What's more, this field has to pay taxes every year, so there won't be much left.

Even if the combined harvest of these two acres of land lasted three years, they would not be able to save even one tael of silver, let alone three taels of silver.

"Third Aunt, I know you are kind-hearted, but I will find a way to get the money myself. Three taels of silver is a huge sum of money. Leave it to Maverick to educate himself!"

Chen Chen knew that the current situation of the third aunt's family would definitely not be very good.

If it goes well, Third Uncle won't have to go out to work.

In addition, Brother Daniu has also married a wife and will have a child later.

The calves have reached the age of enlightenment.

All this adds up to a lot of money.

So Chen Chen directly rejected the third aunt, saying that he could solve the money problem.

"Chen Chen, you kid, Mavericks can be enlightened later, there is no rush now."

"But Shen Qian's matter can't be delayed for long. Shen Qian's father may come to visit again at any time."

What the third aunt said was reasonable, but the calf was already over nine years old, and it was already a bit late for enlightenment.

This made Chen Chen very worried. In this world, it is really difficult to move forward without money.

"Third Aunt, anyway, Third Uncle didn't come back until the beginning of May." Chen Chen thought for a while and said, "I'll just see if I can make money this month. If I don't make any money then, I can borrow from you."

"Well, that's fine. I'll prepare the money first, but I don't know how greedy Shen Qian's father is and how much money he wants."

At this time, Wu Hong's sister-in-law also came here and saw the two people discussing.

"Dachen, what happened to Shen Qian? It's all my fault."

As soon as Wu Hong arrived, she started to blame herself.

After giving directions to Shen Qian's father, she went to work in the fields and did not see Shen Qian's father making any noise.

As soon as she came back from work and heard what happened, she immediately came over to see how Shen Qian was doing.

"Sister-in-law Wu Hong, you're here. Shen Qian was tired from crying and fell asleep now." Chen Chen gritted his teeth and said angrily, "It's not your fault. Who knew there would be such a father."

"Okay, brother Sheng's family, you don't have to blame yourself. This is none of your business. It's just pity for the child Shen Qian."

The third aunt also opened her eyes to Wu Hong.

"Third Aunt, I heard that Shen Qian's father was yelling at the police to leave. I'm afraid he will come and take Shen Qian away. What should I do?" Wu Hong asked anxiously, "Third Aunt, what can you do? Duo, is there any way to keep this Shen Qian? I really like her as a child and don’t want her to leave."

"That's not true, but Shen Qian's father will still forcefully take Shen Qian away." The third aunt analyzed Wu Hong one by one, "I also told Chen Chen just now that Shen Qian's father just wants to It’s just money, we can just give it to him when the time comes.”

"Yes, Sister-in-law Wu Hong, so I have to make good money now."

Chen Chen also replied with a wry smile.

"How much money do you have now, Dachen? If it's not enough, I still have a handful of silver here. You can come and get it from me then." Wu Hong asked with concern.

Chen Chen didn't have a penny at this moment. It was really hard for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.

The money Shen Qian's father wants will definitely not be small.

Chen Chen silently prayed in his heart that Shen Qian's father would not come so soon.

"Sister-in-law Wu Hong, thank you. I will come back to you if necessary. My third aunt and I have planned to help me go to Shen Qian's house to talk to me when my third uncle comes home from vacation in early May."

Chen Chen was no longer polite at this time. After all, it was better to have money ready than not at all.

"That's good. If you need anything, come to me. Third uncle will go talk to me and invite my boss to join us."

After the matter was settled, Wu Hong hurried home to work.

Chen Chen wanted to give Wu Hong four wild eggs, but Wu Hong refused to accept them.

Finally, it was the third aunt who persuaded me to take away the two wild eggs.

"Dachen, your sister-in-law Wu Hong is a person who values ​​friendship. Your brother Sheng will make a lot of money by marrying this wife."

The third aunt looked at Wu Hong's leaving figure and said to Chen Chen.

"Well, my brother Sheng saved a little, but I got a good wife."

Chen Chen silently gave Wu Hong a good person card in his heart.

This is the fourth person who has been kind to me through time.

The first one is Shen Qian, the second one is Zhi Yu who speaks for herself, the third one is Third Aunt, and the fourth one is Sister-in-law Wu Hong.

Chen Chen secretly vowed that one day, when he becomes rich, he will repay these people well.

"Isn't it? By the way, Dachen, you have gained so much on the first day you went up the mountain. You are almost as good as your father." The third aunt said with a smile.

Chen Chen thought to himself that this was nothing, it was just bad luck.

However, when he went up the mountain for the first time, he discovered that there were many animals in the forest. As long as he was capable, it would be easy to make money by hunting.

"Third Aunt, please stop laughing at me, I still have to practice."

"It's okay, take your time. You have had this talent since you were a child, but you may have forgotten it now."

The original owner Chen Chen indeed had great talent for archery.

Maybe the shadow left by his parents was too great, so this ability was hidden.

"Third Aunt, does anyone want these pheasants, pheasant eggs and other wild animals?" Chen Chen asked, pointing to the pheasants and pheasant eggs.

"People in the village can't afford to eat, so they have to go to restaurants in the town or county. In the past, your father often used to take prey to the county restaurant in exchange for money." The third aunt replied, "Now your third uncle works in the county restaurant. , when you catch prey, you can take it directly there and sell it.”

Chen Chen's father originally made a living by hunting.

After the prey that is usually hunted is distributed to familiar people, it will be sold in restaurants in the county.

Of course, there are people in town who want it, but the price is much less than in the county.

Chen Chen felt relieved when he knew that this wild animal could make a lot of money to support a large family. His original plan was to start with hunting.

Because other small businesses require capital, only capital-free businesses such as collecting herbs in the mountains or hunting are suitable for him.

However, he didn't know many medicinal materials, so he couldn't collect them.

Fortunately, before he traveled through time, he had seen various videos of Mr. Bei and Mr. De surviving in the wilderness on TV.

I also learned some trapping skills and methods from these videos. There are so many animals here now, and there is no problem in surviving in a short period of time.

"Okay, Third Aunt." Chen Chen smiled happily, "I've laid a few traps, and I'll go check them out tomorrow. If I catch the prey then, I'll take it to Third Uncle's restaurant to sell it."

"Well, okay, then please pay attention to safety and don't go too deep. When you go up the mountain, I will take Shen Qian to work. Go in and take care of Shen Qian. She is scared today."

The third aunt will go back after finishing speaking.

Chen Chen hurriedly picked up the pheasant and stuffed it to his third aunt, but she refused to take it no matter what, and asked him to stay and help Shen Qian recuperate.

In the end, Chen Chen had no choice but to stuff two wild eggs into the third aunt before letting her leave.

When he saw his third aunt entering her room, Chen Chen also walked into Shen Qian's room.

The little guy Shen Qian actually had a nightmare.

She kept mumbling: "No, I don't want to go back..."
