Poisonous Peasant 'Concubine'

People who are used to work, no matter how good their life is, they can’t be free. After lunch, Ling Chenglong started to work on his carpentry work again. Occasionally, when Lao Song and Ling Jingpeng were free, they would Help me out, but today Ling Jingxuan specially left Ling Jingpeng behind, and stopped Ling Jinghan who was about to go to the gazebo to read, and took them and Zhao Han and his wife to his room.

The house imitates the modern three-bedroom style, with its own living room and bathroom facilities. One of Ling Jingxuan's rooms is used as a bedroom, one has been opened up as a studio, and the other is temporarily unused. The solid wood chairs specially made by carpenters are available in every room, and there is also a specially made coffee table outside. If you don’t look at other things, just look at the living room furnishings, it’s a bit like a modern Chinese decoration style, although it’s a bit simple Son.

"The main reason I called you here is to tell you about our jam business. This month, Xinyuanlai pulled out three jams, one of which was all in small cans, a total of 300 cans, and the remaining two were big jars. They are packed in sixty jars, a total of six thousand jin. The small jars of jam cost one tael of silver per can, and the large jars cost one tael of silver per catty. The total is 300 taels of silver, of which I want to deduct the fraction of 7000 taels separately It will be used to pay for Lao Wang to burn the jars, etc. This money and future account book management will be handed over to Jinghan. As for the remaining 7000 taels, I will divide it into ten shares in total, and Sheng Rui and I will take four shares. , Brother Zhao, Brother Han and Jingpeng Jinghan each have two shares, if you have no objections, let's split the [-] for two."

Taking out the ledgers that he had prepared long ago, Ling Jingxuan looked at them and said calmly, his brother settled the accounts clearly, the reason why he didn't pay any money before was because the money was not much, he didn't expect the business to be so good at first, but now he is gradually on the track Now, he won't lose his brother, everyone earns money together, and everyone lives a good life together.

"Then how do you do it? You brought in the business by yourself, and you figured out the method of making jam by yourself. We are just helping you. How can we get so much money? No, Jingxuan is definitely not okay. , we have already owed you enough favors, and we can no longer take your money."

Han Fei refused without even thinking about it. Even if it was only 400%, there would be 500 taels of silver. If he held it in his hand, he wouldn't be scared to death?He still can't digest the [-] taels he earned today.

"Xiao Fei is right, you have made us earn enough money, we can't share any more money from you."

It's rare that even Zhao Dalong, who has always been silent, expressed his opinion, and Ling Jingpeng on the other side also frowned and said unhappily: "Brother, it's better for you to keep the money. We brothers work together to live a better life. As for the money, what does it matter whether you divide it or not?"

"This time I agree with Jingpeng, brother, we are a family, brothers, there is no need to calculate so clearly, and, Jingpeng and the others have helped you, I can only read books when I have nothing to do, how can I divide it into [-]% money?"

Similarly, Ling Jinghan didn't agree with his decision. Except for Yan Shengrui who didn't make a statement, everyone at the scene opposed it. Ling Jingxuan shook his head helplessly, and decided to settle them one by one. It must start with Zhao Han and his wife.

"Brother Zhao, Brother Han, I know that you are sincere and don't want to take money that doesn't belong to you, but you all have a share of the money. If you didn't help pick wild fruits, how could I make so much money? He told me to make as many small jars of jam as possible within seven days. This batch of jam was brought to the capital by the big boss behind the Xinyuan restaurant. When the market in the capital opens up in the future, we can earn more than just These are several thousand taels of silver. If you guys are messing with me now, how will our accounts be settled in the future? In the end, I didn’t take advantage of you. First of all, I didn’t plan to share the money from selling wine, because I brew You only started to help me after the wine was good, and then, Sheng Rui and I accounted for [-]%, twice as much as you, so, do you still think that this money should not be asked?"

He said that he would never treat them badly, not just the jam business, but if they are willing to work together on the projects he does in the future, he will also give them according to this standard. Money, one person can’t make it all, It's rare that they all treat him sincerely, and he will give corresponding returns.

"But, after all, this is your business, and we have taken too much. Otherwise, we can do it with one?"

Han Fei looked helplessly at Zhao Dalong, who also had no idea, then turned to look at him and asked tentatively, 700% was 200 taels of silver, plus the money from selling the screwdrivers earlier, they made a fortune for nothing today [-] taels is too much, they didn't even dare to think about it before today.

"Hehe... What's the difference between [-]% and [-]%? Brother Han, you may have forgotten something. Do you still remember what I said when I took my child to the market for the first time? Our jam business only reaches [-]% At the end of the month, and at the beginning of September, I will go to the county seat to find the county magistrate to buy that semi-salt land. I can buy as much as I can, and then I will hire someone to cultivate it before the seawater floods it. If you believe me, don’t refuse. Buy land with me, and I promise you will make more money than this time next year."

He told Ling Jingpeng about this several times, but even Yan Shengrui didn't know it. It's mid-July now, and by the beginning of September, he can still earn at least a few thousand taels of silver, so he plans to spend the money he earned from selling wine today. All 4 taels will be used to buy land. The exact amount per mu will depend on what the county magistrate has to say.

"Can you really grow something on that?"

At first they thought he was just talking casually, didn't they expect? ?Seeing his confident appearance, Han Fei couldn't help but be moved. They are farmers, how can they leave the land?In the past, it was fine if he didn’t have the money to buy land. If he could really grow something on half-salt land, he would be willing to spend all his money on land. Who wouldn’t want to make more money and let others look at it high?He really had enough of the days when he was despised and abused everywhere. If possible, he hoped to create a better future for Tie Wazi.

"Well, I'm 90.00% sure. The remaining [-]% is up to God to save face. For us, this is undoubtedly a huge gamble. If we lose, all our savings will be lost." Clean and clean, on the contrary, if we win, I dare say that within three years, we will have a place in Cangzhou, and even the whole of Daqing, how about it, Big Brother Zhao and Big Brother Han, do you want to gamble with me?"

Ambition is the foundation of human progress. If Ling Jingxuan was the only one, maybe he would be content with the status quo and maintain this kind of life that can barely be lived with a small amount of money. But he still has Xiao Baozi, his parents and brothers, and a man of noble status. There are many places where money will be used in the future. He must make money as much as possible. As long as he controls a certain amount of wealth, he will have a certain right to speak no matter where he goes in the future.

Everyone present, including Yan Shengrui, couldn't help looking at him in surprise. They never knew that his ambitions were so big. Now they don't even have a place in Cangzhou, even this small Lingjia Village Where did he have the confidence to say that he would gain a firm foothold in the Qing Dynasty within three years?

It would be a lie to say that there is no doubt at all, but even Zhao Dalong and Han Fei, who have become fathers, are only in their twenties, and they have not yet graduated from a modern university. What was lacking was blood, so even if they couldn't believe what he said, they still couldn't help their blood boil, as if the sleeping beast in their hearts suddenly woke up.

"Okay, we will accept the money, Jingxuan, I believe in you, as long as you don't dislike it, no matter what you do, it will be counted as our share."

Han Fei and Zhao Dalong looked at each other, nodded to each other in unison, and finally made a decision.

"Brother, I want too."

Ling Jingpeng, who was not willing to be lonely, expressed his position in a hurry, while Ling Jinghan leaned back on the chair with his eyes slightly squinted and said slowly: "I won't join in the fun with you, I will help you with the bills, and even if I go to high school in the future, I will also teach water. Sheng's doing it will never let you have any worries, so you can do it freely."

Support is also very important. Ling Jinghan's goal was very clear from the beginning, to get fame. Only when he is in high school can their family not be underestimated and belittled, and they can really hold their heads high.

"Well, let's split the money then."

Nodding, Ling Jingxuan got up and went to the studio to take out a stack of bank notes, and gave them 400 taels each, even Yan Shengrui had it, but it was only 100 taels, which was for him.

"Jinghan Jingpeng, it's best not to tell your parents about how much money we have made, just give them pocket money once in a while, don't give all the money to them."

After dividing the money, Ling Jingxuan suddenly said to the two younger brothers, Ling Chenglong is soft-hearted and has no opinion, Ling Wang's family is also careless, and now they are considered a big family in Lingjia Village. If people stick to them shamelessly, they will surely soften their hearts. Although they will not return to the Ling family, it is very possible to help them. He will be willing to pay more money to those who are kind to them, even if the other party does not tell them. Yes, but for those members of the Ling family, he couldn't bear a penny.

"Well, we know." The two brothers were not stupid, as soon as he said it, they knew what he was worried about, and they nodded at the same time.

"By the way, Brother Han, if you don't mind the trouble, why don't you ask Liu Baoren to buy more homesteads and circle them like ours. You can repair the house or rebuild it if you want, or forget it if you don't want to. The most important thing is the land. The homestead grows food. It’s unlikely, but it’s more than enough to plant fruit trees, so we won’t have to venture into the mountains next year.”

Now his front yard is full of grapes, and under the water of Crescent Spring, all of them have survived. In the future, he plans to slowly transplant raspberries, pear trees, mulberries and other fruit trees from the mountains around and in the backyard. Irrigated with crescent spring water, maybe it will bear fruit in the coming year.

"Hey, I'm still thinking about it, but aren't we going to start making jam again tomorrow? I want to wait until we're done with this job."

To be honest, he has long been longing for Ling Jingxuan's home, but at present he only intends to buy land and enclose it, and he wants to delay the matter of building a house for a while, at least wait until half of the salt land is bought back.

"Hehe... It seems that Big Brother Han is also a man of his own mind, Big Brother Zhao, you can marry a good wife!"

After finishing their official business, Ling Jingxuan couldn't help but joked about them. Zhao Dalong was a man of few words, and couldn't help but reddened his ears when he heard the words. The couple all made him make a big face. The three brothers Ling Jingxuan, plus Yan Shengrui They laughed lightly one after another, who said it's shameful for a man to marry a man?If life is happy, what difference does it make if you marry a man or a woman?
