Throughout the autumn, Ayu was busy in the rice fields everywhere, sometimes with Xiaobao, sometimes with his uncle, and even those farmers’ children who watched them catch loaches were curious and came to ask for it, but Ayu didn’t know anything about it. He told them without hesitation that this food is edible, although the muddy smell is a bit strong, but the stewed soup is very nourishing for the body after washing, and for a while, the eyes of the children of this generation will turn green.

Although Xiao Bao complained a little that Ayu shared the money he earned with others, but he couldn't bear to see those children who were so emaciated, naked, and starved of food, so he acquiesced to Ayu. He even discussed with Ayu and publicly collected these loaches. After receiving them, they sold them to various brothels, restaurants, and even some big mansions.

After tasting the first soup in Lichunyuan and making soup with loach and eel, many rich people in Yangzhou realized the efficacy of these two things for nourishing the body, and it became popular for a while. The mother of Lichunyuan relied on this to make Fangzi got a lot of benefits, not only the money, but also the reputation. Lichunyuan is now in Yangzhou, and it can be regarded as a brothel with a reputation for delicious food, which is much higher.So the rewards for Ayu and Xiaobao were also very generous, and they were given two taels of silver for each of them at once. Although it was not comparable to the money that mother sold the prescription for, it was still a huge sum of money for the two children. payment.

Xiaobao has a quick mind, and continued to develop from here. He has quite a lot of friends and is well-informed. At the beginning of this trend, he made an agreement with many people that he can provide the loach and other ingredients, and he knows how to Share the benefits with the manager in charge of purchasing, save other people from knowing the benefits of this ingredient, rob their jobs, and use this method to earn a fortune with Ayu.

Now that children from these poor families join in, although they don’t make as much money as they did by themselves, the amount has increased. It’s just a change of hands, and they can make profits. At the same time, they can be delivered to various families every day, without having to divide them into several pieces as before. Approval, after several calculations, the earning is not worse than before, and Xiaobao doesn't feel that he is at a disadvantage.

And Ayu is well aware of Xiaobao's calculations, this is Wei Xiaobao's nature, how can he not know!Anyway, he won't be at a disadvantage!He had planned it long ago, even if he wanted to be a good person, he would have to take care of his own stomach first, right?But looking at those children who were able to make a living and eat more food because of catching loach, Ayu was still very happy in his heart. He only felt that he seemed to have a noble character of benefiting others this time.Perhaps, this year, many children from other families will have a good year.

As winter approached, many farmers outside the city began to plant winter wheat, and the number of loaches gradually decreased, and the rich and noble families who ate loach became a little tired, and the trend of catching loaches gradually slowed down. , and at this time Ayu came down quickly, and carefully counted the money around him. Looking at the broken silver poured out of the small jar, Ayu couldn't help laughing. How long has it been, and there are already 12 taels? The money is gone, this is too fast, if you calculate this way, you can buy this mule or something at this time!

Thinking of the mule cart, Ayu immediately couldn't sit still, grabbed the silver in his hand, and walked out. It happened that the uncle of the Qin family came back pushing the cart, and Ayu hurried a few steps to help put the cart in place, unloaded the dung bucket, and took the cart with him. With a smile on his face, he said to the uncle:

"Uncle, look, with so much money, we can sell mule carts, and in the future, you will be able to drive the carts to work."

Ayu raised his face, his eyes were shining, Uncle Qin looked at the silver in his hand, and was a little dumbfounded. He knew what his child was busy with recently, and knew that it sold for a lot of money, but he didn't know whether it was money or not. It's so much less, he thought he could have two meals for the family, this is all the child has achieved these days, and he doesn't want to save so much.

"Ayu, this, this, this loach has sold so much?"

The uncle of the Qin family asked. He had never seen so much silver in his life. In his life, poor peasants, even when he was a tenant in his hometown, at most he only saw two or three taels. When more than ten taels of silver pass by?

Seeing his uncle like this, Ayu also understood that he couldn't believe it, so he simply started to pay the bill:

"The first two taels here were rewarded by the mother of Lichunyuan. She said that I gave her a good idea. With a new recipe, four taels are money for selling fish. We sell at least two big fish every day. Another five liang is the silver of the loach. In fact, there are other things, such as those baskets made of bamboo, baskets, small objects and so on are also sold a lot, but those are basically rice, and mushrooms Bamboo shoots, bird eggs, taro, lotus root, and these can get money. Isn’t there so much after accumulating so much! Uncle, let’s go buy a car. From tomorrow, you will drive the car to work. At least four barrels can be placed on it, and the original day's work can be done in one morning, and it can be finished in one or two trips, saving energy. In the afternoon, we will also drive at the gate of the city, and we can get some fares. It's getting better!"

What Ayu said was very exciting, and the uncle of the Qin family was also very happy to hear that, the family will have livestock, what a happy event for a poor family!This is a sign of prosperity in the family business!How could he not be happy!

However, the uncle of the Qin family thought about it, looked at the thatched shed-like house at home, made some calculations in his heart, and said to Ayu:

"It's going to be winter soon. Our house can't stand the wind and snow. If we have animals, we won't be able to go to the Earth Temple to borrow them. Or we should just build the house first and buy the animals later."

What the uncle said is also very reasonable. Wouldn't it be enviable to drive animals to live in the Earth Temple?This is not a good thing, but Ayu has his own way.

"Uncle, no need, let's buy a mule first. I've inquired about it. The mule and cart only cost ten taels, and there are 12 taels here! After we buy the mules, we'll build a house. We don't want to build a brick house. Well, just get an earthen embryo house, and set it up around our original mud, grass and bamboo mats. It’s very easy. Uncle Qian’s family next door has quite a few, Da Zhuang and they are the three brothers. Let's ask them to help with the work, even if they eat two meals, each person only needs five yuan a day, and it can be done in five or six days. Our house is connected to a yard with an earthen wall. There are still two taels left, borrow two taels from Xiaobao, we will do enough."

Ayu calculated very carefully with her fingers, and the uncle of the Qin family nodded again and again, no, the thatched shed of our house does not look very good, but it is also being repaired this year, and the shelves are all good. Good coarse moso bamboo is strong!It doesn’t cost any wood, it’s just to make some earthen bricks. It’s really not expensive, and the manpower is also convenient. The next door is full of poor men who have strength and no money. They give two meals and five cents a day. There are indeed some people. Do it, as for borrowing money from Xiaobao?This uncle of the Qin family has no objection. If his nephew can have these savings, I am afraid that the dead child has a lot of money. Not to mention paying back the money, with their ability to sell fish, it is estimated that they will be able to pay it off after a year.

Thinking of this, the uncle of the Qin family also grinned happily.How long has it been!From the beginning of the spring when he was sick and made his family borrow rice to live, to now he is repairing houses and buying mules and carts. The changes have been too fast. Thinking about the experience of the past half a year, Uncle Qin can't help but sigh with emotion. He has really grown up, not the honest kid who only knows how to follow behind and can't get along, and now he can help himself support a family.

Ayu and Xiaobao borrowed money, but Xiaobao didn't ask any questions because of Xiaobao's loyal temperament, and took out five taels of silver from his body and threw it at Ayu.

"Take it, it's not enough to tell me."

The grandeur, the free and easy, Ayu knew at a glance that this child was imitating the salt merchants in the brothel, and felt a little funny in his heart,

"You! How much money do you usually have? Why are you so generous this time? Didn't you say that you gave it to your mother? I thought you were going to get it from your mother! I am going to go with you. So I can explain the reason to your mother, but unexpectedly, I underestimated you, but this is a bit wrong! Could it be where did you get it from again? Gambling shop? Or did you please your godfather?"

When talking to Xiaobao, Ayu also likes to be straightforward. Some words that are obviously slightly sarcastic are very normal for Xiaobao, and he will not feel embarrassed. There is nothing he can do. The most cunning place in the world, It's nothing more than palaces and brothels. Xiaobao grew up in that environment, and his concept of right and wrong is different from ordinary people. It's okay to be realistic, it just depends on the result.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Xiao Bao didn't feel any displeasure, instead he said in a slightly embarrassing way:

"Yesterday, a merchant from Anhui came to find my mother. I happened to pass by. Hearing that I was my mother's son, he asked me to kowtow and call godfather for a tael of silver. If there was such a good thing, I immediately knelt down. He kowtowed ten times and almost scared him to death, haha, although there was a discount and I didn’t give ten taels, but I got five taels anyway, do you think it’s a windfall?”

Speechless, Ayu is really speechless, this little rascal, I guess he was just joking at the time, just for fun, and didn't want this little bastard to hit a snake with a stick and make him unable to get down, that's why he got such a benefit.However, this child is definitely familiar with such things, without the slightest bit of embarrassment, and is very happy, strange person!

The money is in hand, but what should be said is still to be said. Ayu told about their family planning to buy a mule cart and build an adobe-brick house. Xiaobao nodded hurriedly after hearing this,

"It should have been done a long time ago. I didn't say it. Your house is too bad. You can live in it, but the soil is not good enough. Why don't you just build a brick and tile house? Doriso!"

"It's easy to say, how much money would it cost? Say less than 30 taels, can I have this silver? Besides, if I have the silver to build a brick and tile house, I won't buy ready-made ones? Now, in this remote yard outside, It's only 50 taels. It's still in the tight city! Don't you know how humid the land is, and the land is even less valuable. Such a large courtyard is used as a homestead, and there is no one around. It was bought as a wasteland. It is too ugly to build a brick and tile house in such a place. Earth bricks are good, just like this, probably in my house It’s also unique.”

There are a lot of people who dislike excrement, it is better to live farther away, and live in the city, so there are too many things to say!Besides, Ayu has other thoughts, he is fancy the land price there, if he buys an extra piece at such a low price in the future, builds a bigger yard, and builds a few more houses, then his uncle will marry a wife in the future It's also easier. If it's in the city, Yangzhou City is rich in land and gold, but there are no such good things.

Little Treasure does not agree with Ayu's argument that earthen bricks are good. He is used to living in Lichun Courtyard, so naturally he has seen too many brick and tile houses, and also seen too many magnificent days. day.But they are friends, Xiaobao is loyal, so naturally he won't dislike Ayu, he even thinks in his heart that Ayu is a person who is very good at making money, and he may have great skills in the future. He has inquired about it, and it is like this friend , That's what, ah, that's right, I met Yu Weimo, and I'm very particular, that's how many of Ming Taizu's subordinates gathered around me.

"Okay, it's fine if you say yes, by the way, you haven't said yet, is this five taels enough? If it's not enough, I'll go home and ask my mother for it."

"That's enough, there's more, but since you can take it out, I'm not too polite, so I might as well borrow more, just in time for the house to be finished, and there are still a lot of things to get, furniture doesn't cost much, I I can make bamboo chairs, bamboo tables, bamboo beds, boxes and so on. They are also new ones. In addition, I want to buy some cotton, so I have to prepare winter clothes and quilts. By the way, I forgot. Can save money, Xiaobao, are you from a pawn shop or a second-hand clothes shop? I just buy old ones, find a new one that is [-]% to [-]% new, go to the place where the cotton is plucked, and re-float the cotton, which can save a lot of money , the new ones are too expensive."

Ayu looked at Xiaobao's rascal and wanted to roll his eyes. Didn't he know that Xiaobao also wanted to roll his eyes when he saw Ayu's ability to calculate and calculate carefully. He originally had a wide range of contacts, but now because of Ayu, his communication range has covered most of Yangzhou City. I don't even know who made it happen!

"Okay, okay, I see, I've made a note of this, and I will pay attention to it. You can go to your house, and I will give you a message in a few days. However, Ayu, waiting for your house, the car is not enough. Done, should we think about it, what are we doing in winter? My mother took away all my money, and you have to be responsible for finding work to earn pocket money!"

"Okay, when this thing is over, I will be here! I promise you won't rest."

Hearing Xiaobao's words, Ayu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled all over his face, earning money in winter?Even if Xiaobao doesn't talk about this matter, he has to do it. He has already thought of many plans, and he just waits for the house to be tidied up and start action. Can you agree!

Xiaobao still made Ayu's belt crooked, look, who has seen this Xiaobao who is looking for a job by himself?Be diligent!Although pocket money is hanging in front of him, it is a rare improvement.
