Stingy Husband Farming
Chapter 88
There are actually not many things in the Song family's warehouse.Who let the family manage the money before, it was the stingy Song Bai.
Compared with other high-ranking households who buy and stock up regularly and quantitatively every quarter, the Song family always buys what they need, and buys as much as they need, and they don't want to spend any extra money.
So the storeroom can be said to be extremely shabby, with only some things sent by others in favor of favors.
...not very pretty.
Because all the good-looking ones were taken away by the beauty-loving Song Xiaomei.
But Shen Mu didn't dislike it at all, and carefully touched the cloth with old-fashioned colors and new patterns from time to time: "It's so slippery!"
Although it is not pretty, the texture is still very good.
Song Bai frowned. He never cared about his own warehouse before, but now he regretted it for the first time.After a good choice, I only picked out two colors that are suitable for Liu Shi to wear. The rest, whether he or Shen Mu wears them, are a bit old-fashioned.
"Why don't you just forget about it." They don't look good, so let's buy new ones when we get back to Fengshui County.
Shen Mu also nodded: "These fabrics are so good, I don't even know how to work in them." His few fancy clothes were worn at the banquet where the Song family announced his identity to the outside world. They don't dare to move around, for fear of staining and damaging the delicate and expensive fabric.
"...I didn't mean that." Song Bai felt a little distressed, "These fabrics are not good-looking, too old-fashioned, and not suitable for you to wear. Let's buy beautiful ones in the future."
Shen Mu was shocked: "What to buy! How much does such a good material cost! My previous clothes were very good, just keep wearing them!"
Now Song Bai entrusted him to keep all the money and put it into his pocket, he really didn't want to take it out at all!
Shen Mu's eyes flicked a few times on the cloth in front of him: "Why don't you just take a few, I think these are pretty good..."
Shen Mu casually pointed out a few, fearing that Song Bai would go out to buy again.In the end, he taught Song Bai a lesson: "I found that you have changed... I wanted to say that the day I bought the Kongming Lantern, you have become lavish." Shen Mu looked at him with condemning eyes: "When you were in Shenjiatun before, you were not like this. of."
You are obviously the same as me, you can't wait to break a penny into two petals, and you don't even want to cook with oil...
Is it because there is more money in the pocket now?It actually started to float!
Song Bai was taken aback by what he said, and began to reflect on himself.
It's definitely not because he has more money in his pocket. He used to control the entire Song family's money, so he's still picky.
When did you change yourself?
Song Bai sighed: "It's not that I've changed, I just... love you." He hugged Shen Mu from behind, buried his chin on Shen Mu's shoulder, and felt a little wronged by Shen Mu's accusation: "I don't care about you either." I know what's wrong with me... I don't want to spend money myself, I just want to spend money for you alone."
As for buying fabrics, he only wanted to buy them for Shen Mu, not for himself.He can take away his old clothes. After all these years, he was still held down by Master Song and Xue Bai during the New Years, and made a few fancy clothes.
Song Bai thought that he would wear common clothes like he did when he was in Shenjiatun, and if there were any important occasions, he could just wear the fancy clothes he made before.
But for Shen Mu, he was reluctant to let him continue to wear old clothes.He wanted to make something for Shen Mu, wear the thinnest and softest fabrics, and let Shen Mu live a life that everyone envied.
After hearing this, Shen Mu was very surprised and turned to Song Bai.
After Song Bai said these words, he couldn't sort out his emotions, and his face was a little red.
Her face, which was already pretty, turned red like this, almost as beautiful as a peach or plum.Shen Mu looked at it, and his face also started to turn red.
But he still insisted and said seriously: "No, stop this kind of thinking quickly!"
Song Bai: "..."
Although Song Bai tried his best to bear it, there was still some aggrieved and hurt expression on his face.
"No, that's not what I meant." Shen Mu hurriedly said, "I mean...the days before were already good, and I really liked the life before. The days now...are so good, it's too good to be true .”
"It's like you just gave me 4 taels of silver notes. I still feel like I'm floating on the clouds, just like a dream..." Shen Mu scratched his head and became cruel again: "I'm not saying that I can't spend money. Money, after all, now that you have money, it seems a bit silly not to spend it alone...but you can't spend it indiscriminately."
"Money still needs to be spent wisely. I don't lack clothes. Even if I do, I can buy cotton cloth. There is really no need to buy such a good material." The fabric: "I never dreamed that I could have such a good material before I changed it. Now you still think they are not good-looking, and you have to dry them before you buy them... Wouldn't it be a waste of these fabrics to be left unused?" gone?"
Shen Mu lowered his head and touched the material, feeling emotion in his heart.
It's funny to say, who didn't dream of getting rich when they had no money before?But on the day when I was really rich, the 4 taels of silver bills were placed in the house, and I couldn't believe it again.
Is that money... his own?
It seems that Song Bai clearly handed over the money to himself, saying that Fu Lang should take care of all the money in the family.But does the origin of the money have anything to do with me?
Shen Mu is really not at ease in the fact that the money is not earned through his own labor, but it is a waste of money.
Song Bai looked at his serious and serious eyes, and his heart softened.
Xiaomu is right!Didn't I just like Shen Mu's stinginess at first?He still regards Shen Mu as his spiritual partner, so why is he the one who wants to spend money first?
Song Bai hurriedly said: "You're right, my mentality is wrong recently, and I will definitely correct it in the future." But in his heart, he still wanted to give Shen Mu the best, and he cut half of the remaining fabrics in the warehouse with a wave of his hand: "These It’s a waste to keep the cloth, take more, if it doesn’t look good, make it into an inner garment, as long as it’s comfortable to wear!”
In fact, it can be sold in the store... Isn't the family going to open a cloth shop?Shen Mu opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything.
Forget it, forget it, Brother Bo has his own mind, so let's spend it extravagantly.
…………
Time goes by like running water, Song Bai arranges the handover of the shop every day, while Shen Mu packs his luggage in the mansion.Food, clothing, housing, and transportation, as long as you can bring everything, you won’t have to buy new ones when you go back to Shenjiatun.
Seeing Shen Mu's packed things, Song Xiaomei's eyes almost popped out: "No way, you also want such an ugly fabric? And these are... chopsticks? Bowls? You also want to bring these? It will be broken on the way!"
Shen Mu opened his eyes and said nonsense: "It's ugly, I just like this color. Oh, these chopsticks and bowls are also dusty in the warehouse. I will save them and buy them later. I just took these cloths If they are wrapped up, they won't be afraid of breaking!"
Yuhu prefecture has suffered such a big disaster, those guys in my family are probably gone, so prepare more to be prepared.
Song Xiaomei can tell that her sister-in-law is stingy compared to her elder brother, and it is even worse...
After a while, Song Bai would send someone to inquire about the situation in Yuhu Prefecture.
Now that the disaster has calmed down, the government has already started to suppress the bandits, and it won't be long before they can go back.
In fact, even now, it is possible to go back.But Song Bai was robbed by bandits once before, and he still regretted his life, so he decided to wait for a while.
"This natural disaster plus man-made disaster, many people died in Yuhu Prefecture." Song Bai looked at the letter in front of him and sighed.
But from a businessman's point of view, it is a profitable time.
Nearly half of the people in the territory died. Yuhu Prefecture is now much cheaper in terms of housing prices and land prices. The price increase is food.
Few people died from floods and landslides, and many more died of starvation in the famine that followed the disaster.What kind of house or place, if you have a bite, save your life first.
... I don't know if the 50 taels of silver I left for Shen Qingshi is enough for the villagers to support them when they go back.
At that time, Song Bai didn't think much about it. For a village, 50 taels of silver is certainly a lot in a peaceful year, but in a disaster year, it's not enough.
"When we go back, we might as well take a few carts of grain back." Song Bai reluctantly said, "We don't want to make money out of black hearts, so we will sell it at the market price in Xing'an County."
Such a good opportunity to make money, if you don’t make black money, your conscience is calling yourself, it’s impossible for free!
Besides, now that the price of grain in Yuhu Prefecture has increased by more than ten times, the grain sold at the price of Xing'an County is already doing charity, okay?
Shen Mu was a little worried: "Is...is this safe?" Although he also wanted to help the villagers, according to what the letter said, the reason for the crazy price increase of grain in Yuhu Prefecture was because no grain merchants from other places dared to enter Yuhu Prefecture to sell grain.
In the past, it was not that they were bold enough to seek wealth and risk, and brought grain to Yuhu Prefecture to sell, but they would be robbed shortly after entering Yuhu Prefecture, which made it impossible to get food from outside, and there was not enough food in the state.
And the strong people are not bandits, but hungry refugees. Even if the government wants to control them, the law does not hold them accountable.
"Things will get better in two months..." Song Bai tapped the letter with two fingers, "Well...it's really not possible, then I will ask my parents to help me go, anyway, they are going to the East China Sea Fishing, do me a favor along the way."
"? What can my father and mother do to help?" Shen Mu was puzzled.
"Well, just..." Song Bai was at a loss for words for a while, "This matter is a bit mysterious, it's about my parents, I can't talk about it yet."
"But don't worry, I will tell you sooner or later."
…………
Meifu.
The butler hurried into Master Mei's study: "Master, the man has been found."
Master Mei was frowning and looking at the account book. Hearing this, his spirits were lifted: "Did you bring it back?"
"On the way, going back, there are some troubles along the way." The housekeeper handed over a letter with a bitter face: "The situation in Yuhu Prefecture is really chaotic, it is not an exaggeration to say that there are bandits everywhere... We have already broken There are two of us...Master, is this really a good deal?"
Two servants have died in Yuhu Prefecture, which is a loss.Besides, the one who died was the son of the family, and his parents and brothers also worked in the mansion.When a person dies, it is necessary to reward some silver to appease relatives.
Master Mei hastily read the letter: "One of the Song family's cloth houses has been renovated, and they have started recruiting staff these days. This Song Bai is determined to fight against me, and I won't show him any color." Look, I'm afraid he won't stop. When the cloth shop opens, the impact on our family's business will be more than just rewards."
The news that the Song family is going to open the cloth shop has already spread. Although there is no clear word on when it will open, the shop is decorated and the plaque is hung up. People in the county are looking forward to it.
The food sold by Songjia Food Company has always been reasonably priced and of good quality.Opening a cloth shop, the way you want to act is the same, right?
Besides, as we all know, the Song family has six grain stores in the county, and every time a new branch is opened, there will be discounts... There is a family that is very budget-conscious, and they planned to buy cloth but did not buy it for the time being, just waiting for the Song family cloth shop. What about opening events?
Just now, Master Caimei was looking at this month's account book, and he obviously felt that his income was a little less than last month.
It has such an impact before it is opened, if it really makes him open...
Master Mei glared at the butler: "Short-sighted... Let them bring him back as soon as possible, before the opening of Songjiabuzhuang!"
Compared with other high-ranking households who buy and stock up regularly and quantitatively every quarter, the Song family always buys what they need, and buys as much as they need, and they don't want to spend any extra money.
So the storeroom can be said to be extremely shabby, with only some things sent by others in favor of favors.
