Jia Huan's rebirth and revenge

With money and enthusiasm, you can definitely burn the sea dry. As Jia Huan predicted, men, women and children in a village waited by the sea before dawn, hoping that the sea would recede.While waiting, they were still chatting there, talking about what they ate yesterday, how much food they got, and how many others were left. After the money is earned, there is already a budget for where to spend it.

"I've figured it out. Let's work hard for half a month. Counting four hundred taels each time, ten times, that's four thousand taels, a full four taels of silver. With these four taels of silver, the family's The old house can just be refurbished, and a few more rooms can be added for the children to marry. My family has thought about this matter many times, but money is tight, and it has never been done. With this money, then It’s sleepiness meeting the pillow.”

This is Villager A. The tightness of their house is the most obvious in the whole village. If Jia Huan's house hadn't been in disrepair, the house would be more relaxed than theirs.No wonder I was so anxious to think about the house.

"The house is a big deal, but let me tell you, it's also a big deal to get married to a child. I haven't saved enough money for my kid's marriage for several years. With this kind of income, I can make it up all at once. , Even the dowry can buy a few decent things.”

This family has a lot of children, and more children means more labor. This is a good thing, but having more children also means more expenses on the marriage, which is indeed more troublesome, and the money is even more frustrating.

"If you ask me, it's the Miao Miao's family that's the best deal this time. They both live in the Dragon King Temple, and the house doesn't need to be repaired. The homestead can be used as a dowry for Miao Miao. It's safe to earn money. It is a real thing that can be eaten in the mouth immediately and worn on the body. Just to prevent the future, her grandmother also hangs up the work of the Dragon King Temple to visit the temple, so she can always have something to eat, but it is inevitable. If there are few things, even if there are many, it is also for buying dowry clothes."

It doesn’t matter what they said about their own family, these few have started to think about the situation of other people’s family. In this world, there is never a shortage of people who talk badly, and there are also many women who like to think about other people’s families.

"If you want me to say, this time the old Jia's family is the most profitable. Who knows that the fiery red conch can be sold for so much money. Now the old Jia's family can be regarded as a turnaround. I heard that their family has already I'm starting to think about repairing the house."

"The Qi family is also blessed. When her man died, it was really miserable. Brother Xing didn't grow up, didn't marry a wife, and those children were young, so they couldn't use their strength. They only had to open their mouths to eat. Didn't someone say that the old Jia's family is about to fall, that is, that the child of Xiao Miao is suffering, her mother's family is gone, and her husband's family is like this. I'm afraid it's hard to say whether they can survive in the future. Who knows It turned out to be like this once, with this money, if you add this hard money, it will not last for a few years, in addition to the house, their family can even buy a boat again."

"What, are you jealous?"

"It's jealousy, you are not jealous, but I know it very well, the jealousy is jealousy, but what should be grateful is to be grateful, not to mention that the second son of his family found out such a way of making money for us, it was the last time The matter of the sea pig was thanks to that child, otherwise we would have had so much meat to eat? People in our fishing family have very clear grievances and grievances, so even if I am jealous, I will never repay it in the future. vague."

What I said immediately won a burst of praise from the people around me. It is true that the village may be small and the villagers may be poor, but people who face the sea always have a heart that people in the inland do not have. They are straightforward and generous, just like the sea. Broad, the impact of the environment on human nature can also be seen from this.

The people in the village are really grateful to Jia Huan this time. These days, people like them have very few ways to get money, except for fishing, selling fish, spending money on flowers, etc. With a little effort, what else can you do other than go to the sea to get something to sell?field?On the edge of this stone mountain, there is really no way to support people. It is good enough to grow vegetables on a small amount of land, but the harvest is not as much as half of the outside, which shows how barren this place is.Doing business?They have grown up in this fishing village for generations, how long can they contact the outside world?Where do you know what to buy and what to sell?No matter how smart they are, they have no connections, no news, and no channels. These days, they need guides to go out of the county town of their own area. What can they do?hunt?This is possible, but you can only go to the mountain on the main line, and this main line is not a land with a lot of prey. There are people from other villages living there. They are more experienced and more convenient. How much can they have? Advantage?Even if you want to break stones or be a stonemason, you can't do it. Who made the surrounding stone mountains so many stonemasons, there is no competitive advantage.

As a result, Jiahuan’s village has no other life skills except fishing, and it is precisely because of this that it has always been so poor, and the village head’s family is better than others. Ding is the most. In the whole village, there are four families of the same ancestors of them, accounting for a quarter of the village's population. Is there a lot of strength? Secondly, their family also has an ancestral craft, that is Building a house is not a small skill in construction, and you can also be a carpenter. From time to time, you can go outside to do some work. In this way, from generation to generation, this family business will be more than other villagers. Even if the family is separated, it will not affect The foundation of their family, such as the village head's family, is said to have bought five or six acres of land in the next village.

With the land, at least they can be self-sufficient in terms of rice and grain, plus other income. This is why their family can afford mules and own the only mule cart in the village.

But you want to say that other people in this village really have no skills at all?In fact, this is not the case, but they don't know that these skills that are not valued daily can also be exchanged for money.

"Brother, there are too many wind chimes, so it may not be able to sell for a good price. I saw my uncle made a lot of fish bone carvings a while ago, and I wondered if I would try them together next time. I can't say. Someone likes it."

Jia Huan’s uncle, surnamed Qian, is the last of the six surnames in this village and the one with the smallest number of people. They are the only family in this family that has been passed down from generation to generation. Even Jia Huan’s aunt gave birth to only one son, who is 22 years old this year. Qian Haixing, and this cousin, married a cousin of Wang Xiaomiao, and now has a son, three-year-old Bao'er. After Jia Huan's accident, the family also helped a lot, but their family I didn't live very well at first, although the house was not bad, but the boat sank with my uncle's father in the shipwreck as early as the previous generation, and now it all depends on my uncle to help other people's boats The master lives, and Wang Xiaomiao also needs to help the village, so there is not much help that can be given to their family, but even if there is not much, it is the heart of the family. Jia Huan will not forget the family ungratefully, so When looking for a way to get rich, I didn't forget to help my relatives, not to mention whether I can sell it or not, it's a way anyway, isn't it, what if someone really likes it?Even if you sell one or two, you can get a few catties of rice back, right?

Brother Xing was taken aback when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed again. He touched his head cheerfully and said:

"It's true, people in this city like weird things. We look at the ordinary ones, so maybe they just like them. Besides, the things my uncle engraves are really pretty. I saw one earlier. The big one is a dolphin, but it is beautiful, and my uncle hid it very deeply. It is said that it is made of the skull of a three-foot-long fish that was stranded when he was young. If it can be sold for a lot of money, my uncle will die of joy."

Jia Huan was taken aback when he heard that there was such a big guy, and then he was overjoyed. He is not one of these fishermen and has little knowledge. Naturally, he knows that the rarer the more eye-catching things, the more expensive they are. After thinking about it said:

"If this is the case, this big thing can't be sold right away. Let's bring some small ones over next time. Big brother, do you remember the scholar who bought the flaming conch for ten taels of silver? He is a good person, and he probably has a family background. Another person who likes strange things, if the time comes to attract him to ask for it, maybe he can sell it better."

There is a difference between sending it to your door and someone asking for a proper price. Jia Huan knows this very well. He doesn't want his uncle to suffer. benefit?That's my aunt, my uncle.

"If this is the case, second son, we should look for more good things. I remember that every time Dad went to sea, he would always pick up some nice and interesting things in the fishing net and bring them back for us to play with. There are not many of these things. If I know if there is one that can sell for a lot of money, I have to look for it."

Brother Xing might have been stimulated by the ten taels of silver last time, or inspired by Jia Huan's story about selling bone carvings for money. Suddenly, he seemed to be enlightened and began to have his own ideas. Jia Huan couldn't accept it for a while. The eldest brother who was already calm like a middle-aged man in his 30s and [-]s suddenly became lively at his age, but he secretly hoped that if the eldest brother could really find Good things are fine. Even though this family seems to have some hope now, it still has too little confidence. If you don't step up to find a way, after the new year, when the money in your hand is spent on the house, the family will be in danger. After emptying out, you have to face the situation of being poor and white again.
