Chapter 156 Asking Bailihui to sell a mule

Under the eaves, Baifu'er told all the things that happened in the past two days, such as her aunt's family bought three servants, and the big mule ran away first and made a hundred taels of silver. She was very honest.

Granny Li already knew about Bai Fang'er's purchase of a servant, and was about to say that she would find time to go to the city to have a look.

Now she was even more surprised that the mule had earned one hundred taels.

"Actually, it's two hundred and five taels. The five taels were earned first by running in the arena."

"Then what happened to the two hundred miles?"

Po Li felt that she was running out of brains. A mule could earn more money in one trip than her family could earn in a year?

Why do some people not believe it?

Bai Fu'er confessed honestly, and also explained how to spend the one hundred taels that she wanted to save for her private house. Finally, she said helplessly, "Taoist Priest Wu Bian and Master Gu both said that I can't get partial wealth, saying that partial wealth is like a wild horse.

I couldn't control it, so I was tricked into taking it away, and I don't know if it was a lie to me."

"Grandpa said that a person should be content, but since everyone said he couldn't keep it, he didn't keep it. However, Master Gu gave me another ten taels, saying it was a gift from an elder, and grandpa said he would give it to me for personal use."

Mrs. Li understood and nodded in agreement, "That's an unexpected fortune. It's not like a person who is destined to get the unexpected fortune and can't keep it. Maybe it will cause disaster. If it's gone, it's gone."

"Your grandpa said he would build a private house for you, so he would save it himself. Later, grandma will make the decision and get some money for you to build a private house."

Her sweet granddaughter, no matter how hard it hurts, she can't get enough.

She is beautiful, well-behaved, sensible, capable and brings wealth. She deserves to have a prosperous family.

Baifu'er smiled happily and talked about how his grandfather paid for earrings for all the women in the family. "My aunt helped me choose them. Grandma's are gold and the rest are silver. Duoer

Sister and Qingqing also have them, and Xiao Cuicui’s is a flower with two heads, which was given to me for free by the waiter.”

Po Li's brows widened with joy, "You keep it first and then take it out in front of everyone tomorrow."

This kind of thing is worth showing off.

Grandma and grandson were joking when Baiguoer came back with a basket on her back. Baiguoer got up and jumped over and ran over, "Second sister, have you done enough cutting today? What if we don't go together?"

Bai Guoer smiled with her eyebrows curled up, "You came back just in time. I found that the grass in one place is not growing well. Let's go together to avoid being cut away by others, so that we don't have to go out tomorrow."

As she said this, Bai Guoer went to empty out the grass from her basket, and saw her mother walking towards her from the opposite side, her head turned to the side, looking very arrogant.

The two sisters happily carried their baskets on their backs and went out, chatting and joking along the way. Baiguoer, who was still arrogant just now, was now proud, "My mother always goes behind my back to feed the pigs with my grass. In the past two days, I

If I don’t talk to her, she won’t even take my straw.”

"But my father is coming back tonight, and he will definitely arrest me to apologize to my mother. If that happens, I won't agree, huh!"

Baifu'er thought about it for a while, "Second sister, actually I think raising ducks and chickens is possible, and it can definitely make money, but we should find a way to persuade our family to let us raise more. If we just raise a little, we can make a lot of money."

What’s it for?”

"You still have to think about how to sell them if you raise too many, and who to sell them to. These are all questions."

"If we can find a way, we can definitely convince the family to agree."

This is a bit embarrassing for Baiguoer. She knows how to feed them and wants to feed them. All she wants to do is eat a lot of salted duck eggs. She never thinks about making money.

Bai Fu'er was still saying: "What if we feed a hundred ducks and collect fifty eggs a day? Our family can't eat so many eggs every day. If we don't finish them, they will spoil."

"And the most important thing is, if it is pickled, how much salt should be used?"

The price of salt is not cheap. The pickling jars of every household in the village are filled with old salt water that has accumulated over the years. The jars used for soaking salted duck eggs are also old salt water. Even making salted duck eggs in large quantities is not easy.

Bai Guoer was very sad and thought about it for a long time before saying, "Take it step by step, don't be in a hurry."

The two sisters were busy mowing the grass while talking, "Second sister, how are the tigers on the mountain doing?"

Baiguo'er shook his head, "I don't know. Grandpa took his uncle to the city to dance. Everyone told them not to go to the back mountain. Except for the time when Father Shuihua saw the tiger, no one saw it."

Baifuer raised his eyebrows, could it be that the tiger left?

As the sky gradually darkened, the two sisters each carried grass on their backs and walked home. Smoke curled up from the kitchens of various houses in the village, and the voices calling the children home irritated their skin. The village seemed to become lively all of a sudden.

After dinner, the children in the village waited in twos and threes at the entrance of the village. Today is the third day of the Duan Gong dance, and the men will come back after the dance. This means that many people's families will have a meat feast tomorrow, and they are very excited.

Po Li asked for boiling water to wash up, "I'll start planting sugar cane tomorrow, and the fields will be ridden, so go to bed early."

The sugar cane has been planted, and tomorrow the family will send ox carts and mule carts to pull it, and things will get busy again.

Bai Changfu was the most active. They all did physical work in this room, and they could fall asleep just by touching the bed. After a while, the lights in the second room were turned off, and even Bai Fuer climbed into bed early, but she was sharing the bed with her second sister.

Silver, the two sisters discussed it on the way, and their eldest sister also helped with this matter.

"The eldest sister didn't ask for wages, but she had worked hard for a few days. Fu'er and I discussed it and gave the eldest sister one tael as private money, so that the three of us would all have private money."

Baihua'er said she didn't want anything, but finally couldn't resist the two of them before she accepted it, "Speaking of it, this is the first time I have private money."

The three sisters lay down separately, thinking about the beautiful life in the future, and soon fell asleep.

At this time, Bailihui led the men to finish the last dance and settled the money in the hands of the master. As soon as he left the door, he was stopped by the people sent by the wretched Mr. Liu.

"Mr. Bai Duangong, can you lend me a moment to speak?"

When Bailihui heard that the guest who was staying at Wei's house wanted to buy a big mule, Bailihui refused without thinking.

The visitor smiled and said, "Buying a new mule only costs a few taels of silver. My young master is generous and gives Mr. Bai Duan the right to set his own price. As long as Mr. Bai Duan is willing to give up, he can exchange for several mules by selling that mule."

.”

"There's no better deal than this."

Bailihui knew that the other party was not short of money. After all, he was someone who would not blink an eye even if he lost a hundred taels. But the big mule was very important to Baijia, so he never thought about taking action.

"You don't need to answer now. You can go back and think about it. But like a beast pulling rocks, Bai Duangong should have a choice."

After saying this, the man left very confidently. He was sure that Bailihui would definitely agree.

Bailihui looked at his back expressionlessly, then quickly turned around and left with everyone. It was getting late and they should go home.
