Chapter 8 Run!(1/2)

"good."

"Trouble Brother Dazhi."

Mrs. Cao and Zhang obeyed her son's advice, and when they saw that Cao Xin had already agreed, they followed suit dryly.

Then just hand over the money and deliver the goods.

Xu Dazhi didn't care much about the quality of the copper coins. He had a full amount of 150 coins and didn't play tricks on it.

Mrs. Cao Zhang counted the money, smiled broadly, and thanked Xu Dazhi again.

Cao Xin put his feet up and asked, "My brother said there will be more in the future. There are also pheasants. Will Brother Dazhi take them?"

"receive!"

"Tell your brother, I'll take as many pheasants and hares as you can get."

Xu Dazhi's tone was extremely loud.

But he does have a market. The wild animals that come to his door can be sold at a profit, and he can also sell Cao Ren's favors. Only a fool would not do it.

but.

He looked at Cao Zhang, Cao Xin, mother and son, and couldn't help but wonder: "My brother Cao Ren hasn't come back yet?"

"Nope."

"My brother has something to do with the gang and has to go out for half a month."

Cao Xin replied honestly.

"Hey, this is a faraway place."

"Okay, wait until your brother comes back and let him come over for a drink."

Xu Dazhi did not leave Cao Zhang and Cao Xin to have dinner at home, and Cao Zhang had no intention of staying here. She had nearly two hundred copper coins in her arms, a full 150 Wen, and she only wanted to go home and count the money.

But before Cao Xin left, he had one more thing to ask Xu Dazhi: "I just heard from Granny Shitou of the Central Courtyard that my rabbit was stolen. Brother Dazhi has nothing to do these two days, please help me explain. Where did this wild rabbit go to steal? I will return it every day from now on."

I want to give it to you, except how can I catch so many hares myself."

Cao Xin had an angry face.

"Ha ha!"

"Ms. Zhen is so virtuous. Don't talk to her. I'll explain it to you in the courtyard."

Xu Dazhi agreed immediately.

Cao Xin then followed Cao Zhang back to the front yard.



"Mother! Mother!"

"How was it! How was it? How much did it cost?"

In the Cao family, Cao Xian stood at the door and walked around like an ant on a hot pot. When he saw Cao Zhang and Cao Xin coming back, he hurried forward to greet them and ask.

"Let's talk when we get home."

After Cao Zhang entered the room, he poured a large bag of copper coins on the bed and counted them carefully one by one.

Cao Xian also followed suit.

at last--

"193."

"150 Wen."

"Our family has made a fortune!"

Cao Xian smiled crookedly.

The family spent a lot of money this morning, and the money bag was almost at the bottom. This afternoon, she and Mrs. Cao Zhang were a little confused.

Now that a sudden 150 yuan was received, their anxiety was greatly relieved.

"What are you thinking about!"

Cao Xin drew out 140 Wen from the 150 Wen, leaving only 10 Wen for Cao Zhang: "140 Wen is the capital and must be returned to others. The remaining 10 Wen is what our family earns."

150 Wen suddenly dropped to 10 Wen.

The gap is not that big.

But Cao Zhang's and Cao Xian's faces were still happy: "Ten cents is fine!"

The eldest brother, Cao Ren, only received an average of 10 cents per day in the first half month.

This time it doubled.

If this business was done every day, the Cao family would have a bright future.

"From now on, there will probably be two hares every day."

Cao Xin estimated the number of hares in the territory and said to the two of them.

"Two a day!"

"Twenty cents a day!"

Cao Xian's eyes will shine, and his little dark face will also shine: "I'm getting better!"

"It's not easy boss!"

Mrs. Cao Zhang couldn't help wiping her tears, thinking that Cao Ren had tried so hard to find a way to make money for her family.

Cao Xin didn't explain either.

There is no need to divide a family into so many details.

He caught a hare from the primitive fairyland and sold it to Xu Dazhi for 150 fen, leaving 10 fen for his family. He took 140 fen for himself and said it was the cost of buying a rabbit for others.

Two a day.

The family earns 20 Wen, and Cao Xin keeps 280 Wen for himself.

After half a month like this, he can earn 4,200 wen, which is exactly 3 taels of silver.

In addition to the 50 Wen that I received from [Cai Shui] every day, I had to take out 10 Wen every day and falsely claimed that it was the salary given to my eldest brother by the Cai Shui Gang.

After 14 days, there are 560 coins left, which is exactly 4 silver coins.

This is the first pot of gold.

When the eldest brother comes back, he will use the money to buy chickens, and the chicken farm in the original fairyland will be opened quickly.

"Good times are coming soon!"

Cao Xin's heart was filled with enthusiasm.



Night falls.

The Cao family is rarely lively and festive.

In the past, I had to worry about my livelihood every day, and the burden of life weighed on everyone, so I couldn't be happy at all.

Until today.

Although Cao Ren is not here, it is not complete.

But today, I first got on the line with the aunt in the morning and bought a lot of household items, especially the linen cloth. I can make some clothes for the family, and I hope to get some sewing and repairs through the aunt or other old aunts and daughters-in-law in the courtyard.

It's a bit of a make-up job, and it gives me some hope.

Immediately afterwards.

In the evening Cao Xin brought back a big surprise.

The surprise was finally settled at this time. The income of at least 10 to 20 yuan a day made Cao Zhang and Cao Xian unable to stop smiling.

Even little Cao Liang felt something was wrong. He looked at this and that. Then when he saw the new cloth put aside, he suddenly became happy.

But the good times didn't last long——

"I thought about it this afternoon. If this roll of cloth is used to make clothes for adults, two clothes are enough. But if I make one for the eldest brother, the eldest sister, and you, I can make three clothes. There will be enough leftovers to make a pair of shoes for your eldest brother.

.”

"Sister's outfit can be worn by you brothers no matter how old you are, and the boss's outfit will also work."

"I say it's for the boss and eldest sister, but actually it's all yours from now on."

After Cao Zhang finished a few mouthfuls of wild vegetable and grain porridge, she wiped her hands and pulled the cloth apart, making gestures horizontally and vertically, already thinking about what to do -

Cao Ren.

Cao Xian is all in one.

Cao Xin is all in one.
