Little Fubao from the farmhouse takes space to flee famine

Chapter 26 Doing Business

When it got dark, everyone came back one after another, and saw that there were a lot of things in the house, including everything.

"Cuiying, you are going home to buy new year's goods."

This is the ridicule of Wang's father, how can a married daughter move back to her mother's house, let Fang's family look at them.

Maybe he was thinking about his daughter's life in the Wang family.

The old couple went to pay the booth fee today and found a better place where they could see the cargo ships coming and going on the pier.

"Father, have you sold the wheat?"

Father Wang nodded, and took out the money bag from his arms. There were three hundred Wen in it.

"Sold to a trafficker. He specializes in collecting all kinds of grain. He said that our goods are good, and wanted to ask if our family still has any more. I said that I was doing things for others, and asked him to exchange twice as much wheat with us. .”

"Then why isn't he surprised that we have good wheat and want his poor wheat?" Zhang Guihua couldn't figure it out.

"Of course he also understands that a thousand pounds of ordinary wheat and good wheat are both wheat. Of course, the ordinary wheat should be handed over, and the superiors did not say what quality they want. When we get it together, we will go to the county to remove the name, so as not to expose it in the future. Other problems."

"Since he is harvesting grain, let's take the good wheat and exchange him with twice the ordinary wheat."

Father Wang shook his head: "No, no, if we have too many, we will become suspicious. Let's find a few more people and exchange it for [-] catties. You can buy it with money. Even if you spend more money, you will be more safe."

"Tomorrow we will help set up a stall first, and we will sell wheat every few days. Flour is very popular. When I went to Jianan Town, as soon as I opened my pocket, someone saw our flour and said it was the first time I saw it. Such a beautiful powder, bought it together.

Their family is in the noodle business, and they have a good eye for flour, so they immediately fell in love with our products. "

Wang Yonglin was very excited when he talked about how he sold fans today. He rarely sells things, and he is not very good at selling.

"Okay, then let's try to set up a stall tomorrow, everyone, you just bring a few boys to prepare for the New Year, and our family will have a good New Year this year.

Keep some of the money and save it, and when the situation is good next year, Wen Wenyuan will be sent to study, as long as you can know a few words, you don’t need official careers, as long as you can read letters and numbers.

Our two children have never really been to school at this age. Our family will get better and better in the future and we need people with knowledge. "

What?read?Several women's ears pointed up.

Liu Chunlan and Zhang Guihua were the most surprised and wanted to send their eldest son to study.

You must know that they only have two places to study here, one is Songbai Academy, and the other is a private school for children's enlightenment.

Songbai Academy was built with money donated by local gentry, and sometimes the court would provide financial subsidies. The tutors hired were all well-known scholars, and they had more or less official positions, but they were just positions without power. There aren't many jobs.

However, the deans of the academy are different. Most of them are court officials who have retired and returned to their hometowns. They are invited to manage local culture and cultivate talents.

Those who can enter such an academy are equivalent to half a foot in the official career, and they will not be too bad after coming out for the last time.

Father Wang's family doesn't have the ability and connections to send their children to Songbai Academy, where a year's repair costs ten taels of silver.

For ordinary people, it is an astronomical figure. He plans to send his two children to a private school, where it only costs more than three taels a year to repair two children and six taels a year.

"Father, you haven't handled the water well. How can the old family and the second family go? Wenqing and Wenhua are both so old. It just happens to be a good time for enlightenment."

Fang Cuiying was dissatisfied that there was no place for her children. She had long wanted her children to go to school, but she couldn't afford it. She also knew the situation at home.

But now that it is brought up, it must be treated fairly. How about three taels of silver per person?Take it wherever you say, so what about the rest.

Father Wang asked everyone to be calm and calm. He meant to let the two older ones go first. Wen Ming is [-] years old this year, and Wen Yuan is also [-] years old. The other children can wait for the two older brothers to come back and teach everyone. .

In this way, other children will be sent in after one or two years, so that everyone's children will study at this age, and no one will be treated badly.

After everyone's persuasion, Fang Cuiying compromised and asked that her two children must be sent to study in the year after next.

Regardless of whether your children can read well or not, if you give them a chance to study, they will need to be able to do business in the future no matter how you do business.

What if their family becomes bigger and stronger, and they can't even count the amount of money, it will make people laugh out loud.

Father Wang promised that the second and fourth families would send Wen Zhuo and Wen Qing to study in the year after next.

There are too many children in their family, and studying is very expensive, and they can't afford too much.

Although each family has their own thoughts, they all put it in the bottom of their hearts and prepare for tomorrow's business.

At night, the boys on the Datong bunk couldn't sleep. They heard grandpa say that he would send the eldest brother and the second brother to study.

After studying, you can wear clean robes like the students outside the academy, and everyone praises you for your book business.

They have seen those students walking with wind, always carrying a few books in their bags, shaking their heads and talking words they don't understand.

Wen Ming and Wen Yuanxin were happy. They had never thought of studying, the kind of rich people who send their children to study.

In the middle of the night, the door of Mr. Wang's room was opened, his eyes were sleepy, and he was finishing the things that were going to be set up this morning.

Several women also tidied themselves hastily. They had to knead the dough first and cut out the noodles.

Zhang Guihua picked a few good-looking Chinese cabbages, washed them, cut them into shreds and put them in a basin.

After packing up the necessary things, it will soon be dawn outside, and it will take more than an hour to walk from the village to the town.

When they arrived at the pier, many people setting up stalls started shouting.

The men doing coolies are already helping to fight against the goods at the bow.

"Brother Yong'an, you are all here! This is to set up a stall! Are you going to do business?"

The one who spoke was a young man who was very close to the brothers of the Wang family, and it was even better to wear a pair of trousers with Wang Yongye.

"Fengping, you're here so early. Let's have a bowl of noodles and see if your sister-in-law's cooking is good."

Father Wang was very happy to see this young man. He is a good child, hardworking and filial.

"Uncle Wang, then I won't be polite. This is three Wen coins. I'm the first customer on the first day you set up a stall. I have to charge you for this money. It's not much, so just treat it as a joy."

These words were very popular among the women, especially Fang Cuiying. The first one to open a business must be retained, and she will earn at least two dollars. This is what her father told her, otherwise the business will not be good for a day.

Even if this guy has good eyesight, Fang Cuiying always put two more sticks down there.

There is a charcoal fire burning in the stove, which is their special charcoal, so they can save some money.

The boiling water was boiling in the big pot, and soon the noodles were fished out. Liu Chunlan dug out a small piece of lard with a spoon in the earthen pot, and the noodle soup was immediately filled with fragrance.

"Thank you sister-in-law, it smells so good! The craftsmanship is really good!"

Lu Fengping praised it while eating. The noodles tasted really good. He praised it from the bottom of his heart.

"Really? How do you think it compares to other homes here?"

Fang Cuiying was not willing to spend money to find out the situation of the enemy, and it hurts her heart to spend money to eat other people's noodles.

"I don't know this, but my sister-in-law's noodles are the best I've ever tasted."

Lu Fengping was a little embarrassed. Although he had worked here for a long time, he had never eaten anything at those stalls. His mother would prepare dry food and pancakes for him, so that he could save more money.

His mother said that after two years, he will find a daughter-in-law for him, but he can't let the little daughter-in-law suffer along with her.
