Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!

Chapter 28 It’s better to start a business than to open up wasteland!
The red cloth was opened, revealing rows of silver locks inside, each worth five taels, more than a dozen.

Mrs. Min took a sip of tea and then said, "The ice lanterns are very good this time. I have prepared 40 taels of wages for you. There are also 20 taels to thank you for helping to avoid the disaster of water leakage.

You're welcome, take it.You deserve it! "

Tai Jizu and Tai Jiye were pleasantly surprised and excited, and hurriedly saluted to express their thanks.

When Tai Jizu stepped forward to take the tray at the end, Mrs. Min saw the burnt sleeves of his cotton-padded jacket. After thinking about it, she asked the nanny, "Find them some cotton cloth and sew some new coats, pants and shoes."

Grandma quickly agreed, but Tai Jizu rarely asked, "Thank you madam for your kindness, but can we brothers ask for a favor?

"We don't want new cotton cloth and cotton. If the brothers and sisters who work in the house have old jackets and trousers, no matter the size, can you find some for us?
"Many brothers from our clan came to help me make the ice sculptures this time, but because the coats and trousers were thin, it was really cold. Some wanted to go out, but they didn't even have coats and trousers..."

Mrs. Min originally thought that Tai Jizu was dissatisfied, disliked cotton, and wanted silk and satin.

Unexpectedly, he was actually thinking about his brothers from the same race who worked together, and what he wanted was the old coats and trousers that the slaves had discarded...

Mrs. Min felt more and more that the Tai brothers were honest and honest, so she spoke.

New cotton and cotton cloth were still given, and the slaves in the house also began to rummage through old coats and trousers...

Guanshi Min also received a reward of ten taels of silver, and he showed his face in front of his master, and he was even more grateful to the brothers of the Tai family.

He personally took the two of them to the warehouse to pick up the things. With a little favor, the nun in charge of the warehouse found seven or eight pieces of semi-old cotton cloth, and the cotton was also wrapped in twenty kilograms.

After collecting the old coats and trousers sent from various places, Tai Jizu and Tai Jiye wished they could grow eight hands, but they couldn't take them.

So, Manager Min found a carriage again...

Yang Lihua hugged her daughter, sat in the carriage, surrounded by a bunch of things, wobbled for a long time before she came back to her senses.

No wonder my brother-in-law thinks about doing business all day long. Business is indeed a shortcut to making a fortune!

With so many things and 60 taels of silver, if you were to farm, you would probably have to work very hard to cultivate twenty acres of fertile land, and it would take a whole year of good weather to earn it back!

But now, after three or five days of busy work, I just knocked some ice cubes...

Zhuzhu jumped up and down excitedly in her mother's arms, touching the two big boxes of snacks next to her from time to time. These were specially brought to her by Manager Min, good snacks for entertaining guests.

Go home and feed it to grandpa and brother!
Feed the whole family!

Fragrant and crispy dim sum!
Yang Lihua's legs hurt from being stepped on by her daughter, and when she woke up, she hurriedly told her husband and brother-in-law.

"The 20 taels rewarded by Mrs. Min should be packed separately, so that no one in the clan can see it. The 40 taels of wages should also be hidden away. No one but our family can tell."

Tai Jizu hesitated, but Tai Jiye responded immediately, "Sister-in-law is right, the 20 taels of silver is reserved for Zhuzhu to grow up and buy a dowry. If Zhuzhu hadn't been frightened by a dream, we would not have gone for a walk in the garden. If the fire Get up, don't talk about rewards, you won't even get the wages!
"There is still wages, so I can't tell the truth to the clan. Tomorrow, I will go to each family to discuss business with Manager Min. It is inevitable that some people will pay less. If the clan compares the generosity of the Min family, they may think that our family has made more money." .

"At that time, the affection to help them will be gone. On the contrary, it won't be worthwhile to be close on weekdays."

Tai Jizu heard that what his younger brother said made sense, so he said, "Okay, listen to you. But you must explain it to Dad!"

"Of course!" Yang Lihua hugged her daughter, kissed her chubby little face, feeling extremely emotional.

My daughter is really a little lucky star!

With her around, everything goes smoothly at home, and even disasters can be avoided!

Soon, the carriage arrived at the broken courtyard in the north of the city.

Although he was very tired during the day, the old man and everyone didn't sleep, thinking about how the Min family was doing.

Hearing the movement outside the door, everyone rushed out.

After waiting to send the carriage of Min's family, everyone crowded together in the main room, looking at the things all over the floor, they were all shocked and speechless.

Zhuzhu didn't care about this, she ran over with her chubby legs and grabbed the brothers' hands, "Brother, have a snack! Good time!"

Grandpa Tai waved his hand and ushered his grandchildren into the house, "Go and have snacks with your sister, don't delay everyone's conversation."

Tai Yongan immediately hugged his younger sister, and Tai Yongning followed. Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue were still a little conflicted, but holding the snack box and smelling the sweet smell, their legs automatically made a choice...

For a time, only the adults were left in the hall, and Tai Jiye talked about the whole process happily, making everyone worried or happy.

Finally, Tai Jiye took out a cloth pocket, half of which was copper coins and half silver dimes.

Of course, this is also for the convenience of sharing the money, and I specifically asked Guanshi Min to exchange it at the Min's account.

Everyone's eyes lit up and they couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

After working hard for several days, my fingers turned into carrots, just for this moment.

Mr. Tai called Yang Lihua to come forward. She had all the work records and income and expenditure accounts for the past few days.

Yang Lihua didn't delay, she opened the account book and started chatting.

It is clear who worked for a few days, how much each day's wages, and the total amount.

The money in the bag gradually decreased, and everyone held their hands full, laughing so hard that they could see their teeth but couldn't see their eyes, and praised without words.

"In previous winters, we were all cats starving at home. This year, we are really lucky. We can get paid for a few ice cubes."

"Yeah, it's all thanks to the sixth uncle's family, and we have a good life."

"That's right, that's right, Sixth Uncle's business must continue, and bring us to eat!"

Mr. Tai waved his hand, indicating to his eldest daughter-in-law to continue settling accounts.

Yang Lihua deducted various costs, and finally the family was left with eight or nine taels of silver.

Everyone is envious.

Seeing everyone's expressions, the old man tapped his cigarette pot twice and said, "Our family set up the business of making ice lamps. Cutting ice, hiring a car, buying fuel candles and hiring manpower cost a lot of money, and the profit is also high." a bit more.

"If you feel uncomfortable in your heart, you can say so. In the future, we will not stop you from doing this business yourself, or going home to Mao Donger.

"But if you want to stay, then the salary and treatment will still be the same as this time. The third child has contacted a lot of jobs, and he can always be busy for more than ten days.

"I'll put the ugliness in the first place. If you leave, our family will not stay. But if you stay, just work hard and don't be suspicious. If this business is ruined, our family will not agree."

Everyone looked at the pile of silver that had to be paid for, and their hearts sank with envy.

They have been working together these past few days and have learned a little bit.

If you choose the leader to go out and do it alone, it shouldn't be too bad.

But the cost is really overwhelming. If you invest money and fail to sell it in the end, wouldn't you even lose the wages you earned...
