Reborn peasant girl: I became rich overnight by traveling to sea

Chapter 40 Danger of going to sea
Faced with her mother-in-law's question, Chang Pingning didn't know how to answer. After all, this was just an idea between her and Meng Xia, and they had not yet discussed how much money to invest.

Chang Pingning hesitated. She vaguely felt from her mother-in-law's attitude that her mother-in-law didn't seem to want to give her money from the father-in-law.

"I haven't thought about what mom just asked..." Chang Pingning told the truth, and then added after thinking, "I encountered a lot of things outside today, and my husband has plans to go to sea..."

"What?" Ye Xiuying was surprised. She stood up and was about to walk out of the main room. Then she turned to look at Chang Pingning. "Girl Ning, I'm going to ask the boss about his going to sea first. If you can help me, please help me take An'an here. You If you want to do business, don’t be in a hurry, we’ll talk about it after you think about it.”

Chang Pingning nodded and walked towards Guo Lingan who was playing nearby.

After dinner, the second brother took his three younger brothers and sisters out to play. Unexpectedly, his mother-in-law heard her and stopped An An. She was worried that An An would catch a cold, so she left An An in the main room to play by herself.

"Sister-in-law, what kind of danger will brother encounter when he goes to sea?" Guo Ling'an raised his head and asked confusedly, "Niuniu's father went to sea before and never came back." As he said that, he handed the rag in his hand to Chang Pingning.

"An'an handed this to sister-in-law. Do you want her to do something for you?" Chang Pingning took the rag and asked Guo Ling'an, "Are there many people in the village who have gone to sea and have not returned?"

"My sister-in-law is not happy, let her play with her." Guo Lingan pointed to the rags in his hand, looked at the eaves and thought for a while, then mentioned the nicknames of several children, summing up, "Their father or brother None of them came back. That’s what I heard.”

Chang Pingning was stunned, and the rag he was playing with fell unexpectedly.

"Brother will come back, right?" Guo Ling'an asked.

Ye Xiuying came into the room at this moment: "Ling'an, don't make trouble with your sister-in-law. Mom will take you to bed."

Hearing her mother-in-law's voice, Chang Pingning turned to look at her, and the two exchanged glances. Knowing that her mother-in-law could not convince Guo Bomo, Chang Pingning reluctantly smiled at Guo Ling'an and her mother-in-law.

"Mom, An'an didn't make trouble with me. She was very good and even gave me her toys to play with." Chang Pingning said and handed Guo Ling'an into the hands of her mother-in-law.

After returning to his house, Chang Pingning looked at the empty house and couldn't help but sigh: I thought Guo Bomo was an honest fish vendor, but he didn't expect that he was also a person who often stayed away from home.

"Ma'am, don't sigh. Can you drink some water to moisten your throat?" Guo Bomo pushed the door in with a bowl of water in his hand.

Chang Pingning complained about Guo Bomo in his heart. He glanced at Guo Bomo who came in, then looked away, deliberately not reaching out to take the bowl handed by Guo Bomo.

Guo Bomo noticed Chang Pingning's little movements, put the bowl in his hand on the table with a silly smile, and said flatteringly: "It's the same as waiting for the lady to be thirsty before drinking."

Seeing Guo Bomo's look, Chang Pingning became even more angry: "Have you really decided to go to sea? My mother can't persuade you?"

Guo Bomo pushed the water bowl on the table in the direction of Ping Ning: "My family has no money, and now that Brother Zhao is willing to ask me to go to sea, I might as well take advantage of these few years to make more trips. When we have money in the future, I I won’t run away. When the time comes, I won’t even go out to sea if you ask me.”

While making wisecracks, Guo Bomo saw that Chang Pingning's face looked better than before, so he took the opportunity to step forward and hug Chang Pingning.

Chang Pingning broke away from Guo Bomo's arms, glanced at him, reached out to pick up the water bowl on the table, and took a sip.

Added sugar, very sweet.

Chang Pingning sighed: "Then there's no need to make money by going to sea. Children as old as An An know the dangers of going to sea and are worried that you won't be able to come back. She just told me about her little friend, her brother and father at home who haven't come back. .”

Guo Bomo obviously remembered something, and his face darkened.Seeing that Guo Bomo was not as confident as before, Chang Pingning knew that for her and Guo Ling'an, those who had not come back had "heard about" them from others; and for Guo Bomo, some of them had even seen them with their own eyes.

Guo Bomo hugged Chang Pingning again, his voice a little muffled: "I can't just follow my father and sell sea fish all the time, and wait until you have a baby, or after you give birth to a baby, then I can go to sea to make money, right?" After he finished speaking, he added in a low voice, "Like My dad is like that."

Chang Pingning hugged Guo Bomo back and said, "How about we work together with Miss Liu and the others? I will definitely be too busy setting up a food stall at the port by myself."

"I follow you to make money? Then what will happen to me?" Guo Bomo smiled, "Besides, you have already negotiated the cooperation with those two girls. Now you call me and how many people will you share the money with?"

Chang Pingning was puzzled and looked up at Guo Bomo.

Guo Bomo looked at Chang Pingning's sparkling eyes in his arms and couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead.

"Those two have already said they won't work, so you must be the one doing the work. If the three of you cooperate, you will get one of the three shares. I will help you, there are two of us, and they are also two people. We have to Two shares, they get two shares? Or do we two get one of the three shares?" Guo Bomo explained.

Chang Pingning blinked and was about to say that she and Guo Bomo would get one of the three portions, but soon she felt that the work was done by both of them, so why should they get the small share.

"Then I'll go talk to them? Do we get two shares?" Chang Pingning looked at Guo Bomo.

Guo Bomo smiled and asked, "Would those two people agree?" If he had been trying to get the couple to join the gang from the beginning, he wouldn't have driven him away during the conversation.

After listening to Guo Bomo's questions, Chang Pingning fell silent: the problem of rice, the possible "leaking" of recipes, ways to control the price of sea urchins... All the problems that Chang Pingning could think of, Meng Xia and Miss Liu said that it was up to them. to solve.

In this case, the two of them would definitely not agree to the two of them taking only half.

"Besides, if you and I both go into this business, what if we lose everything in the future?" Guo Bomo saw Chang Pingning's hesitation and continued, "Look at my parents, one picks up seafood and the other sells fish. Even if the price of sea urchins drops sharply during this period, it will not affect dad's sea fish business." After saying that, he kissed Chang Pingning's forehead again.

Chang Pingning hugged Guo Bomo tightly, buried his face in Guo Bomo's chest, and said in a muffled voice, "But it's too dangerous to go to sea."

Guo Bomo sighed inwardly and patted Chang Pingning gently: "Don't worry, I am very good at water..."

Before he finished speaking, Chang Pingning raised his head and glared.

"If you are good at water, you should stay far away from the water on the boat." Chang Pingning broke away from Guo Bomo's arms angrily, walked to the side and sat down without looking at Guo Bomo.

Guo Bomo was stunned, and then he realized: Chang Pingning agreed to let him go to sea?

Guo Bomo happily walked behind Chang Pingning, put his arms around Chang Pingning, and whispered in her ear: "I know the lady is worried about me. So, doesn't the lady want to move to the town? Let's see what our family's money is. It’s time to buy a house in the town, why don’t I go to sea?”

After listening to Guo Bomo's words, Chang Pingning turned around and glared at him angrily: "How many times did you go out to sea to buy a house in the town? Well..."

Chang Pingning watched Guo Bomo's face suddenly enlarge in front of his eyes.

"Then it's either enough to buy a house or enough to have children." Guo Bomo said very lightly, his hands began to roam randomly around Chang Pingning's body, his voice was vague, "It's late at night, madam."
