Chapter 18 Planning to open a shop in partnership
"Here, sister, come in!" Wang Erniu used a dagger to make a wolf skin.

Wang Lin ran out and said disappointedly when she didn't see Su Yun.

"Aunt Su, why didn't Yun'er come?"

"I'm learning embroidery at home. Let's go out and play together when the weather clears up in two days!" Liu Xia knelt down and touched Wang Lin's head.

Wang Lin smiled sweetly, "Okay!"

Wang Erniu raised his head, "Are you here to buy meat?"

"Yes, I wonder what kind of meat Brother Erniu has at home?"

"You came just in time. We only have some pheasants and hares left at home. I'm afraid I'll have to go to town if I want to buy some!" Wang Erniu washed his hands and wiped them on his coat, leaving a vague wet fingerprint.

Liu Xia asked, "What's wrong?"

"Yesterday I went hunting in the mountains and met a wolf that had fallen out of the pack. After I was killed by that beast, it scratched blood marks on my arm. When Xiaolin saw that I was injured, she said nothing and wouldn't let me go hunting again. I just thought Xiaolin was born without a mother, what will she do as a little girl if I am no longer here?" Wang Erniu pulled up his sleeves, which were covered with three hideous scratches.

"I have long advised you not to work so hard, but now that you have figured it out, it is for the best. Just for Xiaolin, you have to find a stable job."

Liu Xia nodded and put one arm around Wang Lin beside her.

Wang Lin felt warm in her heart. Yun'er was a little fairy and Yun'er's mother was a big fairy. They were the two of them that she rarely felt warm.

She leaned her head against Liu Xia, imagining whether her mother would hug her like this when she was still alive.

Su Bing looked at Liu Xia eagerly and then glared at Wang Lin with widened peach blossom eyes.

But this look is not lethal, but makes people feel easy to bully.

Wang Lin tugged at Liu Xia.

"What's wrong?" Liu Xia smiled softly.

"Aunt Su, why are Uncle Su crying? My father said that men don't shed tears when they bleed, and those who shed tears are women!"

Su Bing's eyes widened, and the ends of his eyes were still glowing red.

When is he going to cry?

No wonder Guaiguai always plays with the girl from Brother Erniu's family. Her little mouth is exactly the same as Guaiguai's.

Liu Xia didn't even give Su Bing a look, "Ignore him, if he wants to cry, just let him cry!"

No, wife, I really didn’t cry!
Su Bing wanted to say something, but because there were outsiders here, he finally kept his mouth shut.

Wang Erniu rubbed his hands and apologized.

"I'm sorry, brother Su, Xiaolin just listened to my nonsense!"

"It's okay, Brother Erniu, what are your plans for the future!" Su Bing really didn't care about this, he was already used to being bullied by his own family.

Wang Erniu has a rough face with an unshaven beard and a fierce look.

But he is a simple and honest person.

He pinched the corners of his clothes when he was nervous.

"I haven't thought about this yet... I only have the strength to do it..."

"If Brother Erniu has money, he can open a pig-killing shop in the village. Most people in our village have some spare money. Although each household does not buy meat every day, it can still buy it a few times throughout the year. Our village is close to Longde town is far away, so it's not convenient to buy anything. It would be much more convenient if we opened a shop."

"Brother Su, what do you think if I open a store that not only sells pork, but also other pots and pans that are commonly used by villagers?" Wang Erniu thought about it and drew inferences.

Su Bing's eyes lit up, "Very good, but how to source this supply? The price cannot be higher than the town, nor much less than the town. The cheaper one is only one or two cents. I believe it is not only our Qingshan Village, but also the neighboring villages." I’m willing to buy it!”

"To tell you the truth, Brother Su, I know a brother who is in charge of the escort agency. They often have some goods withheld because they haven't paid off the money.

Because the goods were too miscellaneous and out-of-date, the shopkeeper in the town was keeping the price down. My brother was worried to death. It was almost the Chinese New Year, and he had no money to pay to his subordinates. "Wang Erniu said excitedly.

If this thing can really come true, it will not only help the escort brother solve the current difficult problem, but also give him a stable job.

Why not?
"The pigs are easy to deal with. We can collect them from our village and other villages!" Su Bingyi thought it could be done, and then frowned and said, "It's just that the business paperwork may be a bit difficult!"

"I can do it. Brother Su, since you came up with this idea, half of the profit of the shop will be yours." Wang Erniu didn't give Su Bing a chance to refuse, "That's it!" Wang Erniu said in his early years Er Niu often sent deer and roe deer to Master's family.

Although I’m not very familiar with him, I still have connections!
It's easy to get the paperwork sorted out with a little bit of preparation.

Seeing that Wang Erniu really wanted him to join the gang, Su Bing took out the 50 taels of silver notes in his arms.

"Brother Erniu, you take the money. If you don't take it, forget it! And it doesn't have to be [-]-[-], eight-two, eight for you, two for me. If this shop opens, I won't care about it, I will only take the dividends!"

"Okay!" Wang Erniu didn't show any pretense and accepted it directly.

He also took out a pheasant and two hares from the kitchen.

"Brother Su, take it back and eat it!"

Su Bing was not polite, "Okay, come to the house for a drink another day."

The drizzle began to fall again.

People in every household in the village are doing odd jobs in the house.

No one was walking around on the road.

Liu Xia held an oil umbrella, and Su Bing next to her exposed most of her body.

The small oil umbrella made Su Bing look extra big, and rain would wet his clothes from time to time.

"Madam, those 50 taels were taken from Wang Mazi!"

What he means is that he did not hide the money.

Seeing that Liu Xia still didn't speak, he stretched out his hand pitifully, "Madam, look, Wang Mazi is so thick-skinned, my hand hurts from being beaten!"

Liu Xia paused for a moment and then moved forward. The small oil-paper umbrella moved a little towards Su Bing.

She was afraid of Wang Mazi's revenge later, "Did Wang Mazi recognize you?"

"No, they are all blindfolded!"

After speaking, the two of them were speechless, and Su Bing felt uncomfortable.

"Madam, actually the girl I secretly kissed was you..." The tips of his ears turned red, "The first time my father sent me to your house to study, I saw you sleeping alone against a big tree. I didn’t think much about it at the time, I just thought that the little girl’s face was so fair!”

His heart beat like thunder when he secretly kissed her.

Just as he thought, it was really soft and tender.

Liu Xia recalled that such a thing really happened.

I remember that when she first woke up, she saw the little boy standing there with a red face and not saying a word.

Xiao Liuxia stood up arrogantly, "Who are you? Why are you at my house!"

"I am Su Bing, come... come to study..."

"Why is your face so red? Have you done something wrong?"

Xiao Liuxia approached Xiao Su Bing step by step.

Little Su Bing kept retreating and leaned against the wall.

"No……"

Originally, Su Bing didn't want to talk about this matter. It was the first time he learned to tell lies!

Unexpectedly, it was turned out obediently.

Liu Xia pressed Su Bing step by step, just like she did when she was a child, and she smiled brightly.

"You secretly kissed a girl when you were eight years old. Who else have you secretly kissed?"

"From beginning to end, it's you alone!" Su Bing said softly with love in his eyes.
