MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 69 hope
Chapter 69 Hope
Yang Shi and Huo Erhuai watched Yang Fu stumble and draw circles on the paper, memorizing words they couldn't understand.
Feeling relieved and feeling useless.
Can't help the child.
"Xi'er, Fu'er said that each family can bring us ten bolts of cloth. Should we buy some more cotton cloth?"
Huo Xi nodded: "This opportunity is rare. Now that we have agreed with everyone, let's use it as much as possible."
"But the family only has eleven taels of silver."
"I still have eleven taels of silver at home? With the forty taels of cotton cloth money, our family has fifty taels of silver?" Yang Fu opened his mouth wide.
His family now not only has a big boat, but also has fifty taels of silver in deposit?
"Shut your mouth. Don't babble around." Yang made a gesture to hit him.
"I can't go anywhere." Yang Fu felt wronged.
Huo Erhuai patted Yang Fu's head: "Our Fu'er is the most protective of the family, and he is not the one who talks about it everywhere."
"Exactly." Yang Fu raised his chin towards his sister.
"Brother-in-law, our family already has so much money." Yang Fu looked at Huo Erhuai with a smile on his face. There is hope for going ashore to buy a field and build a house.
Huo Erhuai wasn't ignorant, but he was taken aback. Do you have so much money at home? Fifty taels of silver? I didn't even dare to think about it in the past.
Huo Xi was a little speechless. After building the house with fifty taels of silver, the fields he bought and the grain he produced were not enough to feed his family.
The more you talk, the more crooked you are.
"Mother, everyone in Taoyedu is willing to help us bring cloth. Looking at the situation, we still have to buy two hundred pieces."
"Two hundred horses? How much money will it cost?" Yang's eyes widened. Two hundred horses, a lot of cloth! Cloth that can last a lifetime.
"It takes eighty taels."
"Eighty taels!" Huo Erhuai hissed.
"Our family doesn't have that much money anymore." We still need to rent a house. Yang is worried.
"And you also mentioned that Huai'an is willing to lend money to everyone to buy local products. Where will the money come from then? You can't let everyone wait until we sell the silk cloth to pay for it?"
Yang Fu glanced at Huo Xi nervously after hearing this. Xi'er is a person with bank notes, how could she not have money. But Xi'er didn't say anything, so he didn't say anything.
Huo Xi raised his eyelids to look at Yang Fu, thought for a while, and said to Mrs. Yang and Huo Erhuai: "Father and mother, when I went to find Guanshi Huo today, I borrowed some money from him."
"You borrowed money from Guanshi Huo?" The husband and wife stared at her blankly. Did this child borrow money from others?
Yang Fu looked at Huo Xi, then turned his head away.
Huo Xi glanced at him leisurely before nodding at Mrs. Yang and Huo Erhuai: "Well, I told him today that I wanted to ship the silk cloth to Huai'an for sale, but I was afraid that there was something that needed to be sorted. I lent me some silver. Enough for us to collect the cloth."
"Is there enough money to go to Huai'an?"
"Enough is enough. Don't worry, Mom."
Huo Erhuai and Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
Guanshi Huo is really a good person. He not only entrusts them with such precious silk cloth, trusts them, but also lends them money, so that they are not afraid of them running away.
What a good man, next time I see him, I must thank him very much.
Yang Fu lowered his head. He is not good at lying, but he listens to Huo Xi.
After the family finished talking about this, they went to bed early thinking that they would go to the city early tomorrow to rent a house.
Taoye Du secretly thought about it, but there were quite a few people.
There are a few companies with some spare money. After hearing Huo Xi's words, they are going to go to the city to look for them, and they will also bring some rare goods from the south to Huai'an to sell.
That's what Mrs. Sun thought. First, she counted the money at home, and figured out what to buy, and she stayed up until very late.
The noise was so loud that Qian Sanduo couldn't sleep, he frowned and drank softly: "Are you still sleeping?"
"You go to bed first."
Qian Sanduo frowned: "With that little money at home, how many times can you still have children? If you want me to say, it's better to help the Huo family bring the goods there, and then borrow some money from his family in Huai'an, so that you can save money." The goods from the north are coming back. There are so many rich people in the capital, are you afraid that the goods from the north will not be sold?"
This woman is good, she wants to save her own boat to bring the goods by herself.
The son wanted to help the Huo family with loading and wanted to stop him. If he hadn't pulled her by the hand, he would have offended everyone.
Mrs. Sun gave him a sideways glance: "Such a good business is in front of us, I'm not reconciled if I don't do something. Besides, Xiaoyu Xiaoxia doesn't want to ask us for money. The two brothers have helped bring the goods, so we can save you money." This boat?"
And what do you fancy at that time, let your son borrow a little more money from the Huo family, and bring the two boats back, isn't it enough to sell?
Sun has his own little abacus.
How could Sanduo Qian not know. I can't say no to her, so I have to let her go. At that time, just look at it yourself, don't offend others.
Uncle Zou, his old wife Tian Shi, and their grandson didn't sleep either.
Tell grandson Zou Sheng: "Sheng'er, grandpa and grandma are old, you will walk around with the Huo family, Yang Fu and Huo Xi more in the future, they have a lot of ideas, and you can open your eyes and save some money for yourself by following them. In the future, I will also start a family and start a business.”
Zou Sheng was shy. After his parents died, he floated on the river with his grandparents since he was a child, and his life was miserable.
I can’t save a few coppers a year. The old and the young also catch less fish than others, and often don’t have enough to eat. More and more silent.
Zou Sheng listened silently, nodded: "Understood, Grandpa."
His grandma, Tian Shi, also told him: "Sheng'er, grandma has no skills. If you spend a lifetime fishing with grandma, you will not be able to land. If you walk around with others, there will be many ways. This time we go to Huai'an, if we can Find some good things and bring them back, and you can earn back your foot money."
"I know milk."
Yu Jiang on the other side is also thinking about it.
He was the only person on his family's boat, and he had few things. When he arrived in Huai'an, he unloaded the grain and could carry a lot of things back on the way back. What are you going to buy back?
What is light and easy to sell, and the profit is big?
If it can be sold for some money when it is transported back, then it will be replaced by a boat like the Huo family's before, which is the kind of fish and shrimp now. At that time, five members of Huo's family could live there, and he took his wife and daughter over. There were only four members in the family, and they could live even more.
Yu Jiang's heart is very hot, and he is going to go to the city to sell the fish tomorrow, and then go around the city to see what is good for sale, and then ask for some news along the way.
The next day, Taoye crossed a group of fishermen and rowed away from the ferry early.
When Huo Xi got up, he gently lifted the bottom plate of his cabin, and took out a one hundred tael silver bill from the box to take with him. After thinking about it, I took all the bank notes with me.
Close the bilge, put the purse in your pocket and put it away.
The family rowed to the outer city ferry. As usual, it was Yang who stayed on the boat with Nian'er.
"Xi'er, where should we rent a house?" Both Yang Fu and Huo Erhuai looked at Huo Xi.
Huo Xi was already thinking about this last night.
The rented house can't be too far away, otherwise Yang's woman will bring a young child, and she won't worry. So she doesn't consider places that are too messy, where shanty houses live together.
I would rather spend more money than rent a better one.
"Father, let's go to Jiangdongmen."
