MTL - Take a Door with You-Chapter 8 Go ahead!
Chapter 8 Rush!
"it is good."
"Brother Dazhi, please."
Cao Zhang listened to his son, and saw that Cao Xin had already agreed, so he followed suit dryly.
Then pay the money and deliver the goods.
Xu Dazhi didn't fool around with regard to the fineness of the copper coins. The full amount of 150 Wen did not play tricks on it.
Cao Zhang counted the money, with a smile on his face, and thanked Xu Dazhi again.
Cao Xin stepped on his feet and asked: "My brother said that there will be more in the future, and there will be pheasants. Will Brother Dazhi take it?"
"receive!"
"Tell your elder brother, I will take as much pheasant and hare as you have."
Xu Dazhi's tone was very loud.
But he does have a market. The wild things that are delivered to the door can be sold for profit, and they can sell Cao Ren's favor, so a fool would not do it.
but.
He looked at Cao Zhang, Cao Xin, mother and son, and couldn't help being curious: "My brother Cao Ren hasn't come back yet?"
"Nope."
"My brother has something to do in the gang, and I have to go out for half a month."
Cao Xin replied honestly.
"Yo, this is a far door."
"All right, let your brother come home for a drink when he comes back."
Xu Dazhi didn’t leave Mrs. Cao Zhang and Cao Xin to eat at home, and Mrs. Cao Zhang didn’t feel like staying here. With nearly two hundred copper coins in his arms, a total of 150 Wen, he just wanted to go home and count the money.
But before Cao Xin left, I would like to ask Xu Dazhi one more thing: "I just heard from Granny Stone in the middle courtyard that my rabbit was stolen. Brother Dazhi has nothing to do these two days, so please help explain. Where did the wild rabbit go to steal it? I will return it every day from now on. I want to give it to you, except where did I catch so many wild rabbits myself."
Cao Xin's face was filled with anger.
"Ha ha!"
"Aunt Zhen is just virtuous, don't talk to her, I'll explain it in the courtyard."
Xu Dazhi responded immediately.
Cao Xin returned to the front yard with Cao Zhang.
…
"Mother! Mother!"
"How! How? How much did you sell for?"
Cao’s house, Cao Xian stood at the door and walked up and down, like ants on a hot pot. When Cao Zhang and Cao Xin came back, he rushed to ask.
"Speak at home."
Ms. Cao and Zhang entered the room, and then poured a large bag of copper coins on the bed, and counted each copper coin carefully.
Cao Xian followed suit.
At last-
"193."
"150 texts."
"Our family sent it!"
Cao Xian smiled crookedly.
The family spent a lot of money this morning, and the money bag was almost bottomed out. This afternoon, she and Cao Zhang were in a daze.
Now that the 150 Wen was received suddenly, the anxiety of the two of them was greatly relieved at once.
"What are you thinking about!"
Cao Xin drew 140 Wen out of 150 Wen, and left only 10 Wen for Cao Zhang: "The 140 Wen is the capital and must be returned to others. The remaining 10 Wen is earned by our family."
150 Wen suddenly dropped to 10 Wen.
The drop is not generally large.
But the joy on the faces of Cao Zhang and Cao Xian did not diminish: "Ten coins are also good!"
In the first half of the month, the eldest brother Cao Ren only got back 10 Wen per day on average.
This time it doubled.
If this business is done every day, the life of the Cao family will be hopeful.
"In the future, there will probably be two hares every day."
Cao Xin estimated the number of hares in the territory, and said to the two.
"Two a day!"
"Twenty Wen a day!"
Cao Xian's eyeballs will glow, and his dark face is also glowing: "It's gone!"
"Boss is not easy!"
Cao Zhang couldn't help wiping away tears, thinking that it was Cao Ren who tried his best to find a way to make money for his family.
Cao Xin didn't explain either.
There is no need for a family to be so finely divided.
He caught a hare from the original fairyland, sold it to Xu Dazhi for 150 coins, kept 10 coins for his family, and took 140 coins for himself, saying it was the capital to buy rabbits for others.
Two a day.
The family earned 20 Wen, and Cao Xin kept 280 Wen for himself.
After half a month like this, he can earn 4,200 Wen, which is exactly 3 taels of silver.
Plus the 50 Wen of my daily [Fortune], and I have to take out 10 Wen every day, falsely claiming that it is the wages paid by the Cai Shui Gang to the elder brother.
In 14 days, there were 560 wen remaining, which was exactly 4 renminbi.
This is the pot of gold.
Wait for the big brother to come back, and then use the money to buy chickens, and the chicken farm in the original fairyland can be opened quickly.
"Good days are coming!"
Cao's confidence was burning.
…
Night falls.
The Cao family was rarely lively and festive.
In the past, I used to worry about my livelihood every day, and the burden of life was on everyone, so I couldn't be happy at all.
Until today.
Although Cao Ren is not around, it is not complete.
But this morning, I hooked up with Da Niang first, and bought a lot of household items, especially the piece of linen. I can cut a few clothes for the family, and I hope that I can get a little sewing and mending work through the network of the first lady or other old aunts and daughter-in-laws in the courtyard. I can see some hope.
Immediately after.
In the evening, Cao Xin brought back a big surprise.
The surprise was finally settled at this time. The income of at least 10 Wen and 20 Wen a day made the smiles on the faces of Cao Zhang and Cao Xian unstoppable.
Even Xiao Caoliang felt something was wrong, he looked at this and that. Seeing the new cloth put aside again, I immediately became happy.
But the good times don't last long—
"I thought about it in the afternoon. If this roll of cloth is used to make clothes for adults, it will be enough for two. But if you make one for the boss, the eldest sister, and you, you can make three. The leftovers are enough to make a pair of shoes for your brother. .”
"Elder sister's body can be worn by both of you no matter how old you are, and the boss's body can also be worn."
"It is said that it is for the boss and eldest sister, but in fact it will be yours from now on."
Cao Zhang ate a few mouthfuls of porridge with wild vegetables and grains, wiped his hands and tore some of the cloth, and made gestures horizontally and vertically. He had already thought about what to do—
Cao Ren is all in one body.
Cao Xian is all in one.
Cao Xin is all in one.
Cao Liang didn’t, just pick up older brothers and sisters’ old clothes in the future.
"Hey!"
"Xiao Qi is blessed, there are three new clothes, do you like it?"
Cao Xian hilariously laughed, she knew the ownership of the new cloth in the afternoon, and when she saw Cao Zhang fooling her younger son, she also teased her younger brother.
"New clothes?"
Cao Liang looked down at his old clothes with a hole on the left and a hole on the right, and then at the new cloth, his face suddenly became brighter, and he nodded at Cao Xian: "I like it!"
Cao Xian felt a little embarrassed by his silly appearance, so he patted Cao Liang's little head with a smile.
She also likes this brother very much.
The family of four happily finished their dinner, and when the sky darkened, they still had more to say.
Sitting outside enjoying the cool air, chatting non-stop.
Cao Xin was blowing the evening breeze and looking at the moon, he was also very happy.
Twenty Wen a day.
A few new clothes.
These have already made the family happy, not because the family members have shallow eye sockets, but because life was too difficult in the past.
Under such an atmosphere, Cao Xin did not take out the rice and charcoal-grilled pork belly that he made last night.
Contentment and happiness.
There are enough surprises today, too much is too much.
If the rice and barbecue were brought out at this time, even if they made excuses, Cao Zhang and Cao Xian would never feel at ease.
In Xijing City, rice now costs 14 renminbi and pork 70 renminbi.
Even if Cao Xin only took out half of what he made last night, it was worth 50 coins.
Eat one-third of the hare for one meal.
Can they feel at ease?
It is better to take it slow first.
Wait for the family to have some surplus money, and take it out from time to time, step by step.
Progress steadily.
Try to keep a low profile.
This is the current purpose of Cao Xin's actions.
As he told his eldest brother Cao Ren, good days are ahead, so there is no rush.
