Chapter 21 Make Money

In the evening, Su Jian was flipping through the agricultural books in her hand, feeling secretly that in this era of farming, there are too few agricultural books, and there is nothing to learn.But firstly, reading is to deal with Annie Huang, so that she won't be suspicious when she knows more in the future; secondly, it is also to pass the time.

The longer she stays here, the more Su Jian likes to keep herself busy, because only in this way can she feel fulfilled, not bored, not lonely.

"Miss, this is the account book after the servants have counted it, please have a look."

Hearing Goose Yellow's voice, Su Jian put down the book in her hand, and took the account book in Goose Yellow's hand. The Goose Yellow characters were ugly, and some words were even replaced by pictures. Looking at her, she smiled.

Ehuang doesn't know what Su Jian is laughing at, after all, in her opinion, Su Jian knows exactly what level she is in writing and reading: "Miss, it was only about ten days before and after you married into the general's mansion, but look at our recent The cost, counting the silver, has already cost 27 taels."

"Ah."

"Miss, your dowry is full of cloth and porcelain. Of course, there are two shops in the county, but the income of the shop is once every six months. We can't get any money for the time being, and our current silver is only 200 yuan. Two. We spent nearly 30 taels of silver in just a dozen days, and we will have to pay the monthly money every month in the future. Our own expenses, more than 100 taels of silver, don’t know if we can support it for half a year.”

Su Jian understood the meaning of Ehuang's words, and she looked at Ehuang with a smile in her eyes: "We, Ehuang, have really made significant progress. In such a short period of time, we actually know how to calculate our money surplus and think about it."

"Miss." Goose Huang saw that Su Jian was not in a hurry, but she was really in a hurry.

"Don't worry, I've thought about what you're thinking about before." Otherwise, she wouldn't be trying to make money while managing the fields.She doesn't do all this for the sake of the people in the General's Mansion, the most important thing is to let her live a better life, and not hesitate to spend money: "No, I'm already thinking of ways to make money."

Goose Huang paused, and then thought of what Su Jian told Zhang Da and the others to sell bean sprouts during the day today: "The slaves gave them a total of ten catties of bean sprouts, and they sold all of them, then we will have nine hundred Wen, but the nine hundred Wen will be returned." It's less than one tael of silver." With this little money, it's not enough to cook some delicious food for Su Jian.

Su Jian opened her mouth and didn't speak. If the four of them sold bean sprouts honestly, she would indeed be able to reap [-] wen a day. Now that the bean sprouts are growing, there will be something to pick almost every day, a few hundred wen a day. A few hundred pennies a day, no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat, and... what if the four people she arranged to sell bean sprouts today surprise her...

After all, who knows?
The next morning.

Because of worry, Ehuang did not fall asleep for a long time, until the sky turned white, she barely fell asleep.But I don't know if it's her illusion, she always feels that she smells a bad smell, is it because she hasn't showered for a long time, or is she farting?But she didn't fart.

Rustling.

There was a sound outside.

Goose Huang suddenly opened his eyes wide and sat up from the bed, it should be her young lady who got up.As Miss's most competent maid, she must go to bed later than Miss and wake up earlier than Miss, and she must learn from Miss to read more and do more things every day.

Xu Qiang and Xiong Xiazi kept looking at the yard from the archway. When they heard the sound of the door opening, they looked in the direction of the door opening almost at the same time.

Goose Huang was looking for Su Jian's figure, and was suddenly surrounded by four people.And these four men are tall and big, with smiles on their faces, especially the way they looked at her, she trembled in her heart, she didn't want to show fear, but her voice trembled a little: "Early in the morning Yes, what a shame it is to come to the yard!"

Xu Qiang and the others wanted to move up, but unexpectedly a pair of big hands separated the distance. He watched Xiong Xiazi walk up to him, completely blocking the goose yellow. He was puzzled, and only listened:
"That's right, it's early in the morning, no matter how decent it is, the stinky man shouldn't smoke the goose yellow girl here."

Xu Qiang was speechless, and looked at Xiazi Xiong with dissatisfaction, "Is Xiazi Xiong a stinky man?"

Xiong Xiazi ignored Xu Qiang, and smiled when he turned to face Huang.

Goose Yellow's eyes widened, and he took a step back indistinctly. Xiong Xiazi's smile was a little creepy, but also a little funny.

"Miss Goose Yellow, is Madam awake? Do you still have yesterday's bean sprouts? Today we are all empty, and we can sell them all." Xiong Xiazi opened his mouth with a wider smile, showing all his teeth.

"..." Goose Huang looked away with difficulty, Xiong Xiazi was already strong and strong, but he was blind in one eye, it was scary to look at, but now he smiled again, his big black face seemed even bigger.

"It can be sold, but Xiong Da, do you think so?"

It was Su Jian's voice.

Hearing Su Jian's voice, Goose Huang quickly ran behind Su Jian as if he was about to receive an amnesty.

Xiong Da, who had been silent all this time, walked up to Su Jian, bowed and said, "Although the little one wants to sell bean sprouts, the farmland on the village is the big deal, so I don't plan to go."

Su Jian nodded, looking at Xiong Da's eyes with satisfaction, and when she looked at Xiong Xiazi and the others again, she saw that Xiong Xiazi corrected his attitude and looked serious, changed his previous teasing, and walked up to her respectfully, offering his respect. On a purse.

Su Jian handed the purse to Ehuang.

Xiong Xiazi glanced at the purse in Goose Yellow's hand, and then reported to Su Jian the situation of selling bean sprouts yesterday: "Madam, the ten catties of bean sprouts you allocated to the four of us yesterday only sold about nine catties, because no one knows about bean sprouts. , and I don’t know how to eat it, so the brothers made a total calculation, according to the bean sprouts that my wife gave us in the morning, and made them according to the gourd. Although the taste is not half of that of the goose yellow girl.”

Xiong Xiazi was talking, thinking about the food yesterday morning, he couldn't help but look at the goose yellow: "But in the end it was sold successfully, and Linhe Restaurant also learned our cooking method, and gave us an extra [-] Wen money, so we sold [-] Wen yesterday."

"It's indeed [-] Wen." Ehuang said.

Su Jian nodded, and looked at Xiong Xiazi's eyes with a flash of meaning: "Is the extra five hundred Wen sold by you together, or by yourself?"

"Xu Qiang sold it."

Su Jian looked at Xu Qiang, Xu Qiang was very cramped and even a little uneasy.

Xu Qiang was really worried. Although he liked money, cooking was equivalent to selling a recipe. The recipe belonged to his wife. He sold it without her consent, so he didn't know...

"Haven't you thought about taking the five hundred wen money for yourself?"

"Subordinates dare not." Xu Qiang panicked.

Su Jian smiled, changed her previous seriousness, counted ten coins from Ehuang's hand, handed them to Xiong Da and others in turn, and counted an extra 250 coins from Ehuang's hand to Xu Qiang .

Xu Qiang was shocked. Looking at the pile of copper coins in his hand, he was at a loss.

Xiong Xiazi and the others were also shocked. Xu Qiang actually has so much money in his hand?
"It's up to you to be able to sell an extra five hundred Wen, but yesterday's bean sprouts were made with goose yellow. If you didn't make goose yellow, you wouldn't be able to learn it. So the five hundred Wen and goose yellow should be divided equally."
