Born into a farm family, I became rich by pressuring my parents.

Chapter 14 Deposit
As a native of a farming family, Jiang Mingshun has grown up in a public opinion environment where "you have to buy land when you make money" and "the greatest success in a person's life is to leave more land for future generations." Jiang Mingshun can be said to have a deep love for land.

He was excited about earning 18 taels of silver a month, but he had no sense of reality.

However, when he converted the 18 taels of silver into fields, he felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his mouth.

Bai, who had the experience of fleeing from famine, became even more dependent on the fields. For her, money was far less than the sense of security that the fields could bring her.

Jiang Jinyu saw her parents' eyes were red and looked like they were about to cry, so she hurriedly interrupted: "Dad, don't you have to go to the city every day from now on?"

"No, the pastry shop delivers goods once every three days, and the rouge shop delivers goods once every five days." Jiang Mingshun finally came to his senses when he heard his daughter's voice. He took a few deep breaths to calm down and slowly calmed down.

Jiang Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief. This was much better than going to the city every day. At least they could spend a day making the things and then have them delivered to their door when the time came. But it was much more convenient than having to run around every day.

The sun gradually set in the west, and Jiang Mingshun and Bai finally got over their addiction to counting money.

Bai held the box containing the money and searched around the house, but she couldn't find a suitable place to hide the money.

In the end, I could only put the box in the kang hole.

Jiang Jinyu was ashamed. It seemed that he had to speed up the construction of the house. Otherwise, when the kang was burned in the winter, wouldn't there be no place to put money?

An autumn rain and a cold.

Jiang Jinyu sneezed several times when he got up in the morning.

Bai Shi poured a cup of hot water worriedly: "But did you catch a cold last night?"

In this day and age, it is not a trivial matter for a child to catch a cold. It can be fatal for an adult to catch a cold, let alone a child who is only five or six years old.

Jiang Jinyu is also a little timid. Her family has just made money, and she has not yet lived a good life.

"I borrowed some ginger from the patriarch's house. It rained really hard yesterday. Let's all drink some to get rid of the moisture." Jiang Ming came in through the sliding door with a piece of ginger in his hand.

Bai took the ginger and quickly boiled a pot of ginger water. She poured a large bowl and handed it to Jiang Jinyu.

Jiang Jinyu grimaced: "Mom, can you let it cool down a little before drinking it?" Ginger is inherently spicy, and hot ginger water is even more spicy on the throat.

"No, it's only useful if it's hot. Only by sweating out can you avoid getting sick." Bai Shi said with a tigerish face.

In other matters, she can be called a tolerant and even unprincipled mother. She only pays special attention to the health of her children.

Jiang Jinyu closed her eyes and drank it all in one gulp, "Hiss, dad, remember to buy some brown sugar when you go to town next time." She shuddered hard after drinking.

In fact, she doesn't think brown sugar ginger water is delicious, but compared to pure ginger water, it is simply a fairy water!
Jiang Mingshun touched his daughter's little head lovingly: "Okay, dad will go to the city soon."

Considering that the weather has started to get cooler, Jiang Mingshun finally gave up the idea of ​​saving money to buy paddy fields and planned to spend more money to build a warm brick house as soon as possible.

Rather than buying more land, her daughter is more important.

"Daughter-in-law, please give me two slings of money, and I will go to the brick factory to order the bricks and tiles today." He said to Mr. Bai.

Bai wiped the water on her hands with a rag, opened the box solemnly, and took out two pennies from it. She looked a little worried: "I'm afraid two pennies are not enough?"

Although she had never built a house, in order to marry their third daughter-in-law, the Jiang family not only renovated the entire old house, but also built a new brick house. For this house, Mrs. Liu had no idea. Less fuss.She also calculated the approximate cost of building a house from the few words Liu said when she complained.

Jiang Mingshun took the money and put it in the basket on his back, and nodded: "It is enough to build only one house, but I now think that I will build a house sooner or later, and it will be cheaper to buy more bricks and tiles at once."

He put the basket on his back and prepared to go out now: "So I plan to use all these two coins to pay the deposit."

riverside.

"Brother Mingshun! Are you going to the city to buy things again?" The person who spoke was also a member of the Jiang clan, named Jiang Mingrong. Although the room with Jiang Mingshun was already a little far away, the two of them had often gone in together over the years. I work odd jobs in the city, so my relationship is pretty good.

Jiang Mingshun got on the boat and sat next to him, smiling at him: "Yes, it rained heavily last night? I plan to build the house first."

It's not that he likes to show off, it's just that building a house requires a lot of people and a small number of people. He has to get the news out first before he can find people.

Jiang Mingrong exclaimed: "How long has it been since we have the money to build a house!" He looked at Jiang Mingshun with admiration: "Brother Mingshun, you are really capable."

He didn't ask where the money was earned, but within a few days, almost everyone in the village knew that Jiang Mingshun and his daughter Yu Niang made very beautiful soap and sold it in the city for money.

Some people still don’t believe that making money is such a simple matter?They all find it difficult, how can a little girl make money from her films?
As a result, some people saw Jiang Mingshun carrying a backpack into the city almost every day these days, so some people said that he was making a lot of money.

The thoughtful person even went to the shop to take a look, and sure enough he saw soap with patterns painted on it.

Since they already know that they can make money, naturally some people want to make it and sell it, but it seems that no one in the village has made it yet.

Jiang Mingshun didn't go into the city after getting off the boat. Instead, he went directly to the brick kiln factory in the suburbs outside the city.

He planned to build a main room, a side room, a kitchen room, and a hut this time, a total of four rooms.

After calculating the bricks and tiles he would need, he agreed with the owner of the brick kiln to take a small amount of money as a deposit first, and then pay the balance gradually.

This is nothing new, and the owner agreed immediately.

After paying the deposit, Jiang Mingshun was a little hesitant. He still had a handful of money left. He originally wanted to order the green bricks surrounding the yard.

It's just that the weather changes at any time, and the quilt at home may not be thick enough.

In the end, Jiang Mingshun decided to make the quilt first. His house was surrounded by trees and bamboos, which naturally formed a courtyard. The courtyard wall could be built later.

Instead of going to the cloth shop, he went to the market and bought five kilograms of cotton and a piece of coarse cloth for a total of five hundred coins.

He also spent additional labor costs to find someone who specialized in cotton to make the quilt, so a five-pound quilt cost nearly [-] yuan.

Jiang Mingshun touched the remaining [-] Wen painfully, comforting himself that it was a few hundred Wen cheaper than going directly to the store to buy medicine.

Thinking of his daughter's advice before going out, he found a nearby grocery store and bought some brown sugar for a hundred yuan.

He remembered that he had never been to the old house since he moved out, so he said to the waiter: "Please divide it into two."
