happy fisherman

Chapter 60 Bai Daluo Suspicion
60
Bai Dinglang picked up three pieces of silver from the bed and handed them to Bai Beibei, saying: "Beibei, your mother made the lunch and tea, give these three taels of silver to your mother."

Bo Beibei thought for a while, but instead of accepting the money, he told them about the shipbuilding.

"You asked Lao Qin to build a boat?" The Bo Dinghai brothers exclaimed in shock, "Why didn't you tell us about such a big thing?"

"Uncle, Uncle, if I told you in advance that I want to build a ship, would you agree?" Bo Beibei asked back.

The two brothers looked at each other and fell silent.

Bei Bei was right, if she had told them in advance that she wanted to build a ship, they would have stopped her.

"Uncle, Uncle, I asked Master Qin to build the boat specially for tourists. It will definitely be more comfortable than taking a fishing boat, and it can also avoid the wind and rain. I have already thought about it. At that time, I planned to price the boat at ten taels of silver per day, plus meals, and earn back the money for building the boat in a few days."

And the most important thing that Bo Beibei didn't say was that the boat she ordered was bigger than a fishing boat, and there were three small rooms specially set up for reading.

Bai Dinghai opened his mouth, and wanted to say whether the price of twelve taels a day was too high, but then thought of what Bai Dinglang and his son said just now, and swallowed the words back.

"Hey, it's a pity that I can't help you now." Bai Dinghai finally sighed.

"By the way, uncle, I bought some medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing stasis. It may be useful for your legs. I will boil it for you now." Beibei decided to use his own method.

She bought those medical books today, on the one hand, to settle accounts with Lao You, and on the other hand, to find out a way to treat her uncle's legs.

In this dynasty with backward medical technology, she can only treat her uncle as a guinea pig and try every treatment method to know if it works.

If Bo Dinghai had just woken up after being injured, he would definitely stop Bai Beibei, but now he also really wants to go out with everyone to make money, so deep down in his heart he still hopes that Bai Beibei's medicine will work.

The days when there is money to be made go by quickly, and in the blink of an eye it is time to pay the fishing tax again.

The night before the fish market, the whole family gathered around the table with oil lamps on. Bai Manchuan took out all the money he had earned in the past few days, and counted it. The boat rent plus rewards totaled 49 taels of silver.

Mancang looked at a table of white money, swallowed, and asked, "Brother, how many eggs can you buy with so much money?"

His favorite food now is the egg noodle cake made by his mother.

"Hehe, I can buy a lot of eggs!" Bai Manchuan smiled and patted his younger brother's head. It's great that younger siblings don't have to suffer with him anymore!
"Brother, what are you going to do with the money?" Bo Beibei asked.

My brother must have something to talk about when he called the whole family together so cautiously.

"Mother, Beibei, Brother Manfeng and I earned the money together, so I want to give half of the money to Brother Manfeng, do you think so?" Bai Manchuan asked, but he already had an idea in his heart.

Of course, Feng agreed with his son's decision: "Alright, your uncle's boat is gone, and tomorrow is the day to pay the fishing tax. Now you can divide the money and send it to them."

"Okay, here are 49 taels, let's share 25 taels with Brother Manfeng." Bai Manchuan counted and counted the money, and finally got it right.

"Wait, the tea shed has earned more than 30 taels these days. Your eldest aunt and second aunt are here to help, and I have to give them points too." Feng said.

"Mother, let's forget about the money earned from the tea shed. The second uncle said a few days ago that he would give you some money. Even if you send the money to the first aunt and the second aunt, they will not accept it." Bai Beibei said .

In the past, the uncles and uncles would not take advantage of them even if they earned hundreds of pennies a month. Now that they earn a few taels of silver a day, they will definitely not share the money earned by the tea shed.

It has to be said that Bo Beibei understood the temperament of Bo Dinghai and the others too thoroughly. When Bai Manchuan sent over 25 taels of silver, they refused to accept all of them. They only asked for ten taels of silver. Yun accepted the money.

After paying the fishing tax the next day, several young people in the village caught up with Baiman's boat.

"Full boat, why didn't you and your uncle's family come to sell fish at the fish market yesterday?"

Bai Manchuan smiled: "We didn't go to sea, and we didn't have any fish to sell."

"You kid can do it. You have money to pay the fishing tax without going to sea, and you can pay it to your uncle and second uncle. It's really amazing!" The young man made a gesture of beating Baimanchuan's chest, his tone extremely envious.

"This kid caught so many rare fish in the sea last time, even if he doesn't go out to sea for a few months, he can still pay the fishing tax, and you will have it." Another boy joked.

Bai Manchuan smiled and did not explain.

It is said that "the speaker has no intention, but the listener intends." The conversation between Bai Manchuan and several young men happened to be heard by Bai Daluo, who came to pay the fishing tax, and remembered it in his heart.

When Bai Daluo returned home, he quietly asked Youshi: "Daughter-in-law, I heard that there are nobles from the county in our village recently, and Feng's even set up a tea shed to greet them. Do you know if their tea shed makes money?"

If Bai Manchuan can give 30 taels of betrothal gift and pay fishing tax to Bai Dinghai and others once he goes out to sea, others believe it, but Bai Daluo does not believe it.

"I'm having a baby at home these days, how do I know what's going on outside? If you want to know, just ask your sister!" Youshi glanced at Bai Daluo disapprovingly. What she hates the most now is the family of Baimanchuan How can I inquire about their family's affairs.

"It's better for me to go and see for myself if I ask that stinky girl who eats inside and outside." When it comes to Bai Yuzhu Bai Daluo, he gets angry.

It is said that the daughter who is married, the water that is poured out, she is elbowed out before she is married, and she doesn't know how to think about her brother and sister-in-law.

"I said, you are full, so why do you care about other people's business?" Youshi glared at his man.

Bai Daluo looked around, and when he saw no one around, he whispered in Youshi's ear: "I think Feng might have made a lot of money by opening that tea shed."

"How is that possible?" You Shi snorted, "A bowl of tea in the town costs only one penny, even if ten customers come to the door a day, it costs ten pennies. The firewood and water cost money. You only earn a few pennies, but you can also earn a lot of money!"

It's no wonder that Youshi's news is blocked, because the men on the beach go to sea almost every day, and the women are busy drying fish, mending nets, and doing housework, so they don't have much time to visit, so not only Youshi, but other people in the village don't know about it either. Bai Manchuan and others chartered the boat.

"You're right, you can't make much money selling tea." Hearing Youshi's analysis, Bai Daluo felt that he was thinking too much.
