    After filling his stomach, Liu Dahu asked about the marriage in detail. The Liu family and his wife had to come with him one by one. After hearing this, Liu Dahu said: "Although it is a good marriage that fell from the sky, the Zhou family is so rich and noble.  Mingwei's marriage will inevitably make others look down upon her, saying that our family is trying to reach a higher level, but rather than falling behind on this excuse in the future, it would be better to make some calculations early on."

    Mrs. Liu also sighed and said: "I am also worried here. I am thinking that by the time Mingwei gets married, it will be four or five years later and the life will be comfortable. It's just that you know the situation at home. You can count on it."  Those few acres of land will only starve to death, so how can we think of anything else."

    Liu Dahu pondered for a while and then said: "If my sister and brother-in-law are really smart, I have a ready-made business here, and I might be able to make some money."

    Su Shanchang asked hurriedly: "What kind of business do you want to make a living? Why don't you let me follow you to run leather goods?" Liu Dahu shook his head: "You can only see profits in the business of selling leather goods in autumn. Nowadays, those who wear fur clothes are all those rich and powerful.  It is no longer easy for ordinary poor families to have enough to eat. Wherever there is spare money, even wealthy families will not buy more until autumn. Those hunters who have obtained good furs will also wait in their hands.  If the market is good, we won¡¯t sell it at this time.¡±

    Mrs. Liu nodded: "But, I forgot to ask you. You were at home for the first half of the year, so why did you come out before the first month of this year?" Liu Dahu said, "But we have to start talking about this from the beginning of the year.  Years ago I got some good furs and wanted to sell them at a good price, so I went to Beijing along the way. I didn't want to be blocked by the snow on the road, so I found a shop to stay. Just then I met a businessman who was traveling south.  He took a piece of leather from me, I gave him a fair price, and he treated me to a drink. When he got drunk, he told me how much money you could make from this business, and you had to run around all over the place.  If you bring the goods from the south to the north, I guarantee you can make this amount in a year." He raised a finger.

    Su Shanchang guessed: "One tael, ten taels?" Liu Dahu chuckled: "Brother-in-law is such an honest man, how can I earn more than ten or twenty taels even if I run for a few months?"

    Mrs. Liu said with some disbelief: "Is it possible that I can still make a hundred taels? How can there be such a wealthy business? If there are fools in the world, wouldn't they all do it?" Liu Dahu said: "This is not something ordinary people can do.  Buying and selling, the first thing is so far from north to south, it is inevitable that something will go wrong on the way. The timid person who wants to be safe will not do it. Two or one, traveling all the way, naturally you can't buy only three or five taels of goods, it is not enough.  The cost of carrying a load requires at least dozens of taels of silver, so with these two cases, the number of traders traveling north and south has been reduced by 70% to 80%."

    Mrs. Liu said: "Although this is reasonable, I don't know whether it is true or not. If you are drunk, you may not believe it to be true." Liu Dahu said: "I have also been thinking about this. From then on, I paid close attention to a few walking tours.  Although the businessmen of the North-South goods delivery gang are not very accurate, they can be trusted by looking at the stones. Because they want to try it, they rush out in the first month of the year. This time they will not go to the north, but to the south. For the first time, there is something strange on the road.  , I am worried that I don¡¯t have anyone to accompany me here. If my brother-in-law wants to take this trip with me, maybe if he is lucky, he will be able to make some money back"

    While the three adults were discussing things, Caiwei was practicing Chinese calligraphy on the table under the kang, but she didn't write a few words. She listened to the adults talking with her ears. While listening, she thought, this cheap uncle really has Shen Wansan's mind. At this time, it's really  As the saying goes, the brave will starve to death and the timid will die. At this time, the transportation between the north and the south was not as convenient as in modern times. There was an advantage to the inconvenient transportation. It was cheaper for these businessmen running from the north to the south, and they pushed the goods from the south to the north to sell them.  , and then change the things from the north to the south. After this tossing, the profit will not be small. It is just a problem to get the maximum profit in a short time by pushing something upside down.

    Caiwei was lost in thought, so Liu Dahu reached over and pulled out the half-written paper under her hand. He looked at it again and again, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "I don't think Caiwei, this skinny girl, is a candidate for the No. 1 Scholar exam. This character says  It's really neat. Your brother Da Shuan spent money to go to a private school in the village. His handwriting is as bad as the Taoist priest's ghost paintings. When I told him about it, he shook his head and pretended to be illiterate.  , so I don¡¯t know that he has already written very well. Second girl, you can write a few more good ones for your uncle. I will take them with you when you leave. Go home and embarrass your brother Shuan well and let him take a look.  His sister also didn¡¯t go to private school, so she¡¯s better than him.¡±

    Mrs. Liu smiled and said: "This is all caused by Master Zhou. He taught the second girl to read and write, so the second girl started doing it as a serious matter. The girl's family didn't even touch the needlework she was supposed to learn.  When the girl was as old as she was, she could make shoes for her father. Now the second girl can't twist a needle and just does these useless things all day long. If you ask me, I don't expect her to get the top prize in the exam.  How come you have entered this door when you came back?"

    Liu Dahu said: "Sister, thisBut it's bad. You always stay in the village and don't know what's going on outside. All the rich girls from big families are like boys since they were young. They ask their husbands to study. Although they don't expect to take the imperial examination.  But in order to understand the truth, my brother is not afraid of flashing his words. Who knows what will happen in the future? Maybe our family will become rich in three or two years. Since the second girl likes to study, let her go.  There will be great benefits in not being able to say anything in the future.  "

    Mrs. Liu thought it made sense after hearing this. Moreover, when the master was about to leave last week, he also told her not to waste her cleverness. She even left a few books for Caiwei to read by herself, and told her if she didn't know how to do it.  So I went to ask Feng Xiucai next door.

    After Zhou Boxheng left, the two girls worked harder than before. They kept holding the book day and night, and never stopped reading several big words every day. When Liu was puzzled, she also went over to look through it, only to find that there were densely packed lines.  She didn't recognize any of the characters in the line, so she asked Caiwei: "Do you know all of these?" Caiwei blinked her big eyes and said, "I know about 70% to 80% of them." Ms. Liu was secretly surprised.

    What Caiwei said is really good. Some words are written differently in ancient and modern times. They are new words, but based on the context, you can roughly guess it. Now that Liu heard what her brother said, she really wanted to restrain her mind.  I've been there a lot, but I'm still young anyway. It's not too late to learn needlework in two years. Now I have to worry about how to make money.

    After hearing what the brothers said, the hearts of Mr. and Mrs. Liu became lively. Ms. Liu thought that although her husband was kind-hearted and honest, it would be reassuring if he and his brothers could work together to discuss and take care of each other.

    Su Shanchang also thought it was a way to make money. In the evening, the couple discussed it. Su Shanchang said: "Let's not talk about whether we can make money or not. I thought it would be good to go out with Dahu to see the world, but in this family  I've left it to you to take care of everything, but I'm going to tire you out."

    Hearing her husband's rare and gentle words, Mrs. Liu felt warm in her heart and said, "Our family only has a few acres of land, as well as my mother-in-law and my uncle. I can't be bothered by anything. You can go without worries. Just remember."  , I want to send a message back so that my family won¡¯t worry about it. As for the capital, I¡¯m thinking of sending over the bag of silver left by Zhou Boxheng first and using it as a loan. What do you think?¡±

    Su Shanchang and his wife did not expect Zhou Boxheng to repay the favor. The latter two families had already arranged a marriage, and they would not have anything to do with the Zhou family. However, Zhou Boxheng wanted to help, so before leaving, he stuffed a bag of silver under the Kang mat. When everyone left, Liu  When I was cleaning up the house with my mother-in-law, I saw that there were fifty taels.

    Mrs. Su asked Mrs. Liu to put it away and keep it for waiting for Mingwei to get married. There was nothing she could do to take it out now. She thought that it would be best if she came back with the money. If she really lost the money, she would think of nothing else in the future.  That¡¯s it.

    The couple made a decision and told Mrs. Su the next day. Mrs. Su didn't have any ideas. After all, there weren't many things at home. If her son could go out and do business, it would be a way out, so they agreed.

    Liu Dahu said that it would take half a month to get to the dock from here, and the river would just open by then. He would get on the first boat and go south. He would go early and come back early. Maybe he could make two trips this year.

    After listening to what he said, Mrs. Liu hurriedly packed her husband's luggage, sewed fifty taels of silver into the close-fitting clothes, and told him to be more alert when sleeping.

    It was just dawn on the third day, so they sent the two of them off. The whole family, including the elder and the younger, were sent to the head of the village. They stood on the soil slope at the head of the village, watching the two of them go slowly along the winding country road.  Far.

    It was still in the first month of the year, and it was the coldest time in the morning. The morning light came from the sky and fell on the two people who were drifting away in the distance. Together with the mist that had not yet dissipated on the road, it seemed to have formed frost, until  The sun peeked out, and the two people were no longer visible, and the family turned around. This scene left a deep impression on Caiwei that she will never forget for years to come.

    Caiwei felt that she was useless. Those novels described time-travelers as omnipotent. They could make money and prosper by just pointing out an idea. But when it really happened to herself, Caiwei realized that it was impossible.  , I have been thinking about it for the past few days, but I have not come up with a constructive idea. I can only watch like a bystander.

    Soon the family started to get busy, spring started, and the first crop of winter wheat planted last year began to be moistened, hoeed, fertilized, and watered Because last year's snow fell in time, this year's winter wheat grew very fast.  Wang, Caiwei naturally doesn't understand this, but you can get a glimpse of it by looking at the happy expressions on the faces of her mother and grandmother.

    These things were seriously told to her by her uncle Su Shanxue. Su Shanxue was very strong. Although he was usually naughty, he was unambiguous in his work. The several acres of Su family's land were not far from the village. The family divided the labor and cooperated, so they got twice the result with half the effort.  ,.

    Su Shanxue did the work in the fields, while Mrs. Liu worked on the fields, weeding and other things. All the household affairs were left to Mrs. Su. The needlework was Mingwei's business, and Caiwei was ordered by Mrs. Su to do it.  Some chores like feeding pigs and chickens.

    When it comes to feeding pigs and chickens, Su Caiwei is quite happy to do it. Just after the first lunar month, Su Shanxue asked Su Shanxue to build a pig pen in the west of the yard. As soon as spring started, she bought two piglets and fed them some ash every day.  Pig grass, watching the little piglets eat the grass she fetched every day, growing day by day, Caiwei thought it was very fresh, she really regarded feeding pigs as a pastime, and went to look at the pen every day when she opened her eyes  The pig has grown so much that her sister Mingwei always laughs at her and says, "I'm so greedy. It's only spring, so I'm thinking about eating pork" (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com)Things.
