Taking the fifty taels of silver that his father had thrown over him, Wang Chengan walked out of the house holding the big green mule that his father had ridden back.
The morning market in Hangzhou opens very early. There are many traders selling horses and mules, as well as coolies who get up early and wait for work.
Although this is the south, horses are not easy to buy.
But mules and donkeys can still be bought.
"Boss, come and help me. You are a strong boy. Help dad bring all the money into the house. After your sister has prepared breakfast and your brother has bought back the mules and horses, we will leave."
Mrs. Wang waved to the boss, Wang Chengping.
"Here it comes, Dad!"
The boss heard the words and responded, then ran over with a squeak.
He has a lot of strength, so there is no trouble at all in doing this.
If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the wooden box was embedded in the soil and difficult to remove, he would have wanted to get the wooden box out at once.
"Madam, we will live a good life from now on. Maybe it is just like what my sons said, maybe it is my Wang family that has the fortune."
When Mrs. Wang found the money he had accumulated and thought about taking his family away from here soon and letting them settle down in America and take care of the two hundred acres of land, he was in a good mood.
Being a small landowner, you will definitely be like a god on days like this.
Although it is not the Ming Dynasty, it is the same in America.
¡°And I can continue to work with the crown prince, and my family has 200 acres of fertile land to protect.
I can do things with peace of mind without any worries.
If you do well here, you might be able to find a career for your sons.
Although I don¡¯t know whether it¡¯s true or not, it finally gave Mrs. Wang a hope.
The eldest son of the family may not be able to survive, but the second child may still have a chance, right?
The San Francisco side was built, but still lacked a lot of manpower.
When the time comes, I can talk about it shamelessly and see if I can get my second brother a position in San Francisco.
If you can become a member of the Yamen, you can receive a lot of salary.
With this salary plus the income from the family¡¯s 200 acres of fertile land, this life will never be better.
¡°And I still have thousands of taels of silver on hand. Even if I buy a lot of maids and servants in Ming Dynasty, I still can¡¯t spend so much.
At least there will be a lot of money left.
When the time comes, the money will go to San Francisco. After buying the next house, all the rest will be used to buy fertile land.
¡° In this way, our farmland will be more than 200 acres.
Mrs. Wang was standing there, laughing as she thought about it.
Because he can almost see his wonderful life coming soon.
This is what he has always longed for and struggled for.
Originally, he thought he would never have the chance to let his family live such a beautiful life in his life.
But unexpectedly, he, Lao Wang, turned out to be lucky, and he got really lucky when he got old.
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door outside.
Mrs. Wang quickly winked and asked her wife to go over and deal with it.
You know, he has just dug out the silver, and his boss is still there to transport it.
¡°It would be very troublesome if people saw that I have so much money.
"Who is it?"
Mrs. Liu came to the door, but she didn't open the door. Instead, she asked through the door.
"Sister-in-law, it's me, Niu Er."
Niu Er¡¯s voice came from outside.
When he heard it was Niu Er, Mrs. Liu¡¯s brows immediately wrinkled.
To be honest, the residents living nearby don't like this Niu Er very much.
Although Niu Er is still his neighbor, Mr. Liu also avoids Niu Er.
Besides, although the two families have been neighbors for so many years, Mr. Liu has basically never had any dealings with Niu Er. Even the children in the family have not spoken to Niu Er for a few words.
Strictly speaking, they are not familiar with Niu Er at all.
But why did this Niu Er knock on his door so early in the morning today?
Ms. Liu began to murmur in her heart.
"Sister-in-law, open the door. You can't let me stand outside."
Niu Er said outside the door.
Mrs. Liu really didn't want Niu Er to come in, so she replied inside: "It turns out to be Brother Niu Er. If there's anything you can tell me, it's not convenient for me at home now, so my sister-in-law won't open the door to invite you in." Please don¡¯t blame your sister-in-law for not knowing etiquette.¡±
Of course what Ms. Liu said were all excuses. In fact, she didn¡¯t want Niu Er to come in at all.
¡°And it is indeed inconvenient to be at home now. My husband has just dug out some silver. If Niu Er, a rogue, sees this, some trouble will arise.
"Sister-in-law, I have something important to talk to you about when I come here this time. I heard that eldest brother is back?"
Niu Er didn¡¯t take it seriously and continued to talk outside.
At this time, Wang Chengan had stopped carrying the silver, and pressed the water tank on the pit again, then climbed out of the pit and stood beside his father.
"Who is this Niu Er?"
Mrs. Wang frowned slightly as she listened to the questions and answers from her wife and Niu Er.
To be honest, this Niu Er gave him the impression that he had a bit of a skinny face.
¡°If most people were answered like this by their host, they would have just apologized and left.
But this Niu Er not only refused to leave, but shamelessly wanted to come in.
Damn it, what on earth are you doing?
Mrs. Wang felt a little uncomfortable.
"The guy who lives next door to us is just a rogue. He doesn't make a living all day long, he just uses some dirty tricks to get food and drinks."
Wang Chengan obviously doesn¡¯t like Niu Er, especially a rogue like Niu Er.
After hearing his son¡¯s answer, Master Wang felt even more unhappy about Niu Er.
??Just a little brat.
¡°That¡¯s right, Master Wang is still a pirate no matter what.
Although he doesn¡¯t have a very high status next to Liu Da Scar, Liu Da Scar can be regarded as a small boss.
According to this understanding, Master Wang is also the dog-headed military advisor next to the little boss, and he can be regarded as a person of some status.
What's more, now he has registered as a household registration in the Song Dynasty and has become a subject of the Song Dynasty, and he is still working with the crown prince.
Comparing with a little gangster like Niu Er, he is simply incomparable.
"But this was in the Ming Dynasty, and Master Wang didn't want to get angry, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
At this time, Niu Er suddenly shouted: "Sister-in-law, please open the door. Niu Er heard some things said by sister-in-law and eldest brother last night, so he wanted to come and discuss it with sister-in-law and eldest brother. If he doesn't let go, If Niu Er goes in, Niu Er will start shouting outside, and everyone¡¯s faces will look bad.¡±
The threat contained in these words is already very obvious.
What did you hear last night?
"What else could it be? It's just what Master Wang said to his family."
At that moment, the expressions of Master Wang and Mrs. Liu changed immediately.
Only Wang Chengan curled his lips and didn't take it seriously at all, because he was a fool.
¡°I don¡¯t know what Niu Er meant at all.
"Open the door and let him in. I want to see what this guy has to say."
Mrs. Wang twitched her eyes, and then shouted to her wife.
