Chapter 94 So sweet

Lu Quan took the man in charge of Ye Pier to see the land. Qiu was surrounded by several women and described the farmland he saw over and over again.

Initially, the little carp and the little fish were happy to hear it, but when people asked more questions, they became impatient and simply went to make eel cages under the pergola.

In the shade at the stern of the Lu family's boat, Xiaoqing poured a bowl of hot water, thought about it, and twisted some brown sugar and put it in it.

This brown sugar was given by Aunt Ding last time, and it weighed half a catty.

Mrs. Qiu couldn't bear to eat it, so she gave the brown sugar to Xiaoqing so that the siblings could enjoy it every day.

"Xiao Si drinks water."

Lu Sheige took the bowl and drank it all in one breath: "Thank you, sister, it's so sweet."

Xiaoqing took the bowl with a smile, half-crouched down, and looked sideways at Lu Xiaosi, who was writing and drawing on the board with charcoal.

After more than two months of practice, as long as Lu Xiaoqing is not in a hurry, his speech is no longer the same as before, and his actions are much more generous than before.

Because my life is better than before, I have enough food, I have gained some meat, and I don’t have to run around for a living, my whole body is much fairer, my figure is slim, and I have the softness of a girl.

She is no longer the skinny, shy, shy little girl.

"What are you drawing?" Lu Xiaoqing looked at the messy lines drawn by the singer Lu Xi, and couldn't understand them after looking at them for a long time.

"I'm calculating the interest."

Lu Sheige threw aside the charcoal pen in his hand and reached into the bucket to wash his hands.

Without pen and paper, she could only write and draw on the board and then rinse it off. Although it was troublesome, it saved money.

Interest?

Lu Xiaoqing didn't understand, but Xiao Si often said some strange things, so she was used to it and didn't ask any questions.

Lu Xiuge washed his hands, sat cross-legged opposite Lu Xiaoqing and asked: "Sister, do you want to make money?"

"Make money?"

Lu Xiaoqing's eyes felt slightly lonely, "Shopkeeper Li will return to Yangzhou in a few days, and the eel cage business will be stopped. Where can I make money?"

She enjoyed her life these two months very much. The entire Wild Pier was a lively scene.

Everyone is busy cutting bamboo, cutting bamboo strips, weaving eel cages, and then loading them into ships and shipping them away.

As the boat went away, everyone was given free money and bunches of copper coins.

But now, I heard that the Hongying Army was about to attack, Laifushun Pass was closed, shopkeeper Li was going back to Yangzhou, and he stopped even doing the eel cage business.

The long river embankment and those pergola are still there, but the people under the pergola have lost their vivid facial features in the past.

"The eel cage business can't last forever, we just want to take advantage of it."

Lu Xiangge approached Lu Xiaoqing and lowered his voice: "Sister, do you want to start a business that will last longer?"

At least I can do it for a year or two, and then I can make some money.

Lu Xiaoqing laughed: "Think about it, the eel cage business is pretty good."

At least, you can see money every day, and you can know how many copper coins you earn by weaving an eel cage, how nice it is.

Lu Sheige knew that the eldest sister was not as ambitious as the second sister, and unlike Xiaoyu who had unconditional trust in her, he asked directly: "Just tell me if you want to make money."

This time Lu Xiaoqing answered without hesitation: "I want to."

Who doesn't want to make money? It's great to have money. If you have money, you don't have to go hungry or drink hot water to fill your stomach.

"Then you go and ask the second sister and Xiaoyu to come, and we will make money together." Lu Shege poured the handwashing water from the wooden bucket onto the board of the ship, and washed away the numbers he had just drawn with charcoal.

Soon, Lu Xiaoqing took Xiaoli and Xiaoyu to the stern of the boat.

Lu Xiaoyu ran at the front, looking at Lu Sheige with bright eyes. When he reached Lu Shege's side, he immediately knelt down and asked eagerly: "Xiaosi, are you looking for me?"

Behind her, Lu Xiaoli was still holding a handful of bamboo strips in her hand. The eel cage business was no longer available, and everyone else had given up. She was the only one who insisted on using up the remaining bamboo strips.

"Xiao Si, what do you have to do? Don't delay me in making the eel cage."

Although no one bought the eel cage, she made it and used it to catch fish. When the time comes, she sells it at the dock. Every extra penny is worth it.

Lu Xiaoqing gently pulled Lu Xiaoli and motioned for her to squat down: "Xiaosi said, let's make money together."

"Making money?" Lu Xiaoyu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his voice became much clearer, "Xiao Si, do you want to help us make money?"

Seeing Xiao Si smiling and nodding, Lu Xiaoli threw the eel cage aside and eagerly knelt down in front of Lu Xiange: "Xiao Si, do you have any new ideas?"

Lu Xiaoyu opened his mouth slightly, and after a long time he slowly squatted down beside his sisters, looked at the eldest sister, then at the second sister, and finally slowly laid his eyes on Lu Sheige.

Lu Sheige put on a small face and nodded: "Well, let's take out everyone's private money and see how much capital we have."

"I have two hundred and eighty-six coins," Lu Xiaoyu reported his private money without hesitation: "Where is mom, I'm going to ask mom for it now."

Lu Sheige grabbed Lu Xiaoyu who was about to stand up: "Don't worry, let's see how many eldest and second sisters there are."

"I have more than two taels of silver."

Lu Xiaoqing actually counted how much money he had every day. But he was afraid that he would forget it, so he turned around and went into the cabin, took out a coarse cloth bag containing money, and poured out all the copper coins and silver coins inside:

"I have two taels of silver ingots, which my father gave me in exchange, and thirty-one copper coins."

Everyone's eyes fell on Lu Xiaoli. She took a deep breath, blushed, and took out the money bag from her arms for a long time: "I have twenty-eight cents of silver, plus twenty-two copper coins."

Lu Xiaoyu was young and couldn't weave eel cages, so he could only help cut bamboo strips. He made countless cuts with his little hands. It was already very difficult to save more than two hundred Wen. And Lu Xiaoqing and Lu Xiaoli's money was all

They made money by weaving eel cages and selling them.

The reason why there are more young carps than young ones is because the young carps are brave enough to secretly go to Dongtan to trap eels twice and sell the long fish to get them.

Later, because Mrs. Qiu was worried and careful, she didn't fish it out.

However, even so, she is still the richest among the sisters.

"Then just one person and two taels, and the four of us will work together to make a deal."

Hearing what Lu Xiaosi said, Xiaoyu became anxious: "I, I don't have two ounces."

Lu Sheige took out his money bag: "I'll lend it to you, and you'll pay me back after you earn it."

"Why."

Lu Xiaoyu responded loudly and promised Lu Xiaosi, "When the time comes, I will give you 10% of the money you earn."

Aunt Ding and Shopkeeper Li can both distribute profits to the family, so she can do the same.

"OK."

Lu Xiangge simply said, "Let's do this for now. I'll think about what we can do with eight taels of silver."

The three sisters gathered all the money in front of Lu Shege and looked at her expectantly.

Lu Xiaoli asked calmly: "Xiaosi, do you really have a way to make money?"

"Um."

Lu Sheige weighed the money in his hand and said, "As long as you believe in me, I guarantee that you can make a lot of money by following me."

Lu Xiaoqing and Lu Xiaoyu looked forward to it, but Lu Xiaoli couldn't hold back and turned his head.

Xiao Si can indeed make money, but her bragging skills are even better!
