After Boss Cheng and his men returned to the valley, they couldn't wait to gather on the rocky beach beside the pool.

Wow~

Pour all the copper coins in the bag onto the big stone, making a crisp sound.

"One, two, three, four, five... one hundred."

"One, two, three, four, five... one hundred."

"One, two, three, four, five... one hundred."

"One, two, three, four, five...sixty-three."

When they had counted out a hundred coppers, they strung them together with a rope.

"Wow, I made three hundred and sixty-three coins today."

"I also sold it for 358 coins."

"I sold it for three hundred and eighty coins!"

"......"

Boss Cheng sold it for 360 wen, but it could have been sold for more than 380 wen.

Cheng Laosi picked less, but still sold it for 335 wen.

The two brothers together earned a total of 695 coins today.

"Oh my god, this money came too easily. It's totally free."

"Yes, we used to work very hard for only eleven or twelve cents a day, but the income from selling fish in one day is actually more than what we earn in a month."

"We're rich! We're rich! The fish in our fields are enough for us to sell for a month, so we can earn this much every day!"

"You useless fellow, this is what we call getting rich. Once our brick factory, oil mill, and real estate are all up and running, we will make a fortune every day. Then I will let you see what it means to be truly rich."

Cheng Dafu was working in the fields when he saw these guys coming back from the foot of the mountain from a distance. They did not hurry home but gathered on the rocky beach in a furtive manner and no one knew what they were doing.

Are they discussing how to hide their private money? That won't do. This tendency must be nipped in the bud.

The key point is that it is useless to hide it. Instead of wasting time, you might as well plant two more plots of rapeseed.

I walked quietly behind them and found that they were counting money.

Don’t these guys know that wealth should not be shown to others? After making money, instead of going home quickly to hide and count it secretly, they openly pour piles of coins on the ground.

Although he felt happy watching them counting the money, he had to speak up and suppress them to prevent them from becoming complacent and arrogant.

Cheng Zeli also rushed to the brick factory outside Pingyang County and saw Cheng Laoer talking to a man of similar age as Cheng Laotou.

Cheng Lao Er seemed a little embarrassed and frowned.

"Second brother!"

Cheng Laoer, who was about to politely refuse Zhang Qing, suddenly brightened up his eyes the moment he saw Cheng Zeli.

"Butler Zhang, your request is too high, but I think you might be able to talk to my third brother, he might be able to help you!"

Zhang Qing followed Cheng Laoer's gaze and was stunned when he saw the young man walking towards him against the light.

He couldn't help but rub his eyes, thinking he was hallucinating.

That familiar smiling face did not disappear, but got closer and closer.

He walked towards him slowly with a smile in the sunset, his whole body radiant, like a god.

Time seemed to go back, and he saw the general as a young man.

"Brother! I see you're here. It's almost time to get off work. Let's go home. My sister-in-law loves you so much that she asked me to bring you a lot of things."

Cheng Zeli walked up to Cheng Laoer affectionately, put his arm around his back and was about to leave, not noticing Zhang Qing (Zhang Shizhong's housekeeper) who was staring at him in a daze.

"Wait, Third Brother, I have something else to do. This is Uncle Zhang. He likes the layout of the house we built in the city.

He wants us to build one for him as well, but his family is large, so the house he wants to build is very big.

I was in a dilemma, and you happened to be here. Do you have any ideas? Why don’t you talk to him? "

Then he looked at Zhang Qing and said, "Uncle Zhang, this is my third brother Cheng Zeli. All the houses in the city are designed according to his ideas. Why don't you two talk about it?"

This is a big client, and we can make a lot of money by getting this order.

Cheng Zeli hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Junior Cheng Zeli, greetings Uncle Zhang!"

Zhang Qing finally came to his senses and hurriedly returned the greeting with a look of panic on his face.

"I can't do it, I can't do it!"

The two brothers Cheng Laoer were a little confused and didn't know why Zhang Qing didn't dare to accept the gift from Cheng Laosan.

Cheng Laoer looked at the sky. The sun was about to set. It was already late autumn and it was getting dark quickly.

There were no decent restaurants or taverns in the city after the disaster. After thinking for a moment, he invited him, "Uncle Zhang, if you don't mind, why don't you come back with us to where we live and talk in detail."

"So good!"

How could Zhang Qing not agree? He had something that was a hundred times more important than building a house that he wanted to verify.

Their general has always been chaste and has only one wife, Bai, and no concubines, so this man naturally cannot be the general's illegitimate child.

There are not so many people in the world who look so similar. Even if there are, they must be more or less related by blood.

As the saying goes, nephews resemble their uncles. When Zhang Qing thought of a certain possibility, he felt that his blood was boiling.

He couldn't wait to ask the question that was stuck in his heart.

He followed the Cheng brothers, looking at this and glancing at that.

I didn't pay attention to it just now, but now I realize that the brothers actually look 60% alike.

It’s just that Cheng Laoer is thinner, perhaps because he has been overworked during this period, and due to the wind and sun, his skin color is much darker than Cheng Zeli’s. He hasn’t taken care of his beard for a long time, so it is messy and looks a little sloppy.

Cheng Laoer and Cheng Zeli naturally noticed Zhang Qing's gaze. Although they were a little confused, they felt that there was no malice in his gaze, so they ignored it.

Cheng Laowu was left guarding the carriage. When he saw his two brothers coming, he waved and called out excitedly.

"Second brother! Third brother!"

Cheng Laoer didn't expect that Cheng Laowu had also come. He looked at his lively younger brother and showed a loving smile.

"You naughty boy, why are you here again? Why don't you stay at home and help with the work?"

After saying that, he did not forget to introduce it to Zhang Qing.

"Uncle Zhang, this is my fifth son Cheng Zexin, the youngest brother."

Zhang Qing looked at the young version of the general and was immediately overjoyed. His guess was further confirmed.

"Old Five, do you have five brothers and sisters?"

"My parents only gave birth to five sons, no sisters!"

"Good! Good! Five sons! Your family is really prosperous!"

Zhang Qing's heart was as excited as a pot of boiling water, boiling to the point of overflowing. His face was faintly glowing red, and even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were filled with smiles.

He walked up to Cheng Laowu and touched his head lovingly, his eyes scanning the three brothers again and again.

"Good! Good! Good! You look really good!"

The two brothers Cheng Laoer were frightened by his inexplicable words and meaningful smile and got goosebumps all over their bodies.

"Second brother, what's going on?"

Cheng Laowu felt uneasy when Zhang Ping looked at him. He could not help but shiver. Not knowing what was going on, he stammered to his brother for help.

"Is your mother's name Zhang Xiulan?"
