After she became the brother of the male protagonist in the imperial examination, she became the spo

It was not until the evening that Lin Daniu and Guangdan had time to care about Lin Xiaoniu's sales.

"Brother, what's going on?" Guangdan pulled his elder brother's arm and asked curiously.

Looking at my elder brother's weathered face and then looking at his full spirit, I feel sad and happy at the same time.

"It's pretty good. My uncle said I got the hang of it pretty quickly!" Gouwei said with a look of excitement on his face.

"I see that there aren't many goods in the warehouse. It seems you can go back early to celebrate the New Year." Guangdan joked with a smile.

"Hahaha, that's right. There are even more people here in the twelfth lunar month! And our prices are not expensive." Gouwei said with some pride.

Seeing his elder brother like this, Guangdan suddenly asked, "Brother, will you still make brushes in the future?"

"Of course I have to. Business will be better during the holidays. I still have to make brushes during the weekdays. I have time!" Gouwei seemed to be worried that Guangdan would suddenly stop him from making brushes, and his face suddenly became anxious.

"Oh, it's okay. I was just thinking that if you like selling things, then we don't have to make brushes. After all, we can't make much money from this thing." Guangdan started to test it directly.

"Nonsense, why do you think like that? I can do it! Although writing brushes don't make as much money as selling goods, it's still money!" Gouwei disagreed.

After understanding the eldest brother's attitude, Guangdan did not continue, but continued to ask about selling goods in the county town.

The next day, Guangdan and his son set out for Linjia Village at dawn. They had no time to stay in Lijia Village.

Laba Festival is coming soon, and there are a lot of things to do at home!

Of course, this is talking about Lin Daniu. As for Guangdan, he now has only one thing left to do, which is to settle the accounts on the poultry side.

Everyone at home is still waiting for him!

On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Erya pickled a jar of salted duck eggs and went to the town market to sell thirty eggs and six chickens.

When I came back in the afternoon, Guangdan and I started to sort out the money we earned from poultry in the past year.

Guangdan's account book records the money he paid, while Erya's account book records the money earned from selling eggs, chickens and ducks.

At this point I must say that the six ducks sent to Lijia Village were also paid for. Brothers should settle accounts clearly, not to mention that they are uncle and nephew.

So the account was very clear. After the two checked the accounts, they were a little surprised at the income.

Ever since the chicks at home grew up and started laying eggs, at Guangdan's instruction, although the eggs at home are also sold, they are basically fed to the children and adults at home every day, so at least some of these eggs go into everyone's stomachs.

The remaining eggs not only offset the cost of raising chickens, but also made a profit.

Of course, Erya and the others were very tired during this process. They had to prepare chicken and duck food every day. Goumao and the others also had to go to the streams and ditches to find snails and dig earthworms, which were all extra meals.

In this way, after deducting the ones that died accidentally and those that were sold, the final profit from the poultry was more than 6 yuan.

Not only Arya, but even Guangdan found this number incredible.

"This is the money we earned now. We have only sold a small part of it. Most of it is still in the backyard. What will happen if we sell all of it?" Erya said in shock.

"No, second sister, look, you have packed several wooden boxes full of money, why are you so surprised?"

Guangdan felt that his second sister was somewhat confused. All the money was in Erya's hands, but she was more surprised than himself?

"I know a lot, but not this much! Besides, I don't dare to count the money normally!" He then started to chuckle happily.

"If raising chickens and ducks is so profitable, why don't the villagers raise them?" Guangdan asked a soul-searching question.

Don’t think that six taels of silver may not seem like a lot, but how many six taels of silver can a farmer earn in a whole year?

This really puzzled Guangdan, so he just started asking.

"You don't know this, right? Our Linjia Village is on the edge of a mountain. Why do you think people don't raise too many chickens? Because wild dogs and weasels will come and bite them. Some time ago, several chickens were bitten to death."

Erya explained patiently.

"Then why is it our family?" Guangdan felt like he knew the truth, but he still asked.

"Because of Dashun. Dashun is watching us every day, so we have to give Dashun more bones to chew on!!" Arya's face was full of kindness when she talked about Dashun.

"No, then why didn't my family remind me when I first said I wanted to raise these?"

Guangdan felt that he was so careless that he didn't even consider such an important factor as the wild animals in the mountains! And why didn't Grandpa and the others say anything and support him without thinking?

"Who knows? We just spoil you! Look at what your family objects to when you do something. I think if you just say you want to tear down the house, grandpa will agree." Arya said while rolling her eyes.

After hearing this, Guangdan had no choice but to rub his nose and immediately try to get back to the topic.

The two began to distribute the money as they had agreed before. In addition to Erya, there were also younger sister Taohua, eldest brother, Goumao, Goudan, and even Yaya. Everyone got a share according to how much work they did.

Of course, this is more or less up to Arya, after all, Arya is the poultry manager.

Guangdan took two hundred dollars directly and let Erya divide the rest. Seeing Erya's happy look, he couldn't help but smiled and said:

"Second sister, I'm saving these two hundred bucks for your dowry. I'll save some for you every year next year and the year after next."

After saying that, he couldn't help but burst into laughter, making Erya blush.

Although these two hundred dollars may not seem like much, it is just the beginning. There is more to come, but I just can’t talk about it right now.

Everyone who received the money in the evening was particularly happy, especially Yaya and Goumao, who had no pocket money at home.

Even though Uncle and Auntie were already selling braised food in the county town, they still didn't have the habit of giving Goumao pocket money. After all, in their opinion, this kid had no place to spend money at home.

It’s hard to say about other families, but there’s really no need for the Lin family.

Because Lin Xiaoniu used to be a peddler, if you want to eat some snacks, just try your best to please Lin Xiaoniu.

Then there is Guangdan at home who loves shopping, which results in the Lin family having no pocket money.

Goudan was different because he had some small change on him, but it was only a few dozen coins, and he only needed it to buy writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone.

Erya divided the four strings of money in her hand into two parts. She and her younger sister took one and a half strings each, and the remaining one string of money was divided among Gouwei, Goumao, Goudan and Yaya.

Here we have to talk about Gouwei. In the entire poultry farming process, the thing that the eldest brother does most is cleaning the pen, but this is also done in turns with Erya, so Erya thinks that this division is very reasonable for her.
