A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Whose child would go out with so much money? the uncle thought to himself.

"I have thirty-one seashells here. The big ones cost three cents, and the small ones cost two cents. I'll give you a discount if you're a regular customer. If you want all of them, it'll be seventy cents."

This time Huang Haolin was not vague at all. He counted out seventy copper coins and gave them to the stall owner.

The stall owner was a little surprised. Why was this kid so happy today? He looked at him and although he was wearing a face towel, he could also feel Huang Mulin's joy.

Maybe it’s because I love my sister.

He is a good brother.

Huang Mulin didn't care about anything now and looked carefully. This time, there were actually nine seashells that were glowing.

"How are you going to take these away?"

"Uncle, could you please just give us the leaves?"

"it is good."

"Uncle, do you often catch seashells?"

"I don't come across them often." The stall owner replied while packing the seashells.

"I know a place. Every time I go out to sea, I try my luck there. I can probably catch fish five or six times a year, usually no more than 20. I caught a lot of them both times, and you happened to catch them both times. You are so lucky."

Huang Mulin thought that the place the stall owner was talking about should be close to the shallows, as pearl oysters generally live on shallow rocks and coral reefs.

Maybe she also has the physique of a koi fish? She encountered it twice.

Huang Mulin thought happily.

When the two of them carried a large bag of seashells back to the stall, Huang Bo was dumbfounded.

Is this...something good again?

Seeing the little girl so excited that she wanted to run back to the embroidery shop immediately, Huang Bo also guessed it.

After instructing his sons to watch over the stall, Huang Bo picked up the girl in one hand, picked up the seashells in the other, and hurried to the embroidery shop.

Yang Lijun was flipping through the accounts out of boredom.

Life is so boring without my daughter around.

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Huang Bo carrying his little girl into the lobby, carrying a bag of something he didn't know what it was.

There is a strong smell of sea.

"Sister Yang." Because Yang Lijun was older than Huang Bo and his wife, Huang Bo and He Hui Niang both called her Sister Yang.

"What's going on?"

"Mumu and Lao Er went to the dock to buy some seashells. I was afraid she would suffocate, so I quickly brought her back and found a bucket to put her in to keep her."

There are still a few guys in the lobby, so we can't let the news leak out.

Yang Lijun thought about it and vaguely understood.

Huang Bo went to the backyard, dropped off his daughter and Haibei and left, leaving Huang Mulin and Yang Lijun staring at each other.

"Tell me?"

Huang Mulin chuckled and pointed at the seashell.

"bead."

"Really?"

"Uh-huh."

The mother and daughter took the things to the kitchen and fetched a bucket of water. Yang Lijun found a small knife and pried open the seashell along the edges.

It's really convenient. I'll have a knife like this at home in the future, Huang Mulin thought.

Yang Lijun pried open all the nine seashells that Huang Mulin had specially picked out.

Sure enough, the product is available.

Two black pearls, seven golden pearls, and thirty-three white pearls.

The black pearls and white pearls are about the same size, but the golden pearls are slightly larger this time than last time.

However, two golden pearls and nine white pearls are of poor quality, with a bumpy surface and not round.

The two black pearls were produced from a seashell, and the gold and white ones were mixed together and dug out.

"Mom, we're rich!"

Huang Mulin suppressed his cheers.

Yang Lijun was also a little excited, as this was her first time digging pearls with her own hands.

"Keep the black pearls, and I'll sell the others."

"Let's sell them all. We are short of money."

Yang Lijun glared at her and said, "Even if you don't sell the black pearl, the others can be sold for several thousand taels, enough for you to build a house and a workshop."

Huang Mulin secretly calculated that this batch of pearls could be sold for about three thousand taels, plus the silver he had on hand, he could get about four thousand taels.

However, she thought that this money might not be enough considering the construction materials and furniture.

Huang Mulin thought about it for a while and said to Yang Lijun, "Mother, I still want to sell the black pearl. The higher the price, the better."

Seeing that Yang Lijun was still about to refuse, she quickly explained: "I want to use nanmu for the eaves columns, middle columns, and mountain columns of the house and workshop. I estimate that it will take a lot of wood, and the price of a single piece of nanmu is not cheap. In addition, I also want to use good wood to make the bed and cabinets at home."

"Mother knows that wood that lasts for a hundred years is very expensive~"

When Yang Lijun heard this, she also frowned.

Although the house she lived in in the capital before was ready-made, if you calculate its value, excluding the location issue, the total construction cost alone is estimated to be hundreds of thousands of silver taels.

Of course, it is much larger than the two-courtyard courtyard that Huang Mulin wants to build.

"Mother, I still need your help to find these materials."

Huang Mulin came forward with a smile and massaged Yang Lijun's arm.

This is so clever.

Yang Lijun glared at her.

"Sell these two black pearls, and I'll just keep the big one."

Huang Mulin continued his efforts.

Yang Lijun hesitated for a long time before nodding.

She could come up with all the money, but her daughter had her own rules, so she couldn't interfere too much.

"If you want a higher price, you have to sell it on the black market. Black pearls are rare, so they can probably be sold for quite a bit of money. I'll arrange it for you later."

"Thank you, mother~"

After getting Yang Lijun's confirmation, Huang Mulin felt relieved to go about other things.

She now needs to make good use of her time to draw more design drawings for beds, cabinets, and sofas, mark all the details clearly, and find some time to visit her uncle at her maternal grandparents' house.

I haven't seen my grandparents for a long time.

While Huang Mulin was writing and drawing, He Huiniang took Huang Qilin and Huang Xilin to measure the newly purchased wasteland.

According to Huang Mulin's idea, she wanted to build a two-in-one courtyard vertically from the foot of the mountain towards the village entrance, including a main house, three east wing rooms, three west wing rooms, a back house, a warehouse, a utility room, a kitchen, a servant's room, etc. The vertical length is about 160 meters and the horizontal width is about 50 meters.

The workshop next door is fifty meters long and horizontally, and is designed into two large and two small areas. One is used for processing and making fermented bean curd, one is used for storage in the warehouse, one is used for producing tofu, cleaning utensils, grinding beans, etc., and one is used as a living courtyard.

There is also Yang Lijun’s house.

After counting, it turns out that almost all of the 21.3 mu of land I bought has been used.

He Huiniang, her two children and her three sons walked the route roughly. Huang Xilin recorded the data of the length, width and terrain and waited for his younger sister to come back in the evening to give it to her.

"Mom, our future new home will be so big." Huang Qilin muttered.

"Your sister is a person with ideas."

He Hui Niang couldn't help but sigh that it had only been a short time and the family had changed so dramatically.

Of course, everything is for the better.

"When you go to school and achieve success, the burden of the family will be shared by you."

"Got it, mother."

The two brothers responded in unison.
