Chapter 85 You can get as much as you want

Zhou Lingling and Chen returned to their room and told her that she wanted Uncle Daqin to sell fast food at the dock.

Chen sat there and pondered for a moment, then said:

"My dear, I know you have good intentions. You can help your uncle Daqin and let your father's brothers have a good meal. But this matter is simple and complicated at the same time."

Zhou Lingling listened attentively.

Chen said, "You originally hired your Uncle Daqin to run errands in the store for 200 wen a month, and now you want him to go sell food at the dock. Is that still 200 wen a month, or what? You need to explain all this to your Uncle Daqin."

"Your Aunt Fang and Uncle Daqin are both good people. They have helped us a lot over the years. Mother also believes in their character, but even brothers should settle accounts clearly, right? Besides, if you want Erniu to come to the store, you should also see what your Aunt Fang and Uncle Daqin think. What do you think?"

Yes.

How to divide the money.

In fact, Uncle Daqin doesn't need to spend any money. He is only responsible for selling at the dock at noon and in the afternoon, and he also takes care of some miscellaneous tasks in the store when he is free.

Two hundred wen was not too much, but not too little either, not to mention that the whole family could live behind the tavern.

"Mom, you're right. I think if Uncle Daqin is willing to go, he can get 20% of the daily income after deducting the cost, which is about 20 cents."

"I'll ask Aunt Fang about Erniu tomorrow. If they're willing to let him come, then he can come. If not, I'll find someone else."

The mother and daughter agreed, and then went hand in hand to fetch water and wash.

Until she lay in bed, Chen didn't say a word to Zhou Laoer.

As for how he admitted his mistake at night, no one knows. Anyway, the next morning, Chen was in a good mood before going out.

***

Zhou Lingling didn't go to the store so early today.

After being woken up by the noise in the yard in the morning, Zhou Lingling vaguely heard her mother say something to her at the door. She responded in a daze and fell asleep again.

When I woke up again and opened the door, I saw a figure under the tree in the yard.

Zong Zhi, a handsome and elegant young man, raised his cup and looked up at the sky, as bright as a jade tree in the wind...

Since Xiao Yan came to the Zhou family to recuperate, he has been in his room every day and has never come out.

Zhou Lingling was always amazed by his appearance when she saw him, but it was far less than what she saw now, even though he was sitting in a wheelchair...

The man turned around when he heard the voice, his eyes were deep and bright, as if he could see through people's hearts, making people feel awe involuntarily.

"woke up?"

Zhou Lingling had just woken up and her head was still a little confused.

"Um……"

She responded and heard herself recklessly saying, "Mr. Xiao, why didn't I notice last night that you look so good in a wheelchair."

Sure enough, this sentence successfully silenced the other party.

Zhou Lingling also snapped back to her senses, "Um...that's not what I meant..."

Xiao Yan suddenly laughed, "It's okay."

More than a decade ago, he had become accustomed to all kinds of looks and comments from everyone about his appearance.

This girl's eyes are relatively clean, without the filthiness and complexity in those people's eyes, so she doesn't feel that disgusted.

He could even joke, "It's all thanks to this face that Miss Zhou came to my rescue. I can't say I've lost anything."

Zhou Lingling: “…” Why are you bringing up something that’s not related to the topic?

She rolled her eyes silently in her heart, but said, "That's just a coincidence. Master Xiao must have done too many good deeds in his previous life, so he wasn't destined to die."

At this point, Zhou Lingling's eyes flickered, and she said casually as if she didn't care:

"Speaking of coincidences, a table of guests came to the store yesterday and also told me about a coincidence."

"A few days ago, the family of the richest man, Hu, in Ningyuan County, just across the county from Yunshui, was robbed. An entire granary containing 100,000 dan of grain disappeared. Master Xiao, isn't that a coincidence?"

Xiao Yan stared at the little girl in front of him, wondering what she was thinking.

"What's the coincidence?" He said indifferently.

Zhou Lingling smiled. "Of course it's a coincidence. According to the timing, that rich family had just been robbed, and the next night our house was also robbed. Master Xiao, do you think these are the same group of thieves?"

The wealthy businessman named Hu was a big grain merchant. In the original text, he wanted to make a fortune by hoarding grain during the drought. He succeeded in the early stage, but this fat man thought that he would make more money if he waited a little longer, and watched the people starve to death.

Later, sweet potatoes appeared, and he hurriedly suppressed the heroine while selling the food in his hands.

In a word, this fat guy is not a good person.

Although she didn't know why, Zhou Lingling knew that Xiao Yan was short of food.

Otherwise he would not continue to stay in the Zhou family.

"That's something we'll have to ask those thieves."

Xiao Yan still spoke indifferently, as if this matter really had nothing to do with him.

Zhou Lingling smiled and tacitly stopped talking about this topic.

"I just opened a pub at home. There are so many people drinking that it's bound to cause trouble. I want to hire some skilled people to help out, but it's a bit hard to find them in the pawnshop."

The distress on her face was half genuine and half fake.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan was silent for a moment, then hesitantly asked, "Are you willing to recruit some disabled people?"

"Hmm?" Zhou Lingling raised her eyebrows.

"They all have some skills, but they are a bit old, injured, and homeless..."

Before Xiao Yan finished speaking, Zhou Lingling couldn't wait to nod in agreement.

"Yes, yes, yes, I want it."

He has some skills and is old, so isn't that definitely experienced?

"How many people like this do you have? Can you give me eight or ten?" Zhou Lingling looked expectant.

She came here just with this idea, but she didn't expect that the other party could actually help her solve it!

When the time comes, send a few back to Zhoujia Village to help her watch over the land, and leave two in the store, killing two birds with one stone!

Xiao Yan: "...I can give you as many as you want."

Although their Northern Army claimed to have an army of 100,000, there were countless old, weak and wounded among them.

Even if it can only accommodate a few people, it would be great.

Zhou Lingling was so happy that she confidently pushed the wheelchair and took Xiao Yan out.

Zhou Yun, who was feeling dizzy while looking at the large characters on the table in the room, pointed at the door and said hurriedly to Fei Yu who was guarding the window:

"Master! Brother Xiao is out, why don't you go and protect him!"

Ever since accepting the wine from Zhou Lingling, Feiyu has become more and more concerned about Zhou Yun.

Especially after knowing that Zhou Yun’s goal was to become a general.

Feiyu said: "To be a great general, one must be a man of both civil and military talents, and a master of strategic planning."

"From today on, the hours of martial arts training will be doubled. Let's study military tactics while reading..."

Zhou Yun cried loudly, and the daily torture doubled.

So now that I have finally got the chance, I naturally don’t want to let it go.

As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly flashed past the door of the main house and floated out from the courtyard wall in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Yun rubbed his eyes, looked at the wall of their house, and then turned to look at his master.

Fei Yu patted his head lovingly and said, "Don't worry, my dear disciple. Your brother Xiao has someone to protect him."

Zhou Yun: “…”
