Traveling through the farm, I just want to earn money by farming
Chapter 97 Giving too much
After being busy for so many days, everyone was exhausted. After everyone left, they packed up their things and returned to the village together under the cover of night.
The gentlemen were also very understanding and took two days off, so naturally, they got enough sleep before getting up.
"You two get up, go wash up and eat something, it's all warming in the pot." Seeing the two sisters get up, Tan Yueli hurriedly urged them.
"Good morning, Mom, aunt, and uncle." The two of them responded obediently, said good morning to everyone, and went to wash up and eat.
"Just put your bowls down. I'll wash them without you having to worry." Seeing that they had almost finished eating, Tan Yueya let them rest.
The two were still trying to refuse, but then Tan Yueya came forward and chased them out of the kitchen.
"The village chief came over earlier and said that the village made a lot of money from this spring banquet, so everyone decided to have a banquet together for the whole village." Seeing that they had finished eating, Tan asked them to sit over.
"And the village chief also said that this village banquet is mainly to thank you and our family for being willing to help us make money, so we don't have to worry about anything and just eat and drink the next day."
"Okay, by the way, Mom, the busy farming season is about to begin. I'm thinking of hiring a contractor to demolish the old house and build a new one after this period. It's really crowded now."
Tan paused for a moment before softly saying, "Yes, it's time to build a new house. You're all grown up, and it's not convenient for you to live in one house. Besides, you all still need to go to school. Okay, I'll let your father arrange it when the time comes."
After saying this, Mrs. Tan laughed and cried. A few months ago, she couldn't even get enough to eat, but now she can even think about building a house.
The two of them didn't say anything, just quietly helped Tan with the work.
Minglang arrived around noon and brought a lot of gifts.
"Young Master, you are too polite. Why did you bring so many things? You can't accept them. Take them back quickly." When Chen Changjiang saw so many things, he was not willing to accept them at all.
"Brother Changjiang, you can't take these back. These were given to Qingning and her siblings by Old Madam Xue, my fifth aunt, and Madam Ming yesterday. I have no say in this." After saying that, without waiting for Chen Changjiang's reaction, she asked the maid to move the things into the house.
Chen Changjiang and Tan were both at a loss for a moment. They couldn't stop her, so they went into the house to call Qingning and talked to her again.
Qing Ning thought about it and asked them to accept it, and then asked her parents to arrange a return gift.
"Uncle Xu, thank you for making such a special trip. We brothers and sisters would like to thank you, Uncle Xu. Please also thank the ladies."
Xu Minglang agreed when he heard it, and then said to her: "Wait a minute before eating, and call your family over. I'm here to settle accounts with you today." After that, he walked into the house with a smile and poured a cup of tea very familiarly.
"Young Master, please stay for a meal to save yourself the trouble." After arranging the food, Tan invited Xu Minglang to stay for a meal.
"Okay, Madam Tan, I'm not polite. I treat this place as my own, and I'm going to stay even if you don't invite me."
"Hello, Young Master."
"Hello, Aunt Chen, please take a seat."
The whole family soon arrived, all staring at Xu Minglang. Xu Minglang wanted to hold on a little longer, but seeing everyone's faces full of anticipation, he stopped teasing them.
"Guess how much we earned yesterday?" Xu Minglang looked mysterious, making them nervous.
"Uncle Xu, please stop keeping us in suspense and tell us." Qing Ning was also anxious and urged him hurriedly.
Xu Minglang took out an account book slowly and opened it to show them.
Those who couldn’t read naturally didn’t understand what was going on, but there were quite a few people who could read, and they were so surprised when they saw the numbers that they couldn’t close their mouths.
"Oh my goodness, the net profit is two thousand three hundred and twenty-one taels. Uncle Xu, are you making up the accounts?" Everyone was shocked when they heard the number. It felt like a dream.
Xu Minglang rolled his eyes at Qing Ning when he heard this. "What nonsense is this kid talking about? These are genuine. Besides, I sold all that stuff later, and I'm keeping track of it."
As he said that, he handed the account book over, but Qingning didn't take it.
"Uncle Xu, I believe you. I won't look at this account book."
"According to what we agreed before, excluding the labor costs for toys, the rest will be divided into 40% and 60%. Here is 1,800 taels, take it." He took out the silver note and handed it to Qing Ning.
Qing Ning didn't take it and asked, "Uncle Xu, even if it's so, it shouldn't be 1,800 taels. You gave too much."
Xu Minglang was even happier: "Not much, not much. The extra money is my hard-earned money. And even though you didn't mention the recipes for those dishes, I can't just take them for free. Even this is too little. I'm afraid you'll think I'm taking advantage of you."
"Uncle Xu, this is too formal. I gave it to you without you even mentioning it."
Seeing this, Old Lady Chen and Chen Changjiang and his wife also tried to persuade them, saying that the money was too much. Moreover, the Xu family had made great efforts this time, so how could they take advantage of it?
Seeing this, Xu Minglang slammed the table and made a face that really scared the person.
"If you keep saying that, I'll be furious. Aren't you putting me in an unfair position? You don't understand the market. This recipe sells for a lot of money out there, and I'm getting a huge bargain. Besides, I want to have a long-term partnership with Qing Ning in the future. How can you do this? If this gets out to my Xu family, will my reputation as Xu Minglang be ruined?"
"But, this..." Before Old Lady Chen could finish her words, Xu Minglang continued, "It's settled. If you're any more polite, you'll be treating me like an outsider."
Seeing this, the family looked at Qing Ning again.
Qing Ning didn't say much and accepted the account book and money generously.
"Let's eat. Mr. Yu, Mr. Ma and the others are here too."
After that, everyone left the main room and set up the table.
