After being reborn, the young master returned to his village and led his wife and daughters to prosp

The iron scale creaked and made a sound. As Lin Fan continued to add weights and adjust the scale, the final result was 28 jin and 4 liang!

Lin Fan pulled out a wad of cash from his pocket and looked at Aunt Wang with a smile: "Aunt Wang, this is 28.4 jin, 5 mao per jin, which is 14.2 yuan in total. Here's 14.5 yuan for you, please keep it!"

After saying that, Lin Fan folded a ten-yuan note, two two-yuan notes, and a fifty-cent note and handed them to Aunt Wang.

When Aunt Wang took the money, her hands were trembling and her face was flushed with excitement.

Fourteen yuan! These things that nobody wants in the river can actually be sold for money, and for such a large sum!

Her husband works odd jobs all day and earns less than half of that!

Since that's the case, why bother going out to do odd jobs anymore? Just stay on the riverbank and collect snails every day!

"Oh, it's my turn! It's my turn next!"

"Let me go first, let me go first, Lin family boy, I have a lot, at least thirty pounds, weigh mine first!"

"Don't rush, don't rush, I was here first, weigh mine first!"

……

When the other villagers saw the fourteen yuan in Aunt Wang's hand, their eyes turned red with envy.

Before coming, they were wondering to themselves, "With so many people coming to sell snails, will Lin Fan buy them all? Or what if Lin Fan can't come up with that much cash? Wouldn't all their hard work be for nothing?"

Now, with real money right in front of him, looking at the bulging bag of loose change in Lin Fan's arms, it must be at least a thousand or eight hundred yuan. That's enough to collect as many snails as he wants!

Seeing the villagers pushing forward with red eyes, Lin Fan raised his hand and shouted, "Don't rush, don't rush, I'll take all the snails you have, as many as you have."

"It's just a matter of sooner or later. You won't be shortchanged. Even if it's a little later, we won't lower the price for you. Line up and come one by one!"

Under Lin Fan's organization, the villagers managed to form a line in the courtyard.

Moreover, each of them kept a close eye on the container holding the snails beside them, afraid that someone might accidentally steal a pound or two and take less money.

"Here you go, Uncle Wu, this is yours, twelve yuan and sixty cents!"

“Uncle Chen, many of these snails of yours are unusable. Did everyone see them? The ones that are big are a different variety, not the snails I need. I won’t accept them either. The ones that are pointed and thin are the same.”

"Uncle Chen, there are too many people. Please pick out the unwanted items and weigh them again!"

"Here you go, Uncle Li, this is yours, ten yuan and seven mao. I've already given you a two-yuan discount, since you have a lot of unusable stuff in here too!"

……

Since it was the first transaction and the first time everyone had ever thought about or touched something like this, it was inevitable that some items would be unusable, but Lin Fan insisted on strict quality control.

After all, quality is the key to ensuring long-term cooperation with the other party. If the quality of the goods brought is not good, the other party will definitely replace you after a few collaborations.

Upon hearing this, the villagers craned their necks, carefully examining these potential money-making opportunities.

For a time, the courtyard was bustling with activity.

I was busy until eight or nine o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun had completely set, before I finally finished weighing all the snails.

At the same time, Lin Fan's ledger was also filled with numbers.

"Dad, brother-in-law, fill the jar with water first. As usual, let them purge the sand all night, then we'll sell it tomorrow."

"Big sister, Mom, tidy up the yard, I need to do the final accounting!"

Looking at the numerous snails densely packed in the several large water vats, the whole family was quite excited.

These little trinkets might sell for a dollar a pound, but who knows how much they could fetch with so many? Right now, we're just waiting for Lin Fan to compile the results.

A moment later, Lin Fan checked all the numbers several times and finally got the final result.

He was breathing heavily as he stared at the notebook in his hand, grinning as he said, "More than 847 jin!"

"We gave the villagers over 420 yuan, which is fair!"

Upon hearing this number, Zhang Weihao and the others felt as if a huge pie had fallen into their laps.

It weighs over 800 jin (approximately 400 kg).

Good heavens! One pound can sell for 1.7 yuan, and with over 800 pounds, that's more than 1,000 yuan.

Even after deducting the costs paid to the villagers, they can still earn close to a thousand yuan.

One day!

This lasted an entire day, and the key point is that they did almost nothing all day; they simply waited for the money to be delivered to their door.

Earning so much money in just one day is something they wouldn't even dare to dream of doing normally.

After all, in an era when the average wage was still in the single digits, it was already quite incredible that the villagers could earn more than ten yuan by selling snails to Lin Fan.

Earning a little over a thousand dollars in one go is not just unbelievable, it's practically a miracle!

For Lin Desheng and his family, who had lived honest and simple lives, this amount was almost enough to make them faint with excitement.

"Dad, Mom, we need to buy a few more jars tomorrow, otherwise we won't have anywhere to put the snails we collect!"

"Brother-in-law, sister, why don't you stay at the old house for now? We'll need more help when things get busy."

"By the way, buy more meat too. We'll be doing a lot of physical labor in the future. Our whole family must eat and drink well and take good care of our health so we can have the strength to earn more money."

Seeing the family completely stunned, Lin Fan smiled and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Lin Desheng grinned from ear to ear: "That's right, the third brother is right, let's buy more meat, then we can eat meat every day from now on!"

This time, Liu Chunlian, who is usually quite frugal, didn't say much, but instead looked happy and agreed!

Xiuying didn't have much of a concept of money and numbers, but seeing the strange expressions on her family's faces, she was also affected by the atmosphere and tilted her head to look at Lin Fan, asking, "Uncle, if we have so much money, can Xiuying go to school?"

Lin Fan bent down and picked Xiuying up, stroking her head as he said, "Yes, of course you can!"

"Not only will Xiuying and Qiao'er go to school, but we'll also build a new house for your other uncle so he can get married!"

"From now on, we'll eat meat every day and wear new clothes every day. Xiuying, is that alright?"

Xiuying pouted and said happily, "Okay, okay! Eat meat! Xiuying loves meat the most!"

"Hahaha!"

The family laughed happily, seemingly forgetting all their troubles at that moment, enveloped only in immense joy.

Of course, Lin Fan didn't forget to share the good news with Lin Shuying.

Lin Shuying was equally speechless upon hearing the number.

Only then did she have a vague idea of ​​what Lin Fan had said that afternoon.

"As this business grows bigger and bigger, I'll need someone to help me..."

Indeed, it took an entire afternoon to work on a few hundred kilograms of snails. What if it were several thousand or tens of thousands of kilograms?

Lin Fan is right. Something seems to be quietly changing in this family, and I need to keep up with him...
