Bai Shu's words were heard by Bai Wang, the daughter-in-law of Bai Baoshan's family. She covered her mouth and stood at the door laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Bai Baoshan said with a straight face, and then Bai Wangshi rolled his eyes and ran out.

Bai Baoshan sent Baishu out of the house with some regret and sympathy: "Then you hurry up to make money and try to buy this land as soon as possible."

After the two of them left the village chief's house, Brother Chen asked, "Bai Shu, did you earn that fifteen cash by selling fish?"

He knew that Bai Mi didn't have a penny before, and he could earn fifteen pennies in two days, which in his opinion was a huge sum of money, and he was already very envious.

"It's more than fifteen, I earned fifty cash, but I spent the rest of the money." Bai Shu said indifferently.

"Five...fifty or fifty?" Brother Chen's eyes widened, this was more than what he had earned in a few years!He couldn't help saying with admiration: "You are too amazing!"

If he can earn fifty Wen in a few days in the future, then he can buy an acre of land after ten years of saving, and the life of the white millet will not be so difficult, Brother Chen thought.

It's just that Bai Mi spent more than half of the fifty Wen in one day, which is too much to spend!Brother Chen couldn't help but educate Bai Mi again, telling him to save money well and not spend it recklessly.

Bai Shu's left ear went in and out of his right ear, he didn't take Chen Ge'er's words seriously.Then he said to him: "I have to go to the county to do fish selling business tomorrow, and I may need a helper. If you are free, you can come and help me with the work, and I will pay you."

As soon as he heard that there was money to be made, Brother Chen was immediately tempted.His family only has three acres of land and few children, so he has nothing to do, so he asked with some expectation: "I don't know how the salary is calculated?"

"There are few jobs now. If you come to help me once, I will give you two cents to take care of a meal. If there are more things to do in the future, I will give you more money. Do you think it will work?"

"Yes, yes." Brother Chen agreed without hesitation.If he can take two cents to pay for a meal, the tenant farmers in the village are no more than that, but the tenant farmers don't want him as a brother, this is the best job he can find.

Bai Shu did what he said, and it was still early in the morning, so he asked Brother Chen to go home and get a sickle, and went with him to cut bamboo on the back mountain.

Brother Chen put Li'er at home, and the two of them walked up the mountain. They met a few villagers on the way, and several of them smiled and asked, "Bai Mi, I heard that you are going to buy land? When will you buy it?" ?”

Just now at home, Mrs. Bai Wang heard Bai Shu said that she wanted to buy land, so she turned around and went out to gossip everywhere as a joke.

In Baitang Village, nothing spreads as fast as gossip.In less than a while, half of the villagers in the village knew that Bai Mi was going to buy land, and everyone took him as a joke.

Isn't it just wishful thinking to want to buy land with only fifteen cents?Although most villagers can't afford the land themselves, it doesn't prevent them from watching other people's jokes.So as soon as they saw Baishu, they would come up to say hello, and by the way, ask when Baishu would be able to buy the land.

"I'll buy it next month." Bai Shu said with a smile.

After they left, Chen Geer said to Bai Shu with a look of resentment: "Next time, don't talk to them, they still don't earn fifty cents a year."

Although he doesn't believe that Bai Shu will be able to buy land next month, but Bai Shu can earn fifty coins at a time, which is much better than those people.

When he came to the back mountain, Bai Shu chopped down a bamboo with two or three strokes.He gave the bamboo to Brother Chen to cut it into sections, and then imitated his previous appearance to make bamboo tubes.

While Brother Chen was making bamboo tubes, Bai Shu was not idle either.

He collected the thinner bamboo poles and found some hidden places to insert them into the soil.

After everything was done, they buried it with leaves so that no trace could be seen.

There are no large animals in the back mountain, but there are still many pheasants and hares.Baizhu is very capable of living in the wild, and it is easy to make traps and catch rabbits.

He said before that he would catch it and feed it to Xie Huaiyu, and of course he would not forget it.

After he made a few traps, Brother Chen's bamboo tube was almost done.So Bai Shu dug two bamboo shoots on the spot, took two bamboo tubes and walked to the river.

He promised to provide Brother Chen with a meal, and now it's almost time to make dinner.

Today's dinner is of course fish again.

Bai Shu was extremely fast, catching two buckets of small fish in two or three strikes.

Chen Ge'er took the initiative to clean and clean the small fish, and chopped up bamboo shoots in a tube to make soup together.For the remaining tube, Atractylodes Atractylodes pierced it with a bamboo stick and put it on the fire for barbecue.

After a while, the smell of fish floated out.Chen Ge'er smelled that smell, and his saliva kept secreting.But when he really started to eat, he was a little absent-minded, and looked in the direction of his home from time to time.

Bai Shu thought that he might be worried about the grains at home, so he said, "If you go out to eat next time, you can bring the grains with you, anyway, he can't eat much by himself."

Hearing Bai Shu's words, Brother Chen thanked him again and again, and was even more grateful to Bai Shu.At the same time, I felt that Bai Shu was a pity from the bottom of my heart, so I said, "Bai Shu, you are so capable, but it's a pity that you were cast in the wrong fetus. If only you were a man, why did you become a brother? The fate of this brother It's really hard, if you're more handsome, you can marry a good man, but like you and me, looking like a man, it's a lifetime of hard work."

Bai Shu was originally a female insect, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with my brother, so she said to Chen brother: "Isn't my brother very good? If you work hard, you can make money to buy land, build a big house, and you can also live with me." Marry the man I like. I never thought there was anything wrong with being a brother."

"But no matter how capable I am, I'm going to marry someone. How can I get married if I'm as rough as a man?" Chen Geer said in surprise.

"If I have extraordinary abilities, own a wealth of wealth, and have a sincere heart, how can I not find the man I like?" Bai Shu smiled and said confidently: "On the contrary, if I only have a face that looks like a woman, But nothing, nothing. Could it be that the man I like will never leave me for just a face? What's more, things like looks will grow old one day. Who can guarantee that they will always be young and beautiful ?”

Bai Shu's words stunned Brother Chen, it was the first time he heard someone say such words to him.

Ever since he was a child, everyone had told him that if his brother looked like a man, he would not be able to marry. After listening to it for more than 20 years, he felt that these words must be true.But when he heard Bai Shu's words today, he felt very reasonable.

Women and brothers from good families in the village are easier to find a partner than those from poor families.If you have a property near you, you don't have to worry about getting married, and you will be booked early.

Those men say that they only like delicate and fertile women, but in fact, they see brothers who have a lot of dowry, but they are still eager to get up.

He also thought of his own Li'er, who had said long ago that he would not give Li'er a dowry property.

When Li'er grows up and gets married, if she is as poor as herself, she may not have a good marriage.

no!I must earn more money, just like Bai Millet.

Even if he can't earn an acre of land for Li'er, he can't be worse than other brothers in the village!

The next day, Bai Zhu got up early in the morning and went directly to the kitchen to eat the bean porridge made by Bai Zou.

After he was full, he went to the back mountain.After inspecting several traps, a pheasant and two rabbits were found inside.

Bai Zhu directly beat the pheasants and rabbits to death, and tied them around his waist with straw ropes.Then he picked up all the bamboo tubes and walked towards the river.

Brother Chen made an appointment with him to meet at the riverside today, and when Bai Shu passed by, Brother Chen had already arrived.

Probably because he was aroused by Baishu yesterday, Chen Geer is extremely diligent today.

Before Bai Shu arrived, he had already fished in the water, but due to his poor technique, he didn't catch a single fish.

When he saw Bai Shu, Brother Chen still felt quite embarrassed.

Bai Shu didn't laugh at him, but asked him to go ashore to have a rest, and help him look after the rabbit and pheasant.He himself went into the water and set to work.

In just over an hour, Bai Shu had caught twenty tubes of fish.

Afraid of accidents on the road, he also prepared a few extra tubes.Then he and Brother Chen went on the road with these live fish on their backs.

In fact, he asked Brother Chen to help, mainly to find someone to carry the fish.Otherwise, without transportation, he really couldn't transport these fish to Laifu Restaurant by himself.

When passing by the east of the village, Bai Shu went to Xie's house again.This time instead of fish, he sent in a pheasant and a rabbit.He was busy delivering fish to Laifulou today, so he didn't have time to stop.

After leaving Xie's house, Chen Ge'er said: "Bai Mi, you are so good, even the Earl's family will buy your things!"

After hearing this, Bai Shu smiled and said, "I didn't buy it, I gave it to you."

"Give it away?" Brother Chen was so shocked that his jaw dropped: "Why did you still send things to his family? They are so rich! These rabbits and pheasants can be sold for at least ten cents in the county. Bar!"

"I like Mr. Xie's family, so I gave it to him." Bai Shu said frankly: "There is no such thing as talking about money with my sweetheart. I will feel sad if he gives me money."

Brother Chen was even more surprised when he heard Bai Shu's words.This white millet is too courageous, he even dares to like the son of the earl's family, how could he be liked by others?

But he turned around and thought, Bai Mi had said before that he would buy land next month.He had always had big ideas like this, and it was useless to persuade him, so he didn't say anything more, just thought that Bai Mi couldn't get married, and the pot was broken.

Before noon, Bai Shu and Brother Chen arrived at the gate of the county seat.

He didn't stop this time, and bought four meat pancakes for a few pennies, and he and Brother Chen took them away and ate them while walking.

Brother Chen was heartbroken seeing him spending money. He hadn't made any money yet, so he spent four coins all at once.Although the money was not his own, he felt very distressed, so he proposed to bring dry food out next time.

Unexpectedly, Bai Shu refused immediately.Just kidding, he makes money to eat and drink well.After finally coming to the city, I can eat something good, how can I eat dry food?So Brother Chen didn't say anything, just kept one of the biscuits in his arms, and took them back for the child to eat.

After walking for a while, they came to the entrance of Laifu Restaurant.

It was the first time for Brother Chen to enter this kind of place. He saw the imposing signboard in the restaurant, and the tables and chairs were all painted red.He couldn't help being a little timid, he didn't dare to say a word, he only dared to follow behind Bai Shu.

The author has something to say: explain the protagonist's name.The original body was called Baishu, and the one who passed through was called Baishu, with the same pronunciation and different characters.When I write, it is usually Baishu, but when I switch to the inner perspective of the villagers, it is Baishu.Now I find that a lot of people think it’s a bit messy, so I’ll replace it with Baishu later, as long as everyone knows who it’s talking about.
