Chapter 70: A different kind of robbing the rich and giving to the poor

Chapter 70 Another alternative of robbing the rich and giving to the poor

A bundle of vegetables as thick as a bowl was sold for fifty cents.

The Li family brought four small baskets and sold them for a total of four liang.

Cucumbers, eggplants, etc. are sold individually for fifty cents each.

Cowpeas and snap beans were originally weighed by kilograms, but people were impatient to weigh them.

It is simply simpler, and a cowpea with a wrist as thick as a cowpea will be given 200 Wen. Grabbing the green beans with one hand and scooping them out with both hands, no matter how much it is, it's still two hundred coins.

Sold like this, half a cart of vegetables was worth twelve and fifty cents.

Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.

This is not a green vegetable, it is simply a golden vegetable!

You know, these things were cheap in previous years, and if they were sold together for a hundred cents, it was pretty good.

Otherwise, wouldn’t farmers be able to make a fortune just by growing vegetables?

Rather than running out of food at home, I would rather leave it to wither in the vegetable garden than have anyone send it to the city.

Now, thanks to the impact of the drought, profits have actually increased a hundred times.

“Haha, this is a great event!”

Liu Biaotou is really happy for the Li family.

"Your family is just lucky. People cry for father and mother when there is a drought. Your family can actually make a windfall!"

Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si also felt happy in their hearts, but they still had to be polite.

“Thanks to the well at home.”

“Yes, fortunately there is water, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to grow vegetables. Of course, Brother Zhou is very capable. If we sold it, we would definitely lose half of it.”

Steward Zhou was stunned by the praise and said quickly.

“No, no, our vegetables are still rare. There aren’t even any insect holes on the leaves. They look so good.”

Li Laoer was anxious to go home to announce the good news, so he had to give money to Manager Zhou.

 Manager Zhou waved his hands repeatedly, "Second brother, don't worry, won't we have to sell a section later? Let's figure it out together in the end."

“That’s alright, I’ll keep the accounts when I get back. Brother, you should also keep them! Now that you’re done with this business, come to our house for a drink.”

After a few more pleasantries, Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si left the **** office and hurried home happily.

Old Mrs. Li has been restless all morning, looking at the door from time to time.

She couldn't bear to let her granddaughter bask in the sun, so she put her granddaughter under the eaves and ran back and forth by herself.

Jiayin was made to giggle by grandma from time to time.

If dad and second uncle don't come back, grandma will step on a ditch in the yard.

Jia'an and Jiaxi hid behind the pillars and secretly looked at grandma.

“What’s wrong with grandma? My second uncle just went to town. Did grandma buy something?”

“It’s possible, I guess it’s snacks.”

“I guess it’s sesame candy.”

Hearing the good news, he couldn’t stop laughing. These two brothers are foodies, so the appraisal is complete!

She smiled like this, which reminded Jiaxi and Jiaan.

Normally, grandma is too strict with her sister and rarely lets them help her. If she wants to touch her face, she will be kicked out.

This is a good opportunity to take advantage of grandma's absence.

The two of them came close to their sister and made funny faces.

Jiayin spat out two saliva bubbles and struggled to get up.

Her original intention was to let her brother carry her and go to the door to have a look, but Jiaxi and Jiaan misunderstood.

The two of them thought their sister was about to walk, so each of them took her hand and led her forward happily.

Jiayin had no choice but to start walking.

With a small body that is not yet one year old, her legs are limp and cannot exert much strength.

Fortunately, my hands were held together, so I could still maintain balance.

The three brothers and sisters walked around under the eaves of the corridor twice, and they were all very happy.

“My sister is so awesome!”

“Yes, yes, that’s the way to go!”

At this time, Mrs. Li suddenly shouted happily, "I'm finally back!"

Jia'an and Jiaxi turned around to look, jumped up and cheered, "Second uncle is back!" The two of them dropped their hands and ran towards the gate.

Jiayin had no support. He was flustered for a moment, his feet were confused, and he fell straight to the ground.

She tried to hold back the tears, but it was too painful, "Wow, wow!"

Tao Hongying heard the noise and came out of the kitchen, ran forward and hugged her daughter. Looking down, I saw that my daughter's upper lip was cut and bleeding.

“Don’t cry, Fu Niu, don’t cry! Look at me, please blow me off.”

Tao Hongying panicked, and Zhao Yuru who came later was also frightened.

“Why did you fall so hard!”

She quickly ran into the house to get the powder.

Jiayin had a fever earlier, which scared the whole family to death. Later he went to the city and bought a lot of backup medicine.

This medicinal powder was brought back by Li Laosi from the **** agency because he was afraid that his daughter might fall while learning to walk. Unexpectedly, it really came in handy today.

Old Mrs. Li ran back in two or two steps. Seeing that her granddaughter was injured, she raised her hand and slapped herself.

Why are you so worried about money that you put your granddaughter under the eaves?

"Mom, don't be like this. It's normal for children to stumble."

Tao Hongying endured her heartache and gave her daughter medicine. The medicinal powder was easy to use, the wound was not big, and the bleeding stopped quickly.

Happy news stopped crying, but Jia'an and Jiaxi were frightened and went crazy.

They just left their sister behind, causing her to get hurt.

The two of them rubbed oil on their feet and ran directly to the yard next door...

Li Laoer and Li Laosi led the mule cart into the yard and found that Jiayin was injured.

The two of them had no time to unload the car, so they came to see the good news. Everyone gathered around the good news and entered the house.

Jiayin was anxious about how much money he had earned, so he ran to Li Laosi and extended his hand.

Li Laosi quickly hugged his daughter and said with a smile.

“Fu Niu is a money addict. Does she know that daddy has money here?”

Jiayin’s little chubby hand touched the trousers on her father’s shoulders. She wanted to smile, but her lips hurt.

Old Mrs. Li felt very distressed and quickly urged her son.

“Hurry up and give the money to Fu Niu. Once she’s happy, she won’t feel any pain anymore.”

Li Laosi turned his robe upside down, and a pile of copper coins and broken silver fell out.

Everyone was so shocked that their mouths opened wide.

"There seem to be seven or eight taels. Is it too much?"

Tao Hongying helped bundle vegetables last night. She knew how much, so she was even more surprised.

Old Mrs. Li was also happy. She first grabbed a piece of silver and stuffed it into her granddaughter's hand.

Sure enough, Jiayin smiled widely and her saliva dripped.

“Look, silver is more useful than powder.”

Everyone laughed, and then asked about entering the city.

Li Laoer said it carefully, and he was also excited at the end.

“In the future, we can also deliver vegetables, and Manager Zhou will be responsible for selling them.”

"That's good. Since we don't show up at home, we naturally have less talk about right and wrong. As for giving him 10%, that's right. It's not easy for people to run errands to find a buyer."

Mrs. Li affirmed her son's approach, which made both Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si feel relieved.

After all, there is a lot of silver involved. If you sell it for ten taels a day, you can give Guan Zhou one tael to moisten his hands. After ten and a half months, it will be more than a dozen taels.

Fortunately, the old lady is sensible and has never let her children and grandchildren down.

There are often villagers coming and going at home, and Mrs. Li is afraid that her money will be exposed. She quickly collected the money and sent it into the back room.

Sure enough, after a while, Uncle Zhao from next door led Jiaan and Jiaxi over.

The two boys cried till they had runny noses and tears. Especially when they looked at Jiayin's **** lips, they cried even louder.

What else does Mrs. Li not know? She snorted and cursed.

"You just ran away when you made a mistake. Are you really promising? How do you know you are back at this time? Do you expect your Grandpa Zhao to intercede and support you?"

Jia An Jiaxi cried so much that she hiccupped, "We didn't mean it!"
