Chapter 765 Free money

Gu Fei smiled and said, "Dad, I know everything."

"From now on, my family and I will each contribute half of the cost of going to sea, and each of us will get half of the money earned."

Gu Zhang didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just shook his head, "Dad can't take it. This is hundreds of thousands of silver, and I feel guilty for holding it."

Gu Fei glared at her father, "Dad, this is the silver you exchanged for your life. If you hadn't gone to sea, my 50,000 silver would still be 50,000 silver. Think about it."

Gu Zhang didn't know what to say for a moment and just shook his head.

Gu Fei said with a smile: "That's it, dad, let's not buy land or anything with the money we make this time. There will be a big business to do soon, and this little money may not be enough for capital."

Gu Zhang said in surprise: "Half a million silver may not be enough? What kind of big business is this?"

Gu Fei smiled mysteriously, "I'll tell you later."

Gu Zhang secretly wondered why the business cost so much.

However, the daughter refused to ask for money, so he was not in a hurry. Didn't he say that he still wanted to do business? He saved all the money he earned and took it out when the daughter needed it.

At this time, my aunt and uncle were counting the money behind closed doors at my aunt's house.

There was a small box of silver. The aunt counted it several times, and then took the silver notes from her uncle's hand and counted them. She felt bad for a moment. She grabbed her uncle's arm and said in a daze, "You screw it." Let me see, is it true? We have more than six thousand taels of silver?"

The eldest uncle smiled and didn't dare to pinch her, "It's not just six thousand taels, you have counted it several times."

"Before departure, my second uncle gave me three hundred taels of silver, saying it was the wages for going to sea. He also lent me another two hundred taels and asked me to buy some goods with the silver and take them with me. I followed him and bought some tea. "

“When I arrived at the foreign port, I sold it and bought some spices.”

"As soon as the ship arrived at the port last night, you didn't know that there were many businessmen from all over the country waiting to buy the goods. My second uncle was kind and let Jin Sheng and I sell the goods we brought first, and he didn't ask us to pay any tax. It’s all on my own.”

The eldest aunt was touched and proud at the same time: "My second brother really has nothing to say to us."

The eldest uncle chuckled and said, "The second uncle said that he saw our family's difficulties and risked his life to follow him, so he is willing to give us some benefits."

“When you go to sea from now on, you can no longer take private goods with you.”

The aunt said hurriedly: "Of course not. If they all bring personal belongings, wouldn't it be a mess? Going to sea wouldn't be making money for others in vain."

She sighed, "Second brother is giving money to our family."

"This trip is six thousand taels. We must remember this kindness."

The eldest uncle nodded, "Yes, that means Jin Sheng and I are our own family members. The rest of the crew are not allowed to take a penny of goods with them. When they get off the ship, not only their clothes and luggage must be checked, but also their bodies must be searched."

“The search is over, no goods were stolen from the ship, no private goods were taken, and no wages were paid.”

“Yesterday, I caught one of them. He stole some ice flakes and hid them on his body, but he was found out.”

The eldest aunt said, "Really, there are everyone."

She thought for a while and said, "Say, let's get some money and buy land?"

The eldest uncle smiled naively and said, "It's up to you."

The aunt said angrily: "You just have no idea. Otherwise, let's buy some land and see if there are any cheap shops in the city. Then we can buy another shop. A thousand taels of silver left at home will be enough."
