Lin Yunchu raised his head and glanced at everyone, then said, "Uncle, aunt, I want your family to join us in making this loquat paste, and we can split the profits in half between our two families."

Both families knew that there was a loquat forest on the back mountain.

Moreover, the fruits are ripe now, so we have to pick them quickly and boil them into loquat paste.

If we delay any further, the ripe fruits will either be eaten by birds or fall down, which will be a loss.

After coming out of Jishidiang, Lin Yunchu was thinking about this matter all the way. If there were only a few people in their family, and they had to go into the mountains to pick mushrooms and bamboo shoots, they would be too busy to handle it.

Picking loquats and processing the fruits are both laborious jobs. Lin Qingshan's family has always helped out with my family before, and now that there is a way to make money, I have to take them with me.

Moreover, Lin Qingshan's family also followed their family into the mountains to pick mushrooms, and there were more people. The two families could work faster if they worked together, and the sooner the fruits could be picked, the sooner the better.

When Lin Qingshan's family heard Lin Yunchu's words, they were all stunned. None of them expected that Lin Yunchu was so anxious today to ask Lin Changping to call them over together, and that he was talking about this matter.

He picked the fruits from a loquat tree in the Lin family's yard and earned several taels of silver. Although sugar cubes and Sichuan loquats were not cheap, the remaining silver was still very considerable.

This is not a small amount of money. For a farmer like them, one or two taels of silver is enough to cover their expenses for a year if they save a little.

Lin Yunchu now actually said that he wanted to do this thing with their family and split the money earned in half.

Lin Qingshan was the first to come to his senses. He waved his hands at Lin Yunchu and refused, "This won't do. This won't do. This is something you made."

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't tempted by so much money, but Lin Qingshan understood that Lin Yunchu cared about their family and wanted to make money with them.

But they didn't help much, it was just a matter of some effort, so how could they split the money in half with my family?

Moreover, Lin Yunchu was able to take their family into the mountains to pick mushrooms and bamboo shoots, and they also earned a lot of money. Their family has always been grateful to their younger brother's family.

He knew in his heart that Yipin Pavilion bought these mushrooms and bamboo shoots only because of Lin Yunchu. If it weren't for Lin Yunchu, they wouldn't even have the money.

"But don't worry, we'll go pick the fruits in the back mountain together. You don't have to worry about these things. They're just some laborious work, not tiring."

The rest of Lin Qingshan's family nodded in agreement. They were all honest and hardworking. They had always helped the Lin family when they were in trouble. The two families were as close as one family.

They didn't think it was a big deal, not to mention that they had saved some money by picking mushrooms in the mountains with the Lin family in recent days, which was already good enough.

Now they are too embarrassed to share the money from the loquat paste with the Lin family, so they just help out, it doesn't take much effort.

Seeing that Lin Yunchu was silent, Lin Qingshan suddenly became anxious and said to Lin Wenshan beside him: "Wenshan, talk to Yunchu. Just do as I say. We don't want any money."

After hearing what his elder brother said, Lin Wenshan shook his head like a rattle. He still couldn't recover from what happened today.

However, he agreed with what Lin Yunchu said. The loquats in the loquat forest in the back mountain are now ripe.

Moreover, it is not easy to pick these fruits from the trees. Since the two families are working together, they should naturally get some money.

Moreover, Lin Yunchu has always been very resourceful. She spoke about this matter so seriously today, which naturally meant that she had thought about it.

Besides, this was done by Lin Yunchu, so he had no objection to her doing whatever she wanted.

Xu on the side also agreed with Lin Qingshan's words. This was not a difficult job. They could help out as a family, but it was not convenient to take so much money.

Lin Yunchu raised the corners of her mouth and smiled. She knew that Lin Qingshan's family was truly doing good for the Lin family and was unwilling to take advantage of the Lin family for nothing.

"Uncle, listen to me, this is settled. If you don't agree, I can't let you help me for nothing. From now on, our two families will live our own lives."

Lin Yunchu's face turned serious, and he deliberately said, "We can't take advantage of you for nothing. Picking loquats is not an easy job. I was thinking of asking you and my eldest cousin to work harder to help me."

In fact, Lin Yunchu had thought about this matter carefully. Although the price offered by Jishidiang for the loquat paste was good, the loquats were already ripe at this time.

The forest on the back mountain is overgrown with weeds, and the weather is hot and humid now, so picking loquats is not an easy job.

Time is tight, and if we don't hurry up to pick all the loquats and make loquat paste, it will be useless once the fruits fall off.

If the two families work together, the brothers and sisters can get the job done faster, which is good for everyone.

Hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lin Qingshan's family became anxious. Why didn't this child listen? If they didn't agree with this, he wouldn't help them.

"Brother, just listen to Yun Chu on this matter. This kid has great ideas and what he says makes sense."

Lin Wenshan said to Lin Qingshan with a smile: "It's still early, why don't we go to the back mountain now, the more we can pick, the better."

When Lin Qingshan heard that even his younger brother was persuading him like this, he didn't know how to refuse. Thinking that he had to go into the mountains to pick mushrooms tomorrow, he didn't know what to do.

The loquats in the back mountain cannot be picked in one or two days, and it will take more than half a day to pick mushrooms in the mountains.

"So are we going to the mountains to pick mushrooms tomorrow?"

Both sides were dealing with money. Lin Qingshan looked at Lin Yunchu, anxiously waiting for her reply.

"Go, tomorrow will be the same as usual. When you come back, Dad and uncle, you guys will go pick the fruits, and Mom, aunt and I will stay home and pick the mushrooms. It may be a little slow, but it won't delay either side."

These mushrooms were something we had already agreed on with Yipintang a long time ago, and we can’t delay it just because we want to make loquat paste.

Moreover, they have enough manpower and can arrange both of these things without any delay.

Lin Qingshan nodded. Since Lin Yunchu and Lin Wenshan said so, it would be a waste of time if he refused. Now he had to hurry and pick some fruits from the back mountain, as many as he could.

The Lin family did not have enough backpacks, so Lin Qingshan took Lin Changping back home to get some. Lin Yunchu asked his father to prepare two long poles and cut a hole at the top to pick loquats later.

Even the youngest Lin Chang'an went along to help. Lin Yunchu asked Lin's mother and Xu to stay at home to pick some loquat leaves, wash them, and use them to make loquat paste later.

Then he took out some Fritillaria cirrhosa and asked Lin's mother to scoop it into powder later.

The others followed him to the back mountain to pick loquats.
