Fu Qing's voice interrupted Chu Xuan's thoughts, "Didn't mother say she had good news to share?"
Qin Mahua said with joy, "That's right! Let's go inside and talk while we eat!"
If you don't eat quickly, the food will get cold.
They sat around the table, eating and chatting.
"Your uncle said that this money can't be lent for nothing. When we make money in the future, we have to share the profits. We can get 10% of the net profit."
Mu Chenze took a bite of the king razor clam and found it delicious. He wanted to eat more and didn't have time to talk. Instead, Fu Qing and Chu Xuan looked at each other.
How can family members get dividends?
Qin Mahua took out a piece of paper from her pocket and said, "This is what your uncle insisted I bring back."
Put it in Fu Qing's hand.
Fu Qing unfolded it, moved towards Chu Xuan, and read the content together.
Finished reading quickly.
The general meaning is that if Qin Chao borrows money from the Mu family and loses money, he will be responsible for repaying the money. If he makes money, he will give the Mu family 10% of the net profit as a dividend.
Chu Xuan and Fu Qing finally decided not to take any dividends but only the principal.
Qin Mahua couldn't do anything about the two of them, so she said she would wait for Mu Qinlao to come back and ask for his opinion.
After lunch, Qin Mahua was responsible for cleaning up the dishes, Chu Xuan and Fu Qing went back to their rooms to rest, and Mu Chenze was sorting the razor clams.
The largest size ones can be sold at a better price if placed in a separate backpack.
The smaller ones are kept for home consumption or sold at a low price.
At this moment, Widow Qiu was frying razor clams for Chu Dashan at his home.
Chu Dashan was eating melon seeds nearby while talking, "The king clams you bought are quite big. You're quite picky!"
Widow Qiu felt a little pained. "One dollar a piece, can't you just give us the biggest one? We are all from the village, how can Mu Chenze have the nerve to ask for such a high price?"
Chu Dashan cracked a melon seed and put it into Widow Qiu's mouth. "Sister Qiu, you don't understand. One with this head would cost at least 1.2 or 1.3 yuan each in the city! The price Mu Chenze gave us is very fair."
"But he buys them for fifty cents each."
"We can't dig up clams this big on the beach in our village, so we buy them for fifty cents each. These are obviously from outside, so they must be at least eighty cents each. Don't feel bad, we're not at a disadvantage. In a few days, you won't be able to buy clams this good even if you have money."
Chu Dashan looked very happy.
Widow Qiu still couldn't understand why she had to buy some pork belly instead of razor clams? Twenty yuan!
It’s equivalent to a poor family’s monthly living expenses!
He secretly cursed Chu Dashan for being a spendthrift.
Even if you have money, you can’t spend it like this!
He said tactfully, "Brother Dashan, we both have no income. If we rely on our savings, our money will soon be gone. How will we live in the future?"
Chu Dashan comforted him, "Don't worry about that. You don't have to worry about food and drink."
Widow Qiu was very curious. "Brother Dashan, tell me quickly, how do you make money? I want to invest some money too."
Chu Dashan looked mysterious and said, "Just spend my money, don't worry about where the money comes from."
"Is the money from illegal sources?"
"What are you thinking? Of course it came from a legitimate source. Someone gave it to me willingly."
"Someone else? Feng Chunhua?"
Chu Dashan's eyes flickered, and he simply nodded to avoid further questioning from Widow Qiu. "Yes. It's her."
"So Feng Chunhua is a cash cow. Should we take some time to visit her?"
"It's better not to go. What if she gets so angry that she vomits blood?"
"All right then!"
As he was speaking, the fried razor clams came out of the pot.
Chu Dashan smelled the aroma of the food and his mouth was watering.
They gathered around the stove, blowing on the food while eating.
Widow Qiu ate a queen clam and sighed.
"Once Feng Chunhua is released, I won't have this good fortune anymore, right?"
Chu Dashan kept calling her Razor Clam King, "How could that be? When she's released, you can still stay with me."
"I can see that you have no intention of marrying me. You're dragging me along like this just to make me follow you without any status, right? When Feng Chunhua is released, you will remarry her, right?"
"No remarriage, absolutely no remarriage! Her heart is not with me, there is no need to rekindle the past."
"But didn't she give you the money? If she didn't want anything else from you, why would she give you money?"
This question successfully stumped Chu Dashan.
Because the money he is spending now is not given by Feng Chunhua.
It takes many lies to cover up one lie.
He continued to lie, "She gave me money to make up for it. Don't forget that I was cuckolded for decades."
Widow Qiu really believed this reason, "Then when will you marry me?"
"Let's start spring after the New Year!"
"You didn't lie to me this time?"
“Absolutely not lying.”
"By the way, Brother Dashan, why haven't you set your sights on Chu Xuan's family's yard recently? I remember before..."
“Eat! Eat!”
Chu Dashan changed the subject directly and didn't want to talk about what happened just now.
Qiu Daguang has been arrested and he has no way to enter Chu Xuan’s mother’s yard.
But how should I explain this to that person?
I'm worried!
Since I couldn’t buy the yard of Chu Xuan’s mother’s house, I originally wanted to buy the land next door, but the decision was made by drawing lots.
He was unlucky and didn't win.
I wanted to buy land from the two companies I won, but they refused to sell it.
Everyone thinks that it is a Feng Shui treasure land.
What Chu Dashan is most worried about now is that person coming back...
At seven o'clock in the evening, Chu Xuan, Mu Chenze and Fu Qing went to the county town together to attend cram school.
Fu Qing didn't let Mu Chenfu come with her today because she wanted him to rest at home for a while. After all, he had to go out to sea tomorrow and come back to go fishing with her.
Tonight's class is about yesterday's math test.
Mu Chenze scored full marks.
Chu Xuan and Fu Qing both scored over 60 points.
After explaining the test paper, the Chinese language test followed.
After the exam, all three of them felt that they had done well.
The next few days of tutoring will be spent on reviewing test papers and taking exams.
They returned home around ten o'clock in the evening.
Qin Mahua waited until the three of them entered the house before she said softly, "Your father also disagrees with the dividend distribution. He asked me to return the dividend commitment letter to your uncle tomorrow morning."
As he spoke, he took out the paper from his pocket.
Mu Chenze thought of his wife's instructions and said quickly, "I'll send it back to my uncle when I get back from the city tomorrow."
Qin Mahua felt sorry for her son and said, "You're so busy every day, I'll go!"
"Mom, I have something important to ask my uncle. It's mainly about farming. Xiaoxuan and I have some ideas, let's see if we can do it. That's it! Go back to the house and get some rest!"
Mu Chenze didn't give Qin Mahua a chance to refuse. He snatched the paper from her hand and put it in his pocket.
Qin Mahua wanted to ask a few more questions, but she felt sorry for her son who was tired after a day and needed to rest, so she chose to keep quiet.
Everyone goes back to their respective houses to rest.
After lying down, Chu Xuan couldn't help but mention, "I feel like there's something wrong with Chu Dashan. He seems to have endless money to spend. Back then, Feng Chunhua would sell her gold jewelry from time to time! But he's never done that before."
Mu Chenze hummed, "We'll discuss this matter tomorrow. Now... Xiaoxuan, I..."
Let’s talk about welfare first.
At this moment, Chu Dashan was surprised in his sleep and felt the door bolt moving.
Widow Qiu was sleeping soundly beside him.
He didn't dare wake her up, lest she see something she shouldn't see or hear something she shouldn't hear.
He stood up tremblingly and walked towards the door...
