Chapter 173 The Little Pig Smiled



Qinling did a more detailed calculation.

"Eight taels of silver per mu of land, a total of 320 mu for 2,560 taels, plus the previous 62 taels, for a total of 2,622 taels, not including the costs of the pharmacy and the school!"

Without saying a word, Wu Hua threw down two more sacks of silver.

"Here's three thousand taels, plus the previous sack, making a total of four thousand five hundred taels! Right?"

Qin Luo immediately praised

"Absolutely correct, you're amazing, little one!"

Everyone praised its intelligence, and Wu Hua happily wagged her little tail back and forth.

Qinling continues to settle accounts

"Let's say the pharmacy and the school together cost 100 taels, so the total is 2,722 taels."

He turned his gaze to Qin Xing and Qin Xian

"Village Chief He said a slightly larger martial arts school would cost around six hundred taels of silver. The interior is already furnished and only needs minor renovations, so the total would be seven hundred taels, excluding swords, spears, and halberds!"

Qin Luo raised his hand: "I can provide some broadswords and short weapons!"

Qin Xing objected upon hearing this.

"The weapons you provided are too sophisticated and unsuitable. Furthermore, all ironware must be approved by the government; not a single item more or less will suffice!"

Qin Ling agreed with Qin Xing's words.

"Young Master Xing is right! Let's budget 1,000 taels first! 100 taels for the ancestral hall construction, totaling 3,820 taels!"

After saying that, he looked at Wu Hua, who then did some calculations.

"The remaining six hundred and eighty taels will be kept by the elders as a reserve fund for hiring help later. If it's not enough, just let me know. Seeds, medicinal herbs, and saplings don't need any money; I have them here!"

Qinling handed the calculated paper to Wuhua for her to see.

"Sir, this is more than enough. All future profits will be yours to manage!"

Wu Hua shook her head and declined.

"I don't want them. These are all for you; you can take care of them yourselves. I only care about Luo Luo!"

Qin Luo walked over and hugged it.

"All the money I earn in the future will be yours!"

Wu Hua was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Great! Hehe~"

The family was completely bewildered by these words; they all believed they were working for Wu Hua.

It turned out they had no intention of taking it at all. In the end, Qin Ling led the Qin family to kneel down before Wu Hua.

Qin Luo quickly knelt down and placed the Wu flower on her head.

Qin Ling looked at Wu Hua, his tone sincere.

"Lord Kang, the Qin family is very grateful for your protection, but we truly feel unworthy of such a large sum of money!"

Wu Hua, however, did not take it to heart.

"If you're offered this, then accept it. If you truly feel guilty, then help more poor families and do good deeds to the best of your ability in the future!"

Qin Ling and the rest of the Qin family bowed to Wu Hua.

Qin Luo quickly lifted it up and bowed down as well.

Wu Hua was completely speechless.

"Get up, everyone, stop bowing! Or I'll never play with you again!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ling then told everyone to stand up and bow to Wu Hua.

"Rest assured, Your Excellency, I will inscribe your words on the ancestral precepts stone tablet so that future generations may remember them!"

Wu Hua immediately agreed upon hearing that the inscription was to be carved on a stele.

'Okay, okay, then don't forget! Hahaha~''

Qinling quickly agreed, but then suddenly became worried.

"If we suddenly produce so much silver, the government will question us about its origin. We're just ordinary people; how can we explain this?"

Wu Hua took out the token that Mu Xiuyu had given to Qin Luo and handed it to him.

"Take this. When you get to the yamen (government office), show it to the clerk handling the deed, and I guarantee the magistrate will come to see you!"

Qin Luo, seeing this, hurriedly asked

"Will this cause trouble for Xiaoyu?"

Wu Hua waved her little animal hoof.

"No, just show it to the magistrate and say it's something a relative left with you. They'll come to pick it up soon. When Mu Feng and Mu Xiao return, just let them know!"

Everyone was relieved to hear this, and after discussing it...

The younger members of the Cloth Bag Squad surrounded Wu Hua again, bombarding her with questions.

Annoyed by the noise, Wu Hua turned and went back to her spatial dimension.

Seeing that it had suddenly disappeared, everyone looked at Qin Luo.

Qin Luo spread his hands

"Don't ask me, I don't know, but it's definitely because you guys are annoying me!"

Qin Ling also looked at them seriously.

"You must show some respect to adults. If you anger them, I'll give you a good spanking!"

Upon hearing this, the group immediately fell silent...

Early the next morning

After everyone finished breakfast, Qin Ling and the three Qin brothers loaded the silver onto the carriage!

Then Village Chief He arrived, accompanied by He Huaixing and his family of three!

He Suisui pounced on Qin Luo as soon as she saw him.

"Sister, Sui Sui has come to see you!"

The cloth bag team was also happy to see him, and they went over one by one to pat his head and pinch his cheeks.

Qin Yunze pouted and accused

"Sui Sui, you're so heartless! I've treated you so well, and you never even come to see me!"

He Suisui quickly grabbed his arm.

"Sui Sui also came to see her brother, but her older sister is a girl, and Mother said it's better to treat girls better!"

Qin Yunze thought about it and agreed.

"Alright then! From now on, you'll have to put me second!"

He Suisui sighed helplessly.

"Ah! Are the other brothers walking alongside you?"

Looking at his brothers standing in a row beside him, Qin Yunze could only concede: "Alright then!"

Hearing their innocent words, the elders standing nearby couldn't help but smile.

Village Chief He and He Huaixing went to the county town with the three Qin brothers, Qin Ling, and Doctor You!

Yu Fangfang and He Suisui stayed at the Qin family's house to play, and the three sisters-in-law of the Qin family taught her to cook their signature dishes.
