Chapter 474 I Want to Spend Money (Thanks to the Book Friend "Jinyiwei: Rongrong" for the Reward)
Mr. Bai didn't make things difficult for them, not because he didn't want to, but because he thought there was still a long way to go.
Even if children have to endure the baptism of storms, it has to be done gradually, right?
So as soon as the three children asked for it, he gave it to them.
Of course Manbao had to ask for his own family, so Master Bai waved his hand generously and asked the accountant to give the money that had been prepared long ago to the servants to deliver it.
Mr. Bai said, "Remember to have Zhou Jin sign and seal it."
Manbao was delighted to see this and turned around to share the money with Bai Shanbao and the others.
This time, Mr. Bai still settled the bill with silver, but because he was picky about seeds, the amount of wheat seeds he sold was not as much as last time.
Moreover, the unit price was reduced, so Manbao only got five silver ingots, and the rest were placed in the public account.
Manbao didn't mind the weight, so he stuffed them into his bookcase and carried them home.
Old Zhou and his men were also counting their money because they had grown a lot of spring wheat. Although Mr. Bai had improved the quality and lowered the price, their income was about the same as last time.
In total, I got more than 118 taels.
Seeing Manbao coming back, Old Zhoutou waved to her happily and said, "Manbao, Master Bai has sent someone to deliver the silver."
"I know, I called you." Manbao went over directly with the bookcase on her back. After putting it down, she looked at her father seriously, "Dad, do you think I'm awesome?"
Old Zhou nodded repeatedly, "Great, great, my daughter is the best."
Zhou Xi and others who were sitting in the yard also laughed and followed their father in praising her.
"Dad, did our family make a lot of money this year?"
Old Zhou smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed. "Yeah, I made a lot of money."
“I negotiated all the deals.”
"That's right, that's right, our Manbao is so amazing."
Manbao smiled brightly and held her father's hand and said, "I'm so capable and smart, and I made a lot of money in business. Will Dad be angry?"
"No, you've made a lot of money for the family, why would I be angry?"
"Really?" Manbao said, "You won't hit me, nor will you faint from anger, right?"
Old Zhou felt something was wrong and asked, "Manbao, did you do something big without telling Dad?"
"Dad, look!" Manbao quickly opened the bookcase and took out the five ingots of silver from it to show him. "Our farm also sold the wheat seeds to Mr. Bai. This is my share of the money."
Old Zhou immediately took the money and was extremely happy. "So this is it! Well done, Manbao. Look how scared you made Dad."
The brothers and sisters of the Zhou family also breathed a sigh of relief.
Manbao said, "We also sold the winter wheat we harvested at the end of April to Mr. Bai as seeds."
Old Zhou stared, then he remembered what had happened. "Yes, your farm also planted winter wheat. How could I have forgotten?"
At that time, he was so overwhelmed by the one hundred and twenty taels that he didn't even remember this matter.
Just when he was about to remember it, Zhou Yin's matter was brought up again. After he finished Zhou Yin's funeral, he completely forgot about it.
Old Zhou immediately asked, "Where's the money?"
"In my room."
Old Zhou heaved a sigh of relief. "That's good, that's good. What are you doing with so much money as a little girl? Give it to Daddy...and your Mommy to keep it for you."
Old Zhou suddenly changed the subject and turned back to smile ingratiatingly at Qian.
"Dad, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Okay, okay, go ahead and tell me what you want."
"The batch of wheat seeds we exchanged with the villagers at that time was exchanged by Shanbao and others together, and then we resold it to Mr. Bai." Manbao said, staring at her father's expression.
"Okay, okay, our Manbao is awesome... What—" Old Zhou finally realized what she meant and asked, clutching his chest, "You, you, you, what did you just say?"
Manbao took out a needle from somewhere and stared at her father's Ren Zhong acupoint. "Dad, don't faint. If you faint, I will give you acupuncture."
Old Zhou took one look at the needle in her hand and felt even more dizzy.
But it was not only Old Zhou who felt dizzy, all the people in the Zhou family felt dizzy.
Qian was sitting slightly above Old Zhou. Seeing this, she couldn't help but reach out and gently kick his stool. "Look at your courage. Why didn't my daughter dare to tell you? It's because she was afraid of being stopped beforehand and afraid of fainting afterwards."
Old Zhou finally felt better, but he was still very nervous. He grabbed Manbao's hand and said, "Manbao, you didn't lose money, did you? With so much wheat, if you're not careful, your father will go bankrupt to pay for it."
Zhou Erlang couldn't help stamping his feet when he heard this. "Oh, Dad, don't you understand? The price of wheat seeds offered by Mr. Bai, how could I lose money? At that time, it was 150 wen a dou, 150 wen a dou!"
Zhou Silang closed his open mouth, turned his head and stared at his son for a long time.
Fang couldn't help but hug her son tightly and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Let me see if our son looks like Manbao. If he does, I can call him dad from now on."
Fang: ...
Old Zhou finally reacted, "Where's your money?"
That's all the new wheat seeds for most of the families in the village. If converted into money...
Old Zhou felt that there was silver all around him and he couldn't count it at all.
"It's not that much, just forty-nine silver ingots." Seeing that her father didn't look like he was about to faint, Manbao put the needle away and said happily, "Dad, wait, I'll go and get it for you. I told you, I've touched those silver ingots many times, they're really nice to the touch."
Old Zhou nodded, and Manbao asked her fifth brother to go with her to get the money.
The forty-nine silver ingots in the system were arranged in a bamboo box. Manbao directly crawled under his bed, took them out of the system, and pulled them out. In Zhou Wulang's eyes, Manbao hid the box under the bed.
He picked up the box and walked away, "Manbao, Daddy really won't faint? Last time, I just spent three taels of silver to buy a cow and Daddy almost fainted."
"No," Manbao said confidently, "I specifically waited until Dad made a couple of big bucks before telling him this. And Mom also said that Dad often took out the silver ingots at home to count them. They have seven silver ingots. He shouldn't get dizzy after touching them so many times."
"But that's five taels, and this is ten taels."
"Almost, almost."
As it turns out, there is still a lot of difference.
Zhou Wulang placed the box in front of his father and opened it to show him the neatly arranged silver ingots inside.
Old Zhou reached out and touched it, then looked up and smiled at Manbao, "It really is money..."
Manbao nodded and was about to smile when Old Zhou's body went limp and he fell backwards.
Qian behind him caught him, but was knocked down by him. Zhou Dalang and others immediately rushed over to help. Manbao took out a needle and stabbed Old Zhou in the philtrum.
Old Zhou opened his eyes wide, and Qian said quickly, "Da Lang, go to the market and get a doctor."
She couldn't help but nod Manbao's head and said, "Why did you tell your father so suddenly? Didn't I tell you to keep the money yourself?"
Manbao pouted, "But I want to spend money..."
When the money is not spent, it is just stuck in the system and you can deal with it when something happens.
But she was going to spend the money, so much money to spend, how could her father not know?
If I tell him suddenly then, he will definitely be even more scared.
Moreover, the money was spent before it even stayed in his hands. Her father must be even more heartbroken, and he might really beat her up then.
