Ten households all brought some water and sent it to Yang Lizheng, who then distributed it.
Zhang Liangtian was so ashamed when he saw that Xu Niang's family had more water than his own family.
Yang Lizheng didn't think much of it. No matter how much he gave, it was a token of his thoughtfulness.
Yang Lizheng spoke to everyone in the village, "Everyone knows what the situation is now. This water is saved by Dashan, Su Yatou, and the Zhang family. They paid for this water, and I hope you can all remember their kindness."
"There's not much water left. If you still have water at home, don't come here to get it. If I find you coming here to get water, don't expect us to help you in the future."
Da Zhuang's mother, who was preparing to queue up to get water, was dumbfounded when she heard this.
Da Zhuang's mother withdrew from the team and her mother-in-law grabbed her arm.
"Why did you withdraw?"
"Mom, the head of the village said that if we are discovered, we can't let them help us anymore."
"Are you stupid? If he says he won't help, then he won't help? We are from the same village. If something really happened, you would beg him for help. Would he have the heart to watch someone die without helping?"
When Da Zhuang's mother heard this, she thought it made sense.
"I see."
She sneaked back to the back of the line, ready to fish in troubled waters.
Li Zheng continued in front, "There is not enough water now, not enough for two times, so we will only distribute it once. Tomorrow morning, we need to find water along the way. How to distribute the water is up to you."
I can help for a while, but I can't help for a lifetime.
Yang Lizheng is very clear about this principle.
When everyone heard that they could only get water once, they were disappointed, but they also felt that it was reasonable.
There is only so much water for ten households. How can it be shared by all of them every day?
Yang Lizheng distributed water according to the number of people in each household, so some had more water and some had less water.
Every household was very careful after getting the water.
When it was Da Zhuang Niang's turn, Aunt Wang in the crowd shouted, "Da Zhuang Niang, are you ashamed? You brought all the water from your home, why are you still asking for water here?"
Being exposed, Da Zhuang's mother was ashamed and angry, "What nonsense are you talking about? My water is all used up."
"Finished? I just saw Da Zhuang scooping a bucket of water and showing off."
"I saw that, too."
It was useless for Da Zhuang's mother to argue anymore, and her face turned red with anger.
Yang Lizheng snorted coldly, "Hurry up and leave, don't make trouble here."
Others also started to drive them away.
Any less point is a good thing, so naturally we don’t want this kind of person to take the points.
Da Zhuang's mother ran back dejectedly. As soon as she came back, her mother-in-law spat at her angrily and cursed, "Useless thing."
"Mom, how can you blame me for this?"
Each household gets little water, which is only enough for a family to use for two days, even if they don't cook and are very frugal.
Fires were lit at night, but few families used them to boil water and cook.
Uncle Wan San was leaning against a big tree, smelling the aroma of rice in the pot, his stomach rumbling loudly.
"Your village head is good." Master Wan San said.
"The third maternal grandfather is naturally good."
Whether in terms of management or interpersonal relationships, it is very worthy of learning for these younger generations.
"It's a pity that I'm too old. If I were a few decades younger, I might be able to achieve something in this chaotic world."
The times restricted the growth of many people, and my third grandfather was one of them.
Su Yin looked at him in surprise. "Such a high evaluation. If the third grandfather heard it, he would definitely be very happy."
Master Wan San smiled at her and said, "You are not bad, not worse than your third grandfather."
"Thank you, thank you." Su Yin accepted his compliment with a smile.
This girl is really thick-skinned. I’m afraid that ten little girls would not be as thick-skinned as her.
“Gurgle gurgle”…
Master Wan San's stomach started to rumble again.
Su Baozhu smiled and served him a full bowl of porridge with some minced meat in it, which was made from dried meat.
After blowing the porridge to cool it down, Master Wan San took a sip slowly. He thought it was just an ordinary bowl of porridge, but it tasted surprisingly good. There seemed to be some flavors he had never tasted before.
He drank mouthful after mouthful, and in no time he had finished the bowl of meat porridge.
"Did you add anything else to this porridge?"
Su Baozhu, who was cooking tonight, quickly shook her head and said, "No, I just cooked the porridge and the dried meat together."
"That's not right. There are several flavors in this porridge. They are very novel."
"Oh, that should be Yinyin's braised meat jerky."
"Can you give me a piece of dried meat?" Master Wan San became interested.
Su Baozhu took out a piece of dried meat from her small cloth bag.
Master Wan San took a sip.
Yes, that’s the taste.
He looked at Su Yin curiously, "How is this jerky marinated?"
If it were someone else, they would probably say the same thing, but Su Yin is not stupid. Something that can be favored by the big businessman Wan Sanye must be valuable.
"This is my family's ancestral secret method, which is not passed on to others."
Master Wan San knew that he couldn't take advantage of this little fox.
"Are you interested in selling me the secret recipe? My price is very fair."
Before Su Yin could speak, Su Baozhu asked curiously, "How much?"
Master Wan San raised his hands.
"Fifty taels?" Su Baozhu asked with shining eyes.
When Su's mother heard the number, she was also very excited and wished they could make the deal right away.
Fifty taels! That’s a full fifty taels. It’s enough to build three nice houses and buy some good farmland.
Facing the two of them, Master Wan San wanted to say yes, but it was difficult to fool the people who held the power.
"Five hundred taels." Master Wan San quoted the price.
Mother Su: “(⊙o⊙)…”
Su Baozhu: “(⊙o⊙)…(ˉ﹃ˉ)…”
The price of five hundred taels was indeed fair, but Su Yin didn't take it seriously.
"Not interested, not selling."
Mr. Wan San was not in a hurry, but Su's mother was. She was about to say something but was stopped by Su Baozhu, who gave her a look and told her to be patient.
The amount of five hundred taels is not enough even if they are sold.
If they had five hundred taels, they would never have to worry about food and clothing.
Although Su Baozhu was very moved, she was not stupid.
The fact that this fat man can offer this price means that the formula is worth it, but Yinyin disagrees, which only means that the value is higher than five hundred taels.
In such a short time, Su Baozhu figured out the key point. Naturally, she was not panicked and waited quietly for the two of them to negotiate.
"You can't afford to lose anything, but this time, five hundred taels is the maximum I can offer."
"I know your price is high. But I plan to do this business myself after I become more stable. A long-term business is suitable for us."
Master Wan San thought that the girl still had 50,000 taels of silver, which was enough for her to start this business, so he stopped persuading her.
This girl has a lot of ideas.
In a magnificent house in Wuzhou, several men in gorgeous clothes are surrounding a landscape painting made of silk.
"Is this the treasure map?!"
