How many?
"It should be thirty or fifty yuan, right?"
After Lin Sen finished speaking, Lin Jianguo and Zhang Daniu looked at Lin Sen with burning eyes and great excitement as they saw the cloth bag full of change that Lin Sen had taken out.
Today, Lin Sen has truly opened their eyes.
For them, who had spent the first half of their lives working only in the fields and at sea.
They never expected this.
The small shrimp, crabs, and yellow croakers that can be found everywhere in the ditches are surprisingly selling so well.
In the city, money is even easier to make!
"Komori?"
Lin Jianguo, his Adam's apple bobbing, trembled all over as he looked at the money in the cloth bag.
The most money he had ever seen in his life was the thousand yuan he managed to scrape together to get Lin Sen a wife.
You should know that one thousand yuan was his savings of more than ten years, as well as money he had begged and pleaded with from all sides!
The money Lin Sen took out at that moment.
Although it doesn't amount to a thousand yuan, it looks like it's worth at least several tens of yuan.
And this is money earned in just one day.
So how could he not be excited!
"Dad, Brother Da Niu."
"There are two hundred yuan in this pocket!"
Under the astonished gazes of Lin Jianguo and Zhang Daniu, Lin Sen said with a smile, "Let's leave aside the cost of fifty yuan for beer, pickles, steamed buns, tables, chairs, benches, and honeycomb briquettes."
"Then we deduct the cost of six yuan for chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, as well as the cost of raw spices such as cinnamon, star anise, and bay leaves."
"Because we caught the small shrimp, crabs, and yellow croakers ourselves, we didn't spend any money."
Lin Sen shrugged slightly and smiled, "So, excluding labor costs, we're making a profit today."
"One hundred and forty-four yuan!"
"hiss."
"Gulp."
"One hundred, one hundred and forty-four yuan!"
The moment Lin Sen finished speaking, Lin Jianguo and Zhang Daniu exchanged glances, their Adam's apples bobbing violently, their fists clenched, and their eyes bloodshot.
I was completely shocked!
One hundred and forty-four yuan!
Back in 1984, let alone rural people, even urban workers in state-owned factories earned only thirty to fifty yuan a month.
Even for mid-to-high-level managers, their monthly take-home pay is probably around this amount.
At this very moment, they are poor people who toil in the fields.
He actually earned the equivalent of a city leader's monthly salary.
And they earned a month's salary from these leaders in just one day!
This completely shocked Lin Jianguo and Zhang Daniu.
Even though they had a vague idea of how much money they would make today while they were busy selling spicy crayfish, spicy crabs, and fried yellow croaker, they knew they would make a lot of money.
But they never expected to make so much money today!
"Son, we can't keep this money all to ourselves."
Lin Jianguo took a deep drag on his pipe and looked at Lin Sen with a serious expression: "Your brother Da Niu helped us a lot today!"
"If it weren't for you, Brother Niu, the two of us wouldn't have made so much money today!"
"Dad, I know that."
Lin Sen nodded immediately after Lin Jianguo finished speaking.
Then, Lin Sen took out three ten-yuan bills from the 144-yuan note, and then handed a five-yuan note to Zhang Daniu: "Brother Daniu, let's split this money among the three of us, this is yours!"
"Brother Lin, I can't accept this money."
“You gave me roast chicken and cake yesterday, I’m here to help.”
Upon seeing the money Lin Sen offered, Zhang Daniu immediately declined, saying, "Brother Lin, the reason these small shrimp, crabs, and yellow croakers can sell for so much money is all because of your excellent cooking skills."
"I'm just doing odd jobs."
"So keep the money safe for yourself."
Zhang Daniu stood with his hands behind his back, refusing to take the money Lin Sen offered.
"Brother Da Niu, if you don't accept this, I'll be too embarrassed to ask you for help again tomorrow!"
Seeing Zhang Daniu's serious refusal, Lin Sen pondered for a moment and said, "Consider this money as payment for these few days' wages."
“We’ll be busy setting up stalls for the next few days during the temple fair, so we’ll definitely need your help.”
"After the temple fair ends, there might be other tasks that require your help!"
"So you have to accept this money."
As he spoke, Lin Sen forcibly stuffed the money into Zhang Daniu's pocket: "Whenever I need your help, Brother Daniu, I'll pay you for your work!"
"Brother Da Niu, we're brothers, so let's keep clear accounts."
"I don't trust anyone else, so I'll have to trouble you a lot from now on, Brother Da Niu!"
Lin Sen looked intently at Zhang Daniu: "Brother Daniu, please don't refuse. Otherwise, I really won't be able to ask you for help again in the future!"
"Yes, Da Niu, just accept it!"
Lin Jianguo patted Zhang Daniu's shoulder heavily: "You've seen Xiaosen's abilities; he can make money. So if he gives it to you, just take it."
"this."
"All right."
Under the intense gazes of Lin Sen and Lin Jianguo, Zhang Daniu hesitated slightly before finally nodding emphatically: "Uncle, Brother Lin, if you need anything in the future, please feel free to call me anytime!"
"Of course, of course!"
Lin Sen smiled and patted Zhang Daniu's arm, then looked at Feng Zhiqiang, who had eaten and drunk his fill.
After a moment's thought, Lin Sen pulled out a 100-yuan note and waved it in front of Feng Zhiqiang.
"Boss Lin."
Upon seeing the great unity, Feng Zhiqiang's eyes immediately lit up, and he stared intently at Lin Sen.
She even had a fawning expression on her face.
