Hua Hanmao calmed himself down, tried to be calm and composed, and not be surprised.
But seeing the booming business, I couldn’t help but feel excited.
But he helped to get the buns quickly and steadily.
By noon, all the dumplings were sold out.
The whole family breathed a sigh of relief.
The family had smiles on their faces as they sat on the boat.
They were so busy that they didn't eat much at noon, so they just had one or two steamed dumplings to fill their stomachs.
At this time, there was no time to eat anything else. The family sat together counting money.
Hua Xinuo had already calculated the accounts in her mind.
When selling buns, she knew exactly how many she sold and how much she earned.
But she didn't say anything, because her parents and brothers probably liked the feeling of counting money bit by bit.
Of course she enjoys it too. Look, she is helping to count them one by one.
Qiu Wenqin counted them once, her hands shaking with excitement.
Although he knew he had made a lot of money today, he still couldn't believe it. "Today, including the money from selling fish and meat, I made a total of two taels of silver, four hundred and ninety-three coins."
Qiu Wenqin's voice trembled when she spoke.
They all looked obviously in disbelief.
"I used about 40 to 50 kilograms of flour, plus some oil and salt. After deducting the cost, I made at least one and a half taels of silver."
"It's only been half a day!"
Although I started working before dawn and continued until after noon, it was equivalent to only working for half a day to earn this much.
Hua Xinhong's palms became warm.
Hua Hanmao was even more excited and his eyes were sparkling.
Hua Hanbin was a man of lively character. He calculated and said, "If we continue to sell like this today, we can make 45 taels of silver a month!"
"It only takes one month for us to buy a plot of land and build a big house."
It doesn't take that much money to buy land and build a house in the village, so I'll have more on hand.
Hua Hanbin was so excited that he could hardly sit still.
"Very good!"
Hua Xinhong's eyes also turned red, and he quietly held back his tears.
"Before, my father was useless. I didn't expect that my children are capable now and can make money."
He felt extremely guilty.
Hua Xinuo said, "Dad, you can't say that."
Hua Hanmao also hurriedly said: "Yes, Dad, you are the pillar of the family. It is because of Mom and Dad's hard work in fishing over the years that we have shelter from the wind and rain. That is why we have food to eat and a place to stay."
Although the boat is not big and provides little shelter from the wind and rain, it is better than sleeping on the streets.
At least the family can stay together well.
Qiu Wenqin spat and said, "Now that I'm happy about making money, you're not allowed to say such things."
"Okay, I won't tell you. I won't tell you."
He just felt sad.
Hua Xinuo knew that her father rarely became so sentimental.
In the past, no matter how hard my father worked, he never showed any vulnerable emotions.
Perhaps it was because he made some money, the pressure in his heart was relieved, and some of his suppressed emotions came out.
"Dad, if we continue to sell dumplings like we did today, even if we make fewer dumplings and fewer people buy them, we can still make at least four or five hundred coins a day, including fishing, which is enough to ensure that our family can have enough to eat."
"If you make a lot of money, you can make a lot in half a month."
Hua Hanbin said with a grin, "I'm full of energy now. I'll do whatever my sister says."
Qiu Wenqin also had a relaxed smile on her face. Looking at the happy smiles on her children's faces, she felt extremely happy.
Hua Xinuo stood up, patted the white flour he was carrying, and said, "A lot of people asked for mushroom dumplings at noon today. I promised to make them tomorrow morning, so let's go to the mountains to pick mushrooms now."
Hua Hanmao also reacted, "Yes, sister, I will accompany you to the mountains to pick mushrooms, and cut some bamboo by the way, so that dad can help weave a few more cages and put down a few more cages."
Now, Hua Hanmao is very motivated when he thinks about setting up cages to catch fish.
He can catch fish every time he puts the cage in the net, which makes him full of confidence.
Instead of setting the cage in the past and finding it empty or with only a few small fish after several days, he couldn't help but doubt whether he knew how to set the cage and whether he could catch any fish.
After doubting himself so many times, he lost all confidence.
Now it is his sister who has given him confidence again.
Hua Hanbin looked at the bucket and felt that it was not enough to hold the mushrooms. "The bucket and the backpack we used before were too small. If I could pick more at a time, I could make more buns."
Qiu Wenqin smiled and said, "Here are two large sacks. You can use them to carry the food."
"If you put too much in, tie the sack with a rope and you two brothers can carry it back."
Although Hua Hanmao and Hua Hanbin are a little thin, the two brothers are very strong.
Besides, shiitake mushrooms are not heavy and they don’t weigh much when packed in a sack.
So the three brothers and sisters went to the mountain over there to continue picking mushrooms.
Hua Xinuo also dug up some more ginger.
It was not until the evening that the three brothers and sisters returned home.
Two large sacks full of shiitake mushrooms.
Qiu Wenqin went to buy some more noodles, fearing that there wouldn't be enough for the next day.
I also made some extra dough, thinking of getting up earlier the next morning to make more dumplings.
Do more while everyone is still excited about it, so you can earn more.
Hua Xinhong watched his son and daughter get some bamboo, and then he split it with a knife to weave some cages.
Hua Xinuo carefully observed her father's hands and said, "Dad, can your hands still weave this?"
Hua Xinhong smiled lovingly, "Don't worry, it's okay to write this, it's just that I don't have enough strength to hold the pen."
