When Bao Fengming and his companions came back that day, Zhang told them about Xiushui's proposal to cooperate with the villagers to set up a breeding farm.
Bao Fengming didn't make a decision immediately, but looked at his father with burning eyes.
"Dad, what do you think?"
Bao Kunbiao smiled and nodded. "We must do what Xiujie said. Even if it means selling everything we have, we have to do it."
Wife, please calculate how much money our family has. Although Xiujieer said that she would give Shuigenniang more dowry, we can't really let her do it."
Zhang was very clear about the family accounts. "We only have 121 taels in total. Even if we keep 11 taels, we can only invest 100 taels.
One hundred taels is enough to invest in a breeding farm..."
The apprentices that Bao Kunbiao accepted were actually a few homeless guys accepted by Bao Fengming, who quickly expressed their opinions.
"Master and Madam, we still have a little bit on us."
As they spoke, the three men turned around to get their money.
The three girls looked at each other, got up and left. When they came back a while later, the six children were holding their own purses in their hands.
"We have some here too."
Zhang happily didn't say whether she wanted it or not, and looked at all the money in their hands.
Finally, it was discovered that the eldest apprentice had 20 taels and the youngest apprentice had 15 taels. These two were usually very smart. In addition to learning how to butcher pigs, they also did some other work.
For example, when I go to the countryside to collect pigs, if I see something that is popular in the city, I will buy it back and become a middleman.
I used to think they were just making a small fuss, but I never thought they could actually save money.
As for the three girls and the second apprentice, although it was not much, each person only had a surplus of about one to five taels, but this was the most money they could save.
After all, these people really have no ability and no idea of making money.
After reading it, she smiled and waved. "You're all good kids, why would we take your money? We want to run this farm, and if we don't have enough money, we'll find a way to borrow some."
Keep your money."
The eldest disciple knew that his master's wife had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She usually looked fierce to them, but in reality she treated them very well.
They were all homeless people, and they truly felt the motherly love from their master's wife.
Deep down, the three of them regarded the Bao family as one family.
He knew that his master's wife really didn't want to give it to him, but he really wanted to give it to her. So he thought about it and made a tactful suggestion.
"Master's Wife, you see, we have nowhere to go. Even if we learn the skills well in the future, we will still have to eat pig-killing meals with the masters.
Setting up this farm is indeed a great thing, and we really want to contribute to it.
"Master's Wife, how about this? We can all consider this money as our collective investment. When the farm distributes its profits in the future, you can give us a little as a token of your appreciation."
When Bao Kun and his son heard this, they thought it was a good idea.
Those boys and girls just spend their money on eating and drinking and don't do any real work. It would be better for them to invest in this farm.
So, Bao Kun made the decision on the spot.
"Feng Ming, take the money tonight and go find your father-in-law. Then, in front of him, sign a cooperation agreement with the village.
We trust the Wen family, but when it comes to cooperating with the village, the terms and conditions must be clearly defined."
Bao Fengming nodded. "Dad, I'll listen to you."
When the junior brothers heard this, they laughed happily.
Bao Fengming looked at his senior brother secretly glancing at his eldest sister, and exchanged glances with his wife.
My wife is really attentive. She thinks the senior brother and the eldest sister are interesting. When my wife told him about it earlier, he didn't quite believe it.
After all, the eldest brother had brains and was a decent-looking guy. When the four men went out to collect the pigs, many girls stared at the eldest brother.
Who would have thought that such a beautiful woman would secretly be targeting her elder sister.
Take a look at the eldest sister's round face. Although she lost weight while fleeing the famine, her face is still a cute round face.
Apart from the cute dimples when she smiles, there's not much else to see.
With his tall stature, carefree personality, and the way he laughs and giggles when he talks... he really doesn't get along well with the senior apprentice.
Wen Xiuli looked at the couple with a smile, secretly wondering when her elder sister-in-law would realize that the senior fellow student had actually been staring at her.
Maybe in my sister-in-law's heart, she is not worthy of such a good-looking man.
Thinking of this, she looked at her second and third aunts. These three aunts were older than her, but none of them were married.
I have to say that the Bao sisters really look like their mother-in-law. Fortunately, after losing weight, the three sisters still have their own good looks even though they have strong frames.
At least now my elder sister-in-law looks likable. Although her face looks round and chubby when she smiles, she is very approachable.
When I stay with her, I feel that the whole world is peaceful and calm.
As for my second aunt, after her face became thinner, her eyes became charming and affectionate.
Even though he still had a round face, with those fox eyes, he always gave her a sentimental look when she wasn't paying attention.
Coupled with her fiery personality, according to Sister Xiushui, the second aunt gives the impression of a fiery and strong beauty.
My third aunt doesn’t like to talk much and is a bit lazy. She always gives people a sense of invisibility.
But she would do everything she was asked to do seriously. Every time I praised her for doing a good job, she would open her eyes wide and then lower her head shyly.
Many times, her sister-in-law, who was obviously younger than her, actually had the desire to protect her and guard her shyness...
In fact, after getting to know each of the three sisters for a long time, I found that each of them has their own characteristics. Even if one of them is fat, she still has the style of a fat beauty.
My eldest sister-in-law has found her marriage. Now that the two girls have lost weight, many young men in the village always turn their eyes to them.
However, these two aunts seemed unaware and did not realize that they were now attracting young men.
Thinking that her three aunts would soon have their own lives, Wen Xiuli smiled quietly. The better the Bao family was, the more she wanted them to be better too.
His gaze fell on the two junior brothers who were standing next to his second aunt. He didn't know what they were thinking.
Although it seems that both of them like talking to the second aunt, they don't seem to have any romantic feelings for each other? But they seem to be competing for the second aunt's favor?
She must be too old to understand what young people think nowadays.
Xiuli shook her head. She felt that she had gone crazy recently. Whenever she saw a young man getting close to her aunts, she thought they just liked her aunts.
It's definitely an illusion...
