Although Ermazi is old, she is not married yet. She takes a bag of heavy yellow gold to go home at night, which makes her father and mother so happy that she almost suffers from a cerebral hemorrhage.

Fifty taels of gold are at least five hundred taels of silver. If it is exchanged for copper coins, they can kill a few cows. With this gold, they also have the confidence to start organizing marriage for their son.

It’s not scary to be ugly. As long as you have money, a savage can marry a good wife.

I finally hoped that my son could get married.

So the two old men decided to go to a nearby temple to burn incense and thank the Buddha and Bodhisattva for their blessings.

"Mom, why are you muttering? My money is not blessed by Buddha Bodhisattva. It is earned by Brother Qi for us. If you want to burn incense, you might as well go to the mountain temple to thank him. Otherwise, you can thank Brother Qi'er's house!" Ermazi couldn't help laughing and crying.

"What are you talking nonsense? Naturally, there are Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in heaven to bless you to make money. What's the use of thanking the mountain god? Didn't the statue of the mountain god collapse?" the old woman muttered.

"You can do whatever you want, but don't give too much money to incense. I will discuss with Brother Dayuan Qier tomorrow to see when the mountain temple will be repaired. I don't know what those bald donkeys are to worship. A few days ago, I heard that a monk from a temple in Jiangning Mansion specifically seduced good women who went to burn incense and said that they were praying for blessings and sending children, and then they tricked these women into the temple and made their stomachs bigger..."

"How can you talk to your mother, you're so stupid? I'll kill you bastard!"

Before Ermazi could finish his words, an old man popped up in the room, holding a wooden stick as thick as an egg in his hand and hit him down.

Ermazi was hit by two sticks and ran out with her head in her arms. Seeing her father standing at the door like a door god holding a wooden stick, Ermazi sighed, touched the stack of golden leaves in his arms, and decided to go find Ermao to eat, drink, gambling in the town.

The older the family is, the less we can't stay here. If we can't marry a wife, we will only be suppressed by our father in our lifetime.

When marrying a wife, Ermazi remembered a delicate and delicate woman, and then sighed and walked faster.

...

"Guess what's in it?" Manager Liu, who had been busy until the night, entered the bedroom with a heavy box, and whispered to the woman who came in to help light the light and pour water with a mysterious face.

"What precious thing is not jewelry or jade?" The woman carefully lit the candle and helped Manager Liu take off her coat.

"Madam, please see!" Manager Liu lifted the lid and instantly a yellow light emitted under the candlelight, and the two of them had their faces turned golden.

"Wow, so much gold?" The woman exclaimed and covered her mouth, and quickly turned around and inserted the door of the room.

"Husband, why do you suddenly have so much gold? Where did it come from?" The woman excitedly picked up a handful of gold leaves and asked.

"This is the bonus issued by the construction site today. Several customers used gold to pay part of the down payment, a total of more than 1,000 taels, and I divided it into 240 taels!" Manager Liu sat down with a smile and drank tea.

"We have saved more than 100 taels for decades. My husband has only earned more than 200 taels after less than a month from the construction site. Have you made this Xiaolongwan Harbor so much money? I heard that the people in the town are discussing very well..." The woman looked through the gold in the box and asked.

"You don't know, that's not called making money at all!" Manager Liu's smile gradually turned into a weird thing that was so unclear that it was unknown.

"What's the point of making money if you don't call it?" the woman asked without raising her head.

"That's called robbing money..." Manager Liu said quietly.

"Get money?" The woman was frightened and looked up at her man.

"Well, it's not accurate to say robbing money. In fact, it's like a group of fools rushing to deliver money, and... don't want to..." Manager Liu suddenly stared at the box of gold.

"Huh, I was shocked. As long as it was given by others willingly, I would be relieved!" The woman continued to count gold happily, and from time to time she picked up a piece and bit it gently with her teeth. She also pulled down a golden hairpin from her head and compared it with the candlelight to compare and check the quality.

"No need to see, they are all barefoot real gold, and they are not fake. After meeting Zhao Dalang, I realized what business is and what making money is..." Manager Liu said in a daze after taking a sip of tea.

"By the way, since our Liu family and Zhao Dalang are working together in business, we will divide 240 taels. How much did Zhao Dalang and the others share?" the woman suddenly asked curiously.

"Five hundred and eighty taels, what?" Manager Liu replied.

"So much? Husband, our Liu family in the harbor paid a big 50,000 taels of silver. The building materials craftsmen are all in charge of our Liu family. They didn't do anything, why did they get more than us?" The woman was a little dissatisfied.

"Woman's opinion!" Manager Liu put the teacup on the table and glanced at his wife with dissatisfaction, "You only know one thing but not the other. From the beginning to now, this Xiaolongwan Harbor really has nothing to do with our Liu family. Now it is all Zhao Dalang's credit to being able to earn so much money. Our Liu family has done almost nothing. If it were other families, they would make a lot of money. A few days ago, the people at home quarreled to withdraw their shares, but it was a whole day. If they really retreated, I'm afraid that the old men in the clan would cry to death. Do you know that we made money just today?"

"How many?" the woman asked a little nervously.

"One,270,000 guan..."

"God, why are there so many...?" The woman sat on the chair with a frightened voice. After a while, she came to her senses, she said anxiously, "Didn't you say a few days ago that many people have refunded money? Why are there so many suddenly today?"

"Duke Chongguo!" Manager Liu said softly.

"What's the matter with Duke Chongguo? He just came to Yanggong Town to take a look..."

"Oh, my hair is long and my knowledge is short. You can put away the gold first. I will call the owners of each room to divide it tomorrow and let someone prepare hot water for me to wash. I am tired for a day today and I can't stand it anymore..." Manager Liu shook his head depressedly.

"Dalang, do you have to share these gold?" The woman obviously couldn't bear to leave.

"It's a bit big. You didn't see Zhao Dalang's generous share of gold. The box hit the table and let everyone take it according to their share. After getting enough, the rest is his. It's so bold. It's really generous. For the first time, I really saw what it means to regard money as dirt. Many of the farmers in Maowan Village have divided dozens of taels of gold, and he has only divided more than 200 taels of gold. After the Xiaolongwan Port is repaired next year, our Liu family will earn at least one million yuan. Maowan Village will instantly create a group of wealthy families. These people follow Zhao Dalang. Perhaps in two or three years, they will have wealth that is as rich as the country. Our Liu family must follow him closely. Go and have someone to bring hot water. I'm tired and will get up early tomorrow!"

"Okay, I'll go now!" The woman quickly called in two maids, carried the wooden box containing gold to the side room and put it away, and then ordered the servant to prepare hot water to serve Manager Liu for a bath.

After washing, Manager Liu went to bed and found two beautiful little maids, who were wearing loose clothes and untied clothes, climbing onto the bed, and quickly waved their hands and said, "What are you doing? Madam, why haven't you come to sleep yet?"

"Mrs. I told us to serve the master to sleep tonight. She should watch out for the gold brought back by the master so that people would not be stolen!" The two maids who were stripped naked quickly said.

Manager Liu was amused and cried, and sighed and nodded, "Okay, you two will serve you from today. Tomorrow I will ask the housekeeper to give you the monthly routine of 10 months!"

"Thank you, sir!" The two little maids kowtowed happily, and then climbed onto Manager Liu, one left and one right to serve.

...

It's late at night.

Well, I must say late at night.

Although the lights in Yanggong Town, not far from next door, are still lively, almost every family in Maowan Village has turned off and fall asleep quietly. Occasionally, a few dog barking and a few lights are the lanterns for those who return home late.

Zhao Qi sat alone outside the cave for half an hour, watching the lights of several neighbors such as A'an, Li Gui and Liu, all turned off one after another, and finally only the stars and flying fireflies were left.

"Xiaoqi, the hot water is ready. You go in and take a hot shower and go to bed early!" A woman behind her slowly walked behind him with an oil lamp in her hand and said softly.

"Sister A Lian, please go to wash and go to bed first, so that Baoer will not go to bed late. I will go to fetch water by myself later, so you don't have to worry about it!" Zhao Qi turned around and looked at the woman and said with a smile.

"Then... I'll go to bed first, hot water is in the pot, and I put my clothes and shoes under the pergola!" A Lian said softly and slowly turned around and entered the cave.

Listening to the slight sound of water coming from the cave, and then slowly returned to calm, I guess that A Lian and Grandma Xiaozhu had already slept, Zhao Qi walked into the cave.

There was an oil lamp on the bamboo table under the awning, and the wooden basin, bath towel, pajamas and slippers were placed neatly on the table. Zhao Qi felt a little warmth in his heart, so he brushed his teeth and took a shower. After washing, he went into the house and closed the door and lay on the thick straw mat.

His room was given to A Lian and Baoer. After the storage room was collected, there was no bed, so two straw mats were laid on the ground, but the bedding was laid cleanly and tidy. Even Zhao Qi's draft paper that he usually wrote and painted was neatly stacked on the pillow.

It seems that the matter of repairing a house should be put on the agenda as soon as possible. There is no shortage of money at the moment. Tomorrow, Yang Dahu will help you to buy some wood, stone and building materials, and find some craftsmen to repair the house quickly.

However, with more people, this house needs to be built with a few more rooms, and the stables, pigpens and chicken pens have to be built. The project volume is not small.

In the future, I have to come and go to the construction site frequently and get a carriage that can shelter from the wind and rain.

Zhao Qi had already thought about this carriage. To make it into four wheels, and to make the four-wheeled carriage flexibly, it had to be designed as a bridge chassis. Although the principle is not complicated, it still had to find a craftsman who knows how to make carriages to provide guidance.

In addition to repairing houses and building carriages, one more important thing is to go back to Yin County to thank Wu Qian, and you have to prepare a decent gift.

Although gold, silver, silk and other things look quite expensive to ordinary people, I am afraid that Wu Qian’s family will not be short of them.

What is better to give?

Zhao Qi was lying on the ground, his eyes closed and he was thinking randomly. He heard a slight sound of footsteps outside in the darkness. Then with a creaking sound, the empty door was pushed open, and a delicate figure appeared at the door.

"Sister A Lian~" Zhao Qi opened his eyes in surprise and sat up.

"Xiaoqi~" The woman hesitated for a moment and gently closed the door, then walked up and sat next to Zhao Qi.

"Sister A Lian, are you not asleep yet?" Zhao Qi asked softly, breathing the faint fragrance of the chrysanthemums emitted from her body.

"Xiaobao just fell asleep. I know you can't sleep, so I come here to accompany you!" The woman's voice was very soft. Although she couldn't see her pretty cheeks clearly, her delicate body and fierce heartbeat under her thin pajamas were clearly audible, which instantly made Zhao Qi feel a little dry and his breathing became slightly heavier.

Feeling Zhao Qi's changes, the woman lowered her head in shame and said, "Xiaoqi, what happened last time..."

"Sister A Lian, I didn't have anything last time. You and I are back safely. This is the best ending. Life is only a few decades short, so what else can you not be able to see? As long as you live, it is better than anything else!" Zhao Qi held the woman in his arms a little savagely.

"Xiaoqi..." The woman was moved instantly, and tears fell down as soon as she turned red.

"Don't cry, don't cry, so as not to wake Bao'er and Xiaozhu up!" Zhao Qi reached out and wiped the tears from her face and comforted her.

The woman covered her mouth tightly and leaned in Zhao Qi's arms sobbed for a moment, then wiped away her tears and raised her head, gently stroked Zhao Qi's cheek and said, "Xiaoqi, you are tired, can I help you?"

"Okay!" Zhao Qi lay down slowly, and the woman's hands gently stroked Zhao Qi's neck and chest gently.

In the quiet broken kiln hut, with a slight breathing sound, it gradually became an uncontrollable hum, and then turned into pleasure and joy. In the quiet night, it sounded very clear.

Xiaozhu and Baoer both slept peacefully in the bed, only the old lady Su on the side woke up from her sleep, opened her eyes and listened for a moment, then muttered softly and fell asleep again.
