Chapter 764 He is very supportive
After collecting the money, Yang Ruoqing asked Ning Su: "When will Tang Yazi come back?"
This trip went over mountains and rivers to deliver medicinal materials.
Besides selling medicinal materials, what she wanted most was to meet him.
Ning Su thought for a moment and said, "If things go smoothly, I should be back before noon tomorrow."
Tomorrow noon?
Yang Ruoqing thought about it for a moment and said, well, she can wait for him.
If it takes too long, three to five days, even if she is willing to wait, others in the team may not be able to calm down.
We are all traveling with our families and have been away from home for four days.
It would take four days to return the way we came. If we were delayed for too long in the meantime, my family would also be worried.
"Then I'll start back the next morning." Yang Ruoqing said.
When Tang Yazi comes back at noon tomorrow, we will have two meals together and set off early the next morning. The transport team will be almost rested.
Ning Su nodded: "Okay!"
"Although this town is not too big, merchants from all over the world have settled here, and the products are quite complete."
"Qing'er, if you are bored today, you can take a stroll in the town. Maybe you can also find one or two novelties."
He continued.
Yang Ruoqing smiled happily: "That must be done!"
Shopping is her favorite.
Ning Su added: "Tang Yazi is not here. I should have taken you around as a landlord, but there are many affairs in the army. I..."
Seeing the guilt in Ning Su's eyes, Yang Ruoqing interrupted him.
"Brother Ning, you don't need to blame yourself, we are not outsiders."
She smiled and said: "You can just go about your own business. We have a place to stay, and we have some money on hand. I want to go back to sleep and go shopping. I feel at ease!"
Ning Su felt relieved after hearing Yang Ruoqing's words.
He stood up to say goodbye, and Yang Ruoqing also stood up to see him to the door of the house.
He suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked her: "Did Brother Feng Tang tell you about the promotion?"
"What?"
Yang Ruoqing was stunned for a moment.
Seeing her confused look, Ning Su suddenly understood and then smiled.
"Brother Fengtang has not been in the army for a long time, but he has performed outstandingly in the army."
"Especially in the last round when the task of encircling and suppressing bandits in Heifeng Village was heavy, he showed bravery and made great contributions."
"I and General Xiahou jointly submitted a letter to ask for credit for him."
"Now, Brother Fengtang has been promoted to military leader, and he is in charge of a team of hundreds of people. Those soldiers all support him..."
What?
Has Tang Yazi become a small boss?
The smile on Yang Ruoqing's face suddenly brightened.
In his eyes, there is even more pride and pride that cannot be concealed.
"Well, he performed well. When he comes back tomorrow, I will give him a good reward and let him keep up the good work!"
She said with a smile.
Ning Su also smiled and nodded: "Then I will go back to the military camp first and come back to you later."
"It's okay, Brother Ning, you are busy with your business."
After seeing Ning Su off, Yang Ruoqing was still leaning against the door, thinking about Luo Fengtang's appointment as military leader.
The more I think about it, the happier I become, the more I think about it, the more excited I become, and the more I think about it, the more proud I become.
This is the man Yang Ruoqing has chosen, he is destined to be extraordinary!
"Girl, what good thing have you thought of? You're almost smiling to the side!"
A joking voice suddenly came, pulling her back from her thoughts.
I looked up and saw that it was Li Dayer.
"I won't tell you!"
She was in a good mood, pursed her lips and smiled at Li Daer, saying deliberately.
Li Dayer grinned and was about to go back to the house when she called him again.
"Big Ears, call all the brothers to my room and tell them that they will be paid."
After saying this, she turned around and went back to the house to wait.
Here, Li Daer's eyes lit up when he heard this.
He quickly stepped into the room and quickly called out the others who were taking a nap.
"Quick, quick, quick, the boss girl is calling us to pay..."
Everyone stood up in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, they were all in Yang Ruoqing's room.
Yang Ruoqing looked at the people in front of her and pursed her lips with a smile.
He took out the money that Ning Su had brought over and put it on the table. He also took out a book and read it to them.
What is recorded in the booklet is the type of medicinal materials delivered on this trip, the amount, the unit price, and how much it was sold for...
Those who can read can see clearly at a glance.
Even those who can't read can hear clearly.
"... As mentioned above, the total price of the medicinal materials for this trip is ninety taels of silver."
After Yang Ruoqing finished speaking, she put down the booklet and looked at the people in front of her.
"The brothers' salary, according to the rules we formulated before, including the distance traveled and the selling price of the escorted goods, the remuneration distributed to the brothers should be..."
While she was talking, Chang Geng was clicking the abacus at the side.
"Two taels of silver!"
Chang Geng reported loudly.
Yang Ruoqing nodded secretly, that's right.
Two taels of silver?
Everyone was stunned when they heard this number.
We are all farmers, and our families live on a few acres of land.
All year round, the vegetables in the vegetable garden provide for the family's livelihood.
The cotton in the fields provides clothing, quilts and shoes for the whole family.
Rapeseed is ground into rapeseed oil, which is used by the family for cooking, but they have to save some.
After deducting the excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes from the rice and wheat in the fields, what is left is just the family's rations.
Even so, there is still more than a month of drought every year.
If the harvest is not good enough, the period of hunger will be longer.
So, it means relying on the harvests in the fields to make sure that the family does not starve to death or freeze to death.
Apart from this, there is not much food left.
During the slack season, men with carpentry and masonry skills would go out to find some work to supplement their family income.
But this is just a drop in the bucket.
Therefore, farmers have to raise two pigs and raise a few chickens and ducks, regardless of whether they have enough food to eat.
From the beginning to the end of the year, pigs, chickens and ducks are fed with rice husks, wild vegetables, swill, etc.
Eggs, chickens and ducks can be used to improve children's meals during the holidays, as a token of appreciation.
When the pig gets bigger, it can be sold for money.
The family can only rely on these two pigs for money for living expenses throughout the year, money for visits to relatives and friends, money for interpersonal relationships, or money for medical treatment and medicine.
Pigs are called treasures because they are the hope and hope of farmers.
If you are unlucky, the pig will develop swine fever.
It was really a waste of work, and I couldn't even pay back the cost of catching Piggy.
Even with good luck, the two pigs pulled together and were successfully slaughtered and sold.
Even the leather straps are sold for more than two taels of silver when they are so full of flesh.
Moreover, the cost of the feeding process has not been deducted from the two taels of silver...
Now, four days after I left here, I escorted a shipment of goods to the south.
Food, drink, and accommodation are all included on the road, and you can still get two taels of pure money in settlement!
It is equivalent to the savings that a family works hard for all year round!
Just make a trip and get two taels of silver?
Everyone recovered from the shock, and everyone was so happy that they almost grinned to the side.
Baozhu said excitedly: "I made two taels of silver in one trip. This is much easier than raising big fat pigs at home."
"Haha, I will ask my wife to stop raising pigs later. ********* can just take care of the children for me. It will be too hard to carry the children up the mountain to dig wild vegetables!"
Yuzhu held the two taels of silver in his hand and said excitedly: "I made two taels in one trip. Four taels of silver can buy me a wife. Haha, I made half a wife in this trip!"
"Brother, if I make a few more trips, my wife will already have enough money, so my parents won't have to worry about you anymore!"
Everyone else around them also had their own plans.
Chapter completed!
