The words "little landowner" echoed in the hearts of Tian Huairen and others. Although one hundred acres of land was still uncultivated, they were confident that Tian Minyan would not do anything without reason.
Tian Minyan looked at the satisfied expressions of the family and narrowed her eyes with a smile. From now on, their family will get better and better, and then they will laugh even more happily.
She took out a notebook, which was white paper she cut herself. She folded it one by one, drilled two holes on the side, and asked Luo Shi to staple it with thick thread. There were several such notebooks. One of them was a favor.
For transactions, one is for income and expenses, and the other is for accounting. In this way, the expenses at home will be clearly known.
Opening the book of income and expenses, Tian Minyan added the sixty taels spent on buying the land today, including the favors and commissions for the guests, which were all included in the cost, so there was no need for a total of ten taels of silver.
She glanced at the accounting book, then at Tian Minrui, Xiaowu and the others. Determined to pass the exam, she asked: "Brother, Xiaowu, we made a total of fifteen taels of silver from selling jewelry pictures and cakes."
, that Hu Bazi paid one hundred taels in compensation, how much money was it in total?"
Tian Minrui tilted his head, while Xiao Wu tilted his head and counted with his fingers. The two brothers said in unison: "One hundred and fifteen taels."
"Bingo!" Tian Minyan clapped her hands.
"Sister, what is a disease fruit?" Xiao Wu was a little confused and asked curiously: "Is it a disease fruit?"
Tian Minyan smiled, flicked his forehead and said: "You are a foodie, you know how to eat." She also said that bingo means right.
"Who knew there was such a word? My husband didn't teach me." Xiao Wu shrugged his nose.
Tian Minyan thought to herself, of course the teacher didn’t teach it, because he couldn’t teach it, because this is a 21st century poem, how could an ancient person know it?
Then, Tian Minyan tested the two brothers Tian Minrui on several transactions. Except for Xiaowu's miscalculation, Tian Minrui got everything right, and seemed to be naturally sensitive to numbers.
"Qian'er went to the doctor to get some medicine for my parents. We spent thirty taels and sold the prescriptions for five hundred taels. We gave 10 taels to my grandfather and the others, and five taels to the Liu family. There were also some favors and book repairs for my husband. Two taels.
The plot of land cost the most. Including favors for guests and so on, we spent a total of one hundred and fifty taels of silver. After all the calculations, our family still has..." Tian Minyan looked at the account book and quickly calculated the accounts while saying
: "There are about three hundred and eighty taels left."
"There is still so much money?" Luo Shi's eyes widened when he heard this, and he couldn't believe it.
Don't say she doesn't believe it, even Tian Huairen doesn't believe it, because these days they are treating guests and so on, and they also buy meat and tooth sacrifices from time to time, and add this and other things. It feels like they have spent a lot of money, and he is still worried about not having enough money.
I'm going out to look for work.
"Actually, it's not much." Tian Minyan turned over the box containing the silver title deeds and said, "There are always some that can't be counted. There are only seventy-five taels of silver here, and there are three hundred taels stored in the bank. It looks like a lot, so use it.
It’s not enough.”
"We are not talking about new fields now. Our Tian family alone has 30 acres of land. Counting the 20 acres in Dongkeng, which Xie Laoer sold with the crops, that is 50 acres of land. With our
The family of five is too busy with the summer harvest, so we have to hire part-time workers." Tian Minyan settled the accounts one by one, and then said: "The summer harvest is over, and we will have to sow grain, wheat, and other crops in the autumn. I want to start again.
, that kind of seed and labor are another sum of money. The most important thing is to open up the wasteland. Dad, I want to open up this land quickly before the harvest is busy."
"That's the truth, but the land can't grow anything. It's not fertile." Tian Huairen frowned.
"Dad, don't worry, the ground is not fertile, we can put more fertilizer on it."
Speaking of this, Tian Huairen's eyebrows deepened and he said, "Well, now in Lao Duo Land, our family doesn't even have enough manure."
Tian Minyan also thought about this. Even if she knew that dead leaves could be fertilized, she still had to have excrement. Their family only had one latrine. Even if they went out to pick up excrement every day, you were not the only one who picked it up. Other families also needed fertilizer.
, which is simply not available.
"Tell me, what can you do?"
"If it's not enough, you can only buy it with money." Tian Minrui thought for a while, frowned and said, "There is no one specializing in night fragrance in town. You can ask them for the price."
Luo Shi sighed after hearing this, and said with a wry smile: "Everyone hates night fragrance, but when it comes to use, it really becomes a fragrance. I used to avoid it, but now I have to buy it with money."
"I won't poop or pee outside anymore. I'll poop when I get home." Xiao Wu puffed up his chest and said seriously, "I'll let Erdan and the others come to our latrine to poop again."
"Can't you hold it in in school?" Tian Minyan couldn't help but smile. She pinched his cheeks that had gained a lot of flesh and said, "Don't be stupid. If you hold it in too much, you'll feel sorry for our father and mother. Just go and do it when it's time to hold it in."
Even if the latrine is lacking, it will not be lacking for your little one."
Xiao Wu blushed and said, "I am doing it for my family too."
"Okay, you don't want to leave other people's land." Tian Minrui said with a smile, and the others laughed out loud.
Xiaowu was so embarrassed that he squeezed into Luo Shi's arms and acted coquettishly: "Mom!"
Tian Huairen pulled him out and said with a smile: "Don't squeeze your mother's belly, she is still pregnant with her younger brother and sister."
"It's okay, I'm hiding here. Our Xiaowu is a good brother, so he won't press his younger siblings." Luo Shi pulled Xiaowu back and hugged him with a smile.
"If there is really no fertilizer, then we can only buy it, but this is a small amount, and buying it is not a long-term solution." After Tian Minyan smiled, she said: "But Xiao Wu just reminded me, do I know where the fertilizer is?"
coming."
"What should I say?" Tian Minrui looked at her.
"Didn't Xiaowu say that it would be convenient for Erdan and the others to come to our latrine? We don't have to bring people to come to our latrine for convenience. We can just build a free public toilet for everyone's convenience. Wouldn't there be fertilizer?"
"Public restroom?"
"Oh, that's the public hut." Tian Minyan stuck out her tongue and explained with a smile: "This person has three urgent needs. If he is outside for a while, he can't find a place, especially those wives who are not covered.
, How inconvenient is it? Let’s build a big hut outside for everyone’s convenience. Isn’t there fertilizer?”
Tian Huairen clapped his hands and said excitedly: "This is a good idea."
"I think it works." Tian Minrui also nodded in approval.
"Oh, our Xiao Wu has given us some great advice." Luo Shi smiled and kissed Xiao Wu.
Xiaowu was shy and proud at the same time, and said with a naive smile: "I didn't say anything, it was my sister who came up with it."
Tian Minyan wanted to encourage him and said: "Without you suddenly saying it, I wouldn't have been able to figure it out. Xiaowu is a big contributor."
Is what Xiaowu said true? After thinking about it, it seemed that it was possible, so he smiled so hard that his eyes rolled up, and he said humbly: "This is what it should be, it should be."
