Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

The two brothers arrived at the village chief's house. The village chief's wife watched the old man go out excitedly, but came back with a big face. It must have happened to something. Thinking of Wang Laoliu, the village chief's wife couldn't help being angry and made a big deal out of it. Officials have smaller minds than women.

Wang Xiubo thought that the village head was looking for his younger brother to come here because of the poultry cub, so he asked Grandma Tang, where is the cub, he came in a hurry without a basket, how to bring him home?How to raise it after returning home?What should I pay attention to?Wang Xiubo asked earnestly. After raising these cubs, chickens will lay eggs, and eggs will lay chickens. The eggs can be sold for money, which can increase some profits, and can also save my sister from embroidering more patterns. I have never seen my sister arrive in one day in Beijing before Wan quietly holds the embroidery needle, now... thinking about it makes her feel a little more distressed, and even annoyed that she is useless.

The village chief's wife sounded strange, she had prepared poultry cubs, but it was not time to send them to Lao Liu's house, and it would take a few more days to hatch them.Looking at the village chief in confusion, he went out early in the morning just to tell Tian Ding about Zizi?Immediately thinking of the situation of the old six's family, the village chief's wife couldn't help but sigh. "Boy, Grandma Tang will help raise it for a few more days, and send it to you when the time comes."

ah?What is the village chief looking for?Wang Xiubo looked at his younger brother, and then thought about what his younger brother said before?What does brother want to do?Do you want to be a servant?I don't know how Wang Xiubai's brain circuit is twisted, and I don't know how he made up his mind to connect his younger brother with the servant, and he feels sad and blames himself for tears.

The village head called Tian Ding aside. He originally wanted the two of them to go to the city early to find a craftsman he knew to get out the farm tools. It is not too late to enter the city now, but looking at Tian Ding's eldest brother, the village head hesitated. It's not that he doesn't believe in Wang Xiubo. If he can say that he can't take the imperial examination and go to work to support his family, let the village chief take a look at him. At least he is more awake than Lao Liu.The village chief is worried that the more people who know, the more he will be unable to keep his word. Now he still doesn’t know what kind of farm tools are made. Still not sure how to toss, what he came up with after looking at Tianding is extraordinary.

As for what will happen after the event, we can only talk about it at that time.The village chief sighed silently for Tian Ding in his heart. If the sixth child is good, there is no need for him to take care of it. The sixth child can handle things properly.Old Sixth, Old Sixth, I can only hope that he will come to Qingming soon. If it is too late, the hearts of the children will be broken. In the future, I will provide for him to provide for the elderly. Hope is also for fame, not sincerity.

Leaving the sixth child aside, the village head asked his wife to call Wang Xiubai away, while he hurried to the city with Tianding.When the two entered the city, they found a craftsman who was also from Wang Village. After explaining their intentions, the village chief asked Tian Ding to draw the appearance.Tian Ding squatted on the ground to draw, and the craftsman squatted aside to watch, and asked questions from time to time.Tian Ding explained it very patiently. The more the craftsman listened, the more serious he became. The village chief followed suit. Tian Ding didn't talk so much yesterday, but now he feels that this thing is extraordinary.

"Uncle, don't worry, my nephew will do my best." The craftsman stood up with a serious expression on his face. If this thing can be made, it will surely relieve the laboring farmers of many burdens.

"How much will it cost?" The village chief took out his purse and wanted to pay.It doesn't matter whether the things benefit the neighbors or not, if you use other people's things to create things, you have to pay.

The craftsman hurriedly gave way, "Uncle, this is a good deed to benefit the neighbors. As far as my nephew is concerned, it is only a matter of leftovers, so how can I collect money." No matter what, I can't collect this money, "If uncle I feel that my nephew is at a loss, and in the future, whenever someone asks where I can make this thing, my uncle will give my nephew a good word."

"You ghost, can uncle say that you did it?" The village head was happy, and he didn't push back the payment.Tian Ding looked at the craftsman and thought to himself that this person would do things.The village chief asked when it would be ready, and the craftsman immediately told him that it would take at most three days, and then he would deliver it himself when it was ready.After the village chief nodded, he led the craftsman two steps in, and told him to keep this matter a secret, and the craftsman responded repeatedly.Tian Ding listened outside and looked closely at the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in the yard. After seeing it, he was amazed that the craftsmanship of the craftsmen was amazing.

When the old and the young returned to the village, they dismissed the incident, and Tian Ding returned home with his elder brother.On the road, Tian Ding stopped and started thinking about how to talk to his elder brother. Wang Xiubai was also thinking about something in his heart, and wanted to ask Tian Ding and his grandfather why they went to the city. He was worried that Tian Ding would be a servant to serve others for his family.

"Brother, I have something to say!" Tim Ding was two steps behind his elder brother, hesitating again and again before opening his mouth. Seeing that the craftsmen seem to be confident in making it today, Tim Ding remembered the very high priced rice he had heard before. , One is Wuchang rice, the other is crab field rice, and Akita Komachi, etc. It is green food, and only the person who grows it knows whether it is really green or not.Now Akita Komachi, Wuchang don't think about it, you can try Kanida rice.

A few big words "It's finally here" flashed in Wang Xiubai's mind, his face was bitter, but he still stiffened, "Don't mention the work, if you do it, you should be your brother." Wang Xiubai said sharply , without the usual gentle appearance.

Tian Ding was stunned for a while, then laughed out loud, "Brother is so funny, "Brother is too worried, how can I go to work."

"It's even worse to be a servant." Wang Xiubai's face became stricter, and his younger brother could still laugh.

"Brother thinks too much. I will neither be a servant nor a worker." Tian Ding smiled, and his heart was warm. The elder brother can't be a pillar right now, but he really thinks about his family. "I want to talk about our land. We have five mu of land, three mu of rice, one mu of wheat, and one mu of sweet potatoes. I want to raise crabs for two mu out of the three mu of rice."

"Ah! Oh!" Wang Xiubai didn't know anything about farming, so he didn't know what's wrong with raising crabs. Hearing that his younger brother didn't go to work, he felt relieved.

"Brother, what my father said today, my younger brother thinks it should be done."

"Tian Ding don't want to bring this up again, I've made up my mind, don't persuade me." Wang Xiubo shook his head, his younger brother said that if he didn't work hard, when would the field be finished? Bar!Between planting and harvesting, they still have to live, and money must be settled first. The pressure of the family must not fall on younger siblings, and he cannot take it for granted like his father.

"Brother, listen to me." Tian Ding had a lot of opinions on his father in his heart, but he could not be beaten or scolded. In ancient times, "filial piety" was as big as the sky. This word alone can crush people to death, no matter what the antecedents are Well, others will only talk about the younger generation, in fact, not only in ancient times, even in later generations, most people will make a big fuss about "birth grace".At the end of the world, no one cares about morality and ethics, just to live.

Tian Ding looked at his elder brother with a face of "you tell me, it's up to me to listen or not" helplessly, "brother, my younger brother has no desire to study, just want to be able to read and write. What he said this morning is the number one scholar, and he doesn't want to work What people mean is to do business.”

Wang Xiubai frowned, "Why do you need to farm land if you want to do business?"

"Brother, there are hundreds of kinds of businessmen. Our family has no backer and background, so we can only find one to exploit." Tian Ding looked at his elder brother seriously, and I believe his elder brother can hear the meaning of what he said. "One of the merchants is grain merchants."

Wang Xiubai nodded, now he understands his younger brother's intentions, the grain merchants are engaged in the trade of grain, and the goods are grain, their family farms, they have grain, but the grain at home is not enough to support a grain store.

"Backstage requires big brother to work hard, but for the net worth, I want to make a small living after the spring plowing." Tian Ding didn't play around with big brother either.

"My younger brother said before that an older brother's temperament is not suitable for an official, so why did he persuade me to be an older brother?" Wang Xiubo smiled wryly. Before that, he only wanted to take the imperial examination, but he wanted to revive the family business. After being poured cold water by his younger brother, he saw clearly his problems , Wang Xiubo put down his heart for the imperial examination, and even kept asking himself what is the use of reading books for several years?Words have no strength of character, and no one uses them to copy books.There is no way to support the family, unable to work, and I can't even argue with my younger brother.

"If I can become an official, would my eldest brother be willing to get rid of his deficiencies?" The change of personality does not happen overnight, and the eldest brother is not full of faults. If he can correct his mistakes, it will be so difficult to be an official.

Wang Xiubo seriously thought about his younger brother's words, and also thought about the situation at home, and sighed, "My brother's kindness, I appreciate it."

"Brother, you don't need to respond now. There is still one year left before the scientific examination." Tian Ding was not in a hurry, but just expressed his attitude.Looking at the door of the house from afar, thinking of his father at home, Tim Ding looked at his elder brother, "Before that, elder brother needs to solve a big matter."

Wang Xiubo followed his younger brother's line of sight, and couldn't help but let out another long sigh.

The two were at the door of the house, when they heard the noise in the house, they walked into the house quickly. In the yard, Wang Xiuyun's face was half swollen, and he was obviously slapped. The two brothers were on fire. Looking at the younger sister (sister), the two walked into the house quickly, and then listened to the voice of the mother crying.My mother has changed her prescription recently, and her complexion has improved for a long time, but she still can't worry about it. Is my father looking forward to the family's separation?

"Mother!" Wang Xiubai and Tian Ding rushed into the room, and saw their father fell to the ground, and their mother was crying beside the bed, cursing while crying.The two of them caressed their mother, comforting her while comforting her. As for the father who fell to the ground, no one came to help him.From the mother's crying words, the two of them understood the reason. The two had an argument about the elder brother's matchmaking. The mother pushed the father in a hurry, and the father said a lot of complaints. Then he took the pillow and threw it at his father with great effort. The father should not be able to argue with the mother, and when he saw that the daughter hadn't cooked at noon, he took his anger on the daughter and slapped her. The mother immediately quit and waited for the father to come in. , the mother threw the medicine bowl on the father's head.

Tian Ding didn't know what his elder brother was thinking, but he thought it was a good throw!
