Allure of a Country Maiden

Du Yijin thought about Xiao'er's words and felt that there is reward only if you give. The more you give, the greater the reward.

Their walnuts are made with hard work and energy, and the wild ones are certainly not as good.

Xiaoer and Du Yijin were in disguise, so naturally they couldn't go with the Jingrui brothers.

Otherwise, the two Jingrui brothers just came here specifically to open up the market, and they would be in trouble!

Xiaoer and Du Yijin walked towards the place where the carriage was, talking and laughing.

The two of them walked to the carriage. Du Yijin looked at the bags of silver in his hands and the hands of the maid, but he hesitated.

Carrying two bags of money back to the Du Mansion like this was too intrusive. If Gu found out, he would definitely not be able to live in peace.

She decided to deposit the money in the bank first and exchange it for banknotes, so that it would be safer to hide it on her body.

Du Yijin didn't come out in the family's carriage, she rode Xiaoer's carriage.

Now that I'm going back, I have to go to the bank first, so naturally I can't take Xiaoer's carriage anymore.

"County Master Rui'an, I want to go to the bank first to exchange the money into banknotes, so I won't take your carriage."

After hearing this, Xiaoer said: "I have a banknote here. How about this? Let's go to the Four Seasons Restaurant together. You can count how much money you earn, and then I can exchange it for you with a banknote! This way you don't have to give me any money." Bank."

For every one hundred taels of silver used to exchange for a hundred taels of silver notes, the bank will charge a fee of one hundred taels for the safekeeping of the silver.

"Well, is it convenient for you to carry so much money with you?" Du Yijin hesitated.

If she could afford not to spend more money, of course she would not want to spend more, but she was just worried about causing trouble to Xiaoer.

"There are many shops in my home, and there are many places where cash is needed. It just so happened that we went to eat, count the money, and change into women's clothes at the Four Seasons Restaurant before leaving." Xiaoer explained.

After hearing this, Du Yijin no longer hesitated, got on the carriage, and left.

The two walked into the Four Seasons Restaurant and bumped into the son of a wealthy businessman who had sold "Tiger Head" sesame walnuts in the morning.

As soon as he saw Xiao'er and the two of them, he happily greeted them loudly: "Did you two earn money to eat delicious food?"

Xiaoer:......

Du Yijin:......

Is this person speaking too directly? Even if they make money, they don't want the whole world to know about it!

"I'm hungry, so I came to eat." Xiaoer didn't care about him and said with a smile.

"Will you still sell walnuts tomorrow? I will bring more friends to help you buy them tomorrow!" the wealthy businessman's son said happily.

What a loyal repeat customer!

Xiaoer smiled and replied: "Then I would like to thank you for your kindness. See you tomorrow! Let's go in for dinner first!"

The wealthy businessman's son nodded.

Xiaoer and Du Yijin walked in.

Gu Honggen, who had lost all his money and owed a huge debt, had just walked out of the gambling house. He stood on the roadside and looked at the figure at the door of the Four Seasons Restaurant. He looked familiar. Isn't that that little bitch Du Yijin? He has seen her since childhood, and even if she is dressed as a man, he will not be mistaken!

She sells green walnuts? Did you make money?

In the gambling shop just now, he heard that many literati like to play with walnuts, so today many people on Wenwan Street are betting on green-skinned walnuts. Some people sold this wild fruit for a high price of ten taels of silver each. This is simply a golden fruit.

He thought of Mrs. Gu's complaint a while ago that Du Chun'an and Du Yijin cut down many good peach trees in Zhuangzi at the beginning of the year and planted a lot of walnuts. This year's peach harvest in Zhuangzi was reduced by half, and Du Yijin was stingy and only took one basket. When she went home to feed her father, she didn't even catch half of it! Not to mention that you can take baskets and baskets back to your parents’ home like in previous years!

If the wild fruit is sold for ten taels of silver each, how many walnuts can there be on one tree? He doesn't know this, but one hundred or dozens of them can't escape! One tree earns one thousand two hundred taels! Many walnut trees were planted, but how many thousand taels of silver were planted?

my God! Make a fortune this time!

Gu Honggen's eyes glowed blue when he thought of the walnut trees in Du's village that were covered with ten taels of silver! The Du family became rich overnight! His gambling debts were settled.

He wanted to go to his aunt quickly and tell her this big happy event.

No, the control of the Du family is no longer in the hands of my aunt! She only has one hundred coins of pocket money every month!

Gu Honggen thought of the two black cloth bags that the maid behind Du Yijin was carrying. Could it be that those two bags were silver?

Gu Honggen rubbed his hands excitedly, his feet trembling a little.

This is a behavior he only shows when he is particularly lucky.

He decided to wait for Du Yijin to come out and see if the two bags were silver!

He had just lost a thousand taels of silver, and was planning to go to Du's village to pick some green-skinned walnuts and sell them back to pay off his gambling debt.

If those two bags were really silver, and he took the opportunity to borrow them for use, maybe after paying off his gambling debt, he would still have some money to gamble and win back the money he lost.

Gu Honggen thought happily.

Xiaoer took Du Yijin to the private room of Four Seasons Restaurant. Xiaoer ordered a few dishes, and after the meal, the two of them started counting their money.

Xiaoer likes to count money.

Du Yijin didn't count money before, but now she found that she fell in love with this feeling.

Du Yijin couldn't believe that this amount actually amounted to an income of more than a thousand taels of silver.

It's a pity that her walnuts were newly planted this year, and they don't bear many fruits. The ones that can be sold have been sold out today.

"County Master Ruian, how do you know those walnuts can be sold for ten taels of silver?" Du Yijin asked the question she had wanted to ask for a long time.

Xiaoer smiled after hearing this. Wenwan walnuts have been around since ancient times. In modern times, green-skin walnuts can be sold for about three to five hundred to one thousand yuan per pair.

In this era, most of the people who can become literati and poets have money. There are more literati and poets with money in the imperial capital, and most of them have good faces.

They pursue all the arty things. Fortunately, the medical technology here is not developed enough and there is no medical technology for kidney transplantation. Otherwise, someone would probably sell their kidneys to buy walnuts.

"Playing with walnuts is an elegant thing, it is their pursuit, and it cannot be measured by vulgar things like silver." Xiaoer explained.

Du Yijin: I can’t understand it. She can’t do such a thing anyway.

Probably because of fear of poverty.

Xiaoer gave Du Yijin a thousand taels of silver notes in exchange for one thousand taels of cash.

The two said a few more words and left.

Yangliu and Yangmei each carried a bag of silver and followed Xiaoer out.

Gu Honggen, whose feet were weak, mentally greeted all the eighteen generations of Du Yijin's ancestors, and then finally saw her walking out.

Looking at Du Yijin in women's clothing, he knew that he had seen it right!

He saw Yangliu carrying the black bag that Du Yijin's maid was carrying just now, and didn't think much about it, thinking that she was just helping to carry it.

Without thinking, he rushed out and reached out to grab the black bag in Yang Liu's hand.

"Cousin, borrow some money and I'll pay it back to you tonight!"

Thank you Heise??qing for the reward, and thank you book friends who voted~~
