Behind me is the earth

"Xiaowan, what's going on?"

When Ren Pingsheng got up early in the morning and set up his airs in the yard to practice martial arts, he saw the window of the west wing open, and Xiaowan was writing something at the table by the window.

"Settling accounts."

Xiaowan looked up at her young master, then continued to write and draw with her head down.

“How much money do you have left this year?”

Ren Pingsheng asked.

"Just thinking about it."

Xiaowan replied.

Then, the sound of Ren Pingsheng practicing was heard in the courtyard.

The wind in the yard suddenly became stronger and whistled, but one couldn't help but think of a saying: cloud follows the dragon and wind follows the tiger.

The branches of the pomegranate tree in the yard swayed wildly.

Xiaowan looked up at Ren Pingsheng, and felt that the young master's martial arts training was becoming more and more powerful, and he looked quite powerful!

I think the young master must have improved a lot in his practice.

The beating lasted for an hour and a half, and Ren Pingsheng slowly finished his work.

Since getting the essential oil, Ren Pingsheng has woken up from eight o'clock in the morning to seven o'clock in the morning, and has been washing and eating at nine o'clock, which lasts two hours.

Today I am going back to Liujiacun with everyone, so I will finish my work early.

"Is it settled?"

Ren Pingsheng looked up and saw Xiao Wan holding her chin in both hands and looking at him with blinking eyes.

"There are still 730 taels of silver left this year."

Xiao Wan said: "Excluding the personnel and daily expenses, plus the expenses of martial arts training, farms, taxes, daily expenses, as well as the expenses of purchasing land, furs, herbal medicines, consumption of various workshops, etc., plus other miscellaneous expenses, we are now There are still 730 taels of silver left."

"The savings are really not that much."

Ren Pingsheng took the hot towel handed over by Ruhua and wiped the sweat from his face.

Considering Ningxiangzhai's income of two thousand and two thousand taels in one month, only 730 silver was left in the end, which is not much.

Xiaowan nodded.

730 taels of silver was a number that she could not even imagine before.

But now, Xiaowan clasped her fingers and calculated carefully: "In the beginning of next year, we will need a lot of money to prepare a business and form a caravan.

One is to hire someone with business experience as a guide.

Second, according to the agreement with the Qingcheng Escort Bureau, a team of escorts must each pay a deposit of 2 taels of silver before traveling.

The third is to buy a carriage. At the current price of horses, just ten horses cost 750 taels. According to your idea, young master, two caravans, one going to Feng County and one going to Dongyang County, will have to buy at least six carriages.

In addition, there is also a lot of investment in workshops planned for next year. "

"Well, when you start a business, it takes a long time to achieve success. Let's do it step by step. Let's eat first. After eating, we should go back to the village to celebrate the New Year."

Ren Pingsheng came to this world and joined Liujia Village.

Whether it was for Ren Pingsheng or Liujia Village, the old village chief always tried his best to help him with his affairs.

I have only been out for two months, so it would be inappropriate not to go back during the Chinese New Year.

After finishing the medicinal meal and breakfast, the four maids carried the luggage and sent Master Ren and Butler Xiaowan to the gate.

Here, Erniu has already hitched the carriage, and Liu Qiang and the others have also packed their gifts and are waiting here.

"Master!"

It can be seen that Liu Qiang and the others are in high spirits.

After all, I have been out for more than two months, and now that the holiday is approaching, I feel a little homesick.

Ren Pingsheng took a quick look and saw that everyone was wearing new clothes. They were all in high spirits, obviously wanting to show their best side to the villagers in Liujiacun.

Even Chen Dachui put on the clothes Xiaowan specially made for him at Chen's tailor shop, carrying an iron rod on his back.

Compared with when he came out two months ago, he ate and drank enough every day, took medicinal diet to maintain his health, and insisted on practicing martial arts every day. He was much taller and his body became stronger. Now he is just going there. Once you stop, you are quite powerful!

"Very good, very energetic!"

Ren Pingsheng smiled.

At this time, the four maids had already placed his greetings on the carriage.

Several people boarded the carriage. The spacious carriage became a little crowded because of the many salutes.

The horse took some heavy steps and pulled the car slowly away from Ren's mansion. The horseshoes collided with the bluestone bricks, making a "ding-ding" sound.

"Huh~"

Until the carriage gradually disappeared, Wang Shu stretched his waist, his chest pushed up the clothes on his chest, and Ru Hua, who glanced at him casually, couldn't help but have a look of envy on his face.

"Are you going home during the Chinese New Year?"

Siqi suddenly asked.

Everyone was startled and silent.

"I won't go back. Ever since my parents sold me, I have no home."

Ruhua kicked a piece of gravel under his feet a little lonely.

"I won't go back either. I already belong to the master, and it's not appropriate to go home again. Besides, my father is a gambler, so it would be a shame to go back during the New Year."

After Wang Shu finished speaking, he turned around and headed towards Ren Mansion.

"What about you, Sister Qingyin."

Siqi asked.

"I'm not going back either, where are you Si Qi?"

Qingyin smiled softly and shook her head.

"I have a younger brother at home, and the master gave me a reward. I think..."

Siqi said with some hesitation.

Qingyin put her hand around Siqi's arm, pulled her towards the house, and said softly: "Master Renyi did not prohibit us from going home.

We were all sold by our family members, and we have no home since then. It’s just a fair transaction where money and goods are settled, one hand pays the money and the other hand delivers the goods..."

Qingyin chuckled, and then said: "You are different. You sold yourself for your younger brothers and sisters at home. Now that you can afford to go home and have a look, just go home and have a look.

You can also take this. Normally, unlike Ruhua and others, I would buy some flowers, powder, candied haws, etc., but I can’t spend them. "

With that said, Qingyin took out a small purse from her chest, poured out some copper coins and gave it to Siqi.

"Sister Qingyin, I can't want..."

"Take it."

Huzi watched the two sisters turn around the screen wall and enter the inner house, and then looked at the man making candy at the door. He couldn't help but swallowed: "Lao Pei, you are already twenty-nine, why don't you go home to celebrate the New Year? "

"Go, you called me Lao Pei, little boy."

Lao Pei glanced at him: "We have a baby this year, and my mother-in-law's milk supply is always not enough. I have to make more money. I will buy a crucian carp to stew in the afternoon to supplement her.

We don't have Master Ren's ability, so we have to work hard and find ways to earn some copper coins. "

"Hey, Lao Pei, you still want to compare with me, what kind of person am I, how can you compare to me?

Give me a candy man, I want this, this looks good. "

Hu Zi came up to Sugar Man Pei and ordered a little rabbit. The little rabbit had a red cloak on it, and the candy was bright, making it look pretty and sweet.

"OK."

When Sugar Man Pei saw Huzi taking care of his business, he stopped paying attention to his teasing.

He just said: "Master Ren is really benevolent and righteous. Even you, the concierge boy, can get rewards during the holidays."

"That is."

Huzi took the candy man and smiled proudly.
