Longevity: Beginning from Becoming a Clan Leader

In fact.

Just as Chen Nuo expected.

Black gold paste, a hair dye, has never appeared in the current market.

Moreover, as an ordinary small town, the big families here are not really big families, but they also have a lot of spare money, and they are fully capable and qualified to spend money on things like black gold paste.

The target population is also very accurate. These people with a lot of spare money will naturally pay attention to their appearance.

A head of black and shiny hair like a young or middle-aged man will still be popular.

With the help of Chen Shuiwen's regular customers, some people bought some more or less.

"Well, Brother Shuiwen, can you give me some? I have been selling these sugar figures for many years, and I have also recognized some people. It's okay for several people to pool money to buy them."

The speaker is the Chen clan member in the town, named Chen Tangren.

The family has always sold sugar figures. This profession is also called sugar boy, which can be subdivided into three types: blowing, painting, and pinching.

Chen Tangren is a painter of sugar figures.

Chen Shuiwen wanted to refuse, after all, the quantity is limited.

In order to open up the market, the price is not too expensive. Of course, compared with the cost, this is already several times the profit!

So, it cannot be wasted, even if Chen Tangren is a member of the clan.

But, think about it.

According to his experience as a foot merchant.

In the town, those who can buy sugar men to eat are actually people with spare money. Maybe they are poor in the town, but in the countryside, they are actually rich.

Why not make money from these people?

Thinking of Chen Nuo's instructions to him before leaving, and the power given to him, Chen Shuiwen gritted his teeth.

"Okay, I'll give you 20 sticks, but the price is impossible to be discounted. I hope you can sell them."

Chen Tangren smiled and said, "Don't worry, if one person can't bear it, three or four people can share it. I've seen that this amount, if it is divided well, is actually enough for more than four people."

Chen Shuiwen looked at Chen Tangren in surprise.

His brain is still quite active, no wonder he can come to the town to sell things.

Well, I may use him more in the family business in the future.

After all, the nephew of the clan leader said that he was in charge of the family business.

I didn't think it was a big deal the past two days, but it's different now. If the clan leader's plan can really work, then this position will be incredible!

Chen Shuiwen's face turned red as he thought of the beautiful scene in the future.

For men, fame and fortune are aphrodisiacs, but the best and strongest aphrodisiac has always been power!

Chen Shuiwen is a layman, and naturally no exception.

Do it, do it hard, and you must get the approval of the clan leader's nephew!

At this moment, his eyes seemed to be burning with flames.

Chen Shuiwen's sales and boasting became more and more hardworking.

In order to sell well, he even directly demonstrated his own experience and started washing his hair.

In just two days.

This business has spread its reputation in the town.

...

Chenjiazhuang.

Chen Nuo is studying medical skills.

There are points, but if you have the ability, it is better to do it yourself and try to save some points.

However, he had read through the medical books left by his father, and had memorized everything in them, and was familiar with the properties and pharmacology of medicines.

These books were no longer useful.

So now Chen Nuo could only explore on his own.

"It's so slow. It would be great if there were some advanced medical books."

Chen Nuo studied medicine while exercising.

He also handled family affairs.

"Chen Li, give each household three liters of grain as a welfare given by the clan before winter. Also, accompany me to visit the homes of the lonely elderly in the village and the homes of the clan members who died last time."

Chen Nuo said while looking at the account book.

"Okay, I got it, clan leader."

"Clan leader, do you want to bring something?"

"Yes, you reminded me right, bring some eggs."

Soon.

Chen Nuo began to visit the homes of the lonely elderly in the village.

Delivering food and eggs, as well as care.

"Uncle, don't worry, the clan will not give up on you, you are my Chen clan."

By the way, some trivial matters have to be dealt with.

Including but not limited to quarrels between husband and wife, quarrels between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, disputes between neighbors...

Finally, Chen Nuo came to the homes of several clan members who died last time.

"Hey, Auntie, did you receive the things the clan gave you?"

"I received it, my uncle gave it to me personally, my son's death was not in vain..."

"Hey, Auntie, the clan will give you something more or less every year in the future, don't refuse, this is what your family deserves."

"..."

After walking all the way and fulfilling some obligations as the clan leader, Chen Nuo was very satisfied.

Because he discovered one thing, in his Chenjiazhuang, there was no situation of eating up the whole family!

That's right.

He went to see the dead clan members' families specifically to see if there was such a situation.

Eating up the whole family.

As the name suggests, if there are no male members in a family and only women are left, then the relatives and villagers in the village will come to the door and divide up the family's fields and other properties.

Why?

Because if you don't have a male heir, it means your family has no descendants. Without a man to back you up, who else can they bully?

Moreover, from the perspective of the clan, if your family is extinct, the land allocated to you by the clan will naturally be taken back and belong to other people with the same surname.

As for the women in this family, they have no right of inheritance. First, because they are from a different family!

Second, what if you marry someone else or someone from another clan with the clan's property? Wouldn't the clan's property and everyone's property suffer losses?

Therefore, women cannot inherit the property of their men or fathers. (Not absolutely)

This is a bad habit in the countryside.

Of course, in this era, it cannot be simply called a bad habit, but a characteristic of the times.

Because in addition to social factors, there are also factors of productivity. Everyone wants to make life easier. With a reason, the darkness in their hearts has a legal and compliant outlet.

It can get benefits and is "reasonable", so why not do it?

It seems reasonable.

But Chen Nuo doesn't think so.

What do women who have lost their men and sons think of this behavior of eating up the whole family?

What do men who have sacrificed their lives for the clan think?

When the clan members need to work for the clan in the future, will they really not think more about their own family? Will they be more concerned?

Therefore, this bad habit must be modified!

Fortunately, perhaps because of my great-uncle, this kind of thing has not happened in Chenjiazhuang for the time being.

Chen Nuo felt a little relieved.

Time just passed in all kinds of busyness.

…

Three days later.

Village entrance.

Chen Shuiwen and two young men drove the dusty mule cart, facing the sunset, approaching the village entrance.
