After the house was confiscated, I relied on billions of dollars in supplies to become a group favor

Chapter 272 Rules
Ruan He took a special inventory and could see that Mu Zhengyuan was indeed a powerful person. Regardless of other things, he must be quite capable if he could make the shrewd shopkeeper Qiu put aside his own interests.

Mu Zhengyuan is indeed very suitable for business. If there is such a job in the future, it will definitely be more suitable for him to handle it than for Ruan He to handle it himself.

According to the rules they had set before, most of the silver earned would be confiscated to support the family, and those who worked hard to earn the money could get a tenth of the commission.

Before that, Ruan He took good care of the chickens, ducks and geese at home, so she took a portion of the money and was responsible for selling this batch of chickens, ducks and geese in the city. Danqi also asked shopkeeper Qiu to raise the price, so he deserved to get the tenth of the silver.

Mu Zhengyuan didn't know the rules in their family. He held the small ingot of silver in his hand and was a little at a loss as he tried to push it away: "Xiaohe, third uncle doesn't want the silver, you saved my life." , the house provides me with food, drink, and a place to sleep, so how can I dare to take the money? You can take it back."

Seeing Mu Zhengyuan's rather awkward and reserved look, Mrs. Mu smiled kindly, patted his hand, and said comfortingly: "Zhengyuan, just accept this money, you deserve it." Yes, it is also a rule in our family. If you work for the family, you should get some benefits. Just accept the rules set by Xiaohe, so that everyone can work harder and do things for the family in the future. If you open If you set a precedent, the people behind you will be embarrassed to accept it. Besides, if other people can get a share of the money for their work, but you can't, doesn't that mean you're not treated as a member of the family?"

After Mrs. Mu Tai's sincere words, which were both soft and hard, Mu Zhengyuan had no choice but to smile helplessly and silently put away the ingot of silver.

"It's not just Zhengyuan. If everyone works hard in the future, everyone will have the opportunity to get money and buy anything they like in the county."

Mrs. Mutai's majestic gaze swept over everyone in the family, including Zhang's mother and daughter. She cleared her throat and spoke steadily with encouragement.

She naturally hoped that the rules set by Ruan He would allow everyone in the family to work hard and help the Mu family have a future with no worries about food and clothing.

After Mu Zhengyuan put away the money, he turned to look at Ruan He again, with a hint of hesitation.

He turned his head frequently and hesitated to speak. Even Mu Yunchao, who was watching on the sidelines, could see what he was thinking. He chuckled and said jokingly: "Third uncle, if you have anything to say, just say it. We are a family after all, and if you don’t say this, I’ll probably have to hold it in until you sleep tonight.”

"You kid, you don't know etiquette, how dare you make fun of your third uncle?" Mrs. Mutai glanced at her grandson angrily, and scolded her with a light smile.

Mu Zhengyuan sighed, smiled helplessly and embarrassedly, and said, "Madam, Xiaohe, I really have something I want to discuss with you."

"Third uncle, just say it." Ruan He said with a curved smile.

"I walked around the city today and found out that the items sold in the grocery store at the entrance of our village are too expensive. However, there is only such a grocery store in the entire exile village. Everyone wants to buy something and there is no other place to go, and it is impossible. I made a special trip to the county town. My plan was to return to my old profession and open a cheap grocery store in the exile village. The things I bought were cheaper than that grocery store. I thought I could make some good ones. business." Seeing that everyone was listening to his story attentively, Mu Zhengyuan coughed lightly, sighed unnaturally, and said: "I don't have money to open a shop, and I was wondering if I could start a business from the public house. Use some of the money to open a store, and if you make money, you can pay it back in multiples."

This is a good idea, but for Mu Zhengyuan, the only constraint is that he is now very short of money. He has just come to live with them and has not done any work yet, so he has to borrow money to open a shop for nothing, which makes him feel embarrassed. It's hard to say.

After Mu Zhengyuan said that, there was silence for a moment. Mrs. Mu sighed, but did not refuse it explicitly. She just said hesitantly: "Zhengyuan, your idea is a good one, but the owner of the grocery store, Boss Tong, is not a good person." It's easy to mess with people. I heard that the grocery store has been open for many years and is still open now. The price is so high and there are no other similar grocery stores. I guess there must be some tricks. That Tong Guixiang is a local. We are foreign exiled prisoners who just arrived this year, how can we compare?"

Mrs. Mutai's thinking is not unreasonable. Tong Guixiang's grocery store has been selling high prices all year round, but it still stands and has been running steadily for so many years. Over the years, someone must have thought about something similar to Mu Zhengyuan. idea, but now it seems that there are no grocery stores that can compete with Tong Guixiang, which shows that this is not a business that can be run for a long time.

Different from Mrs. Mutai's hesitation, Ruan He chuckled lightly, smiled heartily, and said: "Grandma, you don't have to worry too much. This grocery store hasn't opened yet, how can you say something depressing? If it can't open, If you sell those goods in the county town, you won't lose much, so why not let Third Uncle give it a try, he must have the ability to make such a wealthy fortune in the past."

Since it was Ruan He who spoke, Mrs. Mutai naturally supported her idea and no longer hesitated. She nodded and agreed: "Now Xiaohe is in charge of all the big and small things at home. Since Xiaohe thinks everything is safe, Grandma, I can’t say anything else. Then Zhengyuan must start this business well and make our Mu’s grocery store prosperous!”

Mu Zhengyuan responded cheerfully and said solemnly: "Okay, I will definitely live up to the expectations of Mrs. Tai and everyone!"

As he spoke, Mu Zhengyuan's clenched fists trembled slightly, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but become moist, sparkling with tears for their trust.

He had had this idea before, but he just mentioned it a little, and received a merciless look from Aunt Cui. The second wife and his wife were able to squander the money, but he couldn't get a penny.

Mu Zhengyuan couldn't understand the reason before, but now that he understands it, he only feels sour in his heart.

Ruan He immediately took Mu Zhengyuan to the back room to get the money, counted the appropriate amounts and handed them to him, asking him to go directly to the village to find a suitable place to rent a shop.

Mu Zhengyuan held the warm silver in his hand and couldn't wait for a moment. He greeted happily: "I will go to the village now to ask who has suitable vacant land for me to open a grocery store..."
