Chapter 204
"Congratulations, congratulations!" Xiaomi slapped the two of them, generously rewarding them, "Red envelopes at thirty nights!"

"Yeah, thank you girl."

Qing Hua Qing Yu was even more delighted to hear that she was rewarded, and quickly cleared the table, spread out the bedding, and waited for Xiaomi to sleep before leaving.

Xiaomi remembered something and hurriedly ordered, "Invite Mr. Feng and the elders after breakfast tomorrow."

"Yes, girl."

In fact, where did you use Xiaomi to order, the account books were sent back from the city during the day, and the whole village, men, women and children were looking forward to it.

The Lu family is not stingy. Previously, whether the old and young men in the family stayed at home to work or went out to work, the Lu family had already explained that in addition to wages, [-]% of all business bonuses at the end of the year would be given to everyone as a reward. , and another [-]% is used to support children's education and build ancestral halls.

The lights in Xiaomi's room were still on, and the entire Old Xiongling couldn't sleep well.

Even when Xiaomi's room was out of light, the kang heads of each family were still whispering, "Father, tell me, how much money can our family share?"

"How much is fine. Originally, I had already received wages for the work, and the warm house at home was earning money day by day. Now that Xiaomi distributes dividends, it is purely based on the affection of living in our village. It should not be divided1"

The man is sensible, and the gratitude in his eyes can be seen even in the dark, "Thinking about this time the year before last, let alone buying new year's goods at home, it would be nice to have a full meal. At this time last year, it would be nice to be able to eat enough." It’s too bad, but it’s not easy. Look at this year, the foundation of the family is several hundred taels, enough for our son to marry ten daughter-in-laws!”

"Isn't it?" Hearing these words, the mother-in-law was also emotional, "I never thought that I would still be able to wear a silver bracelet in my life. I am so happy now that I feel like I will wake up with a smile when I sleep."

"Then don't think too much about it, go to bed, I'm afraid Xiaomi will call everyone to talk tomorrow morning."

"Okay, go to bed. Xiaomi praised the tofu I made earlier, so I'll grind another board and send it over tomorrow. Although we have no skills, we are not ungrateful."

"Okay, I also go for a walk on weekdays, and help the Lu family more when there is something to do. Xiaomi is a rich man, so it's not easy to do those rough jobs."

"Don't worry, I have the numbers."

Such a simple and sincere dialogue can be talked about in every household.

In this world, in many cases, sincerity may be exchanged for making progress, but Xiaomi is undoubtedly lucky.Lao Xiong Ling, a group of rough and rich hunters who have struggled for many years on the food and clothing line, almost devoted all their energy to repaying her kindness and generosity.

In the early morning at the end of winter, when the sky was just turning white, the roosters of each family stood on the wall, crowing non-stop like a competition.The old dog who worked hard all night can finally close his eyes and squint for a while.The owner who has a good life will not ignore its loyalty, and will definitely send a bowl of corn porridge mixed with leftovers to the nest after breakfast.

Sure enough, as expected.Not long after breakfast, Qinghua Qingyu and Gao Ren from the first year of junior high school were sent out to invite people.

Soon, the main room of the Lu family was full of people, and a dozen people surrounded the door.

Xiaomi racked his brains for blue flowers and green jade, and almost moved out all the chairs, but there was still not enough room for everyone.After all, the main room has limited space, and it is difficult to accommodate dozens of people.

Old Master Feng knocked on the cigarette pot, waved his hand at Xiaomi, and finally scolded those villagers with a smile, "Okay, Xiaomi, don't be busy, these bastards are afraid that you will pay less money, so they came here specially to supervise!"

The old man is over 60 years old this year, which may be common in modern times, but it is extremely rare here in Dayuan.Nowadays, no one in the village feels underestimated when they call the men in their thirties as bastards. Instead, they grinned and shouted, "Old Master Feng has wronged us. We are not afraid that Xiaomi will pay less money. It is just that the homework is done. Come join in the fun."

"That's right, I've been busy for a year, and this is the happiest time, why don't you come and listen?"

"You greedy ghosts, don't worry, your money is indispensable!"

Old Master Feng was also happy in his heart, he squinted his eyes and stuffed shredded tobacco into the cigarette pot, while Father Lu beside him helped light the fire, and then called Xiaomi, "Xiaomi, if you have something to say, hurry up, everyone still has work at home. "

Xiaomi sighed helplessly, where the villagers were busy, maybe his father was anxious to go back to the house to read a book.

But she can't expose the old man, and she can't persuade her, so she can only think about ways to make more soup recently, so as to supplement the old man.

Thinking in this way, she spread out the account book and reported the entry and exit accounts of the workshops and restaurants, and the villagers were in a daze, just waiting for the final result.

Xiaomi didn't make them wait too impatiently. After he finished reading, he paused, and said, "This year, the net profit of all businesses is more than 7000 taels, and a fraction will be given to the chefs in the restaurant who are not from our village. After going down, there is a whole number left, twenty-seven thousand taels."

"How much... how much?"

Old Master Feng dropped the cigarette pipe and pot directly on the ground. It usually looks like a lifeline, but now he doesn't even care about building it.

All the villagers also opened their mouths wide, and they could easily stuff an egg in there.

This year, the family has received wages every month, and in winter, the greenhouse has paid off several hundred taels.But when they suddenly heard that the money was calculated in ten thousand taels, they were still so shocked that they couldn't react for a while.

Xiaomi snickered, and then said again, "According to the previous agreement with everyone, 700% of it, which is 700 taels, will be distributed to Mr. Feng as a bonus for each family. There is another [-]%, which is also [-] taels." [-] taels are used as the cost of building ancestral halls, school houses, and repairing ancestral graves in the village."

"No, this is too much!"

Old Master Feng slapped the table with a slap, his old face flushed with excitement, "At first, everyone thought that 1000% of the bonus would be [-] taels of silver, and each family would share some, and then build a ancestral hall for the ancestors and build a ancestral hall for the children." The house for studying is just enough. Who would have thought that there are so many now! If the ancestors knew that they spent thousands of taels of silver to build the ancestral hall, they would have to dream and scold everyone. No, absolutely can’t ask for so much!”

"Yes, it's too much. Whether you work in the workshop or go out, everyone is paid, and you can just get some bonuses for a lottery. So much is too cheeky, ancestors and The children have all been arranged, we can't be too greedy."

"Yes, yes, you can't ask for so much."

It's not that hunters don't like silver, especially after experiencing starvation and cold. Compared with today's good life, everyone knows that silver is definitely a good thing.But there are always some things that are more valuable than silver.Such as conscience, such as friendship!

Xiaomi didn't expect that the villagers would refuse, after all, it was agreed in advance.She was a little at a loss for a while, and turned to look at her father and brothers, only to see that they were all inexplicably excited.

Give money and don't want it, this is unimaginable for modern people.But in Dayuan, in Laoxiongling, there was a truly heart-warming drama in which money is useful and love is priceless.

In the West Room, Chen Yuexian had guessed about the income of the business for a year. After all, she was responsible for the accounts of the workshop in the south, and she had vaguely heard about the income of the Jingdu Restaurant.

To be honest, she didn't sleep well last night.Born in a family of merchants, the word "gravity" is almost carved into his bones.Even though shopkeeper Chen is famous for his generosity and generosity, he still puts interests first.

Now, the Lu family wants to spend 5000 taels to distribute to the villagers for nothing, and to build ancestral halls and school houses. In her opinion, it is really unnecessary, or wasteful.

Even though the eighteen families of Old Xiongling got along like one family and experienced many hardships together before, the Lu family treated everyone well.The skill of growing vegetables is just taught, and the wages are the most generous, and the daily food has never been short of the villagers.If a large amount of silver is divided, there is a danger of "promoting Mi En and fighting Mi En".

But, as a new daughter-in-law, she couldn't say that at all.Tentatively, I mentioned a few words to Boss Lu, but Boss Lu didn't guess her intentions, and fell asleep after turning his head, and she could only put it in her heart silently.

But at this moment, she heard the loud voices of the villagers, yelling that they could not take so much money from the Lu family, and she suddenly understood something...

She subconsciously stretched out her hand to touch her belly, which had not yet bulged, and laughed in a low voice, "Son, you are lucky!"

In the main room outside, Old Master Feng waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then turned to look at Xiaomi, "You don't need to persuade me anymore, everyone won't ask for so much money. I will change the agreement in the future, and everyone will work with your family When doing business, you only need one dividend at the end of the year, and the dividend is calculated as 700 taels. If there is less, no one will say anything. If it is too much, it will be stuck at [-] taels, and no more.

This money is enough for everyone to share a big red envelope, plus offering sacrifices to the ancestors, and providing for the children to study.For the rest, no matter how much the Lu family earns, it is the Lu family's ability and has nothing to do with everyone.Besides, the third child is about to take a big exam, and the second child also needs to see his wife. Needless to say, Xiaomi, the more dowry, the better.

That's it, no one can change it.Otherwise, it is disobedience and disobedience to the elders. "

"No way, Old Master Feng, what we agreed at the beginning..."

Xiaomi wanted to persuade her a few words, but Old Master Feng ignored her at all, and directly took a pile from the two stacks of banknotes on the table, which was exactly 700 taels when he figured it out.It started to be distributed.

"These 1000 taels are used as red envelopes for everyone, how much each family has, and we will distribute them after we discuss with the old guys. The 1000 taels are used to build ancestral halls and school houses, and buy more good wood, bricks and tiles. The memorial tablets of those of us are all put in, and the house is not rotten at all. The remaining 700 taels are saved for emergency use. Whose son is promising, whoever has done great things for the whole Laoxiongling , or whose daughter-in-law is filial to her parents-in-law, she will use this silver as a reward.

What do you guys say? "

"Okay, listen to Old Master Feng."

"Yes, the elders have the final say. I used to know a woodworking craftsman in the deep mountains in the city. After the New Year, I will go and ask. If there is good wood, I will make a decision. I must build a good ancestral hall for the ancestors. Children build a good school!"
