Su Ruanruan just wanted to see what sixty taels of silver looked like, so she looked at Su Dahe eagerly, "Grandpa, where is the silver? Can you show it to me?"
See Su Ruan
Su Dahe couldn't help but laugh at this soft look, "Okay, grandpa will take it out and show it to you."
With that said, Su Dashan unpacked the bag on the table.
When the bag was opened, there was still a ball of cloth inside, so Su Dahe continued to open it.
This time, Su Ruanruan finally saw the silver.
Different from the large piece of silver that Su Ruanruan imagined, this was a pile of broken silver. The largest piece was only the size of an adult's thumb.
Su Ruanruan blinked and then asked, "Why are they all broken pieces of silver?"
Wouldn't a whole large silver ingot be better? Better to handle and better to store.
There are big and small ones, and it would be bad if you lose more than one.
Hearing Su Ruanruan's childlike words, Su Dahe found it funny, "Although big silver ingots are easy to get, they are inconvenient to spend in the future. If we cut them ourselves, there will be losses. It is better to have these small silver ingots." If it weren’t for the fact that they were all replaced with copper plates, which would be too eye-catching to take back, I would rather have all the copper plates!”
One tael of silver is one thousand copper plates, sixty taels of silver, how many copper plates is that!
Su Ruanruan imagined it for a moment and actually made herself laugh.
There was a scale at home, so they found it and weighed the money. The Su family and the Xiao family each got half.
Xiao Chengjin watched Xiao Yougen and Xiao Wang carefully wrap up the money, pursed his lips, and saved what he wanted to say for later.
Seeing that it was already time for lunch, Xiao Yougen took his family home, and Su Ruanruan had to watch Xiao Chengjin leave.
After everyone from the Xiao family left, Su Dahe went to see Su Ruanruan, "Ruanbao, it stands to reason that this money is only because of you. How do you want to spend it?"
"Grandpa can spend whatever he wants. I have room and board at home, and of course the money I earn also belongs to the family. Besides, if grandpa and dad hadn't gone to sell the ginseng, what could I have done with the ginseng? If I had gone there by myself Sell it, if people see me as a little girl, they might just take the ginseng away and not give me a penny."
Su Dahe didn't expect that just one sentence he said would trigger Su Ruanruan to say such a long list of words.
But at the same time, Su Dahe felt very happy.
"Okay, grandpa, I'll keep this money for now, and when I get back, I'll ask your mother to pull some pieces of cloth for you to make new clothes for you."
Su Ruanruan's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Are you going to the county town? Then can you take me with you?"
"Okay! I'll take you with me!" Su Dahe agreed immediately.
It’s just a trip to the county town, it’s not a big deal, so of course I wouldn’t agree.
It’s just that I can’t go for the time being.
The wheat in the field needs top dressing, weeding, and watering. There are so many things waiting to be done!
If we really want to go to the county seat, we have to wait until this round of work is over.
Su Ruanruan also understood that the wheat in the field was related to whether their family could eat white flour this year, so she was not in a hurry to go to the county seat.
Xiao family.
After lunch, before Xiao Chengjin could say anything, Xiao Yougen spoke first, "Jinbao, do you want to go to school to study?"
Xiao Chengjin was surprised, but nodded.
If you want to get ahead, the only way here is to study.
He is the only boy in the Xiao family, so of course he has to do this.
