Ugly Peasant Wife: Money Grubber

Thus, Yang Xinyu asked a bunch of common sense questions.

It was only then that he realized that one tael of silver was worth a thousand taels of copper. Similarly, one tael of gold was worth a thousand taels of silver!

Looking at it this way, one tael of silver was quite a lot!

"Fifth Sister-in-law, since you understand, when are we going to sell the rabbit skin?"

The rabbit skin is left at home, can't you worry all day about being robbed by the people in the old house?

Hee Zijun also did not want to stay at home all day to watch the show, and also wanted to go out with Yang Xinyu to gather more game.

Maybe if he was lucky, he would be able to pick up a hare!

Yang Xinyu thought that it would be better to choose from another day than a different day, so she said, "Let's do it tomorrow!"

On the second day, as soon as the skin of the fish belly appeared in the sky, Yang Xinyu was woken up by Hee Zijun's call.

Hee Zijun took the rabbit meat soup that he had not finished yesterday and cooked a hot dish. The two ate their fill and then left for the county.

Yang Xinyu also didn't know the way, and only followed Hee Zijun. Because the road was really far, the two walked for half a day, and only arrived at the market at noon.

At the market there was a grocery store that collected animal fur and sold it at a high price to rich people to make coats.

Hee Zijun brought Yang Xinyu to the general store, took out the grey rabbit fur and placed it on the counter. "Boss, take a look at this rabbit skin."

The shop owner recognised Hee Zijun, and looked at him with a shocked gaze, then asked, "Why did you come alone? Did Ol 'Five not come with you?"

Hee Zijun's eyes immediately reddened, and he stuttered. "I … Fifth Bro … He … "He didn't come back …"

In the past, he had heard that Hee Ziyuan was sent to war, and now that the war was over and the Northern Empire had won, Hee Ziyuan had yet to return home, so he must have died on the battlefield.

The boss seemed to understand most of what was going on, and he couldn't help but sigh. "Child, it's all because of your hardships, and you still have to take care of your foolish sister-in-law."

Yang Xinyu originally wanted to stay at the side without uttering a word, but then she unhappily said, "I'm not stupid, I'll take care of my Younger Brother in the future!"

When the boss heard that Yang Xinyu had called his brother-in-law Younger Brother, he just treated her as if she was an idiot, and said, "That's right, that's right! Fifth Bro and I can be considered as friends. It's not easy for you to bring along a fool. How about this, I'll sell this rabbit skin to you for one or two hundred gold coins. "

Yang Xinyu was overjoyed. Originally, she wanted to prove that she was not stupid, but she did not expect to gain fortune from this disaster.

This time, she played dumb to the end, happily followed Hee Zijun to take out the money and went out.

Before he walked far, Hee Zijun pulled Yang Xinyu to an alley to the side and stuffed the silver tael into Yang Xinyu's hands, "Fifth Sister-in-law, you picked up this wild rabbit and gave it to you."

The silver was drenched in the sweat of Hee Zijun's hands. Holding it in his hands, Yang Xinyu only felt an incomparable sense of warmth. "Just leave this money here for me. When we need it in the future, we can use it again."

Hee Zijun nodded, and replied his in a low voice.

He felt that this silver would be the safest at the Fifth Sister-in-law's place. The people of the Old Hall did not expect that the Fifth Sister-in-law would have this silver, and therefore, did not think that they could snatch it away from him.

As for the rest, it was enough to buy some coarse rice for the writers.

As for Yang Xinyu, she was naturally thinking of how to spend a tael of silver.

If it was used for business, it would be the best starting fund.

But at the moment, she still hadn't decided what kind of business she would be able to do.

A tael of silver was more than a tael of silver, but it was also less than a tael of silver. Once an investment was made and there was no harvest, all the money would go to waste.

Next time, she might not be so lucky as to pick up a rabbit for nothing.

Thinking about this, she immediately suggested, "Younger Brother, before we go to buy food, let's go buy a bow and arrow!"

The shop owner was surprised to see the two of them back at the bow shop. "Why did you guys come back?" he asked.

Hee Zijun saw that Yang Xinyu did not make a sound, and pretended to be a fool to the end, and said: "I want to buy a bunch of hunters."

Remembering that the sabre at home was dull and that killing the rabbit had taken a lot of effort, he added, "And a dagger."

The boss thought that Hee Zijun wanted to learn how to hunt and earn money, so he took out a few arrows and daggers that were slightly cheaper than the others and said, "Previously, Ol 'Five bought them from me as well. Take a look at these."

The archers were all similar in style, and the number of types of daggers were much greater.

Yang Xinyu immediately found a dagger with peony pattern on it, and happily placed it on her palm, looking left and right.

The owner smiled and said, "You are a smart fool, sister-in-law. This dagger's fastest style is also the most original. It was created by Liu Yiyi from Beijing, but the price is a little too high."

Hee Zijun then asked, "How much is this silver?"

The shop owner raised three fingers and said, "It was originally at this price. For the sake of Ol 'Five, I sold it to you for a cheaper price. One tael of silver."

He paused for a moment and continued, "As for this bow and arrow, I won't charge you extra silver coins, so I'll give you the cheapest one!"

The owner was a straightforward person, he did not even ask for a high price, yet one silver tael was spent in just one breath. Hee Zijun felt his heart ache.
