Chapter 183 I've never seen so much money

"You don't know, that scene was horrible, but it also saved us from digging a hole."

"This time, I found two hundred and thirty-six taels of silver." The person who spoke looked excited.

But when he thought about his fellow travelers who were lucky enough to find more than 300 taels, and heard on the way back that someone had found more than 600 taels, he couldn't help but envy and said, "Next time, I'll find it faster too."

Yang Xianglian was also happily sharing with her family at this time: "Mom and Dad, I'm fine. There were so many people together, and the rebels were scared away."

"With the Baijiabao caravan in charge, everyone is behaving well and no one is bullying anyone. By the way, do you know how much money I found this time?"

"There are three hundred and sixty-seven taels." In addition to the silver, there were also a few pieces of gold and some copper coins.

I heard from Shopkeeper Bai that the rebels robbed many people for military funds along the way, so they carried these things with them to a greater or lesser extent.

Some people may not be able to earn so much money in their entire life, but this is what they achieved in one night.

Yang Xianglian laid out the silver and money she had found yesterday, and her brother-in-law and sister-in-law, who had gone down the mountain with her, also took out what was in their pockets.

"Sister-in-law, I'm useless. I'm slow at touching, so I only get about eighty taels." He was small, so naturally he couldn't compete with the adults in finding the good places to touch.

The sister-in-law was also embarrassed and said: "Sister-in-law, I am a little scared when it gets dark, so I only found fifty-seven taels."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xianglian quickly said, "You are already very impressive. Really, very impressive."

Such a scene would scare even an adult like her, let alone two children who were only in their early teens.

However, because it was dark, the light from the torches was limited, which concealed a lot of the bloody scenes. In addition, the battlefield had been cleaned once before, so everyone was able to remain calm.

After the family counted the money, Yang Xianglian said excitedly: "This money is enough for our family to build a big house, send my brother-in-law to school, and prepare a dowry for my sister-in-law."

When Zhuang Xiaohua and Zhuang Xiaoyang heard this, they looked at each other with anticipation and said quickly, "Sister-in-law, we will go with you next time."

Yang Xianglian smiled and said, "Okay, with your two helpers, our family will be better and better."

"Thanks to you." As he said this, Old Man Zhuang subconsciously touched his side.

But he had no idea where his pipe had been lost when he ran away, so he could only rub it against the corner of his clothes awkwardly.

Seeing this, Yang Xianglian hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, I'll buy you a pipe when we get to the safe county town."

Old Man Zhuang grinned happily when he heard this, but still waved his hand: "No, no, I heard from the caravan that smoking this all the time is bad for your health. Besides, you have to spend money to buy this tobacco, so forget it."

"With this money, it's better to let the children eat more meat."

Mrs. Zhuang also nodded and said, "That's right. Now our family depends on you, Xianglian, to take care of everything. We should save as much as possible."

Even though it seems easy to make money now, such situations are rare after all. Be frugal so that your family will not starve to death if you lose income in the future.

When Yang Xianglian saw that a corner of her mother-in-law's clothes was missing, she immediately looked around and quickly found a new patch on her own child, using the missing corner of her mother-in-law's clothes.

"Mom, thank you for your hard work."

"Oh, what are you talking about? If anyone has to talk about hard work, it's you." Mrs. Zhuang waved her hand.

She and the old man looked after the three children on the mountain, while it was her daughter-in-law who followed others down the mountain to find a job.

"Father, mother, this is what I was thinking. The Baijiabao caravan has cotton cloth and cotton, so I want to buy some from them." Yang Xianglian: "We don't have any decent clothes in this big family. It's so cold in winter. If we get sick from the cold, it will be a big trouble."

"Besides."

She lowered her voice and continued, "We will be on the road again. Instead of being scared carrying so much cash on us, we might as well exchange some things, eat enough and wear warm clothes so that we don't have to worry about losing the money."

When Old Man Zhuang heard this, he nodded and said, "That's right."

Mrs. Zhuang also agreed. After all, her family consisted of orphans, widows, the elderly, the young and the weak. If it weren't for the Baijiabao caravan, they would have been robbed to pieces long ago.

Yang Xianglian gave her parents-in-law twenty taels of silver each, saying that all eggs should not be put in one basket.

He also gave his brother-in-law and sister-in-law two taels of silver each, then put the rest away and took his sister-in-law to the caravan to buy things.

Seeing another child licking a piece of maltose on the road, Yang Xianglian couldn't help but look at her sister-in-law beside her.

"Xiaohua, do you want some candy?"

Zhuang Xiaohua subconsciously slurped her saliva, then shook her head: "No, sister-in-law, I don't want to eat it."

Yang Xianglian looked at it and felt distressed: "It's okay, eat it, my sister-in-law will buy it for you later, and your brother will too."

Her sister-in-law and brother-in-law were only eleven years old. They worked with her all night without any complaints. How could she not feel distressed?

"Forget it, sister-in-law, we are all adults..." Zhuang Xiaohua refused sensibly: "Candy is something only children eat."

But when she lowered her head, she couldn't help but glance at the child who was licking the candy happily. He looked so sweet.

"What do you mean adults? How old are you?" Yang Xianglian said, "Besides, adults can eat it too. I'll buy some more for my parents to try."

To put it bluntly, eat a little while you can. If you encounter any problems later, you will not die with regrets for not buying this bite of maltose at this time.

Zhuang Xiaohua was still young after all, and after hearing this, she could no longer hold back her joy and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law. Sister-in-law, I'll just have a small piece, and give more to Hu Zi, Daniu, and Xue Hua."

Yang Xianglian smiled and said, "You are all children, all of you should eat, all of you should eat."

There were many people who wanted to buy things like Yang Xianglian. Bai Duojin reported to Bai Tao and after getting permission, he sold some cotton cloth and cotton to these people and sold dozens of pairs of cotton shoes.

A lot of other food, such as salt and sugar, were also sold.

Especially canned oranges. Even though Taohua Village sold them for 500 coins per can, there were still some people coming to buy them, and more than 100 cans were sold.

Zhou Yang's family bought several cans, while Yang Xianglian bought three cans.

She and her three children shared one can, her sister-in-law and brother-in-law shared one can, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law ate one can.

While Bai Duojin was recording the sales of various goods in a notebook, he thought to himself that it seemed that these people had made a lot of money from these two battles and were willing to spend it.

Although Lu Xiaohao and Yang Song went down to check out the situation, they also found some silver and money. Yang Song, in particular, gained more than 800 taels of silver by gaining experience.

After he came back, he calculated that even if the Baijiabao caravan left, he could still escape with his master in dignity.

But for now, we must stay with the caravan. Firstly, it is safer. Secondly, someone will provide three meals a day, which saves a lot of money.

Thank you for your support. I would like to ask for more votes~~~
