Chapter 436 Secrecy

Bai Erlang was stunned and Man Bao didn't mention it. He really hadn't thought about this issue.

Bai Erlang had a new worry and immediately forgot about the depression of not being able to go to Yizhou.

He thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a good solution. He could only ask his two friends worriedly, "What do you think we should do?"

Bai Shanbao said: "You just won't give it to me, how can your mother still rob it?"

Anyway, as long as he persists, there is nothing his mother can do to him.

Seeing that Bai Erlang's face was extremely worried, Bai Shanbao thought about it seriously and said, "Go find your father and ask him to help you."

Man Bao also nodded, and then said in a low voice: "We can't go to your grandmother."

Bai Shanbao nodded with deep understanding.

"If my mother and grandmother don't agree, my father will not help me." Bai Erlang expressed doubts about their ideas.

"Listen to me, you are right. If you go to your cousin, you may still have a 50% chance. If you go to your great-aunt, you will lose 10% of the hope." Bai Shanbao thought for a while and then added: "If my cousin doesn't

Agree, just say that Man Bao and I keep the money ourselves, and we will have to pay for the big money that will be used in Zhuangzi from now on."

"Hey, didn't we agree that it would be paid by your family?"

Man Bao: "You are so stupid. This is just an excuse. As long as your father believes it."

Bai Erlang reluctantly nodded, "Well, then I'll ask someone to help me carry the silver back? Otherwise, I'd better take half back first, and then I'll take the other half after my father agrees."

Bai Erlang looked at Bai Shanbao and said, "Can you help me keep the other half of the money first?"

Bai Shanbao said there was no problem.

Man Bao also packed her money home, but the silver was too heavy. She only put twenty pieces in the basket for the first time, then carried it and walked home.

Everyone in Lao Zhou's family was busy with their own affairs. Man Bao was carrying a basket on his back and went home. No one paid attention to it for a while. It wasn't until Man Bao was carrying the basket on his back again and carrying another in his hand that Xiao Qian asked: "Man Bao"

, what are you doing here?"

"I'm going to Shanbao's house to get something."

"Then you have to come back soon, I have already started cooking," Xiao Qian said with a smile, "Dad asked me to kill the chicken today and also bought some meat."

Man Bao agreed and ran away as soon as he went out.

When she arrived at Bai's house, she returned Bai Shanbao's basket and used her own to pack silver ingots. She put twenty pieces in it, looked at the remaining nine, and hesitantly stuffed another one in.

Bai Shanbao asked, "Can you finish memorizing it? Can't you run one more time?"

"It's time for dinner at my house."

"Then let me take it with you." Bai Shanbao also took his own basket to help, and Manbao gave his own basket to him, "This one is heavier, you carry this one, I'll carry yours."

Bai Shanbao thought that he was older than her and a boy, so he did not refuse.

Manbao happily put the remaining eight silver ingots into the basket on his back. After thinking about it, he took out five more from him. He felt that they were neither light nor heavy, so he carried them and looked at him.

When people from Lao Zhou's family saw two children carrying baskets on their backs to Man Bao's room, they couldn't help but wonder, "What are they carrying?"

Most of the guys who played the best with Man Bao immediately followed him to take a look. Wu Lang was originally squatting under the eaves waiting for dinner, so they also followed him when they saw this.

Zhou Zuorang followed him early and reached out to carry Manbao, "What's in the backpack?"

Everyone rushed into Man Bao's room while talking. Man Bao opened the cloth covering the bamboo basket, and the voice of "Dang Dang Dang" said: "Look!"

Zhou Lang's eyes widened, as did the others, who couldn't help but say "Wow" together. When Wu Lang came up to take a look, he was stunned and asked stammering: "This, this, this, Yaomei, Manbao,

What did you do and how did you get so much money back?"

Man Bao was unhappy and said, "I earned all this."

"Ah? How did you earn it?"

In Lao Zhou's family, only the Qian family knew that Man Bao and Bai Shanbao had exchanged wheat with the villagers and sold it to Master Bai. Others, including Lao Zhoutou, thought that Man Bao was only between their family and Master Bai.

He just created a line and sold his own wheat seeds to Mr. Bai at a high price.

Man Bao also reacted belatedly. It seemed that he hadn't told his father about this yet.

Man Bao immediately covered the money and said to a group of friends with a serious face: "This is our secret, you can't tell the adults!"

Not to mention Friday Lang and Saturday Lang, even the big ones and the younger ones were extremely worried, "Sister-in-law, you have too much money, you have to tell the adults."

"No!" Man Bao took out his trump card, "I still have your private money in my hands. I never told your parents when they asked me."

"But……"

Wu Lang asked: "Manbao, how did you earn this money? Do your parents know?"

Man Bao pointed at his fingers and said guiltily: "Only mother knows, father doesn't know."

Wu Lang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "Mom, really know?"

Man Bao nodded, "Of course!"

Wu Lang then remembered that his mother was unwilling to exchange for wheat yesterday, and had a quarrel with his father about this. It seemed that his mother had known about it for a long time.

Wu Lang nodded readily, "Okay, we won't say anything."

The others were not fools. They understood it as soon as they heard it, and they all covered their mouths and laughed.

Only Erya was more worried, "Sister-in-law, is it safe for you to keep so much money in the house?"

"Do thieves still dare to sneak into our home?" Man Bao said, "I have six brothers!"

Erya: "...No, grandpa will go through the rooms of the fifth and sixth uncles..."

Wu Lang waved his hand and said very reassuringly: "Dad will not come to check Yaomei's room. Do you think the private money we left here with her has been checked?"

This is true, from Wu Lang to the youngest Si Tou who can run and jump, all their private money is in the hands of Man Bao. This matter is an open secret in the old Zhou family, but no one has come to check.

Man Bao's room.

Lao Zhoutou would ask Man Bao from time to time, but he never checked her room.

Erya thought about it and nodded. That's right. There was a clear division of labor in the family. Grandma was in charge of her eldest aunt and sister-in-law, while her father and uncles were in charge of their grandfather.

For some reason, Erya suddenly sympathized with her father and uncles.

Friends who had another common secret gathered together to count Manbao's silver ingots. They were very envious. They were curious about how Manbao made money.

Man Bao said: "We also sold the wheat seeds to Mr. Bai."

Wu Lang couldn't help but gasped, "Wheat seeds are so profitable, can we still sell them after we harvest the spring wheat this season?"

Man Bao thought for a while and said: "Looking back at the situation, if our wheat harvest is good, it should be okay."

Da Tou then said thoughtfully, "So what my father said is true. You can really make money by farming well."
