Come to think of it, this must have been a crazy purchase.

There are many things in the market town.

He Lin was dazzled by the sight. The environment and ecology of the Chu Empire were not as bad as He Lin imagined.

Xi Zhihui clutched her money bag and thought about what she needed to buy:

"You must buy rice, flour, noodles, meat..."

He Lin nodded slightly: "Not bad."

"I still need to buy some pieces of cloth. Winter is coming. I want to make clothes for my husband..." Xi Zhihui said again.

He Lin continued to add: "Buy a few more pieces of cloth, and each of you will have new clothes."

Xi Zhihui rolled her eyes at He Lin with a smile on her face:

"Sir, a piece of cloth now costs half a dollar, and a piece of cloth can only be used to make two sets of clothes. If everyone in the family buys a new set of clothes, where will the money come from?"

He Lin shrugged slightly and said nonchalantly: "Have you forgotten our briquettes? That's a cornucopia."

Xi Zhihui was actually very worried, she shook her head slightly and said:

"That won't work. We must repair our home first. Otherwise, even if we have new clothes and no shelter, it will be difficult for us to live in the winter."

He Lin felt the autumn wind blowing and the leaves fluttering on the street.

He understood that winter was coming.

Nowadays, the house has only four walls and air leakage everywhere, which is really not suitable.

It is necessary to expand the yard or buy a mansion directly in the town.

While He Lin was thinking about it, Xi Zhihui had already finished shopping with the girls and was preparing to go home.

He Lin was not idle during this period. He found the blacksmith shop and wanted to ask the blacksmith shop to make a mold.

Unfortunately, the blacksmith shop refused no matter what, saying that iron was a restricted material and required a certificate from the government.

He Lin then thought that the Chu Empire was now in deep war.

The only things that the blacksmith shop can cast are either farm tools, weapons, or stirrups.

If He Lin uses iron privately, he may be punished in his eyes.

Then there is no other way, we can only push back and delay this matter.

On the way, Xi Zhihui looked at the large and small packages with a smile on her face.

She did not forget to report to He Lin:

"Mr. Nuo, this is the money bag. There is still more than seven ounces of money left."

There are too many people in the family, and it costs two thousand dollars just to buy the necessary daily necessities.

He Lin pushed the money bag to Xi Zhihui: "I told you that the money will be left to you for safekeeping."

Xi Zhihui was extremely moved and her eyes shone brightly:

"Ms. sir, do you really believe me so much?"

Xi Zhihui almost shed tears. She only had 90 yuan in her purse before.

He Lin gave it to Xi Zhihui, and Xi Zhihui didn't have such big mood swings yet.

But now it's seven guan of money, which is seven taels of silver.

You must know that ordinary farmers in the Dachu Empire only earn four to five taels of silver a year.

With so much money, He Lin was confident enough to let Xi Zhihui come to the customs declaration.

Xi Zhihui is not moved?

In the environment of the Dachu Empire, women did not have much say. As for the economic lifeline, everything was in the hands of men.

He Lin's move is undoubtedly to treat Xi Zhihui and other women as equals.

Not only Xi Zhihui was moved, but the other girls were also extremely moved.

Seeing the mist in the eyes of the girls, they almost shed tears.

He Lin held them in his arms, feeling the warmth coming from their skin, and said loudly:

"You are all my precious treasures, and I will need your support in the future management of the family."

"Managing money is just a small step. From now on, you will all participate in the construction of the family."

The women were moved and expressed their feelings one after another:

"Ms. sir, I will definitely live up to you in this life."

"My husband, if you say so, I am willing to be a cow or a horse for you."

"...."

Everyone staggered to their home.

On the village street, when the villagers saw He Lin returning home with a full load, there was disbelief in their eyes.

The news that He Lin had become rich also spread throughout the village.

When everyone returned home, the women who stayed at home came out to greet them.

When they saw the big and small bags in He Lin's hands, their eyes shone.

"Mr. sir, have you made any money today? Is your business still going well?"

"Ms. sir, give us the things and we'll pick them up."

He Lin nodded with satisfaction and laughed loudly:

"You don't see who I am, I said I would give you the best life."

That night, the life of the He Lin family went to a new level.

There are many dishes on the table, including more than three meat dishes.

Stewed pork with cabbage, duck soup, and three hares...

As for other vegetarian dishes, they are no longer worth mentioning in front of these meat dishes.

He Lin also let go of his stomach and started eating.

This was the most delicious meal He Lin had ever had in the Chu Empire.

As the saying goes, when you are full of wine and food, you can think about lust.

He Lin was lying on the bed, biting a toothpick made of bamboo skewers, thinking about how to spend the night.

A few days ago, He Lin's family was poor and could not afford to eat, so he had to make briquettes.

Even though there are many beauties in the family, He Lin doesn't have any other thoughts.

But it’s different now, we’re full of wine and food.

He Lin licked his lips. He felt that he was full of energy and could do it again.

Xi Zhihui on the other side also joined the sisters to stand together.

Xi Zhihui held a wooden plate in her hand, which contained ten wooden signs, each of which was exactly the same.

Xi Zhihui was rarely serious and said seriously:

"Sisters, harmony is the most important thing in a family. From now on, there are two conditions for us to accompany our husbands. Either the husband chooses by himself, or he chooses someone else."

"As women behind our husbands, we must not get into fights."

Xi Zhihui made it very clear, and all the girls agreed.

"Don't worry, sister, we know what's going on."

"Sister, go quickly, don't keep your husband waiting."

Xi Zhihui nodded slightly and entered the room.

Seeing Xi Zhihui approaching him with a plate, He Lin's eyes widened slightly.

Is this the legendary flop?

He Lin swallowed, feeling a little under control.

Is every man’s dream realized by himself?

Xi Zhihui smiled slightly and said: "My husband, please look over the cards. Let's see which good girl is lucky enough to sleep with my husband today?"

He Lin rubbed his hands and turned over a sign, which clearly read: "Yao Mengyu."

Xi Zhihui's eyes darkened slightly and she forced a smile:

"Sister Mengyu is lucky, I called her in..."

Before Xi Zhihui finished speaking, He Lin waved his hands and said:

"Don't worry, I'm turning over one."

An inexplicable blush appeared on Xi Zhihui's face.

Does your husband really want it so much?

He Lin licked his lips and turned over a sign again.

It says "Shui Qing Xin".

He Lin smiled and said expectantly:

"Let the two ladies come in."
