When Li Qinglin returned home, he handed over the shareholding agreement and equity warrant to Liu Xiuzhen for her to put it away. Liu Xiuzhen looked at the pieces of paper in her hand and was a little dazed. She asked Li Qinglin hesitantly: "Qinglin, did you buy these two pieces of paper with fifty dollars?"

Li Wanquan, who was on the side, had some knowledge. While happily putting the newly bought tobacco into his treasure cigarette bottle, he said, "I have long hair and short knowledge. When I was young, I worked in Pingyao, Shanxi. When people did business, they would pay for their own shares. By the end of the year, they would pay for this thing. This is called paper? This is the money for the 50 oceans and the dividends at the end of the year."

Liu Xiuzhen still didn't believe it and asked, "We don't work in his store. We can share money by relying on it at the end of the year? How much can we share?"

Li Wanquan packed the tobacco and replied, "I asked Zhengsheng during the Chinese New Year. He said that after Wantong Trading settled the accounts at the end of last year, each hundred ocean shares was divided into 20 oceans, and two oceans were left to be divided into this year. Qinglin's shares can only be considered a half-year dividend this year, and according to the dividends last year, it can be divided into at least five oceans."

Liu Xiuzhen only now believes that these pieces of paper are oceans. She originally wanted to put them in a wooden box, but she was afraid of being damp and moldy, and even more afraid of insects and mice. After thinking about it, Liu Xiuzhen finally found a small pot and put the equity agreement and equity certificate in it, then tied it tightly and put it in the safest place in the home.

After putting things in, Liu Xiuzhen went into the kitchen to prepare lunch. This year, the family's income is good, so the Li family no longer eats two meals a day, but three meals a day.

Li Qinglin was about to find Qian Duogui and let him enter the shares of Wantong Trading. Liu Xiuzhen remembered something and called Li Qinglin who was walking out.

In the kitchen, Liu Xiuzhen said to Li Qinglin while cooking: "Qinglin, the matchmaker I asked yesterday brought a reply. Your marriage with Jiang Meizhi has been settled. Your father and I will marry you during the slack season in the twelfth lunar month."

Li Qinglin was sweating profusely when he heard this. He had just settled a house with Wei Sanya, and the Jiang family agreed to the marriage again. One person had two public wives. Such a thing would not have happened in his previous life.

"I remember the Jiang family asked for a bride price of fifty oceans. Is there enough money for the family's bride price now?" Li Qinglin asked Liu Xiuzhen.

"It's almost done now." Liu Xiuzhen said proudly, and then settled the bill with Li Qinglin.

The 29th Army uniforms have ended at the end of May. Liu Xiuzhen only earned four yuan for spinning for the 29th Army uniforms this year. Now there is no need to buy a large amount of cotton to concentrate on spinning. Usually, it only takes a few kilograms of cotton to process sporadically. Therefore, the cost of buying cotton and spinning dividends were recovered, and a total of twenty-five yuan was paid. In addition, the ten oceans that Li Qinglin brought back Pan Kewei last time, and the two oceans that Li Wanquan and Li Qinglin earned for others for a short-term work some time ago. Liu Xiuzhen now has forty-one oceans in her hands. No wonder Liu Xiuzhen is very proud.

If you use money to buy a wife at this time, about thirty oceans would be enough. In fact, Jiang Meizhi's family did not really want a bride price of fifty oceans. Her family told the public that they would ask for so many bride prices in the first month of the year, just to scare away those young men they looked down upon. Since the matchmaker came to the house to see the mules and mule carts in the livestock shed, the half-large black pigs in the pigpen, and a large group of chickens in the yard, and passed these situations to the Jiang family, the Jiang family immediately agreed to the marriage and reduced the bride price to forty oceans.

Liu Xiuzhen has money now, and her black pig can still be sold by the end of the year. The money for the bride price is no longer a problem. Even if she is going to hold a marriage for Li Qinglin at the end of the year, she doesn’t need to borrow money. How can she not be proud?

At this time, there was no freedom in the marriage between men and women in rural areas, and they all followed the "partner's orders and matchmaker's words". Li Qinglin knew that these things were all decided by the adults and he just wanted to do it.

After talking about the marriage, Liu Xiuzhen talked about the wheat harvest again: "In a few days, I will go to be a wheat cook with your father and Uncle Wanxiang. Your aunt will take care of you at home. What should you do in the fields? Your aunt will arrange the animals in the family. You can ask Sanya to take care of them."

Li Qinglin said: "I still have a few dollars to earn for others to process parts. Being a maike is so tiring. I think you shouldn't go, right?"

Liu Xiuzhen said: "Your money is yours, we earn our money. You will have to support two more families in the future. Now you must save some money, so you can't spend it indiscriminately."

Li Qinglin agreed with Liu Xiuzhen's words very much, yes, the blessings of Qi people are indeed enviable, but the pressure on him has also doubled, and he really needs to make more money in the future.

While speaking, the lunch meal was ready.

"Half-year grain for bran and vegetables" is a true portrayal of the life of farmers at this time. At this time, there is not enough food for farmers. Especially in the season when the green and yellow are not connected, it is necessary to mix a lot of wild vegetables or even leaves to eat only half full. During this period, Li Qinglin has eaten a wok made of steamed persimmon cakes or wild dates and tamales, as well as various vegetables such as wild vegetables, locust flowers, locust leaves, elm seeds and even willow leaves, and vegetable cakes made of leaves mixed with corn flour, vegetable rolls, vegetable porridge, and vegetable buns. These foods look very large, but in fact they have little protein content and little calories. No matter how much they eat, they will not be too hungry. Li Qinglin himself feels that the appetite is amazing now.

The main food for lunch today is steamed sweet potato leaves. A lot of sweet potato leaves in the field have already been produced. Liu Xiuzhen picks them every day to feed the pigs, and steams them for eating them very tender.

Liu Xiuzhen washed the sweet potato leaves and dried them. Pour a little oil and mixed them well. After mixing, add an appropriate amount of corn flour to make it dry. Then add a little salt and mix well. Then put it in a steamer and steam over high heat. When eating, you usually need to dip the garlic paste.

After lunch, Li Qinglin told Liu Xiuzhen to go and take the copper wire condom to find out how expensive the money is.

In fact, today we didn’t go to trap a rabbit, but the two made an appointment to go to the mountains to test the gun. Since we got it back, we have been using Qian Duoqi to make samples. Recently, Qian Duoqi made a sample of the original gun. Today he returned the German manufacturing to Li Qinglin. Li Qinglin fired a rifle during military training in his previous life. He had never played with this famous box cannon, so he took out magazines and bullets from home and made an appointment with Qian Duoqi to go to the mountains to test the gun.

When shooting a gun, you naturally have to find a place that others can't see or hear. Li Qinglin and Qian Duogui made an appointment to climb over the back mountain, walk seven or eight miles and try the gun in a dense forest that is rarely visited.

The weather is neither cold nor hot now, and there is green everywhere. The wheat in the fields has turned yellow and is about to be harvested. Some unknown birds are chirping on the side of the road.

Qian Duogui was very interested and kept talking along the way, but he became more and more frightened. When he arrived at the edge of the dense forest, he stopped and said to Li Qinglin: "Qinglin, two people were robbed by bandits on Wohupo a few months ago. The dead bodies were placed there for many geniuses before they were discovered. The forest in front was so dense, would there be bandits?"

Li Qinglin laughed in his heart, there are no bandits in this Wohupo. The real "bandits" in the Wohupo are right in front of you. Even this German-made "bandits" were seized from those two people.

In order to cheer Qian Duogui up, Li Qinglin patted the German-made man on his waist and said to Qian Duogui: "What's wrong with having bandits? The guy in our hands is not a vegetarian, just do it with him."

Qian Duogui nodded and said, "Yes, just do it. Maybe we can still snatch the ones from him and sell them for money."

Even though he said that, Qian Duogui still picked up a dead wooden stick on the side of the road and held it in his hand to boost his courage. He was about to use it as a weapon when he really encountered bandits.
