Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? There are dozens of old and young people in Lao Wangtou's family, and eating a meal is like a banquet. In the same neighborhood, in another courtyard, Lao Li's family seems much more deserted.

    In the courtyard, Lao Li Tou came back with his grandchildren. His son Li Xi was reading the newspaper leisurely, and his daughter-in-law Sun was busy making lunch. Seven or eight dishes were already placed on an Eight Immortals table.

    "The price of rubber has gone up again. I really regret it. Why didn't I plant rubber in the first place?"

    Li Xi looked at the newspaper. When he saw that the price of rubber in the newspaper had risen to 170 taels per barrel, he felt regretful.

    He is a sailor, and he can be regarded as one of the first people to go to sea. Although he comes from a poor family, he has now accumulated a lot of wealth.

    He has purchased a large number of properties in Beijing, Tianjin, and Songhu. There are more than a dozen houses and four or five stores. In addition, here in Nanyang, he also has a two thousand-acre plantation and bought dozens of  A slave grows sugar cane exclusively for himself.

    ¡°In addition, I still have a lot of stocks on hand, worth tens of thousands of taels of silver. It can be said that I am standing on the wave of the times and one of the typical representatives of the new generation who have made a fortune.

    In the past, poor children like him who came from rural areas had no chance of success. They worked hard in the fields all year round and rarely had a few meals to eat. Many people could not even marry a wife and were too poor.  Three generations, because there is no third generation.

    However, as the tide of the times came, he was lucky enough to seize the tide of the times. He first worked in the industry under Liu Jin's command, learned cultural knowledge and was able to read and write, and then entered the Tianjin Maritime College to study, becoming the earliest  seaman.

    This is how we have our current family business. Calculated in terms of comprehensive assets, it is no worse than a landlord in a small place.

    "Humph~"

    When Lao Litou heard what his son Li Xi said, he snorted in front of him in great displeasure.

    "Dad, who messed with you again?"

    Li Xi put down the newspaper in his hand and quickly helped Lao Litou sit down.

    People in the Ming Dynasty, regardless of whether they are poor or rich, the most important thing is to pay attention to filial piety. A filial person will be praised by everyone, and an unfilial person will be despised.

    "Humph~"

    ¡°Every day I know about rubber, stocks, houses, this product and that product.¡±

    "What's the use of making so much money? How many sons do you have to pass it on to?"

    Old Li Tou was very unhappy. He looked at his grandchildren who were playing in the yard. The two grandchildren were naturally his treasures and his favorites. As for the six granddaughters, he was a little annoyed just by looking at them. They all gave birth to losers.

    Now the Beijing-Tianjin area is a little different from before. Everyone has money. When marrying a daughter, not only will there be no betrothal gifts, but a large amount of dowry will also be given. Especially Li Xi and Wang Zhengyuan, who have some status.  , If you are a person of honor, you must be able to do it when marrying a daughter, otherwise it will be embarrassing.

    "Dad, you're here again. I don't have two sons."

    When Li Xi heard this, he immediately felt helpless. Every time he came back, his father almost always had to explain this matter to him.

    "Are two sons a lot?"

    "Do you know how many sons Wang Zhengyuan's family has?"

    &#24378&#29306&#32&#116&#105&#97&#110&#108&#97&#105&#120&#119&#46&#99&#111&#109&#32&#35835&#29306&#12290"He now has twelve sons  , and there are three concubines who are still pregnant. When the family eats, four big tables are set up, just like having a banquet. How lively and wonderful it is."

    "There are only a few people in our family. If these girls get married again in a few years, there will only be a few people in it. Don't you think it's deserted and shabby?"

    "It doesn't matter if you have money. There is no one in Beijing and Tianjin who doesn't have any wealth. Do you think it's great that you have a few filthy riches?"

    "Are you better than those big families who open factories and run businesses?"

    "You are just a little better than the migrant workers, but no one has more sons than you."

    "The competition now is not about who has more money or a big family, but who has more family members and more sons. His old Wangtou is like herding sheep every day. When he goes out, there will be a large herd."

    ¡°As for me, it¡¯s like herding cows. I just take three or two big cows and calves with me, and I¡¯ll know by comparing them.¡±

    "Now who doesn't praise Lao Wang for his good fortune?"

    "In a dozen years, when his grandsons have grown up, there will be hundreds of people in the family. As for our family, no matter how big your family fortune is, it will be of no use if you have no one."

    Old Li Tou said as he??.

    "Li Xi, what do you think?"

    Old Li nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Li Xi and asked.

    "Dad, it's really not necessary. Having two sons is enough."

    Li Xi was helpless. Seeing his wife's aggrieved look, he didn't want to do it even more.

    "It's not necessary. This matter is settled like this. Come with me to the slave market and have a good selection later."

    "You who go to sea all the year round and often go to Korea and Japan, you'd better bring me some concubines from Korea and Japan."  #32&#35835&#29306

    Old Li Tou really hated that iron could not become steel, so he turned to Mrs. Sun and said: "From now on, you are the official wife, so you should do less of these rough jobs and teach the concubines more and let them do it."

    "Of course, if Li Xi gets a new person and forgets the old one, you tell me and I will keep it and give him a few sticks."

    "I see."

    Mrs. Sun felt aggrieved, but there was nothing she could do.

    Looking at his husband-in-law Li Xi, he looked even more helpless. He was really speechless when meeting such a father.

    How can there be such a person who has to control whether he takes a concubine or not, and forces himself to take a concubine?  Zhida org.com Zhixiao

    "Let's go, let's go~"

    "Go to the slave market and have a look. I heard what Old Wangtou said. There are special slaves sold to people as concubines in the slave market. They are all in good condition and they are not big. You can bring more money and don't pay back later.  It¡¯s shameful that I didn¡¯t bring any shopping.¡±

    Seeing that both of them had no objections, Lao Wangtou walked out angrily
