Liang Han scooped up a large bowl of radish and pork ribs soup for Zhang Qingzhu, smiled and said to him, "I bought some spices today, which are very suitable for stewing meat. You can try it and see if it is delicious."
Zhang Qingzhu took a sip of the soup first , his eyes lit up. "It's delicious. I really have a good time today."
"Yeah, it's better to come early than coincidence." Liang Han took a few pieces of meat from the basin for him, "If you come a day late, you won't be able to eat it. "
"It shows that I am lucky and blessed." Zhang Qingzhu said cheerfully.
Liang Han saw that he was happy to eat, as if he had forgotten all the unhappy things before.
He smiled, the people here are relatively simple, as long as you can eat enough and occasionally eat some meat, you will feel good.
Zhang Qingzhu ate a mouthful of radishes and said in surprise, "The radishes are so delicious after stewing like this."
"Well, eat more, there are still some in the pot."
Zhang Qingzhu gnawed at the bones and said, "I'm hungry today, at least I can eat it. Two bowls."
Liang Han said with a smile, "Don't worry, take care of yourself."
Zhang Qingzhu was delighted to hear this, remembering that he went to the county seat today, and asked, "Why did you go to the county seat today?"
"Go buy a few bites. Thinking about selling bean sprouts in two days."
Zhang Qingzhu didn't believe it. "You lie, how do beans sprout in such a cold day?"
Seeing what he said, Zhang Qingzhu looked so confident. "Is what you said true? Can you really grow bean sprouts?"
Liang Han nodded. "Yes, I made it two days ago."
Zhang Qingzhu was surprised. "So Say, you can go and sell bean sprouts to make money?"
Liang Han nodded. "I have this plan."
Zhang Qingzhu thought for a while and thought, "You can definitely make a lot of money."
Liang Han said in a very plain tone, "I can earn some, but not too much, that is to make some money while everyone doesn't know how."

Zhang Qingzhu said enviously. "That's not bad, at least in before new vegetables grow, you can sell them. Even if new vegetables grow, if you sell bean sprouts, someone will buy them."
He asked curiously, "Why don't you look very happy, there is such a shouldn't you be very happy with the way to make money? If it were me, I would be very happy."
Liang Han smiled. "I don't feel unhappy either. It's just not as exciting as you think."
"Why?" Zhang Qingzhu wondered why he was not excited, if he was, he would be so happy that he couldn't sleep.
Liang Han explained. "This is not a business that can be done for a long time. After someone thinks about it, there will be no profit to make. Besides, going out to sell vegetables in the winter and earning hard money is nothing."
Zhang Qingzhu frowned. "It's wrong to think so, earning a penny is a penny. Isn't all money earned through hard work? Many people still don't have a way to make money. You are afraid of hard work."
Injustice, it's just that everyone has different knowledge and values. He said it was hard money, but he didn't say he didn't want to do this hard work.
The reason why he is not so excited is that he think this is a small business, and the money he make is like hard work.
Just like earning 4,000 from a part-time job and 4,000 from a small business, who would be excited about something.
Liang Han explained to him, "I didn't say no, so how could you just convict me. I just said that I didn't earn much, so I don't need to be excited."
Zhang Qingzhu judged, "greedy."
"Yes, what do you say? It's all wrong, I should concentrate on eating." Liang Han said with a helpless smile.
Zhang Qingzhu continued to preach. "It doesn't make sense for you to say that. It's good to make some money in winter. People can't be too high and too far."
Zhang Qingzhu nodded: "Yes, that's what it means. We are ordinary people, don't always think about earning unusual money. My mother said that if you want to live a high-ranking life, you have to pay thousands of times of hard work, and you don't want to suffer that hardship. , don't be so high-minded. Just like everyone else, there's nothing wrong with living an ordinary life."

Liang Han nodded: "I understand, you have to be willing to be ordinary and enjoy the ordinary. I didn't want to do that. I just want to live a better life."
When Zhang Qingzhu heard what he said, he couldn't help but sneer: "Live a good life? When did you ever think of this?"
Thinking about what the original owner did, After passing people who don't want tomorrow, Liang Han is really not good at refuting, so he can only say: "When everyone wants to understand, I suddenly woke up and realized that I want to live a good life? If you don't believe it, you can just wait and see. It's over."
Zhang Qingzhu asked suspiciously: "Are you telling the truth? Are you bluffing?"
Liang Han laughed: "If you don't believe me, just wait and see."
"Okay, I'll see if you change it. Change. You can't change..."
Liang Han quickly stopped his words: "Hey, I'm eating, what are you talking about."
Zhang Qingzhu smiled and shut up: "Anyway, I'll wait and see if you do it or not. What if you can't do it?"
After thinking about it, Liang Han said with a smile, "How about we make a bet?"
Zhang Qingzhu asked, "What bet?"
"If I'm still as lazy as I used to be. But in life, I will lose ten money to you. If I live my life well, you will..." Liang Han thought about it, and regretfully said, "You don't have any money to lose to me."
Zhang Qingzhu was dissatisfied: " I'm sure I don't have ten coins! How can I bet?"
Liang Han deliberately teased, "Actually, you don't have any money. If you lose, you can marry me."
Zhang Qingzhu glared at him. "I knew you were not at ease. "
Liang Han laughed and said, "How can it be considered unscrupulous. If you bet, you have to have a lot of money. I will take out ten coins. If you don't have any money, don't you have to bet yourself?"
"It's like ten coins."
Liang Han smiled and said, "But if I lose, I'm willing to owe you ten coins. Would you like to bet with me with ten coins?"
Zhang Qingzhu thought about it, he still wanted to win the ten coins that the opponent bet.
Even if Liang Han doesn't have that much money, it's money to owe him money, but. "We have to set the time for the bet, I think it's only a year.."
Twenty penny is equivalent to twenty taels of silver, and it's not bad for the villagers to have two penny left a year.
Liang Han smiled and asked. "Then we have to agree, if I really make so much money, would you be willing to marry me?"
"It must be earned by yourself, you are not allowed to steal or rob, and you cannot borrow it from others. Make up the number." Zhang Qingzhu thought for a while, and said, "You're cheating. If you want me to marry you, give me the twenty money. If you borrowed the money, it must be revealed."
Liang Han asked, "Whatever you say?"
Zhang Qingzhu raised his head. "I, Zhang Qingzhu, talk of course. But don't forget, if you don't earn enough, you have to give me twenty dollars. If you win, you have to give him twenty danglings of money, which will be used as a betrothal gift. There is always a price to pay for marrying someone's son."
Zhang Qingzhu was the person he got along with most when he came here, and the other person's personality and appearance were also to his liking.
He originally thought that he and Zhang Qingzhu would have nothing to do with each other, but now it seems that it is very likely that they will come together, and he is very happy with the result.
Zhang Qingzhu was also very happy.
He felt that it was impossible for the other party to make enough money in a year. He was very happy when he thought that he would be able to become Liang Ruffian's creditor in one year.
