Li Hai immediately stopped talking.

His wife sneered: "Ha! Do you really think of so many good people in this world? You are the only fool who gets some benefits and is grateful and treats people like you. Look at it yourself. There are so many people in the village doing business with the Li Er family. Apart from you taking the initiative to help with the autumn harvest, who else has come to you?"

Li Hai: "…"

"You stopped working for a day and went to the door to help you do a day of work. What do you think of those partners? Are they saying you are stupid? Now when everyone is asking for help, you don't even make money, so you go to do a piece of work with others..."

Li Hai defended: "They didn't say they couldn't go, they just said to wait, and they would finish their work..."

Before he could finish his words, his wife said unhappy: "Yes, I'll finish the work. I'll ask you, how wide is Li Er's family? When you finish your work one by one, Li Er's family will have already taken over, and you still need your help? You fool, only I was blind and thought you were honest and would not suffer any loss when you married you, so I married you. Otherwise, if you were stupid, which silly girl would marry you?"

Li Haidulang: "I'm stupid, then you still marry me, aren't you even more stupid?"

"What did you say?" His wife immediately glared.

Li Hai quickly said, "No, I didn't say anything."

"Hmph!" His wife asked him to wash his feet quickly and go to bed.

I just have to do a day of work for someone today, but I will go out to work tomorrow. If I don’t have a good rest, will I be tired of my health?

Li Hai honestly poured the foot wash water by himself and then returned to the bed. Although his wife was a bit fierce, she was actually quite good to him, right?

"Why did you get so high?" Bian Pingling realized that she seemed to have forgotten one thing, that is, who is the emperor of this world?

There seems to be no related memory in the original owner's memory.

"Gao? I've always been in this way." Li Er looked confused, as if he didn't quite understand why his sister-in-law had this question?

Isn’t the land tax paid all the time?

Bian Pingling pursed the corner of his lips: "What are you going to do with wasteland? I remember that after three years of land reclamation, I have to pay taxes."

It is because there are many taxes paid for land reclamation, and the talents in the village are not so active. Although it was free in the first three years, the taxes paid in three years are not cheap.

The tax paid is not only counted as the number of land in the family, but also as the population. The tax paid is higher with more land and less people. The tax paid with more people and less land is relatively lower, but it is equivalent to half of the harvest in the fields and is not cheap. For example, when Li Hongyun was still there, he had to pay half of the thin acre of land.

"Just pay it, we have no land in our family anyway, so we will only pay half of it." Li Er said, "We have so many people in our family, except for women and men, each of them can have two acres of land, which is eight acres. Our family has less than four acres of wasteland, and we can also open a few more acres of land."

Liu Kang said: "My business will definitely grow bigger and bigger in the future, and then the business tax will be included in my name."

Liu Cuihua was startled: "Brother..."

Although doing business is indeed profitable, once you pay the commercial tax, you will be a merchant. Scholars, farmers, industrialists, and merchants are the lowest-ranking people, and future generations cannot participate in the imperial examination.

"Brother, you can't, we only have the only one with the surname Liu..." She is a girl and will definitely marry her in the future. The child born is also the surname of her husband's family, and it has nothing to do with the surname Liu.

Bian Pingling didn't react at first, but when he saw Liu Cuihua's reaction, he remembered this matter and frowned slightly: "Brother Kang, let's talk about this later."

"Yes, let's talk about this later. We are too poor now, so we will find a way to make some money," Li Er also spoke quickly and said, "When we make enough money in the future, we will..."

Liu Kang interrupted him: "When is it enough? Make money to build a house or marry the sisters in the family? Second brother, I know this. There is nothing wrong with being a businessman. If you have money to make money, eat food, and live in a house, you can't participate in the imperial examination at most. If you don't participate, you won't participate. Anyway, we are mud-legged. Even if you really have money in the future, you may not be able to read anything. The clan leader is so rich that they don't send it out, so we shouldn't think about it."

Li Wu, Li Qi, you look at me, I look at you, I dare not speak out about this kind of topic.

They are still young and don’t understand the importance of imperial examinations. They just vaguely feel that it seems to be a serious matter for businessmen to pay business taxes.

Bian Pingling suddenly woke up and said, why did she always feel that she had forgotten something? It turned out to be this.

She glanced at Li Wu, Li Qi and the others, and she remembered it - she seemed to have forgotten to send them to study.

Whether in the previous life or in this life, reading is the most important way to change a person's destiny.

My God, how could she forget such an important thing?

I just want to make money to build a new house, buy a new house, and improve my life. Why did I forget about studying?

"What are you saying? You must study." Bian Pingling made a decision directly, "Lao Wu and Lao Qi want to go, and Brother Kang must go. Even the third brother must stay in the school and recognize his words."

Li Sanyi Dai: "I want to go too?! Sister-in-law, I... I'm too old... I'm 14..." In a few years, I can get married.

Moreover, he felt that with his brain, reading, etc., it was a life-threatening thing.

"Sister-in-law, do you really want to send us?" Li Wu was startled, "But, but our family has no money..."

"I made some money, but it wasn't enough for us to study, right?" Li Qi said weakly, "I seem to have heard from the boy from the Li Zheng family that studying is very expensive. The Li Zheng family just wants to send him to study, and he can't eat meat a few times a year..."

The more I talked about it, the less confident I felt that it was difficult for even the Li Zheng family to study, and the situation in their family could not afford to study.

"That kid Li Mo was able to pass the scholarship because their ancestors had studied. I think we are indeed a bit uneasy." Li Wu thought about it and felt so.

"Sister-in-law, I won't go. I'm going to let Lao Wu and Lao Qi go. I'll be a businessman. If I make money, I will support them to study." Liu Kang said.

Bian Pingling slapped Liu Kang in the head: "What nonsense? You all go. I'll let you go, you go, don't refute."

"Sister-in-law..." Liu Kang was anxious, "Lao Wu and Lao Qi are right. Studying is really expensive. If we really want to send them to study, the little money our family earns now is not enough. A person only needs ten taels of silver for a year of repair, not to mention other pens, ink, paper, inkstones, clothes, food, etiquettes given to his husband every year, contact with classmates, etc., all of which cost money."

Bian Pingling looked at him calmly, with a look of doubt: "How did you understand so clearly? Brother Kang, have you not asked about it specifically?"
