Chapter 1188: All I Can Do for Little Tiger Now Is This

xiu was a little surprised, but due to her innate good character, the truth that "don't take money from a scoundrel" was deeply ingrained in her. The surprise only lingered in her eyes for half a sec...Chapter 1188: All I Can Do for Little Tiger Is This

Zong Hu saw Fang Jinxiu gazing intently at a pile of stones, and finally walked over to join him.

"Haven't you ever opened these stones to take a look"

Zong Hu scratched his head sheepishly and said, "I don't know what this stone is for. I didn't dare to move it without your orders, so I just left it here."

"These stones look like they're just a bit smoother than ordinary stones, and I don't see anything else special about them. What are you going to do with so many stones"

Fang Jinxiu crouched down and picked up a jadeite rough the size of her palm, weighing it in her hand several times.

"Brother Zong Hu, have you ever seen jade"

Before, Zong Hu would definitely have shook his head. Jade is such an expensive thing, only the wives of wealthy people could afford it. They wouldn't be able to see it at all.

But ever since he started working for Jinxiu, the money in his hands began to have a surplus. Last year, Zong Hu finally saved enough money to buy Wang Yan'er a jade bracelet. The color might not be very good, but at least it was jade.

He nodded, "Met before. I also bought a jade bracelet for your sister-in-law."

When it came to this Zong Hu, he was a little embarrassed. Although the bracelet wasn't worth much, it was the biggest gesture of sincerity he could offer. After receiving it, his wife scolded him for spending money foolishly, but the smile on her face never faded for a moment.

At that moment, Zong Hu knew he had bought the right bracelet.

It's just that good jade is really too expensive, and Zong Hu doesn't have that much money.

He stared at the dark stone in Fang Jinxiu's hand, suddenly realizing something and pointing at it in surprise.

"Do you mean this black stone is jade"

Fang Jinshi nodded, "Yes, this is the rough jade. Jewelers sell jewelry made from polished and crafted jade, all cut from these stones."

Zong Hu was surprised and also picked up a stone to look at it carefully, but he looked at it for a long time and couldn't see any relationship between the stone and jade.

Fang Jinshu smiled upon seeing this, and immediately smashed the stone in her hand heavily onto the ground. In an instant, the jade raw ore shattered into several pieces.

She originally thought this stone was too small and wouldn't have any green. She just wanted to smash it open for Brother Zong Hu to take a look at the appearance of the jade inside. If she was lucky, she should be able to see a little bit of jade with a thicker white flesh.

Unexpectedly, a touch of green appeared within the rubble. Although only the size of a fingernail was visible, it was enough to shock Zong Hu.

He hurriedly picked up the jade shards on the ground, staring at the green glow in shock, speechless.

The jade bangle he sold to his daughter-in-law wasn't as richly colored and beautiful as this little stone.

"This is actually jade! Look, sis!"

Fang Jinshi's reaction wasn't as exaggerated as Zong Hu's. There was already a high probability that these jade stones could yield jade, it's just that her luck was exceptionally good. Even a small stone she picked up at random turned out to contain valuable jade.

“Cut out this piece the size of a fingernail, make it into a ring or polish it and set it in jewelry, its value could increase dozens or even hundreds of times.”

If enough green jade is mined, making more silver will be easy.

Zong Hu gazed at the several piles of emerald rough stones, each as large as a small hill, his eyes burning with excitement.

It turns out these black stones are so valuable.

He carefully placed the stone in his hand, and just then Fang Jinshu spoke.

"I'll find some tools for cutting the rough stones for you, and when they are ready, I'll ask Brother Zong Hu to help us open them up."

Zong Hu nodded repeatedly, "This is no problem, I'll take care of it."

Fang Jinshi said, “When the time comes and a piece of jade with good water head is opened up, I will have another jade bracelet made for my sister-in-law.”

Having lived with his sister-in-law for so many years, Zong Hu knew that refusing was pointless. If he didn't take this jade piece, Jinxiu would definitely find another way to give it to him later.

She never mistreats people who do things for her, whether they are family or hired help.

Therefore, Zong Hu just nodded without saying a word, thinking to himself that he would pick one that was similar when the time came. He certainly wouldn't be eyeing the best one.

Keep everything and sell it.

"Come on, let's go to the cellar."

After going down into the cellar, Zong Hu opened all the lids of the jars containing fine salt. He had originally planned to use small containers, but as the amount of salt refined increased, using only small containers was too cumbersome and costly. It would require hundreds or even thousands of jars, which was very troublesome.

Using a large cylinder can perfectly solve this problem.

When you need to use them, just repackage them.

Zong Hu probably didn't know that his unintentional action actually made Fang Jinxiu's life a lot easier.

Her purpose in coming today was actually to take all the refined salt away in her spatial pouch. It would be quite troublesome with small jars, and she wasn't taking this salt for retail purposes.

"The big salt jar is good."

Then Fang Jinshi found an excuse to get Zong Hu out, and with a wave of her hand, she put all the dozen or so large jars of salt into the space.

At this time, Wang Yanne finished dinner and hurried over to call the two of them to eat.

For fear of being late, Fang Jinshi left.

Zong Hu just came up from the cellar and bumped into his wife.

"How did you get up here all by yourself Where's your sister Dinner is ready, she wouldn't have left, would she"

Zong Hu shook his head. "He hasn't left, he's in the cellar. I was just about to go pour some tea for my siblings."

"Wang Yan'er breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. You should have finished talking about your business by now, right Why don't you call your siblings over here I've already prepared the food and drinks."

When Zong Hu saw the sky turning dark, he thought to himself that it was getting late. His younger siblings were still hungry, and salt, no matter how important, couldn't be more important than their empty stomachs.

"Okay, I'll go get it now."

As soon as he turned around, Fang Jinshu in the cellar had already heard the couple's conversation. She walked to the cellar entrance while saying,

"Zong Hu ge, you don't need to come down, I can see the salt is almost enough, I'll go up."

Wang Yaner hurried forward to lend a hand and pulled Fang Jinshi out.

At the dinner table, besides the three of them, there was also Xiao Hu, who was over five years old. The high fever he had as a child left him with many health problems.

Fortunately, these years Fang Jinshu has been diligently taking care of Xiao Xiaohu's health. The little guy can now run and jump. After a while apart, he seems to have grown taller.

"Sister-in-law, has Little Tiger grown taller again"

When talking about her son, Wang Yan'er, a smile filled with maternal love appeared on her face involuntarily.

"Yes, this boy is quite nimble and I don't know how he grew so quickly. He's already outgrown the new clothes we made for him during the Chinese New Year."

Fang Jinshi smiled, "As long as children get enough nutrition, they grow up very quickly."

“I have some homemade candies here. I'll have someone bring you a can later so that Little Tiger can eat a few every day. It's good for his growth.”

Children who grow too fast may experience growing pains due to calcium deficiency.

These medicated candies can effectively alleviate the symptoms of growing pains. If you don't have growing pains, you can also eat them as a calcium supplement snack without any harm.
