The Lucky Farmgirl

The Fourth Brother had squandered his wealth through gambling, leaving their mother in a critical state. To make matters worse, the creditors even asked them to sell Manbao to settle the debts! In the village, whispers spread that the golden days of the Zhou Family's cherished Manbao were over. Their elderly mother clung to Manbao's hand, tears streaming down her face. However, Manbao tightly grasped a system in her hand, a tool that would lead her and her brothers and sisters-in-law to reclaim their fortunes. They ventured into agriculture, cultivating land, growing medicinal herbs, and establishing shops, steadily improving their lives. As their situation improved, concerns shifted to Manbao's marital prospects by the sister-in-laws. "Mr. Zhuang's grandson is an excellent match – educated and well-spoken. He is just perfect for you." "No! You should consider Mr. Qian's youngest son, who is handsome and well-mannered. You can count on him never to defy you." Suppressing a smile, Manbao responded, "My heart is already set. I choose Bai Shanbao, my childhood friend whom I've playfully scolded since we were young."

Chapter 424: Making Big Money

Both of them took the counting rods and went to find Mr. Zhuang, confirming several times before running back to calculate based on the examples Mr. Zhuang had given previously.

However, their speed still dropped quite a bit, and mistakes were frequent.

When they made errors, they couldn't help Bai Erlang, who began to sweat profusely in his haste; yet his speed at keeping the accounts had increased significantly, and even though he was slower, he wouldn't forget the numbers that had just been reported.

As he grew more adept, not only did he work with ease, but he also had the spare time to gloat over the flustered Bai Shanbao and Manbao.

Old Master Bai watched and sighed incessantly; people had now learned to use counting rods for calculations, and had already become very quick and smooth at it when calculating volumes earlier. It was expected that they would adapt quickly to weighing as well, yet you haven't even learned to use counting rods. What are you so proud of?
