Chapter 46 Alternative Trading
In her excitement, she walked around the five peaks and finally stopped on the snow-capped ice peak. Looking at the large land, she finally had an idea.
She has always wanted to cultivate high-quality winter wheat seeds, but the space is as warm as spring. The seeds grown in this environment make her feel unsure. If the young seedlings are frozen to death, that year's harvest will be in vain.
This mountain is the highest. Except for the snow on the top of the mountain, the temperature below is similar to the outside world. She ran all over the mountain and was surprised to find that with the difference in altitude, one mountain can cover all four seasons!
I found a flat area and spread the wheat seeds evenly. There was no fertilizer. I only had to water the spiritual spring to get the wheat. Then I transplanted the ginseng to the mountain. The environment here was more suitable for them.
The next day, various sounds came from the window, including the chirping of birds and the hawking of vendors. Listening to the long sounds, it seemed that you could smell the fragrance.
"Dad, wake up," she wiped her saliva and slapped the door hard. She was sleeping so deeply!
"Are you up? Dad is already awake." Unexpectedly, the voice came from behind. Ye Ying smiled and carried a bucket of hot water.
After the father and daughter finished washing, they planned to go shopping on the street and fill their stomachs.
Hua Town has a long history, and is said to have existed for more than a hundred years. Most of the houses on the street are built of blue bricks, and most of the ones along the street are two-story. The streets are paved with stone slabs, which are much cleaner than the dirt roads in the countryside.
"Dad, they sell food over there. Let's go there quickly."
Steamed buns, flatbreads, and Ye Xing's favorite wontons. As soon as they sat down, following the scent, they saw the long-lost fried dough sticks! There aren't many oil crops here, and fried dough sticks are definitely a rarity. When I asked, they were indeed very expensive.
, the price of one stick is enough to buy three buns.
In order to satisfy her greed, she bought ten sticks at once, six of which were quietly thrown into the space.
"What is this? It's softer than a fruit." Dad had never eaten it before, so after taking a bite, he squinted his eyes because of the delicious taste.
"It's delicious. These are called fried dough sticks. We can make them when we get home."
Vegetarian oil must be used to fry fried dough sticks, so she didn't think about it during the Chinese New Year and just fried some sesame leaves, commonly known as fruits.
If the third aunt is willing, she can open a snack bar and make fried dough sticks with soy milk. That would be the best breakfast. As for the parents, forget it. After all, cooking is too hard.
After eating, he saw that his father was not in good spirits, so he asked him to go back and rest, and planned to go shopping by himself. In fact, Ye Xing also had another mission, which was to find a weapon for Xiaoqing to use, even if it was just a cover-up, although the spell
It's awesome, but it has to be hidden.
After walking a few steps, I saw a blacksmith shop. When I went in and asked, I found that there really was one.
"There was only one big knife, which was customized by someone else. For some reason, I didn't come to pick it up for more than half a year. The shop couldn't afford to wait, so I had to sell it."
She looked at it and saw that the materials were good and the craftsmanship was good. She should be able to sharpen it by herself. When she asked about the price, it cost two taels of silver. Compared with farm tools such as hoes, they were much more expensive.
"The guest officer also knows, who dares to make weapons? If you are caught, you will have to go to jail. If you don't process it for others, how can this little old man have the courage?"
Ye Xing suddenly woke up. She almost forgot that private sales of weapons were not allowed in Xuanji Country. No wonder the boss looked around and looked cautious.
I gave him two taels of silver, found an alley, and threw the sword back into space. Xiao Qing was still in seclusion, so I would call him after he passed Panlong Mountain.
She could see the street as far as the eye could see, and she had no intention of shopping. She spent a lot of money to buy a donkey cart this time. Although she had the fifth master's banknote, she was still not sure. She happened to see a drug store and bought a drugstore.
small ginseng,
"Hey, you haven't been away from the soil for a long time. Little girl, did you pick this yourself?"
In this era, ginseng is all wild, and there is no cultivation technology. It is all produced in the mountains. Today, I met an expert, and I can actually tell the picking time.
"My father picked it. He came back quickly. He was really tired and asked me to sell it."
She tried to act smart, even a stupid girl couldn't do this.
"Well, it's really good, and the quality is also very good. There happens to be a customer waiting for it to save its life. Xiao Liuzi, why don't you go to Li's house and tell me that you have found the fresh ginseng. It's a rare opportunity. If you are willing to come up with it,
At that price, bring back the banknote."
When the waiter went out, the shopkeeper smiled at her and said,
"If you're lucky, I'll give you two hundred taels. If the Li family thinks it's too expensive, they can only take one hundred taels. After all, it's in my hands."
Uh, is there still such a business? Ye Xing also opened his eyes, thought for a moment, and understood what the shopkeeper meant. Using it as medicine while it is fresh is a gimmick, because it is rare and requires a high price. If people don't use it, then they have to put it aside.
It won't be so expensive if you sell it again.
After a while, the boy was jolting around, panting hard, nodding his head, holding a piece of paper in his hand.
"It's done, Xiao Wu, bring me the banknote, it's two hundred, little girl, we have to do something, come back next time."
Ye Xing glanced at the waiter and saw a word, "Douduo". It seemed that the shopkeeper made a net profit of three hundred. However, it is normal for people to make more money by treating diseases.
Back at the inn, her father was already fast asleep, and she also returned to her room. The father and daughter had already agreed to set off in the middle of the night. If the journey went well, they would arrive at Tubaozi City tomorrow night, which is the city closest to the frontier.
It used to be the barracks.
There was another reason for setting off in the middle of the night. It was noon when we passed Panlong Mountain, and the bandits probably wouldn't come down the mountain. Although Xiaoqing had the confidence, her father didn't know.
Because he left early, there were no people along the way. Ye Xing was afraid that his father would be sleepy, so he talked about Zhuangzi.
"Dad, our village will definitely need to hire someone. Have you decided who to hire?"
"I thought about two families. The Zhang family at the east end of the village. Their three and a half sons have grown up in no time. They originally had two acres of land. Alas, I sold them all due to illness, and no one was left.
, your Uncle Zhang is a good farmer and a good farmer."
Not to mention anything else, although this family wears lots of patches, their clothes are clean, which shows that they are hard-working people.
"Where is the other one?"
"The clan leader went to my father and said that the third house has not been separated. Now there are more people than land, and he wants to spread out how many people can come to our house."
The third room? Because the family was divided, she didn’t have a deep impression. However, the family bullied her grandmother back then. I wonder if the third room was involved?
"Didn't you discuss it with Nai? What did she say?"
"I wanted to wait until the New Year, but I haven't thought about it yet."
"I think the Zhang family is pretty good. It's not a lot of trouble if we don't have any relatives. It's also convenient to use."
After all, he is a long-term worker. If a few elders come, how can dad give orders?
"I also want to invite the Zhang family. When the family was separated, the third brother often bullied our eldest uncle and third uncle, who were orphans and widowers."
What are you still hesitating about? Ye Xing rolled her eyes speechlessly. Because she left early, she was also hungry. She found some dry food and brought her father a tube of spiritual spring and a wisdom fruit. What is this?
