Chapter 32 The storm is coming
Yang Shitou came here to get money. He thought he wouldn't be able to collect much in a day, but when the villagers knew that mushrooms could be sold for money without having to carry them to town, they immediately became excited.
Opportunities don't come often. In order to earn a little money, men, women and children in the village go to pick them, which leads to insufficient money.
Yang Shitou was embarrassed. He never thought that one day he would be able to spend money so much. In the past, a penny in his hand was considered a lot of money, but now... let's not mention it. Today is different from the past.
"I came here to get money, but the thousand coins have been used up." Yang Shitou said in a dull voice.
"It's gone so quickly?" Mei Luoxing exclaimed, "How much do you charge per pound?"
"Three cents per catty, so far we have received a total of more than three hundred and thirty catties."
Merome was surprised. He was told four cents per catty, but he harvested three cents per catty. This boy can do it!
"Brother Shitou, we saw you right." Melomei smiled slightly, "Let me go with you to check the quality of the mushrooms."
After walking a few steps, I suddenly thought of something and turned around and said, "Second sister, you can collect some more in the village. Brother Shitou and I will go see what he collected and come back later."
"Don't worry, Third Sister, I'll take it even if you don't tell me. This is a money-making job."
When Mei Luoxing heard that she was told to continue harvesting mushrooms, how could she not agree? If it weren't for the eldest sister's incident today, she would have gone there a long time ago. How could she wait until now?
Melo Mei nodded with confidence, but when she saw the Mei family yard, she felt uneasy about her home, so she went back to her room to explain a few words to Mero Tao, and then followed Yang Shitou to their village.
When he came to Sheep Shitou's shack again, he saw that the whole shack was full of mushrooms, but all his things were moved outside the shack.
"What are you doing?"
"Oh, I'm worried that the mushrooms will be stolen." Yang Shitou touched his nose sheepishly.
He doesn't have a good relationship with the people in the village. He has always kept his peace, but now they are willing to associate with him just because it is profitable!
He sees it very clearly and must be on guard against others!
Melome “…”
"How can you sleep at night if you put mushrooms at home like this? And all these mushrooms are covered here. They will all rot in a few days and cannot be sold."
Melome looked at him speechlessly, knowing that his concerns were correct, but they shouldn't be all piled up at home.
"Ah? What should I do? I didn't think so much about it at the time."
Sheep Shitou panicked. One tael of silver could not be wasted in his own hands.
Melome thought for a while and said: "Don't panic, it will be bad luck if you harvest too much. Look around you to see if there are any large stone slabs that are private and can be basked in the sun. We will transport the mushrooms there to dry them, and then they will be dry."
Easy to store and not too heavy.”
"You said I actually know a place like this. Come on, I'll take you to see if it's suitable for us to move."
"Okay, let's go and have a look."
Merome followed Sheep Shitou not far from his shack, and she saw a large stone slab with plenty of sunlight and a fence around it.
"This is?"
Melome was puzzled, this looked like someone else’s yard!
"I did this. This place is relatively remote and there are not many people there, so I built a fence and usually dry wild vegetables and other things here." Looking at Merome's confusion, Yang Shitou immediately explained.
He couldn't finish the wild vegetables he usually picked, so he dried them here and stored them for the winter.
"Not bad, Brother Shitou, you really have an idea." Melomei smiled appreciatively, "We can move the mushrooms here to dry them, maybe they will be dried quickly."
"Okay, I'll move it right away."
As soon as Sheep Shitou heard that it was OK, he immediately ran back to carry the mushrooms. Merlomei followed suit and quickly moved hundreds of kilograms of mushrooms to dry them.
"Brother Shitou, here are two taels of silver. You can keep collecting as much as you can."
Merome wiped the sweat from her forehead, took out two taels of silver from her arms and handed it to Sheep Stone.
There are not many scattered copper coins left, so we can only take silver.
"Silver, silver, I have never seen silver before. It turns out that silver looks like this!"
Yang Shitou took the silver in a daze, looked at it again and again, smelled it again, put it in his mouth and bit it, speaking incoherently.
Melome "..." Is the focus on the wrong thing?
She sold the recipes. The five taels of silver that Sun Changdun took as a deposit were bought here and there, and another two thousand coins were used to harvest mushrooms for Sheep Shitou and Merlot Xing, so they were gone long ago.
.
She bought books, paper, pens and other things that day from her own private treasury. She earned 240 taels from selling recipes and spent 28 taels to buy books. Now she gave out another 2 taels, leaving only 2 taels.
One hundred and ten taels.
It’s really money well spent!
She didn't dare to touch the few hundred pennies she earned from selling mushrooms, so she saved them and planned to find time to share them with her eldest sister and the others.
Although her sisters didn't say anything, she always felt that in order to have a good relationship, the accounts must be cleared.
Many relatives turn against each other, isn't it just because of the interests involved?
Merome gave the money, talked to Sheep Stone for a while, and politely refused his request to send her back. She climbed over the mountains and returned to the village by herself, picking some wild vegetables and mushrooms on the way and throwing them into her system.
.
I originally planned to go home first, but after thinking about it, I ran to the mountain again to see how many mushrooms Merlot had harvested.
"Second sister, how much have you collected today?"
As soon as Merlome reached the foot of the mountain, she saw Merloxing walking down the mountain with Beiluo on her back, so she stood there and waited.
"Probably more than a hundred pounds! Why are you here?"
Mei Luoxing walked down a few steps, carrying a load of pigweed in her back.
"Oh, I just came to take a look. Go back."
Melome and Melome talked while walking, and soon arrived at home.
When she got home, she found Mrs. Li carrying pig food to feed the pigs. When she saw the two of them coming back, she immediately said, "Erya, come back and cook. Sanya, help your second sister make the fire."
"oh!"
The two sisters agreed, and Mei Luoxing quickly carried Pig Cao to the pig pen, and then walked to the kitchen.
Mei Luomei went to the side to get firewood. Due to her short hands, it took a long time to get a few firewood, which made Mei Laoer, who was chopping firewood at the side, laughed and said, "Sanya, you can't get a few firewood like this."
Mei Laoer put down his axe, found a dustpan, put a big armful of firewood in it, and then said: "Let's go, dad will get you the kitchen."
"Okay, thank you dad."
Melome grinned and followed her father to the kitchen.
Although this cheap dad is honest and a bit patriarchal, he still loves the three sisters very much.
Based on this alone, she will definitely support him in his old age in the future.
"Oh, it would be great if he wasn't a mama's boy."
"What did you say? What treasure...man?"
Mei Luoxing was washing the dishes with loofah pulp when she suddenly heard her sister muttering something and couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing, I said I need to add more firewood."
Melo Mei casually threw a piece of firewood into the stove hole, and her eyelids twitched as she watched the Mei family members coming back one after another from outside.
Dear friends, I pushed it today, and I don’t know what to say. I just hope that you will vote for it, add it to your favorites, and leave comments. I hope it will be passed on... Crying...
