He Zifeng said: "It would be great if there was a shop." He has longed for a shop in the county since he was a child. The prosperous shop has been passed down for three generations, and his son will be able to live on the rent in the future. After sighing, he looked at Qiu Yu who was still a little worried, and said, "I'll see if there's anything good on the mountain tomorrow."

Last time, he picked mushrooms and sold them to mountain runners, earning more than twenty copper coins. The good things on the mountain are not just mushrooms, there are also many valuable ones. If he could find a branch and a half of wild ginseng, he would make a fortune. This time he planned to sell it in the county himself, and the price would be higher than the price paid by Mountain Runner.

Qiu Yu said, "Let me go with you. I know the mountains well." His father is an Orion and he grew up in the mountains since he was a child.

He Zifeng said: "If you leave too, you should be scared." This little kid has never left his parents.

He Zifeng looked at Qiu Yu, who still looked a little sad, and said, "Okay, go to sleep." Then he went to the ground and put out the oil lamp.

...

When Xiao Heran got up the next day, he found that his two fathers were missing. His little dad tidied up everything inside and outside the house. The house was much cleaner, Qiu Yu said: "There are vegetable dumplings in the pot."

"Yeah." Xiao Heran went to the kitchen, took a small bench stood on the bench, opened the lid of the pot, took a vegetable dumpling, hugged it, and started to eat it.

The wild vegetable stuffing was slightly bitter, and the whole grains scratched the throat. Even more delicate adults couldn't eat it, but his baby ate it hard. Sitting on the small bench, unable to concentrate. He finished eating and ran out to wash his hands. When he saw Qiu Yu, he spread his white and tender little hands to Qiu Yu and said, "Little daddy, I've finished eating." He looked like he was begging for praise.

Qiu Yu said: "You're so good."

Xiao Heran was happy when he was praised.

Qiu Yu said: "Ranran go out and play for a while."

Xiao Heran said: "I can help you with the work." He was afraid that his little father would not use him, so he also said: "I am very strong."

Qiu Yu said: "Then can you help me twist the rag?"

"Okay." Zaizai agreed immediately with a loud voice.

Qiu Yu raised her eyes and glanced at the sky. It was almost noon. She wondered if He Zifeng would be back for lunch.

He Zifeng is still working on the mountain at the moment. He was lucky enough to find a patch of mountain bracken and mountain celery.

Wild vegetables are also classified into high and low. For example, ordinary willow sprouts, balsam sprouts, mother-in-law's sprouts, etc. are fine to eat at home, but they are too hard to give away. However, mountain bracken and mountain celery have a special flavor that people in the county like very much and can be sold at high prices.

He Zifeng harvested nearly two hundred kilograms, put them in a basket, and went to the county seat. During temple fairs or large markets, there will be bullock carts specially used to pull work. But usually, I can only walk by myself.

There is no light debt for a long journey. Just walking to the county seat is tiring. I only eat a handful of wild vegetables.

He was so fresh that he couldn't let the poisonous sun burn him down, so he took off his clothes and covered them up. I borrowed a wooden cart from a neighbor's house and walked for more than two hours under the scorching sun. My throat started to smoke, and the soles of my feet felt like pins and needles.

Fortunately, I finally arrived in the county. I have a foundation from my previous life and have some understanding of things in the county. He found a restaurant in the county and said, "Do you accept mountain bracken and mountain celery?" The owner of this restaurant is a food lover and likes to bring friends to the restaurant to eat on weekdays. Although there are not many serious customers, they know their stuff and eat well.

For example, this mountain bracken is the fattest and tenderest when eaten in this season. If it is eaten in another half month, it will be old and lose its crisp texture.

When the waiter heard this, he quickly said: "I'll ask the shopkeeper for you.

After a while, the shopkeeper came out, looked at He Zifeng, and said, "Let me take a look." Then he took a look. The mountain bracken and mountain celery are as fresh as if they have just been picked. They are pinched gently with your hands and the moisture is sufficient.

The shopkeeper said with joy on his face: "I want both. Mountain bracken costs five cents per catty, and mountain celery costs three cents per catty." These two wild vegetables have a good flavor, and you can pickle them if you can't finish them all.

He probably wouldn't be able to finish it all. If his boss heard about these wild vegetables, he would invite his friends over for a couple of meals. There is nothing left. After the weighing, the settlement was nine hundred and sixty cents. For He Zifeng, it was a huge sum of money.

The shopkeeper said: "If you have any rare things in the future, I will send them here. I will definitely not lose anything to you." His boss's family is rich and he has several shops in big cities. He opened this shop just to make friends. He looked at the store. At first glance, the chefs here are all hired from other places.

The reason why I offered such a high price this time was because I wanted him to continue sending it next time.

He Zifeng agreed, and with the money he exchanged, he went to a grain store and bought twenty pounds of white flour and twenty pounds of polished rice. This is four cents per pound. One hundred and sixty coins were spent.

He Zifeng bought a piece of light blue muslin and spent another three hundred coins. The remaining five hundred coins were hidden in a backpack, so he could not see it, so he took it home.

He didn't feel anything when he came. He was really tired walking back. He happened to catch up with a cattle driver walking back. Anyway, he was going back empty. He Zifeng gave him five cents to take him on board and put the cattle on the board. car. Anyway, the place they want to go is very close, so they will wait for the bullock cart to arrive. He would be home in another two-quarters of an hour's walk.

When I went back, I saw two little palm-sized rabbits on the roadside. It was probably that the big rabbit had been caught for meat, but the little rabbit was left alone and was carried back by He Zifeng in his arms.

They lived in the most remote area of ​​the village, and no one saw them at all. When I went back from a distance, I looked inside the fence. Qiu Yu and Xiao Heran were working. He Zifeng said: "Son, look what I brought back for you."

As soon as Xiao Heran heard what He Zifeng said, he ran out quickly. Then He Zifeng took out the two little gray rabbits he had carried. Xiao Heran looked surprised: "Rabbit."

Qiu Yu also came out. Only He Zifeng was so spoiled. When I went out, I didn't forget to find a bunny for my son to play with.

He Zifeng gave the basket to Qiu Yu, and Qiu Yu was also surprised. There were rice, noodles, and clothes, all things his family needed. How much would it cost? Scroll down further and there are actually four hundred and ninety-six copper coins?
