Chapter 12 Crazy Acquisition of Seeds
The man saw that they bought a lot of things, so he was in a good mood and gave them two pockets.

Yin Ziying was very happy when she got two free bags. In her previous life, she also bought things online, and she only bought things with free shipping.

Now that I bought food and sent bags, I feel very comfortable.

After buying good things, there are more than 100 cash left in her hand, Yin Ziying said to Uncle Gu:

"Uncle, I want to grow some vegetables in the yard, and I need to buy rapeseed."

Hearing her words, Uncle Gu felt that this belonged to the Gu family, and couldn't help but feel relieved: "Very well, I'll take you to buy vegetables right now."

The three of them walked for a while before arriving at the stall selling seeds, and Yin Ziying was overjoyed.

There are many small bags side by side on the stall, and the grown vegetables beside the bags show that the boss is very careful.

Most of the farm workers in this era were illiterate, but now they can understand it just by looking at the pictures.

But Yin Ziying was still a little helpless, the picture was not so vivid, and she could barely recognize what kind of vegetables it was.

"Hey, little lady, what kind of rapeseed do you want to buy? My family's rapeseed is used for living, and it's big."

Yin Ziying said, "What's the price of your rapeseed?"

"Little lady is very happy when she sees it. I have all rapeseeds for one penny and two cents. They are very cheap. I will keep you buying them and planting them to eat fresh vegetables every day."

Yin Ziying frowned, it's okay to sell vegetable seeds at this price, but also to sell beans as big as this, so one penny can only buy a few seeds?
She couldn't help but blurted out: "Boss, are your bean seeds also at this price?"

The vendor smiled and said, "Little lady, my kind of seed was shipped from the south, so it's cheaper in itself!"

Uncle Gu blocked the way: "Ziying, we don't need to buy bean seeds. Your aunt has some other bean seeds, so she can share some with you."

Even though the uncle said so, Yin Ziying knew very well that each household here only had a small vegetable patch, and they only grew their own food, and there would be no extra vegetable seeds at all.

She liked to eat beans very much in her previous life, and now that she sees the seeds, she will definitely buy them.

She smiled and said to Uncle Gu, "Uncle, it's fine, I'll just buy it for one yuan and go back and plant it for a try."

This is what she was thinking, she could buy a few seeds for a penny, and she planted them in the space first, and then moved them out to make them easier to plant.

Uncle Gu wanted to say something, but then he thought about it, his nephew and daughter-in-law just planted and ordered vegetables, so he didn't stop him anymore, and besides, it was just a matter of pennies, so it's not good for his uncle to say too much.

In the end, Yin Ziying spent fifteen Wen to buy fifteen kinds of rapeseed. Gu Yunxian and Uncle Gu looked at it with pain, it was all money.

Fifteen Wen is a lot, and pork only costs eighteen Wen a catty, and they can't buy a catty of meat a year.

Yin Ziying knew that Uncle Gu and the others would be reluctant to part with them, so she stopped buying anything, after all, the fruit trees she wanted to buy were not available here.

She came here this time mainly to find out the prices of various things, and her goal has been achieved.

One penny is equal to one dollar in later generations, and one tael of silver is 1000 yuan.

Meat costs eighteen cents a catty, and vegetables cost one to two cents a catty.

But lard is more expensive, thirty yuan a catty.

Yin Ziying bought a catty of tofu for two Wen and a catty of bean curd for six Wen, but she couldn't afford meat.

Yin Ziying also looked at other prices.

Cloth is calculated on a horse basis, coarse cloth is worth [-] cash, and fine cotton cloth is [-] cash.

In the town today, I didn't buy much, but Yin Ziying walked around with Uncle Gu to get a better understanding of the market.

Yin Ziying followed Uncle Gu to continue shopping, bought five Wen and five eggs, and then went home together.

The egg was to be bought for Gu Yunxuan and Gu Yunrui, and Yin Ziying had promised Gu Yunxuan to buy it for her.

Uncle Gu came to see her selling eggs, but he disagreed, saying that his family had eggs, but he couldn't handle Yin Ziying.

When Yin Ziying and the others returned to Baijia Village, it was just noon, when Gu Yunxuan saw them coming home, she rushed out very happily.

"Fourth brother, sister-in-law, uncle, you are finally back, I miss you so much!"

Yin Ziying rubbed her head and smiled, "I bought eggs for sister Xuan today, and I'll make egg soup for you in a while."

Uncle Gu looked at the excited people and shook his head helplessly. Now that the antelope is in the care of Ziying, let her decide.

He said to Yin Ziying: "Ziying, after lunch, go to your aunt to get the rapeseed. You can go to the uncle's house to get any tools you need."

Yin Ziying nodded and said with a smile: "Okay Uncle, I'll go find my aunt after dinner. I'll tidy up the vegetable field this afternoon, and I can plant vegetables before dark."

After Uncle Gu left, Yin Ziying took Gu Yunxuan to look at the food they bought home. The quantity was not much, but the kitchen was full.

Gu Yunxuan and Gu Yunrui hadn't seen so much food at home for a long time, and when they saw it now, they were a little surprised.

Gu Yunxuan widened her eyes and said, "Sister-in-law, are all the grains in the rice tank ours?"

"Yeah, it's all ours. We don't have to worry about food this month."

Gu Yunrui looked at Yin Ziying and Gu Yunxian and said, "Sister-in-law, second brother, how much did the pheasant cost?"

Seeing his younger brother mentioning this, Gu Yunxian looked at Yin Ziying, then smiled and said, "The pheasant and eggs were sold for a total of 310 seven Wen."

"Wow, so much money!"

Gu Yunrui let out a cry, he had never been to the town, but he studied with Gu Yunyan and Gu Yunxian since he was a child, and raised his family with his brothers when he was older, he knew very well that a pheasant would cost a lot at this price.

Yin Ziying nodded: "Wild eggs are sold for five cents each, so that's enough money in total."

Gu Yunxuan was bouncing around: "Wow! If you are rich, you will be rich."

"Look, I still have 110 coins left in my hand, and our life will get better and better in the future."

Hearing Yin Ziying's words and looking at the money she was holding, the three brothers and sisters of the Gu family froze in disbelief.

Seeing that several people were silent, Yin Ziying smiled and said, "What's the matter? You don't believe my sister-in-law?"

She pointed to the back basket on the ground and said, "There are rapeseeds in the back basket. We can grow vegetables in the yard at night, and we can eat vegetables without going out."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yunxuan threw herself into her arms: "Wow, sister-in-law, you are so kind!"

Yin Ziying couldn't help laughing, and just wanted to comfort Gu Yunxuan, but when she saw the little girl's eyes were red, she couldn't help but soften her heart.

"Be good, let's not cry. It's a good thing. Our family now has food, money, and vegetables. Everything will be fine. When we save some more money, we can pay off the money owed to the uncle's family." Pay it back, buy some more fields, our life will be easier, don't cry."

Yin Ziying didn't pay attention. When she said these words to Gu Yunxuan, the two brothers Gu Yunxian and Gu Yunrui who were standing aside also had red eyes.

How long had it been since they heard comforting words, and hadn't felt how exciting the days to come were.

Now at this moment, with all that their sister-in-law has done for them and this family, they really feel that their good days are coming.
