Chapter 27 Asking for Help
Mei Erya had never seen so much money before, and she was surprised when she saw the copper coin handed over by her sister, so she took it with trembling hands.

Unbelievably authentic: "Sanya, are we really making money?"

"What do you think?" Melomei found it funny, thought for a while, and said, "Elder sister and second sister, we will definitely go out of Shuanghe Town, go to the county, the state, and maybe the capital as well, so we will make more money in the future. Feel like we need an official name."

"Look at the uncle's cousin, the third uncle's cousin, and the third uncle's cousin, they all have official names, but our three sisters, what are they called Daya, Erya, and Sanya? Give yourself a nice name?"

It's okay to be called Sanya by family members. If I meet a male god in the future and know that I am called Sanya, I won't be laughed out of my teeth.

Think about that picture, how beautiful it is!
"Okay, I've wanted to pick a name for a long time, but I don't know what to call it."

Mei Erya's eyes lit up, Jingcheng couldn't imagine it, but it was still possible to change her name.

Erya or something, go to hell!
"I want to be called Melo May."

Erya thought for a while: "Sanya's name is Mei, then I'll be called Xing, big sister, do you want to be called Tao?"

"I can do it, it sounds better than the current one."

Mei Daya thought for a while, then nodded.

After saying that, Melomei took out the chicken legs given by Aunt Wang from her sleeves, and the sisters tore some meat by themselves, and took out a bag of pastries to share before getting ready to work.

Mei Luomei and Mei Daya, oh no, now it is Mei Luotao who continue to manage the mushrooms, and Mei Luoxing is going to pay off the credit, and make an appointment for tomorrow's amount, and then come back.

"Sanya, no, it's the third sister."

"Sanmei, should we go to other villages now and tell them that we collect mushrooms?"

"We can go to other villages to see it, but we'd better find someone to collect it, otherwise the three of us will be too busy."

She didn't want to run and break her legs in a day and still not earn a little money.

"Do you have someone you can trust? If there is one, we can go to him and pay him to collect it. When the time comes, we can pay the wages a day, or performance."

Me Luotao didn't understand what performance was, but they could understand what Sanmei meant that they paid for others to collect it, and they just stayed behind and watched, waiting for others to collect it and send it over.

"That's a good idea, third sister, you are so smart!"

Melo Xing slapped her hands, her eyes sparkling.

"Third sister, I..." Mei Luotao hesitated, and finally closed her mouth.

"Eldest sister, if you have anything to say, just say it, it's annoying to be hesitant to talk like this."

"I do know someone, but he... people in their village don't like him anyway, and think he is a disaster."

Disaster?

Melomei has been here for several years, let alone never heard of such a person.

"Who is it?" Melomei asked.

Merlotao, "Sheep Stone in Shanghe Village."

Shanghe Village is on the right side of Shuanghe Village, and there is a big mountain between the two villages.

"His mother died when he was born, and his father left after a few years. Later, he lived with his grandmother, who died of illness, and then lived with his uncle and aunt. People in the village said that he was against his relatives, and his uncle and aunt didn't like it either. He was kicked out later."

"The village gave him a piece of land, and he built a shack to live there alone."

"Sister, how old is he? How do you know him?"

Melomei was curious, didn't this eldest sister work at home every day, how could she still have time to go to the next village, and knew a rock.

"It should be Eleven this year." Melotao didn't think too much, and continued: "It was raining heavily once, and I went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and fell into the hunter's trap. He saved me!"

"Oh! That's the savior."

Melomei stroked her chin and thought for a while, "Sister, have you never thought that he actually dug that trap?"

Merlot peach "..."

The three finally went to the next village and found Yang Shitou's shack, but found that there was no one there.

"It seems that today is not a coincidence, let's go."

In fact, she also wanted to see if this 'catastrophe' had three heads and six arms, otherwise how could there be someone more unlucky and miserable than her.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

The three of them were about to leave when a voice suddenly sounded next to them. When they turned around, they saw a boy dressed like a savage looking at them warily.

Holding a pile of wild vegetables in his hand, it seems that he just came back from picking wild vegetables.

"Oh, we want to ask you to do me a favor." Melome smiled and said, "It's not for nothing, it's for wages."

"You guys better go, lest I, the disaster star, overwhelm you."

The little boy was not moved by Melomei's words, but became more vigilant.

Since grandma left, no one in this world who saw him spoke ill of him.

Help, who needs the help of a disaster star?

"Shitou, I'm Big Sister, have you forgotten? You saved me last year!"

Seeing that things were at an impasse, Mei Luotao thought for a while, and stepped forward bravely, "We want to collect some mushrooms to make a difference in price, but we don't dare to reveal it. You know my grandma, um, it's very powerful. If you know I'm afraid it will kill us. So we need your help."

"That's right, look at my face, it's scary, it's because of my milk, so brother Shitou, please help me!"

Melome now has one brother at a time, no pressure, and after a few years, sometimes she gradually gets used to being a baby!
Adult thinking, speaking childish words.

It's embarrassing!
Yang Shitou on the opposite side sized up a few people, and then said: "Let's go ahead and talk about it."

Opening the hut, the three of them went in behind him, and found that there was only one bed in the hut, a large wooden pier as a table, a small wooden pier as a stool, and a cutting board made of wooden piles next to it, on which was placed a gnat. A mouthful bowl, a small pot and a pair of chopsticks.

There are a few straws on the bed, not even a broken quilt, and I don't know how to spend the winter.

Melomei frowned. This level of simplicity is worse than her thatched house!
After observing the boy carefully, although others treated him so unfairly, seeing someone falling into a trap and being able to rescue him shows that he is not a bad person himself.

"Brother Shitou, it's like this. We would like to ask you to help harvest mushrooms in your village. We can give you [-] Wen a day as wages, or a reserve price. Then it will be counted as performance."

Seeing that the other side didn't understand, Melomei continued to add, "That is, we buy your mushrooms for four Wen a catty, but you can collect them for three Wen a catty, or two Wen a catty, depending on your ability. , so that you can earn the difference in the middle price, if you do well and can work for a full month, then I will give you an extra five hundred Wen. Do you think you want wages or the difference?"

"I'll think about it first."

Yang Shitou never dreamed that one day he would have such good luck, that someone would come to him for help, and the wages were so high.

You have to know that an adult who goes to work outside may only spend four to five hundred a month. Now that he collects mushrooms at home, there is so much money. He feels that he can wake up laughing from a dream tonight.
