Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

Chapter 138 Chapter 138
It hurt too much to directly use the hands, so Li Changhui specially made two bamboo slices three fingers wide, inserted the bamboo slices into the sweet potato ridge with one hand, and picked up a sweet potato vine with the other hand.

Gently press the bamboo slices to create a slit, put the sweet potato vines in, remove the bamboo slices, and it will be fine.

It's easy, fast, and efficient, so it's no wonder I didn't find anyone to do it this time.

In less than an hour, the two of them planted more than an acre, and in the rest of the time they carried water to irrigate. After the watering was over, it was still early before dark.

Go to the uncle's house and bring Li An back. The two brothers, Li Yu and Li Hao, also came back with two bamboo baskets.

"Father and mother, look, there are so many cicada monkeys, so many!"

The two brothers showed off to Li Changhui and Lin He excitedly, but as soon as the bamboo basket was stretched out in front of them, Lin He hurriedly took a few steps back.

"God, why are there so many!"

The two bamboo baskets were filled almost to the brim, and they were densely packed with wriggling, cicadas that hadn't yet turned into adults, which made her scalp tingle.

Li Changhui looked at her: "Afraid?"

Lin He waved his hand: "Would that be enough, it's just densely packed and disgusting to look at."

Li Changhui put down the basket, and went to the kitchen to get a small bowl: "There are too many, I can't finish it, keep a dozen or so, and I'll sell the rest in the town."

After finishing speaking, the two brothers looked at the child excitedly: "I bought the money, and you brothers will share it equally."

The family is not short of money now, and there is no need to take the fruits of the child's labor as their own.

The brothers were instantly excited: "Thank you dad!"

Lin He hurriedly said: "I don't want to eat this, you can see how much you want to eat, I can make it for you."

Fried, just like fried peanuts, simple.

She is not so bold when it comes to eating.

Li Changhui put the bowl in front of the two brothers: "One person has five, and An'er has two. Don't eat too much. If you eat too much, you will get nosebleeds."

Their family has been eating better recently. They can't eat too much of this nourishing food.

And if there are no accidents, the brothers will definitely catch them tomorrow, and they will eat them tomorrow.

Lin He hugged Li An and stood two steps away. Watching them counting out one by one, he couldn't help asking, "Where did you catch them? Why are there so many?"

"In our own field, there are a lot of them. It has been in our own field this afternoon. There are some small holes, and there are cicada monkeys inside."

"Yes, Shitou said that he caught on the mountain in the morning, but he didn't catch as many in our field."

Lin He was slightly surprised: "It's so easy."

But after thinking about it, her family's crops were all warmed by her spiritual power. Before these cicadas grew into adults, they hid in the ground and sucked the nutrients from the roots of the plants.

It is estimated that this is the reason why it grows so much and so well.

But if this is the case, I wonder if the taste of these cicada monkeys will be better than before.

It's a pity that she didn't dare to try this thing, and she hadn't eaten it before, so she naturally didn't have the chance to know if it tasted better.

By the time the brothers had counted the monkeys, Li Changhui had already washed his hands, changed into clean clothes and came out.

"I saw some for sale in the town two days ago, and they were not cheap. Three of them cost a penny. With so many, I'm afraid they can be sold for a lot of money."

"So expensive."

Although it may not sound like much, but this cicada monkey is small, four or five are only as big as an egg, and this crowded basket does not take up much space.

"It's not cheap."

Li Changhui helped transfer all the cicada monkeys into a big bamboo basket, and weighed them: "It's estimated to be five or six catties, about five or six hundred."

Li Yu hurriedly asked: "How much will it cost?"

"Three for a penny, count as five hundred. I taught you what to do, and you can figure it out yourself."

Then he looked at Lin He: "I'm going from the back mountain, hurry up, and I'll be back in half an hour."

After Lin He nodded, he turned around and left. As soon as he got to the back of the house, Li Yu shouted, "Father, is it more than 160 words!"

It's a pity that when his voice fell, Li Changhui had already turned around and was out of their sight.

He quickly asked his mother again: "Mom, am I right? Is it more than 160?"

Although father taught him, his younger brother and mother at the same time, mother is super good and learns faster than them every time.

Both of Li Yu's eyes are shining. If it is really so much money, if it is really divided among him and his younger brother equally, wouldn't each person have more than 80 Wen?

Lin He nodded: "Yes, you are really good, you can make so much money at once."

However, in the next second, Li Yu looked annoyed: "We have caught a lot of cicada monkeys before. Sometimes in a whole day, we caught more than today."

Lin He was taken aback: "You said when you lived with your grandparents?"

Li Hao pouted: "That's right, grandparents only let us eat one or two, and sold the rest, and they won't give us any money."

It turned out that they also helped their grandparents earn so much money, they didn't even know it.

Lin He rubbed the tops of the brothers' heads next to each other: "Thinking about what to do is a thing of the past. Why don't you think about what you want to buy when you have money."

"Xiaohe, what is more than 100 words? Changhui went hunting again?"

Aunt Zhang's daughter-in-law next door came back just now, just in time to hear Li Yu shouting more than 100 words, and saw Li Changhui going up the mountain, so she couldn't help being curious.

Li Changhui hasn't been hunting recently, and many people in the village are worried about it.

"Sister-in-law Zhang is back." Lin He smiled and said, "It's not hunting, but the two children caught a lot of cicada monkeys today, Brother Hui is selling them in the town."

The two of them are close to each other. Although Aunt Zhang sometimes loves to talk and is a little calculating, she is generally not bad.

And the stone that Li Yu and Li Hao mentioned several times was the son of Aunt Zhang and the grandson of Aunt Zhang.

Mrs. Zhang was also delighted when Lin He said that she knew the monkey: "Really, my Shitou went with him today, and I haven't seen it yet."

"It should be quite a lot. Before it's dark, take it to the town and sell it earlier. The sooner the price will be higher, and when the town knows that there are more cicada monkeys, it won't be worth much."

Lin He is not talking nonsense, no matter what good things are, the price will be reduced if there are too many.

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, I will go to the field and tell my man. He said before that he will sell it in the morning. It seems that we should go now."

After finishing speaking, he hurried back home and called Shitou to take out the cicada monkeys caught in the afternoon. Sure enough, there were quite a few. In addition, the ones caught in the morning were more than those caught by Li Yu and Li Hao combined.

Afterwards Shitou was ordered by his mother to go to the field to tell his father to come back quickly. This money-making business cannot be sloppy.

Lin He chatted with Mrs. Zhang for a few more words, and then went to feed the pigs, chickens, and rabbits, and then prepared the dinner for the evening. When Li Changhui came back, he could start the meal by cooking some dishes.
