Make a lot of money!I got rich in the year of famine

Chapter 10 Selling Dendrobium for Money
Shen Hui smiled and reached out to her, "What are you thinking about, don't think about it, go back and cook quickly, I'm going to starve to death after running for a day."

"Sister, aren't you worried?"

Finally, when she approached, Shen Hui grabbed her and led her away, "Is it worth worrying? Besides, you did the right thing. No matter what the result is, at least we still have one year, one year! Quite a few Yes, and... I believe you, your little brain can always come up with weird ideas."

Shen Qing smiled in relief, "Yes, I am not an ordinary person..." I am a person from time travel, so of course I cannot say this.

Shen Hui also nodded with a light smile, "Yes, you are a god descending from the earth, no wonder you look so good-looking!"

"No, my sister is good-looking. When we earn money, I will definitely find a talented and good-looking husband for my sister. Then let Yang Xiuyuan regret it!"

"Why mention him, don't mention it! Go away, this damn day, don't snow."

It didn't snow, and when they got home, it started raining.

The drizzle of light rain was carried by the wind and drifted to the earth, covering everything it touched with mist.

"What a spring rain!" Mr. Huo murmured as he stood at the door of the courtyard with a walking stick, looking at the thin raindrops.

Huo Lin squatted beside him, sullen, "Grandpa, do you think Sister Shen and the others will come back?"

Mr. Huo also hesitated, "This... it's hard to say."

Huo Lin pouted even higher, playing with mud boredly.

He raised his head inadvertently, and saw two slender figures wading across the river in the hazy rain and fog.

"Grandpa, they're back!"

"Sister, Huo Lin is here to pick us up."

"Qing'er! Hui'er!"

At the same time, someone called them from behind.

Cao Yong was wearing a coir raincoat and his trousers were rolled up. He was running towards them with his bare feet in the mud.

It was raining and it was getting dark quickly. There was a charcoal basin lit in the small hall, with a pot hanging on it. In the pot, corn porridge was boiling and bubbling.

Cao Yong refused to wash his feet, so he just took off his coir raincoat and sat on a small stool to warm himself by the fire.

"Have you returned to Xinghua Village?"

"Well, I just came back, brother, what's the matter with you?" Shen Qing didn't want to mention Xinghua Village.

Cao Yong smirked, "Guess!"

Shen Qing rolled his eyes, "Is there something about the Dendrobium matter?"

The cracks at the corners of Cao Yong's mouth became even bigger. He took out a broken money bag from his arms, poured out a few irregular pieces of silver, and handed it to Shen Qing as if offering treasures, "Do you know how much money this is?"

Shen Qing understood immediately and said in surprise: "These are all obtained by selling dendrobium?"

Cao Yong said: "Of course, there are eight, two or six hundred wen in total. I'm not greedy for you. I'm here. My master is very busy these days, so I didn't bother to give it to you."

Shen Hui couldn't believe her eyes, "Dendrobium is so valuable?"

Cao Yong explained: "The drug shop owner said that good dendrobium is hard to come by, because its appearance is very ordinary, and only the medicine collector can recognize it, and the collected dendrobium needs to be processed immediately, otherwise it will lose its medicinal properties. In short, it is very rare to find. , he also said he would charge whatever you make, and at this price.”

Shen Hui was so excited. Maybe they could collect 200 taels of silver soon and get free as soon as possible.

Huo Lin was also happy, "We can still pick a lot from the place we found!"

Shen Qing was calmer than the two of them, "At most two catties of dendrobium can be made from that piece of dendrobium, so if you calculate it like this, you can get more than a dozen taels in total."

The smile on Shen Hui's face faded, "It's still far from 200 taels!"

Cao Yong asked, "What 200 taels?"

Shen Qing explained to him, Cao Yong was filled with anger, "It's too much, my uncle wants to sell his own daughter, Qinger Huier, don't be afraid, and me, I will give you all the money I earned this year .”

Shen Qing shook his head, "You are still an apprentice. How much money can you make? Let's not talk about it for now. Let's divide the money."

"Divide? What points?" Cao Yong was puzzled.

Shen Qingdao: "Big cousin, there are still many places that need you to run errands in the future, so you have to accept the money for running errands."

Cao Yong quickly waved his hands, "Whatever money I want to run errands, you just have to pay me for a full meal." The two cousins ​​were so distressing, and they said that there was still a bet of 200 taels, so he couldn't ask for it.

Shen Qing insisted, and pushed the half string of copper coins to him, "One yard is worth one yard, and my brother has to settle accounts clearly. You are familiar with the way in the town. We don't have anything here. What needs to be bought depends on you." Run, you must take this money, otherwise we won’t dare to order you in the future.”

Cao Yong was actually quite pleasantly surprised, six hundred words!How much furniture he had to make to earn it back, apprentices were not paid.

Shen Hui also said: "Brother, just keep it! From now on, you will feel at ease when we use it, right?"

Having said that, Cao Yong still thinks it makes sense, "It's fine, then let Huo Lin go if you two need anything from now on, I've got the letter, and I'll make sure to arrange it for you."

Shen Qing gave another one tael of silver to Huolin, "Take it too, you have worked hard to quarry dendrobium and make dendrobium. Besides, we live here, thanks to your care."

Huo Lin stood up in fright, "No, I don't want it. I'm just running around after you. I didn't do anything."

Shen Hui picked up the money and handed it to him, "Take it! Your grandpa needs money to see a doctor and get medicine."

Huo Lin hesitated, took the money home at night, was scolded by his grandfather, and returned the money the next day.

He said: "Grandpa said, without you, let alone Dendrobium, we would not be able to eat a full meal, so I can't take this money. At most, if my grandpa gets sick in the future, I will find you again."

Shen Qing didn't have time to talk to him, Cao Yong left before dawn the next day, and she and her sister also braved the rain and fog to pick dendrobium.

Picking is fast, but processing is time-consuming.

I have been busy for a whole day, and it is not finished until it is dark.

The three of them were exhausted, so they cooked some wild vegetable porridge for dinner, which was still made by Uncle Huo.

The old man saw that they were all busy making money, probably because they had eaten better in recent days and had strength, so they were able to go to the kitchen with a cane to light up the fire and cook.

The next day, the rain stopped.

Early in the morning, Huo Lin carried a baggage on his back, Shen Qing stepped on straw sandals, and carried the dry food prepared by Shen Hui in his arms, preparing to go to the town.

Shen Hui was still mumbling: "It's not impossible for Huo Lin to go alone. You have to follow him. He's also dressed up like a man or a woman. It's really not decent. Don't let acquaintances see him."

It turned out that Shen Qing was worried that Huo Lin would go to the town with the dendrobium alone, so he asked his sister to change an old clothes overnight, dress up like a teenager, combed his hair and wrapped it with a piece of blue cloth.

When he came out, there was a young lady with red lips and white teeth.

With a smile on Shen Qing's face, she acted coquettishly with her sister, "I also want to go to the town to see it! Besides, our family's business will grow bigger in the future, and we will go to the town to open a shop, I have to shop!"

Shen Hui chuckled, "Yes! To open a shop, you should find the place first, and we will open it later. You are the shopkeeper, and I will watch the door for you."

"I'll run errands for you!" Huo Lin also followed silly.
