"Master, are you back? Go sit down and have a rest!"
In Liujiazhuang, a man walked into a dilapidated courtyard. A peasant woman in the house quickly came out to greet him. While helping to take the pole that the man placed on the ground, she quietly observed the latter's face. She saw the beaming look on the man's face. I couldn't help but ask:
"Master, the two baskets of vegetables picked last night are all sold out!"
The man nodded, with excitement in his voice, and said excitedly: "Haha! They're all sold out! Damn it, kill the old hen at noon to replenish Huzi's body, and I'll prepare some bundles in two days. , go to the village head to find Mr. Sun and see if you can let Huzi go to the village school this year!"
It turned out that this man was Liu Mang from Liujiazhuang. Li Zexuan had previously given "interest-free loans" to villagers to build greenhouses, and he also went there.
For more than a month, their family has carefully taken care of the two greenhouses behind the house, fearing that insects would grow in the vegetable field or the vegetable seedlings would freeze to death, because those two greenhouses were their family's hope. If they can grow vegetables, it's okay, but if they don't, they will be in debt, and their son will probably have no hope of going to school for the rest of his life!
"Master, it costs a lot of money for Huzi to go to school! Do we have enough money?"
The woman heard this and said worriedly.
Speaking of this, Liu Mang couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hey! Of course it's enough! If it's not enough, there's still extra! Damn it, you don't know how valuable these vegetables are! Especially cucumbers and spinach, they can be sold casually One kilogram more can earn back the cost of two greenhouses! The money earned from this trip today is enough to feed our family for several years~!"
Spinach and cucumber were not introduced to the Central Plains for a long time. For a long time before, they were even vegetables exclusive to the nobility. Naturally, their preciousness was not comparable to that of native vegetables such as water spinach and shepherd's purse.
Therefore, among the vegetables grown by farmers, the most expensive ones are cucumbers and spinach! They generally sell a pound of cucumbers for more than 600 Wen, and a pound of spinach for about 500 to 600 Wen. Liu Mang said that a pound of these two vegetables can be worth the cost of two greenhouses, and Not talking big words.
"Master, how much did it cost in total?"
After hearing this, Liu Mang's daughter-in-law's face was filled with excitement. She said that their family had been unable to survive before, but she didn't expect the hope of life to come so quickly!
"I don't know how many there are in total. I haven't even had time to count them. They're all in this basket! Even though the top is covered with grass, the bottom is full of copper coins. Weighing the weight, it should be about a hundred kilograms. That's all. Not only that! There was a man who didn’t bring so many copper coins, so he gave me two golden beans. Look! They are definitely real gold! Our family really got rich this time!"
Liu Mang pointed to the bamboo basket and carefully took out two soybean-sized pieces of gold from his arms, which shone in the sunlight.
Although gold was not a currency in circulation in the Tang Dynasty, copper coins were often difficult to meet demand in large transactions, so occasionally some people used gold leaves or gold beans as currency. Under normal circumstances, those who receive gold can take it to the nearest pawn shop to exchange it for copper coins. The two golden beans in Liu Mang's hand should be able to be exchanged for nearly 20 coins!
The woman looked at the golden beans in Liu Mang's hand with fascination and couldn't help but said: "Master, can you let me see it?"
Liu Mang smiled and handed over the golden beans without refusing.
The woman took it, put it in her hand and examined it for a while, then bit it gently with her teeth. After seeing some slight marks on it, she said happily: "Master, it's really gold! It's really gold!"
Liu Mang grinned and said with disdain: "Hey! You melon lady, these golden beans were given by Master Cao, how can they be fake? Go cook!"
This guy may have forgotten that when he received the golden beans, he secretly bit them with his teeth and secretly rejoiced for a long time!

"Young Master, I, Old Hu, asked each villager one by one at noon. All the vegetables picked by the farmers in Chang'an City were sold! Every household made at least ten dollars during this trip, everyone. We are all planning to repay the money we borrowed from the young master years ago as soon as possible!"
In the afternoon, Hu Hanyun came to Yunshan and "reported work" to Li Zexuan. Han Lizheng left, and the eight villages in ten miles under Li Zexuan's previous management were under the control of Lao Hu.
Li Zexuan originally came to the academy in the afternoon to preside over the review of the students' study plans for the next semester. When he heard that Lao Hu was coming, he had to take some time to come and meet Lao Hu.
"Uncle Hu, don't worry about the money now. You can pay it back whenever you want. Then you can help me collect it first! Now we need to pay attention to the safety of each vegetable field. After all, there is such a fuss today. Big news, we can’t hide the news that our village can grow vegetables in winter even if we want to. People from other villages will inevitably covet it, so each village will arrange some people to keep vigil every night to strictly prevent others from entering. Stealing food from the village!”
Stealing Vegetables is an online game developed by an online company in a previous life that simulates farm operations in real life. In the game, people can run their own farms just like in real life, planting vegetables, fertilizing, harvesting, etc. Of course, this game is the biggest The happiness of the game is to steal food. For a time, "stealing food" became a trend, making this game quickly popular on the Internet.
However, what Li Zexuan is talking about stealing vegetables now is definitely not stealing vegetables on the Internet, nor is he making a fuss about it, but the price of vegetables has skyrocketed. As the saying goes, the benefits are touching people's hearts. The vegetables we grow are so valuable, there’s no guarantee that some scoundrels won’t come over to steal them!
Lao Hu Niu's eyes widened and he said excitedly: "Young master, don't worry! I'm going to inform the bosses of each village right away. If anyone really dares to steal food, he will never come back!"
Li Zexuan twitched his eyebrows and said hurriedly: "Uncle Hu, be careful and don't kill anyone!"
In this era where people rely on the sky for food, some people steal, probably because of their livelihood, and the crime is not serious enough to commit suicide. Besides, if someone is really going to be beaten to death, it will be a troublesome matter for the government to hold them accountable!
Lao Hu chuckled and said, "Master, Lao Hu knows what's appropriate!"
After that, Hu Hanyun said goodbye and left.
Li Zexuan was about to go out, but Li Gang and the others were still waiting for him to have a meeting. If he didn't go there, the old man would probably become impatient.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, he heard footsteps outside the door, and then Li Er's angry voice came: "Haha! You kid is trapped in Yunshan, and you can still control the overall situation. Not bad, not bad!"
