If there is an opportunity to make money, let the three children make money. Better than working in the fields.
"Why does Yunshan collect wild chrysanthemums? Does she have so much money to collect them? Didn't she say that she left the house when the family was separated? Where did her family get the money?" Mu Qinghua asked a lot of questions.
"They said they were collected for food."
"I saw that Sister Yunshan collected almost 200 kilograms from the yard this morning. She didn't say she wouldn't collect anymore. She probably still has money in her hand."
Without money, Zhao Yunshan did not dare to let her parents leave the house. I guess they sold recipes or something. Otherwise, you have a golden finger and are not short of money.
"Yunshan is harvesting wild chrysanthemums in such a high-profile manner, and she is not afraid of Luo Shi and others asking for money." Mu Qinghua felt that it was better to be low-key.
Qingcao smiled calmly, "Maybe Sister Yunshan and her family have a way to deal with the Zhao family. Otherwise, they wouldn't have harvested wild chrysanthemums in such a big way on the second day after the separation."
A time-traveling girl, outsmarting her best relatives. Qingcao has already imagined a big drama.
But compared to Zhao Yunshan, a time-travel girl, she seems to have little potential.
It's been ten years since I traveled back in time, and I haven't accomplished anything famous.
Alas, Father Tiandao doesn’t give me a golden finger or anything like that.
It feels like Zhao Yunshan is a rich daughter, but she is a poor daughter who doesn't have anything she wants.
Mu Qinghua said: "Forget it, never mind it. Let's go up the mountain to pick wild chrysanthemums now. If we go early, we can pick more."
"Okay." Qingcao nodded.
"By the way, I'm going to ask Sister Qinghe if they want to pick it. If we want to pick it, let's go up the mountain together." There are so many people and it's fun, and my brothers and sisters can make more money by picking it together.
"Qing Xing is going. As for Brother Qingwu, I don't know whether Qingli will go."
Mu Qinghua nodded, then went out to call someone. After a while, several children from the eldest uncle's family and the second uncle's family came carrying baskets on their backs.
The adults all had the same idea: there was not much life in the fields, so it was better to let the children earn money.
Ten brothers and sisters went up the mountain to pick wild chrysanthemums. On the way, I met other friends in the village, all brothers and sisters.
Because all the wild chrysanthemums nearby have been picked. Mu Qinghe, the eldest, made the decision and they walked into the mountains. Anyway, there are many of them and they are not afraid of wild animals.
After walking for almost an hour, they discovered scattered wild chrysanthemums.
Mu Qingshan said: "Why don't we spread out and look for them? If we act together as a group, I'm afraid we won't find much."
Everyone thought it was right and agreed to look for them separately. The three of them were divided into three teams as a family unit. Then each picked a direction to go.
As for which direction there are wild chrysanthemums, it all depends on luck.
Qingcao and the other three walked for about half an hour before they discovered a patch of scattered wild chrysanthemums.
"Qinghua, you take the grass and pick the wild chrysanthemums here. I will continue walking forward. If you encounter danger, remember to shout loudly."
"Okay brother, be careful yourself. There are a lot of snakes, insects, rats, and ants on the mountain, so don't get bitten."
"I know." After Mu Qingli answered, he took the hatchet and continued walking into the mountain.
Green grass and green flowers picked wild chrysanthemums while chatting. In a short while, I finished picking the wild chrysanthemums.
"Let's go to the front to find brother." Mu Qinghua led Qingcao towards Mu Qingli's direction.
After walking for more than ten minutes, no one from Mu Qingli was seen.
Mu Qinghua said worriedly: "Is something going to happen to me? Why haven't I seen anyone after walking for so long?"
Qingcao said very calmly: "Nothing will happen. There are no large beasts in this Damu Mountain. Maybe he walked far away."
My brother is still very clever. If he encounters danger, he will definitely run faster than a rabbit.
"Then let's keep looking forward." After Mu Qinghua finished speaking, she took Qingcao and continued walking forward, shouting as she walked.
After a while, I finally heard Mu Qingli's response. The two of them followed the direction of the sound.
Then he saw Mu Qingli squatting under a big tree, digging something with a hatchet.
When Qingcao and the others got closer, they could see clearly what Mu Qingli had dug.
"Oh my god, it's ginseng!" Mu Qinghua covered her mouth and exclaimed.
The children in their village all know ginseng, because the old man Mu in the village has taught the people in the village to identify many herbs, and ginseng is one of them.
Mr. Mu's original name was Mu Hedong. He worked as an apprentice in a medical clinic when he was a child. Later, due to war and famine, he and his family began to flee for their lives. Along the way, he saved many people by relying on the herbs he knew.
After he settled down, he felt that he should let everyone know about some herbal medicines. To prevent another war and famine.
It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish!
Therefore, when the children in the village reach the age of six, they have to study with Mr. Mu for one year. How much you can learn in one year depends on your individual abilities.
Qingcao and the others were lucky enough to learn from him. In the past two years, Mr. Mu has grown old. Therefore, the matter of teaching the identification of herbal medicines has been handed over to Mrs. Mu’s son.
"Brother, you are so lucky. You actually discovered wild ginseng." Mu Qinghua said excitedly: "I don't know how much money it can be sold for."
Mu Qingli carefully dug out the ginseng whiskers and replied with a smile: "A few dozen taels is no problem."
"Ten taels!!!" Mu Qinghua's eyes shone, "Our family has become rich!"
With the money, their family can buy two more rooms. Then she will have her own room!
The more Mu Qinghe thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and he couldn't hold back the smile on his face.
Qingcao didn't know why she was happy seeing her sister acting silly. Although I have money, the weather is not good this year. Most of this money will be kept to pay taxes and plans for the future.
Qingcao shook his head, forget it. It's better to let his sister be happy, and don't bother to expose her beautiful fantasy.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Mu Qingli finally dug out the ginseng completely. "We won't pick the wild chrysanthemums anymore. We will go down the mountain early. I will sell the ginseng to the county while it is fresh."
The prices at the medical clinic in the town were not high, so Mu Qingli planned to rush to the county while it was still early.
"Okay." Mu Qinghua didn't want to pick the wild chrysanthemums, so she might as well go home early.
"Brothers and sisters, please go back first. I will go find Sister Qinghe and the others and pick wild chrysanthemums with them."
Qingcao felt that there was nothing wrong with going home, and the money from the ginseng sold by her brother must be given to her parents. She might as well pick more wild chrysanthemums and sell them, at least she would keep the money.
Mu Qingli nodded, "Okay, then I will send you to find Sister Qinghe and the others first, and then go down the mountain."
Mu Qingli sent Qingcao to Qinghe and the others, and then went down the mountain with Mu Qinghua.
Of course, Mu Qingli did not hide it from Mu Qinghe and the others and told them that he had dug ginseng.
Mu Qinghe and the others lamented their good luck, and other than envy in their hearts, they didn't feel any jealousy.
It wasn't until sunset that the green grass returned home.
"The grass is back and the rice is in the pot."
"Okay mom." Qingcao put down the backpack and went to the woodshed to eat. After dinner, the family sat in the main room waiting for Mu Qingli to come back.
When Mu Qingli returned home, it was already after nine o'clock in the evening.
"Mom and Dad, I'm back." Mu Qingli smiled and took out the silver from his arms, "This ginseng was sold for one hundred and thirty taels."
Li said with a look of disbelief: "I actually sold it for so much money."
"I was lucky. Rendetang was in urgent need of it, so I sold it at a high price." Mu Qingli originally thought that selling it for eighty or ninety taels would be good, but he didn't expect that he sold it for more than a hundred taels, which was a real profit.
