Section 15 Cabbage, Shepherd's Purse, and Pickled Vegetables

When her brother was chopping bamboo, Yuyue finally found a thick bamboo that could be used to make many things! This bamboo is the thickest part! It’s half a foot in diameter, it’s almost a tree! Cut it in half

, is it enough to make a chicken food box? If you chop off both ends, you can also make a water ladle? Yuyue is still thinking that her aunt and brother can cut off a section by themselves, make a kettle, and also make a copper plate to save money.

Jar! I’m so satisfied with this bamboo! The more Yu Yue looks at it, the more satisfied she becomes!

Dragging these bamboos back to the yard! It took a lot of effort, but I was very lucky. On the way, I met Fan Qianjin, the eldest son of the third uncle's family. He wanted to call him Uncle Jin. He was good at weaving bamboo.

, seeing the three of them pulling so many bamboos, they knew they wanted to make something for the house! They turned around and moved them back to the yard.

"Brother Yan, this bamboo needs to be dried in the sun before you can make it. However, you can make these things with this thick bamboo now!"

Uncle Jin took the bamboo saw he brought with him in a few seconds, cut it down, and made three chicken food boxes one meter long each! He made a bamboo stand and placed it firmly in the chicken shed. One box was filled with water.

, the two packed food, and also set up two thin bamboos in the chicken shed for the chickens to rest at night!

Uncle Jin said he would take it back to his home to make the rest! The bamboo still needs to be processed!

Then he dragged a few bamboo trees he cut himself and went home!

Taking advantage of the dawn, the three of them were busy cutting pigweed again! At this time, it became clear that the tools were not enough. Yuyue could only dig with her own small hoe. Anyway, the two of them could cut enough for the pigs, so Yuyue directly

Just dig some wild vegetables from the ground! While talking to the brother next to you, you want a small sickle for yourself!

Brother Yan was the head of the family for the first time, and he didn't think it through well. He surrendered immediately after her nagging.

"Tomorrow, at the gate of the courtyard, you see someone from the village going to the town. Just go with him and choose the one you are good at!"

"It's okay, brother. I will dig some wild vegetables today and early tomorrow morning and send them to the town to exchange for money. I will earn it myself. I only have fifty coins at home, so I can't spend it randomly!"

I love hearing these words! I nod my head as if pecking at rice!

Yuyue did what she said, and she dug a lot of shepherd's purse! The next day, at noon, she had a full basket! After explaining it to her aunt who was busy at home, she carried the vegetables and delivered them to her.

We’re in town! I was just making up my mind, should I go to a restaurant and sell out? When I was debating, I heard someone shouting!

"Hey, little girl! Come here!" When passing by the largest restaurant in the town, the fat shopkeeper actually recognized her!

"Uncle shopkeeper!" He put down the basket on his back! Alas, luck is good, the privilege of a time traveler! The halo of the protagonist!

"Do you still have cabbage?" The fat shopkeeper smiled!

This is a good question! In the past few days, I have harvested cabbage morning and night, and planted some various vegetables. The quantity is overwhelming! Yuyue was muttering in her stomach! But she had a pleasant smile on her face.

replied:

"Yes!" Is it possible that the cabbage tastes so good that you came here in a hurry?

"Why don't you just carry it and sell it?"

"My aunt has something to do and doesn't have time. I have little strength. My aunt said, it's better to start the kiln! Anyway, there isn't much left!" We can't be in a hurry, this is not the season for fresh vegetables!

"Little girl, I'll pay you six cents a pound to buy it for you. You go find a car and bring it over, and I'll pay for the fare! At this time, the people in my store are on the verge of eating and can't leave!"

"Okay, I'll sell this shepherd's purse and go get it!" After earning two cents, Yuyue immediately surrendered! Sell it!

"What else are you selling? Uncle, I'm all in support of it. I think these shepherd's purses are pretty good. How about I give you six cents a pound?"

What’s not good? They only sell four coins in this market! You have to wait for a long time to buy it, and besides, you can’t weigh it yourself! Yu Yue narrowed her eyes with a smile!

"Thank you, uncle shopkeeper. Then I will go to the village to collect goods! Leave the basket with you!"

Walking to the town, Yu Yue made an appointment for a bullock cart. The man pulling the cart looked honest!

"Uncle, you will arrive outside the town in half an hour, on the main road heading towards Fanjia Village. I will wait for you on the roadside. There are many vegetables from my field that I want to bring into the city to sell, so I will pile them up.

Waiting for you at the roadside!"

"Okay, little girl, I'll pull the cart over after I unload the goods!"

"Uncle, I'll wait for you on the way to my field!"

An honest man is easy to kill, so Yu Yue excuses herself to go to the roadside to wait for him, and walks out of the town first. Halfway along the road, there are many vegetable fields on the side, and there are no people coming and going. Yu Yue naturally avoids him and takes care of him.

All the cabbage on the edge of the space field ridge was taken out and piled on the roadside, and the freshly grown vegetables—onions, common leeks, spring onions, and garlic sprouts were also taken out!

The promised bullock cart arrived on time, and the honest-looking uncle was a little curious!

"Little girl, where are the adults in your house?"

"There is a lot of work in the fields, so I have to go back and do some work. Please ask uncle to help pack the vegetables! Okay?"

"What's wrong with this? It's just a matter of extending your hand!"

The uncle is a hard-working man, so he loaded the dishes into the car in a few seconds. Yuyue took him to the restaurant. After unloading the goods, Xiao Fuzi paid five cents for the fare to the uncle driving the cattle cart.

Then he left, it was important to work!

The vegetables delivered this time actually include three hundred kilograms of cabbage, ten kilograms each of onions, leeks, shallots, and garlic sprouts! These are considered fresh vegetables! The fat shopkeeper’s calculation is fifteen cents per kilogram, and now it’s prosperous, cabbage

I earned 1,800 Wen, plus 600 Wen for the green onions, a total of 2,400 Wen. The shepherd's purse was only ten kilograms, so I earned 60 Wen!

"Uncle shopkeeper, thank you, I'm leaving!" Yu Yue's back was filled with almost half a basket of copper coins, which was really heavy!

"Little girl, my surname is Zeng, which family are you from?"

"My name is Fan Yuyue. Uncle Zeng can just call me Xiaoyue! I live in Fanjia Village at the head of the village!"

"Little Yue, do you still have this dish?"

"No, the ones are still in the ground and haven't grown yet. I dug the shepherd's purse myself, but there are some!"

"Okay, little girl Yue, if the vegetables in the fields at home are ready for the market, just bring them to my store. But these wild vegetables, whether they are shepherd's purse, gray vegetables, etc., just go and dig up the tender ones.

Come, collect enough for a backpack, and I’ll charge you this price! How about that?”

"In this way, Uncle Zeng can be regarded as a great benefactor to my family. Our home is on the edge of a mountain and there are plenty of wild vegetables. I will dig up the good ones and bring them to you!"

"Okay, the money is packed, but don't drop it. Take this braised chicken with you and give it to your aunt. Let's just say it was given by Uncle Zeng from the "Yipinxian" restaurant! Let her remember that the food is only sent to me in the future.

Come to the store!”

Boss Zeng took out a chicken that he had not bought during the lunch market. This dish tasted so good that it was necessary to win over the family!

"Hey, thank you, Uncle Zeng!" Yu Yue happily carried the basket on her back and left! At last she knew what these three traditional Chinese characters were! Moreover, this was considered a big customer for the family! As long as people work hard,

Don’t worry about having a bad life! Yuyue is very down-to-earth! She will save the money from selling her own space vegetables and use it later when there is a chance! This is not stingy, but a necessary safety measure!

After finding a blacksmith who sells ironware, Yu Yue carefully selected a small sickle, especially this one with a smooth handle! This size is useful for cutting grass and digging wild vegetables, it's a bit like a toy!

I bought another big pair of scissors! I prepared them for pruning honeysuckle! I chose a medium-sized hoe, a small hoe, and an iron watering can! For use in the space, Yuyue spent a lot of time on her own.

Baiwen, carrying a basket on his back, went home with a smile!

Halfway through the road, I put the hoe, hoe, scissors, and watering can into the space and put them away. Naturally, I had no place to put my copper coins, so I just put them on the edge of the field! Temporarily put them in the watering can.

I only left the shepherd's purse's sixty cents outside, and deducted the ten cents from the small sickle! Always leave no tail in everything!

Taking the 50 cents, I bought an oil lamp in the grocery store! It was made of coarse porcelain. The shopkeeper asked for 1 cent. A pound of lamp oil and a handful of rushes cost only 10 cents in total! I saved another cent.

, it is really inconvenient that there is no light in this room!

I walked to the roadside and bought my favorite small gourd and gourd for 2 Wen. I also bought a bundle of bamboo fences that could be twenty meters long. Wen, I carried it on my back, it was such a big bundle!

When he turned the corner, he saw that the bamboo craftsman could no longer see him, so he ducked into the space. Alone in the space, he set up the bamboo fence on the honeysuckle field! The small gourd and water ladle were also placed by the spring.

! Came out again, and took out a piece of cabbage that he had specially left, ready to test the taste to see if it tasted good. This is why Boss Zeng had to pay more for the goods! As the old saying goes, what is sold is not bought.

Fine, but I really didn’t understand my own goods. I thought everything was in order, so I walked honestly! I went home!

When I returned home and paid my money, I bought a bunch of things and forty coins, which caused a huge response! Brother Yan decided to dig wild vegetables with his sister! My aunt specializes in hunting pigweed and the like!

On the third day, after breakfast, Uncle Jin brought the prepared things over!

The water ladle Yuyue wanted could be made from bamboo, but Uncle Jin's family still had a big gourd lying around, so naturally it was changed to two water ladles, and here they are. Making water ladles from gourds is more professional after all!

As expected, three kettles were made. The craftsmanship is very exquisite! There is also a hanging rope! The money box that Yuyue wanted was put on the top and made into a one-foot-long one. The lid can also be opened to get money.

!At that time, Uncle Jin also took away the thickest root section of the bamboo. It was originally intended to be a water ladle, but now it was dug out, polished, and turned into a small round box with a lid!

It's not too small, about half a foot in diameter!

Yuyue was very happy: "Uncle Jin, you are so skillful, thank you!"
