Chapter 8 Green mountains and green waters are treasures
It was probably the first time for the mall to encounter such a person bargaining, so he didn't react for a while.
After about two or three minutes of silence, when the beep sounded again, Baitao also showed a happy smile on his face.
‘Tip, three spiny mountain turtles, sold in a package, 188,888 mall coins. Do you want to trade? ’
Look, isn’t it done?
Package sale seems feasible, but it depends on the situation.
Baitao closed the lid of the bamboo basket and praised the man fetching water: "Yes, I will accept this turtle."
"Hey, it's fine if my aunt likes it." Bai Shanquan grinned, and he just said, my aunt is still a little baby, and she must like to raise small animals and so on.
The turtle symbolizes longevity, and my aunt is a very lucky person. This turtle is perfect for my aunt to play with.
"Okay, I'll give you a credit." One hundred and eighty-eight thousand, eight hundred and eighty-eight, a big merit must be recorded. As for what to give, she hasn't thought of it yet.
After Baitao finished speaking, Baishanquan and the others were very happy after catching the Spiny Mountain Turtle and bringing them back.
"Thank you, Auntie."
Great, the old blackhead and the others took note of the merit yesterday, which made everyone feel envious. Now it's their turn.
The people on the side looked at it with envy. They all had a head on their shoulders. Why didn't they think of it?
Some people were annoyed for a moment, wondering why they were not so lucky when they went to fetch water yesterday. Otherwise, it would not be the turn of others to be praised by their aunt.
The clever person hurriedly said: "Auntie, auntie, do you still want it? I'll go look for it for you."
Isn't it just a turtle? He didn't believe that there was only one nest within a hundred miles. There must be others.
"Yes, yes, Auntie, we are also going to find mountain turtles for you. Or, is there anything else you want to raise and play with?"
There are a lot of things to find in the mountains, as long as my aunt is interested.
"No need." Baitao shook her head and said, "It's almost time. We'll set off soon. Don't run around blindly."
One litter has already been sold, and if there is no buyer again, it probably won’t fetch much.
What's more, we are still running for our lives right now. It would be best if we meet someone along the way. If we don't, we can't waste the time of running for our lives.
Baitao's words instantly suppressed the thoughts of many villagers who were about to move.
Many people could only look at the few people who had recorded their merits with envy, and secretly decided in their hearts that they must seize the opportunity next time.
At this time, Baitao confirmed in his mind that he was selling the Spiny Mountain Turtle. He felt the bamboo basket in his hand light up. Looking at the extra mall coins in his account, he couldn't suppress the raised corners of his mouth.
Sure enough, green mountains and green waters are treasures!
Yesterday I was still worried about money, and today... well, I have to worry about money today, after all, I support more than 200 people.
But the sudden receipt of a small amount of 200,000 yuan made Baitao feel instantly rich, and he immediately started browsing for high-end ingredients in the mall.
After reading several pages, the corner of my mouth that I couldn't hold back just now suddenly returned to its original position, hmm... I'm still too poor, I have to work hard.
In ancient times, it was not easy for farmers to make money. They could make many things by themselves, so craftsmen such as carpenters, craftsmen, and masons were born.
After a night of busy work by carpenters in the village, Baitao had a brand new sedan chair to sit on.
The seats have changed from the original vines to a neat row of wood, with a secure chair back behind them and armrests on both sides for resting on.
There is also a small shed for shade above the head, and there are footrests underneath.
The shed is woven with hay and tied with some broad-leaf trees. It is strong, simple and practical. It is safer and more comfortable to sit on. After drinking the porridge, everyone simply packed up and went on their way.
Facing the two villagers who were carrying the sedan with happy faces, Baitao thought for a moment and said, "I'll walk first."
Just kidding, I just finished eating, what if I sit on it and it wobbles along the way, causing her to vomit.
She must never do such a shameful thing.
The job of carrying Baitao's sedan chair is a sought-after job and a privilege.
Not only the young and strong men in the village, but also the strong women were eager to try.
The villagers who carried my aunt yesterday were reluctant to give up the job, but Taohua Village values fairness, especially when it comes to my aunt.
As the old saying goes, rain and dew all get wet, so you can get a few people to get close to your aunt.
Bai Tiechui and Bai Dacheng got the short-term lottery early in the morning due to their good luck. They were thinking happily that they must carry it steadily so that the aunt can sit comfortably. It would be best to appoint the two of them to carry the sedan chair in the future. Other villagers are envious of going.
Hearing this, they were immediately stunned. Just when they thought they had done something to make their aunt unhappy, Baitao's next words reassured them.
"I just finished eating. The sun hasn't come out yet. Let's walk for a while." As he said that, Baitao began to shake his arms and legs.
In fact, it was warmer to walk around in such weather, but Baitao was self-aware of herself, so she did not refuse the villagers' thoughtful respect and solemnity.
Relying on their legs, there were more than 200 people, old and young, walking on a mountain road, so one can imagine the speed.
We set out early in the morning as soon as it was dawn. This morning we only walked eleven or twelve miles.
"Let's take a break." Although I just took a break more than half an hour ago, it's already noon.
In ancient times, people were accustomed to eating two meals, morning meal and evening meal.
Of course, rich people will have extra food and refreshments among them, so naturally they won’t be hungry.
Farmers who farm the land will also eat an extra meal when they are busy. After all, they are doing physical work and it is boring if they don’t eat.
As soon as he got off the sedan, Baitao stretched and said, "I'm hungry, let's make something to eat."
Bai Dashan was handing the water bag to Baitao. He was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and quickly responded: "Hey, aunt, you drink some water first, and I will ask someone to make you something to eat."
< br>
I still have the ham sausage from before, just in time to give my aunt a snack.
Seeing Bai Dashan carefully taking out two ham sausages from the box containing ham sausages, Baitao immediately said: "I don't want to eat ham sausages anymore."
"Ah, oh, okay." After Bai Dashan responded, he felt embarrassed.
Just when he called people to prepare some wild vegetables and asked the old blackhead to see if he could find a way to trap a hare and pheasant, or at the worst get some bird eggs or something, Baitao spoke.
"Bring me my treasure box, no, the treasure bamboo basket." As he spoke, Baitao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and his eyes shone with excitement.
It’s time for me to go shopping again. Sure enough, shopping is a happy thing.
Baitao smiled with crooked eyes. She was so excited that she wanted to roll up her sleeves, but she quickly remembered the times when she was blown by the cold wind before, and quickly pulled her sleeves down.
The villagers didn't understand it at first, but after looking at her little hands, everyone understood immediately.
