Chapter 26 Too ugly
When the villagers who were picking up stones in the cave saw Baitao coming in, they all called out respectfully: "Auntie."
Baitao nodded, looking at the pile of rocks on the ground and smiling happily.
The mall's prompts also sounded one after another.
‘Beep, the second-level white floating ore was scanned, the grade is medium, and the price is 200,000 mall coins per kilogram. ’
‘Beep, the first-grade white floating ore was scanned. It is of high grade and is priced at 600,000 yuan each. ’
‘Beep, we scanned the third-grade white floating ore, which is of lower grade and sells for 80,000 kilograms. ’
‘Beep, the second-level white floating ore was scanned, the level is medium...’
'Beep, scan to...'
‘Beep, the first-grade white floating ore was scanned. It is of high grade and sells for 600,000 yuan each. ’
Such noisy sounds sounded one after another, but it sounded so pleasant to Baitao at the moment, as if they were repeatedly broadcasting: The balance has arrived at one million yuan... ten million yuan.
"Strange, I didn't expect there to be such a hole in the cave."
Bai Dashan put the kerosene lamp aside and muttered with surprise: "If it hadn't been shaken a few times in the middle of the night, I really wouldn't have noticed it."
Baitao looked around at the mountain wall of the cave and was even more happy, wow~
She couldn't help but hum with joy.
"Today is a good day. Everything you want can come true... It's getting better and better, come, come, come, get better and better, la la la..."
Yesterday's rain was not in vain.
Which villagers were the ones who discovered the cave with firecrackers?
They must be rewarded.
Xueyu's cute little baby girl had a crooked smile and hummed a very festive song that they had never heard before, making people feel inexplicably happy.
Bai Dashan and others secretly thought to themselves, have the fairies in the sky touched this before? !
It seemed that my aunt really liked these stones, so the few of them worked harder to pick up the stones.
Little did they know that in Baitao's view, these stones were similar to gold nuggets.
High-quality white floating ore is even more expensive than gold nuggets, and is almost the same as picking up money for free. If it were you, wouldn't you like it?
Seeing that the stones were almost collected, Baitao pointed to the stones on the mountain wall and ordered: "There are also stones on the mountain wall. Dig out all the stones you can see for me."
The pile on the ground is not all white peach ore, but there are some on the mountain wall. This is all money, how can white peach be let go.
Must dig them all!
"Hey."
"Okay, grandma, we will dig it out for you right now."
"Auntie, please stand back a little bit, so you don't get pebbles splashing against you."
Baitao waved her little hand and motioned for them to start, while she squatted in front of the pile of stones and picked through them.
This is not the case, let’s go!
This piece is grade two, it's two hundred thousand a pound, so put it away and put it away.
This piece was not. Baitao picked it up, looked at it, and then threw it into the corner.
Yeah, this piece is first-class, 600,000 pieces, so happy.
This piece is grade three. Although it only weighs 80,000 kilograms, no matter how small the ants are, they are still meat, so they should be put away.
This piece...
The mountain wall was extremely hard. Bai Dashan finally cut off a piece with a chisel and brought it to Baitao. He happened to see her pick up the stone and look left and right. The next second, she would either throw it away or put it in her bag.
He looked aside for two or three minutes but couldn't see any difference. He couldn't help but curiously asked: "Auntie, are those unnecessary?" Baitao looked up at him, then continued to pick and choose, and casually replied: "Well, No. ”
"Why not?" Bai Dashan still didn't understand. In his opinion, these stones were all similar in size.
Baitao answered without thinking: "They are too ugly." And they can't be sold, so why do they need them?
Uh... This natural answer made Bai Dashan stunned for a moment.
He couldn't help but look carefully at the stone thrown away by Baitao, and then looked at the stone she put in her bag, nodded, and agreed: "It's because he is not good-looking."
These words actually made Baitao stop his selection and looked up at him, as if asking, do you understand?
A flash of embarrassment flashed across Bai Dashan's face, but he said calmly: "My aunt is right, they just don't look good."
Although he couldn't see it, since his aunt said it, it was right.
The corner of Baitao's mouth twitched, and when she was about to say something, she caught a glimpse of the stone in Bai Dashan's hand, and immediately took it from his hand and put it into his satchel.
While she was picking it up, she said in a coquettish voice: "How old are you? You can't play with rocks like others." This is a first-grade white floating ore worth 600,000 yuan. She has to keep it.
Baitao has a high seniority, and everyone in Taohua Village is a junior, so he doesn't seem to be out of line when he preaches to anyone.
Immediately, she nuzzled towards the cave wall again and urged: "There are so many more up there, go dig them quickly."
"Hey, hey, hey." Bai Dashan responded, picked up the chisel and continued working.
Most of them have seen the stones picked by Baitao, or it may be the first time they cut white pumice, and they have a feeling. Six or seven out of ten stones picked by Bai Dashan are white pumice.
The probability is indeed not low, so Baitao praised it several times.
Bai Dashan was so happy that he almost lost his way.
At this time, Bai Xiaocao was asking his brother what happened.
After listening, she happily praised: "We Shitou are so good. My aunt is so kind to us and keeps us fed and clothed. We must honor our aunt well."
The two siblings were young and didn't have much to do. They were lucky that their aunt took a fancy to the rocks that their younger brother used to play with.
"Shitou, let me tell you, if it weren't for my aunt, we would have died a long time ago."
"My aunt is young, and like us, she lost her parents early. We need to take more care of her. Only with my aunt, we have roots and are the people of Taohua Village..."
Bai Xiaocao has said this countless times, and Bai Shitou is naturally familiar with it.
He nodded obediently: "Sister, I, I know."
The cave wall is indeed hard. Fortunately, there are many people in Taohua Village. After knowing that Baitao wanted these stones, the villagers took turns chipping away at them.
You can't go without eating while digging rocks, but because you were thinking about the rocks, Baitao ate the lunch meal a little absent-mindedly.
When all the stones in the Baifu Stone Cave were dug out one by one, Baitao walked back and forth in the cave without hearing any prompts from the mall. After making sure that nothing was missing, he began to settle the accounts with satisfaction.
She came out of the cave, but the villagers did not stop. Seeing how happy the aunt was, the smile on her little face never left her face.
It's hard for my aunt to find someone she likes. As juniors, they must respect her.
As a result, the villagers continued to dig and chisel, digging into the mountain wall more than one meter deep.
Even the hole that could only be used by one person was dug so that four or five people could enter and exit at the same time. When they saw that none of the stones and white peaches coming out from behind were interested, they regretfully gave up.
"Everyone has worked hard, thank you for your hard work." Baitao's mind was on the mall, and she comforted absentmindedly.
