Chapter 78 Are they sick?
Speaking of which, Baitao also wondered why Bai Shitou could sell her stones for money every time. Could it have something to do with his name?
Baitao was really right, Bai Shitou was indeed interested in Shituan Shizi because of his name.
After she was interested in stones last time, Bai Shitou became more interested in stones and stones.
At this time, Bai Tao didn't know that her unintentional move made Bai Shitou become an expert in this field.
Of course, this is a story for another day.
At this moment, Bai Shitou shook his head: "I want my aunt to be happy."
I don't know if it's because of the nutritious food he's been eating recently, but Bai Shitou no longer stumbles when he talks like before, and his little face is also a lot rounder.
Hearing this, Baitao couldn't help but be happy: "You are not young, but you are quite good at making people happy."
Bai Shitou was only three years old, so he didn't know anything, but when he saw Bai Tao, the aunt, smiling, he also laughed too.
He smiled sweetly, and the dimples on his cheeks were exposed, which made Baitao couldn't help but reach out and poke them: "You should smile more, you look very cute when you smile."
Bai Shitou nodded shyly and responded obediently: "I listen to my aunt."
Not far away, Bai Xiaocao looked at it, feeling happy and sad at the same time.
The sad thing is that I feel that my brother doesn’t like to laugh even though I have said it many times, but when my aunt talks about it, my brother listens.
What makes me happy is that my aunt likes my younger brother. My aunt is so lucky that her ancestral graves would be filled with smoke if she likes him.
Next to them, the villagers saw Baitao smiling, and they also curled up their mouths. That's great, it's good that my aunt is happy.
Digging for rocks?
We have experience with this. I happened to have too much dinner and move around.
So, the next scene made the people watching dumbfounded.
The people of Heifeng Village never expected that this group of people would stay up all night, carrying hoes and pickaxes to dig stones along the official road.
After digging, he carried it to a pack truck. After a while, he carried it down again and dumped it on the roadside.
They were far away, and the people watching could not see clearly. They could only see that baskets of stones were being carried onto the wagons, and then taken out and thrown away.
The people following him became more and more confused.
No, are they sick?
After spending most of the night, you have so much strength that you have no place to use it?
At the end, everyone in Heifeng Village began to doubt whether there were any good things in the other trucks.
Baitao, on the other hand, looked at the constantly beating balance and narrowed his eyes with laughter.
There is strength in numbers, but in just over two hours, more than 20,000 kilograms have been lost.
The villagers put the excavated stones into frames and put them on the wagons. The mall will automatically peel off the ocher, leaving useless stones.
At dawn, the ocher was almost gone.
Baitao became drowsy with sleep. When he saw the amount, he was shocked. Seven hundred and sixty-five thousand four hundred and thirty-seven point eight pounds? !
Although the unit price is not high, the quantity is large.
After leaving the mudslide, this was the biggest gain in three days.
Yesterday and the day before yesterday, they both made 30,000 to 50,000 yuan. Some villagers accidentally picked poisonous mushrooms and sold them at a high price because a scientific research institution wanted to buy them.
No matter what it is, as long as it is titled as research, the price will be higher.
Baitao didn't let the villagers dig ocher overnight, but he couldn't bear the enthusiasm of everyone.
In the words of the villagers, it would be enough for two or three people from one household to dig for an hour.
Everyone was working so hard, but she, the aunt, was fast asleep. Baitao felt a little embarrassed for a moment. "What a joy."
"Hey, grandma." Bai Duoxi got up very early. He also ran to dig stones for half an hour yesterday.
No one asked for it, he wanted to do it himself, and he was idle anyway.
"You guys have been working all night, thank you for your hard work, please make something delicious."
Bai Duoxi: "Yes."
Bai Duoxi originally thought that it would be just millet porridge, boil some eggs, and make some onions and stir-fried shredded pork, which would be good.
Who knows, Baitao shook his head.
"The staple food is fried multigrain pancakes. I'm quite tired after working all night. I need to eat some meat to replenish my strength. The cumin mutton you made last time was good. Let's make a haggis soup. By the way, you can't miss the eggs."
As soon as the breakfast was out of the pot, the villagers were moved again. It was just digging out some rocks. It didn't take much effort. There was nothing to mend.
In the past, everyone went to the town to find odd jobs during the off-season, and they only earned seven or eight copper coins a day, and the one meal they received was corn porridge with watery soup and water.
Little do the villagers know that Baitao loves to eat meat, and since they earn so much for her, they certainly can't be harsh on food.
This breakfast in Taohua Village once again made the people watching in Heifeng Village drool with greed.
No, where did this caravan come from? Is it so rich?
Think about it, didn't they just become bandits just to be able to eat hot food, drink wine, and eat meat?
Looking at it now, it might as well be a caravan traveling north and south.
"Hmph, let you be complacent first, and you will cry bitterly later."
Seeing that the people in Taohua Village had eaten breakfast, fed the horses fodder, and were about to set off, the people in Heifeng Village hurriedly made preparations.
"Brothers, this group is a big fat sheep. After doing this, I guarantee that we will have a good year..."
The people who followed them came back and reported that this caravan was eating so well, so it was obvious that they were extremely rich.
This way.
Baitao shouted to stop the villagers from dismantling the tents.
"The sun is so good today, it's a good time to lie down and bask in the sun."
Baitao's words made the villagers confused. Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and then you looked up at the sky. The sun is pretty good.
Although, but... well, since my aunt doesn't want to leave, then she won't leave. There is nothing important to do, so it doesn't matter if it's one day early or one day late.
Bai Dashan waved his hand: "Then we won't leave, and everyone will do whatever they need to do."
Seeing this, Baitao sighed softly: "There's nothing to do, just sleep when you're tired."
When the villagers heard this, they immediately felt warm in their hearts and their eyes were a little red. What kind of weather is good to bask in the sun? My aunt felt sorry for the guy who had been digging rocks all night last night.
With nothing to do, Baitao invited Bai Duoxi and began to study food.
"Auntie, what do you want to eat?" He can now make several desserts, which were all taught by his auntie, such as taro sago, creamy mashed potatoes, shredded sweet potatoes, frosted taro...
"Well, I kind of want to eat spicy hot pot today." Baitao said and swallowed.
When Bai Duoxi heard this, she quickly took out the recipe.
"Stop turning it over, I'll tell you how to do it." Baitao looked disgusted. You didn't even know a few Chinese characters. By the time you recognized the spicy hot pot, the day lily would have been cold.
The child's expression couldn't hide anything, especially Baitao, who didn't intend to hide it. Bai Duoxi smiled sarcastically: "Auntie, I will work hard to learn more."
"I know. Don't be in a hurry, take your time." Baitao said as he took the recipe and turned to the page of spicy hotpot: "Let me tell you, spicy hotpot is like this..."
