Chapter 305 Freshly Unearthed
I remember when she bought these decorations for the Chinese New Year before she traveled through time, she couldn't afford them even if they didn't cost hundreds of dollars.
But obviously these things are usually sold at very low prices.
"Next year, wait until next year." Baitao: "At that time, I will study hard and try to come up with more tricks."
It takes little effort to automate the production of these things in factories, so the cost is extremely low.
Baitao has already thought of distributing a large amount of goods when the time comes.
No matter where in the world, the Chinese New Year is always festive and lively.
The items are fresh and colorful, and even ordinary people can buy three or five items to decorate their homes, so they will definitely not have to worry about sales.
"Sister Tao, you're here just in time. You can take some back later and ask your shop assistant to decorate the shop for you..."
Tao Jiaren did not refuse and said with a smile: "Then I won't be polite."
"Come, I brought you some gifts, see if you like them."
After receiving the gift from Tao Jiaren, Baitao naturally liked it, and she also asked Bai Dashan to prepare another gift in return.
There are many kinds of gifts in return, the most important thing is food.
There are only three peaches in the gift box. Don’t look at too many peaches in a large box. These are peaches in the Xumi space, with a little aura.
There are also peaches in this season, which are very precious in themselves, not to mention that they have the effect of strengthening the body, dispelling diseases and eliminating disasters.
Although Tao Jiaren may not know it, gifts must be given at the right time and in the right amount, otherwise they will seem worthless.
No wonder in modern times, there are only two or three items in a gift box, but they often cost thousands or tens of thousands.
For example, mooncakes are over-packaged, which makes the price inflated.
Mooncakes sold for three to five months can actually be sold for tens of thousands of yuan per box. Even if they are white peaches now, I can't help but complain that it's not that expensive to eat gold.
The second gift is ginseng produced in Xumi space, which is two hundred years old.
Even though it is only two hundred years old, it contains the aura of the Sumeru space and is as effective as 500-year-old ginseng.
The medicinal fragrance of ginseng could be smelled even through the brocade box, so Tao Jiaren couldn't help but open the brocade box.
At just one glance, she was stunned. The ginseng was watery, and there was still a little dust on the roots.
"My dear, this ginseng was just pulled out of the soil, right?" It really looks like it was just pulled out of the field and then placed in a brocade box.
Hearing this, Baitao smiled sheepishly and said, "No, it's been a while since I pulled it out."
She wasn't lying. It had been four or five hours since she took it out of Xumi Space and packed it up in Bai Dashan.
Tao Jiaren said dumbly, does this mean that it was indeed just dug up? !
No wonder it's so fresh.
The return gift also included a box of bayberries, a box of kiwi fruits, a box of cherry tomatoes and three papayas.
Papaya was called longevity fruit in ancient times.
Junji Town is located in the north-northwest. Southern fruits like papaya are almost impossible to see in the north.
Therefore, Baitao felt at ease and gave Tao Jiaren the fruit papaya worth 0.6 yuan per pound in the mall as a high-end gift.
Baitao explained how to eat it very thoughtfully. Her way of explaining was naturally to eat the food in front of Tao Jiaren.
"This longevity fruit can also be stewed with snow clams, milk, bird's nest, white fungus (tremella), peach gum, lotus seeds and red dates to make a dessert."
As he spoke, Baitao swallowed the papaya meat in his mouth, and then continued: "It can also be made into dishes with chicken, ribs, peanuts, pig's feet, etc. It is also very delicious." Tao Jiaren was amazed as she listened: "This longevity fruit It’s really good. “It can be eaten raw, cooked, and made into a tonic. No wonder it’s called longevity fruit.
"My dear, your caravan brought these precious fruits from the south and put a lot of effort into preserving them."
"You brought so much for me, do you still have enough for the New Year?" Tao Jiaren felt that she would eat some at Baitao now, and taking it away seemed a bit shameless.
Baitao said hurriedly: "That's enough."
"If you have something delicious, you should share it with Sister Tao." Bai Taoxin said, can I say that every household in my Taohua Village has eaten various fruits several times.
"This is a New Year's gift. Sister Tao, don't be polite to me." Speaking of which, except for peaches and ginseng, these gifts are valuable.
Baitao ordered the remaining items from the mall, which only cost a few hundred coins.
No matter which world you are in, there is nothing women don’t like about accessories.
Baitao specially selected from the mall and prepared two sets of jewelry for Tao Jiaren, one set of large and round pearls, and the other set of crystals.
Although the value is not as high as the little golden doll given by Tao Jiaren, these two sets of jewelry are special treasures in this era.
Therefore, Baitao gave it away with peace of mind.
Tao Jiaren stayed in Taohua Village until the afternoon, and then reluctantly left.
"My dear, I have to go home to worship my ancestors. I haven't been in Junji Town for at least half a month recently." She has been away all year round, and she has not been here during the New Year's holidays in the past two years.
I received news a while ago that some people in the clan were once again trying to take advantage of her family's ancestral property. If this hadn't been the case, she wouldn't have had to go back this year.
Those fields and homesteads were left to her by her parents before they passed away. Although she was away from home all year round, that was not the reason why the ancestral property was occupied.
"Isn't Sister Tao's home in Junji Town?" Baitao: "Sister Tao, please be careful on the road."
Tao Jiaren smiled: "It's also in Dongzhou, but it's eight or nine days' journey from Junji Town."
"Yeah." Baitao nodded.
After thinking about it, she asked Bai Dashan to bring some goods over.
"Sister Tao, here are some duck necks, duck collarbones, duck tongues and duck legs. They are sweet and spicy. I quite like them. You can lead the way to pass the time."
Tao Jiaren knew that Baitao liked to cook up some strange and delicious foods, so although she never ate duck necks, she did not refuse at this time.
Tao Jiaren felt warm in her heart: "Thank you, little cutie."
After her parents passed away, she only felt care from Baitao, care without any purpose.
"Otherwise..." Tao Jiaren stopped mid-sentence.
She didn't know how bad things would happen when she went back this time. Why would she let the little cutie go back with her to experience those annoying things during the Chinese New Year?
Besides, when we went back to celebrate the Snow Mountain Festival, the little cutie disappeared for a few days, which really shocked the people in Peach Blossom Village. Without opening her mouth, Tao Jiaren knew that the people in Peach Blossom Village would definitely not agree.
Meeting Baitao's puzzled gaze, Tao Jiaren smiled: "It's nothing, then I will first wish the little cutie and everyone in Taohua Village everything goes well in the new year, smile often, and make a lot of money..."
Bai Dashan was waiting aside after delivering the duck. When he heard these words, he quickly bowed his hands to Tao Jiaren and said, "Thank you, Boss Tao, for your kind words."
"On behalf of everyone in Taohua Village, and on behalf of our aunt, I wish you a safe journey, a happy New Year, and all the best."
This typhoon is really... the typhoon passed through, leaving behind devastation.
The destructive power of nature is truly terrifying!
