Chapter Thirty-Six: Old He's Bizarre Ways of Making Money



...

Dalizhuang

These past few days, the vegetables, sweet potatoes, and potatoes have been mostly planted. He Wan has been having extra meals every day, usually around 10 a.m. She makes an excuse to go to the toilet, then goes into her room to eat some bread, instant noodles, or snacks.

These past few days I haven't been starving. Sometimes when I don't want to eat the food provided by the educated youth ration center at night, I just don't take any food, since she doesn't have much food anyway.

Construction has also begun on the houses behind the educated youth settlement.

Several people who want to stay in separate rooms have been very excited these past two days.

He Wan also wanted one, but unfortunately she didn't have the money.

Look at the few things on the refrigerator. Well, only the fruit can be sold, and even then, there's not much.

There were four apples, a bunch of bananas (two of which she had already eaten), and two oranges.

Apples and bananas are available now, but oranges are clearly not in season.

How much can you sell four apples and this small bunch of bananas for?

After the vegetables are planted, we can rest in the afternoon.

He Wan took out a net and went up the mountain. Actually, she was going to the county town because she had recently discovered a mountain path that led to the county town.

Upon arriving in the county town, He Wan thought for a long time and decided to go to the train station area, where there were many people.

As a result, carrying a net bag, I walked to the train station. When I passed the hospital, a man in his thirties called out to me: "Young man!"

Turning her head, she saw that the uncle was carrying a bag and looked like an official. He was walking very fast and pointing at her with one finger. He Wan thought she had met an official from the Municipal Management Committee, so she quickened her pace.

He thought to himself: I haven't even started selling yet, how did I get caught?

Isn't it said that in historical fiction, having a spatial ability makes hoarding and selling goods as easy as playing a game?

"Hey, young man, why are you walking so fast?"

He Wan turned around and looked at him nervously and warily, asking loudly, "Comrade, what do you want from me?" But she didn't stop walking.

The middle-aged man chased after me, whispering, "Young man, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to chase you. I just want the fruit in your net bag. My father is over seventy years old and is currently hospitalized. He just wants a banana. I've been to several supply and marketing cooperatives and grain and oil stores in the county these past few days. I don't need many, just two or three bananas will do."

He quickly caught up with her, took out five yuan from his pocket, and quietly handed it to her.

He Wan was shocked. "Wow, I was just dozing off when someone came to deliver a pillow, and they even offered to buy it at a high price!"

That's definitely going to work.

He Wan looked around, quickly took the money, and handed him the net bag along with the apples: "Uncle, your filial piety towards the old man has moved me deeply. I'll give you the apples in this bag too, so the old man can have a taste when he gets back."

Having received five yuan, He Wan walked back happily, arriving at the educated youth settlement as darkness fell.

On Yun Shudai's side.

The second day of filming was similar to the first day, but they used the remaining money to participate in a dragon boat race on the Xiangjiang River. Of course, the money was provided by a guesthouse. After the trip, they would work at the guesthouse to pay back the money.

At noon, a tour group came to the guesthouse and wanted to eat there. There was food for ten people, plus the seven guests and the guesthouse owner's staff, so they had to cook for more than twenty people.

To cook, you first need ingredients. The guesthouse owner has a vegetable garden on the small hill behind the guesthouse, so they have to go to the vegetable garden.

Team leader Yao Cheng assigned tasks: "Because we have to cook a lot of food, we need to split up."

Shen Jimeng said with a sweet smile, "Captain, please make the arrangements."

"Okay, the key is to see who can cook. Raise your hand if you can cook."

The only responses were from Shen Jimeng and Sister Ning: "Oh no, there are so many of you, and none of you can cook a meal?"
