Chapter 401
So she stayed in the countryside quietly for a while afterwards. The only thing she did out of the ordinary was to go to the mountains frequently or pick mountain products. She never went to the black market again because she was worried about being caught by them.
Next, Tang Yue didn't say much to Brother Hu, and concentrated on putting the cream into the box. She wanted to finish it as soon as possible and go back home.
It took 11 people almost an hour to pack all 1,280 boxes. I saw that there was still three-quarters of the face cream in the barrel. I thought that such a big barrel could hold about 5,000 boxes. I lied to him and said I had another barrel of medicinal materials at home.
I thought that the total was almost 10,000 boxes, and each box was sold at 5 yuan, which was almost 50,000 yuan in total. It was better than nothing.
The two of them counted the boxes face to face and confirmed that there were 1,280 boxes. Brother Hu had counted the boxes in advance, and when he saw that the eldest sister had counted them clearly, he took out the money and handed it to her.
Tang Yue counted the total amount to 6,400 yuan. After confirming that there was no problem, she closed the lid of the stainless steel barrel and prepared to go back with the barrel in her arms.
"Brother Tiger, when will we trade next time?"
Brother Hu thought that these boxes would be sold out in half a month at most. During this half month, the carpenters should be able to make 4,000 boxes if they work overtime.
"Big sister, let's do the transaction in half a month. By then, we will have at least 4,000 boxes."
"Okay, then let's do the deal again in half a month."
Tang Yue carried the bucket and walked straight out of the cave. After walking for about ten minutes, she scanned the surroundings with her mental power to make sure there was no one there. Then she put the stainless steel bucket into the space warehouse and headed home.
When he was almost at the foot of the mountain, he saw that there was no one there, so he created a male deer from space, trapped all the deer's legs, knocked the deer unconscious, and then sneaked back home.
After that, Tang Yue went to trade every half a month until both barrels of cream were traded, and then she ended the transaction with Brother Hu.
During this time, he pretended not to understand Brother Hu's question about the upstream supplier. He wanted to get rid of himself so that he could find the upstream supplier himself.
This made Tang Yue very confused. Was the army so short of food? Otherwise, why would he be so bold?
Soon it was the time for autumn harvest again. I thought about the mountain products I picked up last year during the autumn harvest in the village. Then I spent the past few months at home working non-stop to pick up mountain products.
I kind of don't want to go, because the family is too tiring. When I'm a cat, I work non-stop and never have a moment to rest. It takes a year to finish the food. Of course, most of it is ground into flour and eaten as steamed buns and cakes.
Another thing was to send them to the people in the cowshed. My father-in-law's colleague had been locked up there. If it weren't for the help from his family, he would have starved to death long ago. Including the others in there, their lives were really too hard. They always did the most tiring work and ate the worst and least food.
If it weren’t for the help from my family, I wouldn’t have been able to survive last year.
Tang Yue thought that if she didn't go to pick mountain products, she would have no idea where the chestnut forest was, which was a pity. There were also some pine trees deep in the mountains in the forest, which were all places she had no way to go. If she didn't pick them, they would probably be wasted, she didn't know.
After thinking about it, I decided to go. This year is my last year. Next year I should follow Brother Shengrui to his army. What if the destination I am assigned to is the south? By then I won’t have the things I want.
The weather was getting colder and colder, and Tang Yue would run up and down the mountain several times every day. Every time she came back, she would bring back large and small bags of mountain products, chestnuts, pine nuts, and even mushrooms.
The mushrooms are packed in large and small bags and kept at home, and then my mother-in-law and aunts will pick them out and dry them in the sun. The dried mushrooms can be kept for a very long time, and there is still no problem even if you eat them two years later.
The villagers were busy with the autumn harvest for more than a month, and only after that did they have time to go to the mountains to pick products.
When Tang Yue saw them going, she slowly stopped going. After all, she had a lot of things piled up in her space over the past month, and even more at home.
Of course, compared to last year, it is almost half less. Most of them are kept in the space. After all, I will not be here during the Chinese New Year. If I put too much, I will not be able to eat it all. Most of the food piled up at home is sent to the cowshed.
Every night, when everyone was asleep, my father-in-law would secretly carry a sack over. Maybe he didn't know because everyone was asleep, but Tang Mi knew it. Besides, my aunt and uncle also knew the shortage of chestnuts and pine nuts in the house.
No one said anything, and everyone pretended not to know. They even carried the mushrooms they had picked in two sacks.
Tang Yue had been notified of all these, and she had told her in advance before sending them over, fearing that her daughter-in-law would feel uncomfortable. After all, these were things that she had brought down from the mountain with great difficulty.
Tang Yue didn't care at all. After all, she had plenty of food in her space, and she only took this kind of mountain product as a snack. But don't think it was life-saving. After all, they really gave out very little food, and it was all bad food.
The people in the cowshed would never be able to eat their fill, not even half full, unless they went up the mountain to find a way out.
Tang Yue always thought that it was a good deed, so she didn't care at all about her father-in-law sending the things over.
Seeing that the villagers were starting to go up the mountain, I decided not to go up the mountain to pick mountain products. Moreover, the places where I picked the products were all found by myself, and there was a layer of products piled on the surface, which were all products that had not been picked before.
For example, if there was nothing piled up on the surface, she knew that people would come to pick them every year, so she didn't touch them. She always felt that she could find ways to get mountain products in the mountains, so there was no need to compete with the villagers.
This day, Tang Yue was peeling chestnuts at home, and suddenly thought of the yam patch she encountered two years ago. At that time, she dug up all the yams in the entire patch, but planted all the very small ones back there, and she didn't know if they had grown yet.
The next day, she had breakfast very early and set out with a few sacks and a backpack. She wanted to see what the yams in the field were like.
Yams are also very nutritious. Although fresh yam cannot be kept for long, they can be dried and ground into powder. I think it is the most nutritious. I will leave some for Old Liu in the cowshed.
Such tiring work every day must have some damage to the body, so it's a good opportunity for them to get more nutrition.
My family may move away after the New Year, and their lives will be even more miserable then. It's a good opportunity to give them some more yams, let them dry them and grind them into powder, which I think can be kept for a few more years, but I just need to find a good method.
