Chapter 007: Killing Plan, Supernatural Power Upgrade
With Ye's father's promise, Ye Qing no longer had to consider other people's thoughts.
It seems that it is Ye's mother who is in charge of everything in this family, but in fact, it is Ye's father who holds the real decision-making power.
Now that Ye's father has agreed to the conditions proposed by Ye Qing, even if Ye's mother and other members of the Ye family have objections, they have to keep them to themselves.
Ye Zhigao and Ye Hong were of course dissatisfied with this.
After all, these two were used to being selfish and regarded the family money as their own. One of them was 19 and the other was 18 years old, and they would soon be old enough to start a family. They had already made plans to cheat Ye's father and mother out of their savings.
But now Ye Qing suddenly did this, asking for money, watches and cotton, which completely disrupted the plans of the two.
Although Ye's father and mother are both workers, and their combined salary is nearly 100 yuan per month, there are too many people in the family.
Moreover, the Ye family has grandparents living in the countryside, and they have to give them five yuan in maintenance every month, so all in all, it would be good if the Ye family can save a hundred or so yuan every year.
If calculated this way, the money that the Ye family has saved over the years is only a little over two thousand yuan at most.
But this time Ye Qing asked for a huge sum of money, taking away seven or eight hundred yuan at once, which meant that the family savings would be reduced by one third. How could Ye Zhigao and Ye Hong not be resentful and annoyed?
Ye's mother was also very frustrated.
She had a plan for how to spend the family's money. She had already thought about giving her job to her eldest son, and after two or three years, she would find a way to buy a job for her youngest son. The remaining money would probably be just enough for both sons to get married.
But Ye's father has always had the final say in this family. If he agrees with everything, even if Ye's mother has more ideas, it is not easy for her to refute them at this moment.
Originally, after she knew that Ye Qing would not live long, she really felt that she owed her second daughter a little.
But after Ye Qing made such a fuss, the little guilt she had left suddenly disappeared, leaving only anger and dissatisfaction.
Ye Qing knew, of course, that everyone in the family had their own ulterior motives, but she didn't care. After achieving her goal, she even smiled and walked into the utility room on the balcony.
After running around outside all day, she was a little tired and needed a good sleep. After all, she had to go to the suburbs early the next morning.
Even though he had already torn his relations with this big family, Ye Qing was fearless and did not worry at all that these people in the Ye family would do anything extreme.
After all, it was obvious that she had a heart disease.
Unless the Ye family is stupid, they will not provoke her at this time. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens and she dies before going to the countryside to join the production team, the Ye family will have to send another child to the countryside, which is absolutely not worth the loss.
The Ye family is cautious and will try to keep Ye Qing under control before the matter of going to the countryside is settled, no matter how dissatisfied they are.
Ye Qing was sleeping soundly in the sundry room on the balcony, but over there the Ye family members were very angry.
"What are you daydreaming about? Go and cook. Don't you realize how late it is? I'm starving!"
Father Ye barked orders at Mother Ye in an unpleasant manner.
Ye's mother's expression suddenly darkened.
In recent years, the housework has basically been done by the second daughter. She has not done any housework for many years. Now she is suddenly asked to cook, and she doesn't even know where to start.
Ye's mother instinctively wanted to ask her eldest daughter to help her.
But Ye Hong was very cunning. Knowing that Ye's father was interested in the promotion, he immediately pretended to have a detailed chat with Ye's father about the situation of Director Yang.
This was a big deal in the eyes of Ye's father. He immediately couldn't wait to pull Ye Hong to inquire about it and refused to let Ye's mother call her away.
The remaining three looked at each other and then hid in the room, with no intention of going to help Ye's mother at all.
Ye's mother was upset and could only throw things around in the kitchen.
We hurriedly prepared dinner, and it certainly didn't taste very good, but we were all hungry, so we didn't have time to care about the taste of the food. We just had a quick meal.
When she lay in bed at night, Ye's mother tossed and turned and became more and more angry. She couldn't help but ask Ye's father:
"This second girl has grown too powerful. She seemed very considerate and sensible before, but I didn't expect that she has such deep thoughts! This daughter is really raised in vain. Old Ye, you are not really going to fulfill her wish and give her everything she wants, are you? All that money is saved for our son!"
A gloomy look flashed across Ye's father's eyes:
"Even if I give her this money, will she live to spend it? Don't worry, I have already thought of a way to make her give it back the same way she took it away!"
Ye's mother was stunned and asked Ye's father what he had thought of.
Father Ye did not explain much, but said meaningfully:
"She won't live long anyway, so she'd better die in a way that's of some use to her! If this matter is arranged properly, not only can we get our money back, but we might even be able to get the Revolutionary Committee to owe us a big favor!"
Ye Qing didn't know that her father was planning to kill her.
She slept quite soundly that night and woke up before six in the morning.
Since she was going to the suburbs, she didn't delay and got up, washed up quickly, and went out.
At this time, the other members of the Ye family had not gotten up yet. The incident that Ye Qing had caused yesterday had caused great shock to the whole family, so they all suffered from insomnia and tossed and turned until the early morning before they fell asleep.
Ye Qing first went to the state-owned hotel to queue up for breakfast. For one cent, he could eat all he could with two fried dough sticks and a bowl of soy milk.
Then she walked around the vegetable market, looked around, and learned about the price situation in Shanghai at that time.
At this time, you have to queue up at the food, oil, non-staple food, meat and vegetable stalls. Even though it is only six o'clock, there are already long queues everywhere. The vegetable market does not supply much, and as soon as the goods are put on the shelves, they are sold out in less than half an hour.
After Ye Qing looked around, he had a general idea in his mind.
In short, all the stores and factories that can be seen on the streets now are state-owned, and everything must be purchased with a ticket.
Occasionally, there are defective products that do not require a ticket in supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores, but such items are basically sold by internal staff, and outsiders cannot buy them at all if they do not have such connections.
Ye Qing actually wanted to go to the black market, but she had just arrived and didn't know where the black market was.
But once she gets the money from the Ye family, she will have a lot more money on hand, and there won't be any need for her to go to the black market.
She didn't waste time thinking about it, so she just strolled around and then walked to the bus stop.
I spent seven cents to buy a bus ticket and took the suburban line to Sheshan in the suburbs.
The topography of Shanghai is basically a delta alluvial plain. There are no high mountains or steep ridges around. The only thing that can be called a hill is probably the Sheshan Mountain in the western suburbs.
Although it is called a mountain, its altitude is less than 100 meters. However, the mountain is composed of more than a dozen small peaks, and the forest area is more than 400 hectares with lush vegetation.
So Ye Qing naturally chose this place as the second stop to absorb supernatural powers.
Sure enough, as soon as they got off the car and walked to the foot of the mountain, the rich vitality enveloped them domineeringly. Ye Qing could feel the supernatural power in his body stirring, and he couldn't wait.
This barren mountain is not like the People's Park where people still come to stroll around in broad daylight. It is estimated that at this time, the farmers in the surrounding area are all working in the fields. Therefore, Ye Qing had no scruples at all. After entering the woods, he was like a mouse in an oil tank, exposing his belly to absorb energy.
Yesterday in People's Park, Ye Qing felt that he was about to have a breakthrough.
So after being in the woods for less than half an hour, she felt like her body was about to explode.
This is a sign that the supernatural power is about to be upgraded!
Ye Qing gritted her teeth and persevered, enduring the severe pain in her body. However, before she could digest the energy she had just absorbed, her blood surged and blood gushed out of her eyes, ears, mouth and nose uncontrollably. Then her vision went black and she passed out.
Ye Qing didn't wake up until he heard the chirping of birds.
When I opened my eyes again, I saw the sun hanging high in the center of the sky. I estimated that it was noon.
In other words, she was dizzy for several hours.
Fortunately, her persistence was right, because her ability did break through the shackles and was successfully upgraded to level two.
Ye Qing couldn't help but show joy on his face.
After all, there is a qualitative difference between primary and secondary abilities.
At the primary level, her body was like a small pool of water, and the wood energy she could store was quite limited.
But after the upgrade, it was like the water from a pond flowed into a lake. The storage space was expanded at least a hundred times, which was completely different from the initial state.
Ye Qing even suspected that even if she absorbed all the wood energy in the entire She Mountain, she might not be able to reach the limit of her second-level supernatural power capacity.
Of course, she was about to go to the countryside, and she had limited time, so it was impossible for her to touch all the trees before going.
The 400-hectare Sheshan Mountain is hundreds of times the size of the People's Park, so there are many trees for Ye Qing to choose from. So she has become particularly picky and will only buy tall, lush trees that are extremely rich in wood energy.
Another benefit of upgrading her supernatural power is that her speed in absorbing wood energy has also increased. Originally, it took her two or three minutes to absorb a tree, but now it can be done in basically half a minute.
But even so, it would be impossible for her to screen such a large area of forest in just a few days.
Ye Qing also knew that she couldn't be greedy. Fortunately, Sheshan was not her final destination. Once she got down from the countryside, the sky would be high and the sea would be vast, and there would definitely be bigger and denser forests waiting for her.
He stayed in the woods for seven or eight hours, and only stopped to rest in the afternoon when the sun was setting.
Because of yesterday's experience in People's Park, Ye Qing did not fight an unprepared battle this time.
When she was having breakfast at the state-owned hotel, she bought a few more buns as dry food. There were also various wild fruits in the forest, so she didn't feel hungry even though she was busy all day.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, she decided not to stay in the woods any longer and prepared to take a bus back to the city and fight again tomorrow.
Although she has wood-related abilities, her fighting ability is limited. Who knows if there are any large ferocious animals in the deep mountains?
If she spent the night in the woods and encountered any danger, she might not be able to handle it alone.
As a result, when Ye Qing turned around to go down the mountain, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his head.
——Something hit her on the head.
