This doesn't even include the chicken head rice that the villagers brought before dark.
Shui Qing calmed herself down and realized that she was on the right track.
Earning several thousand or even tens of thousands a day, that's considered high income anywhere.
"Shuiqing, are we getting closer to the amount of medicine we need?" Fan Jin, who was standing next to him, couldn't see the amount, but estimated it by arithmetic.
The thought of the 8,000 yuan needed to open a drug deal made Shuiqing feel like a deflated balloon.
With the addition of water chestnuts at night, if things go well, there might be enough money to activate the service. But once activated, decades of hard work could be wiped out in an instant, leaving you back to square one.
"We still need to acquire them; that's how we make money faster!" she muttered.
Fan Jin responded gently from the side, "Yes, medicine is essential. Didn't you say there are also protective and storage items later? We should open them one by one when we earn more money."
Shui Qing felt a surge of fighting spirit when she thought of those ridiculously high, no, ridiculously high things!
Make money, make money, work hard to make money!

When I came back home, I truly had a 'home' now.
A brand-new thatched hut sits on the high ground.
The three thatched huts, though not as spacious and bright as brick houses, provided shelter from the wind and rain, eliminating worries about sun and rain.
Moreover, the people Butcher Hu brought were all very capable workers. Although it was also a thatched hut, it was much more spacious and taller than Aunt Zhang's house, and since it was made of new thatch, it didn't have a musty or rotten smell.
"Let's try to build a brick house before the rainy season comes next year," Fan Jin whispered in Shui Qing's ear.
Shui Qing looked up in surprise.
At Aunt Zhang's house, did he notice something unusual about her?
Fan Jin gently explained, "Don't worry, these thatch plants won't emit those unpleasant smells before the rainy season arrives."
Shui Qing's mood improved without her realizing it; a smile appeared on her lips, and she whispered, "I'm not worried."
Everyone wants to live a good life.
As long as her life gets better day by day, that's enough.
"Go away, this grain is heavy, I'll carry it, you two go to the side!" Butcher Hu shouted.
Shui Qing wisely stepped aside.
He turned around and retrieved the two jin of brown sugar he had extorted from Sun Jinhua.
I'll have my father take it back later so my mother can make it into a drink.
People these days are malnourished, and handmade brown sugar contains many trace elements, which are especially good for women.
The store currently only sells seeds and grains. Everyone can see how much grain they have, and besides, Butcher Hu would definitely refuse to take the grain back with him.
For him, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?
But asking him to take brown sugar back to nourish his mother is not an easy thing to refuse.
Just as Shenshi (3-5 PM) arrived, Shuiqing began cooking dinner.
Fan Jin was washing vegetables, fetching water, and stirring noodles, doing some of the menial tasks.
Since they stayed for dinner, the men, having nothing else to do, followed Hu Wenhua and first helped build a spacious chicken coop, then a large chicken pen.
Then Hu Wenhua wished he could finish all the work at his sister's house in the limited time available. After building the chicken coop, he ran to the back mountain to move stones without stopping.
"Wenhua, what are you doing?"
“I saw a rabbit hole in the hill behind my sister’s house. Maybe one day my brother-in-law’s nephew will catch a wild rabbit!”
I'll build them a rabbit hutch in advance. Rabbits are easy to raise and reproduce, so they'll be able to eat meat from time to time, right?
