Chapter 58 57. Grass Buds

When the moisture inside the tree house was completely eliminated by the sun, Huai Yu not only turned over another piece of land and applied wood ash, but also turned over and dried the soil in the previous piece of land.

After the heavy rain, the weather was clear for several days in a row. The grass on all sides seemed to have received instructions from the solar terms and was growing rapidly every day.

The vast wilderness where grass looked green but was not visible nearby has now become a furry green carpet.

It is dotted with various baby blue veronica flowers, yellow dandelions, deep purple violets... In the corner there is also a thin lilac only about ten to twenty centimeters high, with slightly purple buds just forming.

When the straw curtain was lifted, what came into view was such a prosperous spring scenery. Huai Yu was not even in a hurry to farm. Instead, he rushed into the densest grass with cheers, lay on his back and rolled over.

The sky is a very light blue.

Wisps of clouds were floating, also so faint that their shapes could not be seen. She lay on the ground, feeling the slight coolness of the ground and the special smell of grass. At this moment, she stretched out her hand and pulled out a tender and slender grass sprout.

After peeling off the green grass leaves, the soft, milky white grass sprouts inside were exposed. She grabbed them with a "ah-woo" bite, and then her facial features twisted and her expression was embarrassed:

"Pah, pah, pah, pah!"

It’s so disgusting!

Is this the legendary “even dogs won’t eat it”?

All the comfort was shattered by the extremely unpalatable taste. Huaiyu turned over and sat up, staring at the large area of ​​reed sprouts in front of him, heartache revealed in his eyes.

But she quickly came to her senses, took another cigarette, peeled it, and tasted it slowly, enduring the unpalatable taste.

In her opinion, the taste of the grass sprouts is soft and slightly sweet when they are at their tenderest, which seems to be the unique childhood happiness in her memory.

But now... the taste is still smooth, but the taste is... sour, bitter, mustard...

I tried it again and it still tasted terrible.

But it’s not to the point that dogs won’t eat it.

Huaiyu thought about it and guessed that these mutation values ​​might not reach "23".

She didn't have much to share now, but she still needed a hoe to farm, and it wasn't enough to eat soybeans while farming. In addition, it was hard to kill time when she was bored at night.

After all, even purification is essentially an extremely boring action.

Thinking of this, Huai Yu stood up, went back to the tree house, took out the backpack, and started picking the grass sprouts.

Unlike her usual attire, she was still wearing the same outfit she wore when she was working. She kept picking while walking, and when the basket was nearly one-third full, she was almost at the bus stop.

However, I was the only one standing on this platform before, but today there were two people standing there. They were wearing uniforms and standing straight.

It's the defense army.

However, Huaiyu took a look and found that it was not someone he knew, so he stood aside quietly with the backpack on his back.

The two men looked at her strangely, then looked around the platform and couldn't help but look at her again.

The two of them chatted for a few words, and when one of them walked over here as if he wanted to say something, the bus arrived.

As soon as Huaiyu got on the bus, he heard the driver yelling, "Score points! Score points! It's not free anymore!"

Huaiyu held out her bracelet, and with a "beep" sound, two points were deducted directly! She felt heartbroken instantly: Why is it so expensive? And thinking about the unpurified grass buds on her back, she was not going to the pedestrian street today! That's right, now her life is on the right track, and I believe that other people are basically on the right track, so the danger should be much less than before.

In addition, she lived in such a remote place, she couldn't go to Hongsheng Market to buy small things every day, right? It would take three or four hours to go back and forth, which was really a waste of time.

Therefore, Huaiyu decided to go to the nearby Jinyuan Community today.

The aunties who take the bus often talk about this, saying that there are a lot of people allocated in Jinyuan Community, nearly 30,000.

In the central square of the community, people set up stalls every day, selling all kinds of things.

Since they sell everything, there shouldn't be any problem for her to sell some unpalatable moss sprouts, which have a high mutation value, right?

If no one buys it, the worst that can happen is that I can just carry it back myself, purify it and eat it.

Who knew that as soon as I got on the bus, two points were gone.

Just as he was feeling heartbroken, he saw the two defenders hesitate, slowly walk up to him, and then whispered:

"Girl, why are you getting on this platform? This is the Rose Corridor, you can't just go near it."

In front of them, Huaiyu couldn't say that he had a brother in the camp.

I had no choice but to hold the backpack tighter and said weakly, "I saw the grass sprouts over there were growing well... I didn't get too close. I stayed far away."

Look at her basket again, and sure enough, it's full of tender and juicy grass sprouts.

but……

“Is this edible?”

One of the defenders asked hesitantly.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Huai Yu's mind moved, and then he took the initiative to peel off two sprouts: "Yes, I have tasted it."

She eagerly handed over two peeled white tender grass sprouts and looked at the two of them expectantly, as if seeking their approval.

The two defenders looked young and were probably a little shy. They hesitantly stretched out their hands and took the gift from the little girl.

Huaiyu stared at the two of them, but when he saw the sprouts in each other's hands go into their mouths, neither of them frowned, but chewed them, with a look of curiosity on their faces:

"Not bad. How do you plan to sell this?"

Huh? Now it was Huaiyu's turn to be dumbfounded.

It's just... so unpalatable, but it's still okay? She suddenly became curious about what the date that Uncle Zaozi had eaten tasted like.

But at this moment, faced with the question of price, she had no idea and could only lower her head and said awkwardly: "I don't know either. My family asked me to sell it casually... Brothers, you guys decide how much to give..."

The two hesitated for a moment, exchanged glances, and one of them said, "I think the mutation value is less than 18, so let's say 12 per pound. There are probably three or four pounds in this basket - do you have a scale?"

Huaiyu knew that their price was too high.

It might be true that the variation value did not exceed 18, but 12 per pound was clearly for coaxing children.

Nowadays, people measure price by the variation value and the ability to fill their stomachs.

For a "snack" like Mao Yaer, only Boss Tang could offer a good price. But Boss Tang only accepted good things, and with such a high mutation value, it was not his target at all.

The market price of this thing is probably around 6 cents per pound at most.

Huaiyu shook his head: "12 is not for sale!"

"Brother, if you want it, give me two points and I'll give you a handful to try."

After saying this, the two people on the opposite side were stunned. Then they touched their noses and smiled embarrassedly: "So you know the price."

I'm so tired after going out to do some work today. I have another day tomorrow, so I'll just keep updating twice. My neighbor asked for leave today. It's too late.

Update 2, good night.

I'm going to Jinyuan Community tomorrow! New small map.
