“Okay!” An Shuyi nodded. “Then I’ll take a walk around the area.” She then handed the bucket to Xia Hua, saying she would fill it up for her later.
Then she searched nearby, brought up the trading system, clicked on the selling section, placed her hand on the sapling, redwood sapling, three hundred coins, this is acceptable, not as expensive as the rosewood sapling from before, but not cheap either, enough to buy a lot of grain.
She pulled out the tree and sold it, then continued searching, but the trees she found were all common and not expensive. Suddenly, she spotted a sapling and rushed over. It was an ebony sapling, worth a thousand coins.
What kind of tree is this? She's never heard of it before. But it's quite expensive. Who cares what kind of sapling it is? As long as it can be sold for money, that's fine. She pulled the tree out and sold it.
Seeing the golden orchid blooming on the rock, she thought, "This should be sellable, right?" She placed her hand on it. "One golden orchid, five hundred taels."
An Shuyi stared in surprise at the golden flower. Could this really be fake, selling for five hundred taels of silver? She quickly grabbed a stick and started digging around the orchid. By the time she dug out the golden orchid, quite some time had passed.
She clicked on the "sell" option and selected "sell." Her balance became 501 taels and 801 coins. She clicked on her balance, wondering if she could withdraw the silver. She clicked on 801 coins, and one copper coin dropped out. She then clicked on 501 taels, and one tael dropped out. Could it be that she could just click on as much as she wanted in the future?
Looking at the remaining balance, he stopped counting and instead put the silver in his hand into the warehouse, along with the original owner's inheritance.
Seeing that it was almost time, she didn't continue and went back to find Xia Hua.
"Shushu, you're back. How did you do?" Xia Hua asked as she saw her return.
An Shuyi nodded vigorously, "I sold two saplings, one redwood and one ebony, for one or two hundred coins. Adding that to what I sold before, it's almost two ounces. But I also sold a golden orchid. Guess how much it cost?"
"One hundred taels!" Xia Hua said without hesitation. Seeing her shake her head, she continued, "Five hundred taels."
"Huahua, you guessed right, it's five hundred taels! Now we don't have to worry about not surviving in ancient times," An Shuyi said excitedly.
Xia Hua also felt it was too much. She only earned a little over ten taels of silver from her live stream all morning. Luckily, she could buy things directly at the mall. Otherwise, it would have been a huge loss if she had exchanged it for silver. It wouldn't have been worth it at all.
"Now you can rest assured. From now on, you can frequently find saplings and wildflowers to sell and earn more money."
“Let’s make money together! From now on, when I beat up those unfilial sons, you can livestream from the sidelines, and you’ll definitely make a lot of money.” If it weren’t for the fact that she needed to keep those unfilial sons to haul things, she would have given them a beating when she got back.
Looking at the buckets that were already full, we said, "Let's fill the buckets first, then we need to go back and pack our things. We can talk about making money later."
Xia Hua nodded, took out the buckets that had just been filled with water, and asked her to put them in the warehouse. Soon, both of their buckets were full before they went down the mountain to return.
The two parted ways when they reached the village. When An Shuyi arrived home, the house was almost tidied up. She hurriedly went in to tidy up her own things as well, but after tidying up, she realized that the original owner didn't have many clothes, and most of them were jackets and skirts.
Thinking back to the original owner's memories, the skirts here were quite similar to ancient Hanfu. However, the original owner was only in her thirties and wearing a padded jacket and skirt was a bit too early.
She wrapped several sets of jackets and skirts in a piece of cloth, and also wrapped the close-fitting ones together. Looking around the room, there was nothing else to pack except the clothes. The precious items were put into the storeroom.
In the box next to her, there were several sets of Xiaoqi's clothes, but they were all tops and bottoms, not ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), and they were all patched. She also wrapped them in a piece of cloth.
The grain and daily necessities were all collected by the second son's wife. There shouldn't be much. I brought up the trading system, clicked on the buy section, and hey, the number of things I could buy had increased. Ten more slots were lit up.
Fabric, cooking oil, iron pot, eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs, live chickens, live ducks, live geese, live cows—it seems like she has to do all these things herself. Can't we get her something she doesn't have to lift a finger?
It's good to have fabric. I was just thinking that I didn't want to wear the original owner's clothes anymore. I'll ask Hua Hua tomorrow if she sells any. Now that I have fabric, I can make my own. But I'll also have to ask her to buy some underwear tomorrow. It's not nice to have my bottom feeling cold in the wind.
She opened the rice menu and bought 300 jin (150 kg), and flour and 200 jin (100 kg). Looking at the eggs on the shelf, she bought another 50.
I took these things out of the warehouse and put them in a corner, put the eggs in a basket, and then covered them up. I planned to have my unfilial sons carry them away tomorrow. Suddenly, I remembered that there was a cart at home, but I didn't know if it was still there.
An Shuyi hurried to the backyard. Fortunately, the cart was still there. It was made when the original owner's husband was still alive. It probably couldn't be sold for much money, which is why it survived. Otherwise, it would have been sold by his rebellious sons long ago.
The handcart has two wheels and was used to push grain. It can hold a lot of things. Now we have a means of transportation, and of course, we also have labor.
"Second brother..." he called out, thinking of his second brother who had just returned from fetching water.
That rebellious third son went to his maternal home and hasn't returned yet. He's such a useless piece of trash. It's only an hour's journey, yet it takes him so long.
And the fourth brother, wasn't he supposed to go find the second brother? He hasn't come back yet.
"Mother, what's wrong?" The second son was just about to rest for a while when he heard his mother calling him, so he hurriedly ran to the backyard.
An Shuyi pointed to the cart and said, "Take this cart to the front yard and see if there's anything broken. If not, have Wu put the things on it, and remember to leave room for people to sit."
"Okay, Mother! Do we not need to fetch water anymore?" the second son asked, taking the things off the cart.
"Stop picking! Aren't you tired after picking all day? Hurry up and pull the cart out."
"Okay, Mother!" The second son pulled the cart to the front yard and carefully checked for any loose parts before letting his wife put the things on it.
Standing to the side, An Shuyi looked at him and felt that this son could still be saved. At least he was better than the third son, who was a gambler. The second son used to be an obedient child, but he was cunning and eventually learned to steal.
Seeing that it was almost time, she went back inside and took out the pound of rice she had bought earlier from the storeroom, which added another compartment. Then she bought two more pounds of rice and put them together, and took the basket containing the eggs out with her.
"Second son's wife, come here."
"Mother!" Madam Wu glanced at her husband, then came over trembling.
"Cook all this rice and make sure the family has a good meal. Also, fry ten eggs, do you hear me?" Seeing her like this, An Shuyi was furious.
Whether she hit her or scolded her, why did she act so petty?
"Mother, have all of these been cooked?" After saying this, Madam Wu hurriedly lowered her head, she was so surprised that she did so.
"It's all cooked, hurry up and go, do you want me to cook for you?"
"Yes, yes, Mother, I'll go right away." Seeing her mother-in-law's furious outburst, Wu hurriedly picked up her things and ran to the kitchen.
"Slow down, don't drop the eggs."
"Yes, Mother!"
