Chapter 16

Xie Zhan had to admit that Mingxiu was right. Sometimes, no matter how reasonable they were, if they really encountered someone who was unreasonable and came to make trouble, for a family like theirs, it would be a scholar who encountered a soldier, and they would not be able to explain why.

After Ming's father's persuasion, the land deed was finally approved.

A lot of gift money was spent, and Mingxiu made a lot of money last time.

"Dad, let's go up the mountain to dig some mushrooms and sell them in the town."

The weather has been humid recently, so there should be a lot of mushrooms on the mountain. In addition, Mingxiu has noticed that because of the Ergouzi incident on the mountain, the villagers are not going into the mountain very much.

This is a good thing for Mingxiu.

His family knew his own affairs, so Ming's father immediately agreed to Mingxiu's request.

There are not only mushrooms and wild products on the mountain, but also a lot of wild vegetables and fruits. Mingxiu specially picked out some good-quality ones and packed them away, planning to sell them together when he went to town to sell mushrooms.

"What are you worried about after digging all these things?" Xie Zhan was puzzled. Although he had taken care of people's livelihood, he didn't know much about people's income other than farming. What was accessible to the people and what could be sold?

Not sure.

Isn't it possible to do all these things?

"It would be a bit of a loss if we went to restaurants and inns at a certain time to sell things."

Mingxiu sighed. Ever since she went to the restaurant to sell mushrooms and wild vegetables for the second time, the restaurant had begun to lower prices.

After all, their family does not have a fixed supply, let alone support the needs of the restaurant, and those things are not necessary, so the shopkeepers or managers in the restaurant naturally take care of whatever they can.

And Mingxiu had no way to resist, otherwise he wouldn't have wanted it.

To the other party, this is not a big deal, but if the Ming family has no income and no output from the fields, then they really have nothing to eat.

Therefore, Mingxiu felt that this could not continue. According to this trend, sooner or later, no matter how frequently they went to the mountains and provided more supplies to the restaurant, they would not be able to take care of their own lives.

"Do you want to open a shop?" Xie Zhan thought for a while and felt that this method is not bad. If the Ming family has a shop, they will have their own source of livelihood. In this way, even if they do not farm and only do reselling business, their life will be easy.

I can survive.

"Do you know how much money it costs to open a shop?"

Xie Zhan's words were like why not eat minced meat? How could they buy a shop with their current family background?

Everyone knows that being able to open a shop in a town is a good thing, but whether you can do so is another matter.

Although the prices in the town are not high, they are not affordable for the Ming family.

Xie Zhan sneered, "In that case, what else can you do now?"

The best way to survive the family's livelihood by refusing the restaurant's price cut was to open a shop, but now Mingxiu said that this would not work.

"We can go to the town to set up a stall." Mingxiu blinked. Although she was worried, her plan in her heart gradually became clear. "I have found out clearly that the only tax charged for setting up a stall in the town is for those who open a shop.

Half of it, as long as we go early and get a good place, the money will come naturally."

"This is also a way." Xie Zhan nodded slightly. Why didn't he think of this? "Since we want to set up a stall, I'm afraid these things are not enough."

Naturally, someone will collect these things if you take them to a restaurant, but if you want to set up a stall, you need more, otherwise you won't be able to support a stall.

And since we are going to set up a stall in the town, it is natural for the whole family to go there. When the time comes, it will cost money to eat in the town. If there is not enough food, it is impossible to say that the profit is not enough to spend.

Although there is still a lot that Xie Zhan doesn't understand, he can still settle this account.

"I'm going to the mountains with my father these days to get some more things back. You can stay at home with my mother."

Xie Zhan knew that the companionship Mingxiu mentioned was asking him to help protect Ming's mother and take care of the family.

"Don't worry."

Mingxiu nodded slightly and said no more.

There are indeed treasures on the mountain, not only the wild vegetables known at this time, but also vegetables that no one knows now but were very familiar with in the previous life.

For example, tomatoes and peppers.

When Mingxiu saw these two plants on the mountain, she thought she had made a mistake. The knowledge from her previous life told her that these two plants were imported and not found locally, but now there are...

Although it is not as full and bright as in her previous life, Mingxiu is sure that she saw it right.

"Xiu'er!" Ming's father saw Mingxiu reaching out to pick the red fruit, and his face changed greatly, "Don't touch that! It's poisonous!"

"Ah?" Mingxiu glanced at his father and then at Chili Pepper not far away from him, feeling a little confused.

Why hasn't she heard that there are poisonous varieties of peppers?

Ming's father pulled Mingxiu away with an ugly look on his face and said to her: "There used to be children who were ignorant and looked at the bright red fruits and thought they were delicious. After eating them, their mouths hurt so much and their lips became swollen." That's what happened.

What happened to Ming's father when he was a child? Since then, everyone has known that this kind of fruit is poisonous. Even if someone encounters it, they will stay away from it. "It took a long time for it to wear off, and I am very afraid of people."

He was afraid that Mingxiu would also look at these bright red ones and eat them, which would cause trouble.

Although the poison is not fatal, it is still very uncomfortable.

Mingxiu suddenly realized that the swelling was probably because some of the children were allergic to chili peppers, but it also meant that the chili peppers were of good quality. Although they looked a little shriveled, they were not a problem.

"Dad, these are not poisonous. These are ingredients, not fruits."

Ignoring Ming's father's obstruction, she picked a small amount and put it into her backpack.

Mingxiu knew that Mingfu would not let go if he had not tried it, so she planned to cook something for Mingfu to try after she went back.

Seeing that she had no intention of selling it, Ming's father was relieved. Eating these things would only cause a soreness in the mouth. Since Mingxiu wanted to try it, let her try it. If she knew it would hurt, she would not make a fuss.

I want it now.

After Mingxiu picked peppers, Ming's father saw that she picked some equally bright tomatoes and said nothing more.

The same thing means tasting both things, let’s go together.
