Chapter 14 Princess Tomb

Today is Friday, and I have to go to school all morning tomorrow. I took the time to go to Taoyuan at noon, picked a dozen loofahs and put them in the warehouse, leaving five loofahs to raise seeds. In the afternoon, the loofah vines produced more than a dozen small loofahs. It was indeed very productive.

.

When I got home in the evening, I brought two pieces of peach cake to my sisters. Qin Huairu made an agreement with the two children last night to only eat one piece a day. But the two sisters were still very happy today.

I found a secret corner, entered the Taoyuan space, and saw a lush and vibrant scene. Just looking at it made me feel comfortable.

The loofah vine collected a total of forty-two one-pound loofahs, and the five giant vines also collected more than ten kilograms of seeds. There is no shortage of loofah and winter melon seeds for the time being. We still need to leave some open space and only plant one acre of loofah.

After walking around until six o'clock, Jia Yi went to the light film and took a look. After confirming that no one was there, Jia Yi came out and went home.

Time passed by at noon on Saturday, and Jia Yi sent Sophora japonica dang home for dinner.

He told the sisters to play by themselves and not run too far. Then Jia Yi carried a small schoolbag and an empty bag and went out.

Taoyuan spring water is really useful. Jia Yi has become stronger now. He can carry seventy kilograms with one hand without any effort, and he has also grown taller. Well, it can also be used by his family. I don’t know if it can cure Jia Zhang’s drug addiction. Go back

Just try it.

We took a half-hour bus ride to Princess Tomb, which was a famous pigeon market in later generations. Of course, I knew this from novels, and I didn’t know much about it.

Jia Yi looked for a place with a lot of people. After turning a corner, there were many people setting up street stalls. When he got closer, he saw that almost no one was talking loudly. They were all communicating in low voices. Moreover, the people here were very alert. If something was wrong, they would

He will immediately grab his things and run away.

And this place is very different from the little pigeon market near the steel rolling mill. You can find chicken, duck, fish and meat, and there are also people selling food stamps.

Without looking any further, I found a place with few people and put some loofah into a big bag. I found an empty seat, took a loofah and put it on the bag without shouting. I waited for the rich people to come to the door.

Luffa is not like winter melon, which can be stored for one year. Of course, due to storage costs and food shortages, not many people store winter melon now, and even if they do, ordinary people can't afford it.

Luffa cannot be stored and can only be produced in special places. Very few appear on the market. Now, unlike in later generations, there are greenhouses, so you can eat whatever you want at any time.

So many people saw it, but no one came to ask about the price. After all, everyone knew that the price must be high even if they didn't ask. They just came to take a look.

After half an hour, Jia Yi almost wanted to leave. After all, no one came to ask and there were a lot of new things to see.

Fortunately, someone finally came to the stall.

"Bangge, it's really you. You've grown taller. I almost didn't recognize you. Why are you here..."

"Lou Xiao'e..." Jia Yi blurted out.

"What are you talking about? People don't know how to call me. Call me aunt." Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes.

"Well, I'd better call you Sister Lou. And I changed my name. My name is Jia Yi now, you can call me Xiao Yi."

Lou Xiao'e thought of something and nodded, "Alright, Xiao Yi."

"Xiao Yi, you are selling loofah. How can there be loofah at this time?" Lou Xiao'e asked in surprise.

"Actually, you can grow vegetables in winter in some specific places, such as hot springs. Also, have you heard of Zhao Hongjun..."

"I've never heard of him, who is he?" Lou Xiao'e asked doubtfully.

"He invented the vegetable plastic greenhouse, which allows people to grow vegetables normally in winter." Jia Yi introduced calmly.

"real…"

"That's what happened..." At this time, a man in his fifties came out and said.

"Dad, how did you know?" Lou Xiao'e said, hugging her father.

Of course there is, but now the technology is not mature enough and it has not been promoted well, so I am afraid there are not many people building greenhouses.

"Can I call you Xiaoyi?"

"Can."

"I want all these loofahs. How much do they cost?"

Jia Yi thinks that Father Lou's waving gesture is so handsome, and he has real money-making ability. It's true that "if a family has a lot of money, everything can be done according to the heart". I also want, well, I have Taoyuan in my hand, and I have everything.

"It's very expensive, 50 cents a piece. Forty pieces in total, 20 yuan." Jia Yi looked at Lou's father worriedly.

"It's not expensive, it's not expensive. Haha. Help me carry it to the car." Father Lou waved his hand nonchalantly.

"Oh well…"

With the twenty yuan in hand, there was also a business card from Lou's father with the address of Lou's family on it. Lou's father also asked Jia Yi to visit him when he was free.

Jia Yi looked weird. Father Lou must have thought wrong.

Sure enough, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help it in the Lou family's car.

"Dad, why are you so nice to Xiao Yi today?"

"Whether it's hot spring vegetables or greenhouse vegetables, ordinary people can't see it. There must be someone behind Xiao Yi. Showing kindness to him can only be beneficial. This is business, and this is what you need to learn now."

"The current direction of the wind is a bit wrong. One more friend and one more path. Maybe one day I can rely on this to tide over the difficulties."

"Dad, I understand." Lou Xiao'e looked thoughtful.

It seems that through the Xu Damao incident, Lou's father also saw Lou Xiao'e's problem, so he took his daughter out to socialize with her these days and teach her experience.

"Besides, I won't lose money if I buy it. Loofah is a rare thing now. It will be a favor to give to friends later. This is far more than the money I spent."

Lou Xiao'e suddenly realized it and said that she had learned it. Sure enough, old ginger is still hotter.

Fortunately, Lou's father was thinking about something and didn't hear what his daughter said clearly, otherwise Lou Xiao'e's beating would have been inevitable.

After selling the loofah, Jia Yi had nothing to do but had thirty yuan in his pocket. He didn't know why, but he just wanted to spend it.

I found a place where no one was around, and my spiritual body entered the space. When the sunflowers matured, I quickly collected them.

I planted another seven acres of land. After all, the Chinese New Year is the peak season for melon seeds, so I don’t have to worry about selling them. It doesn’t matter if I buy more.

There are still four hundred kilograms left.

Without seasoning, I directly simulated frying the melon seeds in an iron pot, which shrunk and wasted due to lack of skill at the beginning. In the end, I got 350 kilograms of cooked melon seeds.

The small book bag was half full. When I came out, I realized that I didn't bring anything to put it in. Do I have to go home to get it?

Suddenly I looked at the big tree roots at my feet, retracted them into the space, and tried to directly control the deformation of the tree roots. No, I couldn't. It seemed that the retracted roots could not be directly controlled.

I manipulated the stone to turn it into a sharp knife, kept adjusting and polishing it. Finally, I made a wooden bowl. When the melon seeds were filled with melon seeds, they were about half a kilogram flush with the mouth of the bowl. Looking at this wooden bowl, I can only describe it in one word: ugly.

Jia Yi could only keep comforting himself, as long as it works.

You can't set up a stall to sell melon seeds. Jia Yi had a schoolbag hanging on his chest. He opened the zipper of the schoolbag and the faint scent of melon seeds spread out. When he saw the rich people buying meat and eggs, Jia Yi went over and pulled it.

Opening the bag, Suicide asked if he wanted melon seeds.

Nine out of ten people like this will buy it.

Jia Yi's first customer was at a meat stall, an old lady dressed in clean and ordinary clothes. Jia Yi saw with his own eyes that she bought five kilograms of meat for a large sum of money. The price of meat in the supply and marketing cooperative was cheap, but

You need a ticket. Everyone has a monthly quota. There is really not enough food, so most rich people come to the pigeon market to buy.

So Jia Yi came closer and asked if he wanted melon seeds.

"How much does it cost per catty? How much does it cost per catty..."

"It's too expensive, the supply and marketing cooperative only costs fifty cents." The old lady shook her head and said.

"You can't say that, the supply and marketing cooperative has purchase restrictions... you can't buy it even if you have money."

"Yes, then let's get ten kilograms."

At this moment, Jia Yi was dumbfounded. When he saw an abandoned small yard not far away, his eyes lit up.

"Grandma, I only have a few kilograms here, and I'm hiding the rest. How about we go to the tree and I'll get it for you."

The old lady agreed. After all, Jia Yi looked young and posed no threat.
