Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich

There is sea salt in this place, and there are almost no plants in the place where there is sea salt. It is like a long wasteland, with only a few plants of different colors on the huge land.

Liu Qingcao saw a very familiar grass, which looked very much like the succulents she had raised before, but the biggest difference between it and the succulents was whether they were poisonous or not.

This thing is salthorn grass. It is rarely seen in other prefectures. It grows in heavily salty land. Winter is about to come. The whole plant is no longer green. They are glowing red, which is particularly eye-catching on the endless beach. .

Salthorn grass is poisonous. If used properly, it is also a good medicine. It can also play its role when added to cosmetics. Unfortunately, with the spiritual spring water, the effect of salthorn grass is not enough. I just picked a few seeds. Throw it into space and never look at it again.

Two hours later, Liu Qingcao finally stopped. The leading officer was still following behind him, showing no intention of leaving.

The coastline is very long, and I didn’t walk very far in two hours of walking and stopping. I wanted to walk more, but the sun was so strong that my scalp was numb.

"Brother Chai, aren't you going back?" Liu Qingcao finally couldn't help but speak.

The leading officer followed her all the time, and she couldn't find any chance to do anything else.

There were mountains of vegetables, fruits, and food in the space. There were no wealthy merchants along the coast, and there was an official following closely behind her. She had no way of getting rid of these things.

"I'll go back later. I'm not on duty today, so I came out to relax and relieve the bad energy accumulated over the past few days." The leading officer replied calmly, as if he was teasing himself.

Liu Qingcao didn't ask any questions after hearing this, and walked back with brisk steps. The meaning of the leading officer's words was obvious, but the matter was very difficult. Before she was sure, she would not be brave because of sympathy. Her conscience told her to save her. She is weak, but her reason warns her not to be a holy mother recklessly.

Space is very good, and various medicinal powders have miraculous effects, but they are not without their shortcomings. In the presence of people with strong martial arts skills, the effects of space and medicinal powders will be greatly reduced. This is why she has never agreed to lead the official service.

Ever since he saw her in the grocery store, the leading officer has been convinced of her ability and the group of masters behind her.

But she didn't have any experts to help her. She was alone the whole time, and she couldn't say this yet, nor could she admit what happened at the grocery store.

The leading officer didn't get an answer, so he followed patiently. He had a day off today, so he came to Liu Qingcao Inn early just to hang out in front of her, hoping that she would change her mind.

Talented people have tempers, which is why he hasn't said much.

Returning to the fisherman's courtyard where the carriage was parked, Liu Qingcao was fascinated by the fragrance wafting in the air, and instantly accelerated her pace.

So fragrant, the pure taste of seafood.

The owner of this fisherman's courtyard went fishing today and smelled the smell of seafood. He should be back now, but she didn't know if they were selling it. If so, she would buy some to eat first.

When she was walking on the beach in the morning, she wanted to lure and catch fish in the sea, but the leading officer followed closely, so she never had the chance to do it, so that she didn't even have a bite of fresh fish now.

As soon as he entered the small courtyard, Liu Qingcao saw the woman opening the lid of the pot, and the steam burst out and slowly disappeared into the air. The delicious flavor of the seafood also dispersed with the steaming water mist, which was much better than before. The flavor is even stronger.

"Auntie, uncle is back from fishing?" Liu Qingcao looked away from the stove and looked elsewhere in the yard. Except for a large tank, there was no place to put the catch.

The woman put the lid on the pot, glanced at the speaker, smiled with a smile on her lips, and said with a happy face, "Little girl, they have been back from fishing for a while, but now they go out to deliver fish. , I guess it has been handed over to the shopkeeper of the restaurant in town now."

sold! ?

Liu Qingcao sighed. It was a pity that he couldn't eat seafood today.

"Little girl, it's such a hot day, you go and cool down first, and we'll start dinner when the pot is ready." The woman led the two of them into the main room with loving eyes.

When Liu Qingcao heard that she had something to eat, her disappointed mood suddenly disappeared. She ran to the carriage, selected a box of snacks, put a handful of green vegetables and six pears into a bamboo basket, and carried it into the woman's main room.

"Auntie, you can't eat this meal for free. This is my wish. Auntie, please keep it." Liu Qingcao put the basket in front of the woman and looked at her with a smile.

The woman took one look at the contents of the basket and did not refuse. She took the basket and placed the snacks on the table, then carried the basket outside.

After a while, the woman came in with a plate of pears hanging with water drops, and her rough fingers were washed clean.

"You two guests, let's eat first. I'll cook some vegetables and then we can eat." After saying that, the woman walked out with a smile.

Liu Qingcao looked at the snacks and pears on the table and sighed at the woman's simplicity and kindness.

She didn't like to owe anyone favors, so the woman took out everything to eat together, and she could only take another basket when she left to thank the woman for her hospitality.

A quarter of an hour later, the woman brought a plate of green vegetables to the table, and two people walked in at the courtyard door, talking and laughing as they walked inside.

"Mom, dad and I are back."

A cheerful male voice came from the yard. Liu Qingcao and the leading officer looked at the man who walked in with a smile, their eyes slightly raised.

This is the woman's son, Da Yu, sixteen years old, sunny and cheerful.

"Hey, you didn't leave?" Big Fish showed surprise on his face, and walked quickly towards Liu Qingcao and the other two, looking very excited.

Liu Qingcao nodded slightly and pointed to the snacks on the table, "Eat some snacks first to cushion your stomach."

Hearing this, Da Yu was unreasonable and sat directly on the stool to pick up the snacks and eat them.

"This pastry is so delicious. You must have brought it to me, Sister Qingcao." Big Fish ate the pastry, savoring the taste in his mouth. After eating one piece, he stopped taking any more.

"This pastry won't last for a few days, so it can't be kept for a long time." Seeing that he was reluctant to eat it anymore, Liu Qingcao reminded her, lest it spoil after she left, which would be a pity.

Da Yu had never eaten such exquisite and delicious pastries, so naturally he didn't know that this thing had not been put away. He looked at the pastries on the table hesitantly, and after some entanglement, he stretched out his hand towards the box.

If you don't eat it, it will spoil. If it spoils, it will definitely taste bad. If he eats his portion first, it should be fine!

Liu Qingcao pursed her lips and looked at the big fish opposite with a smile, and suddenly thought of the group of children from Shihe Village.

It has been more than a month since she left Shihe Village. She doesn’t know what’s going on in the village now, nor does she know how Liu Jiangbei is doing, or whether Old Man Niu and Luo Shiyuan have come back...

With her thoughts flying, Liu Qingcao missed the villagers of Shihe Village more and more, but the matter was not finished yet, and she could not just return without success.

After the meal, Liu Qingcao declined the kindness of the leading official and Big Fish, and went to the beach alone to look for opportunities.

No one was following her, and Liu Qingcao was not that timid when doing things. She came to a deep water, took out a fishing net and threw it into the water, and then put the bait in. In less than half a stick of incense, there was a huge movement on the calm sea surface. The sharp corners of the fish's mouth stirred up the water surface, and even attracted giant objects to approach. Liu Qingcao did not dare to wait any longer and directly pulled up the fishing net.

There was a splashing sound, and the fishes felt something was wrong after leaving the sea water, and they began to struggle desperately in the fishing net.

The fishing net was dragged onto the sand, and the seafood in the net became more and more panicked when it came into contact with the dry sand. They jumped, slapped and entangled in it, and the scene was once chaotic.

Liu Qingcao pulled at the fishing net, but found no poisonous fish and shrimps, so he threw them into the sea pond in space.

The seawall circulates and flows, simulating living water. Even if there is no spiritual spring water, these marine products can survive and adapt better.

After more than a dozen fishing nets were lowered in succession, the seawall in the space could no longer fit. Liu Qingcao put away the fishing nets and continued walking forward.

After walking about a mile, another forest appeared behind a dense coconut forest.

On the branches of the trees not far ahead, there are golden-colored, oval-shaped, medium-sized fruits hanging from the branches.

What else could this be but a mango?

Liu Qingcao was so surprised that she ran towards the forest. As she got closer, she could see the fruit clearly.

This mango is similar in shape to the blackjack fruit, but its size is more than half smaller.

She is very lucky to find mangoes here. As for the size and taste, she doesn't care. After all, space can improve fruit trees.

Pick a ripe mango from the tree and peel off the skin expertly.

The mango skin and flesh are separated and easy to peel off. The flesh is juicy, smooth and tender, with moderate sweetness and endless aftertaste. The disadvantage is that the fruit core is huge and the flesh is less.

Most of the mangoes on the tree are empty shells, and the pulp inside has been eaten by birds. The remaining ones can only be picked into half a basket.

Not much, but enough to taste.

After the mangoes were finished, Liu Qingcao took out a shovel and looked for small seedlings around the mango tree to transplant to the land in space.

After planting ten mango saplings in a row, Liu Qingcao changed her target. This is a tropical area. In addition to mango trees and coconut trees, there are also bananas, durians, and jackfruits. However, they are more primitive than mangoes, with small cores, large skins, and thick skins. That being said, the taste is not that good either.

Maybe it's not in season yet or it's overripe, so these fruits taste very bitter.

After wandering in the forest for an hour and a half, and finding many good items, Liu Qingcao did not intend to go further in. This area was full of snakes, insects, rats, and ants. If you were not careful, you would be taken a bite by the poisonous thing that was secretly shrinking. The people would never dare to come in.

When they returned to the fishermen's courtyard along the original route, red clouds hung high in the sky, and many fishermen rushed to their yards. When Liu Qingcao entered the courtyard, he saw only his carriage, but not the leading official's horse.

"Little girl, your elder brother has left. He asked me to bring you a message, saying that he will wait for you at the same place when you arrive in Fucheng." The woman wiped the water on her hands clean and walked over with a smile on her face. .

Liu Qingcao nodded, got into the carriage and took out some food for the woman.

She will not stay here tonight. After these things are given to the woman, she will leave quickly.

The woman didn't want to accept Liu Qingcao's things and kept pushing them away. Liu Qingcao had no choice but to take the things back and took out a piece of broken silver from his sleeve.

Compared with giving things away, money is more attractive to people. The woman looked at the broken silver in Liu Qingcao's hand with embarrassment, and she opened her mouth several times without saying a word of rejection.

Their family is really short of money now. With this small amount of money, they no longer have to worry about Da Yu being taken away by officials and sent to the army.

Before the woman could reach out, Liu Qingcao had already put the silver into her hand.

"Auntie, take this money. We have eaten a lot of your food today, so just treat it as meal money. Auntie, you're welcome."

The woman squeezed the silver in her palm and felt the coldness in her palm. She nodded with red eyes.

After bidding farewell to the woman, Liu Qingcao left the woman's yard in a carriage, but she did not leave too far, but stopped at the place where she found the salthorn grass.

There was still too little sea salt in the grocery store. She didn't plan to sleep tonight and planned to refine the salt essence from the sea water here.

Although you can get water anywhere, the salinity of the seawater is not uniform. There is salthorn grass growing under your feet, indicating that the seawater in this area has a higher salt content than other places.

The sea salt sold in Haizhou Fucheng has thick particles and a slightly bitter taste. Although it is edible, it is not good enough. If you want to get purer sea salt, the purification process is essential.

With the existing technology, it is difficult and troublesome to turn sea salt into pure sea salt. If you just want to get refined sea salt that is slightly inferior to pure sea salt, don't worry so much.

Liu Qingcao introduced seawater into the space and began to boil coarse salt.

She had plant ash and sand and gravel, and repeatedly filtered out the basic impurities in the sea salt. Liu Qingcao began to add ground soy milk to the coarse salt. The soy milk was put into the pot, and a layer of dirty scum floated on the surface of the pot. She used a bamboo spoon to Skim off the foam, boil the salt water into a paste, add soy milk again and boil it into a paste, scoop it into a cotton bag with a spoon and filter out the salt brine.

After the salt brine is filtered, the sea salt in the cotton bag will be a treasure in the world that even rich people may not be able to buy.

More than half a month later...

The moon was sparse, the shadows of the trees were dancing, and the cool sea breeze blew up the clothes of the people on the beach, making her suddenly shiver.

"The temperature has dropped..."

Liu Qingcao returned to the space very quickly and put a thin jacket on her cold body.

When the coat was put on, she was suddenly startled.

Haizhou Fucheng belongs to the tropical zone, and even in winter, the temperature will not be so low.

Liu Qingcao looked at the dark night sky with some worry. For more than half a month, she had been using seawater to purify sea salt, and she didn't know much about the changes outside.

She really didn't know when the temperature had cooled down.
