Chapter 7

The siblings thanked Grandma Liu. Seeing that Grandma Liu was struggling to carry the basket, Lin Xiaoman grabbed the basket and said, "Grandma Liu, I am strong, so let me carry it."

Grandma Liu wanted to say that she could still persevere, but it could be seen that Lin Xiaoman was carrying two large baskets of mushrooms and was still walking fast like a normal person, so she couldn't show her strength.

On the way, chatting with Grandma Liu, Grandma Liu asked, "Why are you dressed like this? Are you from any ethnic group?"

Lin Xiaoman remembered what the boss who sold the sausages said yesterday, "We are part of the theater troupe over there, and we came here in a hurry, so we didn't have time to change our clothes."

"Theatrical troupe? Hehe, you kid is so funny. You mean the filming base over there, right?" Grandma Liu was very amused.

Lin Xiaoman thought that the boss seemed to be talking about filming, so he nodded, "Yes, filming. Hehe, I was wrong."

"Where are your two adults? Why don't you let the two of you come to the city?"

Speaking of family members, Lin Xiaoman sighed, "Last year Dilong turned over and his parents were gone. We didn't want to starve to death, so we came out to find a way to survive."

Grandma Liu's eyes turned red when she heard that, "There are no other relatives?"

Lin Erhu pursed his mouth, "Drought this year, my grandparents are afraid that we will eat too much, so we will be separated after harvesting the food."

"Your grandma is really not human. They waited to finish all the housework before separating you?"

Both Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu nodded in agreement, Lin Erhu wiped his eyes, "My grandma also took all of my mother's dowry and gave us sixty catties of food, and then rushed back to the half-collapsed old house .”

Grandma Liu was annoyed when she heard that, "I'm not afraid of rain and thunder striking them to death."

This time, the eyes of the two children are full of love and affection, and I want to help them sell mushrooms more expensively.

While talking, the three came to the community where Grandma Liu lived. Grandma Liu took out a tablet and shook it, and the small door next to it opened.

Following Grandma Liu into the community, Grandma Liu waved to the front, "Old Zhang, Lao Xu, here."

Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu saw a dozen or so women who were about the same age as Grandma Liu walking towards them, and quickly surrounded the three of them.

These women look richer than the rich ladies they have seen in the city, and some of them are thinner, and their spirits are stronger than the women in their 30s they have seen over there. She still wears rouge and powder, but it looks much better than the dead white blood red of the lady in the city over there.

Thinking of the people they met here in the past two days, it seems that most of them don't see any sorrow on their faces. Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu feel envious. There will be a smile on the face.

One of the chubby-looking women was holding an unknown object in her hand, "Old Liu, my family's scale was taken away by my kid, so I borrowed an electronic scale from the fruit shop over there. You don’t have to settle accounts, it’s convenient.”

"Hey, it has to be Lao Xu, he is so reliable in his work."

Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu stared at the electronic scale in Grandma Xu's hand, but they didn't see anything like a scale.

Next, Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu didn't need to greet each other. Grandma Liu asked everyone to put mushrooms in their pockets and bring them to her for weighing.

Stick mushrooms cost 25 pounds per catty, and pine tree mushrooms cost [-] pounds per catty. They were quickly sold out, and they waited in line for Grandma Liu to weigh them.

Grandma Liu asked Lin Xiaoman, "Girl, do you have a payment code?"

Lin Xiaoman shook his head in a daze, and Grandma Liu sighed. The two children were very poor at first glance, and it was not surprising that they didn't have a mobile phone.Let her be a good person to the end.

She ran to the security room next door to borrow a pen and paper, and every time she sold a mushroom, she would write down the type, weight and price on the paper, and then let someone scan her payment code, and she would bring the siblings after the mushrooms were sold. Go to the bank to withdraw money.

Some people also asked about the price of Ganoderma lucidum and Hericium erinaceus, but the siblings didn't know the price, so they just asked the grandma to give them whatever they wanted.

But these grandmas are not good at taking advantage of their siblings. Grandma Xu took some cubes and ordered them, and then handed them to her siblings, "It says on it, the wild Ganoderma lucidum you pick is so big that it costs [-] to [-] yuan per plant." There are three plants here, one for five hundred, one for one thousand, and one for two thousand, shall I give you three thousand and five lines?"

"Old Xu, why are you buying so many Ganoderma lucidum all at once?"

"This is not my old Zheng. A while ago, he said that he wanted to make health-preserving wine. He went to the pharmacy and bought two wild Ganoderma lucidum, but when he found someone, they were all raised at home. He was so angry. Snake wine. Oh, my scalp tingles when I think about it, and I just bought it for him when I encountered a wild ganoderma lucidum today, so that he won’t come back with a snake someday.”

"How about you, old boy, old boy, your old Zheng is too funny." The people next to him laughed.

Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu opened their mouths wide, they still haven't recovered from the price offered by Grandma Xu.

According to the comparison they made with copper money and paper money yesterday, one penny is equivalent to one yuan, so isn't three thousand and five thousand five hundred cash?That's two and a half silver.

They only went up the mountain for half a day, and they earned three or two and a half, and picking mountain goods was too much money.

Lin Erhu nodded hurriedly, "All right, I'll pick it later and send it to grandma."

One sentence made several grandmas laugh again, "You kid really knows how to do business, your grandma Xu's house can't make so much wine."

After Grandma Liu heard the reminder of the payment of [-] yuan, Lin Xiaoman also stuffed the mallet wrapped in leaves into Grandma Xu's cloth pocket, "Grandma Xu, this is the mallet we dug on the mountain, you Take it home and drink with you."

Grandma Xu didn't know what a mallet was, so she didn't take it seriously, she just smiled and thanked her.

The monkey head was also bought by a grandma Zhao, totaling two catties, and grandma Zhao gave 200 yuan.

When the mushrooms were all sold out, I did the calculations with the bookkeeping paper, and the sale was a total of 200 yuan and [-] yuan. This time, the siblings were so beautiful that they could only giggle.

I followed Grandma Liu to the bank's ATM to withdraw money, watched as Grandma Liu stuffed a piece of money into a strange thing clamped in the wall, and tapped on the strange thing, and a wad of money was thrown out of the strange thing. Spit it out, and the siblings stared straight at the sight.

The bank here is also amazing.

Grandma Liu gave Lin Xiaoman the money for selling mushrooms, and Lin Xiaoman refunded the 100 yuan that Grandma Liu bought for mushrooms, "Today I have to thank Grandma Liu, these mushrooms should be honored by the younger generation."

Grandma Liu refused to accept, Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu dropped the money and ran away, Grandma Liu yelled twice from behind, she could only shake her head helplessly, "You two are so sensible, how can grandma be so cruel?"

With the more than 5000 yuan, Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu always felt that it was not safe, and it was getting late, so they decided to send the money home first, and come to buy it tomorrow.

It was slightly dark, and both sides of the road were lit up. When I looked up, I saw the ordinary pillars in the daytime. At this time, there were lights on them.

There are also those shops and houses that are brightly lit. The colorful lights illuminate the street more beautifully than in the daytime. The eyes of the siblings are not enough.

And during the daytime, there are night markets on both sides of the road, selling all kinds of food and clothing.

There are too many things to dazzle.
