Space farmer girl: I hoarded food and raised cubs in ancient times

Chapter 31 31 Everyone went into the mountains to dig ginseng
Although she can increase her strength by using her powers and do some physical work, she will also feel tired.

You can save energy by using animals, so why not use them?
When they arrived at the livestock market, Shen Shuangshuang quickly found the donkey he wanted.

After some haggling, he finally bought a donkey for ten taels of silver.

The store also gave me a rein and helped me to hitch the cart to the donkey.

Shen Shuangshuang got on the cart and drove the donkey away.

Along the way, the mood was very beautiful.

I thought to myself that I now own a car.

Driving the donkey cart to Dongcheng, Shen Shuangshuang started selling fruit again.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is getting closer and closer, and the fruits on the trees are almost gone.

Shen Shuangshuang planned to sell out all the fruits today and not sell any more in the future.

Everyone learned that Shen Shuangshuang was here to sell fruit for the last time, so they purchased a lot.

As a result, even though Shen Shuangshuang had a lot of fruit in stock, they were all sold out quickly.

After selling out the fruit, Shen Shuangshuang quickly left Dongcheng.

First, he went to the Huichun Hall to get medicine for his mother-in-law, and then he went to the house of Mason Zhao, whom Master Liu had introduced to him before, to ask him to grind stones.

When Shen Shuangshuang left, Zhao Shijiang was at home.

When he learned that Shen Shuangshuang was looking for him to make stone mills, Zhao Shijiang readily quoted the price.

"If Mrs. Shen's house has stone, I will come directly to your door to build it for you. It will take two days at most, and you don't have to worry about food. You can just pay 250 Wen."

"If not, I have ready-made stone mills here."

"You give me six hundred coins, and I'll send you a donkey cart, and you can pull it back yourself."

Where does Shen Shuangshuang's house have any kind of stone?
Although you can quarry stone in the mountains, quarrying is not that simple.

"I'll buy the stone mill directly. How about you give me 550 Wen?" Shen Shuangshuang said.

Zhao Shijiang looked embarrassed.

"Quarrying and transporting rocks is not an easy job. 550 yuan is a bit low," he said.

"Let's see, Mrs. Shen, you were introduced by Master Liu. If you give me 560 yuan, we won't continue to bargain."

"Sure!" Shen Shuangshuang agreed after seeing the sincere look on Zhao Shijiang's face.

Everyone said that this job was taken, and forty coins were lost in one go. If we talk about it again, we probably won't be able to talk about it anymore, and it will hurt the peace.

Shen Shuangshuang paid.

Stonemason Zhao called his son over, and together they lifted the stone mill into the donkey cart.

Shen Shuangshuang climbed onto the donkey cart and drove to the carpenter's workshop.

I asked shopkeeper Li to buy the accessories for the stone mill, and bought five wooden frames suitable for making tofu frames.

Time passed quickly, and it was almost noon again.

Shen Shuangshuang drove the donkey cart to the grain store and bought twenty kilograms of soybeans, and then bought some brine and filter cloth and gauze.

I wanted to buy some more rice and noodles, but I thought the stone mill was too heavy and was afraid it would be too hard for the donkey, so I gave up.

Anyway, now that I have a stone mill at home, I can find someone in the village to buy wheat.

When the time comes, you can grind it with a stone and you can eat the flour yourself. The bran can also be used to feed the donkeys.

After leaving the city, Shen Shuangshuang hummed a song and drove the donkey cart home.

Their family's life is getting better day by day.

Returning to Dahe Village, I met the villagers again.

The villagers were very surprised to see Shen Shuangshuang driving a donkey cart, which was also loaded with stone mills and many other things.

Shen Shuangshuang also thought of an excuse and said that she had a dream from her father-in-law a few days ago, saying that there was ginseng in the mountains.

Then I picked ginseng and went to the drug store to sell it for a lot of money.

And Mrs. Shen saw that the money on her legs and the things on her car were all spent on selling ginseng.

The villagers were stunned when they heard this. They asked Shen Shuangshuang where he dug the ginseng, and they were envious of the Shen family's fortune.How could Shen Shuangshuang not know what the people in the village were thinking?
He roughly described what Shen told him before.

Ginseng is so easy to dig. Her mother-in-law has been collecting medicinal herbs in the mountains for more than [-] years, but she found that one ginseng.

Of course, it was impossible for her to say this.

It didn't matter to her that the people in the village were willing to give it a try.

When she got home, as Shen Shuangshuang expected, Shen was shocked by Shen Shuangshuang's "generous gesture".

"You - why did you buy so many things?!" Shen pointed at the donkey and the things on the donkey cart, almost out of breath.

Her legs don't hurt so much now, and she doesn't want to lie in bed all the time. She can rest against the wall behind the sill during the day.

When the light outside is good and she is in good spirits, she can still do some embroidery work.

Facing her mother-in-law's slightly accusatory tone, Shen Shuangshuang was not angry, but smiled.

"Don't worry, Mom. Nothing is bought randomly."

"This donkey can help our family work and pull carts in the future. I bought all the other things to make tofu."

"How much work can our family have? If you buy this beast, you still have to feed it." Mrs. Shen said with a bitter face.I finally realized that I had been tricked by my daughter-in-law.

"Oh, mom, don't worry." Shen Shuangshuang comforted with a smile.

"How much can it eat?"

"In the future, when people from the village come to borrow stone mills, we won't charge any money, just some wheat bran. Just give it the wheat bran to eat."

"Also, when our family makes tofu from now on, we will also give him the okara. If he is alone, he won't be able to finish it all!"

Shen Shuangshuang said as he took down the things from the donkey cart.

When it's your turn to take out the stone mill components, directly fill up the power before taking the stone mill off the donkey cart.

When Shen saw this, she was shocked.

"Stop it now. How can you move that stone mill by yourself? I'll go to your Aunt Wang's house later and see if your Uncle Wang is at home. If you are at home, ask him to help you install the stone mill." He said .

"Oh, why bother with that? I can do it alone!" Shen Shuangshuang said.

As he spoke, he continued to remove the second stone grinding component.

Mrs. Shen was stunned.

Why hadn't she noticed before that her daughter-in-law was so strong?

Well, because my daughter-in-law was mentally ill and couldn't do her job well, no one at home arranged for her to do things.

After unloading the donkey cart, Shen Shuangshuang unloaded the cart and pulled the donkey to tie it up.

Then go to the kitchen to cook.

Because I am quite busy, today’s meal is more casual.

After the meal, Shen Shuangshuang made medicine for Mr. Shen.

After waiting for Mr. Shen to drink the medicine, he found a utility room to put it away.

She planned to convert the utility room into a mill.

At this time, Aunt Wang and some aunts and ladies came together.

It turned out that everyone heard that the Shen family bought a stone mill and a donkey and came to watch the fun.

"Oh, Miss Shen, please tell us quickly, where did you dig that ginseng?" The eldest lady asked Shen Shuangshuang excitedly.

The people who followed also looked at Shen Shuangshuang with burning eyes.

Shen Shuangshuang told the truth as before.

After receiving the news, the aunts and ladies asked about Shen Shuangshuang's future help, and then left in a hurry.

Only Aunt Wang stayed until the end.

"You have to work hard to make this stone mill by yourself. When your uncle comes back later, I will ask him to come over and help you make it." Aunt Wang said.

As she spoke, Aunt Wang's eyes followed the aunts and ladies who were leaving.
