The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 919 Little Boy Collects Huge Money
Master Ma used the tools on the table to remove the patina on the surface of the stone bit by bit. The translucent stone gradually turned into milky white, and then into bluish-white jade.

It's a pity that there is a crack in this piece of jade, which reduces its value.

"Although it's not the best, the quality of the jade is pretty good. It can make a good handle piece. This crack can also be avoided, turning waste into treasure."

Master Ma looked at the piece of jade and already had a design in his mind. However, the texture of this piece of jade could not be compared with the other pieces, so Master Ma did not regard it as the first choice for creation. After taking a look at it, he let it go. On to the shelf next to it.

With the help of Master Ma, Bai Meixi returned to the town near HT City. In total, she had not been here for half a month.

When passing by the small river, she paid special attention to the stones beside the water and found that all the beautiful-colored stones were gone.

Bai Meixi couldn't help but chuckle to herself, feeling that the children here were too diligent and actually picked up all the good stones along the river.

Bai Meixi found the little boy's home. He had collected a lot of stones and piled a hill at the entrance of the yard, which even took up more than half of the pigsty at home.

Bai Meixi saw that he was sorting the pebbles and putting them in different containers according to size and color.

"Silly boy, how can you sell this stone for money? Do you really think our stones can produce jade?"

"That's right, that person must have left you a radio because he felt sorry for you last time. He definitely won't take advantage of you again this time. I think you'd better not pick it up. If you have the time, you might as well help your father with the work. Woolen cloth."

People around him were laughing at Hanwa, thinking that he had been deceived by Bai Meixi, and encouraged the children around him to pick up stones. Now the children around him hate him, and even adults are unwilling to let their children follow him in mischief. .

"That sister said she would come, and she will definitely come. I want to exchange a camel with her so that I can deliver goods to the city in the future."

The little boy looked very serious. His family had always been poor, and even the sheep were raised for others. If Bai Meixi could give him a camel, he could help deliver goods to people nearby, and he would be able to do more in the future. Earn some money and treat your father.

"Exchange camels! Hahaha! If these broken stones could be exchanged for camels, we people here would have become rich a long time ago."

The neighbors teased the little boy a few more words before leaving. His life had been very difficult these days. He was laughed at by his neighbors every day. Even his own father thought he was fooling around and even wanted to buy that small radio and give it to him. Change some pieces of fabric at home to celebrate the New Year.

"Thank you for believing in me, sister. If I say I will come back, I will definitely come back."

When Bai Meixi saw those people leaving, she walked up to the little boy. She reached out and touched his head, but the little boy who had been a determined and stubborn boy just now started to cry.

"Sister, I thought you weren't coming. They all called me a liar."

The little boy cried so wronged that he threw himself into Bai Meixi's arms. His voice gradually became choked with sobs, and in the end he couldn't even speak intermittently. He just kept pointing at the stones.

Bai Meixi walked over and took a look, and found that the little boy was very meticulous in his work, and most of the items were in good condition. Bai Meixi planned to buy this batch at the price of 1 yuan per catty at the Hotan Jade Market. stone.

The little boy is busy picking up stones every day. These stones weigh several hundred kilograms, which is equivalent to a total of 523 yuan in money. "523 yuan, sister, are these stones worth so much?" The little boy's eyes widened. He originally just wanted to exchange for a camel, but he didn't expect that these stones are worth the income of the people here for nearly two years. , making him want to go to HT City immediately to buy a camel and bring it back.

"The quality of the things you picked up and the careful division of labor are indeed worth so much money. If you work hard in the future, you can earn more, but don't stay by the river day and night. My sister will give you You want to make a good living so that your family can live a good life."

Bai Meixi looked at the little boy's hands that were covered with blood blisters, and felt heartbroken. This money was not easy for the little boy to earn, and it was truly hard-earned money.

Bai Meixi put the money in the little boy's hand, and took out some milk candies and snacks for him from the space, asking him to wait at home. She would come back later if the little boy wanted to use it. She can also exchange money for other things for him.

"Sister, can I exchange it for a camel? They said a camel costs a lot of money."

The little boy looked at Bai Meixi expectantly. He didn't know the specific value of a camel. He only heard people say that the price of a camel was several hundred yuan. The money used to be astronomical to him, and they could not afford it in their lifetime.

"This money is enough to buy two camels, but I don't think you should be delivering goods back and forth at such a young age. My sister will try to find a better job for you."

Bai Meixi felt that the little boy's living environment was too poor. The house leaked both air and rain, which was not conducive to his father's recovery. If he could move to HT City, both the living conditions and the medical conditions would be much better.

"Sister, I listen to you. I will tell others now that these stones can be exchanged for money."

The little boy ran away very excitedly. Bai Meixi put the stones into the space, selected some in good condition, and gave them to Master Ma for appraisal.

As soon as these cold stones were placed in Master Ma's hands, he couldn't help but frowned, not liking these patterned stones.

"Comrade Xiaobai, you must have picked up these stones from the river. Look at these, there is still moss on them."

Master Ma feels that the probability of finding good products from stones picked up by the river is very small, just like panning for gold in the river, you may not be able to find a good piece of jade in a year.

The piece Bai Meixi picked up last time was her luck, and it would be extremely difficult to encounter it again.

"Comrade Xiaobai, there are a lot of materials and seeds by the river, but they are small in size and the possibility of encountering good materials is also small. If you want to collect more, you still have to go to the mine, which is safer. "

Master Ma unpacked the piece of seed material. The quality of these things was indeed average. Most of them were quartz. Two of them contained jade, but there were also a lot of white fog patterns. They were inferior jade and had little collection value.

"Although this batch of materials is a bit inferior, in the past it was still possible to make silver hairpins and other decorations. However, these small parts are not worth making carefully. Most of the children in our carving factory can also make them."

Master Ma would not spend energy on such worthless jade. The materials Bai Meixi brought back this time were mediocre and could only be regarded as products for apprentices to practice.
