Chapter 10 Making Money (Part [-])
Ask for favorites, recommend! ! ! !There are still four shifts, in the morning and afternoon.

For the rest of the time, Yi Xue also dug up some wild vegetables seriously, and suddenly she had another idea.

"Erya, Sanya, come here and see what this is," Yi Xue shouted in surprise.

Erya and Sanya ran over in a hurry, and saw their eldest sister throw out a few purple, oblate things that looked like roots.

"Sister, what is this?" Erya asked suspiciously, she had never seen it before.

Yi Xue smiled in her heart, but she couldn't tell the truth, "I don't know, let's take it back and see if we can eat it."

Putting five sweet potatoes into a basket, the three of them walked towards home while talking.

When they arrived at the door of the house, they heard someone talking. The three of them leaned against the fence and heard their mother begging.

"Uncle, please allow me a few more days, I will find a way to pay you back," Zhang said helplessly.

Are you in debt?
Yi Xue walked in with her younger sisters, Mrs. Zhang looked at the uncle of the Guo family, and then at the three daughters, "Uncle, give me a few days, we won't renege on our debts."

Uncle Guo is over 40 years old, with a warm and angry face, "Mr. Zhang, this money must be exchanged. My son is still waiting to go to school. I will give you three days, otherwise I will take your daughter as the top."

After speaking, he walked out angrily.

Yi Xue knew that when he was sick, he borrowed [-] Wen from Uncle Guo to sell the medicine, and now he came to him.However, Yi Xue despises Uncle Guo's behavior, and it is only natural to pay back the debt, but he just called his mother Zhang, which seems very rude.

In rural areas, it is generally polite to call someone sister-in-law, sister, or his aunt, and it is an insult to call someone by their first name.

Mrs. Zhang silently shed a drop of tears. When she found her three daughters present, she quickly covered herself up and took the basket from Sanya's hand. "Go and wash your face, and cook later."

Yi Xue didn't speak, and she couldn't comfort her mother now, but she was planning how to make a fortune in her heart.

After everyone had dinner, Yi Xue was thinking about how to pay back Uncle Guo's money, while Mrs. Zhang had already gone out.As for what to do, Yi Xue guessed that she was trying to find a way to help the workers to earn money.

In the past few days, Mrs. Zhang has been helping the villagers weed the fields, earning three Wen a day.After a day of understanding, she probably knows the prices here. One tael of silver is equal to ten renminbi or one hundred Wen, a catty of coarse grain is 25 Wen, and a catty of pork is [-] Wen.In other words, if you save money without eating or drinking, you can buy a catty of coarse grains and pork in ten days.

The coarse grains here are different from those in the previous life. They are a bit similar to wheat, but they are coarser than wheat and tasteless.And the main method is to fry and boil.

Yi Xue hadn't eaten it, only heard it from Mrs. Zhang.

After thinking about it for a while, Yi Xue decided to use the old method, pretend to find some sweet potatoes, sell them in the town, and make some money first.

"Sister, can you eat the one you mentioned?" Sanya interrupted Yi Xue's thoughts and asked, pointing to sweet potatoes.

The little girl has been starving for a long time, and she is very excited about eating.

Yi Xue pretended to shake her head, "I don't know, let's try."

"Erya, burn some firewood in the stove," Yi Xue said.

Erya went in to light the fire, Yixue and Sanya quickly washed the soil on the sweet potatoes, waited for Erya to finish lighting the fire, and then waited until the firewood had no flames, then buried five sweet potatoes into the fire.

Yi Xue walked out of the kitchen, but Erya and Sanya were reluctant to come out, staring at Zaohuo as if there was a roast chicken inside.

In less than half an hour, there was a sweet smell coming from the dry fire, like a delicacy, and even Yi Xue felt hungry all of a sudden.

"Big sister, big sister, it smells so good," Sanya shouted excitedly.

Yi Xue turned the sweet potato out with a branch, and saw that the golden yellow sweet potato had a fragrance that made her salivate.

Erya and Sanya stared at Sweet Potato even more intently, the corners of their mouths were drooling, which made Yi Xue laugh.

"Sister, how do you eat this?" Sanya tentatively touched the sweet potato, "Oh, it's so hot."
