Xianggong came from the mountains

Chapter 81 Meet the nobles
The more Granny Deng listened, the more interested she became. If it could be sold for money, wouldn't the Pueraria lobata all over the mountains and plains be able to make a fortune.

But the price of kudzu root still needs to be asked clearly. She looked at Xia Qinghe gently and said, "Then how much is kudzu root per catty?"

Da Huzi loves to talk about the price of kudzu root. The things that grow on the mountain are not worth much, and he didn’t spend much effort, so he said with a smile: "Kudzu root is two cents a catty, and twenty catties can be more if you wash it. Give four Wen, and my mother and I can sell it for seventy or eighty Wen in one day."

Granny Deng was overjoyed. She also sells sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are not easy to sell for a penny and a catty. This kudzu root is actually more expensive than sweet potatoes. The more I think about it, the more I think this business can be done.

But she didn't agree immediately, but said very calmly: "If it's really edible, then I'll go back and dig. I just have time recently, how much kudzu root do you need, little girl?"

Xia Qinghe is very serious, she has a complete plan, so she answered with certainty: "As much as you want, just wash it and send it to me."

Now that she has borrowed a donkey, she can start rolling the stone mill as soon as it is installed, and then can produce a large amount of starch. The most important thing is that she doesn't need to bother much after washing it.

The boat arrived at the village soon, and Dahuzi moored the boat. Xia Qinghe took Granny Deng to her house first.

Although it is close, Granny Deng thinks this is the second time she has come to Kaoshan Village. When she passed by the village, she looked at the houses in the village and said with emotion: "The ancestors of the Zhu family who first came to settle here were to avoid disasters. At first, there were few people here. Xanadu, but I didn’t expect that there are more people and the bandits are also eyeing here. Our village is a little bit better, and it is closer to the nearby villages. When the bandits come, people from the next few villages will come to help, so this time only Relying on the mountain village."

Xia Qinghe secretly called herself unlucky in her heart, time travel is fine, well, time travel to a girl of unknown background, that's fine, the old lady Han she met before, but she was stunned, now think about the time at the beginning She is no ordinary wimp.

But after thinking about it, I was not familiar with the place at the time, and I hadn't figured out the situation. If I resisted, I guess it would be an egg hitting a rock, and I might end up being beaten harder.

When Mrs. Han died, she didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow, she could only lament that fate made fun of others.

"The bandits scared me to death last time. If I hadn't been hiding in the haystack, I would have died. It's my fate." Xia Qinghe said with emotion, thinking about what happened that night, as if he was dreaming.

After a while, she arrived at the foot of the mountain. Granny Deng looked around and frowned, "Your family lives at the bottom of this mountain? It's not wise to live away from the village."

There are wild beasts around here, and if you are far away from the village, you will be easily attacked by wild beasts, especially when there is a shortage of food in winter, there may be something wandering nearby.

Xia Qinghe didn't want too many people to know her origin, so she could only sigh: "My brother is a little slow to react. People in the village often bully him, so he moved to the foot of the mountain. I don't worry if the fence of my house is well done. Mother-in-law, you can rest Let's go again."

She could already see the fence, and Granny Deng bent over to take a breath, and said embarrassedly: "Little girl, don't dislike me for walking slowly, it's useless when I'm old, I feel tired all over when I walk. , let’s rest at your house.”

Xia Qinghe stepped forward to support Granny Deng as she walked slowly.

The door was open, and Zhu Xiaochang was cleaning kudzu roots in the yard, when he saw Xia Qinghe came back, he quickly stood up to greet him.

The big black dog also wagged its tail to greet Xia Qinghe.

"Xiaochang go and move the stool out." Xia Qinghe said, and Zhu Xiaochang immediately turned around and entered the room.

The last time Granny Deng saw Zhu Xiaochang, knowing that there were only two brothers and sisters in this yard, she felt more and more sympathetic to Xia Qinghe: "You two brothers and sisters are poor people, live a good life, life has to go on slowly."

At this point, she didn't know what to say next.

Zhu Xiaochang just heard this sentence, put the stool next to Granny Deng, and said sincerely: "When my mother was still there, she often said that sometimes people can't hold their own lives, mother-in-law, sit down and rest, and I will pour it for you." Tea."

Granny Deng looked at the kudzu roots in the yard. They picked out a few kudzu roots that were not cleaned when they were put into the firewood room. Some dead corners were not easy to clean. Zhu Xiaochang was using a knife to cut off those dead corners that were not easy to clean. , so there are many baskets scattered in the yard.

"Your family really has so many kudzu roots." Granny Deng still felt a little unbelievable, looking at kudzu roots felt like she was dreaming.

She is actually convincing herself little by little that kudzu root is edible.

Xia Qinghe stood up and said with a smile: "Grandma, sit down and wait for me. I'll make jelly for you. You'll know if I'm lying after you eat it."

She turned around and went straight into the kitchen, quickly made a bowl of seasoned jelly for Granny Deng, and handed it to Granny Deng.

Looking at some blackened jelly in the bowl, Granny Deng took a piece of it with her chopsticks in a skeptical attitude.

As soon as the jelly was in her mouth, she had only one feeling, it was delicious!Moreover, this jelly is very tender, especially suitable for the elderly. The taste of Xia Qinghe's mix is ​​extremely good. After one bite, I can't help but take a second bite.

"Delicious, delicious." She kept saying, and looked at Xia Qinghe with a smile, still feeling incredible: "Is this really made by Ge Gen?"

Xia Qinghe sat next to Granny Deng, and said very gently: "Of course, Granny Deng, if you want to make money, you can go back and dig. If people in your village are willing to dig, you can introduce them to me. This is more cost-effective than selling sweet potatoes. Think about it , You have to grow sweet potatoes by yourself. After planting, you have to dig them, clean them and sell them. The most important thing is that they are not easy to sell. Pueraria is different. There are many of them on the mountain, and you can find them with a little effort, but I still recommend not Digging too small, after all, there is still a chance to sell it next year.”

She also told the villagers not to dig the ones that are too small and save them for next year, and to be merciful if they want sustainable development.

Granny Deng is already moved, she knows how to settle accounts, at least she can earn forty or fifty renminbi in a day, the only thing about kudzu root is that it is not so easy to dig, after all, the land in the forest is relatively hard.

But this is indeed a worthless transaction.

This is really an opportunity to make money right in front of her eyes, she said repeatedly: "I'll go digging when I get back, and you should prepare the money."

Xia Qinghe exchanged 15 taels of silver and now she is not in a panic anymore, but what she misses most is the donkey: "Grandma Deng, can you rent the donkey to me?"

Granny Deng is a straightforward person, and she said very freely: "I don't like to hear whether it is rented or not. You just need to borrow it for a few days. I serve it with delicious food and drink every day. It has to make some contributions, right?"
