Before leaving, Chu Qing asked someone to find Wu Dalang. Wu Dalang had been working here at Chu Qing. He was down-to-earth and capable, but didn't talk much. Every time Chu Qing saw him, he would think of his family's misfortune.

This time, Chu Qing told him that he would take him to Donglun if he had the opportunity, and asked him if he wanted to find his family. Wu Dalang was really excited. Of course he would go. Chu Qing also incorporated him into the grain transport team.

People can also take care of him.

The sales team was very excited. This was their first mission. The special operations team had already carried out missions. The technical team was originally a stay-at-home team. Only their sales team had not officially used it. Everyone else in the sales team could

I envy them.

Because of Chu Qing's explanation, they assigned ten people to escort Wu Dalang and help him pick up his family. The place had been taken over by Hong Liang's troops. Even if there was any situation, these ten veterans could handle it.

Each of the sales team who was about to set off had a hundred taels of silver in their pockets to make money. Chu Qing asked them to look for business opportunities and make money if they could. If there was no chance, the one hundred taels would be enough for their round trip expenses.

.

The sales team was secretly divided into six teams, with ten people in each team. When they arrived in Donglun, they dispersed in several groups. The team escorting Wu Dalang simply completed the escort work and then got down to business. They made an appointment

Compete with each other.

Wu Dalang's team was a team, and they successfully helped Wu Dalang take back his younger brother, son and daughter-in-law. His in-laws' family didn't even dare to say a word.

After the collapse of the Dong Lun border, no one took care of these Daxuan people who were used as road construction workers. Without the strength of the army, the village was under military control. If they didn't keep their tail between their legs, they would risk their lives.

After the first team sent Wu Dalang away, they began to inspect. Because they had the task of escorting, the other five teams left the nearest area to the first team, and they walked farther away.

The problem is that this border area is a mountainous area. Although it is not too high, it is nothing but rocks. There is very little land and the country is very poor. It is hard to see any business opportunities. These people are helpless.

"What should we do?" one person said, "We can't go back empty-handed, right?"

Another said: "Of course not!"

"If you ask me, we still have little knowledge. Look at our master, we can turn anything into money."

"I don't know if the stones here are worth anything. Our master can make bricks by digging some soil from the mountain."

"There is nothing valuable here except the people! Why don't we drive the people back and make bricks for the master?"

"Who are you driving away? Who can trust the people here? It's better to drive back some cattle and sheep than driving people away!"

However, there are not many cattle here. There is little land in the mountainous area and the people are poor. The only valuable thing every household has is a few sheep. Everyone decided that if there is no harvest within a month, they will drive the sheep back.

It's really shameful to return empty-handed. If nothing else, their master can squeeze out oil from even dry and hard things like soybeans. You can imagine how shameless it would be if he didn't bring something back with him.

Most of these veterans were from farmers and knew how to work in the fields, but not much else. They didn't teach anything else on the battlefield. So after one month, they really didn't find any business that could be developed. They had no choice but to acquire.

The sheep of these villages.

It was just after the beginning of spring, the weather was still cold, and it was the peak period for sheep to lose weight. It is difficult for sheep at this time of year. There is no fresh forage to eat, and all the dry forage has been eaten, and they all rely on the fat on their tails to hold on.

If you can hold on, you'll live, if you can't, you'll be slaughtered and eaten.

Therefore, it did not cost a lot of money to acquire these sheep, but the problem was also huge. If these skinny sheep wanted to drive them back, cold and hunger would be the biggest tests. One team bought all the fodder they could buy and planned to go back.

On the way home, I also collected some in the mountains. Just take back as much as you can.

In this way, a team drove a group of sheep back to the Baolu Group with great effort. They stripped the sheep that died on the road and brought them back. Those who could eat the meat were eaten, and those who couldn't finish were carried all the way back. They all became

Dried meat.

Chu Qing was very happy to see the poor sheep. Her sales team did not return empty-handed, which showed that they also used their brains. It would be better to practice a few more times and gain experience.

When she found out that the first team was the one closest to home but came back so late because they had to find fodder for the sheep along the way, Chu Qing felt that it was really hard for these young men. In such a cold weather, she herself was unwilling to leave the house.

But they still have to cut the dead grass in the mountains.

When the young men were pulling and pulling the remaining grass to find a place to put it away, Chu Qing noticed that some of the grass looked familiar. Although it was dry, the pairs of small round leaves still had small grains at the roots.

, why does it look like peanuts?

Chu Qing has never seen peanuts in this world! He reached out and broke open one, and it was a peanut! He chewed it in his mouth. It was well preserved and not moldy.

"Hey, Master! Why are you putting it in your mouth? This thing is inedible!" said a young man.

"Yes, local people don't eat it. It's not delicious, so only sheep eat it."

"Master, sometimes sheep will get sick if they eat this stuff. Don't taste it blindly."

Knowing that everyone was well-intentioned, Chu Qing simply peeled off another peanut in front of them and stuffed it into the mouth of the young man closest to her. The young man blushed at the sudden action: The master was feeding it with his own hands.

Do you think of him as a little treasure?

But after chewing like this, he said, "Oh, it's so delicious!" He stretched out his hand to pick another one to eat. Chu Qing looked at the bundle of dried peanut seedlings and refused to let them go! "You can't eat them even if they are delicious! Take them out!"

, I will be the seed!”

There are some wild peanuts in the mountains of Donglun. Because they are in shells, the locals have tasted them without peeling them. They are not very delicious and cannot be used as food. They are not very hungry. But they will make some when the peanut seedlings are still young.

Wild vegetables.

This is also an experience I gained when I was herding sheep and saw that the sheep loved to eat. However, it is not safe to eat. Sometimes they bring back peanut seedlings to use as rations for the sheep, but stacking them in bundles can easily cause mold.

, the sheep got sick from eating it and died seriously, so they didn’t pay much attention to peanuts.

Chu Qing thought, this may be the reason why peanuts are not popular even though they are available. Now Chu Qing collects these peanuts like treasures, weighing less than five kilograms a dozen. Then he picks out the shriveled and broken ones, which are even more

There isn't much left. If it were planted in the ground, it would be less than half an acre.

But it doesn't matter, "Sow a grain of millet in spring and harvest ten thousand seeds in autumn"! Wait until next year, she will have more seeds.

Chu Qing fried the unqualified peanuts he picked out and treated them to everyone. It was only one plate. Each person could only eat a few.

"Does it smell good?" Chu Qing looked at them with a smile.

"Smells! It smells so good! The more you chew, the more delicious it becomes!" Everyone chewed hard, and each person only had a few pills, so they had to savor the taste!

"I will use the remaining peanuts to raise seedlings and won't let you eat them. If there is a good harvest next year, I will treat you to a good meal." Chu Qing promised.

"Boss, we decided to go back and see if there is anything we can do to make money!" said a member of the first team.

"Yes, we want to look for another opportunity, and then we ask the locals to go to the mountains to dig peanuts, and we ask them to hunt for Leymus chinensis, and they will definitely do it!"

"Master, we want to collect some coarse grains and bring them over. They don't have enough food to eat. We want to trade the grains with them for land and grow peanuts in the future!"

Chu Qing's eyes lit up, and he had a brain! He exchanged land cheaply, and then turned the local farmers into tenant farmers. Wouldn't he have another piece of land? There would even be people who farmed the land!

"Okay, don't tell me, just go when you have a plan. I'll prepare whatever you need!"

The ten-man team set off again.
