Today she sent fresh vegetables to the health center, hoping that she would be able to sell them for good money.
Luo Baihu was indeed generous in giving a price of ten coins per catty.
In grain stores, the price of corn, sorghum, and millet is only between one and five cents.
Broken Gold Guard was already poor, and the ten cents for vegetables was already a sky-high price.
Fifty jins of vegetables were sold for 500 cash, equivalent to more than 100 jins of grain.
When Song Zhenping saw that half of the cabbage sold in the backyard could earn so much money, she was so happy that she planned to loosen the soil and plant a few more crops when she came back.
As for those acorn noodles, the Wei Institute also quoted a price of two cents per pound.
After all, this is not the bustling big city of Kyoto, but a small rural town. No one will eat ten cents per pound of vegetables.
I'm afraid the health center also eats it every once in a while.
The fresh vegetables and acorns, plus Song Liyun's previous IOU, amounted to less than fifty-two taels of silver.
Keluo Baihu directly paid off the debt with a wool carpet worth a hundred taels of silver.
Song Liyun felt like she was at a loss!
It's not that the wool carpet is bad and not worth the price, but it's so good that it completely exceeded Song Liyun's expectations.
Han Ming said that this kind of wool carpet costs one hundred and fifty taels of silver even in border counties and towns. If it is sent to the capital, it will be even higher.
What makes Song Liyun confused now is what to use such a good wool carpet for.
Simply storing it and not using it obviously does not reflect the value of the carpet.
If you sell it... you still have to work hard to send it to Fucheng, a hundred miles away.
And she was a little reluctant to sell it.
Why can't I enjoy this kind of luxury that I would never dare to think about in the last days?
Song Liyun felt that something was emerging from the deepest part of her heart, and that was greed!
People really can't be satisfied.
In the past, in the last days, what she dreamed of was a safe place to live.
When she arrived in Xiaoshi Village, she wanted to eat pure natural and pollution-free food, even simple boiled chicken would be delicious.
When she arrived in Broken Gold Town, she wanted a big house.
Now that we have a house, we have land, and our desire for a safe place to live has come true.
She wanted the right to speak again.
I have to compete with others for a profit of three cents.
Then he thought he could have some power and influence, so he captured Han Ming as a slave and took the initiative to please the guards.
People are really fickle. She had just solved the problem of food and clothing, and she wanted to live a luxurious life again.
All of this is caused by this wool carpet.
If the room is covered with beautiful and high-end carpets, should it be matched with pear wood tables and chairs?
Only fine porcelain official kiln bowls, cups and plates can be placed on the pear wood table, which must also contain white fungus and bird's nest soup.
The ones you step on the snow-white wool carpet must not be muddy straw sandals, but soft satin boots, and the clothes you wear must be silk and satin.
As a result, rough hands cannot touch silk and satin, and slaves and maidens are needed to serve them.
This is Pandora's box that has been opened.
Song Liyun took a long breath and said in a hoarse voice: "Put away the carpet first and use it later!"
As soon as she said this, Song Zhenping and Xiao An nodded in unison. Obviously, the snow-white wool carpet also put pressure on them.
The hope of making a lot of money from the guardhouse has obviously been shattered, and now there is no longer even an interest of 500 cash per month.
What's even more disgusting is that Luo Baihu not only took back the IOU, but also kindly sent him a source of evil.
How to make money immediately became a major issue in Song Liyun's mind.
Sending food to the health center is not without benefits.
Song Liyun wanted to expand the greenhouse, so Luo Baihu directly sent dozens of people over.
The current greenhouse of the Song family only borrows the fire wall of the former main house, and the land is still in the room at the foundation of the original house.
In this way, although the backyard is large, the actual effective usable area is only three rooms, about one hundred square meters.
Song Liyun means to build two more fire walls to surround the backyard, enclose the entire half-acre of the backyard, and build a greenhouse so that more vegetables can be grown.
Luo Baihu was very supportive of Song Liyun's idea.
Not only did the manpower to build the greenhouse come from the health office, but the required bricks and mortar were also provided free of charge by the health office.
Anyway, there are still some leftovers to build the wall, and people are idle for nothing.
The Song family only needs to prepare a meal for these dozens of people, or send twenty pots of acorn tofu to the Wei Suo. In addition, the vegetables grown in the future should be given priority to the Wei Suo.
Song Liyun once again felt that everyone who could climb to a high position was not a fool.
Even Luo Baihu, who looks rough and upright, is an expert at cheating and cheating.
Of course, we cannot refuse this kind of door-to-door service. After the greenhouse is repaired, it will be used every winter in the future.
In terms of reward, Song Liyun decisively chose to give away acorn tofu.
Her family doesn't have that much food, and she doesn't want to turn herself and Xiao An into slaves.
Besides, she had other things to do.
To expand the greenhouse, there will be dozens of people coming to the house. People come and go, and the backyard is a big construction site.
It's not good to keep the timid Xiao An and the irascible Hei Jin in the side courtyard all the time. They don't know when they will get into trouble.
In order to prevent too many people from traveling on business, Song Liyun left Han Ming and Song Zhenping at home to look after the construction site, while he took Xiao An and Hei Jin up the mountain.
It's cold now, and Xiao An, who is weak, has already been dressed as a cloth roller.
Song Liyun wanted to hunt some hares and make some fur hats and scarves for Xiao An.
The river was covered with thin ice, and without Han Ming around, Song Liyun did not move the single-plank bridge. Instead, he took out a long ladder from the space and carried Xiao An across it.
Heijin was now wearing a cotton jacket and cotton trousers, and he was afraid of getting wet, so he could only follow behind obediently.
Song Liyun found the hilltop where she had collected clean acorns before, and she planned to place Xiao An here.
If there are no acorns here, there will be no wild beasts coming for food, so it is considered a very safe place.
First, he found a big tree with leeward wind, and took out a small camouflage windproof and warm camping tent.
Then she took out a small clay stove that burned wood, a stainless steel pot that was integrated with cooking, a rubber moisture-proof mat, and a titanium folding chair. This was her mobile home in the apocalypse.
In order to take care of Xiao An's use, she did not take out some of the weird electrical appliances.
Even so, this is a great collection of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign works.
Xiao An was shocked by these strange things.
What are these colorful little houses made of? Why do they look so thin, but when you walk in they are very warm and there is no wind at all.
And the shiny pot is all made of iron.
Song Liyun pulled Xiao An into the tent and told him about the various zippers of the tent and the use of various pockets.
The easiest time to communicate with someone is when they believe what you say and don't refute it at all, and they don't take it seriously.
After Xiao An managed to learn how to use the sleeping bag in the tent, the siblings walked out of the tent together.
When Song Liyun raised his eyes and saw a scene, he almost turned his nose in anger, jumped to his feet and shouted: "Heijin, that is a cooking pot, not your toy, please take it off quickly!"
