Traveling back to ancient times begins with the use of stone tools

"Don't worry about the money. I'll tell everyone that if you have time, please help make the adobe bricks. Once we have enough adobe bricks, we'll provide two meals. There are many people in the village, so we can get up in two days."

"Thank you, Grandpa Village Chief."

"Why are you being so polite? We are all from the same village. We are just poor, so we can only help each other."

The village chief sighed and left.

I had originally planned to wait until everyone had settled down before finding someone to help the mother and her two children build a house, but I didn’t expect people from Wangjia Village to come.

Thinking that they had lived together in the valley, and that there seemed to be some food in Madam Liu's house, he did not go to call people from the village.

Leng Ruoxue went for a walk on the mountain by herself, but didn't find any fruit trees, so she took the straw from the space and went back.

The straw had to be dried before it could be used on the roof, and she didn't know how to do it.

Liu Ruxu knew that Leng Ruoxue had been cutting grass on the mountain, so it was not surprising to see dead grass on the mountain. She did not pay any attention to it and was busy tending to the vegetable garden.

They don’t have any land now, and they have had experience of growing vegetables twice before. Now they have to plant the vegetables as soon as possible.

There was still vegetable and melon porridge in the evening. After eating and washing up, Liu Ruxu took Leng Yuxuan to sleep.

Leng Yuxuan herded the cattle, cut the grass, and collected firewood, and he was exhausted.

Leng Ruoxue continued to pick strawberries, plow the land, and prepare to plant crops.

She was asked to dig up all the wild vegetables. Now that we have strawberries, we don't need wild vegetables so much.

The next morning, Liu Ruxu saw a lot of dead grass and wild vegetables in her house. She wondered why the wild vegetables were dug up with their roots. However, the roots of the wild vegetables could be dried and were good materials for starting a fire.

He didn't ask any further questions. He just wanted Ruoxue to have a good sleep during the day because she had to leave for the county town in the evening.

Prepare dry food and water, and Liu Ruxu also put a lot of dried meat in it.

Before it got dark, Liu Datong and Grandpa Wang and Uncle Wang arrived, carrying winter melons and pumpkins in small bamboo baskets.

"I planted these vegetables before you left. Now that I've harvested some of them, I'll bring them to you first."

Liu Datong gave the vegetables he brought to Liu Ruxu.

"We wanted to ride on a bullock cart to the county town to sell vegetables."

Grandpa Wang was smiling.

"Fortunately, I listened to Ruoxue. We planted the vegetables first, harvested the vegetables in the field, and kept the vegetables in the yard for our family. I just don't know what price we can sell these vegetables for. Ruoxue will give me some advice when the time comes."

Grandpa Wang took the bamboo tube handed over by Liu Ruxu and took a sip of water.

"It's good to have people around to keep you company, Grandpa. Put the basket in my room and I'll go get it ready."

"What do you want to do? We'll do it for you."

Liu Datong stood up.

"That's fine, uncle, help me pick the strawberries, that's it... these are ripe, just put two layers in one basket, put the ugly ones and the ones with broken skin in another basket"

Leng Ruoxue left a few baskets and put a few extra baskets under the bed in her room, and put the rest into the space.

Estimating the time, he quickly put the picked strawberries in the space into the basket, and also put the strawberries that did not look good in a separate basket.

"Uncle, you guys do this first, I'll go pick some leaves and be back soon"

Leng Ruoxue went out carrying the basket on her back.

She had prepared a bunch of leaves in the space before, and she had to take time to go into the space to prepare. She was afraid of being discovered at home, so she had to find another excuse.

I prepared all the strawberries in the space and then went home.

As the sun set, Grandpa Wang and his friends embarrassedly ate a meal at Leng Ruoxue's house before setting off in the ox cart.

Only 50 baskets of strawberries were picked from 20 plants, but the strawberries were afraid of being pressed and touched, so it took a long time to put them on the ox cart.

Four people sat beside the ox cart and swayed towards the city.

They didn't sleep at all that night. When they arrived at the county town, Leng Ruoxue asked Liu Datong to go to bed first, and she took Grandpa Wang and his son to set up the stall.

As usual, I went to the grain store to check the grain prices. Now the price of brown rice has dropped to 40 cents per pound.

"Grandpa Wang, I estimate that I can sell these vegetables for 20 to 25 wen. So, I'll sell them for 25 wen for half a day and then wait and see in the afternoon. Uncle Wang, these strawberries are 50 wen a basket. Please help me sell them. I'll take two baskets to sell on the street. If anyone asks about the price and hesitates, you can give them one from this basket to taste."

After saying that, he took out two and gave one to Grandpa Wang and Uncle Wang each.

"We won't eat such expensive food, we'll keep it for sale"

The Wang family father and son waved their hands hurriedly.

"Master, how can you sell something if you don't know the taste?"

Leng Ruoxue smiled and gave the strawberries to the two people. "Don't forget to tell the customers that these strawberries don't last long and need to be eaten up in a day or two."

After giving the instructions, Leng Ruoxue took two baskets of strawberries and started selling them.

Leng Ruoxue did not sell her goods randomly, but went to a restaurant or teahouse.

Thanks to her hard work in promoting the products, the first and second restaurants and teahouses each kept two baskets.

After Leng Ruoxue went to four or five teahouses, the waiter in the teahouse found Leng Ruoxue.

"Wait a minute, little girl."

The guy was sweating all over from running.

"Big, sweet strawberries, 50 cents a basket, how many baskets do you want?"

"I know, our young master happened to see it and asked me to buy all the fruits from your house."

The guy rolled his eyes.

"I just went to the market and saw that the people from the restaurant took away all the fruit from your house. They said you should have some, so I came to look for you."

It was the first time for the Wang family and his son to sell vegetables in the market, and they didn’t know how to shout. Several people asked about the price of strawberries but they thought it was too expensive, and they didn’t sell any.

Unexpectedly, a guy came and packed the strawberries without saying a word.

Another waiter came behind and bought the strawberries that were prepared for everyone to taste, and asked if there were any more.

They had no choice but to say that a little girl in the village took it and sold it, so she should still have some.

The guy came all the way here.

"I have about 100 baskets left. Can you guys take them all?"

Leng Ruoxue regretted it, thinking that she must have sold it too cheaply.

"Come with me, I'll ask the host."

When the guy heard so many options, he couldn't make up his mind.

He took the two baskets of strawberries from Leng Ruoxue and motioned Leng Ruoxue to go with him.

Leng Ruoxue estimated as she walked how much she could still pick from her space.

During this day and night, a lot of strawberries became riper.

When they arrived at the teahouse, the waiter took Leng Ruoxue to a private room and said, "Wait a moment."

After entering the private room for a while, the waiter came out and said, "Our young master wants you to come in."

A rich man, Leng Ruoxue thought to herself, probably a fat man with a fat head and big ears. Nowadays, everyone is hungry and there are very few fat people.

As soon as I entered, I saw a young man in gorgeous clothes eating strawberries, "Is this fruit from yours?"

Leng Ruoxue: Isn’t this nonsense?

"Do you know how to make the fruit last longer?"

"If you can't finish the food at home, put it in the well and it can be preserved for two more days. I guess if there is ice, it can be preserved for about 3 to 4 days."

Leng Ruoxue wasn't sure either.

"But you should only wash the fruit when you are ready to eat it. If you wash it, it won't last long."
