Liushu Village is a large village with about a hundred households, mainly composed of two major families, the Ye family and the Shen family, as well as several outsiders who fled famine.

Ye Ze's cousin Ye Changgen is the village chief of Liushu Village and also the patriarch of the Ye family.

The head of the Ye family became the head of the village. Even if the members of the Shen family were not convinced, they at least had to maintain outward respect.

Later, Ye Ze could no longer continue his studies, so they hoped that Shen Wenren could work hard and pass the imperial examination to become a scholar. Maybe then he could even compete with Ye for the position of village chief.

Therefore, it is difficult for the Shen clan members to maintain even superficial respect for Ye Changgen now, especially the elders of the Shen clan who are more senior, and they do not even take the village chief seriously.

......

Back to the topic, Ye Ze came to the house of Village Chief Ye to borrow an ox cart. When Village Chief Ye heard that Ye Ze was going to the town to sell herbs, he harnessed the ox cart and led it out without saying a word.

He was happy that Ye Ze could make progress. Besides, there were several families in the tribe who were living in hard times and followed Boss Ye and his men to the mountains to collect herbs. It was said that Ye Ze learned the skill of identifying herbs from a book.

No matter what, being able to help the tribe members improve their lives is a great thing, and Village Chief Ye certainly supports it.

Ye Ze thanked Village Chief Ye repeatedly. He didn't expect that it would be so easy to borrow the ox cart. He took the ox cart back home and loaded all the herbs on the cart. Then Ye Ze drove the ox cart out of the house.

After leaving the village and walking a little further east, there was a large forest on the left. Ye Ze drove the ox cart directly into the forest, turned on the system monitoring and scanning program, found a secluded place where no one was around, and sold everything on the cart to the mall.

The purchase price offered by the mall is slightly higher than that in town, so the extra money is considered as his extra income. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to explain why he sold for too much money.

It was still early after selling the things, and he couldn't go back so early. He didn't know if he could put the ox cart into the storage space. There was no road in the forest, and the ox cart couldn't go in. If he left it here, he was afraid it would be lost. He didn't have the money to compensate the village chief's family for an ox cart.

Moreover, he had borrowed the ox cart with a thick face. If it were really lost, wouldn’t the credibility he had just established be gone?

Ye Ze was staring at the ox cart and thinking this when the ox cart in front of him disappeared in an instant.

At the same time, in the storage space, the cow seemed to be frozen, standing motionless in the center of the space.

Ye Ze was startled and quickly let it out. The cow began to moo again and lowered its head to eat grass.

Just when Ye Ze was full of doubts, the system suddenly popped up to explain:

"Ding, host, time is still in the storage space. Any living creature that enters will be stilled. It will automatically come back to life after being released. Don't worry, host."

So that's how it is. Ye Ze was no longer afraid. He directly put the ox cart into the storage space and walked into the forest with ease. With the monitoring and scanning plug-in, Ye Ze could avoid any danger in the first place.

He also dug out some mushrooms that were very well hidden. He didn't need to tell whether they were poisonous or not, or whether they were edible or not; it was clear at a glance.

Ye Zecai was so excited that he unknowingly reached the depths of the forest. The vegetation here was dense, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of dead branches and leaves, and a smell of corruption was everywhere.

Ye Ze stopped and frowned, looking up at the position of the sun through the gaps in the tree canopy. It was almost ten o'clock and the time he calculated was about right. Just as Ye Ze was about to turn around and go back, the two words "Lingzhi" specially marked on the scan screen instantly attracted all of Ye Ze's attention.

Ganoderma lucidum?

He's going to get rich?!

With an excited and nervous heart, Ye Ze followed the scanning screen to the place where the Ganoderma lucidum was. Three red Ganoderma lucidum of different sizes were growing on a thick dead tree stump.

Ye Ze picked the three Ganoderma lucidum carefully. Almost at the same time, the system also gave the price of the Ganoderma lucidum. The largest one could be sold for fifty taels of silver, and the two smaller ones for twenty taels of silver each.

You have to know that ten taels of silver in this era is equivalent to ten thousand yuan in modern times! Just these three Ganoderma lucidum can be sold for ninety taels of silver!

Sold! Ye Ze waved his hand, and ninety taels of silver instantly appeared in the space, a total of nine silver ingots of ten taels each.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for reaching a transaction value of ninety."

Ye Ze: “…”

Ha! This trip was worth it! I didn't expect that I could get trading points by selling things. Ye Ze walked back with satisfaction.

The dynasty that Ye Ze is currently living in is one he has never heard of in his previous life—the Dayu Dynasty.

The Dayu Dynasty has been plagued by constant wars since its founding, and the people have been living in misery. Thirty years ago, General Mu, who was only fifteen years old, emerged out of nowhere and drove the invading enemy army back twenty miles past the border, making him famous in one battle.

Afterwards, General Mu single-handedly formed the Mu Family Army, which terrified the enemy. They won battle after battle until the enemy no longer dared to invade our border. The general personally sent the princess of the enemy country to ask for peace, which brought the people of the Dayu Dynasty nearly twenty years of peace.

General Mu returned triumphantly, and the emperor personally welcomed him and conferred him the title of Duke of Mu. However, for some unknown reason, the emperor later took back Duke Mu's military power.

Perhaps they were afraid that his achievements would become too great and would threaten the emperor, so meritorious officials would be discarded after they had done their work. This has been the consistent style of all kings since ancient times.

Nearly twenty years of recuperation have not made people's lives much better. The national treasury is so empty, and people have to deal with various natural and man-made disasters at any time. The grain grown by the people has been taxed in various ways, and they can't save much money at the end of the year.

Ye Ze got ninety taels of silver from the sale, which is probably the savings that ordinary people can save for a lifetime.

Who wouldn’t be happy to have money? With money, you should naturally improve the food for your family first!

Ye Ze directly bought twenty kilograms of rice, twenty kilograms of flour, two pieces of pork, and some salt and seasonings from the mall. He was going to eat dumplings tonight!

Rice and flour are a bit eye-catching, but they are the cheapest food sold in this mall.

Seasonings and salt are must-buys. Home-cooked meals are tasteless. Without seasonings and salt, even the best ingredients will be wasted!

Buy some soft pastries for the old lady and take them back so that she can eat them whenever she is hungry. Also buy some fruit candies for my wife and the children at home as snacks.

After buying all the things, except for the fruit candies which Ye Ze divided into small packages and placed in the space, all the others were placed on the ox cart and covered with the coarse cloth used to wrap the herbs before. Then Ye Ze happily drove the ox cart home.

There were only two brothers, Ye Wenli and Ye Wenhong, in the yard, squatting beside the elm tree watching the ants moving. Old Lady Ye and Zhao Li were also in the main room.

"Uncle."

"Uncle."

Seeing Ye Ze coming back, Ye Wenli and the others greeted him politely and continued playing.
