Spring scenery in the fields

"Okay, I'm familiar with all the villages outside the mountains."

Ji Wenhe thought for a moment and said, "Yuanshan, do you remember the price of each style?"

He nodded: "Okay, I remember."

The cheapest is three cents and the most expensive is six cents.

"So, if you buy two of the three-cent variety, you'll charge five cents, and if you buy three, seven cents. The same goes for the other styles."

Shen Wenshan was puzzled: "Sister-in-law, then don't we earn a lot less?"

Shen Yuanshan took over the conversation: "Sister-in-law, if they bought a three-cent coin and a five-cent coin, or a six-cent coin, how should it be calculated?"

The styles are different, and if you really want to buy something, you will definitely not buy only the same style.

Ji Wenhe thought for a moment and said, "Well, for those below ten cents, you can set the price according to what I just said. If the total price is above ten cents, subtract three cents. If it is above twenty cents, subtract five cents."

"Although we earn less, when they hear that buying more can save money, most people will still choose to buy more. Besides, there is more than one child in the family. How can we share it if we only buy one?"

Among farmers, very few have only one child. Most have two or more, and some have seven or eight.

The two nodded in understanding.

Ji Wenhe thought of Shen Hubiao's return and was worried that it would be unsafe for Shen Yuanshan to go out alone: ​​"Wenshan, you go with Yuanshan tomorrow."

"Watch more of how he talks to people. When business picks up, I want you two to go to different villages."

It is impossible to visit all the surrounding villages on foot in a whole day. It is faster if two people go on both sides, and one person won’t be too tired.

After hearing this, Shen Wenshan nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely study hard."

Both of them are full of confidence.

Ji Wenhe smiled and nodded, then stood up and walked to Shen Rongshan: "Brother Shen, after we make some money, we will buy some more goods and sell other things."

"Handkerchiefs, toys, and wooden hairpins are not easy to sell."

Farmers buy little, so what they buy back will end up being a waste of money.

"I know. We won't sell these. Let Yuanshan find out what they need and we'll discuss it."

Shen Rongshan nodded: "Yes."

Ji Wenhe looked at his profile and said, "Brother Shen, when we make money, we will open a grocery store in the village and sell everything."

"I'm customizing a car. I'll be at home watching over the shop on weekdays. You can go to a distant village to sell it, or hire someone to watch over the shop. I'll go with you."

"And meat. I think meat is the best seller. You can hunt. Let's cut up the prey and I'll pickle it."

In the previous life, I bought cold dishes, roast chicken, roast goose, etc. They didn’t have to roast them, they were sold raw, or boiled and mixed with seasonings.

"If we raise piglets and chickens, we won't have to buy pork and can save a lot of money."

She spoke of the future she had planned in her mind.

The three of them listened quietly.

Ji Wenhe's face was filled with longing for the future.

Shen Rongshan stopped what he was doing at some point and looked at her gently.

In the future she talked about, there were three of them.

At this moment, she looked over and smiled at him, as beautiful as a flower.

Heart, pounding.

Shen Rongshan did not look away, staring at her without blinking.

Ji Wenhe blushed when he looked at her. She lowered her head slightly and looked to the side. The two people over there had turned their backs to them without them knowing.

She looked up at the sun in the sky and said in a casual tone, "Oh, the sun is very strong today. It's very hot."

Then he turned and went back into the house, patting his chest until he was out of sight behind him.

Her heart was beating fast, thump-thump.

Thinking of his fixed gaze, her face turned red again.

……

The next morning, Shen Yuanshan and Shen Wenshan got up early.

Ji Wenhe came out yawning and saw that the two were almost walking down the mountain.

"Brother Shen, have they eaten yet?"

"They have eaten." Shen Rongshan poured hot water into the wash basin. "They want to go early and come back before the evening."

This mountain is very big. You can’t see it from the village, but when you look from outside the village, the mountain is very big.

It is impossible to walk around the entire village around the mountain in one day. Even if you are fast, it will take three or four days because you have to stay in the village.

Ji Wenhe bent over, scooped up water to wash his face, closed his eyes and asked, "Brother Shen, what are you going to do today?"

Shen Rongshan served the meal and said softly, "Chop wood, plant vegetables tomorrow, repair the ridges, and grow rice seeds."

We've been busy these days and the firewood at home burns out quickly, so we need to prepare more.

"I'm going with you. Are we going to the hill to the west?"

"Well, you go to Aunt Lan's house to find Xiaoya, I'll go by myself."

"No, I'll go with you and collect firewood."

Ji Wenhe wiped the water off his face and rinsed his mouth with warm water.

If you don’t have a toothbrush, you can dip your fingers or willow branches in salt if you have the conditions. If you don’t have the conditions, just use a willow branch or just rinse your mouth.

Looking at the willow branch in her hand, she didn't dare to use force, for fear of accidentally hurting her gums.

In the morning I had bamboo shoots stewed with brown rice porridge and wild vegetable cakes.

I took a bite of the wild vegetable pancake. It was very crispy on the outside and was made this morning.

Ji Wenhe turned to look at the person who was eating quietly beside him: "Brother Shen, is there only one machete in our house?"

The machete had several holes in it, as if it had been there for many years.

"Well, only one."

The machete was made of iron, which the two of them had dug out from the ashes when the house burned down.

Iron is expensive and people cannot afford it nowadays. If a family needs any farm tools, they will go to the head of the village to borrow them.

His family has all kinds of farm tools.

After dinner, Ji Wenhe went back to the house and changed into the clothes Aunt Lan sent her. The temperature in the mountains was a little high in the morning and evening, but after the sun came out, it was not so cold.

The dress was a little big for her, and since Aunt Lan was taller than her, her pants and sleeves were much longer.

She couldn't bear to cut it off, as she was sure she would grow taller in the future.

He rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs, looked at the patched old cotton shoes on his feet, and sighed helplessly.

I don’t have any sandals, and straw sandals are too cold, so I have to wear cotton shoes for a while.

When she was a child in her previous life, her grandmother made cloth shoes for her. They looked very simple, but she didn’t know if she could learn how to make them. She would go and ask Aunt Lan for help when she bought some cloth in the future.

When she went out, Shen Rongshan was standing in the yard waiting for her with a machete in his hand.

Seeing that she was wearing so little, he asked, "Aren't you cold?"

Ji Wenhe shook his head: "It's not cold, the sun is strong, it will be hot soon, Brother Shen, let's go."

I suddenly took off my cotton clothes and it was still a bit cold, but bearable.

The two went to the hilltop to the west.

Shen Rongshan was walking in front, but suddenly stopped and stretched out his right hand: "Grab my sleeve, slow down."

In fact, the western slope is not steep at all and is very easy to walk on.

Ji Wenhe did not refuse, and smiled as he pulled his sleeve: "Brother Shen, have you ever liked a woman before?"

She was curious.

"No."

After his parents passed away, his family fell into poverty. Who would dare to matchmake for him and marry their daughter to them?

"Then what kind of woman do you like? Gentle and lovely, with personality, or smart and capable?"
