Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

"Qiqi, just give it to me on credit! Let me sow the seeds on the land first, and then I'll go to the mountains to hunt pheasants and rabbits for you, okay?"

Xia Shengsheng discussed it for a long time, but he protected the small bag of corn seeds very tightly and refused to give it to Xia Shengsheng first.

"How can that be? I am a principled person. I absolutely cannot sell on credit. If everyone is like you, how can I continue to do business in the future?"

Xia was so angry that he wanted to punch Qiqi.

But she didn't dare! Wouldn't she still have to beg others to do things?

“What a guy who doesn’t know how to adapt.

Then I'll get up early tomorrow and go up the mountain? That's not impossible.

This way it won’t waste time.”

Xia Shengsheng was just deciding to climb the mountain early tomorrow before the sun rose.

When she went to hunt pheasants and rabbits to exchange for the corn seeds she had been longing for, Qiqi suddenly came over mysteriously.

"Actually, you don't have to use pheasants or hares. Didn't you buy some wood carvings today? Why don't you use those?"

Qiqi was thinking to herself that there was a very popular internet celebrity on TikTok recently who was promoting various handmade wood carvings, which led to a wood carving craze in the current market.

It has become almost impossible to find pure handmade wood carvings.

The old craftsmen cannot make such great progress.

The new craftsmen’s techniques are immature.

Machine carving has been eliminated by the market.

Therefore, he still valued the wood carving bought by Xia Shengsheng.

Even though that person had a miserable life, his craftsmanship was truly impeccable.

It’s just that no one advocated these things in ancient times.

When Xia Shengsheng was buying the wood carvings, he was unable to show up and tell Xia Shengsheng to buy more and he would pay for it all.

Otherwise, he would definitely make a fortune.

"Wood carving? You know I bought the wood carving? You're not spying on me, are you?"

Xia Shengsheng looked at Qiqi warily. Was her every move going to be monitored from now on? This was not a good feeling.

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't look at me like that! I'm not spying on you. I just can sense when you have something I need. It's not as serious as you say. We are still a society ruled by law! You can't spy on people at will."

After saying that, Qiqi used a wooden comb to comb his not-so-messy hair, and then looked at himself in the mirror narcissistically.

Xia Shengsheng rolled her eyes at him.

"It's good that you're not under surveillance. How are you going to collect the wood carving?"

It doesn’t matter what you sell. If the price is right, you don’t have to get up early tomorrow morning to climb the mountain.

"If it's a full set, it's 5000, but if it's without the animal, it'll be a big discount."

5000? Was this a calculated plan?

No, she had already given one to each of the children. There was no reason to ask for something back once it had been given away.

That leaves only eight.

"There are only eight of them, 5000, or I won't sell them!"

Xia Shengsheng also realized that Qiqi must really want those wood carvings.

If you want it, it's easy.

There has to be some bargaining.

"Why are there only eight? Where are the other four? Go ahead and chop them up and make some firewood?"

Qiqi is already ready to contact the buyer.

It is estimated that he can sell this set of twelve zodiac animals for 10 or 8 yuan.

Suddenly four of them were gone, and it felt like his heart was bleeding.

"You gave me some children! What? Do you want to accept them? 5000 won't buy you any loss or deception. Besides, this price is not expensive. It's much more fair than the price of the seeds you sold me. I'm not such a black-hearted person."

Xia Shengsheng thought she was very smart and felt that 5000 yuan was quite expensive to buy a few wood carvings.

But she never expected that Qiqi could make dozens of times the money by just reselling it.

Qiqi was very sad that the wood carvings could not be put together as a set.

But if you think about it, even if you sell them individually, you won't lose much, you can still make a lot of money.

Besides, the 5000 yuan will eventually return to him, so this deal is not a loss no matter how you look at it.

When I thought of this, I started cheering in my heart.

"Okay! Deal, one hand for the other hand?"

Seeing Qiqi agreed so readily, Xia Shengsheng suddenly felt a little regretful.

It's like after negotiating the price, the store owner immediately sells the item to him.

It means the price is too high.

But there is no chance to regret, right?

So she had no choice but to go out and get the remaining wood carvings in exchange for the corn seeds she had been longing for.

"By the way, can I leave the money I earned today with you? Is there any storage locker or something like that?"

Of course, valuable items should be placed where no one can see them.

Only in this way can you feel at peace!

"Of course there is. There is a locker at the entrance of the supermarket, but the space is not big. If you want to use it, I can rent it to you. The monthly rent is 500!"

The locker is free for customers who shop in the mall.

But Qiqi wanted to make some extra money, without using public funds.

After hearing this, Xia Shengsheng asked Qiqi to check the balance in the card.

I deducted one month's rent from the card first.

Only five taels of silver were left, and the rest were all stored in the locker.

Looking at the little balance left, I went shopping at the supermarket and bought a lot of things for the home.

Looking back, it can be said that I bought it back from the town.

Anyway, the kids didn’t rummage through her backpack.

I don’t know what’s inside!

I bought some cabbage and pork belly, and I plan to steam some meat buns for the kids tomorrow morning so they can finish all the cabbage.

So I made some more noodles before going to bed.

Xia Shengsheng slept exceptionally well that night. He had food in his hands and was not worried.

The next day, Xia Shengsheng heated up the milk she bought from the supermarket for the children and steamed a large pot of buns fried in cabbage oil.

The children were so tired that they were about to cry.

But no matter how touched I am, I still have to do my work.

Farming is hard work.

Xia Shengsheng asked the two youngest children, Liu Shanshan and Liu Sicheng, to stay at home to look after the house and also prepare lunch.

Because a lot of buns are steamed in the morning, at the end you just need to heat them up, which is quite simple.

Liu Yiyi and Liu Ercheng followed Xia Shengsheng to the field.

Xia Shengsheng didn't want the two of them to really do anything.

Just thinking about doing some work within my ability.

If you are tired, just play outside for a while.

Because even if she went to the fields herself and didn't let the two of them go, they wouldn't agree!

It would be better to take them out with her. She just needs to keep an eye on them. If they are really tired and dare to disobey and not rest, she will have to exercise her dignity as a mother and they will not dare to disobey.

Xia Shengsheng felt that her body had a certain muscle memory.

Because she had never been to the fields in her previous life, she quickly picked up farm work with the help of muscle memory.

It dries exceptionally smoothly.

Two acres of land was not a lot, so Xia Shengsheng took a few children to cultivate the land for three days and finally planted it completely.

Look at the seeds that have been planted in the ground.

Liu Yiyi and Liu Ercheng, who have been working all year round, couldn't help but feel worried.

This.

Can it be released?

What can come out?
