Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

"Where's the youngest?"

Liu Xiao'e couldn't help asking when she didn't see her little girl after walking around the house just now.

Gu Jiu held the tea tray and let the children choose their favorite snacks. When he heard his mother-in-law's question, he turned around and replied, "I followed my sister-in-law to the private plot to get some vegetables."

"Oh."

Liu Xiao'e pulled down her two sleeves, went back to the house and went about her own business.

At this moment, Lin Shu, as they were calling him, was looking at the green spinach with envy.

"Sister-in-law, how long have these spinach been planted?"

"About twenty days." He Caiyun had already reached out and started picking out the big spinach plants.

There are some vegetable seedlings next to it, and a few beds of radish seedlings, but the radish seedlings are growing too densely.

"Sister-in-law, we need to thin out the radish seedlings. They are too dense."

"It's about picking out some small rooms."

"In fact, if you blanch the radish sprouts and chop them up, they are delicious when cooked with taro."

He Caiyun straightened up and looked at the radish sprouts in surprise: "Radish sprouts can be eaten fresh, and at home, the most we can do is pickle some salt vegetables."

"The tender ones are edible." Lin Shu walked over and thinned out some of the denser radish seedlings.

I pulled enough to cook a bowl of soup and then stopped.

He Caiyun smiled and said, "We do have taro at home. When we get back later, you can teach me how to make it and I'll make it for you."

Lin Shu looked at his private plot where he planted all kinds of vegetables, and felt that it was still the most enjoyable to eat the vegetables he grew himself, and the taste was naturally the best.

"Sister-in-law, you and your second sister-in-law are both good at cooking. Have you ever thought about opening a shop in the city?"

"Open a shop?"

He Caiyun didn't think much about it, she just thought Lin Shu asked casually, and said with a smile: "Is my cooking skill good enough?"

"Sister-in-law, your cooking skills are pretty good."

Naturally, the dishes she made were not as delicious as hers. Lin Shu felt that as long as he had all the ingredients, added enough oil, and practiced more, he could open a small restaurant.

He Caiyun laughed out loud: "Don't praise me anymore. If you praise me as being better than the chefs at state-owned restaurants, I might believe it."

Lin Shu smiled. After eating the dishes she cooked for so many years, she still knew whether they were delicious or not.

He Caiyun picked half a basket of spinach, enough for her family to eat for two meals, and then began to weed with a hoe. After weeding, she would also fertilize the vegetables.

Looking at the weeds growing in the vegetable patch, Lin Shu pulled one out and found that the rhizome underground was growing quite well and was thicker than those in the wild.

"Sister-in-law, you can keep the rhizomes underneath this sedge. It's a medicinal herb."

"What? You said this sedge root is a medicinal herb?"

He Caiyun never expected that the most annoying grass in the field turned out to be a medicinal herb?

You have to know that this kind of sedge is very tenacious. Not long after you weed it, it will grow again in the ground.

Lin Shu explained: "We call this grass sedge in the countryside, but its scientific name is Cyperus rotundus. The reason why we can't weed it out is because of its rhizomes."

As he spoke, Lin Shu carefully pulled out a complete root system. "Look, there is a very thin root between the plant and the rhizome, and it is connected to the tuber below. This is the famous Cyperus rotundus. The grass we usually pull out is cut off from this thin root, and its tuber remains in the ground. So, it will sprout again in a short time."

It is mild but not cold, fragrant and has a penetrating effect. This is the famous herb - Cyperus rotundus.

The tuber is used as medicine, with a spicy, slightly bitter and sweet taste and a neutral nature.

The system purchase price is two yuan per kilogram, which is of good value, but a little difficult to dig.

"Hey, we can weed the land and bring back some herbs?"

He Caiyun was happy when she heard that these medicinal herbs could be exchanged for money.

She no longer felt annoyed by the endless weeds. For a moment, she even hoped they would grow more so that she could dig them all up and exchange them for money.

After all, it was a private plot that was regularly tended to, so there were not many Cyperus rotundus. After the two of them had weeded, sister-in-law He Caiyun began to apply fertilizer.

Lin Shu had nothing to do, so he went into the woods not far from the vegetable garden.

Because their village is located in a remote area, the vegetation is well protected and many big trees can be seen in the forest.

As soon as you enter the forest, you will see several golden vines.

King Kong vine is also known as Smilax china and red lantern fruit. It is dioecious and its rhizome can be used as medicine.

The roots of the golden vine and the wild yam are very similar in appearance. The one with thorns is the golden vine, and the one without thorns is the wild yam.

I dug out a few golden vines and sold them to the system. When I looked up inadvertently, I noticed that the big tree next to me was full of drynaria.

Drynaria is also called cliff ginger and monkey ginger. Just by listening to the name, you know that it is very powerful, and its name was given by Emperor Minghuang of Tang himself.

The back of the leaves of Drynaria fortunei are covered with spore powder, and the rhizomes are covered with golden velvet, which looks like ginger, so it is called monkey ginger and can be harvested all year round.

Lin Shu went around a few trees and harvested everything within his reach. He couldn't reach any higher and there was no ladder available.

[System, there are so many bone-breaking buds on these trees that I can't pick them. What should I do? ]

[Is the host enabled for media collection? ]

Lin Shu was stunned for a moment. He just asked casually without holding out hope. He didn't expect that the system actually had other functions that could be activated.

[What is media collection? How to activate it? What are the requirements? ]

Lin Shu knows that there is no free lunch in the world and that only hard work can bring rewards.

[Returning to the host, the medium collection means that you touch the trunk, and the bone-breaking bulrushes connected to the trunk can be directly collected and returned to the system. ]

Lin Shu looked at the Drynaria fortunei above his head in shock, [You mean to say that if I activate this medium collection function, as long as I touch this tree trunk, the herbs on it can be automatically collected into the system? ]

[Replying to the host, you can understand it this way. ]

hiss!

This feature is invincible.

[Host, 5,000 points are required to activate this function. Would you like to activate it? ]

Lin Shu took a look at his current points. Last time he had accumulated 10,000 points. Excluding the points for upgrading the system mall, he later accumulated some more points. Now he only had less than 9,000 points.

If five thousand is deducted, there will only be four thousand points left. The next upgrade will require one hundred thousand. When will she be able to upgrade?

[If the host is reluctant to give up points, the balance can be used to offset. ]

Lin Shu glanced at the balance of more than 16,000 yuan, which was the remaining balance after she spent money during this period, and she was reluctant to spend it.

I looked up at the monkey ginger on the tree, gritted my teeth, and [activate the media collection function and deduct points.]

As soon as she finished speaking, the points in the first level started to roll rapidly, and soon the nine thousand points stopped at less than four thousand.

3980

[Congratulations to the host for opening the media collection function. With this function, I hope the host will continue to work hard and collect more herbs. ]

Lin Shu was excited when he heard this, and hugged the tree trunk with both hands, [System, how do I collect it? ]

【Return to the host, silently recite "collect".】

Lin Shu did as he was told. As soon as he thought about it, all the Drynariae growing on the trunk and main branches of the big tree above his head disappeared.

It’s so fantasy!

[Ding, I have collected 12 kilograms of Drynaria herb, worth 36 yuan, and it has been automatically deposited into my balance. ]

"Damn, this function is amazing!" Lin Shu couldn't help but excitedly utter the Chinese quintessence.

try again.
