After going to the countryside, I rely on the sign-in system to bring my sisters along
Chapter 213 Cooperation
She started processing bamboo shoots again. The four of them had been picking bamboo shoots for her for nearly four months. How could they be consumed so easily?
After processing 200 kilograms of bamboo shoots, Wenxi packed them when the bamboo shoots were no longer so hot. Then he went out for a nap and fell asleep to the sound of cicadas in the mountains.
When Wenxi woke up, she felt her back was hot and sticky and very uncomfortable. She quickly got up to fetch some cool well water, wiped the mattress, and then fetched a bucket of heated water to the bathroom. She took a comfortable bath and put on thin long-sleeved shirt and trousers.
The house was quiet. Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue had already left before she woke up.
Wen Xi came to the kitchen and put all the mushrooms piled on the ground into the system warehouse, and then took the pheasant that Shen Jiaojiao had prepared to the system kitchen.
Chop the pheasant into small pieces, blanch it, wash it again, and then stew it in the pot.
There was no need to worry about the pheasants, and Wenxi went on to clean the mushrooms. The high-tech smart machine suddenly had an additional function of "cleaning mushrooms", so Wenxi put the mushrooms in according to different varieties. After the machine stopped working, the mushrooms that had just been put in were clean.
After Wenxi cleaned all the mushrooms picked today, he left two-thirds in the system warehouse to eat fresh later, and placed the remaining one-third in the yard to dry. With such high temperatures in July, it would take about two days to dry and pack them.
After almost finishing all the things at home, Wenxi put on a straw hat, took his backpack and basket and went out. After walking a few steps, he turned around and walked back, then walked towards Donghua's house.
Donghua's father's house was sold to Gu Huaian and other three people. Donghua now lives in her grandparents' old house. Today is a day off for everyone, so Donghua naturally doesn't need to go to work.
Wenxi arrived outside of Donghua's grandparents' house and saw that the door was not locked, so she reached out and knocked on it. Soon Donghua came over and opened the door. Seeing Wenxi standing outside, she smiled brightly, "Sister Wen, why are you here? Do you have something to talk to me about?"
"It's like this, Donghua. I want to send some dried mushrooms back home. I have a lot of relatives and I need a lot of dried mushrooms, but I can't pick that many by myself. If you help me pick them, I'll pay you one cent per pound. Is that okay?" Wen Xi asked.
"Really?" Donghua's eyes lit up when she heard this and she looked at Wenxi in disbelief.
One cent per pound, she can pick hundreds of pounds a day, that's one dollar!
Wen Xi nodded, then took out the big-foot mushrooms, also known as boletus, that he had prepared in advance from the basket and said, "I want this mushroom. You can pick it for me and send it to the foot of the mountain behind my house after dark."
Donghua nodded happily, "Sister Wen, I understand. I will help you pick out good mushrooms."
Donghua agreed, and Wenxi went to find the children who had caught cicadas, monkeys and frogs before, and asked them to help her pick mushrooms. However, each person picked different varieties because she didn't want to spend time sorting them slowly.
After everything was settled, Wen Xi went up the mountain to pick mushrooms. She did not go out of her way to look for Shen Jiaojiao and the others, as the nearby mountains were not very high and there was no danger.
For fear of being seen, Wenxi did not cheat anymore. Instead, after his backpack and basket were full, he took the mushrooms home and stored them in the system warehouse.
Cleaning mushrooms takes too much time, so let Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue think that she was cleaning mushrooms at home in the afternoon and did not go out!
When Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue came back, they saw the bamboo mat in the yard full of cleanly washed mushrooms drying in the sun. They were both very surprised, "Xiaoxi, you washed all the mushrooms? Why didn't you wait for us to come back and wash them together?"
Wen Xi smiled faintly. How could she cheat if she was taking a shower with them?
Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue poured the mushrooms in the kitchen and went out to pick mushrooms. They wanted to pick more mushrooms while having today off, because they had to go to work tomorrow and would not be able to pick mushrooms anymore.
In the evening, Wen Xi brought out chicken stewed with mushrooms from the system kitchen and three bowls of watermelon. After Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue came back and washed their hands and faces, Wen Xi quickly brought them the watermelon that had been chilled with ice cubes at the bottom of the bowl so that they could cool down.
They didn't know all these things, they just thought that Wenxi had chilled the watermelons in the well. The water in the well was icy cold, and the soaked fruits were especially delicious.
In the evening, after Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue went out, Wen Xi first collected the mushrooms they picked, and then went to the foot of the mountain behind the house. She saw several children who helped her pick mushrooms were already waiting there, and each of them had a lot of mushrooms at their feet.
Wen Xi couldn't take out the scale, so he said to them, "I don't have a scale to weigh now, so I'll give you a few cents each. After I weigh, I'll give you the money tomorrow night. Is that okay?"
"Sister Xiaoxi, it's okay. We believe in Sister Xiaoxi."
"Sister Wen, I believe you."
Donghua and another girl said in unison.
Wenxi took out a piece of paper and wrote down their names and the types of mushrooms they were responsible for. Then he weighed the mushrooms with his hand and gave each person fifty cents. He would pay the rest tomorrow night.
The children poured out the mushrooms on the ground, and went back with backpacks, baskets and sacks. Wenxi waited for them to leave for a few minutes before collecting the mushrooms on the ground into the system warehouse. He then weighed them one by one and recorded the quantity and amount behind their names.
After that, Wen Xi went to deal with his own affairs.
The next morning, Wen Xi took out the breakfast that had been prepared long ago from the system kitchen, kept it in the pot, left a note for them, and went up the mountain. The watermelons were ripe, and she had to hurry to the waterfall to pick them.
When Wenxi went out, the sky was just getting light. By the time he reached the waterfall, the sky was already bright and the whole world was filled with bright and dazzling light.
However, when Wen Xi walked in the woods, no matter how bright the sunlight was, it could not affect her.
Arriving at the stream, Wenxi first washed her hands and face with the cool stream water, and then went to pick vegetables. She had previously planted climbing vegetables such as lentils, loofahs, and bitter gourds here, and since she had been diligent in taking care of them here, these vegetables were growing well and could be picked.
Wenxi left the three largest ones for seeds, and then picked all that could be picked. The vegetables in the morning were lush green and especially fresh.
She picked them one by one with scissors and put them into the basket. She waited until the basket was full before putting them into the system warehouse. Then she went to pick lentils. Unexpectedly, the lentils were of the purple variety. They looked very fresh and plump. She left the roundest and plump ones as seeds and picked the rest.
