A farmer has a shrewish wife; he's busy making money every day.

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Ye Qingxue got up, carried a basket of purple bamboo grass on her back, and set off for the county on her donkey.

It has to be said that Debao is really amazing after drinking the spiritual spring water; his hooves are clattering powerfully.

That's why donkeys are also animals of the genus Equus in the family Equidae; some are even used as horses!

Not to mention that this Debao is the king of donkeys, the Texas donkey!

In less than an hour, Debao brought Ye Qingxue to Qingshui County.

A stone plaque from Qingshui County stands at the entrance, next to which stands a burly man.

Ye Qingxue was riding her donkey, about to go in, when she was stopped by the big man.

"Wait, young lady, you haven't paid your toll yet."

Ye Qingxue glanced at him: "What?"

The big man chuckled: "Judging from your appearance, young lady, you've never been to our county before. You must be from that deserted village next door. I'm in a good mood today, so I'll introduce you."

He wiped his oil-stained hands on his clothes and continued, "Our Qingshui County has its own rules. Outsiders who want to come in and earn grain have to pay a toll and can't stay for more than a day. Otherwise, all sorts of cats and dogs would want to come to our county to earn money, and wouldn't that be chaos?"

Ye Qingxue asked, "Are you from the county government?"

Population management is usually handled by the county government.

The burly man waved his hand dismissively: "Hey, what can the county government do these days? You still have to use your fists to settle things."

As he spoke, the burly man brandished his large fist and waved it in front of Ye Qingxue.

Ye Qingxue understood. No wonder the people from the deserted village didn't come to Qingshui County often; they had to pay a toll!

The people in the deserted village were barely surviving, so where would they find the extra food to pay for the passage?

Normally, if someone has a skill, they can take it to the county to sell and earn money, then use that money to buy grain back home.

Now things are really messed up; these thugs have completely blocked the villagers' path.

Ye Qingxue dismounted from the donkey with a blank expression and walked up to the big man.

"Which street are you from?"

The burly man chuckled a few times and announced his name: "Wolf Fu, the third leader of Fierce Tiger Stronghold!"

Ye Qingxue couldn't help but smile when she heard the name.

Wolf Fu, still basking in his own imposing aura, was momentarily stunned.

"why are you laughing!"

"I'm laughing at your rustic name! Did you choose it yourself?"

This is blatant mockery.

Wolf Rich had never been treated like this before, and he was so angry that the flesh on his face was trembling.

Ye Qingxue didn't care about his mood. She led the donkey past Lang Fu and headed into Qingshui County.

Wolf Fu instantly flew into a rage, his filthy hand about to touch Ye Qingxue's shoulder.

"If there's no toll, you can exchange yourself for it."

A sticky, disgusting sound came from behind Ye Qingxue.

Her gaze suddenly shifted, flashing with a sharp light.

"court death!"

Ye Qingxue instantly turned her head, grabbed Lang Fu's wrist, and suddenly circulated her dantian energy, pulling him forward forcefully!

With a powerful over-the-shoulder throw, Wolf Fu lay on the ground howling in pain.

"You...you woman! How dare you!"

Ye Qingxue walked forward expressionlessly, and when she reached Lang Fu, she suddenly raised her right leg and quickly landed it, stomping hard on Lang Fu's chest.

"Cough cough cough!" Wolf Fu let out a series of deafening coughs.

Ye Qingxue glanced down and said, "A good dog doesn't block the way."

Then he kicked Lang Fu in the temple, and Lang Fu immediately lost consciousness.

Then Ye Qingxue entered Qingshui County.

The county was indeed much more lively than the deserted village, with many shops along the street constantly hawking their wares.

Compared to the deserted village, it's like heaven and earth!

They found a pharmacy, and the shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he saw Ye Qingxue's basket of purple bamboo grass.

After negotiating a price with the shopkeeper—50 coins per Purple Bamboo Grass—Ye Qingxue sold all the Purple Bamboo Grass she had obtained.

Twenty-seven purple bamboo grass plants cost a total of 1,350 coins, which is one tael of silver plus 350 coins.

Ye Qingxue hid the money bag and walked out of the pharmacy with a happy smile.

She even discussed it with the shopkeeper, and they agreed that they could ship all their goods from him from now on!

She finally has money!

"Ding—Task completed, one cubic meter storage room opened, and a newbie gift pack is awarded."
