After lunch, the family went to the wasteland, Xiao'er didn't follow, she took this opportunity to go up the mountain, and then came to the unlucky forest that Jing Rui said, Xiao'er suspected that the tree they were talking about was a rubber tree, and now she saw a rubber tree that she had seen in her previous life, and she couldn't help but feel a little excited in her heart, and at the same time felt strange that according to the memory of the original owner, the climate here is not suitable for planting rubber trees, why are there rubber trees here?

"There's geothermal heat nearby, which affects the warmer climate here. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info "Speak at the right time during the day.

Xiao'er nodded, there are no wonders in the world, and the natural world is even more mysterious, but even if there is geothermal heat nearby, it is difficult to use, so she didn't dwell on this problem, took a sickle to cut a hole, and began to connect latex with a wooden barrel. In the design she gave Shangguan Xuanyi before, there was a hand-cranked water pump, in which she needed to make a rubber sealing ring set on the press tube, and she just used these latex to see if she could make it.

She moved two smaller rubber trees to the space for later use, and after connecting the latex, she put the whole bucket into the space and went down the mountain, and when she went down the mountain, she collected two pheasants and raised them in the space.

The ginseng in the space was already very large, she found a relatively small one, and when she was ready to take it outside, she said that she had picked it in the mountain, and then took out several herbs grown in the space and went down the mountain. When she returned home, she didn't see anyone, so she took a sack of herbs, put the ginseng in the bag, locked the door of the room, made some bait, and walked to the village with two baskets.

"Brother, why don't you go catch some fish and eat it tonight?"

When the two heard Xiao'er's words, they hurriedly put down the work in their hands and ran to her, "Sister, are you going to catch fish? Why don't you bring a bucket? How can you hold fish without a bucket?"

"Well, Hao'er has thought it through, you go and ask your father to help us pull a bucket with the car to go to the river, let's catch more fish, and add food to the people who help us open up the wasteland tonight." ”

Jing Hao hurriedly ran to talk to Shen Chengyao, and Shen Chengyao put down his work and went back to help a few children transport Mutong.

Came to the river, Shen Chengyao and the two brothers were responsible for fishing, she did not go down to the river, the river water at this time was very cold, Shen Chengyao repeatedly told Xiao'er not to allow her to go into the water, Xiao'er took a bamboo and tinkered with the stones by the river, Shen Chengyao saw it and didn't stop it, thinking that she was just playful, Xiao'er saw that the three of them didn't pay attention and put the three extra-large river mussels into the three stones in the water, and then put some small ones, before shouting: "Dad, Dad, come and see!"

Shen Chengyao heard Xiao'er's shout, glanced back, and saw Xiao'er standing on the stone well, so he put his mind at ease, and then scooped up the basket in the water, brought it to the shore, and asked Jing Hao to pick up the fish into the bucket, and he walked to Xiao'er's side.

"Xiao'er saw something, is it a river crab?"

Xiao'er beckoned, looking very anxious, "Dad, hurry up, come and take a look." ”

Shen Chengyao came to Xiao'er's side, Xiao'er picked up the river mussel in the water with bamboo, Shen Chengyao saw a river mussel in the river that grew as big as a small pumpkin, and reached out to scoop it up from the water, "Hey, this river mussel has grown into a fine essence?"

"Dad, I've heard that mussels can grow pearls, so let's break them open and take a look. ”

When the two brothers heard this, they stopped fishing and ran over to look at the giant mussel, "Dad, let's see if there are any pearls in it!"

Jing Hao picked up a stone and handed it to Shen Chengyao, he took it and just wanted to smash it down, but Xiao'er hurriedly stopped, "No, if Dad has a pearl to smash like this, it will be broken!"

"It's so tightly closed that you can't break it with your hands!"

"I'll go home and get a kitchen knife!" Jing Hao finished speaking and ran away.

"I'll look and see if there's anything else. Jing Rui buried his head in finding it seriously.

"There's another one here, this one is bigger!" Jing Rui picked up the mussels in the water, held them up happily and waved them.

Seeing this, Shen Chengyao also seriously searched for it in the river, and Xiao'er naturally searched for it together, and after a while, he found all the river mussels that were put in.

Jing Hao soon came over with a kitchen knife, and this kid was also smart and brought a back basket and cloth.

Shen Chengyao took a kitchen knife and carefully cut the shell of the mussel, and a black apple pearl was exposed, and the black nacre glowed with blue-purple light in the sun, Shen Chengyao took out the pearl, cleaned it in the river, and turned it again, the strong metallic luster of the black pearl changed with the rotation of various colorful colors, and the more beautiful and luster.

"Can black pearls be sold for money?" Jing Hao was a little worried.

"Black pearl is a very valuable pearl variety, it symbolizes the crystallization of the hardest years, it is called the most painful tears of the oyster, it is rare and a symbol of nobility because it has endured hardships."

"That's worth a lot of money?!" He has been worrying lately that his family will run out of money after the panic and the house.

"Dad, cut the rest of the mussels and see if there are any pearls. Jing Rui looked at a small pile of river mussels on the ground, and his heart couldn't stop being excited.

Shen Chengyao picked up another large river mussel and cut it more carefully, revealing another purple pearl the size of a goose egg.

"Purple, it's a purple pearl, it's so beautiful!" Jing Hao jumped up happily, "Daddy go on, cut it quickly." ”

Shen Chengyao picked up the pearl and cleaned it, Xiao'er spread the back basket brought by Jing Hao with a cloth, and then put the black pearl and purple pearl into it, and the two brothers looked at the two pearls inside around the back basket and were reluctant to blink.

Shen Chengyao cut the last giant mussel, this time it was a pearl with a white fist, brilliant and dazzling. The remaining smaller mussels also cut out a lot of pearls the size of a fish's eye, some pink, golden yellow, and blue, each with more than ten or twenty pearls.

Shen Chengyao forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, "Rui'er, you go and mow some grass and put it on the back basket." The fish will not be caught first, and we will catch it tomorrow, now let's go home first. ”

Xiao'er had already gone to dig some wild vegetables when the three of them were seriously immersed in the great cause of pearl cutting, "Dad, I dug up some wild vegetables, just put the wild vegetables on it." ”

Shen Chengyao nodded, put the wild vegetables in the back basket, and after making sure that he couldn't see what was hidden underneath, he carried the bucket containing the fish and the two baskets onto the cart, and put the basket on the cart, and then pretended to be calm and pushed the cart, stepping on the floating footsteps to go home.

Greeting someone familiar on the road is almost a non-answer. Confused, Xiao'er couldn't help but bow her head and snicker.

As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he saw the Li family coming out of the west wing, and saw them carrying a large bucket, and their eyes were shining brightly, Shen Chengyao thought that she knew that there were pearls in the back basket, and he was startled.

Li Shi pounced on the bucket and saw that there were more than ten big fish in it, and his eyes were shining, "Third brother, my family just didn't have any vegetables tonight, this fish?"

Shen Chengyao saw that the Li family just wanted fish, so he exhaled lightly, "If the second sister-in-law wants to eat fish, just pick two." ”

Hearing this, Li unceremoniously caught the two largest fish inside.

"Dad, let's send a few fish to my grandmother and fourth uncle's house, I'll cook first." Xiao'er ignored her, picked up the basket naturally, and then went back to the west wing.

Several people secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xiao'er returning to the house with the basket on her back.
