Chapter Twenty-Nine: Picking Up Money
Most mushrooms don't like sunlight very much, Ma Xiaodong doesn't know what kind of environment morel mushrooms like, but it is estimated that it is similar to other mushrooms, and it should be in a cool and humid place. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info this hillside is low, in the middle of two tall slopes, the sun shines less, and it looks a little gloomy.
Coming to the hillside, Ma Xiaodong began to look carefully, the environment here is a bit gloomy, and the noon sun can't shine in. The little girl looked at Ma Xiaodong wandering around, and asked curiously, "Xiaodong, what are you looking for?"
Ma Xiaodong replied while looking for it: "It's a small mushroom like a honeycomb." ”
"What are you looking for that mushroom?"
"Sell for money. ”
"Is it worth a lot?"
"That's right!"
"How did I not know?"
"You little brat, what do you know?"
"I hate you. ”
The two were bickering while looking for mushrooms, "Brother Xiaodong, look at it, is that the case?"
Ma Xiaodong looked in the direction of the little girl's finger, and suddenly his eyes lit up, a large piece of morel mushrooms was in a small depression, because under the shade of the tree, the morel mushrooms were very small, so they were very inconspicuous.
Finally found his morel mushroom, Ma Xiaodong seemed to see a large pile of banknotes growing on the ground, and excitedly hugged the little girl's head and kissed it fiercely, "Little girl, I love you to death, that's right, this is it." With that, he spread his feet and ran over.
The poor little girl was stunned again, and was attacked by Ma Xiaodong, but she didn't react, and when Ma Xiaodong ran away, she lowered her head with a blushing face, muttering "hate" in her mouth, but that shameful look looked like she was snickering.
Ma Xiaodong ran to the mushroom and carefully picked one from the ground, this morel mushroom is about a little bigger than his thumb, and the small honeycomb-like umbrella cover on the top is densely packed with small holes, people with cheats and phobia can't see it, it smells like a faint mushroom fragrance, nothing special, but it's such a small thing, one is worth about 20 yuan.
Such a large piece is like picking up money, and Ma Xiaodong's mouth can't be closed.
The little girl was finally shy and finished, and ran over to help Ma Xiaodong pick up mushrooms together, looking at the mushrooms she had never seen before, the little girl asked curiously: "Brother Xiaodong, is this mushroom very valuable?"
Ma Xiaodong said without raising his head: "Yes, it is more valuable than the hazelnut mushrooms you picked, but no one in our town collects them, so I have to take them to the city to sell." "Ma Xiaodong has already thought about it, go home and dry these 'morel mushrooms', and find an opportunity to sell them in the city in a few days. Make money, start another plan of your own, strive to buy the shop in the town as soon as possible, it is best to buy the whole street, then you will be the biggest landlord in the town, you have nothing to do all day long, go to the street to tease the little daughter-in-law and big girl, that day is simply a fairy not to change.
"You have to go to the city to sell it? Can you find a place?" The city basically exists on TV for the little girl, and she never thought that she would go there one day.
"If you can't find it, you can ask, get in a taxi, just tell them the place and they'll take you there." Although it may be detoured, this Ma Xiaodong didn't say it, the little girl is still young, so she doesn't need to talk to her about this.
The little girl suddenly said, "Ah, I know about taxis, I've seen them on TV, but will it cost a lot of money to take a taxi?"
"Well, depending on how far you are going, it is usually 7 cents a mile. "At this time, taxis are about 1 yuan to 1 yuan and 5 jiao per kilometer.
"It's expensive, will anyone sit on it?"
"Yes, someone will open, someone will sit. ”
The two chatted about trivial things while picking mushrooms, most of them were asked by the little girl, and Ma Xiaodong replied. This makes the little girl have a sense of worship that Xiaodong knows everything.
It took more than an hour for the two of them to pick all the 'morel mushrooms' on the ground, and filled a full back basket, which was covered with Ma Xiaodong's clothes to prevent the mushrooms from falling out. Ma Xiaodong carried it, 'so heavy' has to be a hundred catties, such a weight is too difficult for Ma Xiaodong now, and he can't carry it.
"Let's carry it!" the little girl looked at Ma Xiaodong with a worried face.
Helplessly put down the back basket, Ma Xiaodong sighed, although he felt sorry for the little girl, but these are all money, which is related to the happy future of the two, so he can only carry it. "Well, well, I'll carry your basket on my back, and we'll just carry it up the hill where we agreed to turn. Finding a stick, tying it to the shoulder strap of the basket, the two of them struggled forward.
After walking for a while, seeing the little girl's tired face flushed and sweat left, Ma Xiaodong felt distressed for a while, "Girl, stop, let's rest." ”
The two put down the basket and took a breath, although the little girl always worked at home and exercised a little strength, but after all, she was a girl, only 13 years old, and such a heavy thing was still very difficult for her, and fortunately Ma Xiaodong sent the wooden sticks to her, and most of the weight was left on her side, otherwise the girl would not be able to lift it at all.
Lovingly wiped the sweat off the little girl's face, Ma Xiaodong said: "Stop, let's not lift it, I'll go find a male classmate to help." After speaking, he stood on the top of the hillside, his eyes swept away, and it was a coincidence that he happened to see Zhou Wanquan picking mushrooms on the ground with his butt pouting.
As soon as Ma Xiaodong was happy, it was you, and shouted at Zhou Wanquan: "Zhou Wanquan, come here." ”
Zhou Wanquan looked up and saw that it was Ma Xiaodong, "What are you doing? I have mushrooms here." "I just came across a few mushrooms, and of course Zhou Wanquan didn't want to throw them away.
"Come and do me a favor. ”
"Wait until I pick these off. Although he was a little reluctant, Zhou Wanquan still agreed, in case he offended Ma Xiaodong, he would be unlucky to find an opportunity to clean himself up in the future, if Ma Xiaodong knew, he would definitely cry out for injustice, he is thirty years old, do you care about you as a child.
After a while, Zhou Wanquan walked over after picking mushrooms, and saw the big back basket covered by Ma Xiaodong's clothes, and was dumbfounded, "You... Why are you picking so many mushrooms?" No wonder he was surprised, it's been a day, and his little back basket hasn't been filled yet, and Ma Xiaodong can't fit it anymore.
Ma Xiaodong said with a smile: "Luckily, you see that Yun Feiyan's back basket is full." "In the place where morel mushrooms have grown, not only are there many morel mushrooms, but also hazel mushrooms, so Yun Feiyan also picked a lot. However, Ma Xiaodong did not give Yun Feiyan morel mushrooms. It's not that he is reluctant to pay, the main thing is that she can't sell it to the little girl now, if she tells her family that this mushroom is valuable, the family probably won't believe it.
