Shi Lei returned to his broken thatched house with a full load of food. The main purpose of selling firewood this time is to fill the stomach, of course, we must choose the cheapest soybeans, so that the most grain can be exchanged at one time.

Whoever made the Tang Dynasty decide the world at this time, it can be said that there are all kinds of wastes waiting to be rebuilt, and those common good grains can even reach the price of a horse of silk for one stone. Only soybeans have always been not lacking, only the backlog of beans in the former Sui is not known, this thing is difficult to digest, and it is easy to fart if you eat too much, and even accumulate food, and the price will naturally not go up.

And for Shi Lei, these problems have become advantages, since he has a plant transformation system, the digestion and absorption of any plant is particularly good, the weeds are all done, and the beans are naturally not a problem.

And this bean is cheap and sufficient, and the protein content is quite high, the average farmer wants to contribute to the big livestock and is afraid that they will lose weight, so they will choose this thing to add food to them, it can be seen that this bean is a good thing for "strong people", and it is perfect for Shi Lei.

With a stable source of food for the time being, Shi Lei finally lived a peaceful life, and every day was quite fulfilling, chopping wood, renovating his leaky thatched house, and then working hard to open up the wasteland.

As for going to Zongsheng Palace to sell firewood, Shi Lei only goes there once every few days, not that he doesn't have enough firewood, in fact, this job has become easier and easier for him, and he often gets it all done in the morning.

It's just that the variety of food exchanged for is a bit single, and I have been eating the beans to death, even if it is delicious, I can't stand it, not to mention Shi Lei, who is a foodie, I can't bear it at all. Therefore, he spends more time on improving his life, and from time to time he grabs some game and comes back with some oil and water.

And it feels very uncomfortable to put your lifeline on someone else like this, what if one day the Zongsheng Palace no longer needs firewood, will you have to go hungry and return to that kind of life that depends on wild vegetables to satisfy your hunger?

Therefore, Shi Lei has been eager to find another more stable way to ensure his food supply, and cultivating land is naturally the first choice.

This wasteland is relatively simple to open, and it is almost complete to go down the fire and try to pick out all kinds of stones, big and small. But what to do after that, Shi Lei found himself a little helpless.

Although he has tended to a lot of flowers and plants in his previous life, he has never done this thing of growing food, his parents have asked him to study seriously since he was a child, and he has not been allowed to interfere in farm work, and they have not lived in the countryside for a few years, Shi Lei's poor memory of farming has long dissipated with the wind.

And because of his thin body and his parents, he didn't master the skill of farming, otherwise he wouldn't have starved to death.

As for the transformation system, although it can let him know the function of these grains, it will not tell him how they are grown.

This made the situation Shi Lei faced very embarrassing, he had the land, but he didn't know how to plant it.

"Hey...... Impulsive, still impulsive. Shi Lei looked at the land in front of him, shook his head with some regret and sighed, the sense of accomplishment at the beginning was gone.

But this land has finally been opened, and it can't be directly abandoned, so you can only plant something casually in line with the idea of being a dead horse as a live horse doctor, as for whether you can live or not, how the harvest is, it still depends on whether God appreciates the food.

During this period, he also made a special trip to the Zongsheng Palace to send some firewood, but the food he exchanged for this time was all those types that he had not had before, and the quantity was much less than before. These were apparently brought back for seeds, because there were only those soybeans left at home.

Regardless of whether they need seedlings or direct sowing, in short, a small part of these grains are made out of the brain, buried in the ground as seeds, and then watered, hoping that they can take root and sprout.

After finishing this thankless task, Shi Lei sat down honestly and seriously pondered where the way out in front of him was. If you want to have a positive livelihood, it is more reliable to honestly land on the system, and you still have to deal with plants.

The first thing he can think of is that the financial road must revolve around the bonsai, after all, he has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he is very familiar with these, and the price of this thing can be very high, the key is to have a beautiful tree shape, enough years, and of course, meet a person who likes it enough.

In addition, the type of tree is also a very important determining factor, and some fast-growing trees are often not as valuable as those that grow slowly or are rare.

The experience he gained from his parents also taught him that popularity is also a very important factor. Let's just say that in Yizhou City, where he was in his previous life, osmanthus was very popular, and some osmanthus kings who were old enough had news of transactions at a high price of hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands from time to time.

But later, after the osmanthus was snubbed, the original tens of thousands of osmanthus often ended up in a bleak situation with no price, and some simply sold it at a price of one or two thousand. It can be seen that whether it is popular or not has a very big impact on the price of this kind of thing that can be regarded as a pleasure.

Unfortunately, after he came to Datang, he didn't even go out of the mountains, and he really had no clue about what kind of flowers and trees were popular in Chang'an City.

And this thing also needs enough time to trim, in order to grow into the ideal shape, those bonsai that sold for millions or even tens of millions of sky-high prices in later generations, many of them are only after several generations of unremitting efforts, occasionally there are one or two born and raised, it is definitely a blessing to invite the sky.

In addition to gambling on his luck, Shi Lei wants to make a fortune in the short term, which is obviously unrealistic.

almost scratched his scalp, Shi Lei finally came up with a seemingly reliable idea, that is, wood carving.

Shi Lei can be said to be a relatively homely person in his previous life, in addition to having to go out for work reasons, most of his own time is usually spent on his hobbies, reading books, listening to music, of course, as a qualified foodie, it is also essential to give himself all kinds of delicious food.

In addition, there is also a very important hobby is to do carpentry work, and I am naturally involved in wood carving, although I dare not say how profound the skills are, but I also know the techniques that should be understood.

Besides, doesn't he have a transformation system now, and he can be said to know these plants well, and if he wants to make wood carvings by himself, it should not be difficult to fully express his ideas.

It's just that these are just speculations, and as for what the specific situation is, you have to find some wood to try it out to know.
