Chapter 263: Money is Hard to Earn

When a load of grain baskets is filled, you have to carry it home to Sun's house, and then pick up an empty grain basket.

The yield of one mu of rice is less than two quintals, and when all the millet of this acre and a half is down, the third quintal is less than half.

Although the speed of harvesting has been far beyond their expectations.

But seeing that it was still early, Xue Langjing cut about two deniers (one acre is ten deniers) of land, and filled the third grain basket with seven or eight points.

By this time, it was almost dark, and the three of them packed up their things and went home.

There weren't many things to bring back, so Xue Langjing was carrying the burden, and the Sun family and grandchildren basically didn't take anything except a dustpan and a sickle.

The rest of nature remains in the fields, and tomorrow we will continue to fight.

Back at Sun's house, there are not such good conditions here for Xue Langjing to take a hot bath or a medicinal bath, so she can only take a cold shower, and her fatigue on this day can only be recovered by rest.

If you eat at Sun's house in the evening, it will be another five cents.

Sleep for a night, pennies.

Coupled with the meal at noon, a total of thirteen cents were spent today.

And what she earned, about 100 cents.

This is half a day, and you can get about 200 yuan a day.

Those valley guests can only earn more than 20 wen a day at most, and 200 wen seems like a lot.

But in fact, when she left the village, the daily expenses were large, and the income of this day was probably not enough for her to use for two days.

This time it happened to be just in time, so you can't have this luck every day in the future, right?

It is conceivable that before arriving in Wuping City, during this period of time, her life is going to be difficult.

Therefore, she has to take this opportunity to earn all the money from the threshing here and save some money for herself.

She didn't leave any money with her, and she was afraid that she would only go hungry if the incident happened again at noon.

And harvesting rice can also exercise yourself, and it's not really just to earn that little money.

When she was threshing, she tried to feel the strange ability again, but unfortunately it didn't work in the end, so she had to try again tomorrow, and this thing had to be persistent.

Before today, Xue Langjing probably never thought that she would have so many properties in her name now, and she would one day live by calculating money like this.

Even a copper plate has to be neatly organized, and I can't wait to break a penny in half. Let her experience poverty again so quickly.

Of course, in fact, there are a lot of gains today, at least I know how to write about things outside the one acre and three points of land in my village, such as the current situation of my country, as well as the image of my own family in the eyes of outsiders, and many things that I didn't know before.

Could it be that this is the experience that Lin Chu and the others said?

She doesn't know, maybe she can't understand until she's experienced enough!

Although I only did half a day's farm work today, the physical exertion was greater than that of hunting for half a day.

After all, when hunting normally, it is impossible to exert so much effort all the time, and most of the time it is stop-and-go.

Her lesson is that don't underestimate farm work, it looks safe and stable, and if you really put in the energy, it's actually more tiring than hunting.

Unexpectedly, after only one day of training, she seems to have learned a lot!

Naturally, though, that's a good thing.

Summing up today's experience, Xue Langjing no longer thought about this, but thought of another thing.

Usually before she fell asleep, she had to take a period of time to study and practice calligraphy, but now where is the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for her to learn calligraphy? There will be no books for her to read.

This problem has to be solved, if it is not solved, she will only be able to hold the pen after reaching Wuping City.

However, the ancients said well that you must learn to study and learn from time to time, and if you don't practice for a long time, I'm afraid that what you have learned in the past will be wasted!

Therefore, she had to earn more money, at least to be able to afford pen, ink, paper, inkstones, and books.

Reading is the 'privilege' of a rich family, and this money is a lot of money for her, a person who is poor and white at this time.

Trying to earn such a large sum of money is really a challenge for her.

From this point of view, the issue of livelihood will probably be the top priority in her life for some time to come.

Thinking of this, Xue Langjing could only sigh, life is difficult!

She can't study at night, and she doesn't want to waste this time, so she might as well meditate, although the effect of meditation may not be as good as eating a few bites of animal meat, but it is better than nothing.

Anyway, now that she is already perfect, no matter how much beast meat she eats, it will not help to improve her strength, but it will just make her more energetic tomorrow.

In this way, there seems to be no difference between eating animal meat and meditating, anyway, if you eat too much animal meat, the excess energy will overflow.

Let's not talk about her, let's talk about this Sun.

Staying for three pennies a night is a win-win situation for both Xue Langjing and Sun.

In the inn outside, no matter how cheap it is, you can't find one that costs only three cents a night, which saves Xue Langjing a lot of copper plates.

And for the Sun family, the room is empty anyway, and it is good to get a penny.

Especially this Tang girl plans to live in their house for the next period, this is free money, she doesn't lose how long she lives, but she can earn back dozens of dollars, no matter how cost-effective.

This one out and one in, hiring someone to collect two acres of land, she probably only paid a hundred yuan, one mu is less than fifty yuan, which is much more cost-effective than in previous years.

Therefore, she is even more enthusiastic about Xue Langjing, fortunately she is the first, otherwise this kind of good thing can only fall on others.

However, what she didn't know was that the reason why Xue Langjing planned to live in her house was not because she was the first one, but because of her attitude towards her granddaughter and her attitude towards her guest.

If she meets someone who beats or scolds her granddaughter, or is so stingy that she invites guests to dinner and picks and searches, she will never live here.

Nothing to say for a day.

Following.

Xue Langjing, who was used to getting up early, got up early and started exercising.

Anyway, there was nothing to do, seeing that the water tank in Sun's courtyard was empty, and thinking that even if Sun got up later, she would have to fetch water before she could wash and cook, so it was better for her to pick it up earlier.

Thinking so, Xue Langjing picked up an empty bucket and went out to carry water, running empty-handed and running with water are no different to her, they are both exercises.

As for where to fetch water, she picked it once yesterday under Sun's guidance.

After all, she has to bathe every day, and the water she needs for bathing is really not a small amount for Sun.

She had to pick it back and forth several times, and if she really asked an old lady to carry water to bathe herself, it would be a big sin, and of course she had to come by herself.

When she filled the water tank in Sun's house with water, this Sun family almost got up.

Seeing that the guest who lived in his house actually got up early in the morning to fill the water tank for the house, Sun was also embarrassed.
