In the end, Anne was unable to buy the seeds she needed to farm on her ranch......

Because, she has no money now!

With only one miserable number '0G' left on the ranch's books, no one would want to give her a credit to this strange little person who has only been in Ore Town for two days and looks a little unreliable! So, in the case that gold can't be spent as money and is not worth much, she doesn't want to be driven away by a certain bad old man, Mayor Thomas, for the time being, for all kinds of unqualified reasons, so she can only resolutely decide: find her own way and make money by herself?

So, Anne finally had to set off, and after eating and drinking enough in the shop of the young sister Lin's family, she went to the back mountain to kill!

What she remembers, that Uncle Zach also told her, saying that there are a lot of valuable things in the back mountains, that is, those 'mountain goods' or something that can be collected and sold for money when the funds are insufficient?

So......

She had to do something to save her ranch account, which was on the verge of bankruptcy.

“？？”

(°ー°〃)

"That's right, it should be not far ahead, right?"

♪～o(▽｀o)=3=3=3

The mountain behind Ore Town, also known as Our Lady's Mountain, is said to have gone south from the pasture that Anne had just acquired, across the river that drew water, and through a grove with a wooden house and a woodcutter!

There are two mountain paths on the southwest side of the grove, one leading to a hot spring and a waterfall, where the residents of Ore Town can soak in the magical hot springs that are said to restore their strength and relieve fatigue for free when they are tired, or they can go to the mines by the springs to dig in the mines, and even throw tributes into the waterfall lake by the springs, and then meet the legendary goddess?

However, over the years, as the lives of the residents of Ore Town have improved day by day, people have rarely gone to the mines to mine. Similarly, the residents of Ore Town, who basically don't have much need for life and beauty, rarely take the initiative to visit the goddess, because they all know that even if they visit or offer tribute, it is not of much use, and the goddess generally will not easily fulfill any of their wishes.

Therefore, I didn't want to mine or mine, and I didn't want to go to Anne, who was chattering with the Rausch goddess, so I walked towards the back mountain of Our Lady of Grace as a matter of course...... It is said that there are plenty of mountain goods in all seasons on the shores of the great lake, and for a person like her, who squandered all the money on the first day of accepting the ranch, the kind of thing where she could pick up something valuable if she was willing to spend a little time was the best place for her to make the most of her strengths.

“……”

(ー`´ー)

"Hey! Tibbs, tell me, these unusual things should be the mountain goods they are talking about, right? ”

(*≧▽≦)ノシ艹

The back mountain of Ore Town is not far away, and soon came to the back mountain lake of Ore Town, and Little Anne did not care about the very large, and it is said that there is still a kappa living in the lake and there is a mine in the center of the lake, but it is only possible to enter the lake in winter, but she ran to the lake by herself, and began to search around, and soon the effort paid off, so that she really found several blue clovers.

Then, I ran to the front and picked up one and looked at it carefully for a while, plucking up the three-leaf 'green grass' that was obviously blue, but I don't know why it was described by Sister Lin as being able to sell a full 100 G, and looked at it carefully, and casually asked Tiebs a certain dogleg that she magically turned into a 'real dog's leg'.

'Wang~! ’

ꉂʕᓀꇴᓂʔ

(Tibbs ignored it, it just barked at its wretched little master, saying that it didn't know, because it was just a miserable Wang now, and the Wangs certainly wouldn't, couldn't, and shouldn't speak, even in private!) ）

“……”

(￢д￢。 )

"Forget it! People don't ask you stupid guy anymore! Anyway, these grasses look quite special, and there are not many of them here, so it's not the same as the dense and messy weeds around it, it must be it! ”

o(´▽｀)o=3=3=3

With that, after sorting and storing the blue 'green grass' in an area of her space bag that she had temporarily received, Anne began to run forward, pulling out all the 'green grass' she saw, and throwing it all into her bag.

"Hey, hey, hey......"

("ಡωಡ")

Anne didn't care if it was blue grass or blue grass, anyway, she only knew that she had just pulled out a full six roots, and when she went back and threw them into the shipping box to ship, the big Zack man would definitely pay her six times a hundred, which is a small amount of money worth 600 G, which is enough for her to eat a meal worth 500 G in Uncle Dart and Little Sister Lynn's store.

"Wow!!"

! (; ﾟoﾟ)o

"Tibbs, look, there seem to be a lot of them here, let's put them all away!!"

ε=εε=ε=‾͟͟͞(((๑✪ꇴ✪)o

（…… ）

(●￣㉨￣●)

"Huh?"

∑(´△｀)？！

"That's flowers? It must be that kind of moon tears, right? No matter what, maybe you can sell it for money, and you can put it all away! ”

♪٩(´ᵕ｀๑)۶⁾⁾

"Twigs?"

⊙(・◇・)？

"No matter! Pick it up!! ”

٩(ˊ〇ˋ*)و

"Tricolor flowers? Pull!! ”

₍₍(̨̡‾ᗣ‾)̧̢₎₎

"That's ......"

|ू･ω･`)？

"Wow! Tibbs, look, it's bamboo shoots, there are a lot!! ”

౧(*മ്ധമ്)੭ु⁾⁾

Soon, Anne, who was searching by the lake, finally found a bamboo forest that Uncle Zack and his little sister Lynn had mentioned, and successfully found those bamboo shoots worth 50G that were said to only emerge in spring, so she didn't want to reach out directly, and a mage's hand uprooted them and received them in her bag.

"There's still one over there!!"

ヾ(^▽^*)))⁼³₌₃⁼³₌₃

Ten minutes later, this bamboo forest and all the bamboo shoots in the back mountain were damaged...... Because, compared to other green grasses that are hidden in the weeds and are more difficult to find, those patches of bamboo forests are a little too obvious!

But......

When all the bamboo shoots in the mountains behind the entire ore town, those mountain goods that others may not be able to dig up in a day, were all damaged and uprooted by an unreasonable little girl, the remaining green grass and those messy flowers also suffered, and they were all automatically searched and marked by a bad little girl with magic and then scraped away!

As a result, the arduous workload that the residents of other ore towns might not have been able to complete for days was completed by Anne in less than an hour! She was just one person, sweeping away the mountain goods in the mountains behind the entire ore town, even pulling out all the wild flowers, and leaving nothing for others.

"That's it!"

❤(ˆ⌣ˆc)

"Tibbs, look at it, it seems to be quite easy to make money or something, and it doesn't take much effort for people to get all the mountain goods!"

☆⌒(*＾-゜)vTHX!!

Although she didn't know how many mountain goods she had gotten in the mountains behind Ore Town in this hour, Anne only knew that there were a lot of bamboo shoots, cyan grass, moon tears and tricolor flowers in her bag.

（…… ）

(●￣㉨￣●)

"Butterflies? Don't run!! ”

o(*｀ー´)o

Suddenly, a butterfly floated in front of Anne, and then she reached out and grabbed the other party.

"Hmmm......"

(｡ •ˇ‸ˇ•｡ )

"Tibbs, you say, can butterflies also be considered mountain goods, and can be sold for money? Forget it, I still don't ask you, you don't know anyway! ”

(ˉ▽ ̄~) cut ~~

After saying that, Anne also stuffed the butterfly into her bag, planning to throw it directly into the shipping box in the ranch when the time came, and throw it into the shipping box that Uncle Zack said and was blessed by a certain 'goddess' with divine power, which can hold countless goods, and it will never be full.

（…… ）

(^㉨^; )ゞ

(However, as Tibbs knew, something like a butterfly wouldn't sell for money...... However, when it saw that its own terrible little master had already put it in his bag, and saw that the other party was in high spirits and began to search for the next 'prey', it said nothing in good faith. ）

"What did you step on...... Wow! Is it a snake?! ”

!？ (•''•۶)۶

"Take!!"

(•‾̑⌣‾̑•)✧˖°

A little green snake was lying on the lawn basking in the spring sun, but when it was accidentally stepped on by a bad little girl, it was startled and was about to use its fangs to teach the other party how to behave...... Instead, it was quickly dodged by the little girl, and then grabbed its tail, and after shaking it skillfully a few times, it no longer had the strength to move, and was thrown into some bag with infinite space.

"Monkey ......"

=͟͟͞͞('ヮ'=͟͟͞͞)

"No matter! All those who live in the mountains are mountain goods, take them away!! ”

↜(ψ'▽′)⊃--*⋆ All petrified!

Since even innocent snakes and butterflies have suffered, a wild monkey that is eating young leaves on a tree and dares to grin at her will surely not escape the clutches of little Annie! So, it was soon hit by a petrification spell and fell straight to the ground, and was given by Anne as an authentic 'mountain goods' and received her evil space bag.

"Hmm......"

(°ー°〃)

"I don't know if the kappa is worth ......"

(｡ ◕ˇεˇ◕｡ )

Yes, Anne is now hitting a certain kappa again...... However, Anne had heard that Sister Lynn say that the kappa's terrible stuff seemed to only come out when he threw a cucumber into the lake? And if he throws something else, he won't come out?

But now, Anne didn't have that kind of cucumber in her backpack, and even if she had, she wouldn't throw it into the lake!

"Forget it!"

(*˘︶˘*).:*❤

"The kappa kind of thing, if you live in the water, it's definitely not a mountain product, it shouldn't be able to sell for money, so let him go for the time being!"

(*๓´ꌂ`๓)

After hesitating for a while, he thought that the kappa should be like a certain 'goddess-sama', some kind of transcendent existence in this kind of world, and finally gave up the plan to attack the lake to force a kappa to show up and then capture the other party and ship it.

Although she can indeed easily catch that kind of guy with very weak strength, but a guy like that must be someone who no one will or dare to spend money to buy it, so forget it for the time being!

"I've found so many mountain goods today, I should be able to do it, right?"

(๑╹ヮ╹๑)

At this time, Anne, who had been in trouble for a long time in the mountains behind Ore Town, was finally ready to go home, because there seemed to be nothing to dig or catch here, and she didn't see it for the time being.

"Let's go! Tibbs, we can go back!! ”

ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

Now, all the mountain goods near the Houshan Lake have been swept away by Anne, and not even a single branch that fell to the ground has not been spared!

Therefore, Annie, who felt that she had gained a lot today and could become more fulfilled through labor, turned around and left after greeting a certain dog.

“！！”

ヽ(゜Q。 )ノ？

"Wait! Over there...... Like a wild dog? Wild dogs should also be regarded as mountain goods, and they can be sold for money, right? ”

ヾ(´･･｀｡ )ノ

However......

Anne, who had just left the lake, suddenly saw a puppy in the distance, and it seemed that it was still the kind of ownerless dog without a collar?

"Stop! Dare to run? Tibbs give it to me, grab it, take it back and ship it!! ”

ε٩(๑⌓̈๑)۶⁼³₌₃

Now that her mind is full of only looking for mountain goods and shipping to make money, where will Annie allow a live mountain goods to escape from her eyes? Therefore, after seeing that the other party was so frightened by one of her eyes that she ran into the dense forest of the back mountain with her tail between her legs, she angrily shouted at a certain dog leg who was listlessly following her.

（？？？ ）

∑(´㉨｀)？！

(Tibbs, however, did not act...... Because it knew that a wild dog was certainly not a mountain commodity, and that it would certainly not sell for money if caught, and that it was not willing to do such a stupid thing, it still stood apathetic, wagging its little tail that had puzzled it all the time. ）

“！！”

（ಠ╭╮ಠ）

"What do you see, why don't you hurry up and chase others? If you can't catch it, you won't come back tonight!! ”

↜(ψ'Dish′)┌┛★)'ᄌ ゚)

Seeing that a certain 'stupid dog' dared to ignore her own orders, Anne of course would not be polite to the other party, and directly kicked it fiercely, kicking it into the grass where the wild dog had escaped and disappeared......

'Whew~!! ’

｡ °(°¯᷄㉨¯᷅°)°｡

A whimper sounded, and some hapless dogleg quickly disappeared into the same grass......

‘！！ ’

'What's the voice over there, who's over there?' ’

At this moment, someone seemed to pass by in the distance, and after hearing the movement here, he ran over at an accelerated speed and exclaimed, and soon he saw a certain little girl standing in such a wild place.

"Huh? Who are you? ”

"Ahh I remembered, a little girl with a red dress and blond hair and blue eyes...... You must be the little girl Annie who has just moved to the ranch, right? ”

An uncle, who was carrying an axe, covered in dirt and with a big beard on his face, walked up to Anne and looked at her curiously for a moment before exclaiming in disbelief.

"Yes! It's that little girl! ”

(*^▽^*)

"But, uncle, who are you? They don't think they've seen you in town......"

٩(⊙o⊙*)و

Anne hadn't really seen each other, though she hadn't necessarily seen all of them in Ore Town.

"You just came, of course you haven't seen it."

"So, my name is Götz, I'm a carpenter, and I now live in the woods south of Ore Town."

Uncle Beard began to introduce himself.

"But, little one, what are you doing here? I just heard something strange......"

With that, Gortz the carpenter looked from side to side, for he seemed to have heard the whimper of some animal just now, so he followed the sound.

"People just collected mountain goods here to make money, and they didn't hear any strange sounds! Maybe someone's puppy Tiebs accidentally scraped some thorny spikes, right? ”

(^_−)☆

"So that's the case, you're here to dig up mountain goods?"

"What a coincidence!"

"I'm actually planning to dig some bamboo shoots and go back to eat bamboo shoots and fried meat, the bamboo shoots at this time are the most tender in the year, and I can't eat them in the summer, so I also want to dig a few and prepare them."

A bamboo shoot is huge, and for Gotz, who has now become single again, it is almost enough for him to eat for several days! Therefore, if he digs up a few and brings them back today, in addition to enough for him to eat in spring, he can also use them to make sour bamboo shoots and dried bamboo shoots, and keep them for summer and autumn and winter to enjoy.

Anyway, that's how he lives every year.

Since his wife and daughter died in the mountains and spontaneously asked Harris to let him patrol the mountains in order to prevent the same misfortune from happening to others again, in addition to working as a carpenter, patrolling the mountains and driving out wild beasts, he would also get some mountain goods to improve his life, such as bamboo shoots in the spring, wild grapes in the summer, mushrooms and matsutake mushrooms in the fall, and so on.

"Ah......h

(“▔□▔)

“？？”

"What's wrong with you, little one?"

Seeing that the other party's face suddenly became a little strange, Uncle Carpenter Gotts asked a little strangely. After all, he is a patrol and ranger in the back mountains, and if the other party has anything to do here, he will definitely be happy to help as much as he can.

"Nope! It's nothing!! ”

(lll￢▽￢)

Anne won't tell the other party: she has just dug up all the nearby mountain goods, and the other party is here in the back mountain, and there must be a bamboo shoot that can't be dug down.

"That's it!"

"Little guy, since you're fine, I'm going to get busy, don't run into the dense forest alone, and don't leave the road too far, it's not safe here...... Also, all the houses on the ranch have just been renovated, and the place where you live is indeed a bit small, if you want to renovate your house in the future, just tell me, as long as you can afford it, I will be happy to renovate your house! ”

"That's it, goodbye, Annie!"

Although he wanted to talk to the other party about the specific matter of renovating the house, but thinking about the other party's current situation, Gotz, who knew that the other party must not have any money, smiled, gave up the idea that he could make a fortune, and waved at the other party to leave.

"Uh-huh!"

ヽ(⌒ω⌒)

"Goodbye, Uncle Gotz......"

ヾ(￣▽￣)Bye~Bye~

With that, Anne quickly turned around and ran back.

-=͟͟͞͞=͟͟͞͞ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

She won't tell the other party that all the spring bamboo shoots in the back mountain have been dug up by her alone, and it is definitely useless for the other party to carry the big axe, and she will definitely not be able to dig anything!

Perhaps, the other party can only wait for tomorrow?

However, if these mountain goods are really valuable, then the other party will dig up them tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and she will definitely come here every day!
