Volume 1: The Source of Life Chapter 45: The Original Seed
There is a stall on the corner of the night market that sells all-natural ingredients.
The people who go to the night market are basically poor, and those who don't have many points rely on bartering or currency circulation.
This stall selling pure natural ingredients is very cold because of the high price and the fact that it only charges points.
The price of pure natural ingredients is originally ten times that of the nutrient solution, and even if this one sells it cheaply, it is eight or nine times cheaper. For those who are really poor, it would be nice to have enough food and clothing, and who should think about taste and other things.
His family's business basically relies on those rich people who have nothing to do and go to the night market. Someone accidentally bought natural vegetables and grains here, and later came to see them when they had nothing to do.
Then there is word of mouth, and slowly formed their own fixed source of customers.
The stall owner is a little girl, squatting behind the stall in the school uniform of the junior class and playing with her brain. There was also a little boy of five or six years old squatting beside him, reading a paper book that had been turned over by the street lamp.
Sang Yu couldn't help but look at the little boy twice, paper books are a very rare object. As far as the book in his hand is concerned, if it is a rare book, I don't know how many points it can be exchanged. If it's an ordinary book, it's of little value.
The little boy had been looking at it for a long time, his eyes were a little sour, he rubbed his eyes, and when his hand moved, Sang Yu saw the cover of the "Three Character Classic" with sharp eyes.
Looking at the tattered appearance of the books in his hand, Sang Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it's a pity that it's a pirated copy, and it's broken like this, it's not worth a few points. But looking at the little boy in front of the baby, it seems that he is a child who loves to learn.
The uncle, the caretaker, carried Sang Yu to the stall, put her down, whispered a few words of advice, and went to patrol the market.
His role is to be responsible for the safety of the market, not to take care of small children. The reason why he took special care of Sangyu was just to see that the little girl was good-looking, and when she thought of the girl at home who was about the same age as her, she was soft-hearted for a while.
"Little sister, how do you sell these potatoes?"
As soon as the little girl looked up, she saw Sang Yu, and said with a smile: "Sang Yu, it's you, why did you come out alone?" What about your family? If you want to buy potatoes, you have to call your family, these things are very expensive. ”
Sang Yu found out that she knew the little girl who was watching the stall, Zheng Xiaoqi.
She was a little curious, isn't Zheng Xiaoqi's uncle Teacher Chen? How could she set up a stall in the night market to sell vegetables, looking at the little boy next to her, it looked like a family.
Xiao Qi seemed to see Sang Yu's doubts, she smiled and pointed at the little boy: "He is the younger brother of my uncle's family, my uncle is dead, and my aunt is gone." My grandmother knows how to farm, and I love farming. In the evening, when I had nothing to do, I would come here with him to set up a stall and sell some points to subsidize the seed and fertilizer money for my grandmother's family. ”
Sang Yu realized that the fierce and naughty and willful Xiao Qi was a kind young lady, and she was helping her grandmother and cousin!
However, Zheng Xiaoqi's parents are both employees of the base, why did her uncle die and her aunt left? There will be subsidies for the injuries and deaths of employees in the base, and many things, such as ingredients, are free, and there is no such thing as not being able to raise children.
Xiao Qi saw Sang Yu's doubts, but she didn't say anything. She couldn't tell Sang Yu because her uncle had done something wrong and was executed by the base. For such a person, the base will not support the children he stays behind.
Grandma was reluctant to live with her younger brother, moving out to live with her younger brother, although her parents would send things to her grandmother, but grandma said that people can't rely on others, they have to rely on themselves, so she has been taking her younger brother with her, trying not to trouble the little seven families.
Sang Yu also saw that Xiao Qi had something inconvenient to say, she pointed to the potatoes on the stall: "Can I take a look at the potatoes?" ”
Xiao Qi nodded: "You can look at it casually, it's just that the things are not mine, otherwise I will give you two." ”
"No, no, my grandparents also farm, and there is no shortage of this at home."
Hearing her say that there was no shortage of this at home, the little boy raised his head and glanced at Sang Yu.
I thought, this little sister is very good at bragging, if it is possible that there is no shortage of food, how can there be no shortage of food grown in this pure natural land, how rich is it?
Sang Yu carefully picked up a piece of potato and looked at it carefully on the street lamp, the size of the potato is very small, it has been left for several generations to become like this. Normal potatoes used to be very large, and each one weighed one or two pounds. And the potatoes in Sang Yu's hands can only make up a pound of at least seven or eight or more.
Sang Yu put down the potato and said sincerely: "Little Seventh Sister, your potato seeds are not good, they will only grow smaller and smaller." ”
Xiao Qi's eyes lit up: "You also know how to plant, this is indeed getting smaller and smaller, but there is no way, the original original seeds are gone, and these seeds that have been handed down are all cultivated by the previous seed company." ”
Sang Yu finally found someone with a common topic, and nodded enthusiastically: "Yes, the previous generation of seeds is not suitable for keeping, most of the original seeds are extinct, and it is difficult to find them." ”
Little Seventh Little Girl didn't expect that such a young child as Sang Yu would understand this, so she couldn't help but put down the book and pointed to the stool beside her: "Sang Yu, do you want to sit down, what about your family?" ”
"My brother is in trouble, he will come and pick me up right away."
Sang Yu was also not polite, and really went around and sat down.
The two of them were already familiar with each other, but now they felt more cordial and chatted warmly. During this period, Sang Yu also helped Xiao Qi sell two potatoes. All are regular customers, and the prices are indeed cheaper than supermarkets.
The most important thing is also because her potatoes are too small and have no appearance.
Until Jing Zhan came over, Sang Yu was still chatting with Zheng Xiaoqi, and she was a little reluctant to go.
Jing Zhan looked at the time, a little worried that Aunt Gina would go to check the room at night, so he finally dragged Sang Yu out of the stall.
Just after walking a few steps, Sang Yu ran back again: "Little Seventh Sister, will you come back tomorrow?" ”
Zheng Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Come back, the potatoes haven't been sold out." ”
In fact, there are only two or three catties of potatoes tonight, and she will definitely be sold out later, and she has nothing to sell tomorrow. It will take a week for the small greens to be planted before they can be sold. Looking at Sang Yu's eager gaze, she suddenly felt a little unbearable, and decided to come no matter whether she did business tomorrow or not.
"Okay, then tomorrow you wait for me, and I'll bring you seeds."
"Really."
Zheng Xiaoqi's face immediately bloomed with a bright smile: "What kind of seeds do you have in your family?" Is it expensive? ”
In this era, good seeds can be used as seeds for retention, no less valuable than rare materials, which are more scarce than those rare materials.
"There were soybeans, potatoes, corn, baby greens, peppers...... Anyway, there are many kinds, and you can try them. ”
The night wind messed up the broken hair on Meng Sangyu's forehead the most, making her whole person look beautiful and cute.
Zheng Xiaoqi stood up in a panic and waved his hand again and again: "So many seeds, Sangyu, you have so many seeds, are they all original seeds?" Can you sell me less of everything? Me, I'll see how many points I have first. ”
Zheng Xiaoqi's family is good and has accumulated some points, she wants to save these points to send this cousin to school. If Sang Yu really has a lot of seeds, she is a little unsure whether her points are enough to buy these seeds.
What makes her even more uncertain is that Mulberry is so small, she doesn't understand the seeds, you must know that the original seed is completely different from the seed that has been cross-optimized now.
Sang Yu smiled and narrowed his eyes, there is nothing more pleasant than seeing like-minded friends: "They are all seeds that can be left behind, and I will bring the seeds tomorrow, and we will see you here." ”
Until Sang Yu's small figure disappeared into the crowd with Jing Zhan, Zheng Xiaoqi was still standing, stunned as he watched the direction in which they disappeared.
"Sister, sister, what are you still watching? People are gone. ”
Zheng Xiaoqi's gaze was retracted, and he rubbed his younger brother's hair: "It would be nice if Sang Yu really had the original seed, so that we can grow more pure natural ingredients, and you can go to school." Xiao Jiu, don't read the book, don't you know all the words on it? ”
"Sister, I don't have to go to school, and it's the same with studying on a light brain."
Zheng Xiaojiu carefully put the book in his hand, this was lent to him by Uncle Tattered Wang, and when he got to know all of them, he would return it to Uncle Tattered Wang and let him exchange points.
Zheng Xiaoqi sighed, she doesn't have a light brain at home, and she doesn't have a convenient and fast treasure in her hand. Every time Xiao Jiu went to Uncle Wang's house to study on the Internet for a while, he was still complained by the daughter-in-law of the Broken King.
If only this little sister named Meng Sangyu really had primordial seeds that could be planted. Zheng Xiaoqi was looking forward to it and worried, she was very much looking forward to having better original seeds, but she was afraid that her points would not be enough to buy seeds.
Life is really too difficult for civilians, especially in a family like Xiao Jiu, where only the mother supports the burden of raising the whole family.
She can only help one more.
On the way, Sang Yu held Jing Zhan's hand and ate the snacks Jing Zhan bought for her at the night market as she walked.
"Brother Jing Zhan, where did you leave Xiao Hei?"
"The sack broke, and it fell into the slums."
"Ah, did he run away then?"
Sang Yu instantly felt that the snacks in his hands were no longer fragrant.
"No, he smashed the roof of someone's house, and when I left, I was being beaten by someone."
Oh, knowing that he was beaten, the snack in Sang Yu's hand instantly became sweet again.
"What were you talking to that little girl about?"
"Oh, you take me out again tomorrow night, and I promise to send her some seeds."
Jing Zhan said "um" in a low voice, seeds, as long as there are them here in Sangyu, they are not rare, and she is rare in those varieties that can no longer be found.
He remembered a big mountain he went to last time, and he didn't know if he could find some rare species in the depths of the mountain.
If you want to find a way to go a few more times, explore a little bit from the outside in, this mountain always gives him a very mysterious feeling, maybe there are rarer species in the mountain that my sister likes.
Jing Zhan took Sang Yu's little hand, he was not in a hurry to go back at the moment, he looked at the night sky and asked slowly, "Why did you think of going to Xiao Hei for trouble today?" ”
Jing Zhan felt very strange, Xiao Hei snatched their point cards a few times, but Sang Yu didn't say anything, why did he suddenly go to Wutong Garden to find Xiao Hei tonight? Moreover, it was also requested that Xiao Hei be sent away in a bundle.
