Chapter 397: Hu Tao Village

Ten taels of silver, this completely subverted Li Xiufeng's perception of mountain goods.

At this time, she didn't know that these were cultural toys, and what people bought was a hobby, a hobby.

Of course, there is no shortage of those who chase the wind and compare.

And the price of these ten taels of silver, in Li Xiufeng's opinion, is the sky-high price of mountain goods.

'It's just a mountain product, why is it so expensive?' ’

It was precisely because she was stimulated by the walnuts that cost ten taels that Li Xiufeng also wanted to find out the walnuts with high value, even if it was good to buy a hundred wen.

"My uncle's house is next to Zhaojia Village, but my uncle's house has little land, most of it is mountainous, and life is not easy."

Speaking of this, Li Xiufeng frowned slightly, as if she remembered something.

"Although I heard my grandfather mention that our Dayue can reclaim wasteland by ourselves, and the yamen side is exempted from taxes for five years, but the mountains on my uncle's side are mostly stones, and it is difficult to reclaim."

With that effort, all the laborers in the village went out to find other jobs to do, and it was better than starving to death guarding the empty mountain.

Chai Shuiqing nodded, understanding the psychology of the villagers over there very well.

If there is suitable land for farming, no one wants to leave their homes to work. ’

"Always have to eat? You can't buy food every time, right? ”

After all, ordinary people don't go to buy grain, they mostly grow some of it themselves and save some of it.

Li Xiufeng listened to Chai Shuiqing mention food, nodded and explained: "It's not necessary to buy it, every year people go to the village to collect mountain goods and mushrooms, and they don't want money, so they exchange food." ”

Thinking that she could occasionally eat the delicacies and game sent by her uncle's family every year, Li Xiufeng secretly swallowed her saliva.

"In fact, there are not only mushrooms, but also a lot of wild fruits, wild peaches, apricots! And pheasants, hares, and whatever! ”

Li Xiufeng kept talking, speaking of these, she could talk for a long time, and she was full of interest.

Chai Shuiqing also knew a lot of information about that side from Li Xiufeng's mouth.

For example, the villagers will organize hunting after autumn every year, and the prey will be distributed to each household, which can be regarded as a subsidy to make up for the New Year; For another example, the goods sold by the villagers are presided over by the chief, and the money sold is also distributed by the chief; For example, most of the craftsmen in the village are stonemasons, which have been passed down from generation to generation.

When Chai Shuiqing heard the word craftsmanship, he became interested.

Although wood carving and stone carving are different, in Chai Shuiqing's view, they are both craftsmen, and there is no difference.

She would love to see it, to see their craftsmanship, to see the works......

Chai Shuiqing listened to Li Xiufeng's introduction to the situation of the Zhao family, and she was also a little curious about Zhaojia Village and Hutao Village.

The donkey cart sent them back to Li's house first, and Zhao didn't expect Li Xiufeng to go to Zhaojia Village, and even wanted to go to Hutao Village, so he immediately preached unhappily.

"Da Nizi, don't listen to Feng'er's nonsense, it's very bitter there, there's nothing to do, let's not go!"

Thinking that it was her daughter who brought her, and that the Zhao family also liked Chai Shuiqing, he pulled her hand and said, "Auntie will take you to Zhaojia Village for a walk, which is bigger than Hutao Village, and there are many little girls of the same age as you." ”

Li Xiufeng pouted and watched her mother-in-law dismantle the stage, and said unhappily: "Grandma's house is going, and my uncle's house is also going!" ”

As he spoke, Li Xiufeng tugged at Zhao's sleeve with a look of anticipation.

Seeing this, Zhao pointed at Li Xiufeng, and agreed in the end.

It's just that I took Chai Shuiqing to such a place, and I had to make it clear in the end, but that place was not a good place, and I was very poor, so I was afraid that this girl would be disappointed.

Zhao hurriedly explained a few words, it was nothing more than how poor Hutao Village was, which made Chai Shuiqing think about it. Chai Shuiqing knew in her heart that she just wanted to go to Hutao Village, not Zhaojia Village, so it was better to go and see. Ten taels of silver, this completely subverted Li Xiufeng's perception of mountain goods.
