After weighing, the brother and sister carried a total of thirty-three catties and four taels, and four taels were not counted, even if they were thirty-three catties, a total of five hundred and ninety-four dollars. This is something that Jiang Amao can't earn in the restaurant for half a year. After receiving the money, and the old shopkeeper explained some more words, the brother and sister went to the blacksmith shop to find the blacksmith.

"Master, look at it, how much silver does such a thing need?" After Jiang Yu'er said what she was going to do, she began to ask the price. She also knew that in this era, iron was controlled by the imperial court, and the price was much more expensive than others, so she wasn't sure how to make a cut and how much it would cost.

The blacksmith was five big and three thick, with a beard, and his facial features could not be seen clearly. He looked at what Jiang Yu'er drew on the ground, and looked at Jiang Yu'er, a little unsure, but he also understood that this thing couldn't be beaten, and it had to be modeled.

Finally, he calculated and said: "Little girl, you thing, it will take two hundred wen to say less!" ”

As a result, as soon as his voice fell, Jiang Amao began to retreat. He thought that it was only a matter of a few tens of yuan, who knew that it would cost two hundred yuan, and if you knew that two hundred yuan, you could buy a lot of food.

He wanted to say no, but before he could say anything, he heard his sister say, "Then there is Master Lao." After speaking, he asked, "Excuse me, master, when will it be completed?" ”

"Niu Niu!" He was tempted to say, too expensive.

How could Jiang Yu'er not know what he was thinking, she turned to look at him and said, "Brother! We must make this thing, not to mention, this thing master can't be made with a few hammers. You have to make a model and use the molten iron to come out. ”

When the old blacksmith heard her words, he spoke with all his heart, as if she understood very well, and could not help but be curious: "The little girl knows so much. ”

Jiang Yuer didn't say anything, and after paying the deposit, she followed her brother.

"Brother, there is no rice at home, why don't we go and see it first and buy something to eat." When she walked to the door of the grain store, she remembered that her family had been out of food for a long time. Jiang Amao touched his head embarrassedly, and when he went back, he forgot to buy rice for his younger brothers and sisters. The brother and sister bought 20 catties of white rice and 10 catties of white noodles. I went to the pork shop again and bought two catties of lard. That's when I started to rush back.

As a result, I forgot to buy candy for my little brother. When he got home, the little one began to rummage through the basket.

"Ziming, what are you looking for?" Seeing that his younger brother had been rummaging, Jiang Amao asked with some displeasure.

Jiang Ziming didn't notice it, but seriously opened a bag, looked at it, and said casually: "Sister said she wanted to buy me candy." Jiang Yu'er, who came out of the kitchen to drink water, secretly screamed that it was not good, and she forgot about this stubble.

He walked over a little sneeringly, touched his brother's little head and said, "Ziming, sister forgot, I will definitely buy it for you next time, okay?" Who knew that Jiang Ziming, who had always been elated, changed his face, but he still said: "Oh! Then buy it next time! With that, he turned and left.

Seeing her younger brother like this, Jiang Yu'er felt uncomfortable. She didn't mean it, but there were a lot of things today, and she forgot about it.

On the way back, the brother and sister discussed, and while the star anise had not fallen off yet, Jiang Amao quit his job in the restaurant and followed his sister up the mountain to pick star anise. Try to buy more money next time, so that you can improve your life.

also promised his sister that he would cultivate the world at home, and he left by himself, and his sister was alone, and he was not at ease.

Seeing that the brother and sister had carried the thing in the mountain several times, many old people kept persuading, saying that don't get that strange thing, and it will make you sick.

Jiang Yu'er smiled and said thank you, and also told them the role of this thing, but the old people didn't believe it, thinking that the two children had no parents at home, and they might be able to buy a few dollars. When I got home, I told the children at home that they should not get the thing and let the brother and sister pick it.

The people in the village are simple and kind, and although there will be some friction, it is not a big deal. If you quarrel for two sentences, it will be fine in two days. Seeing Jiang Yu'er, the three brothers and sisters, who have no father or mother, they can't help much. Since this thing can be sold for money, let them get it themselves.

Some people will even see the brother and sister coming back with anise on their backs on the road, and they will help carry them back. Seeing this group of old and young people in the village, Jiang Yuer's heart was full of emotion.

She thought that after the beginning of spring, if the sweet potatoes in the mountains were successfully planted, she would also help them improve their lives. If a family is good, it may attract people's eyes, but if a village is good, who will be jealous?

Seeing that the house of the brothers and sisters was a little rainy, and thinking that it was about to be winter in the blink of an eye, many villagers also organized themselves and came over to help the three brothers and sisters make up for the house. It's not completely good, but at least it's not that cold. Looking at such villagers, Jiang Yuer felt that her decision was right.

went to the town and sold the anise again, took the scratch from the blacksmith shop and came back, the brother and sister went directly to the village entrance Niu Grandpa's house, and the grandparents and grandchildren repaired the land, and really installed the scratch.

The old man also found two ropes, and immediately went to the vegetable field in front of his house with Jiang Amao to try them out. Jiang Amao pulled in front, and the old man supported the plow in the back, and soon pulled a large piece. The old man was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth and eyes.

"It's a good thing, it's a good thing. But it's too expensive. The old man looked at the cut in the plough with regret and said.

"Grandpa, this thing will be a pity, it can be used for several years!" Jiang Yu'er also smiled: "It's a pity that my family has no money, otherwise it would be better to buy a cow." ”

said unintentionally, the listener was intentional, and the old man immediately thought of his cousin's cows, which usually drove the market to be Lala things, Lala people or something.

So he said: "Yingzi, go to your second uncle's house to borrow his cattle as an envoy." The woman who was called Yingzi was the old man's daughter-in-law, and the woman answered and walked out quickly.

She was really moved when she saw it, if there was such a farm tool at home, wouldn't it be a lot faster? How much effort do you save?

After a while, Yingzi pulled a scalper, followed by the second master of the cow. As soon as I entered the door, I heard the second master of the cow's angry voice sound: "Dezi, listen to Yingzi, the thing you picked up with the ox is faster than the manual one?" ”

Hearing his cousin's voice, Grandpa Niu also stood up and walked quickly towards the door. "Yes! That's why I asked Yingzi to go to your house and pull the old scalper over to try! ”

"Hurry up, try it, if it works, this year's land will be troublesome." The old man was a crop veteran, and when he heard that there were better farm tools, he shouted with joy.
