Looking at the sky, it was already noon, and they couldn't go back hungry, so the three of them went to the roadside stall to eat a bowl of chicken soup stewed noodles, a total of two large bowls and a small bowl, and it cost thirteen yuan.

After eating, Xie Xuan proposed to go back by ox cart, but Xie Qingshan and Xie Pingtian were reluctant to spend any more money.

"We countrymen don't have anything else, but we have the strength, and we don't need to spend money on this, not to mention that there is nothing urgent at home, and we don't have to be in a hurry like early in the morning, just go back!" Xie Qingshan said.

So it was still the same as when he came, Xie Pingtian carried the basket on his back, and Xie Qingshan walked a few miles back with Xie Xuan on his back.

It was already half an hour when I got home, and when I walked to the entrance of the village, I saw Uncle Liu in the west of the village also coming down from the mountain with a basket on his back, and saw Xie Qingshan and his son coming back from the county seat, and asked, "Brother Qingshan, is this going to the county seat?" ”

Xie Qingshan replied: "Yes, go sell mountain goods, and buy some daily groceries by the way, I just came back from the county seat!" ”

"What is the price of mountain goods? Has it been sold? Uncle Liu asked, his eyes looking at the full stuff on Xie Pingtian's back.

Xie Qingshan said quietly: "The price is still about the same as in previous years, and you can earn a few pennies by trying to collect more mountain goods." ”

The two exchanged a few words and went home.

When they entered the simple courtyard gate of their house, Xie Wang and Lin, who were spinning and weaving in the house, came out, and Xie Qingshan asked, "What about Zhiyuan Zhicheng's two leather monkeys?" ”

Lin smiled and said, "Naughty went!" ”

Xie Qingshan asked the Xie Wang clan and the Lin clan to close the courtyard door.

Except for Xie Zhiyuan and Xie Zhicheng's two children, the whole family gathered in the hall, Xie Qingshan and Xie Pingtian took things out of the basket in the same way, and a large table was slowly placed on the table of the Eight Immortals.

"How do you buy these things? So He Shou Wu really sold for a lot of money? Xie Wang asked in surprise.

Xie Qingshan laughed a few times without speaking, took out three boxes of flour fat wrapped in oil paper from under the back basket and handed them to Xie Wang, "Here, this is for you, your eldest daughter-in-law and Xuanxuan, look at what?" ”

Xie Xuan looked at the pride on Xie Qingshan's face, and couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.

When Xie Wang opened the tightly wrapped oil paper and opened the lid of the porcelain box, a rich fragrance of flowers overflowed, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "Ouch, how can I buy this expensive thing, how much does it cost?" When she used to go to the county to buy groceries, she had also seen pancreas and facial grease oil sold in rouge wool shops, but the price was prohibitive, and every time she looked at it from a distance and left.

Lin Shi saw the three white porcelain boxes depicted with plum blossoms, his face couldn't help showing surprise and joy, looking at his husband, Xie Pingtian said with a smile: "I haven't let you use this good thing all these years, and I have made a lot of money today, so you can use it with confidence!" ”

"Then He Shou Wu really sold for money? How much did it sell? Xie Wang couldn't help but ask again.

Xie Qingshan stopped selling Guanzi, took out the big bag of silver at the bottom of the basket and opened it, and a piece of silver light simply dazzled everyone's eyes, "Sold for fifty taels of silver!" ”

"Oh, that's a ...... It's really ......" Xie Wang was really speechless for a long time, and the bag of silver shook his head.

"Dad, what's going on, tell me about it!" Xie Ping'an couldn't help it and urged.

Xie Qingshan and Xie Pingtian told the three of them what happened in the morning.

It's over, Xie Qingshan touched Xie Xuan's little head and sighed: "If Xuanxuan didn't know that He Shou Wu, we wouldn't be able to make a fortune!" The Li family threw out a golden egg......"

Xie Wang pushed Xie Qingshan and glanced at him: "What are you talking about?" Xuanxuan has always been surnamed Xie, what does it have to do with their Li family, and she is not allowed to mention this in the future! "Xie Wang's family is afraid that Xie Xuan will be sad when he hears the Li family.

"Yes, yes, Xuanxuan has nothing to do with them, never mention it again in the future!" Xie Qingshan said.

"Dad, since this He Shou Wu is so valuable, let's go to the mountains to find it again! If someone else finds out that it's so valuable, then it won't be dug up?! Xie Ping'an said worriedly.

"Ping An is right, tomorrow morning, let's go to the mountains to find it! Mother, don't do anything else with Hongmei in the second half of the day, boil a few plates of fat meat into oil, and let's make dumplings to eat at night. Make some more dry food and bring it up the mountain tomorrow, we won't come back at noon, and then go home when it's dark, so it won't attract attention. Xie Qingshan said what he had thought about all the way a long time ago.

And when they all agreed, they prepared to go to work.

"Grandpa, aren't there wild beasts in the mountains? Didn't the old people in the village still say that someone had been bitten to death by wild boars and wolves in previous years? Sometimes at night, I hear wolves howling every once in a while, so there will be no danger when we come back in the dark! Xie Xuan was a little worried and scared.

"That's all the old yellow calendar, the most fierce ones I've seen in recent years are wild boars and wild dogs, and I can't make a fortune if I'm afraid of danger!" Xie Ping'an had already begun to try to go to the mountains to find He Shou Wu again, and he couldn't take care of it at this time.

Xie Qingshan and Xie Pingtian were a little hesitant when they heard Xie Xuan's words, but when they saw Xie Ping'an say this, thinking about the people in the village who have gone to pick mountain goods over the years, at most, they have encountered wild boars, and they have temporarily put their hearts back in their stomachs.

"Grandpa, uncle, uncle, you are all carried away by this silver!" Xie Xuan couldn't help but sigh in her heart when she saw that the family was so impulsive, but the poor are getting rich, and they can earn more money in front of them, so it's no wonder that they can't care about the danger, but her ideal life is not to make money with her head tied to the waistband of her pants, she opened her mouth and persuaded: "There must be other medicinal materials on this mountain, I know many kinds of medicinal materials?" According to your method, we will go to the mountains to look for it in the morning and return late without doing anything every day, in case we meet some wild beast, the money will be earned, and our lives will be lost. Grandpa, uncle, when we came back, didn't Dr. Liu say, this Polygonum multiflorum is poisonous, and the cooked Polygonum multiflorum can add another layer of price, let's pick it back, I have a way to concoct Polygonum multiflori, and when the time comes, I can sell it to Baicaotang, and I can sell it at a higher price, isn't this a safe and secure way to earn money at home! ”

"That's right, but if this He Shou Wu is found by others and can be sold for money, we will be blind......" Xie Qingshan was still a little worried.

On the one hand, they are industrious, simple, and kind, on the other hand, they are conservative, short-sighted, greedy for short-term interests, and have no long-term plans, which are all caused by the closed environment in the countryside all the time.

Because she knows such character traits, she has a plan to deliberately guide them, so as not to lose big because of small things.

"That's it, grandpa, I can see if it works, my grandma and eldest concubine will stay at home to take care of the house, otherwise it is not safe for our family to keep such a large amount of silver at home, right? Grandpa, you and my uncle and uncle, take me again, let's go up the mountain to find medicinal materials as usual, I also recognize other medicinal materials, I will teach you when the time comes, and you will see and know each other in the future. We don't need to get up early and be greedy for darkness, so that others can see that they still think that our family has dug up some treasure, let's just do the same as before! Xie Xuan said.

"Alright, let's do it!" Xie Qingshan's father and son all felt that what Xie Xuan said made sense, so they agreed.
