30. Sell yams

After some manipulation, a thick and long yam rhizome was finally dug up.

With joy on his face, Qin Xiaoyao saw that the situation was almost over, so he gouged out the yam tuber and put it aside.

"Just dig the way I did. Before it gets dark, all the yams in the field have to be dug out. Qin Xiaoyao said again. The eyes finally looked at the two who were stupid.

"What the hell is this—yam?" Li Dayu looked at Qin Xiaoyao with a puzzled expression.

This thing looks like a firewood stick, what's the use of digging it?

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Li Daniu, and successfully made Li Daniu's skin tense a little.

"What the hell is it? Just do what I say! When the matter is done, the good 100 literary wages are indispensable for the two of you! ”

After speaking, Qin Xiaoyao looked at Liu Daniu again.

Liu Daniu frowned at this time.

With such a large piece of land, according to Qin Sanya's digging method just now, it is not easy to finish the work in one day.

It's strange to say that you have to give a hundred clerks, but this money is really not so easy to earn.

But everyone is here, so let's do it.

If you get this hundred papers, you can cut a few catties of meat to satisfy your family's cravings.

"Done! Sister-in-law Song, rest assured, we will keep the work and do a good job! So Liu Daniu said.

A flash of appreciation flashed in Qin Xiaoyao's eyes.

"Then don't be stunned, finish it early, and call it a day early." Opening.

"I'll do it with you for a while, too."

"But, I'll have to go to town later to get some medicine for my father-in-law. When I go back, I'll have to come back in the afternoon. ”

"These yams, you two have to help me dig them well, and you are not allowed to swallow them privately." As he spoke, Qin Xiaoyao's gaze sharpened.

His eyes were particularly focused on Li Daniu, with a strong warning in his eyes.

Li Daniu's skin instantly tightened again.

"Put—rest assured. It's useless for us to bring this stick. ”

Liu Daniu also nodded.

"Sister-in-law Song, don't worry, since I promised to help you work, I, Liu Daniu, won't do those bastard things!" Promised.

Qin Xiaoyao responded.

The first to carry the hoe to the side and began to work.

Seeing this, Liu Daniu glanced at his daughter-in-law, went to the other side, and began to work.

Qin Sanya is right, finish it early, and finish it early.

Seeing this, Li Daniu followed Liu Daniu.

Qin Xiaoyao didn't say anything, brandished his hoe and began to dig yams.

After digging for almost half an hour, Qin Xiaoyao had already dug up more than 100 catties of yams.

Seeing that there was enough to send to Laifu Building, Qin Xiaoyao stopped.

As a result, when I walked to Li Daniu's side, I found that the two of them dug up a little more yam than she dug alone.

Knowing that the reason why he dug fast was because of his ability, Qin Xiaoyao didn't say much.

He went to the side and cut down the branches, and tied up a total of more than 200 catties of yams into two bundles.

After that, he cut down a tree and used it as a flat burden, ready to carry the yam home.

"You two go on, you can go home and eat by yourself at noon, and then come back in the afternoon."

Qin said a word, picked up the yam and left.

I'm afraid that her calculation was still wrong, and the yams in the middle grew much better than the outside.

The yams in this yam field are by no means as simple as six or seven hundred catties.

If you're lucky, digging up thousands of pounds may not be a problem.

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaoyao's heart became more steady.

After hurrying home, Qin Xiaoyao dismantled the yam.

After that, he weighed more than 100 catties again, and then tied it up.

Then, he put the twelve pairs of straw sandals that he had braided yesterday, and the two pockets of brown rice and rough flour, and the three jars into the basket.

Then he carried two bundles of yams on his back and set off to the town.

Today's departure time was a little late, and by the time Qin Xiaoyao arrived at the city gate, the sun was already almost in the sky.

The officers and soldiers guarding the city saw that Qin Xiaoyao had brought a lot of things, and this time they actually charged her three cents for entering the city, which made Qin Xiaoyao feel a little painful.

After entering the city, Qin Xiaoyao went directly to Laifu Building.

After reporting his name, he then met his own Uncle Zhao as he wished.

Uncle Zhao saw Qin Xiaoyao sweating profusely, his face was still a little muddy, and his expression was a little embarrassed.

Yesterday, he still felt that the situation that Brother Qin told him was a bit exaggerated.

Now it seems that his niece is living a more miserable life than he thought.

"Drink your saliva, look at this mess." Uncle Zhao went to the side and carried a teapot and personally poured a glass of water for Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao was not polite, and after taking it, he drank it with a grunt.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhao!" After drinking, I thanked him. This look seems to be extremely thirsty just now.

"Just a sip of water, thank you?!" Uncle Zhao replied angrily.

"You girl is really, picking such a heavy thing, you don't know how to wait on the side of the official road, take an ox cart?"

More than 100 catties of yams, even if a man picks up this town from Xiashui Village, it will not be easy.

"Hehe, what kind of ox cart are you sitting in? I had a lot of strength and I didn't feel too tired. Qin Xiaoyao replied with a smile.

Where can you not get tired? After all, if she exerts force for a long time, she also has to use her abilities.

But compared to that little ability cost, she was even more reluctant to spend money now.

After they go to the village entrance and leave the village, they can go to the official road, and if they wait for the ox cart to go to the town on the official road, the fare is not expensive, only two pennies.

But she brought too many things, and if she wanted to take the ox cart, she would have to add two or three dollars.

As a result, the fare will be expensive.

She might as well work harder and walk on her own.

Anyway, after changing into straw sandals, she walked a lot easier than before.

"You-" A look of helplessness flashed on Uncle Zhao's face.

Knowing that my niece's family was in trouble now, I didn't persuade him more.

Immediately, without much delay, he asked people to weigh Qin Xiaoyao's yam.

In the end, Qin Xiaoyao brought a total of one hundred and two catties of yams.

Qin Xiaoyao's original meaning was that more money was not counted, but only as an addition.

Uncle Zhao refused, and insisted on paying Qin Xiaoyao according to the weight of one hundred and two catties.

"It's five hundred and ten in total. and thou shalt give you five pieces of silver, plus ten plates of brass. Uncle Zhao took the money and handed it to Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao hurriedly took it, his face happy.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhao!" Thank you again.

"There's nothing to thank!" Uncle Zhao replied with a smile.

"I don't know your yam. But our host knows that it's a good thing. ”

"But Laifulou has never served this dish before, and I don't know what the reaction is. I only bought a hundred catties with you. ”

"Now that the stuff is here, I've told the kitchen to start making it. Wait to see how it goes, if the food is easy to sell, I'll inform your dad and ask you to send it again. ”

Qin Xiaoyao hurriedly thanked him again.

"Don't thank you any more. You girl, now you look like this, if your aunt sees it, I'm afraid it will be distressing. ”

As he spoke, Uncle Zhao came out of his pocket with a piece of silver.

"Uncle didn't bring any money today, you can take this money and buy some good ones."
