Jiang Saburo hurriedly responded.

Xi Zizi returned home with the silver money on his back, took out a silver ingot of five taels and gave it to the little girl, and took another 1,500 wen for himself, and gave the rest to his wife.

He took the copper coins to the eldest brother's house, called two nephews, and one of them divided 100 wen, and gave the eldest brother and the second brother 500 wen each.

Because when his family built a bamboo shed and a drying stove, they all came to help.

gave his father and mother another 300 filial piety, and then said with a smile: "The golden ear that Yingbao picked up in the woods was sold by me today, and I got thirty yuan." ”

"Thirty runs?" Jiang Dalang was surprised, "That golden ear is not made of gold, why is it so valuable?" ”

Jiang Saburo smiled: "It's worth more than gold." ”

He said to the eldest brother and the second brother: "I have given birth to another batch, and now it is only budding, and when it grows up, I will give some of the golden ear roots to the eldest brother and the second brother, and teach you to raise some of them." ”

Jiang Dalang Jiang Erlang nodded happily.

Jiang Erlang was embarrassed to accept the third brother's money, and excused himself: "I still owe you three times, how can I ask for these five hundred dollars." ”

Jiang Sanlang said with a smile: "Second brother, you take it and use it first, and then pay me back when you make money." ”

"That's good." Jiang Erlang took back the money and sighed in his heart.

After leaving, he took two babies by himself, and life was not easy, but he did not regret it. I also made up my mind to make a lot of money in the future, so that I and my children can live a good life, and I don't show jokes to others.

But making money is easier said than done.

Recently, I have been busy with farmland, and I don't have time to go outside to find a living, and I can't even get ten pennies at hand.

If it weren't for the eldest brother and sister-in-law to let their family come back for dinner every day, it is estimated that he would not be able to sustain even two meals a day.

Alas, if the third brother's golden ears can really be sold at a high price, then he will have hope, and he will not be able to make money if he grows a little bit with the third brother?

Thinking of this, Jiang Erlang proposed that he wanted to see the golden ear cultivated by the third brother.

Jiang Saburo was naturally happy and took the second brother and the old father to his yard.

Now the yard of Jiang Saburo's house is extremely cramped, not only has a chicken shed and a deer shed, but also a bamboo shed, a two-person high earthen kiln.

A wooden shelf is placed in the bamboo shed, and the wooden frame has two layers, and each layer is placed with ten dead mulberry trees of one length and one long mulberry wood.

More than a dozen holes were dug into the mulberry wood, and the holes were stuffed with rice husk sawdust and planted with golden fungus roots.

At this time, the golden fungus has been germicized, and the stars are golden, which is very gratifying.

"If it all grows, how much will it cost to sell?" Jiang Dalang exclaimed. When they were counted, they found twenty dead mulberry trees.

If every mulberry tree grows ten golden ears, that's two hundred.

Two hundred golden fungus, how much silver do you have to sell for after drying?

Jiang Dalang's heart trembled.

A while ago, when the third brother baked golden ears, he also came to see it, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, no one has ever seen this thing, and I don't know if it's really valuable.

Now that San Lang is really selling at a high price, and he has earned as much as thirty times at a time, how can he not be envious to the point of palpitations.

Just a dozen dried golden ears are sold for so much money, so how much money do these two hundred golden ears have to make?

Hey, I can't even think about it.

Jiang Dalang turned his head and asked the third brother: "San Lang, where did you find the golden ear seedlings, why don't we also look for them and look at them with you." ”

He couldn't wait any longer, so he had to go into the mountains immediately to find the golden ear.

Jiang Saburo scratched his head, "This is Sakura Bao's finding, I'll go and ask." ”

So, Sakura Bao, who came back from the deer, was surrounded by the eldest uncle and the second uncle, and asked her expectantly where she got the golden ear.

Sakura blinked: "I found it in the woods over there, but it's gone, or let's go to Beishan to find it." ”

She still remembers that the tattered boy said that the firewood was cut in Shita Mountain, Beishan.

"Good! Let's go to Beishan to find out. Jiang Dalang slapped his thigh and said excitedly. There are many forests and mulberry trees in the northern mountains, so you may be able to find them.

The next day, Jiang Saburo carried his daughter on his back and led his eldest brother, second brother and two nephews into the mountain.

Just in case, they all brought bows, arrows, ropes, machetes, and baskets.

There are many fruit trees in Beishan, and it is in early spring in March, and the peach blossoms and apricot blossoms in the mountains are competing to open, and they are beautiful.

This reminded Sakura of the fruit seedlings in the cave, and he had to think of a plan to plant them in Nanshan as soon as possible.

The group walked and ran several hills, and I don't know how many trees they searched, but they didn't find the golden fungus, but they accidentally found a few egg-sized snow fungus.

Sakura was pleasantly surprised, and did not allow Daddy to move around, but only let them cut down the dead mulberry tree and carry it home.

Because it was a dead tree, Jiang Saburo did not hesitate, and worked with the eldest brother and second brother to cut down this dead tree with a thick bowl mouth.

"I don't know whose family owns this land, and no one has come to take care of it."

Jiang Dalang muttered, looked around, and urged the two younger brothers to leave quickly. "We can't be seen, let's go."

He was worried that the owner of this land would find out that his brothers were stealing and cutting down other people's trees, and if they were caught, it would be a vicious battle.

Jiang Erlang stood on the high slope and looked at it for a while, and said, "Don't get in the way, this land should be taken over, and no one will take care of it." ”

According to the law of the Great Qian Dynasty, after the death of the landlord, the land under his name must be returned to the imperial court, and then distributed to other men who have just become a Ding later.

Therefore, the owner of this land either died, or the whole family fled the field, that is, fled the famine.

Jiang Dalang was happy when he heard it, and immediately instructed his two sons: "Hurry up and look around, if there is any snow ear here." ”

It was the first time he had seen this thing, and he heard his little niece and third brother say that it was called Xue'er, which was also very valuable, and Li Lang's Chinese pharmacy sold it, so he was busy asking his two sons to find it quickly.

Jiang Cheng Jiang Quan agreed and went to look for it separately.

Not to mention, I really found a mulberry tree with snow fungus nearby.

It's just that the snow fungus on this tree is very small, bigger than a fingernail, but it is better than the number of them, and there are several tufts of them.

So Sakura asked Daddy to cut down the whole tree and take it away.

In the evening, several members of the Jiang family returned to the village carrying two sections of dead trees.

Although the villagers I met were curious that they brought the whole dead tree back, they didn't ask.

After all, everyone has been short of firewood, and it is common to come back from Beishan to chop firewood.

The two dead trees were sent to the courtyard of Jiang Saburo's house, and the three brothers pinched the heads and tails of the trees, leaving only the middle section, leaning against the bamboo shed.

At night, Sakura secretly sprinkled the snow fungus on the two dead trees with the water of the cave pond, and then sprinkled the golden fungus again, and then went back to the house to rest.

Looking at it the next day, Xue Er not only did not die, but also grew up.

Sakura Po was delighted.

Seeing that there is a snow fungus, she will get some to raise in the cave.

More than 20 days have passed.

The golden fungus in Jiang Saburo's bamboo shed can finally be harvested.

The snow fungus on the two mulberry tree segments also grows into a crystal one, which is more beautiful than the golden fungus, but the snow fungus is a little loose and loose, not very shaped, and there is no golden ear neat.

He washed his hands with Chunniang and carefully harvested them with the newly bought thin knife.

Then remove all the roots of the golden fungus, carefully place it on the hollow bamboo drawer, part of it is left in the sun to the sun, and the other part is baked in the kiln.

The white fungus was also cut off, scattered on the bamboo drawer, and pushed into the drying oven with a part of the golden fungus.

The weather has been exceptionally sunny in the past few days, and in only five days, 100 golden ears have been very dry.

Jiang Saburo picked one up and looked at it, compared it with his own baking, and said, "The golden fungus baked in the stove is drier, but the color is not as good as the sun." ”

Chunniang thinks that the quality of drying is better, but it is too troublesome and tiring.

Because someone has to guard the kiln all night, add firewood and remove the fire at any time, and keep the temperature of the furnace neither high nor low. In the past few days, my husband has lost weight.
