Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich

The howling sea breeze blew the hair around the ears, and the sparks swayed and jumped in the distance. The wind was released into the space, and the temporary temperature difference stimulated it to shake its head and snort.

Liu Qingcao gently touched and comforted it, and it took a while before it returned to normal.

"Junfeng, I have wronged you, and these two apples are considered as compensation." Liu Qingcao took out two big red apples and handed them to them. Junfeng suddenly lit up his eyes and took them away with his mouth, with his tail hanging wagging. , indicating that it is in a very good mood at this time.

After Junfeng finished eating, Liu Qingcao took him to the fishermen's houses. Those little lights in the dark night were the fires lit in front of each fishermen's courtyard.

It's just that the night that should have been silent was now filled with deafening noise.

Liu Qingcao stopped and listened suspiciously for a few breaths, but didn't get a clear meaning. She walked forward a little further, and the voice began to become clearer.

"Sanniang, please give them the money. We have enough strength. When we go to Shanghai tomorrow, we can still get some fish back. Don't argue with them. Think about the children in the house." The man said. The woman stood behind him, comforting and persuading.

This year, the officials collected money three times, each time more and more. Early this morning, the officials came again. They couldn't keep the money they had saved for several months. How could he not hate it, but he knew how cruel those people were.

It has entered winter, and the weather these days has been different from previous years. He said he would go fishing on the sea again, but he knew better than anyone else that with this sudden change in the weather, fish in the water would not be as easy to catch as usual.

"Lang Sheng, this is the last bit of money in the family. If I hand it over today, how will we survive this winter? Look at how cold it is at night. It's going to get colder. They come to collect it at this time. This is not left to anyone. A way to survive..." The woman clenched the money in her hand, her whole body trembling with excitement, her voice rose a little higher, and she even cried out at the end.

As soon as the woman said these words, the noise around them suddenly stopped. When Liu Qingcao approached, he happened to see the lingering sadness on their faces.

Just now she heard that officials came to collect money again. She remembered that Gan Changsu said that the court would not collect money in winter. Why did money collection here happen so frequently?

Could it be that the imperial court is planning to do something this winter?

Liu Qingcao frowned. She had no time to pay attention to what was happening around her, and was focused on thinking about various possibilities.

"Little girl, little girl."

A woman stood in front of Liu Qingcao and called her. She called several times and saw no response from her, so her voice became a little louder and her tone was slightly anxious. She stretched out her hand and put it on Liu Qingcao's arm, trying to shake him back to his senses. .

Someone grabbed Liu Qingcao's arm, and the sudden touch made her suddenly look up at the person in front of her, with deep vigilance in her eyes.

When he saw the person in front of him clearly, he blinked a few times and his eyes softened instantly.

"Auntie, thank you so much." Embarrassment flashed across Liu Qingcao's face. After apologetically thanking her, she asked about what was going on here, "Auntie, what's going on? Did something happen?"

After listening to Liu Qingcao's words, the woman's originally pretty face became angry again. She wanted to tell her everything again, but she also thought that Liu Qingcao looked only twelve or thirteen years old, and it wouldn't be of much use if she said it, so she just shut up. The upper mouth no longer opens.

Liu Qingcao looked at the woman strangely, wondering why the woman just looked at her and hesitated to speak.

Liu Qingcao wanted to ask again, but the woman didn't even look at her, turned around and returned to the yard with a sigh.

"..."

It seems like she didn’t offend anyone with her words! ?

Liu Qingcao recalled it, but he didn't realize that there was anything unpleasant about him.

Naturally, she wouldn't give up until she got the needed information. There were so many people here, and she still didn't believe that they wouldn't tell her.

The crying woman was persuaded by everyone to go back to the yard. There was no one left outside. Liu Qingcao was looking for Da Yu and his family in the crowd. The wind blew loudly at night, making tears come out of her eyes. After a while, she finally Find Big Fish and the others in the crowd.

"Uncle, aunt, Da Yu, what are you doing here so late?" Liu Qingcao trotted up to them and found that they were all looking sad like everyone else, so she quickly asked.

Big Fish stared at Liu Qingcao with bright eyes, and did not dare to come forward because of his excitement. He had not seen her in the village for so long, and always thought that she had left long ago, but he did not expect to see her here again.

But, it’s so late, why is the grass here?

The people in the village have always been nice, but the wind is quite strong at night. The temperature has dropped in the past few days, and there is no rest outside.

Could it be that Qingcao went to live with other villagers?

Da Yu thought of that box of snacks and felt guilty. Was it because he ate that box of snacks that she didn't want to stay at their house anymore?

Da Yu's face turned slightly pale when he thought that she had gone to another house. The light was not good at night and no one noticed anything strange about him.

"Sister Qingcao, why are you here? It's been cold these days. Do you have a place to stay? If not, just go to our house and stay." Da Yu couldn't help but speak, wanting to know the reason.

Liu Qingcao didn't expect that Da Yu would ask her suddenly. After a brief pause, he smiled and said calmly, "No, I just came today. It was already late when I came, so I didn't come to disturb you. There was a thick mattress in the carriage. It’s not cold even if you rest inside.”

After hearing this, Big Fish felt better.

"Uncle, aunt, what's wrong with you?" Liu Qingcao was anxious and wanted to know the situation quickly. The court frequently imposed levies, which made her feel very uneasy.

Big Fish's father pursed his lips bitterly, feeling angry and angry, "Oh, it's not like the people from above came to collect taxes again. The taxes were paid in the autumn, and now it's winter, and those people are here again. , one tael for each adult, five cents for the child, not to mention the money received, we fishermen can only make a living all year round, how can we afford the court." Liu Qingcao's eyelids drooped, feeling uneasy in his heart The worse.

Haizhou Fucheng has now received the order and distributed it to the people. I think Qingzhou Fucheng will also receive the news in a few days.

This amount of money is quite a lot. The combined population of Shihe Village, Shiqing Village and Shiliu Village is quite large. She is not worried about the villagers of Shihe Village.

She was worried about the other two villages and the children in her name.

By the way, there is also the Long Wasteland, where there are many people who have almost no money. The money she left behind is only enough for them to live on, and the situation there is also worrying.

Money, money, money is needed everywhere. There is no war yet, but she can still afford it. If one day she needs someone, how can she keep him? ?

Liu Qingcao rubbed the temples of his headache, and after relieving some discomfort, he raised his head and looked at the three of them, "Don't worry, maybe it's because it's cold this year and the war in the north is at a stalemate, so the soldiers will need more cold-proof clothing and food, so they will collect it again. ."

These words did not comfort the three of them at all, but made them feel uneasy.

Liu Qingcao twitched the corner of his mouth and continued, "Uncle, aunt, the weather in Haizhou is not as good as it used to be. The fish and shrimps in the sea will definitely swim elsewhere. Going fishing now will not bring much harvest. I think everyone is here Anxious about money.”

Liu Qingcao paused and looked firmly into Big Fish Daddy's eyes, "Uncle, I think I have a way for you to earn this money."

Big Fish's father and mother looked at each other with doubts on their faces.

Although the girl in front of her doesn't look like an ordinary person, she is still just a child of twelve or thirteen years old after all. There are so many people in the village who want to collect enough money in a very short time, but just thinking about it makes them feel hopeless.

I thought so in my heart, but the words that came out of my mouth were not the same.

"Qingcao, please tell me what you can do. If it is feasible, our group of people will definitely not forget your kindness." Dahai Niang looked at Liu Qingcao hopefully.

Liu Qingcao already had a plan in mind, and took out a wooden box from his sleeve with a smile.

The box is not big, only a little over an inch, and it looks very delicate in its small size.

"Uncle, aunt, these are the fruits I picked in the forest. I peeled them open and ate a few. They tasted very good. What's inside is the pulp I peeled out. You guys can try how they taste."

Liu Qingcao opened the wooden lid, revealing a piece of golden and plump flesh. The faint honey fragrance of the flesh surrounded the nose, making people swallow saliva.

"Sister Qingcao, this fruit is delicious as soon as you smell it."

This fruit is more delicious than snacks!

Big Fish's eyes were shining brightly, staring straight at the thing in Liu Qingcao's hand.

Big Fish's father and mother listened to their son's hopeless voice and fell silent. The fruit was really sweet to the smell.

But, what does this fruit have to do with the method Liu Qingcao said?

"Green grass, this, this fruit is indeed rare, but it can't be exchanged for much money." Big Fish Dad sighed secretly, how could he expect a child to come up with any good ideas?

Seeing that they didn't believe it, Liu Qingcao didn't rush to explain. She took out the fruit from the box and tore it into ten pieces.

The Dayu family looked at Liu Qingcao's actions in confusion. They didn't know why she tore a fruit into small strips. Wouldn't it be better to eat it whole?

"Uncle, aunt, big fish, how do you like it?" Liu Qingcao handed over three thick slices of fruit flesh to the blank gazes of the three of them.

The big fish reacted first, stretched out his hand and picked them up.

"Father, mother, try it quickly. This thing smells delicious, and it will taste even better when you eat it in your mouth." Big Fish gave two of the larger pulp slices to his parents, while he took the rest. The smallest and thinnest piece.

Big Fish's parents were moved to tears by their son's actions, and happily took the pieces of fruit pulp and put them into their mouths.

So sweet, sweet mouth and sweet heart.

After the big fish parents finished eating, they looked at the fruit pulp in Liu Qingcao's hand in disbelief, their eyes full of shock and confusion.

Such a small piece of pulp is sweeter than sugar! ?

What kind of fruit is this? Why haven’t they seen it before? ?

If this fruit is sold, it can really fetch a big price.

Liu Qingcao has long been accustomed to their reactions. The pulp in her hand is the new variety she found in the forest half a month ago - jackfruit.

In the space, crops mature in five days, fruit trees mature in ten days, and mature in ten days. The transplanted saplings have already grown into big trees and bloomed and bear fruit, and the fruits were ripe just a few days ago.

There are so many fruit trees, and the fruits in the warehouse are piling up like mountains. If you don't find a way to exchange them for money, you can only keep them there for a while.

The only fruit in the space is the large and fleshy jackfruit, which is perfect for solving problems at this time, and there is such a fruit tree in the forest. Although the fruit produced on the tree is very different from the ones she took out, there are traces to follow. This way it is not easy for people to detect the clues easily.
