Chapter 122 Earning Money While Lying Down

Why would you need to buy something that's everywhere? Just dig it up, right?

Ji Hong: "In short, you guys hurry up and dig. Someone will buy it once you've dug it up."

The group always kept Ji Hong's word. Despite their doubts, everyone, young and old, grabbed snakeskin bags and started digging for bamboo shoots.

"Brother Mu, why is Aunt Hong asking us to dig these up?" A little girl dressed in dirty clothes asked curiously with wide eyes as she peeled bamboo shoots.

"I don't know." Lin Xiaomu pulled on the bag, lying on the ground, covered in mud, but still working hard. "Aunt Hong told us to dig, so we listened to her."

He picked up a large bamboo shoot with both hands and looked at it carefully. "I wish I could eat this. I'm so hungry."

I came with Aunt Hong to exchange rice today, and I haven't had breakfast yet.

My stomach is empty.

The girl's name was Xiaoqi. She glanced at Lin Xiaomu and said, "Aunt Hong seemed to say that this can be exchanged for money, and that we should dig it up to exchange for money."

Lin Xiaomu blinked. "Really? These are all poisonous substances. How are we going to get money from them?"

Xiaoqi shook her head. She didn't understand either; sometimes, adults' words were hard to comprehend.

Jiang Yan and Lin An were also picking up trash.

"Sister Lin, why are some people digging bamboo shoots like us?" Jiang Yan asked, looking at the group of people not far away. "What's going on with that group?"

Lin An glanced at it. "They're from the Black Alley. Yesterday, your sister said she wanted the people from the Black Alley to pick up trash too, so she probably told them the news."

As they were talking, Lin An suddenly dug out a super big bamboo shoot, half the height of a person and thicker than a thigh.

Jiang Yan glanced at it. "What a huge piece of trash. It should be worth a lot of money, right?"

Lin An hugged the bamboo shoot, then picked up the large bag as well. "I'll take these back first."

After saying that, he strode back to the farm and threw the large bamboo shoots in his hand into the machine.

[Mutant bamboo shoots: 52 jin]

Total buyback value: 72 points

Payment has been made.

They also dumped a lot of trash from the bag into it.

[Mutant bamboo shoots: 105 jin (approximately 34.5 catties)]

[Mutant wild vegetable: 8 jin (4 catties)]

Total buyback value: 151 points.

Payment has been made.

Jiang Li was still selling potatoes when she received another notification that points had been credited to her account: one transaction of 7.2 points and another of 15.1 points.

?

It seems Lin An and Jiang Yan went to collect trash again.

[Light in the Dark Alley: Recycling 1000 catties of trash! (577/1000)!]

Since the machine appeared yesterday, the two men have become obsessed with picking up trash and have collected 577 pounds of trash in a short period of time.

Jiang Li did nothing and earned over 70 points in commission, all of which came from these two people.

Actually, garbage collection is a good business, and if you expand and strengthen it, you can make a lot of money.

After all, unlike fertilizer converters, garbage recycling machines don't require conversion; they have no upper limit, and the more garbage they collect each day, the higher their commission.

I might as well farm and collect garbage at the same time; that way, I can make a decent living.

"The last batch of sweet potatoes is sold out. Everyone else can leave now."

"What? Sold out? Didn't you say there were over 300 jin of potatoes and sweet potatoes? How come they're all gone so quickly?"

Over three days, Jiang Li prepared 1000 jin of discounted grain, which was distributed to just over 200 people, so naturally not everyone could buy it.

Some people who benefited were overjoyed, while those who didn't were dejected.

Jiang Tang started packing her things. "Let's go, Xiao Li, let's go back for dinner."

Ye Qing came to help a lot today as usual. When it was time to close up shop, Jiang Li gave her a bag of fried green peas. "Ye Qing, thank you for today. These are some snacks I made myself. You should try them."

Ye Qing waved her hand, "Sister Jiang Li, you don't need to pay me. I've finished all the work in my fields, and I was free anyway. I only lent a hand because I saw you were too busy. Besides, I didn't really help much."

Jiang Tang smiled and said, "Little sister, this is from my son Xiao Li, so please keep it. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to finish so quickly today. Look, it's not even noon yet! You've been a great help to us."

After several attempts to refuse, Ye Qing couldn't bring herself to refuse any longer. She accepted the fried green peas and left happily.

Jiang Tang and Jiang Li pushed the farm stall cart back to the farm together.

People who bought discounted food today happily went home and stewed potatoes.

"I heard that the potatoes grown by Miss Jiang are especially delicious!"

"Really?"

"If you don't believe me, go back and try it. People who bought potatoes yesterday and the day before said they were delicious, and they smelled good no matter how you cooked them."

"..."

"You jinx!"

Seeing that the neighboring families and the landowners in front of the house had all bought a lot of discounted grain, Su's mother became increasingly angry.

Originally, she and Su Wenhu could have bought ten catties of potatoes, but because of Su Xiao, who is so brainless, now, all the good things that Jiang Li wants to do will be left out of their lives.

Su Xiao bit her lip in grievance and clenched her fists.

Mother Su: "You should learn from Ye Qing. Ye Qing is even younger than you. Look how good she is with Jiang Li. Your Aunt Jiang said she just saw Jiang Li give Ye Qing a bag of green peas!"

That bag must weigh at least a pound.

"Green peas?" Su Xiao asked, puzzled. "Weren't green peas extinct? Now we can't even get the seeds. Where did Jiang Li get them?"

Su's mother: "Where else could it be? It's most likely related to her special ability?"

Su Xiao frowned. "But isn't her ability only supposed to accelerate plant growth?"

Who knows?

Su's mother felt that Jiang Li was like a monster.

"Who's a kind soul who can grow a thousand kilograms of potatoes and sweet potatoes in a single day?"

Su Xiao: "Mom, how do you know she grew all this grain in just one day?"

"Are you stupid? She's willing to sell so many potatoes and sweet potatoes for thirty points. What does that mean? It means that this amount of food is nothing to her!"

Therefore, Su's mother deduced that Jiang Li could definitely grow a lot of grain in a day, perhaps more than a thousand catties.

Mother Su frowned. "That girl has some secrets. Maybe besides her superpowers, she has some treasures we can't even imagine. Otherwise, how did that wall come about? I heard it rose from the ground overnight. That's really rare. Do you think wood-based superpowers can build walls? How is that possible?"

"Besides, I've heard that superhumans don't actually have that much ability. Those newly awakened superhumans are like fledglings, completely useless, unlike someone like Jiang Li."

Now, they can't see what Jiang Li does inside the walls every day.

Upon hearing her mother's words, Su Xiao's eyes darkened slightly. She also felt that Jiang Li's secret was definitely not just about wood-type superpowers. Could it be that Jiang Li really had some kind of treasure?

"Did you even listen to what I said? That girl is incredibly capable! You need to find a way to get along with her and stop making foolish mistakes! Understand?"

Su Xiao sneered.

How can I improve my relationship with her?

Why does she want to get along with Jiang Li?

Since we know Jiang Li has a treasure, why not just find a way to snatch it away? No matter what abilities Jiang Li has, we should take it for ourselves, make it ours, and become stronger. That's the mindset of a true strong person.
