Chapter 58: Seedling
If it were in modern times, the rice sold at the supermarket near her home would be around 2-3 yuan per kilogram. Three kilograms of rice would cost around 8 yuan. A bag of refined salt weighing 200 grams costs 2 yuan, which is equivalent to 5 yuan per kilogram. Four kilograms of refined salt would cost no more than 20 yuan.
The distance from eight yuan to twenty yuan is all the silver money Chu Lishou has now.
Although farmers generally do not intentionally buy grain to eat, and the dishes delivered to their doors are either picked from the mountains or grown in their own fields, these necessities like oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar are needed every day. If they were to separate now, Gui Hua simply cannot believe how her family of a few people would make a living.
"Hey, don't worry too much, even if our family splits up, I believe Dad won't let us down." Chu Lishou finally spoke up, although the credibility of his words wasn't high, it still gave the family a glimmer of hope.
Last night, lying on the kang, Guihua seriously considered for the first time the possibility of making money as soon as possible.
With her clever little brain, equipped with advanced modern technology, Osmanthus does not believe that she cannot lead her family to prosperity. However, some things are not as simple as she thinks, and a reasonable reason or excuse is needed to explain everything she can do, which is feasible.
Otherwise, at the age of twelve, she has done so many unbelievable things that she would probably be treated as a monster before she can make a fortune.
In this backward feudal society, if a family has a child prodigy, it is likely to bring about no good consequences.
"Osmanthus! Osmanthus!" Chu Yan's voice suddenly appeared beside her ear, and only then did Gui Hua realize that she had dozed off again.
"Brother!" Chu Yan Nian smiled apologetically and asked, "What's up, what did you call me for?"
Chu Yan Nian's eyes showed a few points of worry, but he still said: "Xiao De has a stomachache, I'll take him to the restroom, you wait here for us, don't wander off. This forest looks sparse, but in reality it's dense and tight, if we scatter, it will be hard to find each other again."
After listening to Chu Yan Nian's words, Gui Hua nodded dazedly and watched as Chu Yan Nian walked away with Chu Yan De. Only then did Gui Hua remember something and hurriedly shouted: "Brother, wherever I go, I'll leave a mark, so it will be easy for you to find me when you come back!"
Chu Yan Nian responded loudly, but his footsteps quickened, compared to Chu Yande who was getting impatient and couldn't help but urge on his big brother.
There was no one around, and in the vast forest, only Guihua was left alone. This little girl wasn't afraid at all, but instead seemed very excited.
She had just seen a few familiar-looking seedlings mixed in with the grass while picking wild vegetables, and if she hadn't been sharp-eyed, it wouldn't have been easy to spot them. Now that there was no one around, she went back to find those seedlings and see what was hidden underground.
Osmanthus fragrans looked at the marks she had made earlier and soon found that seedling.
With some tension and inexplicable excitement, Guihua didn't care if her hands would hurt or not, she bent down to dig the soil under the seedlings with her hands.
"Hmm, is this the legendary female lead halo? " Guihua smiled and looked at the two small pumpkins lying in her hands, her heart filled with excitement.
