Rebirth at the starting point of happiness
Chapter 59 Buying Ginseng
Xu Hui carefully polished the little toy he made until it was smooth.
The cousin made a Luban toy and polished it to make it smooth for Xinyue and the others to play with. As an old carpenter, he looked down on those fancy and unskilled gadgets made by Xu Hui. It was already the limit for him to accompany them in such a scene. He just thought of it as teaching his eldest son how to do carpentry skills.
Xu Hui planned to sell all the toys except the ones he gave to his younger brother.
Now it is a collective economy, individual labor is illegal and will be looked down upon. However, you can exchange or sell the fruits of your labor to a purchasing station.
The purchasing stations will then distribute them for sale.
Anyway, the fact that they could make money from selling the things stimulated everyone in the family and made them very motivated.
After they were all done, I was reluctant to sell the smaller ones.
Xu Hui sent Su Qiuyue to the car and rushed home. When Su Qiuyue arrived in the town, she went straight to Zhao Hongyan.
"Oh my god, how come your family members are so skillful? They can make all this?" Zhao Hongyan looked through the toys that Su Qiuyue brought, feeling extremely curious.
"Sister Hongyan, will the purchasing station accept this? We are just a few sisters and we want to make some pocket money before the New Year. If they don't accept it, I'll have to find other ways." Su Qiuyue said.
"The town doesn't accept them, but the city does. I've seen something similar. But I don't know where they're sold.
These little gadgets are hard to come by, both for buyers and sellers." Zhao Hongyan said truthfully.
But there are still people in the city and provincial capital who buy it. This thing is not common. No one is willing to waste time making it.
"It's okay, I'll go back and ask my uncle. He knows a lot of people, so he must know where to get it.
Please wait a moment, I'll be back soon." Zhao Hongyan went out with Su Qiuyue's bag.
Su Qiuyue was bored and went to the hospital to see what medicinal materials were available at the purchasing office.
Many of the medicinal herbs sent to the hospital have been dried and placed there in bags.
It also needs to be prepared by people in the hospital before it can be used.
Su Qiuyue was just watching the fun, even if there was good medicine, she couldn't afford it. If she took out so much money, it would easily arouse suspicion.
After looking around and finding nothing interesting, she left the purchasing station and went to the pharmacy to wait for Zhao Hongyan.
"Girl?! Are you buying medicine?"
Su Qiuyue was startled by the sudden voice on the side of the road. She turned her head and saw an old man at the foot of the house.
Su Qiuyue shook her head and continued walking forward, but she didn't expect the old man to follow closely.
"Girl, I have some good medicine. The best medicine."
The old man said to her unwillingly. Su Qiuyue was a little scared and walked forward avoiding the old man.
Seeing that she didn't believe it, the old man took out a cloth bag from his arms while speaking anxiously. He opened a corner with trembling hands, looked around cautiously, and handed it to Su Qiuyue.
Su Qiuyue couldn't help but take a look, and then she was stunned.
Ginseng?! A rather large ginseng at that.
"Girl, it's true, it's true. Come, follow me." The old man saw that she stopped and quickly pulled her to the side.
"My daughter, I am not lying. This is an old ginseng. My father discovered it when I was a child, decades ago.
If my only grandson didn't need to go to a big hospital for treatment, I wouldn't have given it out no matter what.
I sent it to the purchasing station before, but the price was too low. I couldn't bear to give it away. Look at my ginseng." The old man carefully opened the cloth bag and showed the ginseng to Su Qiuyue.
The ginseng was not small, and its roots were particularly intact. Su Qiuyue knew that this ginseng must be a hundred-year-old ginseng.
"My father said that he dug this ginseng for two days to get the complete root. Spending the night in the mountains is fatal.
We have carefully preserved it over the years, and it is in such good condition now. Look, my girl, this one is at least more than 200 years old." The old man said to Su Qiuyue while carefully turning over the ginseng in his hand.
Su Qiuyue could tell that it was real, but she didn't know the exact age, and she didn't know how much the old man wanted to sell it for.
As for what the money was for, she didn't believe it and didn't care.
But it is credible that he sent her to the purchasing station. Just now when the old man approached her, she saw the people from the purchasing station come out to see.
Maybe he thought that a young girl like her definitely couldn't afford it so he went back.
"Then how much do you plan to sell it for?" Su Qiuyue asked.
"Two thousand?" the old man asked tentatively. He knew that it was impossible for anyone else to come up with the money all at once, let alone her, a little girl, but he had to try.
Seeing Su Qiuyue staring at him with wide eyes, he quickly changed his words.
"One thousand five?"
The old man stared at Su Qiuyue nervously. He had finally mustered up the courage to get someone to sell ginseng. He knew that he might not be able to find one, but he had to try even if there was a little hope.
Seeing that Su Qiuyue didn't say anything, the old man became a little anxious and spoke quickly.
"One thousand! One thousand is the lowest. It can't be any lower. This is really a hundred-year-old ginseng. It can't be any lower. If it's any lower, it won't be enough for my grandson's medical treatment."
The old man was really anxious. He didn't expect that he couldn't sell the treasure in his hand. What would happen to his grandson?
"Uncle, even if I want to buy it, I can't bring much money with me." Su Qiuyue saw that he was really anxious, so she had to speak up.
"Are you buying it? Are you really buying it? My dear, are you really buying it?" The old man didn't expect her to agree, and he excitedly confirmed it again and again.
"My girl, this is real ginseng, there is absolutely no mistake. You will not suffer any loss if you buy it. Really." The old man kept assuring.
"I want to buy it, but I don't have that much money now." Su Qiuyue said softly.
"No money? That won't work. I can't wait any longer." The old man became excited when he heard this.
Su Qiuyue could only carefully pull the excited old man and hide in the alley next to her.
"Uncle, calm down. I can't carry so much money with me. Do you want to wait?" Su Qiuyue was really tempted by ginseng. This thing is hard to come by.
"Okay, okay, how long do you want me to wait? I don't have much time. I really can't wait too long." The old man calmed down when he heard that there was hope. It was indeed too much money. How could a little girl carry it on her?
Su Qiuyue, on the other hand, didn't know what to do.
She was rich, but it was a big risk to spend so much money. However, she really couldn't resist the temptation of this ginseng.
"Tomorrow, tomorrow at the bus station. If you still want to sell it, go and wait for me there." Su Qiuyue said with a gritted heart.
"Okay, my girl, you must come. I will definitely go, definitely go." The old man was a little anxious at first, but now he heard that he would be at the bus station tomorrow, so he had to wait anxiously.
After confirming it again and again, he reluctantly watched Su Qiuyue leave.
Before Su Qiuyue arrived at the place, she saw Zhao Hongyan waiting for her at the intersection. When he saw her, he hurried over to meet her.
"Going to the hospital again? My uncle said that he was going on a business trip after the New Year, so he could take those things with him. I'll tell him exactly what happened when he comes back." Zhao Hongyan explained the whereabouts of Su Qiuyue's things in a flash. She didn't even need to answer anything, it was very quick.
"That's great. It still has to be Sister Hongyan. She's so different when she makes a move. I thought she would just send it to a recycling station at most." Su Qiuyue didn't expect that her uncle would actually like these little things.
"It's because you have the ability." Zhao Hongyan said modestly with a laugh.
"Okay, we are capable, and when we meet Sister Hongyan who is even more capable, maybe we will be able to make money again in the future. What do you call this? This is called the right time, the right place, and the right people." Su Qiuyue said happily.
Who would have thought that if this succeeded, they would have another way to make money.
After separating from Zhao Hongyan, Su Qiuyue went to stay in the hospital dormitory. Although her relationship with Zhao Hongyan became closer and closer, Su Qiuyue still deliberately kept her distance.
Apart from business dealings, she didn't want to get too close to anyone. After all, money and interests were involved, and if there were too many emotions involved, it would be difficult to handle disputes in the future.
So even if he stayed in the hospital dormitory, he would never go to Zhao Hongyan's house. The two of them got along more comfortably this way.
At night, Su Qiuyue went to her space and thought about it and counted out 1,600 yuan. If the other person really wanted to see a doctor for his child, she didn't want to take advantage of him.
You have to think carefully before picking up money. Money used to treat illnesses and save lives, and money used to support education, must be returned. If you take advantage of this, it will hurt the harmony of nature.
Ginseng is really good ginseng, no matter where it is sold, it can be sold at a good price. The price of 2,000 is actually appropriate.
But the price was always reduced in the transaction, and if she really gave that much, she was afraid of arousing suspicion. So after thinking about it, she reduced it a little.
She put all the change together, trying to make it look like she had put it together. Fortunately, the money she had was from Zhao Hongyan selling grain from house to house.
Most of it was small change, and some food coupons. She had food in her space, so she basically didn't need to use the food coupons. She scraped together and put them together to make about 1,800 yuan. That should be enough.
But since it was such a thick stack of money, Su Qiuyue found a piece of cloth and carefully wrapped it up, preparing to give it to the old man tomorrow.
The next day, Su Qiuyue ate breakfast leisurely and went to the bus station when she thought the bus back home was about to arrive.
Before I even got to the place, I saw the old man from yesterday. There was another man next to him. When I got closer, I could see that he looked somewhat like the old man. He should be his son.
"My daughter, you are here." The old man's son stayed where he was, and the old man came over.
Su Qiuyue nodded and walked aside.
The transaction went smoothly. Su Qiuyue inspected the goods, and the old man and his son counted the money and quickly separated.
They didn't expect it to sell for so much money, and since Su Qiuyue gave the money so readily, they were afraid that she would regret it.
Su Qiuyue knew that it was expensive, but the item was worth the price. She knew how valuable it would be in the future, so she didn't want to bargain too hard.
Both parties felt they had gotten a good deal, so they left as soon as the deal was done and never saw each other again.
Su Qiuyue got in the car and left. She was so excited all the way.
Finally getting home, Su Qiuyue hid in the west room under the pretext of washing up. Then she entered the space. Only then did she carefully look at the ginseng in her hand.
Gently touch each of these hair roots. It is so beautiful.
Su Qiuyue admired it until she had enough time before she found a piece of cloth to wrap it up and put it in the warehouse.
She planned to ask her cousin to make her a box tomorrow and put it in it.
Su Qiuyue was in a very good mood after buying such good ginseng. She would sneak into the space from time to time to admire the ginseng.
"It would be great if there were seeds. Then this would be a ginseng field. And it would be ginseng of good vintage."
Looking at the mottled green and black soil, Su Qiuyue's heart was filled with joy. Life was becoming more and more promising.
Sun Yanqiu came back just in time for Song Xiaojuan's wedding.
Su Qiuyue explained to her in detail the causes and consequences of this sudden incident, causing Sun Yanqiu to scream in surprise.
"Why do I feel like I missed a big show. Oh my god. It's too...too..." Sun Yanqiu couldn't find an appropriate word to describe the impact this incident had on her.
I never thought that Song Xiaojuan and Chen Jiang would get together.
"Eh? That's not right. Hiss! If you hadn't messed with that tiger before, Baji would have said everything. It would have been natural for something to happen between you and Chen Jiang.
"Oh my god, this is so scary. This is a conspiracy!" Sun Yanqiu was thinking wildly, and suddenly jumped up from the kang, and said her guess in shock. It was exactly right.
"That's right. I only thought of it later." Su Qiuyue agreed with her very much. She was so smart.
"Then, does that mean Song Xiaojuan and Chen Jiang have been in contact for a long time? Oh~ now that I think about it, it was very strange when we were together last time. And those letters of hers, could they be from Chen Jiang again?
Oh my god! It's so scary." The more Sun Yanqiu spoke, the more she felt that she was telling the truth. She was so shocked that she got goosebumps.
"Then I don't want to go to her wedding. I'm so scared. It's too scary, right? I don't think I've ever given her a good look. Will she plot against me too?!" Sun Yanqiu said worriedly.
"Okay, you're the one who said you were scared. No matter how powerful she is, she still couldn't succeed, right? So she's not as scary as you say.
It's possible that you did something wrong, but you're not a fool, so how can you use your brain to do anything?" Su Qiuyue comforted her, and she could also smile at her past self.
"That's right. Look, I guessed everything right. I'm still very smart." Sun Yanqiu was also joking. The two of them were just joking around.
"By the way, where did you get those frozen vegetables? You don't know that when I got home and opened the package, my mother didn't care about me at all. All she could see were those precious vegetables.
I can only say that my best friend specially prepared it for me." Sun Yanqiu said with a smile.
At that time, her mother was so surprised that she didn't care about anything else. She just held her bag as if she was holding her grandson and shouted all over the house.
Then he carefully put the dishes away, looking at them from time to time. Then during the New Year's Eve dinner, in addition to dumplings, their table was filled with dishes.
Her mother plans every day how to eat those "treasures". Sun Yanqiu said to her mother, if you don't know, you will think you are thinking about the food instead of your daughter.
But she was also grateful for the gift Su Qiuyue gave her, which made her parents feel relieved. They always felt sorry for their daughter who had to suffer in the countryside.
Although she had survived the past three years, when she came back during the Chinese New Year, she looked darker and thinner, and her face and hands were much rougher.
They felt bad but had no other choice but to give their daughter more money so that she would not have to work so hard. They were all surprised by what their daughter brought back. With such a rare thing, their daughter should be able to live a decent life.
When she heard that it was her good sister who brought her here specially, she asked about Su Qiuyue's situation in detail.
This made the parents feel more at ease. A girl who could live such a good life must be a strong and clear-headed girl. They were very relieved that their daughter was dating such a girl.
He also told his daughter to get along well with each other and help each other in the future. So when Sun Yanhong came back, she brought a big bag of gifts.
Toffees, malted milk, milk powder, etc. He also brought a small military uniform for his sister.
