Rise of Nongmen

Ye Chen would not change his decision easily, if he didn't let it be the seal of his ancestors, then he would think of other ways.

Taking advantage of going into the town to buy lambs, he inquired about the news and checked the market. As a result, he got very little except for the lambs.

The town's business is very underdeveloped, with only the most basic business elements, which is not difficult to understand.

The war has just ended, and a thousand wastes are waiting for prosperity. The imperial court is busy focusing on agriculture to restore its vitality as soon as possible. Other aspects are naturally neglected, and even if the imperial court manages it, the current economy does not support it. The big places may gradually become prosperous, and the small towns on the edge are obviously Also bad weather.

If the way of doing business is cut off in the short term, we can only make up our minds on food.

It was too slow to get money for farming and raising livestock, and Ye Chen didn't forget that he still owed money to Lucky Mall.Although Lucky Mall was beaten back to its original form, he was not a novice, so he naturally couldn't get the novice benefits, and he still had to charge for the pasture that was supposed to be given at the beginning.

Fortunately, Lucky Mall has a high level of intelligence. When it is new to a place, the rules change accordingly. It is not rigidly followed in the last days, where a certain number of strange beasts need to be hunted to open, but changed to open once a month. The currency is also in line with the reality and changed to silver taels, but the pasture that should be a welfare cannot be purchased with real silver taels.

In this way, no matter how rich Ye Chen is now, he can only pay on credit, and pay off the principal with interest after the pasture grows and sells part of it.

Lucky Mall is very cheating, the recovery price is only half of the selling price, and the monthly interest rate on credit is as high as 50.00%, which is even higher than usury. If it is not necessary, Ye Chen will never do such a loss-making business.

In view of this, he intends to pay off the debt as soon as possible, but even so, considering the high yield of pasture harvested once a month, the remaining fifty sheep cannot be consumed.

Ye Chen naturally set his sights on Luoyan Mountain. Hunting is the fastest way to earn money under the current conditions, but Bai's family doesn't allow it, which is a bit troublesome.

Ye Chen has seen too much blood and blood in the last days, his heart has long been as hard as steel, and he will not be easily touched by others, but he is not the kind of wolf-hearted person.If he encounters the best, he will walk away without saying a word, and will not miss anything, but this family is dominated by him, and everything is considered for him, some things can't be forced, you have to pay attention to methods.

After half a month of careful recuperation, Ye Chen's health has improved a lot, and he is no longer so malnourished. He can't shake the wild boar for the time being, but hunting some pheasants and hares is not a problem. The difficulty is how to enter the mountain openly.

The opportunity will come soon.

"Uncle Chen, the loquats are ripe in the mountains, do you want to go?" Ye Chun shouted outside Ye's courtyard with a basket on his back as soon as the dewdrops were harvested, followed by a group of teenagers.

"Go, wait a moment." Ye Chen replied casually, ignoring Bai's instructions.He was obviously convinced of Bai's family, and he was sure that she would not refute it in public.

As expected, Bai's eyes were worried, and in the end he didn't speak to stop him. Instead, he told him carefully, and called his two older grandsons, Ye Yao and Ye Hui, to follow him, lest one of them be inattentive and make another mishap.

After hearing this, Ye Guang clamored to go, but was suppressed by the Bai family, so he had no choice but to look back at every step, reluctantly going to cut the pasture to feed the lamb.

Ye Chen can be regarded as an old man of the Bai family, a generation older than most of his peers, and his words are quite important. He was ill a while ago, and these days he is busy opening up wasteland, planting grass and buying lambs, so no one bothers him. Now When you are free, the friends will come to you soon.

It was said to be picking loquats, but in fact it was just an excuse. Everyone spent most of their time digging out birds and climbing trees.

Farmers are like this. They can kill people when they are busy, but they are really busy when they are idle.In a few years, or 20 years later, there are many places to go when you are fifteen or sixteen. Now, most of them are idle at home.

"Uncle Chen, you are amazing. If I dare to plant grass, and spend so much money to buy lambs to raise, my mother will definitely beat my ass to death." Ye Chun's eyes are full of admiration, but he is not a star.

"What Chunzi said was, I saw that Uncle Chen had a good idea, and I wanted to raise a few, but my father caught me and ordered fried pork with bamboo shoots. The pain was so painful that I dared not sit down while eating." Speaking of which, Ye Hu subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover his buttocks, which immediately caused a burst of laughter from his friends.

"It's okay. When I grow up, your parents won't stop me. I can't promise to raise a group. It shouldn't be a problem to raise three or five. When the time comes, let the sheep herd. Don't come to me and cry." Ye Chen smiled. road.

Ye Chun and the others are still children, with simple minds, unlike the end times where darkness is everywhere, even a young child cannot be underestimated.

Staying with such a person, it doesn't take a lot of thinking, Ye Chen is in a good mood, and he is not impatient at all.

They say they are idle, but in fact, boys are more idle. Apart from collecting firewood and carrying water regularly, there is not much work to do, but girls can’t be idle. Then wash, one day will pass.

Ye Chen is noncommittal about this, every place has its own rules, if you have the ability to fight, try to change your situation, if you don't have the ability, you can only suffer.

After entering the mountain, Ye Chen saw a lot of people busy in the mountain, most of them were girls, it was hard to see the pigweed at the foot of the mountain, let alone the wild fruit.

This situation continued until halfway up the mountain before getting better, but not much better.

Not to mention hunting, it is difficult to even find wild fruits in such a place. As expected, Ye Chun and the others did not stop, and continued to walk in for a long time until some mouth-watering yellow colors appeared between the branches. start to act.

Wild loquats have a small core, big taste and sour taste, but they are rare snacks right now. Ye Chun and his party of seven almost got into a fight over who picked one more and who picked one less.

Ye Chen didn't get involved, just watched them fight with a smile, feeling deeply moved.

It's nice to be young!

Ye Chun's generation grew up in a peaceful age, and they don't have to suffer from their parents, let alone experience the end times that test human nature. How lucky they are!

"Uncle Chen, what are you lamenting over there? If you don't come here again, all the loquats will be picked off." Ye Chun, as the oldest one besides Ye Chen, is relatively stable. Looking at them with a smile like that, he couldn't help being shocked.

Ye Chen: "It's just a few loquats. You pick one and leave it for me to try it out. I'll go inside."

"Then be careful yourself, don't fall again, I can't stand the second grandma."

"Ah."

Ye Chun was still worried: "Huzi, look at the leopards."

After saying that, he grabbed the pannier and followed Ye Chen.

Ye Yao and Ye Hui also wanted to follow, but Ye Chun stopped him: "You two are still young, I'll just follow."

There was such a loud noise behind him, it was impossible for Ye Chen not to notice it, but he didn't stop him, but asked Ye Chun to keep his footsteps as light as possible.

Here, small prey can already be seen occasionally.

Ye Chen has the memory of his previous life, so he is no stranger to this place. After three turns, he came to a remote place.

"Chunzi, just stand here and don't make any noise." Ye Chen ordered while taking out a slingshot from his back basket.Yes, you read that right, it is the kind of slingshot used by children, and with his slight modifications, it should not be a big problem for hunting pheasants and hares.

Ye Chun's eyes lit up in an instant, let alone whether he could hit the prey, he dared to take a slingshot into the mountains to hunt, he knew only Uncle Chen was alone, at this moment, Ye Chun's eyes were filled with the words "serve" in capital letters Character.

Ye Chen lived up to expectations, Ye Chun couldn't see his movements clearly from the outside, he only heard a few "pops", followed by a flutter of chickens and dogs, when he saw Ye Chen again, he was holding three pheasants upside down. There is a nest of eggs.

Ye Chun hurriedly stepped forward to take it, put it in the basket on the side, and kept walking around Ye Chen: "Uncle Chen, the pheasant is alert, how did you do it?"

"Of course it's your Uncle Chen and I have superb skills." Ye Chen boasted without humility.

Ye Chun really believed it, it couldn't be that Ye Chen was lucky enough to catch a pheasant at random.Instead of believing this, he would rather believe that Uncle Chen is capable.

Things like luck are too illusory, it is better to see the real benefits in front of you, Uncle Chen is capable, maybe he can learn a thing or two, and then he can occasionally play the tooth festival, this taste is very beautiful when you think about it .

"You watch here, and I'll go to the side for a walk." Ye Chen said after putting away a nest of eggs.

"Don't worry, I will definitely watch over it, and I will guarantee that the pheasant will not escape." Ye Chun patted his chest to assure, and finally whispered, "Uncle Chen, don't go further in, there are many snakes in the old forest."

"Okay." Ye Chen emptied Ye Chun's back basket, put it on and walked away, and disappeared after a few strokes.

Ye Chun looked envious, if only he had such skills.But when did Uncle Chen become so powerful, could it be that it was a blessing in disguise, not only did he not break his head when he fell, but instead his head became bright?

Ren Yechun couldn't figure out this problem even though he was thinking about it, so he just went over it by himself, and even led others in the wrong direction, so no one became suspicious.

This place is not deep in the mountains and old forests. Even though it is remote, there are people moving around from time to time. There are not many prey. Ye Chen walked around for a long time, but only met three waves of prey. % hit, after all, it is a slingshot, neither the accuracy nor the strength is enough, counting the three pheasants harvested at the beginning, there are nine in total.

Ye Chen was not very satisfied with the result, but he didn't have a good solution for a while. The place was not good, he didn't even bother to set up a trap, and the income was too low, so he had to go back and find a solution.

Ye Chen stared at the slingshot for a long time, and made up his mind. Seeing that it was getting late, he didn't stay any longer, and went straight to where Ye Chun was with his prey.
