The pastoral life of the reborn farmer

Chapter 22

Shen Ling wanted to settle the matter of buying the land a few years ago. Li Zheng received the thank you gift and took the commission. Naturally, he had to be more positive. As soon as Shen Ling said the amount of land, Li Zheng brought it with him almost the same day. He sent someone to measure the wasteland, and gave Shen Ling the mantissa, took an integer, and counted it as seven acres of land. In fact, it should be more than seven acres of land. One acre of land is calculated at 2 taels of silver, and Shen Ling spent a total of 14 taels of silver before going to the government to sign and retrieve the title deed.

It took another one or two dollars to find someone to erect an earthen wall outside this land, and Shen Ling went to buy ducks. The chickens in the countryside can fly when they grow up, and most of them sleep in the trees. This is the first time Shen Ling has met. At that time, the whole person was stunned. This was completely different from what he had imagined. If it was kept in the yard and the wings were not clipped, it was estimated that the interception by the earth wall would be of little significance. If he is willing to do this business, at least he will be ready to buy chickens to raise when he frees up his manpower to take care of it. Forget it now!

And although the ducks can barely fly, they can't fly very high, and the earth wall can be stopped even if there is a pond in the yard, and there is a pond in the yard, so the ducks don't want to fly out too much. The weeds, bugs and ponds in the field are enough for these ducks to grow up on their own.

Shen Ling doesn't have much money in his hand now. He can't spend so much money to clean the yard and buy fruit tree seedlings. He can't afford to hire someone to take care of it. Let them grow naturally.

At the same time, the construction of Shen Ling's new house has also started, which is nearly half an mu of land. In fact, this is not a homestead but a wasteland. Shen Ling asked someone to clean up the weeds and stones on it, and then asked The master mason started to build Shen Ling's ideal yard. Shen Ling thought that it must be divided into two parts, the front house and the back house, but now there is not much money in hand, Shen Ling only plans to build the courtyard wall and the back house , the front is empty for cooking, and then make plans in the future.

After such a pass, Shen Ling's money was spent in seventy-eighty-eighty, and even Han Shi, the obedient child, couldn't help but look at him with a hesitant expression, and his face was full of worry. The family has only three acres of dry land to grow, and the Spring Festival has passed, so I can't sell the Spring Festival couplets. Han Shi was worried.

But Shen Ling didn't think about it that much. From time to time, he took time to go for a walk in the mountains, and also picked a lot of herbs to come back to identify and study, until one day Shen Ling suddenly held a wild ginseng in front of Han Shi.

"Where did you come from?!" Han Shi was stunned. Although he said that they are very close to the mountain, and there are indeed wild ginseng on the mountain, but most of the time, they are just small seedlings, and they will be caught before they grow up. After picking it up, even small seedlings are rare now. Where has Han Shi seen such a big wild ginseng.

"I discovered it by accident on the mountain!" Shen Ling said as a matter of course, he would not tell Han Shi that he accidentally discovered that Lingquan has the function of promoting plant growth one day, so he has been running up the mountain recently. See if you can find some precious plants suitable for spawning.

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't be spending money so recklessly. After all, it would be embarrassing if the money was spent and his business hadn't been done yet. Hurry up and come to me for treatment, you must be diligent and thrifty and eat bran and veggies at that time, which is absolutely unwilling for Shen Ling.

Han Shi took the wild ginseng with wide eyes, looked up at Shen Ling again, and looked down at the wild ginseng, feeling that he seemed to be worrying for nothing before.

Shen Ling took Han Shi out and went to the city to sell wild ginseng. Shen Ling poured a little too much into the spiritual spring, but it was the most common wild ginseng variety, and it was as thick as a white radish. , It seems that the age is not low, and it sold for one hundred taels of silver. This is because it is only wild ginseng, not a precious variety.

After selling the mountain ginseng, Shen Ling walked on the street and couldn't help but grit his teeth silently. He didn't know the goods. This was poured out of the spiritual spring. So many spiritual springs were enough for him to treat himself two or three times. Who knows this Whether a wild ginseng has been mutated by him, maybe it is not impossible for a patient to be cured immediately! It was only sold for one hundred taels of silver. In terms of value, it is much more precious than some thousand-year-old ginseng. Can thousand-year-old ginseng make people feel better? Maybe his ginseng will do.

Shen Ling walked down the street with a dark face, Han Shi secretly glanced at Shen Ling's expression, Shen Ling's expression was too obvious, and he didn't hide it at all, Han Shi could still see it, and waited for Shen Ling to pull him in. After eating in a restaurant, Han Shi finally couldn't help but say: "Don't do this, that wild ginseng can be sold for one hundred taels of silver, which is more than a family's entire savings!"

At least Han Shi had never seen so much silver before.

Shen Ling was immersed in the fact that wild ginseng must be cheap, and the store owner didn't know the goods. He didn't think much about it, shook his head and said, "You don't know, that wild ginseng is different, even thousand-year-old ginseng is not as good as it is. Putting it on it, the flesh and bones of the living dead are exaggerated, but it is probably no problem to pull the life of the dying person out of the palace of the king of hell. Can you not just see it as wild ginseng! Don't think about it, ordinary ginseng Can it grow that big? It's special, but it's precious." Shen Ling couldn't help but complain.

There were people coming and going in the restaurant, but Han Shi and Shen Ling didn't find a private room. The conversation between the two almost completely fell into the ears of the people eating at the table next to them. Not far away, a few men dressed as strong men seemed to be listening. When it came to the conversation between the two, there was silence at the wine table, and they just perked up their ears and listened.

Shen Ling realized something was wrong, subconsciously turned his head and looked around, several strong men chatted quickly again, laughing like he didn't hear anything, Shen Ling still didn't let go of his vigilance, He just said that his wild ginseng can save people's lives, but it can be explained that the countrymen in coarse clothes have never seen the world, so they are full of big words, but Han Shi really opened his mouth to tell the number of silver coins on them. Now, as the so-called wealth is not revealed, if it is heard and attracts peeps, it will not be very good. Shen Ling thinks that he should go to the blacksmith shop and buy a few weapons before leaving. He is not afraid of 10,000 yuan. Just in case, after all, out of the city, they still have nearly a hundred miles to go. If it wasn't for the sake of selling ginseng more expensively, and they were afraid that the villagers would know about it and attract prying eyes, they wouldn't have run like this. Far away, to sell wild ginseng in this unfamiliar place.

Shen Ling raised her vigilance, and didn't speak any more, pulling Han Shi's head to eat.

After Shen Ling and Han Shi left, a strong man at the table next to the table also followed the checkout and left. Not far away, two men in golden robes put down their chopsticks, and one of them said to the person opposite, "Why don't we go and see what kind of wild ginseng it is. ?"

"Just listen to people! It's really weird, that kind of countryman is amazing when he sees a century-old ginseng, maybe it's how big it is!"

"Just think I'm curious! Anyway, you and I are too. I have never seen a mountain ginseng worth a hundred taels, the most expensive thing is only a few dozen taels, it's good to buy it back as a rare thing to nourish my mother, there's no harm in it anyway." The man in the robe said warmly.

The person opposite frowned, as if thinking of something, sighed, and said, "Okay!" Anyway, I ate all the good ginseng, and I didn't get any results. It's better to try this wild ginseng. Even if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter, just buy some supplements.

There are not many pharmacies in the city, and there are not many close to here. The man in brocade thought silently.

On the other hand, Shen Ling and Han Shi went out and looked for a place to order fruit saplings. After all, they really sold very few of these things, and they could only buy them from a distance. Shen Ling also stopped by the blacksmith shop to make weapons. In his last life, he was best at using a short military knife. It was as long as half an arm and was extremely sharp. It used the arm to use the fingers, and it was convenient to use force. Zombies can be cut off with a knife, and he has always cherished them.

There was no prohibition of weapons in this dynasty, so Shen Ling asked the blacksmith to make a similar knife, saying that he would come and get it in two days. In the face of danger, however, out of nostalgia for the weapon he loved in his previous life, Shen Ling still managed to use good materials with good iron to fight for an excellent knife, which cost a lot of money.

The two walked around the city for two more days. Shen Ling accidentally found some herbal seeds in a seed shop. Although there were no ginseng or the like, there were some relatively precious ones that were worth pouring on them. Herb seeds from the spring.

But Shen Ling can't always make a living by selling herbs. After all, selling once is luck, selling twice is luck, and selling more times, in case someone finds out, if the other party is more subtle, maybe he will notice something wrong That's right, so this kind of thing must be controlled the number of times, Shen Ling bought some other seeds and prepared to go back to see all kinds of things. Moreover, Shen Ling also found a handicraft workshop that made pottery pots, and went to visit a few times, but he didn't say what his purpose was, which made the other party very entangled. Although the other party was very puzzled, he was forced to get acquainted with Shen Ling.

After walking around the city for a few days, Shen Ling and Han Shi were ready to go back. Shen Ling took the knives and went home with two large carts of different fruit seedlings and some miscellaneous things.

On the other side, two men in golden robes also found the wild ginseng sold by Shen Ling, and it took nearly two hundred taels of silver to get the ginseng. The two couldn't help shaking their heads secretly, feeling that it was too expensive. The mountain ginseng has only doubled after passing it over and over again. But for the two of them, two hundred taels is not too painful. Although they are still a little distressed, but because of their poor mother, they feel that it is nothing. They are about to rush to the border to take office, and they cannot perform filial piety in front of the bed. You can only buy something to find someone to take back to show your filial piety, but there are no precious things at home, and only some rare things are worth giving away.
