C14 Collect Silver
The two of them ignored Shen Qing. She picked up a new piece of firewood and poked it into the earth stove to vent her dissatisfaction of being discriminated against.
After a while, Shen Qing also felt that the atmosphere was too uncomfortable, moreover, she was still thinking about how to earn money for their meals.
Seeing that the soup was almost ready, he turned around and called out to them:
"Hey, you guys …" "Hmm …" Young masters, the soup's ready, you can come over and drink it. "
After thinking for a while, he said, "You guys can treat me like a boy, but I don't mind. Initially, I also felt that I wasn't like a girl. "If anyone bullies you in the future, tell me and I'll beat them back in your place!"
"As for you, I think it's better not to. Let's eat first. I've been hungry for a whole day. "
Mo Huan looked at Shen Qing. She was clearly a young girl, but she had the appearance of a man from the martial arts world. It was funny and funny.
"Elder sister …" Rock pulled his sister over and said, "We only have two bowls …"
Shen Qing was stunned for a moment. That's right, it seemed that it was impossible for the four of them to drink the soup at the same time.
"Erm … Young Masters, you two should try my Dragon and Phoenix Soup first. Shitou and I will go eat fish first."
As he spoke, he scooped out two bowls of soup and passed them to Mo Huan and his sister.
Mo Huan and Mo Huan looked at this broken bowl and frowned. The most wrong thing to do today was to come to this house to eat for no reason.
"Why don't you two eat this?" Zhao Xuanzhi stared at Shen Qing vigilantly as he asked.
Looking at their expressions, Shen Qing said awkwardly:
"This... The bowls are clean, you can eat without worry. I'll eat with the stone later. Home... "There are only these two bowls in the house …"
The more Shen Qing spoke, the softer her voice became. Even she herself felt very embarrassed. Ever since she was young, no matter how poor she was, life had always been better than now.
Mo Huan was so hungry that his chest was sticking to his back. He picked up the bowl and took a big gulp of soup.
"The taste is really good!"
He took the chopsticks from the stone and glanced at them. He did not care if the chopsticks were broken or not, he picked up the meat and started to gobble it down.
Zhao Xuanzhi also picked up his bowl of food and started to eat as he watched Mo Huan eat happily.
From his expression, it was hard to tell if he liked it or not.
"Is this sweet and pasta thing that you just put in? What's his name? "
Mo Huan ate his chestnut and felt that the taste was good. He picked up another chestnut and asked Shen Qing before putting it into his mouth.
Shen Qing was already sitting by the fire with Rock by her side, eating grilled fish.
There were two of them altogether. The brother and sister would eat one, and the other would be left to the two gongzis.
"This is called a chestnut. This is the King of Dry Fruits, it has a lot of nutrition, and it can even fill the stomach. " Shen Qing replied as she ate.
"Shed …"
Zhao Xuanzhi looked at the round white chestnuts on his chopsticks and asked Shen Qing.
"Did you find this in the mountains?"
"Yeah, it …" Just as Rock was about to elaborate, Shen Qing pulled at the stone, signaling him not to say anything more.
"I picked it up from the mountains, but other than me, no one else could recognize it. Even if someone did pick it up, they would not know how to eat it."
Shen Qing suddenly realized that this might be a business opportunity, and it would be better to have as few people as possible who knew about it.
Mo Huan and Mo Huan finished their Dragon and Phoenix Soup and saw that their fish rack was located far away from the fire. It could not be roasted, but it could at the same time maintain the temperature.
Although this girl seemed carefree, she was actually quite meticulous.
As the two roasted the fish, they could smell the aroma of cumin mixed with the fish meat.
Now that he had drunk a bowl of soup, he was no longer as hungry, but the fragrance brought out the gluttony in his stomach.
Zhao Xuanzhi squatted in front of Shen Qing and her sister. He cut off half of the stick with his small dagger and stuck it into the knife, eating it slowly.
Mo Huan raised the stick that was already on the fish and started to eat.
"Why is the taste of this fish so different from what I ate in the past?" Mo Huan said as he ate.
"Is it delicious? This is my only ingredient. Remember to give me the silver if it's good. "
Shen Qing had always been thinking about their money for food.
"The exclusive ingredient you're talking about, are you talking about those slender seeds you gave me earlier?"
Although Zhao Xuanzhi was well-mannered, he finished half of the fish in a few bites.
"Grass seeds?"
Shen Qing was stunned.
Was Ziran like a grass seed? It really did look like it.
"That's not grass seeds. If you eat any grass seed that's poisoned in the future, don't leave it to me. "
Shen Qing stealthily glanced at the little fennel that was still drying. It really looked like grass!
The sun had already set. It was late autumn and early winter, and night would soon descend.
Seeing that the two were about to leave after finishing their meal, Shen Qing hurriedly asked:
"I've already eaten. Since the taste is good, where's the agreed silver?"
Zhao Xuanzhi tidied up his bow and quiver and looked at the leftover food. There was still half a pot of soup left in the pot. Since the bowls weren't enough, the brother and sister hadn't had enough yet.
On the open space in the courtyard, the bonfire had almost burned down.
"Your cooking skills are average, and I roasted the fish, but other than my chicken, the other ingredients and main ingredients are all yours. "We will not freeload. Here is a silver ingot, consider it as the money for our meal."
Saying so, he took out a small silver ingot from his sleeve and threw it forward, drawing a beautiful parabola in the air.
Seeing something flying over, Shen Qing stretched out her hands and the silver ingot landed in her hands.
"Shed..." Shen Qing … "Stone..."
Mo Huan followed behind Zhao Xuanzhi and muttered as if he had thought of something.
He then looked at the thatched cottage, and his gaze finally landed on Shen Qing. He said:
"Do you know that men and women don't have the same seats when they are seven? You have to work hard to earn more money to build a house."
Watching the two of them walking east, Shen Qing looked at the silver in her hands and asked Stone,
"Stone, how much is this thing worth?"
Stone looked at the piece of silver and said happily:
"Elder sister, that young master is really generous. He gave away so much money in one go. I've never seen so much silver before."
"Many? How much more? "How much is it worth?"
Shen Qing was confused. How was he going to spend this?
How much can I afford?
How much would it be in renminbi or in dollars?
Hearing her strange question, Stone did not pay any attention to it. He took the silver from Shen Qing's hands, looked at it, and said:
"This should be ten taels. I used to see one in Grandma's closet on her bed. Every day, I'd take it out and look at it. "
Stone thought for a moment, then said, "One tael of silver can be exchanged for one thousand copper coins, which is one thousand gold coins. Father used to make two hundred dollars a month, and a student gave Daddy twenty dollars a month. How much do you think these ten taels are worth? "
Shen Qing calculated in her heart.
Father's monthly salary was two hundred copper coins. In the modern world, a primary school teacher's salary should be around four thousand yuan, and one copper coin was equivalent to twenty yuan.
One tael of silver was twenty thousand taels of silver, then ten taels of silver was two hundred thousand taels of silver.
Impossible, is it because the money here is too strong to buy, or is their dad's salary too little?
Or perhaps, he really met the rich second generation today, the very wealthy second generation.
Ms Wu said she hoped it would be the last possibility.
