C8 Find a Way to Earn Money

"If you can help me in the future, help me out." Chiang Beizhan said lightly. He thought Ye Ziqing would definitely find a way to go to school elsewhere. But tuition and living expenses were a big problem for her. She had yielded under the pressure of her family. As for whether she was studying in this town or trying to find a way to go to the school that she wanted to go, he was looking forward to what she would do next.

"I know, such an excellent girl. It's worth our help." Lin Hong nodded. Since the boss had expressed his stance, it meant that Ye Ziqing held a certain weight in Chiang Beizhan's heart. Otherwise, he would not casually say words of help to outsiders.

More than an hour later, Ye Ziqing arrived at Pine Forest Mountain. The Pine Forest Mountain was filled with pine trees of all sizes. There were quite a number of pine needles that fell to the ground. In addition, the living standards of the people had improved a lot over the past few years, and White Water Town was also a famous coal capital. There were a few small wood factories here, and there were a lot of wood shavings. The owner of the furniture factory sold the wood shavings at an extremely low price to the citizens to use as fuel for the fire. There were very few people who came here to dig for pine needle. There was already a thick layer of pine needle on the ground.

Ye Ziqing quickly filled up the basket. After that, she dug out a large pile and placed it in a hidden place. Then, she took a firewood knife and went to chop wood. There was no coal stove in the Wide Open Space. It was just that there was a coal stove inside. With her current financial resources, she could not afford coal at all. If she wanted to start a fire to boil water and cook things inside, she could only cut some firewood and put it in. Furthermore, if she wanted to plant vegetables inside, she had to have the skewer. She had to take advantage of this opportunity to chop some firewood and skewer and place them here. She would come and collect them after those soldiers left.

Ye Ziqing did not know why she could feel that she was being watched even though she did not see anyone. Furthermore, her sense of direction was very clear. She wondered if Chiang Beizhan and Lin Hong had entered the mountain again. She did not know what they had come to the mountain for. She did not dare to put the things into her space. She praised her foresight. On the way here, she took out the knife and the bag that she had put in the space in the morning and put them in a basket.

Her feeling was right. There were two people watching her from afar. Fortunately, her five senses were sensitive after her rebirth and she was careful. She did not put the thing into the Wide Open Space. Otherwise, those two people would definitely treat her as a monster.

She cut down all the wood that was as thick as a forearm. If she used them as firewood, they would be very resistant to fire. They could also be used to make skewer, but relatively speaking, they were relatively harder. It was more difficult to cut. Very soon, her hands turned red. In order to not grind out blisters, she had no choice but to stop and rest. At the same time, she walked around to see if there were any medicinal herbs.

She was penniless now. She wanted to leave White Water Town and get rid of that suffocating home. She had to earn a certain amount of money. Otherwise, she wouldn't even have to pay for the journey, and she wouldn't be able to leave even if she wanted to. If she wanted to earn money, she could only rely on this mountain for the time being.

Even though the Wide Open Space had some gold, silver, and jewelry, she still hadn't seen the real thing. Even if she really had jewelry, she was not prepared to take it out to sell. Right now, she did not have any sales channels, and it would leave behind a huge hidden danger.

There were no high-level herbs in the mountain, although Ye Ziqing was mentally prepared. After searching for a long time, she only saw the Golden Silver Flower, Yellow Ginger, isatis root, Lily. These few medicinal herbs, even the gastrodia elata was not found. She was still a little disappointed in her heart.

Chiang Beizhan and Lin Hong hid in the grass and quietly observed her. They saw that she had cut down quite a number of small trees and then lowered her head to look for something in the grass. In the end, the result was not good. Her small face was full of disappointment.

"Third Elder Brother, how do you think she can carry back so many skewers she cut? Her family is too cruel. They actually let a little girl do such a thing." Lin Hong saw that she was chopping skewer for her family.

"It looks like she doesn't want to carry it back. Maybe she has other uses." Chiang Beizhan saw that she was obviously going to put the things she cut into the mountains, which meant that this was not her mission. At least it was not her mission today.

"What exactly is she looking for? She shook her head and nodded." Lin Hong did not understand what Ye Ziqing wanted to do.

" Maybe she was looking for something that could be sold for money. She needs school fees and living expenses to go to school. She must settle these during the summer vacation. Otherwise, she can only study in No.7 Middle School and continue to be tortured by that family. " Chiang Beizhan said coldly.

"The herbs that are slightly worth money in this mountain are those. But what can she do if she picks them back? Can her vicious stepmother and lousy dad make her sell the herbs for money?"

"Let's take a look first." Chiang Beizhan also did not know what she would do, but it seemed that she had set her sights on the herbs.

At noon, Ye Ziqing sat under a big tree and took out the mantou from her school bag. She took it out and ate it. Then she went to the well by the mountain stream and drank some spring water with her hands. That was lunch.

Although she only ate half full, she did not find anything to feed her hunger. She could only give up. She placed the basket of pine needles by the side of the small path, then took the bamboo rake and walked towards the back of the mountain. She wanted to see if there were mushrooms to pick. Although there were not many mushrooms at this time of the year, but if she was lucky, she might be able to pick some back.

Most of the mushrooms growing under the pine trees were pine tree mushrooms. They would also grow some green bean mushrooms and lime mushroom. Fresh mushrooms were not delicious and would usually be used to dry the mushrooms.

Pine Forest Mountain was not big. Not long after, Ye Ziqing followed the small path to the other side of the mountain. In those places suitable for mushrooms to grow, she used the bamboo rake to carefully remove the weeds under the trees and carefully search for mushrooms.

After searching for more than half an hour, she finally found a bunch of pine tree mushrooms. At this time, she did not feel like she was being monitored, so she took out a shovel from the spatial zone. She dug the mushroom and the soil underneath into the Wide Open Space, and planted it on the black soil at the foot of the mountain.

Since she had gained something, it meant that it was still mushrooms at this time of the year. Ye Ziqing worked even harder. According to the knowledge she learned from her previous life, she used a bamboo rake to alert the snake at a suitable place for the mushrooms to grow. At the same time, she opened her eyes and looked carefully.

When the sun set in the west, she not only uprooted a few pine tree mushrooms and a small amount of green bean mushrooms, she also planted them in the Wide Open Space. She also plucked a lot of lime mushroom (because the lime mushroom was not delicious, so she did not plant them in the space). She planned to dry these mushrooms under the sun and stir-fry them in the winter.

The most important thing was that she saw a lot of isatis root, lily, and the pine trees that were crushed when it snowed last winter. She planned to come back tomorrow to dig for isatis root and lily. Those dead pine trees could also be put into Wide Open Space to be used as firewood. Seeing that it was getting late, she picked up some dried branches and put them into the spatial zone before returning to her residence.

When she returned home, without exception, she did not make it for dinner. There was only half a bowl of rice left in the pot. Ye Ziqing, under Ye Zhiyong and Zhang Aiqin's fierce stare, scooped some chopped chili from the jar and mixed it with rice to eat.

"Ye Ziqing, where did you go? You only came back at this time." Ye Zhiyong saw her put down the bowl and was about to go upstairs, so he asked with a straight face.
