Chapter 9: Three generations of grandparents and grandchildren discuss at night, and one goes into the mountains to look for fruit trees

"Oh! Buying food requires money!" said the uncle helplessly.

"Uncle, you don't need to worry about the money. I'll pay for it. And when you buy food, tell others that it's for me."

"Why do you say that?"

As soon as the uncle finished speaking, Li Laogen kicked him and said, "Don't say that. When the grain is harvested, where is the grain you bought?"

"Oh! I see! But plus one, this will cost a lot of money!"

"I know. Let me give you two hundred first. You can keep it and we'll talk about it when you've used it up."

In fact, food is very cheap in rural areas now, not only in rural areas, but also in cities!

One pound of Bayi flour is 1.42 cents, one pound of Fuqiang flour is 1.65 cents, brown rice, also known as 92 rice, is 1.55 cents, and polished rice is only 1.84 cents.

Coarse grains, such as cornmeal, are only seven cents a pound, and cornmeal ground together with corn cobs is only five cents a pound.

When you collect grain in the countryside, you just buy wheat and corn, which are cheaper. You can collect a lot with two hundred yuan.

"Where did you get so much money? Did you take it from home?"

It’s no wonder that the uncle would think this way. Two hundred yuan is not a small amount of money. Even if Li Aimin and Ye Xin love Li Jiayi very much, they can’t give him so much money.

If it wasn't given to him, then there is only one possibility, that is, he took it himself.

"Uncle, don't worry, I didn't take any money from home. This money is saved by myself. My parents know about it."

"Huh! How come you, a little kid, saved so much money?" The uncle felt incredible.

You have to know that he is over 30 years old, and all the money in the family is only 30 or 40 yuan.

It's normal, the family needs expenses! This big family can't save any money in a year.

But Li Jiayi is different! He doesn't need to worry about anything, and he saves every penny he has.

Anyway, he is also a time traveler, so it is very easy for him to make some money. Although he doesn’t make much, he can always make some.

But even so, after all these years, I have only saved less than 300 yuan, which is a shame for time travelers.

"Get out of the way. If you can't speak, don't talk. Can't my eldest grandson save money?" Li Laogen kicked Li Aiguo again.

Then Li Jiayi opened his schoolbag and took out two hundred yuan from it, actually he took it out from the space.

"Grandpa, uncle, you can keep this money first."

"By the way, is there a place to hide these grains?" Li Jiayi asked.

"I really don't have that. This is not just 100 or 200 kilograms. There is really no place to store so much food."

"We can dig a cellar and dry the food there when the time comes. It will be no problem storing the food there," said Li Jiayi.

"This is fine. And we can dig right next to your grandfather. The terrain here is high, so we don't need to worry even if it rains."

Not only do we not have to worry about rain, we also don't have to worry about water seepage. The foundation of my grandfather's house is higher than the roofs of other houses in the village.

In theory, Li Jiayi has enough space and doesn't need to worry about food at all.

But one thing is that he is too young now, and there is no way to explain why he could take out so much food at once.

If it was in the city, it would be fine, you could say you bought it at the pigeon market, but this is the countryside!
Apart from anything else, there is no way to explain how it was transported here.

Li Jiayi didn't need to worry about anything after that. He didn't know what his uncle and grandfather discussed, but that night, his uncle came to his grandfather's place and started digging a cellar.

Moreover, he was alone, not even his eldest cousin, probably because he didn't want more people to know. The cellar was located under the firewood pile on the south side of the kitchen.

While his uncle was digging the cellar, Li Jiayi was sleeping between his grandfather and grandmother, and his grandmother was fanning him.

Although the temperature in the mountains is a few degrees lower than in the city, it is still hot, just not as uncomfortable.

Sleeping with his grandparents, he had no way of entering the space. Fortunately, even if he didn't enter the space, he could still deal with things in the space.

It’s just that I can’t stay in the space to sleep, which is not a big deal. I’ve been living like this for more than ten years and I’m almost used to it.

Silent all night.

He got up early in the morning, warmed up, and then started doing sit-ups, push-ups, frog jumps and running.

Although it is said that with the spiritual spring, my body will gradually become stronger even without exercising, but I have become accustomed to it. I always feel like something is missing if I don’t do it again.

But it's not without effect! Although he is only ten years old, his strength is definitely not less than those fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys.

As for fighting, there is no need to mention it. He is as agile as a monkey and very strong.

Two or three boys of fifteen or sixteen may not be able to deal with him, and they may very likely be beaten by him.

There is no other way, because he has to demand himself to do things without a golden finger. If he wants to survive in this era, he must be cruel to himself.

After exercising, breakfast is ready: a corn pancake, stir-fried vegetables, and scrambled eggs with peppers.

If he hadn't come, I guess my grandparents wouldn't have been willing to eat eggs because they had to take them to the commune to exchange for oil and salt. The oil was not for eating but kerosene, which was used for lighting.

After finishing his meal, Li Jiayi put his school bag and water bottle on his left and right and said, "Grandma, I'm going out to play for a while."

"Okay, go ahead! Don't run too far, and come back early for lunch."

"understood."

After coming out of the yard, Li Jiayi did not walk towards the village, but turned his head to look at the Qipan Mountain and ran straight into the mountain.

As for the dangers in the mountains, there is no need to worry about that. Not to mention that there are no large animals outside, even if there are, he still has space!

Once he gets into the space, no matter how dangerous it is, it has nothing to do with him.

Li Jiayi went into the mountains not to hunt, but to look for fruit trees. There were many fruit trees in the mountains.

The orchard in his space is now bare, without even a single fruit tree.

As soon as he entered the mountain, Li Jiayi saw a jujube tree, and it was a very big one. He had no intention of taking over this jujube tree.

Of course, he couldn't hit it either, because the date tree was connected to the ground and could not be put into the space unless it was dug out.

What he wanted were the small jujube trees that had just grown to a few dozen centimeters high around the jujube tree. These were the jujubes that ripened and fell to the ground, and then sprouted.

He pulled them out with just a light pull, and he didn't do much more. He picked four and left.

With just one thought, four jujube trees were planted in the orchard in the space.

If you were to ask what fruit trees are the most common on the mountains surrounding the imperial capital, they would definitely be persimmon trees. Look, I saw one just a few steps into the sky.

Similarly, there are still small trees, but I only got two because it’s not good to eat too much of this thing.

Besides, these fruits are planted in space and can bear fruit all the time. I don’t know how many fruits these two persimmon trees can produce in a year if they are planted outside.

 PS: Love is always there, can you give me a monthly ticket? Thank you!
