It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 30 Mrs. Yazhai Mission

Chapter 30

Cheng Dalei completely collapsed, well, maybe the liberal arts house and the science house are the same creature, we don't need women.

"The big boss, it's not good, Xiaoling is poisoned!"

At this moment, Xu Shenji hurried over. Cheng Dalei was also taken aback and said, "Take me to see it."

While walking, Cheng Dalei asked, "How did she get into trouble, how did she get poisoned?"

"She was picking mushrooms in the back mountain, and when she saw the red fruit growing on the ground, she ate one. As a result, her mouth became hot and her whole body was sweating... Hey, this silly girl is just greedy." Xu Shenji was at a loss.

Walking to Xu Linger's room, Huang Sanyuan was guarding her and was very anxious. Cheng Dalei saw Xu Linger lying on the bed, her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes kept crying.

"Master, I... I'm afraid I can't do it..."

"Linger, don't be afraid, I will definitely find a way to cure you."

That being said, Cheng Dalei knows nothing about medical skills, and no one in the entire cottage understands medical skills. Now I don't even know what kind of poison is in Xu Linger.

"What poisonous fruit did she eat?"

"That's it, this silly girl, silly girl..." Xu Shenji held the vegetable basket: "How can you eat anything in the mountains!"

Cheng Dalei took the vegetable basket and saw some wild vegetables, mushrooms, and... peppers in it.

"She was poisoned by eating this thing?" Cheng Dalei held up a chili pepper.

"Yeah, extremely poisonous!" Xu Shenji said.

Cheng Dalei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He looked at Xu Shenji, Huang Sanyuan, and then at Xu Linger on the kang. Suddenly my heart moved, and I asked, "Don't you all know what this is?"

The three shook their heads at the same time, and Xu Shenji said, "Does the boss know this poison?"

"Where is this poison, this is called pepper, it is a vegetable, and it can also be regarded as a condiment."

"Kelinger looks like this now?"

"It's just too spicy, she was frightened again, just drink more water."

Cheng Dalei said indifferently, and suddenly, a flash of lightning struck his mind, causing his limbs to tremble.

Xu Linger, Xu Shenji had never seen chili peppers, Cheng Dalei didn't find it strange, after all, the two of them didn't know much. But Huang Sanyuan used to be the housekeeper of Han Huzhen, which is a bit strange. Does that mean...the Empire has no chili peppers at all.

When did chili peppers come into China in history, the late Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty... Cheng Dalei held his head and thought, but his lack of historical knowledge could not tell him the exact time, he only knew that it was a very late era. Before that, Huaxia had no chili peppers at all, and people used ginger, mustard, dogwood to season it.

In today's world, the history is a bit chaotic. Cheng Dalei didn't know which time period in history the empire could correspond to.

The system rewarded him with an acre of ripe peppers, but he didn't take it to heart, and he wasn't even interested in finding it. But if there were no chili peppers in this world at all, the meaning of this acre of chili peppers would be completely different.

You know, in Cheng Dalei's previous life, chili peppers swept the country, and too many people didn't like it. And in this world, only one masters the chili by oneself. There is a saying that it is good... Things are vaguely precious.

Cheng Dalei was excited, and quickly ran to Su Ying's room with a chili pepper, he asked to prove this.

"Do you know what this is?"

Su Ying frowned: "Shan Guo?"

Cheng Dalei's heart was pounding, even Su Ying had never seen chili peppers. It was almost confirmed that there was no chili crop in this world. Remember that in history, pepper was introduced very late, but it swept the country in a very short time. And because of the system reward, let yourself have this crop thousands of years in advance, and it is exclusive.

Exclusive means monopoly, monopoly means wealth.

Cheng Dalei felt faintly in his heart that chili peppers might become the capital to mine the first pot of gold.

"Do you think this can be sold for a good price if you sell it?" Cheng Dalei asked Su Ying, wanting to refer to the other party's opinion.

"What taste, sweet?"

"No, it's spicy."

"I haven't eaten it, so I don't know."

"Then I can leave it for you to have a taste, and we can cooperate for a long time in the future." In fact, some powerful cottages have connections with the city's commercial firms. Cheng Dalei felt that he could develop Su Ying. After all, she is the daughter of the cosmopolitan commercial firm. .

Thinking of this, Cheng Dalei suddenly asked: "By the way, you have been robbed for so many days, why is no one here to redeem you? Don't you want anyone else?"

Su Ying, who had always been calm, changed her face greatly after hearing this sentence, her eyes were full of resentment and helplessness.

At this time, Cheng Dalei said with affection: "Don't worry, even if the whole world betrays you, I will betray the whole world with you."

Before Su Ying could react, Cheng Dalei had already left the room quickly, and he had to ask Xu Linger where the peppers were picked.

Xu Linger had a false alarm, and the entire cottage that she killed was worried, and she was a little embarrassed when she saw Cheng Dalei again.

She brought Cheng Dalei, Xu Shenji, and Huang Sanyuan to a hillside outside the cottage. Cheng Dalei saw that there were ripe peppers growing here, with red and ripe fruits hanging on them.

The yield of peppers per mu is far more than that of wheat and soybeans, that is, there are several thousand kilograms of peppers in this mu. According to the principle that what is more expensive is more expensive, a pound of pepper can be exchanged for more than ten pounds of food.

This is more affordable than any crops grown in cottages.

Moreover, the maturity period of peppers is short, and it can be matured in two or three months. The ten acres of land in the cottage are planted with peppers, and tens of thousands of catties can be harvested before winter. It will be an astronomical figure to replace it with food.

Cheng Dalei got excited, patted Xu Shenji on the shoulder and said, "Master, remove all these peppers, we will plant peppers this year."

"Master, you're not kidding, we want to plant poison, what will we eat in winter?"

Cheng Dalei was speechless, and he really couldn't communicate with such a person. He only gave Cheng Dalei a heavy slap on the shoulder: "Work, this is an order."

...

The world is slow, without advanced productivity, everything needs to be done manually. And the cottage is full of calculations, and there are only six people.

Six people picked the peppers, then pulled them back to the cottage to dry them, and then they had to dig out the seeds inside and keep them for planting.

As time passed, several people in the cottage were very busy, but even so, the progress of the work was still very slow.

However, no matter how slow it was, Cheng Dalei didn't let Su Ying join in, and he managed to accumulate some favorability points, but he didn't want to be destroyed.

"Is Shaoyu on duty at the foot of the mountain today?"

"Well, it will be my turn tomorrow." Qin Man said.

Peppers need to be planted, but the work of the cottage cannot be lost, so Cheng Dalei arranged for himself, Qin Man, and Lin Shaoyu to take turns on duty at the foot of the mountain, and his task still has to be done.

"Master, let me rob tomorrow too. You can't just do the hard work."

"Shut up!" Cheng Dalei scolded him: "Don't think I can't see that you don't want to pick peppers."

At this moment, Lin Shaoyu slowly came in from outside. Cheng Dalei hurriedly asked, "How is it, did you gain anything today?"

For a long time, no one passed by under the mountain, and Cheng Dalei's mission progress was still 1|10.

"It's a gain." A little girl flashed behind Lin Shaoyu: "She's here to find Miss Su's family."
