Chapter 47: Making a Fortune
This is Lu Qianyao’s voice. Why is he here so quickly? Yang Mumu sped up her hands, put everything into her space, filled the pit, and covered it with leaves from the side. The moment she saw the top of Lu Qianyao’s head, she entered the space.
“Strange, why is my heart becoming more and more flustered, with waves of disappointment? It was like this on the train last time, and it’s like this again today. Could it be that there really is something wrong with my heart?” Lu Qianyao walked over, covering his chest with a not-so-good expression.
He didn’t want to curse himself, so he quickly denied it. “No, no, no, there shouldn’t be any problem with my heart. It must be because I haven’t rested well. I’ve been too tired recently, and I also met a jinx. I must be angry.
Being tired and angry will make my heart uncomfortable. It must be like this.” He looked at this desolate place and found nothing, which made him even more irritable. He turned around and went back. “Forget it, I’ll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some more things and then go back to rest well.
I have to go to work tomorrow and can’t offend the captain again. Sigh, I’ll go back and give the captain some things to ease the relationship, otherwise I’ll definitely be given a hard time tomorrow.” Yang Mumu watched Lu Qianyao sigh and shake his head as he left in the space.
After waiting for a while and seeing no one, she came out of the space. The moment she landed, she saw Lu Qianyao turning back again.
In this critical moment, she entered the space again, perfectly avoiding Lu Qianyao. So, this Lu Qianyao has a psychic sense for these things? He feels flustered and uncomfortable? Then there will be more and more opportunities to feel flustered in the future.
Lu Qianyao circled around the vicinity again, found nothing, and left listlessly: “Sigh, there’s really nothing here, this lousy place!” Yang Mumu didn’t come out of the space this time, manipulating the space to follow behind Lu Qianyao, walking to the intersection where they parted ways to the commune and back to the brigade.
Lu Qianyao went to the town, and Yang Mumu returned to the team, found a deserted place to release the bicycle, and rode back to the team. On the road, Yang Mumu was multitasking, riding the bicycle while checking the box of treasures she had dug up in the space courtyard. A box full of gold and jewelry.
Opening it, Yang Mumu’s eyes were blinded. No wonder Lu Qianyao in the book secretly ran back to dig up the things. Who wouldn’t be envious of this? Only the “Yang Mumu” who was deliberately created by the scumbag to deliver equipment to him would tell Lu Qianyao about these good things.
The box was full of treasures, and there was not a single empty space that wasn’t a valuable item. From the middle, it could be divided into two halves. The side with the was full of large gold bars, the kind that weighed 312.5 grams each. If this were put in the era she was in before, at 618 yuan per gram, one piece would be tens of thousands of yuan.
How many pieces could there be in half of this box? Yang Mumu counted happily, a full 40 pieces, which was yuan. Oh my god, she’s rich, she’s made a fortune! Her mouth was wider than an egg, and she couldn’t close it.
Looking at the other half, it was full of various jewelry necklaces, including jadeite jade bracelets and jade pendants, as well as some antique utensils. Seeing that some of the pearls had been, Yang Mumu felt distressed.
She took them out one by one to look at them, and then smiled again. Fortunately, only a few strings of pearls on the surface had been eaten by worms, and the ones below were still well preserved.
The other things hadn’t been bumped or touched, and no cracks were found in the jade, so they were all intact. These jade treasures were all good things, and the jadeite’s texture was all above glutinous, with ice texture accounting for the majority, which are all valuable things now. It’s no wonder that Lu Qianyao could become the richest man in this era with this box of things. It’s only normal.
Even a pig holding these things and standing on the cusp of the wind could expand to an incredible degree. Now, sorry, these things belong to her. Getting a treasure and changing the plot, Yang Mumu was in a great mood.
She packed up the things and rode her bicycle quickly to the brigade. Her bicycle’s appearance in the brigade caused another round of discussion. Many people in the team looked at Yang Mumu with more enthusiasm, wishing they could stick to her.
They were all muttering in their hearts that this educated youth was not only good-looking but also had money in her pocket. Whoever married her would be rich. Some families with single children began to plan in their hearts.
Yang Mumu was unaware and didn’t care about those gazes. After returning to the team, she went to the large army to buy hoes, sickles, dustpans, shovels, and other tools. Although there were some in the space, they had to be kept in the space for farming.
The ones bought by the team would be kept outside. She didn’t need to go to the fields to work in person as a recorder, but she had to tidy up the private plot. After putting away the things, she saw that the house was still missing some daily necessities such as dustpans, wooden buckets, and brooms, and thought of what Aunt Yang had said to her when she came yesterday.
When she passed by her house, she saw that there seemed to be someone at home. Yang Mumu closed the door and went to Aunt Yang’s house. Just as she walked outside the yard, Aunt Yang was sitting under the eaves making a broom with sorghum stalks. Seeing her coming, she stood up enthusiastically to greet her.
“Mumu, come in quickly. I was just thinking about you, and here you are. We must be destined. Come over and sit down.” “Thank you, Auntie. I was also thinking about Auntie.” After Yang Mumu sat down, she looked at the broom in Aunt Yang’s hand and asked directly, “Auntie, the broom in your hand is so beautifully made.
Do you have any extras? I want to exchange for two.” Aunt Yang was overjoyed. She put down the half-made broom and pulled Yang Mumu into the house, saying, “Oh, you’re right, and you asked the right person. It’s not that Auntie is bragging, but the brooms I make are the best, the most reliable, and the easiest to use in our team.
I guarantee you can use them for several years without any problems. My family has plenty of brooms. Come, I’ll take you to see.”
“If you need anything else, just tell Auntie. If Auntie doesn’t have it here, I guarantee I’ll take you to the homes of the best craftsmen in our team to exchange for it.”
“Then I won’t stand on ceremony with you, Auntie. I also need bamboo baskets for holding vegetables, and I’d like to exchange for a large steamer with several tiers, the kind that can be used for steaming buns and rice.
I also want to exchange for a few wooden buckets and large wooden basins for washing clothes and vegetables, and so on.” Yang Mumu rattled off several items in one breath, and the smile on Aunt Yang’s face grew even wider. “I have them all, I have them all. Look, they’re all in this room. Choose whatever you like.
” Aunt Yang led her to a room specifically for storing tools, which contained many items, all of which were new. Yang Mumu picked through them one by one. In addition to the items she had initially mentioned to Aunt Yang, she also selected other items when she saw them.
She got two carrying baskets, one tightly woven basket with no gaps for carrying items, and one loosely woven basket with large openings for carrying firewood. She also got two bamboo baskets for holding things. Seeing the dried gourds placed on the side, she selected two larger gourds to use as gourd ladles for scooping water. When Aunt Yang saw her taking the gourds, she ran over and handed a bag to Yang Mumu.
“Mumu, I also have dried loofah sponges here. Would you like one? They’re great for scrubbing pots and washing dishes.”
“Yes, Auntie, you reminded me. Give me two.” Yang Mumu took two and also grabbed a pot-scrubbing brush that was on the side. She turned around and picked out two large winnowing fans for drying things and a small winnowing fan. She also got two reed mats woven from reeds. She had taken almost everything, basically gathering all the items she needed from Aunt Yang’s house.
The only thing missing was a large, square wooden cabinet for storing cotton and small boxes. Yang Mumu pointed to the pile of things on the ground and said, “Auntie, that’s all. See how much it comes to?” “Okay, okay, let me see.
” Aunt Yang’s eyes narrowed with happiness. This educated youth was indeed from a well-off family, selecting everything in her place. It had been a long time since she had encountered such a big customer. She was a child worth befriending, so she had to give her a discount.
