Chapter 346: Chapter 346: A Basket of Copper Coins

Now, Xuexue was selling wild boar at for just ten Copper Coins per jin, which was much cheaper than dostic pork in town, and the villagers were ecstatic. They hurried back ho to get Copper Coins and buy a pound or half to try.

They say wild boar at is much more fragrant than dostic pork, and although their village was close to the mountains, many of them had never tasted wild boar at.

Seeing everyone’s enthusiasm, Big Bull simply started slaughtering the pig in the courtyard for all to see…

Soon, a wild boar was cut into more than a dozen large pieces and laid out on an old table. Those who had helped carry the wild boar back to the village each got a few pounds of at, and the rest was then sold to other villagers.

Mo Xiaoqiang and his brothers, each holding several pounds of at, were overjoyed.

“Little brother, you see, it’s a good thing I stopped you from doing sothing foolish earlier, or Big Bull wouldn’t have given us so much at.”

“Hehehe…! Yeah, Big Brother, between the two of us, we have five or six pounds of at, right? We can have a feast tonight,” Mo Daoyan said, laughing so hard that his teeth were showing, his eyes were not.

As if he had forgotten the unpleasantness from before, he appeared very excited on the surface, but inside he thought scornfully, Jeez, Big Brother is really simple, satisfied with just a bit of pork. He envied the Li Family’s yard full of wild boar at to death just now, and tonight, after they go ho and finish these few pounds of at, tomorrow while Xuexue and Big Bull are away, he’ll persuade his mother to co over and take so. Madam Xie has always been afraid of Old Lady Mo and certainly wouldn’t dare refuse. With this plan firmly in mind, Mo Daoyan and Mo Xiaoqiang, holding a few pounds of at each, walked away happily.

Because it was sold cheaply, at half the town’s price for wild boar at, even those villagers who normally hesitated to treat themselves couldn’t resist coming to get half a pound or a pound to try.

Selling quickly, the wild boar was almost sold out in no ti, leaving about forty pounds. Xuexue called a halt, as so needed to be saved for their own family, and later, ten or eight pounds had to be sent to the village head. After all, it wouldn’t look good not to share a little after bringing back so much wild boar.

“Mother, keep these Copper Coins safe,” Xuexue said as she handed Madam Xie a basket full of Copper Coins.

Aunt Li, who had been watching the commotion, peeked into the basket of Copper Coins, then shook her head, smacking her lips: “Tsk, tsk, tsk! Look at you, working yourself to death and you haven’t earned many Copper Coins; is it even worth it?”

Xuexue replied with a smile, “Making the villagers happy is worth it, and besides, we’ll be eating tonight too, won’t we?”

“You just keep being the good person, but careful, good deeds often go unrewarded,” Aunt Li said, and with a swing of her hips, she headed back to her house.

Madam Xie, looking at the big basket of Copper Coins, was very happy. She grabbed a handful, then let it go, letting the coins clang loudly as they fell back into the basket, and asked with a cheerful face, “Aiyo wei! Xuexue, look at this big basket of Copper Coins, how much do you think there is?”

Although the Copper Coins were nurous, amounting to almost a basket, in reality, when added up, they didn’t make up several taels of Silver. Think about it, a thousand Copper Coins added up to just one tael of Silver, so a basket of Copper Coins was only worth a few taels of Silver.

“Who knows, Mother, you can count them when you have ti.” Not wanting to dampen Madam Xie’s spirits, Xuexue didn’t tell the whole truth.

“Right, right, you and Big Bull have been busy; surely you also don’t know how much there is. Okay, when I have ti, I’ll count them,” Madam Xie said as she hefted the basket and headed back to the room to hide it and count it later when she had ti.

“You’re really going to count it?” Xuexue asked, looking at Madam Xie’s retreating figure.

“Count? Why wouldn’t I count? It’s always good to have a clear idea of exactly how much Silver one has,” Madam Xie’s voice echoed faintly from inside the house.

“Counting Copper Coins, isn’t that tiring?”
