Jiang Yue looked around the room and nodded when she saw that it was indeed suitable for storing oil.

“Jiang Yue, quickly take a look.” Xua Yan couldn’t wait any longer, and he quickly opened the can that contained more than ten pounds of oil.

Jiang Yue took a closer look. There were no impurities to be seen with the naked eye, and there was no strange smell. It was quite good.

“That’s good enough,” Jiang Yue said. “You must do the same thing in the future.”

“I know, I know,” Xue Darong and the others nodded.

“Jiang Yue,” the first aunt said with a kind face, “Didn’t your family give us more than 300 catties of vegetable seeds? We plan to extract them for your family first.”

“Thank you.”

“What are you thanking me for? We should thank you!”

When Xue Yan’s family’s oil mill started to extract the oil again, he was really helping Jiang Yue’s family extract oil first.

Naturally, Xua Yan couldn’t handle it alone, so he called his two younger brothers to help.

His two younger brothers were Xue Wu and Xue Quan. The two of them also regretted it because they had sold the vegetable seeds yesterday. However, it was useless to regret it. It was their fault for not listening to their elder brother at that time. They were also afraid that they would not be able to extract the good oil.

After two days of hard work, Jiang Yue’s family reaped what they sowed.

Xue Dafu had already told his brother, Xue Darong, that if he gave the crumbs to the oil mill, he wouldn’t have to pay the workers for the oil. All he had to do was take the oil. However, since Jiang Yue was the one who started the oil mill, Xue Darong and Xua Yan insisted on giving the crumbs to Xue Dafu.

He even secretly told Xue Dafu that the crumbs could fertilize the fields and could be sold to fish farmers for two coins per kilogram.

Even so, Xue Dafu didn’t want the crumbs.

Xue Dafu was a little foolish at times, but he had a good heart. Everyone in the village had to admit that, so they wouldn’t let his elder brother’s family work for nothing. He knew how hard it was to extract oil, and he had seen how hard it was for his elder brother’s family. In the end, Xue Darong and Xua Yan couldn’t persuade him, and he only took the oil.

The barrels of oil had to be bought. A hundred catties of oil were carried in two large barrels. When Xue Dafu and Xue Erfu brought the oil home, they naturally didn’t forget to give their big brother thirty coins as barrel money.

It was also the day they moved home that Xue Dafu and Xue Erfu borrowed an ox cart to go to town and sell the oil.

After deducting the taxes, the money to buy the oil barrels, and the money to borrow the ox cart, the family finally earned 1120 coins, which was more than one silver.

In the past, they had only earned 400 coins. Now, they had earned more than one silver. It was more than double the amount. Xue Dafu and the others were very satisfied and happy.

“Guixia, quickly put it away, put it away.” Xue Dafu gave the money to Liu Guixia.

“Okay.” Liu Guixia smiled and agreed.

Jiang Yue looked at how happy Dafu Xue and the others were because they had an extra silver at home, and she whispered to Xue Yan, “The moonbelly fungus should have grown well.”

Xue Yan nodded and said in a low voice, “Then we’ll go to the mountains again tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

The next day, after breakfast, Xue Yan took out a basket and carried it on his back.

He also took out the small shovels he used to plant strong seedlings and put them in the basket.

“What are you doing, Xue Yan?” Xue Wufu’s injury had already recovered and he was jumping around again. Seeing this scene, he immediately ran over like a monkey.
