After the women finished gossiping, she did not wait any longer and directly said that she wanted to go to the mountain to pick herbs.
"Aunties, I think Aunt Lin has already told you. After picking the herbs, as long as you bring them to me to sell, I'll give you ten copper coins per catty. I wonder if any of you have any objections?”
After Zhang Yan left her place yesterday, Madame Lin immediately went to tell the good news to the few women who were usually close to her.
The women didn't believe it at first. After all, he didn't really understand what kind of person Zhang Yan was. Although she didn't like to talk about people's mistakes, the rumors in the village were still spreading.
It was already bad behavior to be chased out after seducing the Li family's master. Now, she had somehow hooked up with a strange man of unknown origin.
Would such a person not have other thoughts?
Were they trying to instigate them to do something shameful to get money?
Even though he thought so, he still decided to come and take a look.
After interacting with Zhang Yan, he realized that this girl was not as bad as everyone said. She was quite likable.
Just the confidence and determination in her eyes made the women of her generation respect her.
He nodded repeatedly in agreement.
"In that case, I won't say much. Today, I'll bring all of you up the mountain to take a look and let you know what herbs look like.”
After he finished speaking, he said a few words to Song Qi, then he brought his basket and sickle up the mountain with everyone.
It was still early and there were not many people in the village.
It was quiet on the mountain.
With the previous experience, Zhang Yan did not lead them deeper. She only picked some ordinary medicinal herbs at the periphery and said,"These are plantain seeds, purslane, cocklebur, and mothergrass. Including the dandelion in front, these are all Chinese medicine. Aunties, look carefully first to avoid picking the wrong ones…"
The women were really shocked when they saw Zhang Yan picking them one by one.
Were these wild grasses and flowers actually herbs?
Now, could these still be sold for money?
Madame Lin swallowed a mouthful of saliva. She was very straightforward and would not beat around the bush when she spoke. She did not even shut her mouth. She opened her mouth and said,"Yan girl, are these herbs?" If that's the case, won't we all be rich?”
He could definitely pick three to five catties a day, let alone five to ten catties.
According to this calculation, it was thirty to forty wen a day. For those who didn't have a source of income, weren't they rich?
Zhang Yan knew her temper, so she didn't hate it when she said that. She nodded immediately.
"Yes, these are the most common herbs. However, let me say this first. The herbs should be clean. You can't mix them with other things.”
The few women hurriedly nodded. As long as there was money to earn, they would do anything!
After carefully confirming the herbs again, they took action.
After a while, the dull atmosphere became much livelier, but it also allowed Zhang Yan to hear a lot of rumors in the village, such as whose daughter-in-law starved her mother-in-law to death, or whose young lady hooked up with many wild men.。。
Previously, Zhang Yan was very disgusted by what she heard, but the more she heard the latter part, the more interesting she felt.
He subconsciously picked up the herbs faster.
