Chapter 102: Good Words for Free
Although they are everywhere in the city, you can save some effort if you don’t have to pick them up yourself, and you can pick up more.

"Thank you, big brother."

"Big brother, you are so nice."

"Big Brother, you are the kindest people we have ever met..."

Several people kept thanking the bug catching team, throwing out nice words as if they were free.

Their well-behaved and sensible appearance made the insect-catching team, who were originally too tired to care about anyone, grin and persuade them not to eat too many insects.

"Yeah, we know. As long as we're not hungry, that's fine." Bai Xiaocao responded obediently, and the others nodded in agreement.

The insect catching team readily lifted the cart, and several sacks on the cart rolled off, and then they left.

"Big brother, sack..."

A team of insect catching people were pushing carts, carrying brooms, and their steps were much lighter than before.

Hearing the voice behind him, one of them waved his hand: "It's all for you."

These sacks were not worth much money. Anyway, the government bought a lot of them to catch insects. They usually threw them into the fire pit and burned them together with the insects.

Otherwise, it would take a lot of time to pour the bugs out of the sack.

There was also a waiter at a shop on the street who was cleaning up bugs. When he saw this scene, he shouted to Bai Xiaocao and the others.

"Hey, guys, there are some here, do you want some?"

The city has regulations that all shops along the street must send the insects they collect to the south of the city for incineration, or burn them in the backyard of the shop.

But there are so many bugs that it would be impossible to burn them all in the backyard.

Seeing Bai Xiaocao and the others asking for insects from the insect catching team, the waiters who wanted to save time and effort also started to have ideas.

Bai Xiaocao and the others naturally would not refuse, and nodded one after another: "Yes, yes..."

As soon as they heard they wanted it, the waiters hurried to carry out the cleaned bugs.

"Come on, it's all for you."

It’s great that I don’t have to go to Chengnan to burn it myself today!
While expressing their gratitude, Bai Xiaocao and the others gathered the crayfish from the shops together. They left two people to wait for the cart to return while the others went forward.

There are at least fifty or sixty shops on one street. When the waiter in the shop at the back saw this scene, he was so envious.

With these few shops setting the precedent, the waiters in other shops began to follow their example.

Although some people are wondering, after all, there are so many insects, can these little girls eat so many?

But I have seen other people picking up insects before, so even though I was puzzled, I didn’t think too much about it. As long as I could save myself some trouble today, it was fine.

A shop could carry three or four sacks at least, and six or seven at most.

After harvesting one street, Bai Xiaocao and her other girls brought back more than 300 sacks of crayfish.

Bai Tao was surprised and delighted when she heard this: "Not bad, not bad. Although they are young, they are smart enough. This is a good idea. It saves a lot of effort."

Even if there are a lot of crayfish, it takes time to pick them up.

The sacks in ancient times were not small. One sack could hold more than 200 kilograms.

There are more than 300 sacks. With so many, they must be sold to the mall for money.

"They have done a great job. When they come back later, I will give them each a set of clothes and a snack bag."

Now Bai Tao is rewarded quickly for his merits, either clothes or shoes and socks.

Children are given a separate gift pack of snacks, and adults give them what they need.

Although the villagers will not ask for it actively, Bai Tao will observe and know that what they give will always be something that can be used and will not be wasted.

"Auntie, we already have so much, do you want more?" Bai Dashan asked. Bai Tao: "Yes, of course I don't want more."

"Not only today, but also tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I'll take as many as you can get."

After a pause, she hooked her little finger at Bai Dashan.

Bai Dashan understood. This was what his aunt said every time she had something to say in private.

He walked forward in two or three quick steps, bent down, and whispered, "Auntie, please speak."

"It can be exchanged for food." Bai Tao said in a low voice and gave Bai Dashan a look that said you understand.

When Bai Dashan heard this, his pupils shrank, he suppressed his excitement and whispered, "Auntie, don't worry, after dinner later, I will take the villagers to continue catching insects and crayfish."

Qingzhou no longer has a curfew, so he took his fellow villagers to pick up more garbage at night.

"You don't have to be so tired." Bai Tao waved her hand: "We've been traveling all day, and everyone is exhausted."

"Auntie, we are not tired at all." Just kidding, auntie gave everyone a lot of skills to rely on.

Everyone's baggage and belongings were either carried on carriages or hung on horses' backs. Traveling was just a matter of walking a short distance, so there was no need to be tired at all.

Since these insects, uh, crayfish can be exchanged for food, we must hurry and pick up more.

If you are slow in dealing with such a pie-in-the-sky thing, you will be struck by lightning.

What if it suddenly disappears?

After all, with so many people suddenly appearing, it is possible that they will suddenly withdraw!
Seeing this, Bai Tao did not try to stop them and said, "Then don't pick them up too late." There were so many crayfish, and she didn't plan to let the villagers pick them all.

There are only more than 200 people working to sell to the mall, which is too inefficient.

Bai Dashan quickly conveyed Bai Tao's intention to the villagers: "My aunt said that the more the better, take as many as you can."

When the villagers heard this, they felt relieved.

Seeing how clever Bai Xiaocao and the other girls were, they began to imitate them.

When they went to the places where the trash was being picked up, they would ask the people in the shops for it in a nice manner, in the name of saving the people in the shops the trouble of transporting the trash to the south of the city.

The villagers who catch them in residential areas will ask for them from some families.

Especially some wealthy families, whose homes occupy large areas and have more crayfish, and because they are proud of their status, they hate the existence of these crayfish even more.

When the servants of the wealthy families in Qingzhou heard that someone was needed to help clean up the bugs, they immediately carried out the bugs that had not yet been sent to the south of the city to be burned this afternoon.

"Here, take these bugs away quickly."

"I'm telling you, we've given you all the bugs. You don't need so many of them, but you have to take them all away. If you lose them along the way and the clerks find you, we won't let you go!"

The people of Taohua Village quickly agreed.

"sure."

"Don't worry, don't worry."

"Of course, of course."

"No, no!"

Bai Duoxi was busy with more than a dozen people.

Half an hour later, the villagers who went out to pick crayfish came back one after another, and large pots of crayfish were ready.

In an instant, the fragrance filled the yard and also drifted out of the yard, causing many passers-by who were passing by the inn where Taohua Village lived to stop and sniff.

　Ahem, please give me some votes~~~
