Basically, they are miscellaneous trees, shrubs, wild bamboo forests, bananas, wild ginger, etc.
Halfway down the mountain,
Luo Xuan saw a few rubber trees mixed in among the woods.
Maybe birds, wild animals or something accidentally brought rubber seeds.
Luo Xuan asked Nami on his back, "Are there many rubber trees here? And at the purchasing station in the commune, do they accept rubber?"
"There are not many rubber trees here."
Nami replied, "Across the boundary river, I heard that there are quite a lot of people growing rubber."
"The Mengli Commune also collects rubber at its purchasing station. Moreover, the commune also allocates funds every year to encourage everyone to plant rubber trees."
Nami said, "It's just that people in the village think that planting rubber trees will bring about too slow results.
So in our village, there are almost no people willing to plant rubber trees."
After Luo Xuan listened, he was thoughtful.
It seems that one way is to develop the half of the mountain that you are allocated to plant rubber trees.
Just planting rubber requires a relatively large initial investment.
The process of waiting until there is a profit will also be very long.
7 years. Generally, you need to wait until 7 years after planting rubber trees to start seeing benefits.
But planting rubber trees also has several benefits: First, our country is currently seriously short of rubber raw materials.
Every year, we have to spend a lot of precious foreign exchange to import rubber raw materials from Southeast Asian countries.
If rubber trees are planted here and eventually succeed, the first is that it can bring long-term and stable economic benefits to the local mountain people.
also,
This move can also save the country a lot of valuable foreign exchange.
This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone and benefits the country and the people. No matter how large the initial investment is and how long it takes.
Luo Xuan is also prepared to stick to it.
The second benefit is to plant rubber trees, which have a long profit period.
The rubber tree is the tallest and can be harvested continuously for 30 years.
Therefore, using the hills to plant rubber trees requires a large initial investment and takes a long time, but it is definitely a project worth doing.
It's just that Luo Xuan needs to find a feasible plan for sustainable development that doesn't require him to invest any money.
Otherwise, I will always let myself give money and support.
It's not unfair, it's not.
After all, that's not a long-term solution.
Looking at so many mountains, but there is no output?
In fact, this has a lot to do with the lack of a leader to lead the mountain people to get rich.
people in this area,
They like to grow rice in the valleys; sometimes they also grow upland rice in the mountains.
However, most people have given up growing upland rice, a crop with poor yield and low return rate.
Therefore, on most mountains, all kinds of trees grow freely.
Even very valuable mahogany is not rare here.
It's just that because of transportation, it is extremely not backward. These redwoods, which are very valuable in the mainland, are just useless things in the eyes of those in the village.
Even when they cut it down to make fire, they thought the redwood was too hard and too expensive for their own hatchets.
Not worth it!
"Luo Xuan, you may encounter a little trouble after you go back."
While taking a rest halfway, Na Li quietly approached Luo Xuan.
He lowered his voice and said, "Nami's father is very difficult to deal with. He may come to extort your money and say that it was because of you that Nami was injured."
Luo Xuan was puzzled, "Obviously he was from another village. When he came here to hunt, he accidentally hurt Nami. How come it's my fault again?"
Among this group of girls,
Najudi has a little baby fat and a stupid brain;
Namu is like a butterfly, cheerful and simple.
And Miss Nali is undoubtedly the most stable and intelligent person among them.
As for Nami, apart from her cuteness, Luo Xuan really didn't see anything special about her.
Nali glanced at Nami who was resting at the foot of the slope.
He whispered, "And I feel that the dancer in the village will target you sooner or later."
Luo Xuan was puzzled, "I didn't recruit him or provoke him. Last time, he came to do some work at my house, and I asked Lao Min about it afterwards.
The price I gave is relatively high in the village. What reason does he have to target me?"
"Because you stole his limelight."
Nali explained, "In the past, if an unexpected situation like Nami's happened, people in the village would go to the dancers to deal with it.
After the dancers dealt with it, people in the village would often lie in bed and have fever for several days.
Most people will be possessed by evil spirits during those few days, rolling around on the ground and saying some strange things."
"In this case, their family will have to kill two more chickens and continue to invite dancers to exorcise evil spirits."
Nali said, "But you bandaged Nami yesterday. Look at her, not only last night but now Nami's body, there is nothing wrong with her.
He didn’t say any nonsense that people couldn’t understand.”
Luo Xuan heard this,
He couldn't help but frown: It seemed that it was indeed possible for him to inadvertently kill that guy who was pretending to be a ghost.
Offended
You know, dancers don’t just pretend to be dragons and ghosts to trick people into eating and drinking.
In fact, secretly, he is also playing the role of a "local doctor".
In the village, the person with the highest prestige is undoubtedly Lao Dao.
But the person that everyone fears the most is probably the dancer.
The dancers in these villages are not only good at traditional exorcisms and sacrificial rituals. In fact, secretly, they also know some medical science and prescriptions.
Otherwise, if someone in the village falls ill.
These dancers cannot cure the patients just by causing epilepsy.
actually,
When they were performing exorcism rituals, they would also secretly pour some so-called "talisman water" into the mountain people.
And in that bowl of water,
Only the dancer himself knows what kind of herbs are mixed with it.
now,
He used the advanced medical technology from the mainland to bandage Nami's wounds.
From yesterday to now, Nami has shown no signs of infection or fever.
The reason why the effect is so good,
One is wild girls like Nami, whose own resistance and immunity are very strong.
another one,
That is to say, the viruses in this period have not evolved that much.
If someone is accidentally injured, a little bit of modern antibiotics can basically help the patient get through the wound infection period safely.
"Just offend me if you offend me."
Luo Xuan sighed, "You also know the situation at that time. I can't just stand by and not bandage Nami's wound, can I?
If we had to send her to the village urgently and let the dancer cast a spell on Nami, the blood on her body would have been drained long ago."
Nali also sighed, "We all know the truth, so what?
Nami doesn't even dare to make a sound at home. Nami's father alone has the final say in matters at home."
"Let's go."
Luo Xuan stood up and said, "When I came out, I saw a mountain spring not far behind my house.
After I get home today, I have to think of a way to lead this mountain spring to the house.
In this way, water is very convenient whether it is used for cooking or bathing."
Nali was a little worried, "What if Nami's father really comes to blackmail you for your money?"
Luo Xuan curled his lips and said, "Just give it to him! How big a carrot can the little rabbit ask for when he opens his mouth? Now let him take advantage of it, and I will treat it as payment for Nami's hard work."
"But I will write this down for him."
Luo Xuan picked up Nami and left, "One day, he will regret that he offended me today."
The mountain people here are short-sighted and cannot see the long term.
Moreover, their way of thinking was completely different from his own. Luo Xuan did not want to provoke them to endless entanglements just for a small sum of 10 yuan or 8 yuan.
If Nami's father only cares about the little money in front of him.
Then, when the rubber plantation comes up, he will not be able to take any part in it.
Let him spend his whole life living in small money!
The decision is made.
After Luo Xuan returned home, he picked up a hoe and began to implement the water diversion project.
The water quality here is not particularly good.
Even mountain spring water contains high levels of iron and fluorine.
Luo Xuan plans to first divert the mountain spring water to the side of the house, and then build a sedimentation tank and filter tank in two days.
The water source here cannot be used without filtering it.
Not long after Nami was sent home by Namu, Najudi and Naxigu.
Sure enough, her father was accompanied by several relatives, each carrying a musket on his back, a dagger hanging on his waist, and a rusty machete in his hand.
They were noisy and came to Luo Xuan to ask for "medical expenses" and "loss expenses".
Luo Xuan asked her father, "What did your Nami lose?"
Nami’s father replied, “You ask my Nami not to work for the next half month. Isn’t this a loss?
In the next two days, I will kill two chickens. I will invite the dancer to come over and perform rituals so that Nami can get better as soon as possible. Isn’t this a loss?"
Luo Xuan asked him again, "What else?"
Nami's father scratched his head, "That's probably it, right?"
Luo Xuan then asked, "How much do you plan to ask for?"
Nami's father raised his hand and twisted it three times in a row.
Luo Xuan couldn't understand.
So he turned to look at Lao Min and asked him to help translate what the other person meant.
Old Min snorted coldly, "Zara, you don't have money to buy cigarettes, so you are crazy about money, right? How dare you ask for 15 yuan?"
If you want Luo Xuan, I will give you two months of cigarette money at a time. It’s nice! Go away, I won’t give you a penny today!”
Nami’s father got a stick in his neck!
He took off the gun from his shoulder and shook it in his hand.
He was threatening Lao Min.
Old Min, who was well aware of the habits of this people, snorted coldly: "Who are you trying to scare?
If you dare to use a knife or a gun today, do you believe that Lao Dao will skin you alive tonight?
In terms of boxing and kicking skills, believe it or not, Luo Xuan can throw you, a skinny monkey, out of the wall with just one hand."
No matter what kind of conflicts and hatred there are between people in the same village.
You can make an appointment with each other, but you must never use a knife or a gun.
This is the iron law left by the ancestors in Laku Village!
No one dares to violate
Judging from last night’s experience, it was really good.
Luo Xuan took out the money from his pocket and was about to give it to Nami's father.
Miao Meisha was originally working at Lao Min's house. At this time, she saw many mountain people coming to Luo Xuan's house with firecrackers and machetes to cause trouble.
I couldn't help but run over quickly.
When she heard that Nami's father actually asked Luo Xuan for 15 yuan in damages.
Miao Meisha, who usually looks like a gentle person,
He couldn't help but get furious: "Luo Xuan, don't give it to him! He is bullying you. He just came from the mainland. Don't give him a penny."
If he dares to cause trouble, I will cross the boundary river tomorrow and pull over 100 people for you. See who is afraid of whom?"
people here,
If there is trouble inside, run outside.
Likewise, guys who cause trouble outside will also hide here.
Miao Meisha's village is a large village within a radius of several hundred miles.
Coupled with the large number of people in her team, she is one of the best in the area.
therefore,
Miao Meisha, who also came from afar, was not afraid of the mountain people from the Laku production team.
Luo Xuan waved his hand,
After stopping Lao Min, Miao Meisha got angry.
He reached out and handed the money to Nami's father, "Take it and leave. If you dare to take even one step into this yard in the future, I will break your legs."
Looking at Nami’s father’s retreating back.
Old Min asked in a low voice, "Luo Xuan, why do you want to give in to him? A beating for this kind of person is in vain. He has been smoking for decades, his whole body is weak, and he will fall down with a push."
Luo Xuan shook his head,
"It's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows."
Luo Xuan said, "There are too many poisonous ivy, poisonous ivy, and poisonous snakes and centipedes. Give him a small amount of money to prevent him from holding a grudge and waiting for revenge. It is still worth it."
Seeing that Miao Meisha was not convinced, she still felt angry.
Luo Xuan patted her shoulder and comforted her softly: "It's only 15 yuan, there's no need to get angry with him.
Is it more cost-effective to be able to drink water peacefully and sleep soundly than to have to be on guard against this person doing bad things all the time?"
