When it grows up, it will become able to eat, poop, drill holes, and chew through cages made of bamboo and wood.
This is a kind of guy who is particularly capable of causing trouble and chewing up things.
If I don't make the rabbit nest stronger and more reliable this time, I will definitely have to spend energy to rework it in the future.
So Luo Xuan planned to go to the quarry and get some thin stone slabs to make a fence for these rabbits.
When they arrived at the quarry, Luo Tiezhu, who was busy cutting trenches, had already caught a glimpse of Luo Xuan, and couldn't help but pause for a moment.
Sweating like rain, he took the opportunity to wipe the sweat that was flowing like a stream on his forehead with the blackened and sour towel hanging around his neck.
Luo Tiezhu didn't say a word, nor did he even look at Luo Xuan.
Then he continued to swing the small hammer, hit the long chisel hard, and worked hard.
Luo Xuan also clearly saw Luo Tiezhu's every move just now.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but secretly complain in my heart: It's really made of stone!
Don't you even dare to express the love and concern in your own heart?
For future generations, Luo Tiezhu, you are destined to be single!
I don’t know why my former adoptive mother, Zhao Mei, chose such a pimple?
Luo Xuan's heart was filled with mixed feelings and thoughts.
Uncle Zhang, who also worked in the quarry, naturally saw Luo Xuan.
I saw him put down the sledgehammer in his hand and came forward to meet him.
When he found out what Luo Xuan's purpose was, Uncle Zhang nodded toward the foot of the mountain, signaling Luo Xuan to go back first.
As for the slate matter, he will naturally come up with a solution.
Luo Xuan turned around and walked down the mountain, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: We are both members of the production team, and we are also masons. How can we be so different from each other?
There are even times when Luo Xuan has to wonder: Between Luo Tiezhu and Uncle Zhang, who is his cheap dad?!
Return home.
Luo Xuan was lying on the bed to take a rest, and then he heard someone looking for him outside.
When Luo Xuan went out and took a look, he turned out to be someone from the production team next door.
I just knew that he looked familiar, but I didn't know his name.
The man asked Luo Xuan: "I heard that you want to buy small turtles, and you want turtles regardless of size?"
Luo Xuan nodded, "Yes, small turtles under 1 kilogram cost 5 cents each. Those from 1 kilogram to 2 kilograms cost 1 yuan each. Those above 3 kilograms, no matter how big they are, cost 3 yuan each.
"
The man smiled and said: "Who will sell it to you for 3 kilograms or more? These days, I have to go to my father-in-law's place to help for a while. You also know, Tuanyudang, this thing
There are so many!
Let’s do this. When the time comes, I’ll catch the soft-shelled turtle and check its size. Then we can discuss the specific price. How about that?”
Luo Xuan originally asked the Zhou brothers to go around and let him know that he wanted to buy turtles.
At that time, Luo Xuan only offered one pea cake for the Zhou brothers.
Now that the other party is an adult, I'm afraid it's a bit hard to handle a pea cake.
So Luo Xuan raised the price.
Unexpectedly, people actually know the market price and know that soft-shell turtles weighing more than 3 kilograms are more valuable.
Now Luo Xuan saw that the other party was talking in two words, so he nodded and said: "Okay! If you catch a big turtle, or your relatives over there, or a neighbor has something in stock, no matter how big or small the turtle is, I'll trouble you
Bring it back for me, and we'll evaluate it later."
The man nodded with satisfaction, and then asked Luo Xuan, "Why did you buy so many turtles?"
Luo Xuan lowered his head, scratched the soil with his toes, and replied sheepishly: "I heard that drinking the blood of old turtles can make the bones of the body become..."
"Oh~ I see."
The man looked like he suddenly understood, and then patted Luo Xuan on the shoulder: "I understand. Just watch it. I will get you some turtles back in a few days, and I guarantee that you will be alive and kicking!"
After saying that, the man turned around and left.
As for why I bought so many turtles, I could use the excuse that turtle blood can cure my "rake disease" to get over it.
but now.
Luo Xuan didn't have much money left.
Talking about a thousand words and ten thousand, but having no money in your pocket is the only thing that can really stump a heroic man.
So I have to get some cash back quickly. Otherwise, let alone saying that I don’t have money to buy turtles, I’m afraid I won’t even have my own tuition fees.
Luo Xuan took out 2 pounds of deboned meat and carefully divided it into two equal packages.
One package was given to the third sister-in-law who built a bamboo bed and bamboo table and chairs for herself.
The other package was given to Aunt Zhang.
Luo Xuan asked her to come over and take care of the house for him when she had time, and to take care of the chickens and rabbits in the yard.
Then Luo Xuan found the three brothers of the Zhou family.
They were told to cut the grass and come back every day to feed the rabbits for themselves. They were also told to feed the chickens with earthworms and rice every day.
He also promised that when he comes back, he will give corresponding rewards to the three brothers of the Zhou family based on their seriousness in their work.
These three brothers now also know that Helix is very generous in its dealings.
The three brothers were very happy to be able to use their leisure time in exchange for a considerable reward.
The three brothers of the Zhou family nodded repeatedly, patting their chests and promising that they would definitely be able to handle Luo Xuan's settlement.
Arrange everything at home.
Luo Xuan went to the Hongxing Township Supply and Marketing Cooperative's retail store again and bought 20 large hemp bags.
A sack sells for 1 dime and 2 cents.
It doesn't sound like sacks are expensive, they only cost 1 dime and 2 cents each.
But now a strong laborer in a production team earns only 8 or 9 cents for a day's work.
A sack is equivalent to a strong laborer, which is a little more than a day's wages.
Calculating it like this, this sack is really not cheap.
Luo Xuan originally wanted to buy nylon woven bags.
Unfortunately, the country's chemical industry was not very developed during this period, so snakeskin woven bags, which were most common in later generations, were very rare items during this period.
In the end, Luo Xuan settled for the next best thing and had no choice but to buy this big and heavy sack and make do with it.
This evening.
Uncle Zhang and five apprentices from the quarry brought 8 large and thin bluestone slabs to Luo Xuan.
Luo Xuan originally planned to buy each of them a box of "Chun Geng Brand" cigarettes to express his gratitude.
But Uncle Zhang held down his shoulders, meaning that Luo Xuan would not be allowed to spend money arbitrarily.
After thanking Uncle Zhang and several of his apprentices, Luo Xuan went into the space to build the stone fence and put all the rabbits in and locked them up.
Wait until evening.
Luo Xuan made a midnight snack for Xiao Cao.
After the brother and sister had eaten and Luo Xuan sent Xiaocao home, they went to bed early to rest.
The moon is bright and clear, and the sound of frogs is everywhere.
A night of silence.
Just waiting for tomorrow morning, Luo Xuan will have to travel 40 miles away to dig up medicinal materials in the mountains alone, and look for mountain products to sell back.
