Chapter 209 The Boy Scouts gather again

Madam Qi nodded repeatedly, and the family began to wander around again.

When Yan Laoer came back, his daughter had already divided his money into several piles.

This one is so quick...

"Dad, I'll put it in different bags for you." Yan Yu arranged her father's money clearly.

"The public house, your private house, and our family's house." Yan Yu pinched him with her eyes, "How much do you plan to leave for our family?"

Yan Laoer went out and walked around to let his mind think clearly.

He pushed fifty taels of silver over.

"Mei, keep these. This is our family's emergency money. It can't be moved easily."

Another dozen were released.

"These are left for home expenses."

He wrapped up the rest and put them all away.

"I'll take the rest with me. When I go out this time, I plan to visit the towns around Huju first. If it's not enough, I'll skip Yongning and go directly to Longxing."

Yan Yu no longer had the pleasure of dividing money.

"Dad, you must be careful." She bit her lip and whispered, "Otherwise, you should bring that iron crossbow."

Li Xuemei's eyelids twitched.

She immediately objected: "Don't talk nonsense, her uncle told us not to use it."

Yan Laoer touched his daughter's soft hair.

"There are three treasures here. Why are you worrying so much? I won't run if something really happens. As fast as our three treasures are, if you really want to run, no one can catch up with me."

Yan Yu thought the same thing, she was worrying unfoundedly.

When the Qi family came back, Yan Laoer made preparations to leave.

Qi Da stuffed a wooden stick into the car. Qi Wu didn't see it and stuffed another one.

Qi Si looked at what he had prepared, and after thinking about it, he didn't take up much space, so he simply brought them all.

Yan Laoer convinced the three of them.

But I didn’t take it off, I just carried it with me and occasionally used it as a carrying pole.

He packed several baskets and a lot of wrapping cloths. He also took the coarse cloth rubbed with tung oil.

People are not afraid of watering, but they are afraid that the medicinal materials will get wet, which would be bad.

The two people drove away.

Yan Yu suddenly became excited.

"Mom, I'm going to find someone to play with."

"Go." Li Xuemei didn't care.

What Yan Yu meant by finding someone to play with was to gather the boy scouts.

"The work in the fields is all done. We have been lazy for so long. It's time to take action!" She raised her arms and pointed to the mountains to the north.

"All teams, I'll give you a quarter of an hour to assemble, bring your weapons, target: the mountains, get ready to go!"

Coyotito asked her: "Our weapons are all burned, where can we find them?"

He was talking about bamboo crossbows, which were burned cleanly by adults and children before entering Guanzhou.

"There are no bamboo crossbows, but wooden sticks! Where are your little wooden bows? Don't tell me you didn't make them secretly. I saw them all." Yan Yu was not easy to fool.

The children were giggling.

You push me, I poke you.

Small wooden bows could not shoot as far as those made of bamboo, so they just used them to practice their aim.

The adults thought they were joking.

Just made it casually.

Only the children took the leader's words to heart.

Yan Xiaoer didn't say anything about disbanding, they were still boy scouts, always waiting for the call from the leader.

No, they are going to act collectively again.

The children were not afraid of going into the mountains and were looking forward to it.

"By the way, our operation this time must be kept secret. We are not allowed to tell our family before we come back." Yan Yu didn't want to waste time.

"Okay, let's disperse. We'll gather at the same place in a quarter of an hour."

Hooray!

The children ran in all directions.

In a blink of an eye, only a few children who lived nearby were left at the big rock.

"Fengnian, do you want to come with us too? Didn't your father give you a lot of homework?" Yan Yu asked doubtfully.

"I memorize some in advance every day. I'm almost done. Brother... brother, let me go with you." Liang Fengnian pleaded softly.

Yan Yu, who had also been assigned homework, felt the same way.

"Okay, you can arrange your own time. If Uncle Liang comes back to check your homework and is dissatisfied, don't mention the Boy Scouts."

"I won't tell it, keep it secret." Liang Fengnian promised.

Soon, a child ran back.

In less than a quarter of an hour, all the teams were assembled.

Yan Yu also carried a wooden stick, which was quite long and much taller than her.

She is now the strength of an adult, every inch longer and stronger, and the stick suits her well.

"This time we went into the mountains mainly to collect medicinal materials. Have you all learned from the adults at home what kind of medicinal materials we are looking for? Those who haven't learned from it are fine. You will know after digging a few times.

The first time we go into the mountains, we act as a group and don’t separate, okay, that’s it, let’s go!”

The mighty boy scouts marched neatly towards the mountain.

Even though they haven't trained for a long time, they still remember what they learned very well, and each of them pays great attention to the formation of his team.

The leader, Yan Yu, did nothing but keep an eye on them.

Wherever they aimed, the team would stand tall and raise their chests.

These are all evaluated, and the team that falls behind will be punished.

Yan Yu asked Maomao to help determine the direction and general scope.

They have gained something along the way.

The happy children were beaming with joy.

A group of gray fur scurried around in fright.

Santie, who was clearing the way in front, made a gesture.

The child behind immediately stopped.

Yan Yu made a judgment and stood on the stone.

"There is a hare nest nearby. Each team should spread out to look for it. They are not allowed to go far. They must look for it where they can see me."

The children looked in all directions.

People continue to report finding rabbit nests.

This made Santie very confused.

"Why so many?"

Yan Yu's eyes lit up.

"Not one litter, but several litters!"

They are the only village nearby, and they have just arrived.

Before them, probably no one came into this mountain.

It has never been cultivated by anyone.

Hehe, what a mountain!

Yan Yu was well prepared and took out the flint.

"Brother Er Tie, you and Brother Three Tie are responsible for lighting the fire. Be careful not to let the fire start."

The second and third irons nodded and took the order and left.

Yan Yu was still standing on the stone.

Smoke ignited, and the children guarding several cave entrances shouted excitedly.

Country children are good at catching rabbits and chickens.

Only two died, and the rest were alive.

"keep going!"

If you see more of them, you can easily tell which one is a medicinal herb.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! They have no tools and rely on their hands.

If you need to dig out roots, use a small wooden stick handy.

The children in front and side kept hitting the grass and thorns with wooden sticks.

They also saw frightened pheasants flying through the air.

It's a pity that the pheasant with bright feathers is so good at flying that it flashes its wings from east to west.

Our small wooden bow couldn't shoot far, so unfortunately it ran away.

But they picked up the chicken feathers it dropped.

In addition to Yan Yu, there are also female dolls from other families in the Boy Scouts. They exchanged medicinal materials with others and planned to save up more to make a feather shuttlecock...

The children reluctantly went down the mountain until the baskets they carried were full.

When I returned, it was past noon.

The adults in each family are doing fine.

It’s not that one or two families are missing, or all the children in the village are missing, then they must all be together.

There are many people, and they feel relieved.

It's the big rock again.

The children gathered together the collected medicinal materials.

The idea of ​​taking it home is not that strong.

In terms of their sense of belonging, they are more willing to hand it over to their leader, Yan Xiaoer.

Although the reward promised to them by the leader has been delayed for a long time...

Yan Yu asked brother Dagouzi and brother Xiaoxiaozi to help classify the medicinal materials.

The attentive little sisters also moved their hands next to them, passing them around to arrange them more neatly.

Don't underestimate this process.

It will make the children feel that their team is very well-behaved and does things seriously without fooling around.

"There are two options for how to deal with these medicinal materials. One is that we sell them directly and put the money directly into the warehouse to use as military expenses for our Boy Scouts. Our equipment is all complete. It doesn't look like that. In the military expenses,

Give us what we need, for example, each of us needs a backpack of the right size and a handy tool for digging medicine."

The children below looked up at Yan Yu, without anyone interrupting.

Because the boss hasn't finished speaking yet.

Yan Yu held out two fingers, "Two, we learn to prepare the medicinal materials ourselves. The advantage of this is that we can sell more money, but the disadvantage is that it is a waste of time.

There are many types of medicinal materials. Not only do we have to study them carefully and be careful not to make mistakes and spoil the medicine, we also allocate a part of our manpower specifically to do this."

"We discussed these two items among ourselves and made up our minds, and we will not change them again. In the future, we will discuss things like this in person that are related to the development of our Boy Scouts.

However, once the result is obtained, no matter what other thoughts are in my heart, it will not work. We have to act according to what we have discussed."

"Now, guys, let's talk about it."

Dagouzi was the first to speak: "I know my father makes medicinal materials, but it's troublesome. It has to be dried and washed, and some have to be burned. If you make a mistake, the medicine will be useless. It's better for us to sell it directly to save money.

.”

Coyotito followed closely: "What my brother said is what I want to say. Everyone believes us. It's true. It takes a lot of effort!"

"Then let's just sell it. If we have time, we can search more in the mountains and dig up more medicine."

"That's right, sell it."

The children all found it troublesome, and Yan Xiaoer also said that someone must learn this recipe, and it must not be him.

"Okay, that's it, we'll sell the medicine we dig up directly from now on." Yan Yu made the final decision.

"Yan Xiaoer, who are you selling these to? Does Mr. Cui take them?"

"Mr. Cui doesn't accept it, but the big man in Huju City does. My father goes out to buy medicines. The big man accepts all the medicines we dig now, but they want to concoct them. Let's sell them like this and get the money."

not much."

Yan Yu doesn't just take things lightly just because everyone is young.

Instead, he explained it very carefully.

"You should also learn these words from the adults at home when you go home. The elders are considerate of us and don't let us work in vain. We are paid for collecting medicines.

But you have to wait until you sell it before you can get the money. The exact amount depends on how many patent medicines are concocted in the end.

Medicines are also divided into colors. If the quality is good, it will be more expensive, and if the quality is bad, it will be cheaper.

This quality is related to whether the medicine was damaged when we dug it. If it is incomplete, it will not be sold at a high price.

Therefore, everyone should be careful and would rather move slowly to ensure the integrity of the entire herb."

The children clenched their little fists and understood.

As soon as Yan Yu announced the dismissal, all the children returned to their nests and ran home happily.

Can’t wait to share the news Yan Xiaoer told them.

You get paid to dig herbs!

Yan Yu was registering, writing down the quantity according to type, and then asked Brother Dagouzi and Brother Xiaoxiaozi to help move it to her uncle.

"Uncle!" Yan Yu called affectionately.

Cui Langzhong stiffened.

Lady Cui has already come forward with a smile on her face.

"The waiter is here. Have you eaten yet? Let's eat at my aunt's house. I'll call out and say hello to your mother. Today's lunch will be left at my aunt's house. I made a leek box, it's delicious!"

Yan Yu agreed happily.

She swore that she was definitely not greedy for the leek box, but simply wanted to discuss things with her uncle.

Lady Cui was particularly happy.

She shouted with a loud voice, not to mention her mother, half of the village heard her.

She, Yan Xiaoer, went to Cui's house to have a meal!

As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

Yan Yu understands the true meaning of it.

He sat generously at the Cui family's dining table and became a guest for a while.

The Cui family's leek box is stuffed with wild duck eggs and leeks. It doesn't have the fragrance of eggs, but the taste of leeks is too overpowering, which makes up for this shortcoming.

It can be summed up in two words - delicious.

After a full meal, Yan Yu started talking about business.

"Uncle, did my father tell you? The medicinal materials of each family are separated, and they can be sold later to calculate the money."

Cui Langzhong nodded: "Your father said it, I will remember it."

"But uncle, we went into the mountains to dig up medicine today and found a very serious problem. There are too many of them and there are many types. How can you remember them? It's too inconvenient. You can't just pile them up in one place. It's easy to get confused."

She hurriedly asked Brother Dagouzi and Brother Xiaoxiaozi to bring their medicine.

"Uncle, look, we dug all this in the morning. In a few days, I'm afraid you won't even be able to put it in your yard."

Cui Langzhong had never thought about this before. Mainly, he had always collected the medicine himself and concocted it himself.

I never thought that one day my small family workshop would have to handle such a large volume of business.

I thought about it carefully for a while.

Indeed!

How can this be done?!

Not to mention the lack of space, he also didn’t have enough things, including racks for drying, baskets, straw mats...

Nothing!

How did he agree to help concoct the medicinal materials? This... this is simply impossible!

Cui Langzhong was anxious, "I still have a lot of things missing. If they bring them, first... put them over to the big stone first."

Sweat began to form on his forehead.

It's okay to say that these medicines don't leave the soil. Once they leave the soil, you have to hurry up and prepare them, otherwise they will lose their medicinal properties.

"Otherwise, otherwise, tell them not to go up the mountain yet, collect this batch of medicine first, and then go into the mountain to collect the next batch when it's ready."

How can this be done? Over there in Huju City, they are eagerly waiting for the medicine.

"Uncle, saving people is like putting out fires. How can we wait? If we could wait, my father would not take Fourth Uncle Qi outside to collect medicine."

"Xiaoer, please think of a way, you have the most ideas." Dagouzi trusted this smart sister very much.

Mrs. Cui has had many dealings with the Yan family, and she also knows that the Yan family's waiter is capable of causing trouble.

"Second servant, help your uncle think about it. Look at him. He's so pitiful. He only knows good intentions and doesn't have good plans in his heart. He's so busy at this time."
