He dug some ginseng and some Ganoderma lucidum in order of large, medium and small, and brought a little soil with them, and went back to cultivate them no matter whether they were big, medium or small.
This time the two bundles were particularly heavy, so he carried one in each hand and walked slowly down the mountain.
As I was walking, I suddenly heard a wolf howling in the distance.
Chen Xiaobei was a little surprised when he heard the howling of wolves.
Logically speaking, the wild wolf should be blocked on that steep slope that goes straight up and down. It must be more than ten or twenty miles away from where I am now. At such a distance, I can't hear the howling of the wolf.
Now that I can hear it, it means that a wolf has crossed that slope or passed around somewhere else.
Thinking of this, he felt a little frightened and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
As I walked, I was thinking, what kind of self-defense should I do?
After thinking about it, I remembered what Sun Jian said that day. It would be great if I could bring a serial crossbow.
However, the serial crossbow is a weapon, and it is not an ordinary weapon. It is impossible to buy it in ordinary shops. If you want to get the serial crossbow, you have to find other ways.
When he returned home, Cui Hongyu was a little surprised to see that he had brought back so many ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum.
But after listening to Chen Xiaobei's introduction, Cui Hongyu laughed.
"Husband, this Qingniu Mountain does not belong to us. It doesn't matter who picks the medicinal materials on the mountain. Why should you worry too much?"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head, "It's okay if I just pick a few plants. I'm afraid that by then they will eat them all in one pot, and then no one will be able to use ginseng and Ganoderma."
Cui Hongyu looked at him and said, "As a husband, what do you want to do?"
Chen Xiaobei's face straightened and he slowly stated his plan, "Tomorrow I will go to the county town and bring back more flower pots and transplant as many as possible, just in case."
Cui Hongyu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then a hint of admiration appeared on his face, "Yes, I want to bring back more. If everyone goes to the mountains to find ginseng, they will all be dug up in a short time."
Hearing what she said, Chen Xiaobei also realized the urgency of time, "Then I will go to the mountain again later and bring back more."
Cui Hongyu opened his mouth, but in the end, he still didn't speak.
Even eight cows can't get rid of what Chen Xiaobei decided.
After eating something and taking a short rest, Chen Xiaobei ran towards Qingniu Mountain again.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he was stared at from a distance. It was Chen Ping who was defeated yesterday.
Yesterday, only four big pheasants were left among the pheasants, which made him feel very unhappy.
He originally wanted to take a walk outside the village to relax, but when he looked up, he saw Chen Xiaobei leaving the village and heading towards Qingniu Mountain. He was more cautious and followed him immediately.
After bypassing the guard post at the foot of the mountain, Chen Ping followed Chen Xiaobei all the way up, directly to the mountain temple.
Chen Xiaobei obviously did not consider that there would be someone following him. His thoughts were all on the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum in Hulu Valley.
Entering Hulu Valley, Chen Xiaobei did not choose the ginseng and ganoderma that were large enough to be sold directly for money. Instead, he focused on the small seedlings. Only by protecting these seedlings could the ginseng and ganoderma be passed on to the future.
Each of them dug dozens of them, and the bag was filled to the brim. Only then did Chen Xiaobei stop.
After thinking about it, he dug up two large ginseng and two large Ganoderma lucidum, cleaned the soil and put them in his arms. He would sell them tomorrow to make money to buy water tanks and fishing nets.
Chen Ping, who was hiding in the woods, waited until Chen Xiaobei had gone far before he quietly ran out and went into Hulugou to watch carefully.
You won’t know it until you look at it, but you will be shocked when you see the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum all over the floor.
Chen Ping was so angry that she stamped her feet. No wonder Chen Xiaobei repaired a house and bought a donkey cart. Now, this kid has found a gold mine.
Chen Ping took off his coat, used the large ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum to make a big bulging bag, then carried it behind him and walked down the mountain, thinking about it in his mind as he walked.
This is your own good opportunity.
Villagers rushed to become village protectors. Many of them actually wanted to follow Chen Xiaobei in growing vegetables and earn a few more copper coins.
If you bring people to dig ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum yourself, and sell them for some money, wouldn't it be much better than growing vegetables?
Thinking of this, Chen Ping became excited.
When he returned home, he carefully inspected the ginseng and Ganoderma he brought back, and finally selected the largest ginseng and Ganoderma. Only those that were big enough would be convincing.
Seeing that it was getting dark, he put the Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng in his arms and left the house.
However, this time, he did not go to Chen Sanqiu's house, but turned around and went to find Chen Xiaobo first.
Chen Xiaobo grew up naked with him and was one of the first members of the village protection team. On weekdays, his relationship with him was pretty good.
Therefore, Chen Ping was confident to convince him.
When it got dark, Chen Xiaobo returned home. His old mother had already prepared dinner.
For them, dinner is just rice and some wild vegetables, some porridge, and a plate of pickles.
While the family of three was eating, the old mother Zhao spoke up, "Xiaobo, your third aunt came here at noon. She said that the red plums in Gaojia Village require a donkey as a bride price. You..."
Before his mother could finish speaking, Chen Xiaobo interrupted her directly, "Mom, a donkey costs four or five taels of silver at least. You know what our family is like, even if you sell iron, you probably won't be able to get two taels of silver."
Next to him, Father Chen also let out a long sigh, "There is a brother in Xiaomei's family. I think this donkey is probably from there too."
Zhao gave her man a dissatisfied look and said, "Don't worry about who wants it. Now the Gao family has announced that the red plum will be betrothed to anyone who gives it to the donkey."
Chen Xiaobo put down his rice bowl and said, "Mom, dad, don't worry. I'm learning to grow vegetables from Xiaobei. In less than two years, I will be able to save a donkey."
Mrs. Zhao looked at her son with a look of eagerness on her face, "You've been a red plum for two years. Are you waiting for me?"
"Surrounded by eight villages, how many young people are there, you..."
Chen Xiaobo was neither impatient nor impatient. He smiled and said, "Mom, there are many girls from all over the country. If you wait two years, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Mrs. Zhao's eyes widened, "There are many girls, but you don't even look at yourself. After the New Year, you will be twenty years old. If you wait two years, which girl will be willing to marry you?"
All right.
Chen Xiaobo was silent for a while.
However, given the conditions at home, it is simply impossible to get a donkey.
The conversation between the three people was clearly heard by Chen Ping outside the door.
He was secretly happy, wasn't the opportunity coming?
He coughed twice first, then stood at the door and shouted loudly: "Brother Xiaobo, are you at home?"
Hearing the shout, Chen Xiaobo stood up immediately, "It's the captain, come in quickly."
As he spoke, he went out to greet him.
Chen Ping chuckled and waved his hand, "I am no longer the captain of the village protection team. From now on, just call me Chen Ping."
