Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Chapter 2868 Going to the Countryside (3)

After leaving the village, Dong Xianwei reminded: "Master Bai, the sun is going down soon, let's go back to the city."

Bai Shan shook his head, "Let's go to the next village, I remember that the next one is Zhaojiagou? Let's stay overnight in Zhaojiagou at night."

Lieutenant Dong County: "...Sir, Zhaojiagou is very remote. We will go there at this time, and we won't be able to get there until it's dark."

"It's because of the remoteness that I have to stay overnight," Bai Shan said. "Otherwise, if you go to Zhaojiagou tomorrow, it will take a long time."

He looked at Lieutenant Dong Xian suspiciously, "Lieutenant Dong, you didn't bring a change of clothes, did you? As I said before, we will travel for three days on this trip."

Lieutenant Dong County: "...Sir, you shouldn't be in a hurry to wash up."

Isn't it normal for a big man to not wash for three or four days?

The road to Zhaojiagou was more difficult to walk, not to mention that it was getting dark at this time, so the group accelerated.

By the time they finally climbed over a hill and saw a village, it was completely dark, and only the moonlight shone on their way.

The people in the village had already slept, and at this time few could afford to light a lamp, so as soon as it got dark, there was no other light source except the stars and the moon in the sky.

They rode their horses into the dark and entered the village. Dong Xianwei knew that he could not keep a low profile at this time, otherwise he would probably be beaten and killed as a bandit and bandit, so he shouted as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village.

Immediately woke up the whole village.

The village chief brought the young and strong men to light torches, and when they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw a group of officials in official uniforms standing on the edge of the field with horses leading their horses.

The first two horses only kicked their feet under the firelight, and they looked like well-trained horses.

In general, such a good horse can be used by officials. The village chief is relieved. Although he doesn't know why the officials are here late at night, it is better than a bandit.

Well, only a little better.

The village chief stepped forward with a hunched waist, and asked in a pleasing manner, "Why did the official come here late at night, and haven't eaten yet? If you are young, you will be sent to slaughter chickens and sheep."

Wei Dong asked angrily, "Do you have sheep in your village?"

The village chief smiled flatteringly: "There are no sheep, but there are pigs, but the pork has a fishy smell. I'm afraid the officials won't be used to it."

Lieutenant Dong: "Are you afraid we won't be used to it or are you reluctant?"

Seeing that the head of the village chief was about to touch his knees, Bai Shan couldn't help frowning, and said to Captain Dong County, "Okay, don't scare him."

He turned his head to the village chief and said, "This county is the new magistrate, who came to inspect it. It's too late when we arrive at your village, so I'm going to stay here tonight. You can see who has a better house in the village and squeeze out the crowd. Just come and give us a room to rest."

He added: "You don't have to kill chickens and sheep, just boil a pot of boiling water for us. We brought dry food here."

"How can adults eat dry food..." The village chief turned his head and wanted to instruct the villagers to kill the chickens, but Bai Shan stopped him and said, "It's getting late, and now it's too late to kill the chickens and cook, we are a little tired. , After eating the dry food, I will go to sleep."

The village chief didn't ask anyone to kill chickens anymore.

He led Bai Shan and the others to live in his house. Of course, his house couldn't accommodate so many people, so he also vacated a room in the next-door neighbor's house for Wei Dong and the others.

He ate dry food with boiled water, but Bai Shan, who was sleepy, pulled the village chief and said under the moonlight, "Have the rice seeds been sown in your village?"

After a meal of boiled water and dry food, the look of panic on the village chief's face was much lessened. He could also see that the young official was very kind, although he did not understand why an official would be so kind to him and a commoner.

Man Bao washed his face and hands, and after standing for a while, he felt that the mosquitoes were flying together. He couldn't take it anymore, so he went back to the room and took out two packs of medicine, one for Bai Shan and the others, and one for the yard. A fire was lit inside and it was slowly burning, and the mosquitoes circling around the horse slowly flew away or landed on the ground with a slap and couldn't move.

The horse that had been restless and restless gradually calmed down, and finally stopped walking.

In the early morning, just after dawn, Bai Shan and Zhou Man woke up. After they had cleaned up, they stood in the yard of the village chief's house and looked around. The green hills were green and the fog was hazy. It really looked like a good place, but the village was surrounded by three. The mountain is surrounded by the middle, and the road to travel is difficult to walk.

Bai Shan flexed his muscles and said, "It looks quite similar to Qili Village."

Man Bao asked, "How is the soil quality? Are the grain yields high?"

The situation in Zhaojiagou is worse than that in Qili Village.

At least there is a road in Qili Village that can lead to horse-drawn carriages. Although the road is a little bumpy, ox carts and donkey carts can go in and out anyway, and things can be sent to the county town, which can make some extra money.

However, Zhaojiagou is not only farther from the county seat, but also more difficult to travel. I am afraid it is difficult to get out with a scooter.

Bai Shandao: "I asked about it last night. The output is average. After breakfast, I want to go see the fields in the village with the village chief. Would you like to go?"

Man Bao looked up at the mountain. When he first arrived in Zhaojiagou yesterday, Keke announced that there were five kinds of plants that they had not recorded.

She said, "Go, I'll talk to the people in the village..."

By the way, go up the mountain and dig some herbs or something.

Bai Shan nodded, stopped the village chief who wanted to kill the chicken with the knife again, and urged, "If the weather is warm, the chicken is going to lay eggs, so let's keep it. Let's take a quick breakfast and go to the field to have a look."

Man Bao asked the village chief's daughter-in-law to organize the village's smart, quick-witted men, women and children to walk them up the mountain and introduce them to the medical department.

However, they couldn't understand Mandarin very well, and the dialect Manbao they spoke couldn't understand, so they could only bring two yamen as translators.

Although Zhaojiagou is remote, it also has the advantage of being remote, that is, the herbs on the mountain are more and better than those outside.

Man Bao originally just wanted to teach them to recognize several medicinal herbs that are cool and detoxifying and can prevent heatstroke, but he didn't expect to see many other medicinal herbs on the mountain.

She couldn't even pretend she couldn't see.

So the introduction meeting of the medical department quickly turned into, "This is kudzu, Xin Liang removes the table, and can also treat waist and leg joint pain, you remember what it looks like, after digging it out and drying it, you can send it to the county to exchange money. It can be given to the medical department, or sent to the Baicaotang and Renhetang, the doctors will concoct..."

"This is Kikyo, this thing is very good, I didn't expect you to have it on the mountain, there are so many, write it down, write it down, this thing can treat sore throat..."

"This medicine is commonly used. It is easy for adults and children to get it. In severe cases, there will be fever. Moreover, the bellflower is not cheap. I will teach you to pick it. After picking it and drying it, it will be sent to the county town for money."

Not only Zhou Man had great enthusiasm for exchanging money, but the villagers also had it, so everyone looked at it with wide eyes and tried to remember their appearance in their hearts.

Man Bao also taught them to keep seeds with medicinal herbs, saying: "In a good place, you need to keep seeds with medicinal herbs, which is like keeping eggs for hatching. If you eat all the eggs, there will be no chickens to raise in the coming year. The same is true, if you want to continue this profitable business for a long time, you have to keep seeds for them..."
