Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

Liu Hongjun had just picked out two large handfuls of Gastrodia elata on his side. On the other side of the mountains and rocks, he also picked out seven or eight Gastrodia elata.

Liu Hongjun raised his head and continued to look for Gastrodia elata.

Suddenly, at the base of an oak tree not far ahead, there was a bright orange-red cluster, with overlapping pieces. At first glance, it looked like a rooster's comb, which attracted Liu Hongjun's attention.

This is a clump of arborescens, a big clump of arborescens.

The tree chicken mushroom is a specialty of Changbai Mountain and a very precious mountain delicacy.

Because it looks like a rooster's "cockscomb" and tastes like chicken breast, people in the Changbai Mountains call it tree chicken mushroom.

Immediately, Liu Hongjun smiled bitterly again.

The best time to pick tree mushrooms is April or May. At this time, it is already a bit late. Changbai Mountain has entered late autumn.

At this time, the tree mushrooms have become very woody and cannot be eaten.

In the end, Liu Hongjun gave up on the tree mushroom because he found two more Gastrodia elata plants next to the oak tree.

The gastrodia elata in this season has begun to wither and is mixed in the bushes. It is difficult to find it without looking carefully.

After finding two Gastrodia elata plants, Liu Hongjun knelt on the ground and began to dig up the Gastrodia elata attentively.

"Brother Hongjun, I found five more Gastrodia elata plants here!" Dashan shouted excitedly to Liu Hongjun.

"I also found three plants here!" Stone's voice came quickly.

"Hurry up and dig! This is all money!" Liu Hongjun replied.

Then he warned again, "Look carefully, maybe there are some around here."

"Yeah!" Dashan and Shitou agreed, and they were busy digging Gastrodia elata.

Under each Gastrodia elata plant, there is a large nest of Gastrodia elata cubs, at least four or five big cubs, and some small ones remaining.

After Liu Hongjun dug out two Gastrodia elata plants, he slowly searched around with these two Gastrodia elata plants as the center, digging through the grass and searching carefully.

After a while, I found five more Gastrodia elata plants.

"Brother Hongjun, there are too many Gastrodia elata, what should I do if I can't put it down?" Dashan found Liu Hongjun and asked with a tangled face.

Just after digging platycodon, the baskets of three people were already full. Now each person has dug more than 20 gastrodia elata, and there is no room to put them.

Let the mountains and rocks throw down the platycodon, but they are reluctant to let it go.

Although platycodon is very cheap, they have worked hard to dig it out.

Liu Hongjun took out two sacks from his backpack, threw them to Dashan, and said: "Put the Platycodon grandiflorum into the sacks, and then put the Gastrodia elata into the basket."

"Okay!" Dashan agreed, took the sack to dump, and put Platycodon into the sack. Three platycodon bags were packed into exactly two sacks.

Then he put the Gastrodia cubs into the backpack.

After Liu Hongjun dug out five Gastrodia elata plants, he found two more bushes of arborescens. Unfortunately, the season was wrong. As the elata grow old, they will become like wood, very woody and unpalatable.

Therefore, Liu Hongjun could only give up with regret, then remember this position and come back next spring.

From these few bushes of chicken mushrooms this year, there will definitely be many, many baby bushes of chicken mushrooms next year.

If you can't eat the mother tree chicken and mushroom, then you'll have to wait to eat her children.

After digging two more Gastrodia elata plants, Liu Hongjun was ready to end the work of digging Gastrodia elata for the time being. He raised his wrist and took a look. It was already one o'clock. He had to eat first and then continue after eating.

"Dashan, Shitou, eat first, then continue after eating!" Liu Hongjun shouted loudly.

Although the trees on this hillside are somewhat sparse, the shrubs are very dense. The three of them were digging Gastrodia elata in the shrubs and could not see each other at all.

I can only shout loudly.

"Coming!" the mountains and stones responded from the bushes.

Carrying the backpack back to the edge of the pond, the bonfire had been extinguished, leaving only some sparks and smoke.

Liu Hongjun opened fire and then pulled out the mud ball of the beggar's chicken.

Break open the mud ball to reveal the tender pheasant meat inside, and the hot chicken gives off a rich aroma.

After digging through the mud, Liu Hongjun turned around and washed his hands in the nearby pond. He took out the wild onions he had just pulled out and washed them clean.

This pond is living water. The mountain spring flows into the pond, and then flows from the pond to the foot of the mountain, and finally merges into Yangmugou.

At this moment, Mountain and Stone also came over carrying baskets on their backs.

"Go wash your hands and eat!" Liu Hongjun greeted with a smile.

Liu Hongjun took out the single cake he had prepared in advance from his backpack.

Wrap wild onions in a single pancake, then tear off a chicken wing, take a bite of the pancake, eat the chicken wings, and eat deliciously.

After washing their hands, Dashan and Shitou also sat over and took out the dry food they had brought with them from their respective backpacks.

Liu Hongjun took a look and saw that it was a mixed noodle pancake.

Not everyone is like him who is willing to eat a single loaf of white flour.

Liu Hongjun didn't say anything else, he just tore off the two chicken legs and handed them to Dashan and Shitou, "Here, I'll reward you!"

"Why reward us?" Dashan and Shitou were a little confused.

Shi Shi took a slingshot and shot four wild ducks, and was rewarded with a chicken leg.

Dashan discovered Gastrodia elata and rewarded him with a drumstick. Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

"No, no, we followed you into the mountains, Brother Red Army, and we already took advantage. You eat chicken legs, and we just eat some other meat!" Dashan and Shitou waved their hands.

"Okay, don't refuse, here it is, just take it!

Eat quickly, I feel there is still a lot of Gastrodia elata in this piece. Let’s get back to work after eating! "Liu Hongjun gave the chicken legs to two people.

"Yeah!" Dashan and Shitou then took the chicken legs and ate them deliciously.

"Brother Red Army, this pheasant meat is so delicious!" Dashan said happily with his mouth full of oil.

"Haha! Follow me from now on, I'll make you tired of eating chicken legs!" Liu Hongjun said.

The three of them ate a pheasant among themselves, then each drank some water, and then got up to work without resting.

After the Gastrodia elata is dried, it costs two or three yuan per pound, which may not sound like much, but how much does one worker cost in seven or eight years?

Even for workers in the city, the average salary is just over 50 yuan.

(Don’t be stubborn, this is the same as later generations, most of them are the ones who are averaged.)

They had just been digging for a while, and the three of them together dug out almost a hundred kilograms of gastrodia elata. After drying, it would weigh about twenty or thirty kilograms, which was four and a half yuan.

It’s almost catching up with the average salary of urban residents.

The three returned to the place where they found Gastrodia elata and continued to search for Gastrodia elata.

Soon, Liu Hongjun discovered another Gastrodia elata.

Good guy, this Gastrodia elata plant is really not very tall, it is more than two meters high.

You know, the average Gastrodia elata is only seventy or eighty centimeters tall, and some artificially cultivated ones are only about one meter tall.

This Gastrodia elata is considered a giant among Gastrodia elata.

If it hadn't been for Liu Hongjun stepping on it, he would have almost ignored it.
