Farmer sister: Escape from wilderness and farm with Lingquan space

After eating the meat of the King of the Mountain a few days ago.

That night, everyone ate Xiong Xiazi's meat again, which even rich families might not be able to eat.

Qiao Ran also gained a bear skin, a bear bile, and two pairs of bear paws.

These are all good things. If you sell them in the city, they will be worth not only 1,800 taels, but at least 3,500 taels of silver.

If you meet a rich family who likes to hunt for novelties, it is not impossible to spend more than a thousand taels.

Bear bile is also a traditional and valuable traditional Chinese medicine with very high medicinal value.

It is used to extract bile, which can reduce fever and clear the heart, calm the liver and promote gallbladder, dissolve stones and improve eyesight, lower lipids and blood pressure, relieve cough and asthma, reduce inflammation and kill insects, etc. She keeps it for future medicinal use.

There is no shortage of meat in the Qiao family now, so everyone is reluctant to eat this rare bear paw.

Mrs. Qiao used cover and asked her eldest granddaughter to put all these in her treasure bag and sell them to wealthy families in the city if she had the chance.

Now in Qiao Ran's space, there are bear skins, tiger skins, wolf skins, rabbit skins, wild dog skins, raccoon skins, sheepskins, snake skins...

There are furs of almost all kinds of animals, and they are all wild animals that she, her second uncle, her third uncle, and Xiaodong hunted.

Qiao Ran decided to tan these animal skins into leather and fur, which can keep her family warm when the weather is cold.

Dogskin hats, rabbit fur scarves, sheepskin boots, and wolfskin jackets are all available to everyone. You can also make a few fox-skin cloaks for your grandma, mother, and third aunt.

Tiger skins and bears skins can also be used as quilts for grandma and a few little ones. They will definitely be very warm.

In fact, she doesn't have to take out the clothes in the small space courtyard. Clothes made of these animal skins are enough to keep warm.

However, she is still used to wearing light and warm down jackets and woolen coats. She doesn't like these fluffy and bloated fur coats.

During the night break, while everyone was asleep, Qiao Ran entered the space again.

She first went to the sheep pen in the yard to see the little white tiger.

The little white tiger has opened its eyes, crawls very neatly, and is already very familiar with the dairy goat.

Qiao Ran simply put it in the sheepfold and stayed with its nanny.

The dairy goat had just given birth to two lambs not long ago. It was a time when maternal love was overflowing. She did not reject the little white tiger, which was obviously not her own child, and generously let it nurse with her two children.

After feeding the dairy goat some grass and spiritual spring water, Qiao Ran went to look at the large pile of animal skins she had stored in the warehouse.

She had learned how to tan animal skins from her grandfather.

Although she has never tanned the fur of protected animals such as tigers, bears, and wolves, the rabbits in her mountains are all raised freely by her family. Sometimes when eating rabbit meat, she will peel off the rabbit fur, tan it, and then sew it. Made into warm rabbit fur gaiters and hats.

Qiao Ran went into the dispensing room to prepare the potion and began to tan the animal skins.

The first step in tanning animal skins is pickling.

There was no special acid soaking tank at home, so she filled the bathtub in the bathroom of her parents' bedroom with water, and then poured a bag of coarse salt into the water at a ratio of 1:150.

While pouring the salt, Qiao Ran couldn't help but wonder, if her grandma and mother knew that she wasted such precious salt, would they sadly call her a prodigal?

Thinking about it, she couldn't help but laugh.

In ancient times, salt was indeed very precious. Most people were reluctant to add more salt when cooking, and there were no other seasonings. The food they cooked was just good enough to be eaten, and it didn't matter whether it was delicious or not.

But in my previous life, a pack of salt cost one or two yuan, and I didn’t feel any pain at all when using it. I could use it as I wanted.

If they knew that these real fur coats and fur coats made of fur could be sold for thousands or tens of thousands of yuan each in modern times, which is equivalent to dozens or hundreds of taels of silver, they might be even more shocked and would not be willing to part with these clothes. Let's wear it?

While she was thinking wildly, her hands did not stop moving.

After rubbing the coarse salt and stirring it to dissolve it in the water, Qiao Ran dropped 50 ml of formic acid solution into the water, stirred it and dissolved it in the water.

Then, the dried animal skin can be soaked in the acid soaking tank.

Qiao Ran selected a tiger skin, two wolf skins and two sheep skins and put them into the bathtub to ensure that the water could cover the skins of these animals.

After doing this, it's already getting late.

Qiao Ran had no choice but to exit the space and continue sleeping.

It's a pity that time in one's own space cannot be accelerated or delayed like other people's spaces. As long as it passes inside, so much time passes outside.

But this is good, as it won't mess up the time.

After leaving the space, Qiao Ran thought before going to bed that the weather was getting colder, so she asked the villagers to hunt more prey and use animal skins to make clothes and shoes to keep warm.

Otherwise, they would be the only ones wearing warm clothes and shoes, and it would be a shame to watch others suffer from the cold!

The next morning, Qiao Ran found the village chief and told him her suggestion. She also said that she could teach everyone how to tan leather, and after it was tanned, it could be used to make clothes and shoes.

This way, everyone doesn’t have to worry about running out of clothes and shoes when the weather gets cold.

After hearing this, the old village chief clapped his hands excitedly: "Oh! What a great idea! We all brought too many things with us when we came out, and we didn't even bring many winter clothes. If the temperature suddenly drops, it will be very difficult in this mountain. It’s going to freeze to death.”

"Then let's do this. While we are still in the mountains, where there are many wild animals, we should walk faster during the day and stop early in the evening to rest, so that the men can go into the woods to hunt more prey and come back."

"The meat of the prey is used to make dried meat to eat on the road, and the fur is tanned according to the method you taught and used to make clothes and shoes, so that you don't have to freeze when the weather is cold!"

The excited old village chief immediately banged the gong, called the heads of each family, and told everyone Qiao Ran's suggestion.

"What? Is there such a good thing? That's great! I'm worried that I don't have enough clothes for winter at home!"

"Yes! This is really a timely help! We were worried, and the girl from the Qiao family gave us such a big surprise. She is such a good person!"

"I heard that clothes and shoes made of animal skin are very comfortable and warm! There is a hunter in my wife's natal village. His family is not afraid of the cold every winter because the whole family has warm fur coats and leather boots to wear. On snowy days, other families are warming up over the fire at home, but his children are still running around, playing and having snowball fights in the snow!"

"After learning this, we can also wear warm fur coats and leather boots for our family members in the future!"

When they heard that it was such a good thing, everyone was naturally very happy.

The weather is getting colder and colder these days, and they are also worried.
