Chapter 472 Staying in the Mountain Overnight

Chapter 472 Staying in the Mountain Overnight

……

The next day, Qin Xiaomi didn't get up until morning.

Jiang Dalang got up at about half past the hour of Mao and spent half an hour planting the perilla he had dug up yesterday.

The Qin family's front and back yards are lined with various things.

When Qin Xiaomi got up, Jiang Dalang was watering the perilla seedlings. Seeing her, Jiang Dalang smiled brightly and said, "Good morning, Xiaomi."

Then he asked, "Are you feeling unwell? Are your legs and feet hurting?"

After walking on the mountain road for a whole day yesterday, he was worried that she couldn't handle it.

Qin Xiaomi shook her head: "It's nothing uncomfortable."

The people in the west of their village practice martial arts every day, so after walking in the mountains for a day, they won’t feel too uncomfortable the next day.

"Thank you for your hard work. Go and have breakfast." Qin Xiaomi said, and went to wash up and have breakfast.

Not long after the meal, Doctor You, Huang Yanglong and others arrived at the west of the village.

Doctor You was in high spirits and still excited about going up the mountain to look for medicinal herbs.

Huang Yanglong looked visibly haggard, and had little interest in going up the mountain.

"Master Huang, if you really can't hold on, don't go up the mountain today, otherwise you will ask to come down when you reach halfway up the mountain." Qin Xiaomi said to him sarcastically.

Huang Yanglong could not stand being provoked, and he immediately shouted, "Who are you looking down on, daughter of the Qin family? Isn't it just going up the mountain to look for medicinal herbs for three days? Back then, I went into the water to look for pearls for a month straight, which was many times more tiring than looking for medicinal herbs!"

"Okay, since everyone is not tired, let's gather and go up the mountain." Qin Xiaomi looked at Qin Ying.

Dangdang Dangdang!

Qin Ying immediately struck the gong and shouted, "Everyone, gather... report the number of people... gather!"

"Today's route is to go into the forest first, see the pine resin, then go around to the south side of the mountain, go deep into the mountain from the south, and then go down the mountain from the north to go home!"

After saying this, he looked at Uncle Qin with trepidation.

As a result, Uncle Qin scolded him again: "What are you looking at me for? If you think you are not wrong, then just set off!"

"Oh... let's set off into the mountains!" Qin Ying turned around, carrying the strange flag on his back, and led the way for everyone.

The team first went to the forest where pine oil was cut yesterday and took the pine resin that dripped into the wooden bowl.

"How heavy is it?" Qin Xiaomi asked.

Xunzi, Xiao Mutong, Xiao Baiying and Xiao Shanglu all studied medicine. The hands they used to grab the medicine were like scales. They would weigh the wooden bowl first, and after they had an idea of ​​its weight, they would weigh the wooden bowl and the pine resin together.

After a while, Xiao Baiying took the lead in giving a weight: "Young master, the pine resin of this tree is about one tael and six qian."

"Master Qin, this one of mine is worth about one tael and four qian." Xunzi said.

"Young master, the pine resin of this tree is one tael and eight cents!" Xiao Mutong shouted from a distance.

It took half a quarter of an hour to get the resin output of twenty trees.

Qin Xiaomi was very satisfied and sighed again: "The plants here are really good and grow better than in many other places."

The quality of madder is better than modern ones and those from the Great Sheng Dynasty.

The resin output of Pinus tabulaeformis is also higher than that of modern times and the Great Prosperity Dynasty.

Modern Pinus tabulaeformis is considered good if it can produce one or two ounces of pine resin a day.

The highest resin yield of Pinus tabulaeformis during the Great Sheng Dynasty was only about one liang and four qian.

However, in the Wei Dynasty, the resin yield of Pinus tabulaeformis in the northeastern region, where the weather was not so cold, reached an astonishing one tael and eight qian... The resin yield of one tree was equivalent to that of two trees in modern times.

"I really made the right decision to buy this mountain." Qin Xiaomi once again felt like she had found a treasure.

Uncle Qin and his wife immediately flattered her: "My little niece, you are a blessed person. All the good things in the world will naturally line up to see you."

"But my niece, you are still young and need to rest and grow. I dare not take care of too many things... How about this, your uncle and aunt will help you manage the output of the back mountain, so that you can earn countless silver without any effort."

Qin Xiaomi chuckled: "What a coincidence, Aunt Liu said the same thing to me this morning."

"What? Sixth cousin came to you?" Uncle Qin was anxious: "Don't listen to her, she is an old country woman, what does she know? Besides, she is from a different family than us, and in two generations, she will be five generations away. But my husband and I are half of your parents. Since your parents are gone, we are your blood relatives who can arrange a marriage for you."

Qin Xiaomi thought they were talking nonsense and said to Jiang Dalang and the others, "Take the twenty trees that have already been cut and cut them again on the original cuts."

After the resin solidifies, the incision will no longer flow out of the resin, and it will have to be cut twice a day to allow the resin to continue to flow out.

"Yeah." Jiang Dalang responded, drew his knife and went to work.

Soon, after they had cut down twenty trees, they set off again.

It goes through the woods and around to the south side of the mountain.

The southern side of the mountain is a bit far from here. It took the team a full half hour to reach the southern side of the mountain. This shows how big the mountain behind the ghost village is.

"Let's start walking deep into the south of the mountain!" Doctor You led everyone, looking for medicinal herbs as they walked.

The sunlight on the south side of the mountain was more sufficient, so that day, although they did not walk as far as yesterday and 30% of the herbs were repeated, they still found 40 new herbs!

Among them, there are eight kinds of high-quality medicinal herbs that cost more than 20 cents per pound.

That day, Doctor You was unwilling to go down the mountain until dark.

When he returned to the village, he was scolded again by Grandpa Qin, Grandma Qin and Guan Shuli.

Doctor You listened to the advice with an open mind and repeatedly assured that he would be in the village before dark tomorrow.

……

But the next day, when they were about to go down the mountain, Doctor You suddenly said, "Master Qin, Brother Qin, Master Huang, you go back down the mountain first. We, Master and I, want to walk up to a higher place for half a day and then go down the mountain tomorrow."

what?

Qin Ying was stunned: "Doctor You, we agreed not to spend the night in the mountains."

Why did you change your mind?

Doctor You smiled embarrassedly: "Indeed, we have agreed on this, but plans are not as good as changes... Anyway, it's the last day, so let me be unrestrained for once."

"In fact, we have been wandering in the shallow mountains for the past three days, but the medicinal treasures in the back mountains are so rich that I would not be willing not to go deep into the mountains to try them out."

He also said that since there were no valuable herbs, the pharmacy might not be willing to make a big investment here: "There must be valuable herbs in this mountain. We must find one or two to convince the boss of our pharmacy to invest money and people here."

Finally, he even wrote a letter of disclaimer on the spot: "If anything happens to us in the mountains, we will be responsible for it ourselves. It has nothing to do with you. You don't have to bear any responsibility for us."

You Yu disagreed: "Doctor You, my father said that the medicine-seeking team cannot stay overnight in the mountains. You must go down the mountain with me."

"No, if you don't agree, we master and disciple will stay in the mountain by ourselves, and you and Qin Xiaodong and the others will go down the mountain." Doctor You was very determined and even started to play tricks.

He was so different from the usual Doctor You that even You Yu was a little stunned.

Huang Yanglong's eyes lit up, and he looked like he was saying, "Take me one, take me one, and I'll stay in the mountain too!"

Doctor You was too determined, and everyone was afraid that the master and his disciples would go into the mountains without permission, so they had no choice but to compromise.

But for safety reasons, the people who stayed in the mountains were redistributed.

Except for Youyu and You Dafu and their apprentice, Huang Yanglong, Xiaobai, Huang Laowu, Xue Feng, Xu Erjun and Xiao Mutong all stayed in the mountains.

Most of them are good at martial arts, so if anything happens, they are capable of dealing with it.

Originally, Qin Xiaomi wanted Jiang Dalang to stay. After all, he was skilled in martial arts and familiar with the terrain of the mountains. He would be more useful if something happened.

But Jiang Dalang disagreed and insisted on accompanying her down the mountain and going home... The only thing he had to do in this life was to protect her, and he didn't care much about the life and death of other people.

"Doctor You, you must be careful at night. We will go down the mountain now." Qin Xiaomi said.

"Don't worry, we are veterans in searching for medicine in the mountains. We know how to spend the night safely in the mountains. You guys should come down quickly and have a safe journey!" Doctor You was smiling and couldn't wait to let them go down the mountain.
