Niu male
Chapter 87
Fortunately, Xiao Shulin appeared in time, and Romon finally escaped. With Xiao Shulin joining, the rest is easy. Just help him catch it back, this girl swept the chickens with absolute advantage in speed and physical strength, only he didn't want to catch, there was nothing he couldn't catch.
"That one! The one with the yellow hair on the tail!"
"And the one next to it! The black-haired one!"
"Not that one, the other one, the feathers on the tail are upturned, that's right!"
Xiao Shulin ran rampant among the chickens, and Luo Meng was on the sidelines pointing fingers, basically picking the big ones, but some individuals with good conditions could consider staying as breeders.Cocks that are too small cannot be caught, and they have to be kept to grow. However, some roosters do not like to grow, so they should be eaten as soon as possible to avoid wasting food.
"Eat this one too?" Eight small roosters were caught in the bamboo basket, and Xiao Shulin picked up the big rooster that ran after Romon just now and asked.
"Take it away if you want." Romon waved his hand, the eight little roosters are all about the same size, and the heat can be easily controlled if they are cooked together. Although he has never studied cooking, he still knows this kind of common sense problem.
"There are a few of them in our yard, and I've been busy developing land recently, so I don't have time to take care of them."
Moreover, Boss Xiao doesn't seem to be very good at raising chickens. The good roosters in Niuwangzhuang are captured and raised by him for a while.It’s okay to kill this one and eat it right away, but such a good rooster is a great tonic, so it would be a pity to eat it casually.
"Otherwise, I'll send it to Wu Dongmei later. She wanted to buy breeder chickens from me a few days ago, but I think it's too expensive for her."
Wu Dongmei has also worked at Luo Meng's house for several months. She has always been willing to work hard. Now that she has made some money, she is not as stingy as before, but it is still a province. Most people in the village can also be considerate, so now Wu Dongmei's popularity in the village is much better than before.
After a while out of the fence, Xiao Shulin put two baskets of live chickens in the back of the car, and when they got into the car, Romon asked him, "Why are you free today?"
"I forgot to tell you this morning. I'm coming here today to transport some cow dung. I've told Uncle Quangui in advance." Now Luo Quangui and Bian Dajun are handling the cow dung in Niuwang Village every day. He doesn't care much about it, he has recently focused on the few items sold in the online shop.
"The woods are here, I thought you didn't come until the afternoon?" When he walked near the cowshed, Luo Quangui saw the two of them coming, so he put down his work and stood up, pointing to the cowshed The dozen or so baskets on the side said, "No, all the cow dung is reserved for you."
"Okay." Xiao Shulin got out of the car and put down the iron plate behind the car body.
"Hi!" Luo Quangui lowered his waist and threw a basket of cow dung onto the cart.The work in Niuwangzhuang is not light. At the beginning, Luo Quangui was worried that his health would not be able to bear it, and he would not be able to save enough money for his son to marry a wife. Unexpectedly, after a few months, his strength became stronger and stronger. People in their 50s I am stunned to feel that I can still work than when I was in my 30s.
"Uncle Quangui, take it easy, don't twist your waist." Seeing Luo Quangui doing this, Luo Meng also sweated for him.
"Don't look at my old arms and legs, I'm still strong." Luo Quangui chuckled a few times, and planned to move on to the second basket. When he saw that Luo Meng was going to move, he quickly stopped him: "That's it!" Don't touch your hands when you order something, you will smell of cow dung later, don't you still make pumpkins?"
Luo Quangui's words didn't mean flattering at all, he just thought that these baskets of cow dung could be moved by himself, and that it was unnecessary for Luo Meng to take a shower after getting all wet.
"Hey, do you want me to do this by myself?" Bian Dajun and Luo Zhifang also came over at this time. Bian Dajun had planted land in the countryside for decades, and picked up garbage in the city for several years. When I came to Niuwangzhuang, I ate well and slept soundly, and my work was also very smooth.
Needless to say, Luo Zhifang moved a large bamboo basket of cow dung, his posture and expression, just like someone carrying a box of apples and pears, and it was the kind of gift packaging, which did not seem to weigh at all.
"It's good to be the boss." Luo Meng stood idly by the side, watching his family's generals load more than a dozen baskets of cow dung onto the truck, and he couldn't help feeling a little emotional in his heart.
After the cow dung was packed, Xiao Shulin was about to go back. Luo Meng told him to send chestnut roast chicken there in the evening, and then picked up his two baskets of roosters, planning to go back to the courtyard.
"Boss, what's on the back of your butt?" Luo Meng just picked up the burden and was about to leave, when Bian Dajun suddenly said.
"What?" Luo Meng looked back, and saw that there were yellow and white spots on his buttocks, which were sticky and sticky. The girl lowered her eyes to prepare her emotions, then raised her head, and replied calmly. : "Chicken shit."
"Hahahaha! Why are you so careless?" Bian Dajun immediately laughed out of face, even the honest Luo Quangui and the taciturn Luo Zhifang also laughed.
Alas, Romon couldn't help but sighed, saying that the old society is no longer, and the boss is no longer respected by people...
While carrying the burden and walking towards the courtyard, Luo Meng resignedly took out his mobile phone and called Xiao Shulin: "Well, you can clean the passenger seat later."
"Oh, I've seen it." Xiao Shulin replied, with a faint smile in his voice.
"Okay, it's nothing, I'll hang up." It was rare that Romon said he was going to hang up so quickly.
"Come here early at night." After Xiao Shulin finished speaking and hung up the phone, the corners of his mouth twitched and twitched. Thinking of the scene where the man was being chased up and down by the rooster, he couldn't help grinning.
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Luo Meng sent the rebellious rooster to Wu Dongmei's house.
Wu Dongmei is picking up cucumbers at home right now. There are too many ripe cucumbers and tomatoes in the village these past few months, and the price is hard to sell. There are still a few days before school starts. It will get old after a long time and it will not taste good.
Fresh cucumbers are not easy to sell, so many villagers sun-dried the pickled cucumbers into dried cucumber strips, or marinated them into crispy cucumbers, and sold them online. As long as the price is good, people in the village will not bother.
"Hey, what a shame, such a big rooster!" Wu Dongmei felt uneasy when Luo Meng said that she would give this rooster to her. It's 500 yuan, so what?
"It's nothing. You grow vegetables and pickle vegetables. After school starts in a few days, there will be more steamed buns to make. Are you busy?" If they don't come, Romon will have to recruit two more people as soon as possible.
"Come on, I've already thought about it. I won't sell vegetables in the morning. Cucumbers, Chinese cabbage, and white radishes are grown in the vegetable field, which can be dried and pickled. I can do it when I'm not busy in the afternoon, and it won't affect my work in the morning. , I made a rough calculation, and I earned more than selling fresh vegetables."
Although the price given by Jiweilou is good, they are too picky. It takes a lot of effort to clean up such good vegetables, so Wu Dongmei decided not to make that money at all.Besides, selling things online is also very interesting. If someone buys her food and thinks it is delicious, they will keep praising her, which makes Wu Dongmei feel good.
"Growing vegetables is not easy." Not only do you need to pickle and dry, but you also need to grow vegetables. The vegetables in the vegetable field do not grow by themselves.
"Don't we have two dolls at home?" Wu Dongmei smiled.
"They are still studying."
"If they really want to study, they can read it anyway. If they don't want to study, it's useless to say anything. I asked them if they want to go to high school or college, and they said yes, that's fine, now Let’s start saving tuition fees, and we won’t talk about the rest.”
When Wu Dongmei said this, her two children were nearby. Her daughter Luo Qingchun was cutting cucumber strips with a kitchen knife. The younger boy put the cucumber strips his sister had cut into a basin and added Mix it with salt, and pour it into a bucket next to it. The bucket is covered with a cloth bag, and the juice will probably have to be squeezed in a while.
Wu Dongmei's eldest daughter, Luo Qingchun, will be in the first grade of junior high school in a few days. It is said that her grades are good and her personality is relatively cheerful. When she meets Luo Meng in the village, she will call him Uncle Luo Meng. She is often seen bringing her younger brother with the children in the village. Activities in the village, popularity is also good.
Her younger brother Luo Baoyin has a more introverted personality. He will be in the third grade this semester, and he always follows behind his sister, doesn't talk to people very much, and I heard that his grades are not very good, but boys are late to enlighten. It was slow to learn everything when I was young, and it is hard to say what will happen in the future.
"It's pretty good, you two."
"Hey, that's it." Wu Dongmei was also very happy to hear Luo Meng boast about her two children: "The two of them have helped me dry a lot of cucumber sticks in the past two months and made some money. They bought them , They all say that our cucumber strips are well-dried, even and clean.”
"You don't know, the siblings wandered around the cucumber strips when they had nothing to do, and they dried them in batches and harvested them in batches. When they were free, they went to have a look. They did it. Just collect it first, then dry it if it is not dry, can it be uneven when it is dried, you say, only children have this leisure time."
"Hey, you can take some back to eat in a while. The cucumbers on your Niuwangzhuang are either eaten or made into side dishes and sold in the store. Haven't you dried the cucumber sticks? Wait, I'll get some I'll put it in a bag for you, but I won't give you the crispy cucumber, it won't taste as good as yours..."
After a long time, Luo Meng came out of Wu Dongmei's yard with a big bag of cucumber sticks. Looking at the sun, it was almost time for lunch.
As for this pack of cucumber sticks, it’s really impossible for him not to accept it. Wu Dongmei is a competitive person, and she has to break everything clearly. It’s impossible for others to take advantage of her. It's not easy to let her take advantage of it. This person will feel uncomfortable. The cat scratches the cat, so he wants to find a way to return it quickly.
Luo Meng gave this pack of cucumber sticks to Hou Jun, the fat cook, and asked him to look at it. Hou Jun opened the bag and smelled it, then took out one and chewed it. He said it was good, and kept it for tomorrow's cold salad.
As usual, every meal at Niuwangzhuang is a meat dish, a vegetarian dish, and a fruit. Sometimes, a pot of pumpkin porridge or soup is cooked, especially at noon, when the summer weather is hot and the soil is wet from work. The loss is large, so drink more soup.
This afternoon, Niuwangzhuang was very lively. The new chestnuts in Niuwangzhuang and the little roosters in Niuwangzhuang were so fragrant that everyone who worked on the mountain ran to the cafeteria.
"Go back to work, it's still early for dinner."
"Just over an hour."
"Is 50 yuan enough on average? If it's not enough, you won't be able to eat a big buffalo tomorrow."
"Then what to eat?"
"Porridge."
"White porridge? I didn't say it, Lao Zhou, you are good at everything in Niuwangzhuang, but the rice is not good. If you want to cook porridge, you should cut a gourd, or get some cowpeas and cook them one by one."
"If you really want to cook it so delicious, do you still have the motivation to work?" Recently, the rice eaten in Niuwang Village is bought in the town, and it costs two yuan and five yuan per catty. It's no wonder how delicious it can be.
"Hey, do the math, let's hurry up and count how much work we have done today, if it is not enough, go out and make up for it."
After a while the chestnut roast chicken was cooked, and when Romon brought two pots in to beat it, there was another burst of protests. Just because of these two pots of chestnut roast chicken, Romon struggled to get out of the cafeteria, who the hell? It's the boss, what's wrong with the boss wanting to make two pots of chestnut roast chicken?
"Woof!" Luo Meng put two pots of roasted chestnut chicken on the car, and they rushed over from southeast to northwest immediately, and Yaya was a foodie, whimpering while running.
"Hey, wait a minute, I've made an agreement with Fatty, and I'll let him feed you later." Romon said, got on the tricycle and galloped away.
Two pots of chestnut roast chicken, one pot was unloaded by Luo Meng at his home, and the other pot was transported to the blacksmith shop.At the blacksmith's shop, Aunt Ayun and the others had just cooked a meal at this time, set up a table in the yard, and were preparing to eat.
"Mom, Uncle Luo is here." Liao Siyan, the third maid of Aunt Ayun's family, immediately yelled into the house when she saw Luo Meng coming. This summer, their family has eaten watermelons from Luo Meng's family. Sometimes they are also sold and given away, so the two sides naturally become warmer after going back and forth like this.
"I've said it all, don't call me Uncle Luo." How can this matter be settled? It stands to reason that Xiao Shulin and the three sisters must be in the same generation. If their girls call Luo Meng uncle, then they will not be inferior in the next generation. ah?
"Then why don't you call me brother? Brother and sister, it doesn't sound serious." The little girl is not very old, and she speaks like the old man Xiao Boss.
"It's really not good, you are just like those people in Niuwangzhuang, call me Lao Zhou." Zhou Papi is also better than Uncle Luo.
The little girls have been to Niuwangzhuang, and heard those city people talk about the origin of Lao Zhou's nickname. At this time, when they heard Luo Meng say this, they giggled: "Old Zhou is so generous today, he is so generous. Come here with a pot of meat."
"Swallow, don't be too big or small with your Uncle Luo Meng." At this time, Aunt Ayun came out of the house.
"He won't let me call him uncle." Sanya said immediately.
"It's true that you shouldn't call uncle. If you want to call uncle, I don't have to call him uncle. How old is he older than me?" The person who spoke was the elder sister of Ayun's family, who was already seventeen or eighteen years old. She's a big girl, her name is Liao Zhengmei, she's slim and graceful, especially when she's embroidering, she's quite ladylike, but she occasionally reveals some childishness when she speaks.
"At least ten years older." Luo Meng took the chestnut roast chicken off the tricycle and put it on the table.
"Hey, don't pay attention to them, these girls are talking nonsense, I'm spoiled by it, Yanzi, you go and get some more pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and we'll call everyone over for dinner later." As she spoke, Aunt Yun walked to the door of the couple who raised the pigeons: "Lan Yan, don't cook tonight, come eat with us. Luo Meng brought a big pot of roast chicken with chestnuts over."
"Okay, I've already fried two dishes, you go to the table first, and wait for me to serve these two dishes." A voice of answer came from the room soon.
"Hailiang and the others haven't come back yet?" Li Hailiang is Lan Yan's husband.
"Not yet, I'm working on the mountain with Xiaosun and Lao Xiao."
"Where's Lin Bo and his grandson?"
"I went up the mountain just now. I told you, mother and daughter, you don't know anything once you start embroidering flowers." While talking, Lan Yan had already come out of the house with two dishes.
"The grandson of Lin Bo's family is here too?" Luo Meng interjected at this moment.
"You don't know yet, do you? It's not your own grandson, it's your nephew's grandson, his brother's grandson, who just arrived two days ago and said he wants to open a plot of land on this mountain to plant herbs." This woman named Lan Yan, Talking and doing things are more straightforward than Aunt Ayun. After a while, she came to the table and looked very happy when she saw the pot of chestnut roast chicken: "Yo, it's such a big pot!"
"It's rare to kill a chicken, and it's the first time to pick chestnuts. I'll get some and ask you to taste it together." There were a lot of people at the blacksmith shop, so Romon hunted a little more, but his own had less. There are only five people eating at home tonight, and they can't eat much.
"I called them and told them to come back quickly."
Lan Yan made this phone call, and within a few minutes, the men working on the mountain came back, clacking and rushing around the well, and after a while, they went home and put on their vests and changed into shorts. All on the table.
Lin Bo and his nephew and grandson were refreshed, obviously not working.This grandnephew of Lin Bo looks to be about 30 years old. For a man, he is at the prime of his life. He is also tall and handsome, with a thin and artistic temperament, and he has all the conditions to be an idol star.
Looking at his attire, it's quite plain, with his grandfather's old slippers on his feet, cropped overalls, and a short-sleeved top, which is a famous brand, and probably needs a lot of red tickets.
"Ah Kuo, he is the current landlord of Niuwangzhuang, and he also contracted the land next to him. If you want to buy anything, you have to say hello to him in advance." Lin Bo said to his nephew when he was at the table.
"Hi, my name is Lin Kuo." The other party introduced himself politely.
"Romon." Romon grinned at him.
"Eat first, eat first, and we'll talk about those things after we're full." Boss Xiao stretched his chopsticks towards the pot of roasted chestnut chicken as he said.
"Yes, let's eat first." Aunt Ayun followed suit.
"Tsk, this taste is amazing! Is this what the fat man cooked?" Boss Xiao ate a piece of tender chicken, and his eyes immediately narrowed.
"Yes, is it okay?"
"No wonder, our kid tells me all day long that the food in Niuwangzhuang is delicious, saying that I'm not good at cooking, so I'll take it with this chestnut roast chicken!" There are not many things that can make Boss Xiao take it.
"This chestnut is also good. It's sweet and glutinous, and has a strong chestnut flavor. It's really delicious when cooked with this chicken. If it's too bad, I have to make some soup and bibimbap first."
It was Li Hailiang who was talking. He and Lan Yan were raising pigeons in the backyard, and he planned to open a field up the mountain to grow some food, mainly for feeding pigeons.After half a day of farm work on the mountain, I am definitely hungry. I haven’t been so hungry in many years, especially when there is such a pot of chestnut roast chicken on the dinner table, I can’t help it.
"This soup is good, don't waste it, I will also mix some, Hailiang, if you like chestnuts, eat more, I like to eat this chicken, tender and tender rooster, tsk, it is cooked thoroughly and tasty, take a bite , sticky and sticky, even the belt tendons are rotten and sticky, delicious!" Boss Xiao excitedly patted his thigh while gnawing on the chicken.
"I also like to eat chicken!" Li Hailiang said quickly, who doesn't like such delicious chicken?
"You girls, don't just watch, eat them all, hurry up, they will be gone in a while." Boss Xiao greeted Aunt Ayun's three daughters again. "I see that you are not usually so polite. What's the matter, there are many handsome guys at the dinner table, so I'm embarrassed. Don't look at him now. When he really grows the land, he will be similar to us."
"How can it be similar to you?" Erya refused to accept, how old is Boss Xiao, and how old is Lin Kuo?
"Don't look at me now, think about how many girls chased after me back then and I didn't agree, just like my son, did you see that I was a bit more handsome than him back then." Boss Xiao is now considered to be with these girls. They are more familiar, and the three girls of Aunt Ayun's family are lively, cheerful and not arrogant, and he likes them very much.
"Bragging!" Sanya spat out two words while shoveling rice into her mouth.
"What is bragging? I still have photos at home. I'll find them for you when I have time in a few days. I said, don't bother with eating. Eat meat. Come and eat with some soup and rice." Boss Xiao As he spoke, he scooped a spoonful of thick chestnut chicken soup into Sanya's bowl and asked her to mix it with the rice. After watching her take a bite, he asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"Delicious!" Sanya nodded fiercely. She usually likes to argue with Boss Xiao, but this one is really delicious.
"That's right, hahaha! The big girl and the second girl are also involved, and Ayun, don't just watch."
Boss Xiao has already fully entered the role. Luo Meng looked at Xiao Shulin, Xiao Shulin also looked at him, smiled, and said nothing, mainly because he didn't have time to talk at the moment, and his mouth was stuffed with food. Everyone else at the dinner table also buried their heads in their meals, as if they didn't see Boss Xiao being courteous to Aunt Ayun, obviously everyone has already seen it.
Looking at Aunt Ayun again, she doesn't seem to be very repulsive, but she still maintains a slight sense of distance.Basically, the future is still relatively bright, and the road is still a bit tortuous.
"Just now I saw that the sweet potato vines outside have grown very long." When the meal was half full, Romon spoke again.
"Well, he looks pretty good." Sun Linmu replied.
"A few days ago, I picked some sweet potato vines and came back to fry them. It was delicious." Lan Yan said.
"It needs to be fertilized, otherwise it will be boring if it grows. You don't have any big livestock here. If you can't do it, you can bring some cow dung to me." Planting grapes takes up a lot of space, the king of cattle Boss Xiao Zhuang probably will take up less than half of these lands by then, and his family’s cow dung has been donated, so there is not much left. Besides, when the crops grow in this field, Romon still has [-]% Well, it’s not completely free.
"So, are you sorry?" Sun Linmu looked a little awkward. He heard from people in Dawan Village that the cow dung from Luo Meng's family could grow crops, and the people in Dawan Village didn't care. They were not relatives. , how dare you take it for nothing?
"It's okay. People in the village go to pick fertilizer on Saturday and Sunday. You can go there on Friday." Romon waved his hand, saying that he doesn't care. Farming is not an easy task, especially if you don't use chemical fertilizers and pesticides. If you want to grow good crops It was even more difficult. Now that these people can come to his blacksmith shop, it is considered fate, and a little cow dung is nothing.
"Then thank you, my master. When our pigeons start to lay eggs, I will send you a few to try. I heard that the stuff can be mended." Li Hailiang said happily.
"Then when will we wait? I heard that your own pigeons will be used to incubate young pigeons first after laying eggs. You have to expand the scale, right?"
"The batch of pigeons raised well a while ago, we added another batch, now there are [-] pigeons in the pigeon cage, and [-] pigeon eggs have been laid, and they are hatching now, wait a while later, When the scale reaches a certain level, there are not many young pigeons.” Speaking of his own pigeons, Li Hailiang is also very precious.
"Hey, it's not bad, you guys! By the way, where's your dachshund?" Xiao Shulin said that their family has a dachshund now, and Romon hasn't seen it until now. , Auntie Ayun fed all the big black and little white dogs in their house, but the puppy who just arrived has not shown his face yet.
"Look at me, forget about this." Lan Yan slapped her forehead and hurried into the house. After a while, a dachshund with short limbs rushed out from the backyard. Looking for something to eat, Sanya saw it and hurriedly threw a piece of chicken to it.
"Woo..." The puppy whined while chewing the chicken, probably complaining that the owner didn't remember it until now.Lan Yan came out with the dog bowl, made half a bowl of rice with her own rice bowl, added a spoonful of chicken soup to mix it, picked up two pieces of meat, picked the bones, and poured them into its dog bowl together. As soon as the cub plunges his forehead into the rice bowl, he doesn't care about anything, just eat.
"I heard that you want to grow herbs?" The meal was almost finished, so Romon asked about Lin Kuo by the way.
"Yes." Lin Kuo nodded.
"Why did you think of doing this?" Romon asked again.
"Actually, I didn't think of it suddenly..." Lin Kuo put down his chopsticks, and started talking about himself at the dinner table. He usually doesn't talk about these things to others, but at this moment, the atmosphere at the dinner table is too harmonious and friendly , so that he couldn't help but also had the desire to talk.
Lin Kuo is 32 years old this year. He graduated from university eight years ago. In the first two years, he struggled and changed a lot of jobs. Five years ago, he joined a big company. This job is relatively easy and regular, and the salary is low Very good, so he has been working for five years. During these five years, he went to and from work every day. Except for being often forced by his family to go out on blind dates, his life can basically be said to be smooth.
A few months ago, the first contract he signed with the company was about to expire, and the same group of people who joined the company as him were in the same mood. Everyone was in the same mood, trembling, for fear that the company would not renew the contract with them. Now If you want to find a job again, the competition is much fiercer than it was five years ago, let alone finding another job with such a good salary, it is not easy.
In such anxiety, Lin Kuo suddenly realized a very serious question, does he really want to live like this, when he is 40 or 50, will he still live with fear like today?
He asked himself, after entering the society for so many years, did he have more capital than before, some capital that could make him calm and confident?No, not at all. Those so-called management skills and coordination skills are nothing but bullshit. He is just a pawn in this market economy. If people can use him, he will have a foothold. , he is an abandoned son, and what awaits him is laid-off and unemployed.
He didn't want to live like this for the rest of his life, so when the five-year contract expired, he voluntarily gave up the chance to renew it and came to the blacksmith shop.
When Lin Kuo was young, he often heard his grandfather talking about the blacksmith shop, which made him unable to help but have some fantasies about the blacksmith shop. Of course, he was already prepared to be disappointed. Maybe today’s blacksmith shop, It had already turned into a dilapidated yard overgrown with weeds, but he never imagined that his grandfather's brother had already sold the yard.
At the beginning, he was a little disappointed, but after living here with Lin Bo for a few days, he found that the current blacksmith shop is unexpectedly good, simple and simple, leaving out the hustle and bustle of the city, and the people here are quiet and peaceful. Diligent.
Lin Kuo had a dream since he was a child. He wanted to be a Chinese medicine doctor, a very good one. He knows countless kinds of herbs and can treat diseases that others can't. As long as he earns enough money to support himself, he can live happily until old age. Even if he is old, he must be a bully old man.
But as he grew up day by day, his dreams began to become blurred. He began to chase those so-called glamor and success, and indulged in that world for many years. Looking back now, those are the detours he took. long.
It seems a little too late to start now if he wants to become a genius doctor, but he can accumulate slowly, start with Chinese herbal medicine, and learn the growth habits and pharmacology of herbal medicine bit by bit. Maybe he will not be able to do so in ten or twenty years. He can become a good Chinese medicine doctor, but he hopes that he can at least become a confident medicine farmer.
Nowadays, many people say that Chinese medicine has declined, and with Chinese medicine, there is also traditional Chinese medicine. Now many Chinese herbal medicines sold in pharmacies do not have much medicinal properties, because like some valuable medicinal materials, there are not many wild ones. The truth is that traditional Chinese medicine is used as a vegetable, and Ganoderma lucidum is almost being grown into a mushroom. How can there be more medicinal properties?
Lin Kuo has decided to start with planting medicines, but he doesn't know how far this road can go. After all, his life is limited and will be restricted by many conditions, such as principal.He has also saved some money over the years, which is pretty good for his age, but if that money is thrown into the mountains, it is estimated that there will be no shadow of it.
Even so, Lin Kuo decided to go forward. Since he had already recognized the direction, why wait?
"You just want to grow medicine here at the blacksmith?" Romon couldn't help but ask after hearing what he said earlier.
"That's the only way to go at the moment." Lin Kuo has also heard about the situation at the blacksmith shop. The nearby tens of acres of land have been contracted by Luo Meng. , to give Romon [-]% of the food.
"As you just said, if you want to grow herbs according to their original growth habits, you need a lot of different terrain conditions. There is a bare hill next to the blacksmith shop. It's okay to grow sweet potatoes, but you need to plant herbs like you said. So good, one word, difficult." It wasn't that Romon deliberately poured cold water on him, it was the fact.
"If you don't have the conditions, you have to create the conditions." Lin Kuo smiled, anyway, he had already made up his mind, and he never thought about turning back.
"Otherwise, come to Niuwangzhuang." Luo Meng suddenly invited him.
"That one! The one with the yellow hair on the tail!"
"And the one next to it! The black-haired one!"
"Not that one, the other one, the feathers on the tail are upturned, that's right!"
Xiao Shulin ran rampant among the chickens, and Luo Meng was on the sidelines pointing fingers, basically picking the big ones, but some individuals with good conditions could consider staying as breeders.Cocks that are too small cannot be caught, and they have to be kept to grow. However, some roosters do not like to grow, so they should be eaten as soon as possible to avoid wasting food.
"Eat this one too?" Eight small roosters were caught in the bamboo basket, and Xiao Shulin picked up the big rooster that ran after Romon just now and asked.
"Take it away if you want." Romon waved his hand, the eight little roosters are all about the same size, and the heat can be easily controlled if they are cooked together. Although he has never studied cooking, he still knows this kind of common sense problem.
"There are a few of them in our yard, and I've been busy developing land recently, so I don't have time to take care of them."
Moreover, Boss Xiao doesn't seem to be very good at raising chickens. The good roosters in Niuwangzhuang are captured and raised by him for a while.It’s okay to kill this one and eat it right away, but such a good rooster is a great tonic, so it would be a pity to eat it casually.
"Otherwise, I'll send it to Wu Dongmei later. She wanted to buy breeder chickens from me a few days ago, but I think it's too expensive for her."
Wu Dongmei has also worked at Luo Meng's house for several months. She has always been willing to work hard. Now that she has made some money, she is not as stingy as before, but it is still a province. Most people in the village can also be considerate, so now Wu Dongmei's popularity in the village is much better than before.
After a while out of the fence, Xiao Shulin put two baskets of live chickens in the back of the car, and when they got into the car, Romon asked him, "Why are you free today?"
"I forgot to tell you this morning. I'm coming here today to transport some cow dung. I've told Uncle Quangui in advance." Now Luo Quangui and Bian Dajun are handling the cow dung in Niuwang Village every day. He doesn't care much about it, he has recently focused on the few items sold in the online shop.
"The woods are here, I thought you didn't come until the afternoon?" When he walked near the cowshed, Luo Quangui saw the two of them coming, so he put down his work and stood up, pointing to the cowshed The dozen or so baskets on the side said, "No, all the cow dung is reserved for you."
"Okay." Xiao Shulin got out of the car and put down the iron plate behind the car body.
"Hi!" Luo Quangui lowered his waist and threw a basket of cow dung onto the cart.The work in Niuwangzhuang is not light. At the beginning, Luo Quangui was worried that his health would not be able to bear it, and he would not be able to save enough money for his son to marry a wife. Unexpectedly, after a few months, his strength became stronger and stronger. People in their 50s I am stunned to feel that I can still work than when I was in my 30s.
"Uncle Quangui, take it easy, don't twist your waist." Seeing Luo Quangui doing this, Luo Meng also sweated for him.
"Don't look at my old arms and legs, I'm still strong." Luo Quangui chuckled a few times, and planned to move on to the second basket. When he saw that Luo Meng was going to move, he quickly stopped him: "That's it!" Don't touch your hands when you order something, you will smell of cow dung later, don't you still make pumpkins?"
Luo Quangui's words didn't mean flattering at all, he just thought that these baskets of cow dung could be moved by himself, and that it was unnecessary for Luo Meng to take a shower after getting all wet.
"Hey, do you want me to do this by myself?" Bian Dajun and Luo Zhifang also came over at this time. Bian Dajun had planted land in the countryside for decades, and picked up garbage in the city for several years. When I came to Niuwangzhuang, I ate well and slept soundly, and my work was also very smooth.
Needless to say, Luo Zhifang moved a large bamboo basket of cow dung, his posture and expression, just like someone carrying a box of apples and pears, and it was the kind of gift packaging, which did not seem to weigh at all.
"It's good to be the boss." Luo Meng stood idly by the side, watching his family's generals load more than a dozen baskets of cow dung onto the truck, and he couldn't help feeling a little emotional in his heart.
After the cow dung was packed, Xiao Shulin was about to go back. Luo Meng told him to send chestnut roast chicken there in the evening, and then picked up his two baskets of roosters, planning to go back to the courtyard.
"Boss, what's on the back of your butt?" Luo Meng just picked up the burden and was about to leave, when Bian Dajun suddenly said.
"What?" Luo Meng looked back, and saw that there were yellow and white spots on his buttocks, which were sticky and sticky. The girl lowered her eyes to prepare her emotions, then raised her head, and replied calmly. : "Chicken shit."
"Hahahaha! Why are you so careless?" Bian Dajun immediately laughed out of face, even the honest Luo Quangui and the taciturn Luo Zhifang also laughed.
Alas, Romon couldn't help but sighed, saying that the old society is no longer, and the boss is no longer respected by people...
While carrying the burden and walking towards the courtyard, Luo Meng resignedly took out his mobile phone and called Xiao Shulin: "Well, you can clean the passenger seat later."
"Oh, I've seen it." Xiao Shulin replied, with a faint smile in his voice.
"Okay, it's nothing, I'll hang up." It was rare that Romon said he was going to hang up so quickly.
"Come here early at night." After Xiao Shulin finished speaking and hung up the phone, the corners of his mouth twitched and twitched. Thinking of the scene where the man was being chased up and down by the rooster, he couldn't help grinning.
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Luo Meng sent the rebellious rooster to Wu Dongmei's house.
Wu Dongmei is picking up cucumbers at home right now. There are too many ripe cucumbers and tomatoes in the village these past few months, and the price is hard to sell. There are still a few days before school starts. It will get old after a long time and it will not taste good.
Fresh cucumbers are not easy to sell, so many villagers sun-dried the pickled cucumbers into dried cucumber strips, or marinated them into crispy cucumbers, and sold them online. As long as the price is good, people in the village will not bother.
"Hey, what a shame, such a big rooster!" Wu Dongmei felt uneasy when Luo Meng said that she would give this rooster to her. It's 500 yuan, so what?
"It's nothing. You grow vegetables and pickle vegetables. After school starts in a few days, there will be more steamed buns to make. Are you busy?" If they don't come, Romon will have to recruit two more people as soon as possible.
"Come on, I've already thought about it. I won't sell vegetables in the morning. Cucumbers, Chinese cabbage, and white radishes are grown in the vegetable field, which can be dried and pickled. I can do it when I'm not busy in the afternoon, and it won't affect my work in the morning. , I made a rough calculation, and I earned more than selling fresh vegetables."
Although the price given by Jiweilou is good, they are too picky. It takes a lot of effort to clean up such good vegetables, so Wu Dongmei decided not to make that money at all.Besides, selling things online is also very interesting. If someone buys her food and thinks it is delicious, they will keep praising her, which makes Wu Dongmei feel good.
"Growing vegetables is not easy." Not only do you need to pickle and dry, but you also need to grow vegetables. The vegetables in the vegetable field do not grow by themselves.
"Don't we have two dolls at home?" Wu Dongmei smiled.
"They are still studying."
"If they really want to study, they can read it anyway. If they don't want to study, it's useless to say anything. I asked them if they want to go to high school or college, and they said yes, that's fine, now Let’s start saving tuition fees, and we won’t talk about the rest.”
When Wu Dongmei said this, her two children were nearby. Her daughter Luo Qingchun was cutting cucumber strips with a kitchen knife. The younger boy put the cucumber strips his sister had cut into a basin and added Mix it with salt, and pour it into a bucket next to it. The bucket is covered with a cloth bag, and the juice will probably have to be squeezed in a while.
Wu Dongmei's eldest daughter, Luo Qingchun, will be in the first grade of junior high school in a few days. It is said that her grades are good and her personality is relatively cheerful. When she meets Luo Meng in the village, she will call him Uncle Luo Meng. She is often seen bringing her younger brother with the children in the village. Activities in the village, popularity is also good.
Her younger brother Luo Baoyin has a more introverted personality. He will be in the third grade this semester, and he always follows behind his sister, doesn't talk to people very much, and I heard that his grades are not very good, but boys are late to enlighten. It was slow to learn everything when I was young, and it is hard to say what will happen in the future.
"It's pretty good, you two."
"Hey, that's it." Wu Dongmei was also very happy to hear Luo Meng boast about her two children: "The two of them have helped me dry a lot of cucumber sticks in the past two months and made some money. They bought them , They all say that our cucumber strips are well-dried, even and clean.”
"You don't know, the siblings wandered around the cucumber strips when they had nothing to do, and they dried them in batches and harvested them in batches. When they were free, they went to have a look. They did it. Just collect it first, then dry it if it is not dry, can it be uneven when it is dried, you say, only children have this leisure time."
"Hey, you can take some back to eat in a while. The cucumbers on your Niuwangzhuang are either eaten or made into side dishes and sold in the store. Haven't you dried the cucumber sticks? Wait, I'll get some I'll put it in a bag for you, but I won't give you the crispy cucumber, it won't taste as good as yours..."
After a long time, Luo Meng came out of Wu Dongmei's yard with a big bag of cucumber sticks. Looking at the sun, it was almost time for lunch.
As for this pack of cucumber sticks, it’s really impossible for him not to accept it. Wu Dongmei is a competitive person, and she has to break everything clearly. It’s impossible for others to take advantage of her. It's not easy to let her take advantage of it. This person will feel uncomfortable. The cat scratches the cat, so he wants to find a way to return it quickly.
Luo Meng gave this pack of cucumber sticks to Hou Jun, the fat cook, and asked him to look at it. Hou Jun opened the bag and smelled it, then took out one and chewed it. He said it was good, and kept it for tomorrow's cold salad.
As usual, every meal at Niuwangzhuang is a meat dish, a vegetarian dish, and a fruit. Sometimes, a pot of pumpkin porridge or soup is cooked, especially at noon, when the summer weather is hot and the soil is wet from work. The loss is large, so drink more soup.
This afternoon, Niuwangzhuang was very lively. The new chestnuts in Niuwangzhuang and the little roosters in Niuwangzhuang were so fragrant that everyone who worked on the mountain ran to the cafeteria.
"Go back to work, it's still early for dinner."
"Just over an hour."
"Is 50 yuan enough on average? If it's not enough, you won't be able to eat a big buffalo tomorrow."
"Then what to eat?"
"Porridge."
"White porridge? I didn't say it, Lao Zhou, you are good at everything in Niuwangzhuang, but the rice is not good. If you want to cook porridge, you should cut a gourd, or get some cowpeas and cook them one by one."
"If you really want to cook it so delicious, do you still have the motivation to work?" Recently, the rice eaten in Niuwang Village is bought in the town, and it costs two yuan and five yuan per catty. It's no wonder how delicious it can be.
"Hey, do the math, let's hurry up and count how much work we have done today, if it is not enough, go out and make up for it."
After a while the chestnut roast chicken was cooked, and when Romon brought two pots in to beat it, there was another burst of protests. Just because of these two pots of chestnut roast chicken, Romon struggled to get out of the cafeteria, who the hell? It's the boss, what's wrong with the boss wanting to make two pots of chestnut roast chicken?
"Woof!" Luo Meng put two pots of roasted chestnut chicken on the car, and they rushed over from southeast to northwest immediately, and Yaya was a foodie, whimpering while running.
"Hey, wait a minute, I've made an agreement with Fatty, and I'll let him feed you later." Romon said, got on the tricycle and galloped away.
Two pots of chestnut roast chicken, one pot was unloaded by Luo Meng at his home, and the other pot was transported to the blacksmith shop.At the blacksmith's shop, Aunt Ayun and the others had just cooked a meal at this time, set up a table in the yard, and were preparing to eat.
"Mom, Uncle Luo is here." Liao Siyan, the third maid of Aunt Ayun's family, immediately yelled into the house when she saw Luo Meng coming. This summer, their family has eaten watermelons from Luo Meng's family. Sometimes they are also sold and given away, so the two sides naturally become warmer after going back and forth like this.
"I've said it all, don't call me Uncle Luo." How can this matter be settled? It stands to reason that Xiao Shulin and the three sisters must be in the same generation. If their girls call Luo Meng uncle, then they will not be inferior in the next generation. ah?
"Then why don't you call me brother? Brother and sister, it doesn't sound serious." The little girl is not very old, and she speaks like the old man Xiao Boss.
"It's really not good, you are just like those people in Niuwangzhuang, call me Lao Zhou." Zhou Papi is also better than Uncle Luo.
The little girls have been to Niuwangzhuang, and heard those city people talk about the origin of Lao Zhou's nickname. At this time, when they heard Luo Meng say this, they giggled: "Old Zhou is so generous today, he is so generous. Come here with a pot of meat."
"Swallow, don't be too big or small with your Uncle Luo Meng." At this time, Aunt Ayun came out of the house.
"He won't let me call him uncle." Sanya said immediately.
"It's true that you shouldn't call uncle. If you want to call uncle, I don't have to call him uncle. How old is he older than me?" The person who spoke was the elder sister of Ayun's family, who was already seventeen or eighteen years old. She's a big girl, her name is Liao Zhengmei, she's slim and graceful, especially when she's embroidering, she's quite ladylike, but she occasionally reveals some childishness when she speaks.
"At least ten years older." Luo Meng took the chestnut roast chicken off the tricycle and put it on the table.
"Hey, don't pay attention to them, these girls are talking nonsense, I'm spoiled by it, Yanzi, you go and get some more pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and we'll call everyone over for dinner later." As she spoke, Aunt Yun walked to the door of the couple who raised the pigeons: "Lan Yan, don't cook tonight, come eat with us. Luo Meng brought a big pot of roast chicken with chestnuts over."
"Okay, I've already fried two dishes, you go to the table first, and wait for me to serve these two dishes." A voice of answer came from the room soon.
"Hailiang and the others haven't come back yet?" Li Hailiang is Lan Yan's husband.
"Not yet, I'm working on the mountain with Xiaosun and Lao Xiao."
"Where's Lin Bo and his grandson?"
"I went up the mountain just now. I told you, mother and daughter, you don't know anything once you start embroidering flowers." While talking, Lan Yan had already come out of the house with two dishes.
"The grandson of Lin Bo's family is here too?" Luo Meng interjected at this moment.
"You don't know yet, do you? It's not your own grandson, it's your nephew's grandson, his brother's grandson, who just arrived two days ago and said he wants to open a plot of land on this mountain to plant herbs." This woman named Lan Yan, Talking and doing things are more straightforward than Aunt Ayun. After a while, she came to the table and looked very happy when she saw the pot of chestnut roast chicken: "Yo, it's such a big pot!"
"It's rare to kill a chicken, and it's the first time to pick chestnuts. I'll get some and ask you to taste it together." There were a lot of people at the blacksmith shop, so Romon hunted a little more, but his own had less. There are only five people eating at home tonight, and they can't eat much.
"I called them and told them to come back quickly."
Lan Yan made this phone call, and within a few minutes, the men working on the mountain came back, clacking and rushing around the well, and after a while, they went home and put on their vests and changed into shorts. All on the table.
Lin Bo and his nephew and grandson were refreshed, obviously not working.This grandnephew of Lin Bo looks to be about 30 years old. For a man, he is at the prime of his life. He is also tall and handsome, with a thin and artistic temperament, and he has all the conditions to be an idol star.
Looking at his attire, it's quite plain, with his grandfather's old slippers on his feet, cropped overalls, and a short-sleeved top, which is a famous brand, and probably needs a lot of red tickets.
"Ah Kuo, he is the current landlord of Niuwangzhuang, and he also contracted the land next to him. If you want to buy anything, you have to say hello to him in advance." Lin Bo said to his nephew when he was at the table.
"Hi, my name is Lin Kuo." The other party introduced himself politely.
"Romon." Romon grinned at him.
"Eat first, eat first, and we'll talk about those things after we're full." Boss Xiao stretched his chopsticks towards the pot of roasted chestnut chicken as he said.
"Yes, let's eat first." Aunt Ayun followed suit.
"Tsk, this taste is amazing! Is this what the fat man cooked?" Boss Xiao ate a piece of tender chicken, and his eyes immediately narrowed.
"Yes, is it okay?"
"No wonder, our kid tells me all day long that the food in Niuwangzhuang is delicious, saying that I'm not good at cooking, so I'll take it with this chestnut roast chicken!" There are not many things that can make Boss Xiao take it.
"This chestnut is also good. It's sweet and glutinous, and has a strong chestnut flavor. It's really delicious when cooked with this chicken. If it's too bad, I have to make some soup and bibimbap first."
It was Li Hailiang who was talking. He and Lan Yan were raising pigeons in the backyard, and he planned to open a field up the mountain to grow some food, mainly for feeding pigeons.After half a day of farm work on the mountain, I am definitely hungry. I haven’t been so hungry in many years, especially when there is such a pot of chestnut roast chicken on the dinner table, I can’t help it.
"This soup is good, don't waste it, I will also mix some, Hailiang, if you like chestnuts, eat more, I like to eat this chicken, tender and tender rooster, tsk, it is cooked thoroughly and tasty, take a bite , sticky and sticky, even the belt tendons are rotten and sticky, delicious!" Boss Xiao excitedly patted his thigh while gnawing on the chicken.
"I also like to eat chicken!" Li Hailiang said quickly, who doesn't like such delicious chicken?
"You girls, don't just watch, eat them all, hurry up, they will be gone in a while." Boss Xiao greeted Aunt Ayun's three daughters again. "I see that you are not usually so polite. What's the matter, there are many handsome guys at the dinner table, so I'm embarrassed. Don't look at him now. When he really grows the land, he will be similar to us."
"How can it be similar to you?" Erya refused to accept, how old is Boss Xiao, and how old is Lin Kuo?
"Don't look at me now, think about how many girls chased after me back then and I didn't agree, just like my son, did you see that I was a bit more handsome than him back then." Boss Xiao is now considered to be with these girls. They are more familiar, and the three girls of Aunt Ayun's family are lively, cheerful and not arrogant, and he likes them very much.
"Bragging!" Sanya spat out two words while shoveling rice into her mouth.
"What is bragging? I still have photos at home. I'll find them for you when I have time in a few days. I said, don't bother with eating. Eat meat. Come and eat with some soup and rice." Boss Xiao As he spoke, he scooped a spoonful of thick chestnut chicken soup into Sanya's bowl and asked her to mix it with the rice. After watching her take a bite, he asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"Delicious!" Sanya nodded fiercely. She usually likes to argue with Boss Xiao, but this one is really delicious.
"That's right, hahaha! The big girl and the second girl are also involved, and Ayun, don't just watch."
Boss Xiao has already fully entered the role. Luo Meng looked at Xiao Shulin, Xiao Shulin also looked at him, smiled, and said nothing, mainly because he didn't have time to talk at the moment, and his mouth was stuffed with food. Everyone else at the dinner table also buried their heads in their meals, as if they didn't see Boss Xiao being courteous to Aunt Ayun, obviously everyone has already seen it.
Looking at Aunt Ayun again, she doesn't seem to be very repulsive, but she still maintains a slight sense of distance.Basically, the future is still relatively bright, and the road is still a bit tortuous.
"Just now I saw that the sweet potato vines outside have grown very long." When the meal was half full, Romon spoke again.
"Well, he looks pretty good." Sun Linmu replied.
"A few days ago, I picked some sweet potato vines and came back to fry them. It was delicious." Lan Yan said.
"It needs to be fertilized, otherwise it will be boring if it grows. You don't have any big livestock here. If you can't do it, you can bring some cow dung to me." Planting grapes takes up a lot of space, the king of cattle Boss Xiao Zhuang probably will take up less than half of these lands by then, and his family’s cow dung has been donated, so there is not much left. Besides, when the crops grow in this field, Romon still has [-]% Well, it’s not completely free.
"So, are you sorry?" Sun Linmu looked a little awkward. He heard from people in Dawan Village that the cow dung from Luo Meng's family could grow crops, and the people in Dawan Village didn't care. They were not relatives. , how dare you take it for nothing?
"It's okay. People in the village go to pick fertilizer on Saturday and Sunday. You can go there on Friday." Romon waved his hand, saying that he doesn't care. Farming is not an easy task, especially if you don't use chemical fertilizers and pesticides. If you want to grow good crops It was even more difficult. Now that these people can come to his blacksmith shop, it is considered fate, and a little cow dung is nothing.
"Then thank you, my master. When our pigeons start to lay eggs, I will send you a few to try. I heard that the stuff can be mended." Li Hailiang said happily.
"Then when will we wait? I heard that your own pigeons will be used to incubate young pigeons first after laying eggs. You have to expand the scale, right?"
"The batch of pigeons raised well a while ago, we added another batch, now there are [-] pigeons in the pigeon cage, and [-] pigeon eggs have been laid, and they are hatching now, wait a while later, When the scale reaches a certain level, there are not many young pigeons.” Speaking of his own pigeons, Li Hailiang is also very precious.
"Hey, it's not bad, you guys! By the way, where's your dachshund?" Xiao Shulin said that their family has a dachshund now, and Romon hasn't seen it until now. , Auntie Ayun fed all the big black and little white dogs in their house, but the puppy who just arrived has not shown his face yet.
"Look at me, forget about this." Lan Yan slapped her forehead and hurried into the house. After a while, a dachshund with short limbs rushed out from the backyard. Looking for something to eat, Sanya saw it and hurriedly threw a piece of chicken to it.
"Woo..." The puppy whined while chewing the chicken, probably complaining that the owner didn't remember it until now.Lan Yan came out with the dog bowl, made half a bowl of rice with her own rice bowl, added a spoonful of chicken soup to mix it, picked up two pieces of meat, picked the bones, and poured them into its dog bowl together. As soon as the cub plunges his forehead into the rice bowl, he doesn't care about anything, just eat.
"I heard that you want to grow herbs?" The meal was almost finished, so Romon asked about Lin Kuo by the way.
"Yes." Lin Kuo nodded.
"Why did you think of doing this?" Romon asked again.
"Actually, I didn't think of it suddenly..." Lin Kuo put down his chopsticks, and started talking about himself at the dinner table. He usually doesn't talk about these things to others, but at this moment, the atmosphere at the dinner table is too harmonious and friendly , so that he couldn't help but also had the desire to talk.
Lin Kuo is 32 years old this year. He graduated from university eight years ago. In the first two years, he struggled and changed a lot of jobs. Five years ago, he joined a big company. This job is relatively easy and regular, and the salary is low Very good, so he has been working for five years. During these five years, he went to and from work every day. Except for being often forced by his family to go out on blind dates, his life can basically be said to be smooth.
A few months ago, the first contract he signed with the company was about to expire, and the same group of people who joined the company as him were in the same mood. Everyone was in the same mood, trembling, for fear that the company would not renew the contract with them. Now If you want to find a job again, the competition is much fiercer than it was five years ago, let alone finding another job with such a good salary, it is not easy.
In such anxiety, Lin Kuo suddenly realized a very serious question, does he really want to live like this, when he is 40 or 50, will he still live with fear like today?
He asked himself, after entering the society for so many years, did he have more capital than before, some capital that could make him calm and confident?No, not at all. Those so-called management skills and coordination skills are nothing but bullshit. He is just a pawn in this market economy. If people can use him, he will have a foothold. , he is an abandoned son, and what awaits him is laid-off and unemployed.
He didn't want to live like this for the rest of his life, so when the five-year contract expired, he voluntarily gave up the chance to renew it and came to the blacksmith shop.
When Lin Kuo was young, he often heard his grandfather talking about the blacksmith shop, which made him unable to help but have some fantasies about the blacksmith shop. Of course, he was already prepared to be disappointed. Maybe today’s blacksmith shop, It had already turned into a dilapidated yard overgrown with weeds, but he never imagined that his grandfather's brother had already sold the yard.
At the beginning, he was a little disappointed, but after living here with Lin Bo for a few days, he found that the current blacksmith shop is unexpectedly good, simple and simple, leaving out the hustle and bustle of the city, and the people here are quiet and peaceful. Diligent.
Lin Kuo had a dream since he was a child. He wanted to be a Chinese medicine doctor, a very good one. He knows countless kinds of herbs and can treat diseases that others can't. As long as he earns enough money to support himself, he can live happily until old age. Even if he is old, he must be a bully old man.
But as he grew up day by day, his dreams began to become blurred. He began to chase those so-called glamor and success, and indulged in that world for many years. Looking back now, those are the detours he took. long.
It seems a little too late to start now if he wants to become a genius doctor, but he can accumulate slowly, start with Chinese herbal medicine, and learn the growth habits and pharmacology of herbal medicine bit by bit. Maybe he will not be able to do so in ten or twenty years. He can become a good Chinese medicine doctor, but he hopes that he can at least become a confident medicine farmer.
Nowadays, many people say that Chinese medicine has declined, and with Chinese medicine, there is also traditional Chinese medicine. Now many Chinese herbal medicines sold in pharmacies do not have much medicinal properties, because like some valuable medicinal materials, there are not many wild ones. The truth is that traditional Chinese medicine is used as a vegetable, and Ganoderma lucidum is almost being grown into a mushroom. How can there be more medicinal properties?
Lin Kuo has decided to start with planting medicines, but he doesn't know how far this road can go. After all, his life is limited and will be restricted by many conditions, such as principal.He has also saved some money over the years, which is pretty good for his age, but if that money is thrown into the mountains, it is estimated that there will be no shadow of it.
Even so, Lin Kuo decided to go forward. Since he had already recognized the direction, why wait?
"You just want to grow medicine here at the blacksmith?" Romon couldn't help but ask after hearing what he said earlier.
"That's the only way to go at the moment." Lin Kuo has also heard about the situation at the blacksmith shop. The nearby tens of acres of land have been contracted by Luo Meng. , to give Romon [-]% of the food.
"As you just said, if you want to grow herbs according to their original growth habits, you need a lot of different terrain conditions. There is a bare hill next to the blacksmith shop. It's okay to grow sweet potatoes, but you need to plant herbs like you said. So good, one word, difficult." It wasn't that Romon deliberately poured cold water on him, it was the fact.
"If you don't have the conditions, you have to create the conditions." Lin Kuo smiled, anyway, he had already made up his mind, and he never thought about turning back.
"Otherwise, come to Niuwangzhuang." Luo Meng suddenly invited him.
