Chapter 40 Picking Yew Seeds
After arranging the accommodation and food of the instructors, Zhang Wolf took a team of the forest rangers into the mountain non-stop.
The qualifiers started on the day of the Double Ninth Festival, which is the third day of October in the solar calendar, and half a month has passed, and the frost is about to fall, and for the Northeast, the temperature has hovered between zero and ten degrees, and it may snow at any time.
Zhang Wolf led the forest ranger into the mountain to pick yew seeds, which are ripe in mid to late October.
The selected ranger team was very excited, carrying a gun, and followed behind Zhang Wolf with high spirits.
Although Zhang Wolf is the captain of the forest ranger, these team members can spend very little time alone with Zhang Wolf.
Just three years ago, when Zhang Wolf taught them to practice martial arts, he stayed in the forest ranger team for a longer time, and after everyone learned it, Zhang Wolf rarely went to the forest ranger team.
The forest rangers are the armed forces of Xilong Villa, and the treatment is quite good.
With a salary of more than 100 yuan per month, there is no cost for food, housing and clothing, and there is additional income.
I don't work a day, I have two days off, and my salary is several times higher than that of a worker in a big city.
Therefore, the members of the forest ranger team are full of reverence and even love for Zhang Wolf, who brought them a happy life.
In addition to patrolling, the forest ranger team also undertook the task of planting herbs in the mountains and forests, and every year Zhang Wolf would take out a part of the income from the sale of medicinal herbs to give them bonuses.
It can be said that the bonuses far exceed their salary income.
As a successful village director, how could Zhang Wolf let the mountains and forests be idle, and the mountains and forests contracted by Xilong Villa do not cut down trees, which does not mean that there is no income.
The cultivation of Chinese herbal medicine in the mountains and forests was considered when it first received the Xilong Mountains.
Precious Chinese medicinal materials are an income, hundreds of square kilometers of mountains and forests, the annual income of medicinal materials alone is not less than that of planting vegetable greenhouses, which does not count ginseng, a medicinal material that has been planted for a long time.
In the past few years, Zhang Langguang has scattered more than 1,000 catties of ginseng seeds in the mountains and forests.
It is conceivable what a great fortune this batch of ginseng is after waiting for ten or twenty years.
Xilong Villa led by Zhang Wolf, while constantly creating wealth, pays more attention to the precipitation of the heritage, a lot of wealth has been hidden by Zhang Wolf, it can be said that the hidden wealth of Xilong Villa, after 20 years, will definitely become the richest village in the world.
The wealth precipitated by Xilong Villa is incomparable to those villages and towns that have become rich overnight by selling resources.
The wealth of Xilong Villa is sustainable, and the longer it is precipitated, the more wealth is worth it.
Zhang Wolf came to Wild Boar Ridge with the first squad of the forest ranger, and not long after, the golden retriever summoned by Zhang Wolf also arrived with his own monkey monkey grandson.
Today's main work of picking yew seeds is done by monkey monkey grandchildren, led by the golden retriever.
The main task of the rangers is to bag the yew seeds picked by the monkeys and transport them back to the village.
In fact, without them coming, Zhang Wolf himself could transport the seeds back, put them in the storage ring, and bring them back easily.
However, this yew tree specially cultivated by Zhang Wolf, the crown height is more than 30 meters, the crown diameter is more than 100 meters, and the canopy is densely packed with red beans.
Anyway, in this season, the forest rangers have no other work except patrolling, and they are idle, and Zhang Wolf doesn't want to bother thinking about those excuses to cover up his secrets.
"Captain, did you find these monkeys?" Liu Quanzhi watched Zhang Wolf command the monkeys to go up the tree to pick yew seeds, and his jaw almost fell off in shock.
Not only the team leader Liu Quanzhi, but also the other team members, their eyes were about to pop out.
They knew that their captain was very powerful, his martial arts were strong, and he was also very good at making money, but that was definitely not the same thing as commanding a monkey to work.
"Yes! Such a tall tree, let you go up and pick it, I don't know when you will pick it! You can't reach the red beans on those treetops!"
"So what are we going to do?"
"You guys are in charge of bagging it down there, and then you can bring the seeds back!" Zhang Wolf said as the monkey on the tree began to throw the yew seeds he had picked down.
"Golden Retriever, tell your monkey grandchildren that the seeds are poisonous and cannot be eaten!" Zhang Wolf saw that some monkeys stuffed the picked red beans into their mouths, and hurriedly shouted.
Mature yew seeds are very small, and there is a layer of aril on the outside, which is sweet and sour, very delicious, but contains a small amount of toxins, a small amount of food is fine, and eating too much can easily cause kidney function to weaken.
"Squeak·················· Squeak!"
The monkey king golden retriever also found that his monkey monkey grandchildren had eaten it secretly, and he was immediately furious, which was simply damaging the credibility of his golden retriever, thinking that it golden retriever had cooperated with the fairy master for several years, when had he ever done anything to steal food, the angry golden retriever bared his teeth and slapped it, and did not forget to reprimand the monkey monkey grandchildren in his mouth.
After teaching his monkey grandson, the golden retriever clasped his fists with both hands and bowed to Zhang Wolf to apologize.
After being taught a lesson by the golden retriever, the monkeys were much more honest and did not dare to steal food anymore, so they honestly threw the picked yew seeds on the ground.
"It's ·················· This is also amazing!" Liu Quanzhi looked incredible.
The monkey helps to work, and it is enough to be able to hear people's words, and he still knows how to apologize, this monkey has become a sperm?
"Don't underestimate these monkeys, they're very smart! You know my monkey wine?
Zhang Wolf's monkey wine is very famous, but unfortunately except for a few old men in the village who can get a little bit every year, others can only be greedy, and he Liu Quanzhi has only drunk a glass of Zhang Qi's full moon wine.
"Captain, when can you let us taste your monkey wine again?" Liu Quanzhi swallowed his saliva and asked with a smile on his face.
"Roll the calf, you know that you are worried about my wine all day long, and you want to drink your own wine!"
"Captain, we're not monkeys, so we're going to make monkey wine?"
"What's so difficult? Monkey wine is also called Baiguo wine, when you are on patrol, you collect wild fruits in the mountains by the way, wash them and dry them, put them in the vat, pour the original pulp wine, seal them and ferment them for a winter, it is almost monkey wine. ”
"It's so simple?" asked Liu Quanzhi with some surprise.
He just tried it just now, and he didn't think that Zhang Wolf would really give him monkey wine to drink, anyway, he wouldn't suffer a loss if he tried it.
I didn't expect Zhang Wolf to tell him how to make monkey wine.
"What do you think? How complicated do you think monkey wine can be?" said Zhang Wolf laughed.
In fact, monkey wine is not complicated at all, and a search on the Internet in later generations shows that there are many ways to brew monkey wine.
