The editor said that the results of this week's strong push were not good.

Jie, said that it was very helpless, but it was not enough to hit the dust.

Sometimes, it's really important to get your mindset right. The mentality of the absolute dust is like this: there are new works, and there are also masterpieces, but there are definitely very few. Although "Excellent" is very painstaking, it is put on the commercial market platform, and the mind is not to sell money. The recommendation is not good, it must be because some places are not accepted by the mainstream of this commercial market. What we need to do is not to expect to be accepted, but to accept whether we are accepted or not, and to carefully grasp the methods of acceptance. The road has just begun, "Excellent" may be regarded as a stepping stone to come here, I don't know what to give up, and I will never look forward to interests, but I will be determined to finish the book, brave the wind and waves, accumulate popularity, and strive for the future.

As evidence, let's continue to work hard. Peace of mind everyone!

========

Back to Baile Bath City, Fan Jianqiang decided to walk.

There was money in his pocket, thirty yuan, which the eldest brother stuffed into himself when he left.

When stuffing money, the eldest brother didn't tell him to "save the flowers", but secretly said "spend it all".

Thirty yuan is not a big amount, although Fan Jianqiang was poor at the beginning, he also sees it this way now.

But after the eldest brother said this, he remembered: Gu Yujiao's birthday party, why did he have to buy a gift to take it.

I didn't think about what gift to buy last night, but now I have thought about it: just that "Fireside Night Talk".

So, on the way back to Baile Bath City, he searched around for bookstores.

I visited three or four bookstores, large and small, but they all said that there was no book "Fireside Night Talk".

In the end, in an inconspicuous book and newspaper recycling store on Xiaguang Road in the city, it took a long time to find this book stained with a little dust, and after several bargains, it was finally sold for three yuan and five cents.

Before leaving, the old man from the book and newspaper recycling store wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to him with a smile: "Young man, I have been running a shop here for six years, and it is the first time I have met someone who came to my book recycling store to buy books. If it weren't for the aura that you have to read, let alone three yuan five, it's thirteen yuan five, and I won't sell it, let alone help you turn it around-"

In fact, Fan Jianqiang feels that in terms of the emotion and life meaning of this book, it can be said to be priceless!

At that moment, after smiling and thanking the old man, he returned along the way he came.

It feels really good to walk, and you can also have an intuitive understanding of this still unfamiliar Xinghua county.

Because he knows that once he walks out of Shili Village, he will not be short-sighted and slow down in Shili Town, and will soon become interested in everything in this county.

And the so-called everything, of course, is first of all the environment, but also includes humanities and folk customs.

While passing through Zhongshan Road, he found a shop, a shop that bought medicinal herbs.

What caught his attention were the pictures on the counter that were used to show the types of medicinal herbs purchased.

And one of them, the flowers and plants in the picture, are in the shape of purple-red trumpets, which is quite familiar at first glance.

However, for a while, I couldn't remember where I had seen it, and I couldn't name it.

Driven by curiosity, Fan Jianqiang walked into the store and came to the picture, intending to see the text description at the bottom of the picture.

"Young man, that's Yuanhu, also known as Yanhusuo."

Maybe he was too curious, and when he walked towards the picture, he actually ignored the existence of a middle-aged man at the door on the left.

The middle-aged man was standing next to a board, facing Fan Jianqiang, grinding the medicinal powder while introducing it.

Yuanhu? Also called Yanhuso?

Secretly thinking to himself, Fan Jianqiang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of Lao Wushan.

Could it be that when I was sitting on the broken stone wall, a few scattered flowers and plants under my feet were the medicinal herbs called Yanhusuo?

However, the middle-aged man's introduction directly denied his memory: "This Yan Husuo, the flowering period is in May, when the cotyledons are withered and dormant. Therefore, the collection period of Xishan has long passed. Now the ones I picked up and sold are all broken products. Young man, you don't look like you're here to sell Yanhusuo, but like a student who is still studying—"

According to the middle-aged man's meaning, it is now the end of July, and the cotyledons of this Yanhusuo are afraid that they have already withered.

Moreover, when he mentioned the "Xishan Harvesting Period", does it mean that Xinghua's Yanhusuo only grows in Xishan?

It is also located in Xinghua County, and the temperature difference should be very subtle, why does Yanhusuo grow in Xishan?

It doesn't make sense at all! What's more, Fan Jianqiang has always believed in his memory: it will not be wrong, the flowers and plants under the broken stone wall are the Yanhusuo in this picture.

With such curiosity, Fan Jianqiang walked towards the middle-aged man with great interest and asked with a smile: "Uncle, do you mean that this Yanhusuo only grows in the West Mountain, and the Old Wu Mountain in the north—"

"Yes, it only grows in the West Mountain, and there will be no one in the old Wushan Mountain in the north," probably because the acquisition was light, and he had a little love for this inquisitive child, the middle-aged man continued with a smile, "You kid, you will be interested in medicinal herbs, it's very special, hehe." Let's talk about this knowledge of Yan Husuo, this guy likes warm and humid climates, is very squeamish, and is most afraid of strong lights and winds. Old Wushan is a cold mountain, and when it comes to night, it is windy, and of course Yanhusuo can't grow—"

It was the first time Fan Jianqiang had heard others talk about this old Wushan, and he didn't expect someone to say that it was a cold mountain.

However, when he heard this, he seemed to be more convinced, convinced that the flowers and plants he saw on the broken stone wall were the cotyledons of this Yanhusuo.

What about weishenme? The reason is very simple, if Laowu Mountain is really a cold mountain, then the delay in flowering until July can be reasonably explained: the difference in temperature causes the flowering to be delayed.

Moreover, he had a hunch: if the few beads of flowers and plants under the broken stone wall were really Yanhusuo, then there must still be traces of it on a huge old witch mountain, and it may even be covered in a large area, but it was not discovered by the naked eye.

Yes, Fan Jianqiang has joy in his heart: if there is really a Yanhusuo on Lao Wu Mountain, and it is in the flowering period, then the opportunity to generate income for Lao Fan's family has come!

To Fan Jianqiang's surprise, after asking, the middle-aged man not only informed him of the excavation method, but also told him: ordinary Yanhusuo, a traditional precious medicinal material, can be sold for more than 10 yuan per kilogram, and high-quality ones can even be sold for nearly 20 yuan.

Regardless of more than 10 yuan, but also more than 20 yuan, it is the price of 5 yuan, if you can really dig out a batch, for the old Fan family with a shabby family, it is an absolutely considerable income!

Crossing over, not to appreciate the green mountains and green waters, nor to stick to poverty, but to reverse family fortune and reverse fate, even if it is only a trivial beginning-

***********

When Fan Jianqiang came to Baile Bath City, Jiuliang was sitting on the steps of the door with his hands and legs, and even his chin was listlessly resting on his knees.

He didn't return for eight or two nights, although it was very likely that he would live in Gu Yujiao's house, but he was still not at ease.

couldn't wait for the figure of Baliang for a long time, so he called Zhou Xiaoyan.

The call was answered by Gu Yujiao, saying that Baliang had gone back early and had been gone for almost an hour.

Jiuliang wanted to ask again, but the voice on the phone suddenly became anxious, and in turn asked a few words, and then hung up abruptly.

A few minutes later, Gu Yujiao sent a message: Zhou Xiaoyan and I have already taken a taxi and are looking for him carefully all the way.

Soon another message came: Baliang may be coming to Xinghua County for the first time, and he is not very familiar with the road! I knew that I should have sent him, and I was in a hurry! Don't run around, just wait at the door of Baile.

So, suddenly seeing Fan Jianqiang's figure emerging from the corner of the street, Jiuliang suddenly jumped up like a wolf dog, shouting: "Baliang, where have you been?" How did you get back? We're all going crazy! ”

Fan Jianqiang estimated that Jiuliang was anxious, so he hurriedly trotted up: "Hehe, I went to buy a book, intending-"

Who knows, Jiuliang grabbed it and threw it on the ground, and it was rare to have a temper: "What kind of broken books are you buying?" I thought you were gone, and your bones were softened! ”
