Chapter 6 Into the Mountains and Cutting Bamboo
【Broadcast】Pay attention to "Biquge www.biquge.info Reading", get the first-hand news of 515 red envelopes, and students who have not grabbed red envelopes after the Chinese New Year can show their skills this time.
Due to the summer vacation, the students in the township are at home during the holidays, unlike the city, there are not many places for them to have fun and play, and they also need to help the family share the farm work, which is also half a labor force.
Some of the students in the team entering the mountain this time are these students, the youngest is less than ten years old, following behind the parents, and the eldest is fourteen or fifteen years old, and several of them are still students in Luzhen Middle School.
Yunli comes from a big city, and is a student of a prestigious university, he is humorous in class, and often tells them some interesting things outside, not as strict as other teachers, and is very popular with students in school.
It didn't take long for him to fall behind the line when he was surrounded by several students asking for interesting stories.
"Teacher Yun, I heard them say that you won't be teaching in middle school next semester, is it true?" A handsome and tall girl next to her asked with concern.
The girl's name is Huang Yanli, she is a student in Luzhen Middle School, she has taken Yunli's class, she is also a learning representative, her grades are very good, after the summer vacation, she will go to the high school in the county to continue her studies, her parents are farmers in the village, and they are also in the team this time.
"Is this still fake? Now the entire Xiaolushan has been contracted by the teacher, and being the boss by himself is better than being a teacher. ”
Before Yun Li could answer, a male student wearing a peaked cap next to him expressed his opinion. Perhaps realizing that there was another teacher in the field, after saying this, he looked around weakly to make sure that he was not heard by another teacher, and then he took a long breath, which looked very funny.
"What's wrong with being a teacher, if I can be admitted to university in the future, I'll go to study teacher training." Huang Yanli disagreed with the male student's opinion, and muttered to herself.
Yunli listened to the students' chatter and didn't talk much, in his opinion, it doesn't matter what you do, what matters is what you work for, which is exactly the direction you yearn for in your heart, and it is worth it.
It's just that when they were talking about college, Yunli glanced back at Lu Ci who was following the back of the line, and didn't know which school she was studying in before she dropped out and what major she studied.
He didn't listen to Xu Ping and Brother Chen's advice, but decided to help Lu Ci, the blue cloth fluttering on the roof of the small building was exactly what he hung up yesterday, which was a kind of agreement between the two of them.
No one wants to get into trouble, even if it's potential, but sometimes, in order to avoid trouble, they go against their will, which is unacceptable to Yunli.
Looking back on my past, it is also with the help of many people that I have achieved today's achievements. Yunli originally wanted to become a teacher, but also out of the original intention of giving back to the society, although the way has changed, but the original intention has not changed in the slightest. Not to mention what Cheng Cheng can help Lu Ci, but at least she can't kill those opportunities that can make her change.
The western part of the mountain is still desolate, with occasional bushes or scattered fruit trees, and the area is very water-scarce, with no water sources around. Drilling wells will not work, how to transform is a problem, although Yunli has a magical electromagnetic force, but the growth of plants, no matter what, can not lack water.
Moreover, this area is mostly hilly and gently sloping, and there is a lack of water, which really makes Yunli a headache, but now that the funds are limited, it is better to concentrate resources to make good use of the land in the south first, lay a solid foundation, and then make plans.
The distance was not far, but because everyone was carrying tools and some were pulling carts, it took a lot of time to come to the area where the bamboo forest is located, the junction of Xiaolu Mountain and Banlu Mountain.
Different from the desolation of Xiaolu Mountain, the area from here to the west is dense jungle, and there are several bamboo forests alone, and under the leadership of Xu Ping, everyone began to choose their own locations and cut down suitable bamboo.
As far as building a bamboo building is concerned, it is generally necessary to choose the kind of bamboo that has enough growth year, uniform size, straight trunk and no damage.
Brother Chen came this time to help Yunli find bamboo suitable for doors and windows, this kind of bamboo actually has no special requirements, the most important point is to cater to the craftsmanship habits of craftsmen, which can make satisfactory finished products.
When he agreed to help Yunli design the drawings of the bamboo building, Brother Chen knew that it was not as simple as drawing a drawing, but for each craftsman, it was also a very pleasant thing to be able to participate in the construction of his own design, not to mention that the owner of the bamboo building was very compatible with him.
Bamboo is very tough, and it is difficult to break it with brute force alone, so farmers use saws to cope with it. Two people each hold one edge of the saw, then press the blade against the bottom of the root, and then work together to see back and forth, and soon a wrist-thick bamboo can be put down.
Bamboo likes to grow together one by one, which is conducive to them to grasp the roots and stabilize the soil, resist the strong wind, farmers will not cut down the whole clump of bamboo at one time, without destroying the bamboo bushes, cut the required bamboo, to ensure the sustainability of the entire ecology.
When the bamboo falls, the women and children break off the branches from the bamboo, and then carry the bamboo to a cart, and when there is enough to collect a cart, several people work in groups to transport the bamboo back.
Yunli followed Brother Chen, shuttling around the bamboo forest, looking for suitable bamboo materials.
"That's it, the arches in the hall depend on it." Brother Chen pointed to a bamboo tree in front of him that was entangled in wild vines, and couldn't help but say with joy.
Looking in the direction pointed by Brother Chen, there is a patchwork of wild vines, which looks like a blanket from a distance, and if you look closely, you can find that under the emerald green vines, there are a few bent bamboos, tenaciously supporting this green "blanket".
Under the instructions of Brother Chen, the two of them pushed aside the vines wrapped around the bamboo, and Brother Chen chose one of the bamboos with the greatest bend, but not the slightest damage, and under the combined efforts of the two, the bamboo was quickly sawed down and placed on the board car specially reserved by Brother Chen.
"This kind of bamboo is called false bamboo in our place, compared with normal bamboo, the bamboo node will be much shorter, and the length is not as high as the average bamboo, but the toughness is excellent. Like this one, when the bamboo shoots are converted into new bamboo, they begin to be entangled by these old vines, and they have been bent until now, and when they go back and bake and process, they can make a beautiful round arch bamboo frame. ”
In the field he is good at, Brother Chen talks eloquently and teaches Yunli a lot of related knowledge.
Then, Brother Chen found a few more suitable bamboos nearby, all kinds of shapes and varieties, Yunli didn't know where they would be used, but looking at Brother Chen's happy expression, he knew that this time he had a great harvest.
There was a lot of bamboo needed to build a bamboo building, and this time I had to prepare enough bamboo to build a storage warehouse, but with the efforts of everyone, I quickly collected enough bamboo. The rest of the work is to transport them all back to the small building, and those selected by Brother Chen are also bundled together and transported back.
After cutting the bamboo, everyone is still looking around in the bamboo forest in order to collect more bamboo shoots.
Bamboo shoots are a very important cash crop in southwest China, although it is not the best season to produce bamboo shoots, but in the bamboo forest, you can still find a lot of bamboo shoots that have just emerged.
Many kinds of bamboo shoots can be eaten, here in Luzhen, everyone is collectively called small wild bamboo shoots, the growth rate of bamboo shoots is very fast, under the right conditions, unearthed in less than a day, can grow to the height of a child.
Only the top of the bamboo shoots are suitable for eating, so when they are just unearthed, they have to be picked, bamboo shoots are also a popular delicacy here, with meat, while fresh, it is a very homely practice.
After the bamboo shoots are dehydrated and dried, shredded and cooked, and then pressed and dried, they can be made into shelf-stable dried bamboo shoots, which are excellent pairings for boiling soup and making tea.
Pickled bamboo shoots, there are many methods, each has different tastes, and the pickled bamboo shoots are not the same, sour, spicy, salty, and fresh these tastes can be integrated into bamboo shoots according to preferences and made into pleasant appetizers.
Yunli also likes bamboo shoots a lot, which can be eaten everywhere in Luzhen, but he has never cooked it himself, and he can't even cook a decent meal, which really makes him very ashamed.
Next, some of the farmers continued to go into the mountains in search of wild treasures, so the people dispersed on the spot.
Xu Ping did not join the ranks of entering the mountains, and he still had farm work to do at home, so he returned with the last batch of bamboo.
Yunli had already handed over the farmers' wages to him in advance, and asked him to distribute them on his behalf, and if there were trucks to help, he would have to add some additional wages, which he also had to count well, and there could be no omissions.
Of course, Yunli wants to continue to enter the mountain, and he has been looking forward to this for the past few days, and Brother Chen knows his temperament, so he has no choice but to accompany him.
It is not a simple matter to travel in the mountains and forests, the terrain is complicated, and there is no fixed road, if you don't have enough experience, you often have to suffer a big loss, so under the mention of Brother Chen, the two of them joined the team of Huang Yanli's family.
Huang Yanli's parents are both farmers in the village, an authentic and simple farmer family, and her father is a straightforward man with thick eyebrows, named Huang Damin. 's mother is also quite tall, with long braids, called Xu Yin, it seems that Huang Yanli's tall figure is inherited from her parents.
For Yunli and Brother Chen's joining, they are naturally very welcome, in the previous recruitment of Yunli, their husband and wife have participated, and they are acquaintances, and anyone can see that there will be a lot of odd jobs to recruit after Yunli's farm, and it is very beneficial to be able to get close to him.
In the process of chatting, Yun Li also found that Huang Yanli and her family were still a little related to Brother Chen, although they were quite estranged, which really surprised him.
