Chu Ying only picks 3 pine trees each time, and each time she goes to change the bamboo every three or five days, although it is not much, but there is still a lot of pine resin over time, Chu Ying took down the candle standing on the shelf, untied the outer line, and then took a knife and turned it between the two pieces of bamboo to separate the bamboo pieces.

Chu Ying took out the yellowish colored candles, placed them in the wooden box one by one, and then covered them with a wooden board.

Chu Ying likes the feeling of self-sufficiency very much, although now she has a little money and can go to the city to buy a better-looking box, but firstly, she doesn't need to look so good, and secondly, if she can not spend money, she will not spend money indiscriminately, and when there is no fixed input, spending less is making a fortune.

The ramie at home has been sown, and there is nothing to plant, Chu Ying is going to go to the city with a basket on his back to see what else can be planted, and also to see if there are any willow trees to pick, although he has made a fence here, but if he can insert a few willow trees to let it grow slowly, it is okay to remove the wooden fence or not to remove it when it grows well.

Moreover, most of the villagers here do not plant mulberry trees, and it is too time-consuming to buy seeds and plant mulberry trees, which is much later than cuttings, and they have to go into the city to see if they can pick some.

After entering the city, Chu Ying first went to Hu Da to see what old things could be bought, but the ground was full of broken bowls and clay pots that he had seen before, and there was nothing to use, looking at the people inside who moved the pruned branches, looking at these branches, Chu Ying couldn't tell them at once.

"Hu Da, what kind of branches are these?"

"It's you kid, it's the jujube tree, plum tree and plum tree in the garden, prune it when spring comes, what's wrong?" Chu Ying knew that the jujube tree could be propagated by transplanting new trees growing next to the roots of the tree, and Chu Ying was not very clear about other trees. "These are all to be thrown away, right?"

"Yes, I'll pull it away when I get out of the car."

Chu Ying looked at it carefully, "Then I'll take some back." "I deliberately picked some branches that grew on the side, and I picked more than 10 different kinds of branches.

"What do you want these for? These are quite difficult to plant, so you might as well buy seedlings. Chu Ying also knew that the survival rate would be relatively low with this, but these didn't cost money, Chu Ying still wanted to try to see if she could make it.

"It's okay, I'll take it back and try it. Where's your cousin? What happened to the injury last time? Chu Ying picked up the branches and casually found a topic to chat with Hu Da.

"Go back early, I went back to Chang'an within a few days of coming back at that time, but the whole house was torn bad, just looking for someone was tired of 3 horses, and the lord didn't sleep well every day, finally people came back alive, otherwise no one would be able to live in peace, thank you for this."

"Did you cousin mention me?" Chu Ying had never remembered where Yan Yushu had seen it before, but when she came to Hu Da, she remembered that she had seen Yan Yushu when she was cutting bamboo before.

"Yes, let's just say that I will have to take care of it more in the future. Are you going to move all of this? Want to request a car? Han Da watched Chu Ying tie up the branches that were twice as thick as himself, and put some of them in the back basket and some of them horizontally on top of the back basket.

"No, Hu Da, I can move, then thank you, I'll go first." Hu Da looked at the little Chu Ying struggling to carry the branches, and remembered that the young master said not to thank the silver money, just let Chu Ying come if there is a job. Chu Ying looked like he was indeed a tough child, and he wouldn't ask for silver money.

If Chu Ying knew that Yan Yushu thought like this, she would definitely run to Yan Yushu and say that she was a little money fan, don't pretend to be high, smash me, just smash me with money, Chu Ying saw that someone was collecting catkins with a sack on the side of the road, so she stepped forward to ask.

It turns out that this catkins can cure sores and pain, stop bleeding and clear heat and detoxify, I don't know if the chilblains on my hands can be cured, the chilblains on my hands are better now, but it is really painful and itchy in winter, Chu Ying put the back basket on the ground, and also collected the catkins in the same way as those women.

Chu Ying picked half of the catkins in the back basket, and pressed the branches on it and pressed them down, Chu Ying picked some willow branches, she came for this, Chu Ying originally wanted to ask where there were mulberry trees, but she couldn't carry the back basket, so she could only come again next time.

Chu Yingmai didn't get to the door, so Wang Qiyuan leaned his hoe against the wall and ran over. "You're in town? What are they? ”

"Some branches of fruit trees, and willows. Have you started spring ploughing? Want to help? ”

"No, you can get busy, and besides, you can't move the hoe, do you want to plant these branches? It's not enough to plant like this, I still have a lot of turnip roots at home, I'll go get some. Before Chu Ying said that she didn't need Wang Qiyuan, she had already run back, so Chu Ying moved her things home first.

Chu Ying used an axe to loosen the ground in the open space next to the house, and then stuck a branch into it.

"It will be better to plant it on the turnip root first, and then plant it, which is what my second uncle did." Chu Ying watched Wang Qiyuan first insert the branch on the turnip root, and then bury the turnip root in the ground.

This turnip is similar to modern kohlrabi, the root is thicker, and the radish is similar but different, Chu Ying originally wanted to plant, but this one is more than 7 months, so it can only be pushed back, Chu Ying saw Wang Yuyuan do it and did it next to it.

This method will indeed be better, providing nutrients to the branches, and the land should have been manure, but they did not ferment the raw manure, and applying it directly will burn the branches.

Wang Jiyuan compacted the soil next to the branches, stood up and wiped the fine sweat on his head, "This may not be able to live, you can try it first." The day after tomorrow is March 3rd, and I'll call you then. ”

Chu Ying thanked Wang Qiyuan and watered the fruit tree, and then planted the willow trees along the fence one step at a time, and waited for all the watering Chu Ying to sit down and drink saliva, it was not easy to do farm work, watching Wang Qiyuan holding a hoe and a clay pot I don't know when I will be busy before I come back.

Spring ploughing and autumn harvest is as important, a year's plan lies in spring, spring ploughing is the beginning of a bumper harvest, if spring ploughing is not done well, it will affect the yield later, and planting rice is to be rotated, otherwise the growth of rice will be bad year after year.

This is also one of the reasons why Chu Ying doesn't like to plant rice, she only has a few acres of land and can't make up land for rotation, of course, her own land is higher, and no water source is the hard flaw of not being able to grow rice.

After Chu Ying ate, she went to the back woods to cut the lacquer tree, picked the 3 largest lacquer trees, and opened a diagonal line more than 7 centimeters long at a distance of 50 cm from the ground, with a small angle, such a cut is like willow leaves and thrushes.

Although this oblique cutting method is not as much as the V-shaped cutting method, the wound heals faster, and it can be cut every other year or in a row, and the V-shaped cutting method needs to wait for 3 years before it can be operated again.

When Ushi and Pine Resin Chu Ying survived in the wild, they were used to repair broken boats, and at that time, the squad leader talked about how to cut them so that they could not hurt the trees, so that the trees could heal on their own.

These lacquer Chu Ying are intended to be used on the floor of the bedroom, although the floor Chu Ying has been polished with tree bark, but there are still some fine thorns, which will be much better after being painted, and it can also protect the floor and make the floor more wear-resistant.
