Chapter 415: Catching Rats on the River Beach
Chapter 415 The river beach is busy catching rats
"What are you doing here, the business in the store is not busy?" Waiting for Pang Xu to eat Haisai, Liu Junhao asked about the matter.
"Oh, I almost forgot about business. You prepare nine firewood chickens for me, and get nine carp weighing three catties. Here you go, it's money......" Pang Xu said and took out a large handful of tickets from his pocket.
"What do you want so much for?" Liu Junhao cried with a sad face. He really didn't plan to sell the things in the courtyard, not to mention that Huo Jun had just asked for a few water chickens, and he also took away seven or eight firewood chickens, but he didn't expect this guy to turn around and come again...... But since he came, he could only endure the pain and cut his love.
"Look at your boy with a sad face, as if I owe you money. This time it was Pang Sheng's marriage, and the last time I got married, the chicken and fish made the guests praise it, and the second uncle begged me. Pang Xu opened his mouth to explain.
"Okay then" getting married is a good thing, Liu Junhao can only nod. It seems that there are two fewer firewood chickens killed during the Chinese New Year this year.
More than a dozen firewood chickens were caught at once, and there were only more than 20 left in their yard, of course, pheasants were not counted. But the carp don't have to worry, there are a lot of them in the ditch, and if it's not enough, you can make it up from the stone lock.
Because the cook at home was waiting for the chicken and fish to cook, Pang Xu didn't stay in Liujiagou for long, of course, before leaving, the foodie got some wild lamb meat and went back.
Sending people away, Liu Junhao got some wild mutton for a few animals in the courtyard, and then ate it with a bowl himself. With more than two catties of wild lamb in his stomach, he began to burp full, and it seemed that he didn't have to eat later.
Zhang Qian came back from school and smelled the fragrance as soon as she entered the yard.
She thought it was tempting and wanted to take two bites, but she started retching before she could open her mouth.
It took a few grapes to suppress the uncomfortable feeling...... When she encountered good things that she couldn't eat, Zhang Qianxiao was a little depressed, and muttered vigorously, "When our child is born, I will slap his ass twice, and see how his wife will be tossed." ”
"It's time to fight," Liu Junhao nodded vigorously. After saying that after having a child, I haven't been intimate with my wife for a long time, and I feel quite uncomfortable.
Originally, I was going to fry a fungus to eat at noon, but who knew that my daughter-in-law said that she would go to the backyard to pull some vegetables to eat.
"Husband, what do you think is good to plant in such a big empty place in our backyard?" When the vegetables came back, Zhang Qian began to care about the problem of farming.
"You say ......" In fact, Liu Junhao has been worrying about this matter recently. There are a few points in the backyard, and only a few small pieces of vegetables are enough, and if there are too many, the two of them can't eat them at all, which is a complete waste.
Liu Junhao, who planted wheat, didn't have this mind, mainly because it was too troublesome to put it away. The backyard is staggered with ditches, and it is impossible to harvest it by machine, only by manpower. In fact, harvesting is not a problem, and it is estimated that it can be harvested in half a day with its own speed. More importantly, after harvesting, it should be threshed, raised and dried. Tossing down and tiring people enough is really not cost-effective.
In this way, other people's wheat has come out, and he is still thinking about what to plant.
Zhang Qian heard her husband worried, her eyes lit up and said, "Why don't we plant rapeseed, I saw the pictures of the Xinghua Thousand Islands Cauliflower Scenic Area on the Internet some time ago, and the rape flowers there are so beautiful." ”
She was paying attention to it last year, and if it wasn't for the wrong season, Zhang Qian still had plans to go to Xinghua for her honeymoon.
On the eighteenth floor, there are tourists who have posted photos of the Xinghua Cauliflower Scenic Area, and Liu Junhao has naturally checked the information in this regard.
After reading it, he only had to be amazed, and people were generous, directly using 10,000 acres of rape flowers to open up a pastoral ecological scenery. It is indeed a good thing to kill two birds with one stone, which can not only treat rape flowers as a traditional cash crop, but also enrich the local tourism resources.
Originally, he didn't have the idea of planting rapeseed, but after hearing what his wife said, Liu Junhao felt that this proposal was very good. Planting rape on that little land can provide a new source of nectar for their native bees, and also solve their problem of eating oil.
In the past, Liu Junhao bought some refined oil directly from the street to eat, but later felt that it tasted wrong, so he bought some soybeans from the village and squeezed the oil to eat by himself.
This year, there are dozens of catties of sesame seeds in the courtyard, and he and Zhang Qian all stayed to extract oil. squeezed oil and sent a few catties to Zhang's mother and Aunt Zhang Qian's family,
In the end, there wasn't much left in my house.
It is estimated that the sesame oil at home can last until the New Year, and if you plant some rape, the problem of eating oil will be completely solved. Rapeseed oil also tastes very good, and I believe that with the moisture of spring water, the quality is absolutely guaranteed.
In addition, the backyard is planted with rape flowers, so you can imagine how many butterflies there will be in the backyard when the flowers bloom next year, and what a grand occasion it will be
Thinking of the benefits of growing rapeseed, Liu Junhao was a little impatient, and planned to go to the village to find some seeds after lunch.
But before he stepped out of the building, he saw a group of tourists talking and laughing from not far away.
"What are you doing here?" Seeing the majestic appearance of everyone holding shovels in their hands, Liu Junhao asked curiously. "Go dig a rat hole on the river beach, you should be fine in the afternoon, why don't you come with us and help us identify the rat hole?" The tourist patted his shovel and said.
Feelings are digging mouse holes, just now I saw their shape, I thought they were participating in the large-scale production movement. Liu Junhao was not interested, but at the warm invitation of everyone, he still carried a shovel from the courtyard and kept up, completely forgetting about planting rape.
The reeds in November have withered and yellowed, the autumn wind blows, and the dense reeds are pressed one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, like waves rolling, there is an indescribable beauty...... In recent times, it has become the go-to place for wedding photos.
"What kind of bird is this, so good-sounding?" A tourist asked with interest, pointing to a black dot in the sky. This buddy's name is Jiang Feng, and he found Liu Jiagou through a TV series some time ago.
The reason why Liu Junhao can clearly remember his name is because of the poisoning incident caused by this person.
Jiang Feng has lived in the city since he was a child, and the last time he visited the mountain village was the first time. When he was playing in the mountains, he saw a purring red mountain forest fruit, and he was so hungry that he grabbed the fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.
You can't eat more mountain forest fruits without frosting, and it's great to eat too much.
This guy is the first to eat mountain flavors, so he naturally doesn't know the inside story. I didn't eat enough, and when I went down the mountain, my stomach hurt badly, and I thought I was poisoned, so Liu Junhao took him to the street to get a few bottles of hanging needles.
"It should be called the Son of Heaven, which is the lark mentioned in the book, right?" Chang Chang replied, and then asked Liu Junhao uncertainly.
The bird flew so high that he couldn't see clearly.
"Hehe, it's not a lark, it's called Huang Yan, they're quite similar." Liu Junhao listened to a few bird calls, and then said with a smile.
Skylarks fly higher, they often volley into the air and can hang in the sky above tens of meters to stay and sing. Sometimes, without warning, it will stop chirping, suddenly fall vertically, and when it is close to the ground, it will fly upwards again, and it will be called again.
Huang Yan looks similar to a lark, but is slightly smaller and has yellow-brown spots all over its body. This bird does not fly as high as a lark, but the meat is a thief. They make a nest very simply, in spring and summer, they can find a small pit in the reeds or fields, and take a few dead grasses in their mouths to make a nest, and one nest can lay four or five eggs.
The yellow swallow bird is also a relatively silly kind, and it is quite easy to catch. After discovering the bird's nest, just get some branches and insert them around the bird's nest to form a birdcage shape, and then insert a winding roadway at the exit. When it returns to the nest, it will find the entrance and drill directly into it, and when it gets in, it will never find the exit, and then the person will directly cover it with his hand.
Skylarks, on the other hand, are not so stupid, they are more secretive, and often sit their nests in the trenches, and the color is no different from clods of earth, and it is difficult for people to find them even if they come to them.
Everyone talked and laughed and came to the ditch, and before Liu Junhao could explain to them the precautions for digging rat holes, several tourists had already thrown their arms to dig.
Get...... Let the family dig it themselves, anyway, they take it as fun digging rat holes.
Most people think that digging rat holes only requires brute force, but in fact, it is not the case, it is a highly skilled job. The first thing to do is to look at the shape of the burrow, because there are not only rats making burrows on the edge of the ditch. Even if you find a rat hole, look for traces on the edge of the hole, there are many caves where there are no rats.
Liu Junhao led the two macular skins to walk more than ten meters away, and finally found a mouse hole on the sunny side. I saw the pile of fine soil not far from the entrance of the cave, which was obviously freshly dug.
He had just been digging for less than ten minutes, when he suddenly heard a shout behind him, "I'm dripping mom", and when he turned his head, he saw Jiang Feng sitting on the mound of dirt, and the shovel was thrown far away.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" When everyone rushed over, they found that he had dug up several cauliflower snakes more than one meter long, although these snakes were hibernating, their fat bodies were the thickness of a teacup, and their wriggling was quite scary.
"This ...... How can there be rats here? "Jiang Feng was the first time to get close to the big snake, and he was so frightened that his legs trembled, and he didn't speak at all.
"Hehe, under normal circumstances, snakes hibernate generally to find rat holes. You all have to be careful......" Liu Junhao shoveled a few shovels of soil and re-sealed the hole.
"What the hell is there in the hole?" It took nearly two minutes for Jiang Feng's face to recover. "When digging rat holes, you need to find the kind of holes that have broken soil particles in front of them, and other holes are generally free of rats, and they are prone to accidents." Liu Junhao can only emphasize again.
"Xiao Hao, see if I'm here." Lao Chang pulled him to the front of the cave he had dug again.
"No, don't dig it, this is not a rat hole......" Looking at the shape of the cave and the location of the cave, Liu Junhao replied in the affirmative.
"How could it not be, I saw a mouse just now, and when I was digging, a black shadow was still drilling inside......" Lao Chang's words were not finished, something "swished" out of the hole, and flew into the sky with a cloud of smoke.
"What's that?" The crowd was once again alarmed.
Liu Junhao said twice, "It's okay, it's a kingfisher, and this thing is also making a nest underground." ”
Well, today is about three more than nine thousand words, but the last two will be released at about one and a half o'clock, so you can wait until tomorrow to read it
