333 This task is a bit difficult 8
This time the whole village was in a sensation, and catching such a big wild boar was much more powerful than catching that roe deer.
Even when Zhang Orion was alive, he didn't have such a record!
Everyone helped Song Shuyun move the wild boar back.
As soon as she entered the house, Song Shuyun hid in the kitchen and vomited blood.
She used her mind to support her body, leaned on the stove and couldn't move for a long time, and waited for a while before taking out the medicine from the space and taking it.
The effect of eating this time was obvious, although it didn't make her alive immediately, but she calmed down a few breaths and stood up straight.
Zhang Dalang and Zhang Erlang were still dealing with the arrival, and the jewel was already sharpening their knives under the eaves.
The wild boar is already dead, and bloodletting has become a problem, but no one cares, and everyone only sees such a big lump of meat and doesn't know how long it will take!
Because the wild boar was too big, Song Shuyun simply called everyone over, and everyone helped to deal with the wild boar quickly.
Song Shuyun left a small half for her family to pickle, and the rest of the good meat, the family who came to help shared some, and the remaining pig intestines and broken bones stewed in a big pot with pickles, and everyone ate happily.
After dividing the meat this time, the Zhang family's status in the village instantly rose.
Early the next morning, Song Shuyun got up before dawn, took advantage of the child's wake-up and took the long knife exchanged by the main god space, peeled and deboned half of the pig, cut it into long strips, and boiled a large pot of boiling water, boiling all the salt at home into salt water.
Then she made a great fire in the yard, set up a makeshift in the near distance, and smoked all the pork coated with salt water into jerky.
The smell of bacon wafts through the village.
Someone still wanted to help, but Song Shuyun refused, this job is not easy, the family of four worked hard for three days to finish it all.
On the afternoon when everything was cleaned up, Song Shuyun personally cooked a meal of bacon and rice for several children, and also quarreled with two side dishes with lard.
To be honest, the taste is not very good, the taste of wild boar meat is quite different from that of domestic pigs, but it is such a meal, and I eat Baozhu until I cry.
Although Baozhu is called Baozhu, she is the most hard-suffering among the children in the family, she lost her father at a young age, and her two brothers are also children, Zhao Sanniang does not discipline her much, and she has to work with her eldest brother and second brother at a young age, and she always can't eat.
Dalang Erlang still has memories of when his family conditions were good, but Baozhu's memory only has an unfed stomach and endless odd jobs.
When she ate the fourth bowl, Song Shuyun was scared, for fear of holding the child to death, but the well-behaved and obedient Baozhu lost her temper with Song Shuyun for the first time, and she didn't let go of anything while holding the rice bowl.
Song Shuyun has no experience in coaxing children at all, and she can't understand after persuading her for a while.
At this time, she suddenly had a question that she had hated since she was a child, and she wanted to ask Baozhu.
She wanted to ask, did I give you face!
But in the end, he swallowed this question back, threw the child to Zhang Dalang, collected the little firewood left in the house, and hung the bacon on the eaves one by one.
Baozhu cried enough, so he sat under the eaves and drooled at the bacon.
Song Shuyun didn't have time to take care of her, it was very cold this winter, she was going to repair the house again, and now that the land was about to be reclaimed, many things at home were gone.
Needles and threads can also be changed at the neighbor's house, but things like salt and sugar have to go to the county seat and can be bought.
As soon as she wanted to go to the county seat, Song Shuyun only felt that her brain hurt.
Nowadays, there are many miscellaneous taxes, and when you enter the city, you have to pay the tax on brocade clothes, cloth, and linen according to the way you dress, and if you go to buy and sell things, you also have to pay the sales tax, and when you buy salt and grain, you also have to pay salt tax and grain tax.
Spending copper money is subject to copper coin tax, and spending silver money is subject to silver coin tax.
There are three steps, one pavilion and five steps and one post in the city, but unfortunately it is not to protect the family and defend the country, but all to facilitate tax collection.
One hundred city defenses, five hundred tax collectors.
The people in the village wanted to buy something in the city, and one copper plate was enough for something, but after a round of taxes, it cost about four copper plates, and the price of goods had increased several times, which was no different from a robbery.
Now that the Zhang family has no money at all, all taxes can only be offset by grain, and Song Shuyun wants to buy salt, so she has to carry a lot of grain into the city.
The Zhang family has a two-wheeled vehicle, but the family's donkey has long been sold, if the cart can only be pulled by manpower, Song Shuyun has experienced the last wild boar incident, and already knows where his limit is.
It is obviously unrealistic to carry food on your back.
The county seat is nearly forty miles away from here, and Song Shuyun's footsteps take about two and a half hours to walk.
In the past, there was no need to go so far, and it didn't take long for a village more than ten miles away from here to have a big market, and everyone was willing to go there to buy things.
But a few years ago, after the imperial court promulgated the collection tax, the market there could not be opened, and everyone could only go to the county town to buy whatever they needed!
Song Shuyun was helpless, so she asked Zhang Dalang to take two pieces of meat to the village to exchange some copper coins with people, and now copper coins are the most valuable things.
She went to the county seat with copper coins and some skin-smoked jerky kneaded by herself.
Such a poor and tiring life constantly consumed Song Shuyun's will, making her neglect her tasks several times.
It was also in the past two days that she was a little idle, and she remembered that she would kill those dozens of soldiers at the beginning of spring next year, and she had to prepare some things herself.
Because there are man-made and anti-confrontation relations in various places, the control of metals is becoming more and more severe.
It was obviously unrealistic to buy swords and daggers or something, so she could only buy two small files to go back.
The Zhang family has a simple hand crossbow, which is ancestral, Song Shuyun studied it for two days, sent some questions, and also had some experience, ready to improve it herself.
She carries a lot of things, thirty or forty pounds, which is already her limit now.
Fortunately, she didn't have much to change, just some salt and a file.
She went out before dawn, and when she arrived at the county seat, she was just over halfway there.
Zhao Sanniang rarely goes to the county seat, once when Zhang Hu was pleasing her, he took her to come twice, which is already rare, and many women in the village have never even left the village in their lives!
The city wall of the county town is not high, about four meters, all of them are made of bricks, some places have been damaged, Qibao County written on the city gate, the handwriting is a little blurred, Song Shuyun's eyesight was stunned for a while before he recognized these words.
There are notices posted at the gate of the city, and they are all famous bandits in the mountains.
The mountain bandits here have no bottom line, they are not kind, and they will not rob the rich and help the poor, Song Shuyun glanced at it, wanting to remember the appearance of these people, and thinking about being more prepared in the future.
As a result, the portrait above had no features except for a nose and eyes, and she sighed and immediately understood that this was obviously not really a bandit.
