Chapter 102: Let's go up the mountain together
Thirty-four taels, what is this concept?
This silver can build a large compound like Lin Changxi's house in Xiaoqing Village, and can add five or six acres of good paddy fields, which is enough to buy some valuable industries in the eyes of rural people.
However, if he wants to buy a decent house in the town according to Hemai's wishes, I am afraid it will be much worse.
Before returning from Qinghe Town last time, the two stopped by Yaxing and inquired about the price of decent houses in the town.
A set of two hundred taels of silver will cost less to enter the house, not counting the commission and miscellaneous handling fees that need to be paid to the tooth store at that time.
Besides, if you enter such a house, you won't be able to hunt and raise bamboo rats for a living, right?
At that time, it was necessary to find some other way out, or to run some small business, or to buy more land now, and lease it to tenants at that time.
Therefore, whether you want to run a small business or buy a decent house in the town, it is not as simple as you think.
For now, you still have to earn enough money to think carefully about your future plans.
After signing the bamboo rat plan with Song Caiban, the two took time to take Xiao Hei up the mountain in the early morning of the third day.
Rokuro and Song Caiban talked for a long time in the house, not only about the purchase of bamboo rats, but also about Song Caiban's private plea for Rokuro's help.
He knew that Rokuro was a hunter in Xiaoqing Village, and he also knew that he was experienced and keen, so he asked him that day if he could help him find a medicinal herb when he went up the mountain next time.
Jin Buchang grows in a narrow area near the mountainside, backlit and happy, but Xiaoqing Village is a flat terrain, so it is a little difficult to find Jin Buchang.
Song Caiban asked many people to find wild gold and did not change it, but they all returned in vain, and his grandmother urgently needed this medicine to hang his life, so he could only pin his last hope on Liulang's body.
Previously, Liulang followed He Mai to learn medical skills, and he knew the characteristics and smell of gold in medical skills, and recalled it in his mind, and seemed to vaguely remember that he had seen this medicine on the mountainside.
So he promised Song Cai to go up the mountain in two days to inquire, and after He Mai heard about it, he also geared up and wanted to go up the mountain with Liulang to find medicine.
Rokuro had promised He Mai that he would take her up to the mountains for real hunting when he had a good time, and this time it was a good opportunity.
This time, the main purpose of the two of them is to collect medicine, followed by hunting, and they will not be too far away from the mountainside, and the danger factor is not high. And Xiao Hei is now growing up, and he has a majestic and brave posture, and this time he went up the mountain to collect medicine and hunt, which is also a good opportunity to practice.
Seeing that the weather is fast, from midsummer to early autumn, it is the golden season for hunting.
It had just rained the day before yesterday, and both of them were wearing straw sandals when they went up the mountain.
This road has been walked by Hemai and Liulang more than 100 times on weekdays, and today when they go up the mountain, Hemai has a nervous and excited mood.
"Isn't the bear's paw the most valuable?" He Mai asked Rokuro.
Rokuro thought for a moment and replied, "No. Most of them are served on the dining table of the restaurant and are regarded as delicacies. No matter how expensive the food is, it can't compare to the useful ones. ”
He Mai asked, "A bear's paw is worth five taels of silver!" What's more valuable than that? ”
Rokuro looked at her sideways, "Bear bile, the most precious thing in a bear is bear bile, which can be used in medicine, and it is a very precious and rare medicinal material." There are also tiger bones, wolf skins, and antlers, which are far more expensive than bear's paw gold. ”
He Mai nodded suddenly, "I know!" What can be used as medicine is the most valuable, and what can be eaten can only be used to satisfy the appetite, in fact, there is nothing rare, right? ”
Rokuro looked at her appreciatively, "Exactly." ”
He Mai lowered his head seriously and thought for a while, and suddenly looked at the forest in front of him with a palpitating face, "Then we must encounter some prey today." You're saying that there are deer on the mountain, right? We have to be bumped into each other. ”
Rokuro smiled softly and said nothing.
The main purpose of coming up today was to collect medicine, and during the journey from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, the two of them did not alarm even if they met a few hares and pheasants, and only waited for the first time to go to the mountainside to find a circle of gold and not change before prey.
Xiao Hei is also very obedient today, his eyes are alert and keen, and his ears are also vigilantly turned back, and he follows Hemai's feet every step of the way.
When they arrived at the place where the memory of Rokuro was born and the gold was not changed, the two of them and a dog had already traveled for more than two hours.
But the two searched up and down, but found nothing.
Rokuro carefully inspected the nearby vegetation and flowers, and a trace of helplessness flashed on his face, "It should have been taken away." ”
He Mai was surprised, but he could understand.
On weekdays, it is difficult to see villagers in Xiaoqingshan, but it does not mean that there are no foreign medicine pickers and hunters in Xiaoqingshan.
Over this small green mountain, there is the Manniu Mountain in the distance, and at the foot of the Manniu Mountain is the small barbarian village.
And over Manniu Village is Tiannu Mountain, and at the foot of the mountain is a village......
This herb is rare and rare, and although it grows on the mountainside, it is extremely difficult to obtain due to the special growing conditions, and it is very valuable.
Therefore, many herb pickers would rather cross several mountains and walk for ten days and a half months, as long as they can obtain this herb, it is worth the trip.
"I'm afraid there won't be any more gold in the vicinity." Rokuro said, "But I still want to look for it, Hemai, can the body still eat?" ”
"I'm fine," replied Hemai briskly, "don't worry about me." ”
Rao is Hemai said that it was okay, but Rokuro still chose to rest in the forest for a while before continuing to hurry.
Walking westward around the mountainside is not an easy task.
It just rained yesterday, and the mountain road is still muddy, and it is extremely difficult to get off the foot. Fortunately, the weather is not cold, and the body will be warm after sitting and resting for a while.
Hurried again, walked around Xiao Qingshan for less than an hour, but suddenly saw Xiao Hei roaring violently and fiercely.
Xiao Hei's hind feet aroused the vigilance of Rokuro and Hemai, Rokuro bent his bow and arrows, and Hemai also took out a small machete to defend himself.
A brown shadow swept up in the grass in front of him and ran deeper into the mountains.
"Is it a bear?" He Mai asked worriedly.
Before Rokuro came, he told her that fierce beasts were rare on the mountainside, but the brown bear was a brainless thing, and he might run to the foot of the mountainside in order to catch any prey, so it was better to be careful.
Liulang glanced at it a few times and said decisively: "It's not a bear, it's a fragrant roe deer." ”
"Fragrant roe deer?"
Without waiting to solve Hemai's doubts, Liulang issued a designation to Xiao Hei, "Xiao Hei, chase!" ”
Xiao Hei's figure quickly turned into a black light in the mountains, and Liulang grabbed He Mai's hand, "Go!" ”
Although the two of them have kung fu and strong feet, even so, it is not easy to catch up with the wild animals in the mountains that are good at running.
