In winter and spring, the main collection of medicinal materials for the roots is used, while in summer and autumn, it is the main time to harvest the whole plant for medicine or leaves.

Medicinal materials have always been a major item of drug consumption, and they are purchased by purchasing points all year round.

If you feel that the price is not suitable, you can store it completely, and you can also sell it in large quantities on the street in March next year.

This kind of thing, how can it be without Kang Langxiang.

When Kang Langxiang agreed to settle in Zhangjiaao, Wang Mingyuan told her about digging herbs, and since then, she has been making preparations.

As soon as Han Xiaoling heard that she was going to go into the mountains to collect medicine, she also made a noise: "I'm going too!" ”

Wang Mingyuan looked at her: "Don't go, there are many beasts in the mountains, and it's dangerous." ”

"I'm going to study at Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, let me follow, so that I can learn more about Chinese medicine as soon as possible." Han Xiaoling pouted: "The stupid bird flies first." ”

"Aren't you already reading a medicine book?"

"How can the picture on it be truly seen?"

"Makes sense!"

Wang Mingyuan saw that she looked studious, and agreed to the matter: "You go and call Doctor Kang." ”

He was mainly worried that it would not be safe for her to be left alone here, and although it was dangerous in the forest, at least he was by his side.

"Hmm!"

Han Xiaoling nodded in response, and ran excitedly towards Kang Langxiang's house.

"I'll go with me!" Zhang Shouzhong thought for a while and said: "There are many snakes, insects, birds and beasts in the mountains, and there are many dangers. ”

Wang Mingyuan nodded.

Zhang Shouzhong's house, with Zhang Guanghua to help take care of it, there is not much of a problem.

After entering the mountain, there are few competent people to take care of it, which is really inappropriate.

This time, he was going to bring all the men and women in Zhangjiaao, except for the elderly and children.

After a while, Kang Langxiang came over with a notebook, Wang Mingyuan told her his plans, Kang Langxiang didn't say anything, just handed the local in his hand to Wang Mingyuan.

Wang Mingyuan opened the book and looked at it, and found that they were all medicinal materials that could be found in the mountains and were suitable for summer harvesting.

In addition to plants, there are also many snakes and insects, such as cicadas, snakes, centipedes, scorpions, and gadflies......

He looked down one by one, and when he saw the gadfly, his expression became strange, and he immediately asked: "Gadfly can also be used as medicine?" ”

He had the impression that the gadfly was a very annoying bug, which was very common in this summer, and specialized in sucking the blood of cattle and sheep.

Somewhat similar to mosquitoes, males feed on plant sap, while females need blood for reproduction.

Zhang Guanghua and other little children like to do the most during this time, that is, when they see the blood-sucking gadfly on the cow when they are herding the cow, they quietly approach, cover it with their palms, and tear off half of the buttocks directly after grabbing it, and then pick a small flower or a blade of grass and insert it on the buttocks and release it.

This thing, occasionally, sucks blood from people, and when it is bitten, it tastes really bad.

It's a very annoying thing for people and animals.

"Why not, there are so many things that can be used to make medicine, many of which you can't imagine." Kang Langxiang said with a smile.

Wang Mingyuan was noncommittal about this, he took a closer look, went back to the bedroom, and also listed the types of medicinal materials he collected at the Mingcheng and Mangxian acquisition points.

The other is a list that Su Ying got when she went to contact the pharmaceutical company.

After careful comparison, I found that there are a lot of medicinal herbs that can be harvested in this season.

He immediately asked Kang Langxiang and Zhang Shouzhong to call for men and prepare to enter the mountain.

Because it was an impromptu decision, most of the others were working in the fields or going up to the mountains to collect soil and fertilizer, so it took more than an hour to gather the manpower.

They each brought the necessary tools and food, and prepared for it, and when the group went up the mountain, it was already nearly two o'clock in the afternoon.

This time, all that was left behind in Zhangjiaao was some children and the elderly.

When he walked along the dirt road to Tiankeng until he saw the Chenjiagou people who were repairing the road, Wang Mingyuan specially called Chen Youdong aside and asked him to help arrange manpower and take care of the old and young people in Zhangjiaao.

He also informed him that the order for the generator had been placed, and gave him a reserved drawing for the repair of the dam, and as long as the dam outside the village was repaired, it could be sent down from Mingcheng for installation at any time.

This made Chen Jiagou and his party very happy.

Chen Youdong even arranged things directly.

Wang Mingyuan does what he says, and he naturally can't contain the lake.

Bidding farewell to the cadres, Wang Mingyuan and Zhang Shouzhong continued to lead everyone to the farm one after the other.

Although they have lived in Zhangjiaao for many years, there are many people who have never really gone deep into this primeval forest, and everything in it seems to them to be as strange.

Many birds and beasts of various shapes appeared from afar, and they were all amazed.

For this reason, it was very lively along the way.

At about six o'clock in the afternoon, a cadre arrived at the sinkhole.

The summer days are long, with a little more than five o'clock in the morning and no time until it is completely dark until nearly eight o'clock in the evening.

In the sinkhole, looking at the red lingzhi passing by, and the dendrobium everywhere, this is also a magical scene they have never seen, and they are asking one after another, how did the place full of weeds and trees in this mountain magically become what it is now.

What makes them even happier is the wooden houses on stilts hidden in the sinkhole woods.

This wooden house is much stronger and more beautiful than the bamboo house they live in.

After asking the location of the wooden house assigned to them, they rushed to their homes to see what it was like inside.

After reading it, some people immediately said that it would be nice to live in this place forever.

In fact, Wang Mingyuan also wanted them to live in such a place, but after all, this was in the mountains.

People always have to look at the world to know the changes in the world, the mountains are too closed, working on the farm is no problem, but there is less contact with the outside world. If nothing else, the problem of children going to school alone is a problem.

Tang Nianqiu was arranged by Wang Mingyuan to live with Han Xiaoling, and lived in a different room from the wooden house with himself.

Although this woman was led to the farm by him, after seeing the scene when she was about to kill with a knife, Wang Mingyuan still felt that it was more reliable to let her follow him.

is often under your own nose, and it is easier to find clues, but there are abnormal behaviors, which can be solved in time.

He has been practicing Dai boxing a lot these days, and he already has a lot of experience.

He is confident that he will not have the slightest pressure to deal with such a woman.

Afterwards, a group of people began to cook in their respective homes, all of whom worked on the farm, and some of them had not seen each other for a while, so they had a good time together.

Wang Mingyuan didn't bother them, and led Han Xiaoling and Tang Nianqiu back to his house next to the hot spring.

Han Xiaoling was busy cooking, Tang Nianqiu also consciously helped, there was no shortage of food in the house, Wang Mingyuan was happy and comfortable, and went to the hot spring to take a bath.

The current hot springs have been fenced with wooden planks by Wang Mingyuan to separate the male and female areas.

It's not that he's not open-minded enough, but it's not a cover-up, and there's no simple mixed bathing habit from the traditional male-female bath, so you have to pay attention to the influence.

Kang Langxiang can accept it, but it doesn't mean that Han Xiaoling can also agree.

What's more, in this sinkhole, there are several ignorant boys and girls.

In the evening, Wang Mingyuan deliberately showed a movie to a group of people, which made the already excited people even happier, which was the icing on the cake.

But, things still have to be done.

After two movies were played, he urged the people to go back to rest early.

The next morning, after Wang Mingyuan had breakfast with everyone, he called Zhang Shouzhong's three brothers and led a group of people into the mountain together.

He himself also brought five or six rushes and followed the escort.

Among a group of people, only Kang Langxiang knows medicine, and for others, they also know some common drugs such as Bone Penetrating Grass and Chonglou. Most of them don't know.

Therefore, when searching for and harvesting medicinal herbs, Kang Langxiang became the busiest person.

She had to keep teaching everyone about all kinds of medicinal herbs, telling them that those that could be used, those that could be harvested, and those that were less than a year old had to be kept.

In this regard, we do not tire of it.

In the process, people also make new discoveries from time to time.

The word Sister Kang comes and goes.

With Kang Langxiang running around, there is also Han Xiaoling.

This little girl is a ghost and a ghost, and she knows very well that she can learn as much knowledge as possible with Kang Langxiang, and she has become Kang Langxiang's follower all the way.

The two of them get along well, they are the two best in Zhangjiaao, Han Xiaoling is studious, Kang Langxiang also teaches seriously, and when he sees the drugs he is familiar with, he instills them in Han Xiaoling who is holding a small notebook to record as much as possible.

Wang Mingyuan and Zhang Shouzhong were not idle.

In the spare time of patrolling around, he was also busy collecting medicinal herbs.

However, they collect centipedes and scorpions that most people are afraid of.

There are so many people, the beasts hidden in the forest have already been frightened away, and Zhang Shouzhong's two shots directly into the sky, just this sound is enough to deter the jackals who can't open their eyes.

The weirdest and most difficult to prevent has to be snakes and all kinds of insects.

This also makes the most sound except for Kang Langxiang, the most obvious sound is the scream when he sees the snake and insect.

Rao is so, in the morning, the harvest is still very considerable.

Others don't say it, Wang Mingyuan alone has caught a lot of red dragon centipedes and scorpions.

The bamboo baskets with a few finely woven bamboo strips hanging on the body were full.

Gather the medicinal herbs, distribute them to everyone and bring some each, return to the sinkhole to have lunch and rest, the medicinal herbs are piled up in the small square in the forest, some are divided to cook, and the rest of the people help to carry out simple sorting.

Wang Mingyuan is also busy handling scorpions, and only needs to clean the scorpions with sediment, put them in boiling water or salt water and boil them until they are stiff and take them out to dry.

If you cook it for a long time, the toxicity itself will be dispersed into the water, and it will be useless.

The Chinese herbal medicine made of scorpions is called the whole scorpion, which is a strange thing that fights poison with poison.

It sounds simple, but it's actually quite a hassle to do.

He first poured cold water with a bucket, poured the scorpion into it, gently stirred it with a stick, washed the dirt off the scorpion's body, made it spit out the dirt in its body, rinsed it several times, and then drained it.

Then mix it with water according to the ratio of three taels of salt for one pound of scorpions, and soak it in a bucket.

It takes four or five hours to get this bubble out.

Follow-up need to boil with salt water for about 20 minutes, until the tail end of the scorpion body is straight and erect, stiff and unchanged, and there is a groove behind the back can be taken out, and the rest is dry in the shade.

But that's going to be after I get back in the afternoon.

After Wang Mingyuan fiddled with it, he went back to the house to help Han Xiaoling cook.

Who knows, it didn't take long for Zhang Shouzhong to come.

Holding a big bowl, he stood on the porch and looked at Wang Mingyuan inside, pretending to be mysterious and said, "Xiao Wang, do you want to have some!" ”

"What's that?" Wang Mingyuan asked curiously.

"It's something you haven't eaten!" Zhang Shouzhong said with a smile.

Wang Mingyuan frowned slightly, and when he went out to take a look, his scalp was numb all of a sudden.

Good guy, what Zhang Shouzhong is in the bowl is clearly a fried scorpion.

This product is very fast, and he must have directly fried the scorpion he cleaned.

"Can I eat this?" Wang Mingyuan couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Shouzhong gave him a blank look: "Why can't you eat what I'm frying?" ”

As he spoke, he took a scorpion and threw it into his mouth, chewed it vigorously, and nodded vigorously: "Fragrant!" ”

Wang Mingyuan looked at him suspiciously, until he chewed and swallowed the scorpion, looking at him, he did eat quite sweet, but when he thought of the scorpion's poison, he was a little worried.

After thinking about it, I was a person who had even eaten centipedes, so what else was there to be afraid of.

No matter how bad it is, it is impossible for Li Jianguo to eat centipedes.

Seeing Zhang Shouzhong's provocative appearance, he also grabbed a scorpion from the bowl and threw it into his mouth and chewed it.

Don't say it, the taste is ok.

The fragrance is similar to that of a bee pupae, except that the surface of the scorpion is a little mixed with a hard shell.

After tasting two, Wang Mingyuan stopped in moderation.

Zhang Shouzhong began to call Han Xiaoling again.

Han Xiaoling had already seen the two of them eating scorpions through the window, and immediately shook her head like a rattle: "Third uncle, the fried scorpion has no tonic effect, eating that thing has no effect, and the most precious poison in it is gone." ”

"Who said that? I've eaten it before, and it's going to be hot, crispy, numb, and it's definitely good for rheumatism. Zhang Shouzhong pouted.

"Sister Kang said it." Han Xiaoling said with a smile.

Wang Mingyuan heard Zhang Shouzhong say: "Third uncle, you said that your body will be very hot after eating, crispy and numb, will your scalp be itchy?" ”

"It's going to itch, and there's a lot of eye droppings coming out of my eyes the next day."

Wang Mingyuan understood it, what kind of rheumatism is this, fried scorpions are similar to other insects, they are all high protein, and Zhang Shouzhong's physical reaction shows that he is on the verge of protein allergy nine times out of ten.

"I advise you not to eat it, if you really eat all these things, I'm afraid you will suffer from it in the afternoon, and you will be allergic." Wang Mingyuan persuaded.

Zhang Shouzhong rolled his eyes: "If you don't want to eat it, you won't eat it, and you still want to persuade me not to eat it, this uses lard, and it's fried so crispy, I'm reluctant to throw it away!" ”

After he finished speaking, he walked away with the bowl.

But soon he saw it.

Wang Mingyuan was eating, when he heard a commotion in the river outside, he walked to the window with a bowl and saw that it was not Zhang Shouzhong who was soaking in the cold water, looking at his scratching and scratching, pimpled appearance, Wang Mingyuan laughed on the spot: "Third uncle, you still have to listen to people's persuasion, this is enough for you." ”

Zhang Shouzhong uncomfortably shouted at Kang Langxiang, who had eaten and began to sort out the medicinal materials again: "Kang family girl, help my uncle to heal." ”

Kang Langxiang got up and looked at Zhang Shouzhong: "Soak it, I don't have the rule of law, I don't have medicine for allergies, besides, I also persuaded you, you don't listen!" ”

Zhang Shouzhong immediately leaned back and poured into the water: "Damn, I won't eat it if I am killed in the future." ”

Fortunately, Zhang Shouzhong's allergies are not serious, and in the afternoon, he still participated in the collection of medicines.

It's just that Tang Nianqiu, who hasn't spoken much, has a moth and breaks his foot.

Wang Mingyuan had been busy, and when he heard the movement, he went over to take a look, and found that Tang Nianqiu rolled up his trouser legs, and there was a big hole on the exposed knee, which was knocked when he fell.

"Is it serious?" Wang Mingyuan asked.

"It's not too serious, but her foot injury is not good enough to collect medicine, so let's send it back to the farm to rest." Kang Langxiang examined her, and said after simply finding herbs to bandage and stop the bleeding.

Wang Mingyuan thought for a while, and shouted at Zhang Shouzhong: "Third uncle, take care of the others with more snacks, and I'll send Tang Nianqiu back." ”

This person has to be sent by him, and he is not at ease with other people, for fear that one will be accidentally deceived.

"Okay, there you go!" Zhang Shouzhong also came over to take a look.

Wang Mingyuan then explained to Han Xiaoling: "I'm not here, pay attention to yourself." ”

Han Xiaoling nodded: "Okay, I will." ”

Only then did Wang Mingyuan reach out and hold Tang Nianqiu and walk back.

It's just that he would never have thought that Tang Nianqiu would do such a ridiculous thing after returning to the farm.
