Chapter 91: Winter Honey and Spring Barrel Making (Second Update)

The mutton soup is still delicious and delicious, and the people who opened the store are almost too busy to touch the ground.

At noon, there were many people, and everyone saw that the officials actually drank mutton soup here, and they had the idea of tasting it.

The group of sixty people selling salt, with knives on their bodies, escorted the boat, this was the first operation, and it was a gamble.

So the chief bought three sheep and killed them to eat, and the salt seller's heart was slightly relaxed, and the village was indeed rich.

Someone inquired and learned that the village had bought 300 pigs today, and he had brought 53 carts pulled by two cattle.

There were also a lot of people from the village, and they all wore clothes...... With the same patch?

The clothes of the people in Xiaqiu Village are patched with an extra patch, bamboo rat skin, in a position that is easy to wear.

The skin has good ductility, and the action is not tight after patching, and there are so many bamboo rats in the village that contribute to the skin.

As for how to better cook the skin, that is, nitrate, there is Hanhan!

In addition to the patches, the villagers also wore uniform sheepskin boots, which were worn during the winter and early spring.

Why don't you wear cowhide? Too little cowhide. What about pigskin? Isn't the pork skin all used to make braised pork and frozen pork skin!

Last time, I bought mules, horses, and donkeys from dead animals, mule making tools, medicinal ashes for horses, and ejiao for donkeys.

After entertaining the officials, the three villagers got on the boat separately and went to the village against the current, while the others drove away.

The chief left the money to buy bitter salt, and there was nothing left, so he didn't think about the excess, and he could spend it all.

I bought honey, and the honey in winter is more expensive than in spring and summer, but ordinary honey cannot reach the price of rock sugar.

The different honey I bought today is 75 wen to 100 wen a catty, and it is more expensive, and I take it back to those who need it to condition the body and use it as medicine.

Not to mention other medicines, making big honey pills and water honey pills is not good without honey.

In addition to honey, buy some essential oils, which are also medicines, and it is good to use them to make medicinal incense.

Sitting in the car and returning to the village, Zhu Wentian looked at the jar of honey in a daze, and the chief saw it: "Hanhan, want to eat?" How many spoons do you scoop? ”

"No, spring, bees, flowers, honey, raising, um! Hey, hey, hey! Zhu Wentian responded that he wanted to keep bees.

Last year, when the rapeseed was blooming, there were a lot of wild bees flying around, and they were too busy to take care of it.

This year, if you have some free time, you can make bee barrels and beehives to attract wild bees from other places to settle in.

In the spring, the old bees give up their old place to their children and take the colony away to find a new place.

The beekeeper doesn't want the old one to leave, so he builds a new hive to prepare, then splashes water, wets the wings, and eliminates the smell, and it stays.

This winter, I want to build a glass greenhouse, either bring the villagers to dip the flowers themselves, or throw one of the beehives inside.

Now it is all Chinese bees, which are less toxic and do not sting people unless they are under special circumstances.

There is honey in spring, summer, autumn and winter, such as Nanjing's winter pure honey, which is more expensive than other honey.

The local area belongs to Zhangzhou Mansion, and today I bought the winter honey produced there, one hundred and sixty wen a catty.

It's a big deal to plant medicinal flowers in a greenhouse, anyway, you have to raise bees in spring, just when rapeseed flowers bloom.

"Ahh I haven't raised it, doesn't it hurt to sting people? The lieutenant was confused, and he hadn't been stung by a wild bee, so it didn't hurt......

"Don't, village, vegetables, flowers, teach." Zhu Wentian did not answer this kind of question and put forward new ideas.

"Okay, there are other rapeseeds, which will bloom when the time comes, let's teach them beekeeping."

The lieutenant replied and raised his hand to touch the left side of his forehead, where he had a small mark that had been stung by a bee.

When it is stung, it will not be treated, and it is actually scalded with incense, and the result is a mark.

Later, when he was stung again, he had experience, and after that time, he asked people and just smeared the sauce.

"Hanhan, I was stung in this place, and it was scalded with incense at the time, but it turned out that it was okay to smear the sauce."

The lieutenant thought about saying it and let Han Han look at his forehead.

Zhu Wentian took a look, nodded, and hesitated slightly: "Pick out the tail needle and poison sac, use weak alkaline drugs, add tribulus water to clean, and use the bitter salt I bought today to smear the swollen bag, it's almost."

If some people are still not good, I will prescribe medicine and apply it externally and internally, so that the people in our village don't have to care about the cost of medicine.

This perm actually works, but it hurts the enemy and hurts himself. Sometimes being stung by a bee is the same as being stung by a mosquito.

In fact, the miso can indeed alleviate bee stings and mosquito bites under certain circumstances, because it is fermented by beans and contains polyphenols, which under normal conditions, polyphenols are anti-allergic. ”

Li Chang blinked blankly, reached out and touched Hanhan's head: "There was no you at that time!" Afterward...... The blind fortune teller couldn't be found.

If I have the opportunity to meet him again, I will give him a thousand taels of silver, not that you are only worth a thousand taels, but I am worried that I will cause trouble for him if I give too much. ”

"No, raise, hey, hey, hey, hey!" Zhu Wentian shook his head, he raised it when he found it, and it was useless to give money.

If you have more money, you will be remembered outside, and you will be comfortable living in the village, and the blind will be elsewhere, how can you compare to Xiaqiu Village?

……

Before evening, fifty-three cars returned to the village, and the children waiting at the entrance of the village ran back to tell everyone with cheers.

The boat has not yet arrived due to the countercurrent, but fortunately the wind is good today, blowing from north to south, and when the south wind rises, it will start to rain!

One by one, the pigs were carried down and sent to the makeshift pigsty, where the cooked food was placed, and the ropes that bound the hooves were untied, and the pigs lost their temper in an instant, and ran to the trough to eat, and they were hungry.

Looking at the big fat pigs, the villagers laughed, and the boatmen who stayed by the river set off to meet the three salt boats.

They didn't know that there was a pilot profession, but they knew that they had to help guide the other party's ship to a better shore.

Eat bamboo rats for dinner today, affected by the living environment and habits, the taste of bamboo rat meat is good, not fishy.

After killing, you don't need to soak the bamboo rat meat in cold water, wash it directly, slice it, shreds it, fry it, cut it into pieces and stew, and it's almost finely cut to make a squir.

Half an hour later, four ships arrived, and the pilot ship directed three ships to dock.

The villagers stepped forward, prepared the cattle carts, and poured them into the docks, waiting to be unloaded.

There are wooden tracks on which the unloading trucks are pushed, and bags of salt are put on the carts and pushed to the side of the carts.

The sixty people who came were dumbfounded, and they saw the old and the women who were watching, and the children, big and small, who were cheering beside them.

People's clothes are all silk, and only the villagers who carry them temporarily wear linen clothes on their coats.

It's not completely dark, the lanterns are all lit, and the lanterns are still lit on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month? Oil doesn't cost money?

The three men who followed the boat went down first and changed their clothes, which they were now wearing for work.

After helping to unload the goods together, the chief first gave money, and then beckoned sixty people to wash their hands and face and prepare for dinner.

"Dinner and drinking, stay here tonight, don't worry, no one will rob you of your money, more than fifty times is not worth our hands, come, rub your hands with soap."

After giving the money, the chief greeted, and he couldn't tell people to leave immediately, they would rush back desperately, and they would easily fall down suddenly and never get up again.
