Chapter 201: Preparation before going out
Gao Mingcheng was out for two days, and he quietly sold the eight shotguns.
They don't have many guns here, and some people are rushing to buy even bird guns, let alone hunting rifles, and if they have a shotgun in hand, they dare to go into the mountains to hunt wild boars.
The price of a general bird gun is one or two hundred, and you can also get fifty yuan for cheap old goods, but that quality, you'd better not shoot, lest the bird not be killed, and you will injure yourself first!
A good bird gun costs more than two hundred, and this shotgun is naturally more expensive than a bird gun, and the one with a poor color is hundreds better, and the good one can be thousands.
The eight shotguns in Gao Mingcheng's hand were good and bad, he found a powerful middleman, and directly packaged and sold them, selling them for a total of 5,000 yuan.
In addition to the shotgun, he sold the honey in one go, and then got a few hundred dollars.
With this money, Gao Mingcheng finally felt more at ease.
He began to plan when to take Duomei to Yangcheng, it was already hot in June, but it would be even hotter in July and August!
In addition, in mid-July, the early rice is harvested, then the fields are ploughed and the land is prepared, and then the rice is planted and the late rice is planted.
They usually plant early rice and throw seedlings for late rice, but some families will also choose to plant late rice in order to plant better and harvest more.
Therefore, he had to come back from Yangcheng before harvesting the early rice.
He told many beauties about this and made many beauties prepare in advance.
Many beauties had long known that Gao Mingcheng was going to take her to Yangcheng Mayor to see, and she was looking forward to it, but when the matter really came, she was still ecstatic.
"How many days are we going?" A lot of beauty asked expectantly and curiously.
"At least half a month." Gao Mingcheng said that he took a lot of beauty to learn more this time, so naturally he couldn't rush it, and it would take a few days to go back and forth, and it would take a few days to go to the clothing market to find out the market.
"What about the family's land and livestock for so long?" Many beauties were stunned, they didn't expect to go out for so long.
It is not easy for rural people to go far away, because almost every household grows vegetables and raises livestock, and once they go out, they cannot take care of these things.
Gao Mingcheng asked rhetorically: "How do you think it should be arranged?" ”
Duo Mei thought about it, and after a while, she said: "Let my brother help take care of the ground, he doesn't talk much, he works every day, and the work in the field is good." ”
The brother in her mouth is Zhang Chengyuan, the husband of her second sister.
As a son-in-law, Zhang Chengyuan does not have a strong sense of existence, he is immersed in work every day, rarely interacts with people, and whenever he is a little empty, he will carry a hoe into the mountains to dig medicine.
In that environment, he kept a medical book, which can be seen to be micro-pharmacology, and he used to collect medicines more or less for his own use, and later Gao Mingcheng came forward to buy medicinal materials, and he was more active in collecting medicines, and after the medicinal materials were concocted, he sold them to Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng naturally accepted it, and then found a time to take it to the county and sell it to the pharmaceutical factory, since he had a relationship with the pharmaceutical factory, he would go to the pharmaceutical factory to sell medicinal materials about once a month or two.
Last time, Brother Qiang went to the pharmaceutical factory to find him, but fortunately, the doorman of the pharmaceutical factory was vigilant, not only did not tell Gao Mingcheng's identity, but also saw Brother Qiang's intention, and then the pharmaceutical factory quickly told Gao Guobing about it.
That's why Gao Guobing led people to arrest Brother Qiang in time.
Gao Mingcheng nodded and said, "Okay, let him take care of the vegetables in the field, and give him some money then." ”
"Hey." Many beauties responded happily, her second sister's family did not have much land, and her brother was hardworking and willing to work, but he was excluded, but whenever he went to open up the wasteland, he would be talked about, and some people even strongly said that he would not let him open up the wasteland.
Zhang Chengyuan didn't dare to argue with people, so he naturally didn't go to open up the wasteland, and now he has extra time, spending time in the mountains, looking for all kinds of medicinal materials.
The vegetables in the field are handed over to Zhang Chengyuan to take care of, and the cattle and sheep can also be taken care of by him, and he only needs to take the cattle and sheep out to eat grass in the morning, and then take care of them more halfway, such as when the grass is finished, they will change places, or the sun is dry, and they will find a shady place and so on.
Vegetables and cattle and sheep are taken care of, as for dogs......
"Black Tiger, Elf!" Gao Mingcheng beckoned to the two dogs, who were playing in the yard, and when they heard the call, they immediately ran over and circled around Gao Mingcheng.
"Black Tiger, Elf, are you going to eat and drink at home, or are you going to Grandma's house?" Gao Mingcheng asked.
The black tiger and the elf immediately screamed, as if to answer the question, uh, just the language barrier!
"Okay, I'll talk to Grandma Xi then, and if you go, let her prepare food for you." Gao Mingcheng pretended to understand, touched the heads of the two dogs, one person and two dogs were playing, and many beauties were pursed and laughing on the side.
Yangcheng...... Where? How long does it take?
She began to think, excited to go around in circles. She soon ran to her second sister's house, told her second sister the news, and said that she would let her brother manage the vegetables and cattle and sheep in the field, and would give some money at that time.
Zhang Chengyuan is also at home, repairing the hoe, the wooden handle of the hoe is a little loose, he is cutting a piece of wood of the right size, and then using a hammer to hammer the wood chip into the gap in the handle to make it tight.
At this time, when he heard that many beauties would give money, he immediately waved his hand and refused, saying: "Don't want money, don't want money, just do me a favor." ”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he was glared at by many jades, and many jades said with some yin and yang weirdness: "This is not to help for a day or two, but for half a month!" Where can I do it if I don't give money? Besides, people are going to make a lot of money, where can they look at these small money. ”
A lot of Mei's original excitement suddenly disappeared. The smile on her face was a little unbearable, and she had a breath in her heart, and she wanted to quarrel with her second sister, you know, her temper has always been hot, but she is not a bun that is obedient.
It's just that since she married Gao Mingcheng, her life has become easier and more hopeful, and the rest of the village no longer bullies and excludes her, so her violent temper has been reined in, and she can live happily, who wants to quarrel with people every day?
Many beauties stood up, endured and endured, and finally decided not to bother with her for the sake of her second sister being pregnant.
But to share the joy, it is obvious that her second sister is not a good object, so many beauties left and went to find Gao Shufang.
Since the two of them studied tailoring together, their sister-in-law has gotten along very well.
Gao Mingcheng also went to Grandma's house, and the two dogs followed him and went together.
He also carried a little rabbit in his hand, which he happened to see when he was practicing boxing in the mountains this morning, and he did not hit it with a throwing knife or a stone, but with the speed of running, he caught it and caught it.
Last time, Gao Zhuang told him that he wanted to raise rabbits, and he strongly supported it, and promised that if he caught a rabbit, he would give it to Gao Zhuang to raise.
Now that almost a month has passed, Gao Zhuang has built a rabbit pen in the backyard, and has raised twenty or thirty rabbits one after another, most of which were sent by Gao Mingcheng.
Rabbits also eat grass, but raising rabbits is still different from raising cattle and sheep, cattle and sheep can be led out, let them eat grass by themselves, but rabbits are not good, if you lead the rabbit out, then you can't bring it back!
Therefore, to raise rabbits, you have to mow the grass and feed the rabbits.
In addition to eating grass, rabbits will also eat vegetables, some old vegetable leaves in the ground, you can give rabbits to eat, and Gao Zhuang heard that rabbits will eat carrots and pumpkins, and then specially planted some carrots and pumpkins, planning to wait until the winter when the grass is less, you can give the rabbit as a ration to eat.
"Granny fine, tall and strong." As soon as Gao Mingcheng entered the door, he greeted him.
It's almost noon at this time, and Grandma Xi and Gao Zhuang are at home, sitting under the eaves to choose vegetables.
"Brother Mingcheng! Did you catch another rabbit? Gao Zhuang saw the live rabbit Gao Mingcheng was carrying, and immediately smiled.
He walked over, took the rabbit in Gao Mingcheng's hand, and put it in the rabbit pen.
The pen is made of bricks and plastered with cement to prevent the rabbit from escaping.
He put the rabbit in his hand into the rabbit pen, then turned his head to Gao Mingcheng and said, "Brother Mingcheng, there are two rabbits in my family that are pregnant!" I asked someone and said that in a few days, the cubs would be born! ”
His voice was full of excitement and anticipation, and he couldn't wait for the rabbit to give birth. Rabbits can give birth to six to twelve rabbits in a litter, and as long as the rabbits are pregnant and give birth normally, it will be easy to reproduce next.
Gao Mingcheng stood outside and observed, and found that Gao Zhuang was indeed very attentive, these rabbits were well raised, and two of the female rabbits had big bellies, and their appetites were also very good, and they had been eating there.
"It's good, raise it for a few more months, and then you can sell it for money." Gao Mingcheng praised with a smile.
After reading the rabbit, Gao Mingcheng came to Grandma Xi's side again and said, "Grandma Xi, I will take Duomei to Yangcheng the day after tomorrow, and if the black tiger and the elf come to your house, you will feed them for a few days." ”
When Grandma Xi heard this, she immediately agreed, "Okay, don't worry, I'll give them food." ”
The black tiger and the elf have both lived here for a while, and the grandmother is still rich here, so they can be regarded as having a companion.
Oh, Fa Cai is the dog raised by Gao Zhuang, and it was also given to Gao Zhuang by Gao Yue.
"Brother Mingcheng, are you going to Yangcheng? How long to go? Gao Zhuang immediately asked, and said: "Xiuman's mother's family said that in a few days, she would come over to give her stomach money, and then the family would have a table of wine." If you're going to go for a lot of days, I'll go to Xiuman's house and tell them to come back a few days later. ”
Speaking of this matter, He Xiuman also looked at Gao Mingcheng with concern.
There are not many relatives and friends on Gao Zhuang's side, among which Gao Mingcheng's weight is very heavy, if Gao Mingcheng is not there when he is drinking, it will be somewhat unbeautiful.
Besides, it's okay for her mother's side to come a few days later or a few days earlier.
Gao Mingcheng only knew about it, so he said: "There is no time for the time being, it will take about half a month!" ”
Gao Zhuang immediately said: "Okay, I'll go to Xiuman's house tomorrow, talk to my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and tell them to come back half a month later." ”
Gao Mingcheng understood what Gao Zhuang meant, and his heart was also a little warm, and he said with a smile: "Okay! ”
