Chapter 103: Up the Mountain
The overnight spring rain revived the entire Sun Island, and when she opened the door, Wen Xian felt that this padded jacket would not be able to be worn for too long.
The medical hall will open in four days, and Zhu Qing will not come back until three or five days later, so Wen Xian simply carried the basket on her back and went to the mountains of Sun Island.
She didn't think that Zhu Qing could come back so soon, after all, from Sun Island to the town, it would take two days and one night to arrive without making a mistake.
Not to mention that the people who went out to ask for a doctor before have no news so far.
For some reason, Wen Xian felt that this was not so simple. I'm afraid this is a troublesome matter, enough for Zhu Qing to deal with it for a while.
It's just that as soon as she opened the door with the basket on her back, she ran into Xue Xiaohua who came to return the bamboo tube.
"Sister Wen, I'll return the bamboo tube. It contains the cod porridge I boiled this morning, Sister Wen, you can eat it while it's hot. Xue Xiaohua finished speaking with a smile, and then noticed that Wen Xian was carrying the basket.
She tilted her head and wondered, "Sister Wen is going out?" ”
"yes, I'm going to go up the mountain." Wen Xian continued to close the door with the movement of her hand, and then took the bamboo tube and opened it and took a sip, "It's not bad, I just didn't have breakfast." ”
She explained, "The others won't invite you in and sit before they get up." ”
After coming here, she said that she would probably go out a lot in the future. Others stay at home and do their homework if they don't want to go out.
If you want to go out, especially if you want to go out with her, then you have to wait, she will go to find out the situation first.
Besides, she didn't want to be watched by anyone so quickly. So, today she came out alone.
With this cod porridge full of bamboo tubes, she could stay in the mountains for a long time and come back later.
"It's okay, it's okay." Xue Xiaohua hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Sister Wen hasn't been to the mountain yet, it just so happens that I'm going to pick mushrooms on the mountain, let's go together?" ”
It turned out that everyone in Sister Wen's family got up late, and she was quite embarrassed to come over so early.
It rained last night, and the mushrooms were the freshest after the rain, and she had planned to go to the mountains after delivering the bamboo tubes.
Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and said, "That's a good feeling, it's right to have you lead the way." ”
She only heard about the way to the mountain before, and there happened to be a way to go up to Xue Xiaohua's house.
Wen Xian simply followed Xue Xiaohua all the way, waited for Xue Xiaohua to come out of the house with a basket, and then went up the mountain together.
On the way up the mountain, they met Zhang San's sister-in-law. However, when Sister-in-law Zhang saw them, she looked like she had seen something, and hurriedly walked away from another way.
Xue Xiaohua said inexplicably: "We can't eat people, what is she running?" ”
Wen Xian smiled and said, "Don't pay attention to her, many people come to your mountain on weekdays?" ”
Sun Island as a whole is more than ten times larger than Death Island, and the mountains on the island are naturally much larger than Death Island.
Unlike them on Death Island, the people on Sun Island choose to live on the sunny side. On the other side, there are cliffs or forests.
In other words, if you come from the sea, you can only enter the village by this road.
Other roads, whether cliffs or forests, are unsafe and there is a high chance of getting lost.
Wen Xian felt that this place was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it also scored who attacked and defended. If you encounter a strong sailor, no matter how difficult it is, you can take it down.
On the road behind Xue Xiaohua's house, it is the closest foot of the mountain to the village. At the foot of the mountain, there are many people digging wild vegetables and picking mushrooms.
They didn't react much when they saw Wen Xian and Xue Xiaohua, they were far away from each other, and they were working with their heads buried, so they didn't see it.
Xue Xiaohua nodded and said, "That's right, when we don't rush to the sea or don't go to sea, we will go to the mountains to pick mushrooms and chop firewood." Some of them are powerful, and they will go into the mountains to hunt. ”
However, the people in the village don't spend much time in the mountains. After all, if they can go to sea, the men in the village will choose to go to sea to fish.
Wen Xian is clear, and on the whole, the villagers on Sun Island are self-sufficient. As long as you're not too lazy, you won't be short of food.
The vegetables they grow themselves can already meet their daily needs, and digging wild vegetables and picking mushrooms is just a change of taste.
What they want to do most is to make money. Only when you earn money can you buy daily necessities and food.
As for money, it is to go to sea to fish and sell it for money.
Speaking of fishing and selling money, Wen Xian was curious: "Where do you all go to sell seafood?" ”
The people of Sun Island can fish, and so can others. Compared to people who live on the land coast, Sun Island does not have an advantage.
"Go to the dock in town and sell it." Xue Xiaohua said, "Qing Gongzi opened a shop to receive goods at the dock in the town, and he collected all the goods pulled over from our island. ”
Of course, we also receive other people's goods. In the same way, if the people on the island want to sell to someone else, they can do so.
Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and said, "So, Qing Gongzi's business is this seafood business?" ”
Although the seafood business is profitable, it is coastal and not his own. I don't know how Zhu Qing did business, it seems to be doing quite well.
However, Xue Xiaohua shook her head and said: "Young Master Qing has also opened a restaurant, and there are also restaurants in the county, and it is said that it has also opened to Fucheng and other places." ”
Qing Gongzi's business is big, and according to his family business, their family could have moved to Fucheng a long time ago and lived a landlord-like life.
But Lord Zhu Si is here, and their family is reluctant to Lord Zhu Si, so they have been staying on Sun Island.
"That's pretty impressive." Wen Xian nodded in agreement.
If you open a chain restaurant, it's no wonder. If Zhu Qing has a way, he is willing to pay his blood. Transporting the harvested seafood to other inland areas is another sign of making money.
Thinking of the slightly fishy cod porridge in the bamboo tube, Wen Xian suddenly had a way to make money. But this idea can only be verified after Zhu Qing returns.
It was not easy for her to ask Xue Xiaohua directly, so she could only rest assured about this matter first, and seriously start digging wild vegetables and picking mushrooms.
It's just that the wild vegetables and mushrooms at the foot of the mountain have been picked, and she wants to go deep into the mountains.
Xue Xiaohua hurriedly pulled the person back: "You can't go into the mountain, there are wild boars in the mountains." We are weak, and if we do, we will be terrible. ”
They just dig at the foot of the mountain on weekdays, and as for the mountain, they have their own village hunters or men who go in to hunt.
Wen Xian patted her shoulder and said, "What are you afraid of, I've even killed wolves, and I'm still afraid of wild boars?" By the way, I also fought wild boars. ”
Although it was an accident, it was also fought.
However, she just went by herself, and she couldn't let Xue Xiaohua take the adventure with her.
However, Xue Xiaohua quit, she couldn't persuade Wen Xian, so she had to follow.
Wen Xian had no choice but to go with her.
I have to say that there are many treasures in the mountains. Not long after entering the mountains, Wen Xian found a yam.
She paused, picked up her hoe and dig. This little hoe is still Xue Xiaohua's, and sure enough, you need professional farm tools to do farm work.
