Chapter 105: Cutting Mushrooms and Brewing Medicinal Wine (Asking for Push)
Although there are a lot of things on the farm, with Zhao Zhicheng and others to help take care of it, as a farmer's Mushanhe, his daily life is still very leisurely. Usually, what he is most concerned about is the ginseng seedlings that are transplanted to the contracted forest.
As Mu Shanhe thought, many transplanted ginseng seedlings did not survive. But there are still nearly forty percent of the transplanted ginseng seedlings, which have adapted to the environment of the contracted forest and have begun to thrive in the contracted forest, which is what he wants to see.
"With a survival rate of 40%, it seems that the transplanting effect is good. It's just that whether these surviving seedlings can survive the next cold winter and heat is also a question worth considering. But no matter what, there is hope in the end. ”
Although it is said that the mountain god space, it can also be used as a ginseng field for wild ginseng cultivation. But for Mu Shanhe, he hopes that these wild ginseng seedlings can take root in the contracted forest, and even thrive in the contracted forest in the future.
Only in this way will the value of the contracted forest continue to improve in the future. With such a natural ginseng field, Mushanhe will at least not have to worry about the lack of wild ginseng in the future. The greater the quantity, the greater the return in the future.
While inspecting these transplanted wild ginseng, Mushanhe also paid attention to the situation of the contracted forest. Under his leadership, Zhao Zhicheng and the others were fine, and they would also go into the mountains with machetes to cut down those miscellaneous trees and bushes.
Keep the trees that will grow in the future, and make the whole contracted forest look a little more refreshing. In fact, after the beginning of spring, they also occasionally went into the mountains to collect wild vegetables and mountain mushrooms that were unearthed one after another.
The third daughter, who is in charge of raising poultry on the farm, saw these refreshing wild vegetables and mushrooms, and said happily: "I really didn't expect that the wild vegetables and mushrooms in this mountain taste so good." ”
"Yes! In the past, if I wanted to eat in the city, I had to go to the market to buy it, and the price was not cheap, and some of it was not very fresh. ”
"It's normal! Although there are mountains near where we live, the quality of the wild vegetables growing on the mountains is not good. There are also these mushrooms, we can only buy dry goods, and the taste of fresh mushrooms is called fresh! ”
In addition to tasting these mountain delicacies, you can eat them without spending money at all. The Makiyama River, which often sits by the reservoir to fish, will also raise the fish it catches in cages.
In this way, when you want to eat fish, you can go directly to the cage and catch it. When the farmed chickens, ducks and geese began to lay eggs, the two children who came with their parents finally realized what it means to eat eggs until they vomited.
In June, seeing that the bred male deer began to grow their first stubble of deer antlers, Mu Shanhe also explained: "Lao Zhao, you go on a trip with Brother Tie and bring back all those customized wine tanks." Also, is the multigrain wine all set? ”
"It's set! Several merchants in the town who specialize in multigrain wine have made a lot of wine, and they can go and pull it at any time. ”
"Okay, when the vat is brought back to be cleaned and dried, then the wine will be brought back. The wine cellar we dug will also start storing wine this year. These medicinal wines will become the signboard of our farm in the future, but we can't be careless. ”
"Cheng, I'll definitely do it for you!"
If he didn't know that Mu Shanhe didn't make money from the farm, Zhao Zhicheng was really worried that the monthly wages and food expenses paid to them might have eaten Mu Shanhe down. But in reality, the farm is constantly spending money.
At the same time, those who were recruited and joined the escort team last year were also assigned tasks by Mu Shanhe. Go to the south and buy a batch of more expensive Chinese herbal medicines. Every once in a while, Mushanhe has to go to the bank to transfer money.
Correspondingly, a large number of precious Chinese medicinal materials have also been transported to the farm for storage. Although I don't know, how many precious medicinal materials are used to make medicinal wine. But in Mu Shanhe's view, no matter how many precious Chinese medicinal materials there are, there is no worry.
Similar to Cordyceps and saffron, which were rarely seen in later generations, such as Cordyceps and saffron, and even seahorses and other precious medicinal materials that were rarely seen in later generations, Mu Shanhe spared no expense to purchase a large number of them, and even established corresponding purchase channels.
When it was time to harvest the antler velvet, Zhao Zhicheng and the others were also surprised when they saw the sika deer that came over obediently and had their antlers sawed off: "Mu Shao, don't you need to take anesthetics or something?" ”
"No, you don't! I raised these sika deer, and they are very obedient. If it were you, it wouldn't work. ”
As Mu Shanhe said, these sika deer are so well-behaved and do not resist, and they also know that Mu Shanhe will not hurt them. Looking at the cut deer antler velvet and the blood taken from the antler velvet, Mu Shanhe also felt that the quality was very good.
Correspondingly, the sika deer that cut the antler velvet will also give corresponding feedback. That is a nutritious meal that he prepares himself and specially prepares for sika deer or animals. After eating a nutritious meal, the sika deer was able to recover quickly.
After concocting deer antler tablets, Mushanhe began to concoct medicinal liquor with different effects according to different medicinal materials. To the surprise of Zhao Zhicheng and others, there were even animal bones in many wine tanks.
Seeing the label, Zhao Zhicheng was also very curious: "Mu Shao, what kind of animal bones are these?" ”
"There are wolves, bears and even leopards. Although I also want to do tigers, I haven't got it yet. ”
Even though the animal protection law has not yet come out, tiger bones are still hard to come by. It's just that through Xu Siwen's relationship, he still got two dead bones, which were also soaked in a separate cylinder by him.
Seeing the wine vats that have been sealed into the wine cellar one after another, Zhao Zhicheng and others who have drunk these medicinal wines also know that the medicinal effect of these medicinal wines is indeed very domineering and effective. In the future, they should not worry about drinking myrrh wine.
Just looking at the medicinal materials added into the wine tank, Zhao Zhicheng and others also knew that it was no wonder that Mu Shanhe would buy Chinese medicinal materials from all over the country. These medicinal materials are all needed to make medicinal wine, and some of them cannot be bought locally.
But no matter what, seeing the hundreds of jars moved into the wine cellar and started to cellar the wine vats, Zhao Zhicheng and others are also looking forward to the arrival of the time when the wine vats are unsealed. Presumably, at that time, each of these medicinal wines would be worth a lot of money!
With the breeding of sika deer, the first stubble of deer antler velvet was successfully removed, and those bred roe deer, Mu Shanhe did not rush to take the sachet. Because he knew that musk should be harvested until autumn, and then in September or October.
After brewing this year's medicinal wine, Mu Shanhe also felt that he could relax for a while. It's just that to many people's surprise, before July, Mu Shanhe sent Sun Xuan, Wang Jianguo and others to the border city.
Taking the opportunity of chatting in private, Mu Shanhe also said directly: "Xuanzi, Jianguo, after you go to the border city, remember not to cross the line." What you have to do is to observe the trading situation there and report the news in time. ”
"Good! We used to have only eyes and no mouths, right? ”
"Hmmm! If you feel bored, you can go to Team Zhou for a drink and ask him about the current border trade situation. Although the rumors are very tight now, I believe that in private, there are still people who take risks, and he should know more about the inside story. ”
"Understood!"
"If you have something you can't solve, don't hesitate to call me. On my side, I probably won't have to wait until around September to go over there to take a look. Even if the trade is restarted, it will have to wait until it snows on the side of the border city. ”
"Okay, Mu Shao, we promise to complete the task."
"Hmmm! If you encounter someone who doesn't follow the rules and can solve it in front of the official, go to the Zhou team. If you can't solve it, go to Safe House Three. There's a guy there, but before you go, you have to call for instructions. ”
"Good!"
Knowing that Mu Shanhe was there, he specially reserved a guy for them, Sun Xuan and Wang Jianguo were naturally very happy. Although life on the farm is laid-back, they prefer exciting and adventurous work.
Thankfully, their psychological condition has basically recovered. In terms of emotional control, I have been able to stay calm. And at this moment, they also know that only by following the mountains and rivers can the future be bright!
