Back to seven or seven kinds of fields to raise children

"Thank you, sir." Xu Shiyan hurriedly thanked Old Wangtou. "If anyone inquires about me in the future, just drive him away."

The way to earn money that I finally found, although I don’t earn much, and it can’t last for a long time, it can’t be destroyed by others.

"Success, don't worry, your uncle Wang will take care of any trivial matters."

Lao Wang took Xu Shiyan's food several times, so of course he had to do his best.

Xu Shiyan thanked Old Wangtou and left the bureau compound.

He knew that Chen Deyong was sure that the cat was watching in some corner, so he decided to wander around the town a few more times and walk the dog.

The forestry bureau store, Fusong store, non-staple food store, production material store, labor insurance store, medicinal material store, anyway, he has money in his pocket, so Xu Shiyan went around twice.

After wandering around all these places, Xu Shiyan checked the time and saw that it was noon before heading back.

Xu Shiyan walked in front, followed by Chen Deyong who was dripping with sweat a few hundred meters behind.

This morning, he almost broke his leg from walking.

The point is, Xu Shiyan wandered into the store, and the store was cool and not hot.

But Chen Deyong can't do it outside, basking in the sun, it's really tired and hot.

If it wasn't for figuring out what Xu Shiyan was going to do, how could Chen Deyong suffer this crime?

The more Chen Deyong walked away, the angrier he became, why didn't he think that the third child of the Xu family was hated so much?

Seeing that Xu Shiyan was walking towards the big house this time, Chen Deyong simply stopped following and sat under the big tree by the side of the road to rest in the cool.

This morning he was tossing, it was so hot.

Xu Shiyan played tricks on Chen Deyong once, but he didn't take it seriously. When he got home, he began to prepare for the release of the mountain.

In mid-August, the beginning of July in the lunar calendar, at this time, the crops in the fields have grown, so there is no need to shovel and weed.

At the same time, the ginseng in the deep mountains and old forests, bearing the bright red ginseng seeds, attracts mallet birds to peck at them, as well as countless people who dream of digging ginseng to make a fortune.

This is what Fangshan people said, "Red Hammer" city.

Ginseng is the king of all herbs, the first of Chinese medicine, and the first of the three treasures of the Kanto.

People in the Changbai Mountain area call ginseng "bangchui", and they call ginseng digging in deep mountains and old forests "Fangshan".

Every year in Red Hammer City, many people, either in gangs or alone, break into the deep mountains and old forests, looking for opportunities to make a fortune.

"Are you really going into the mountains? How dangerous is it in the deep mountains and old forests? Our family has saved some money now, do you have to take this risk?"

Seeing that Xu Shiyan was busy packing up the things for going into the mountain, Su Anying asked with a worried expression.

"Of course I want to go, if you find a big one, you can sell it for a lot of money.

We are living on our own now, spending money everywhere, what can we do with the little money from selling fish? "

Xu Shiyan didn't raise his head, and continued to pack his things.

It is not a day or two to go to the mountains to release the mountains. You have to live in the mountains at night, and you have to prepare everything for food and use.

"We can't live in Aunt Li's house all the time, we have to have a nest of our own.

We have children in the future, do we still live in someone else's house? "Xu Shiyan said while packing his things.

Hearing her husband talking about the child, Su Anying subconsciously covered her lower abdomen with her hands, and stopped talking.

"Then you can at least find a few people as companions. How can I rest assured that you go into the mountain by yourself?" After a while, Su Anying said.

Xu Shiyan heard the worry and distress in his daughter-in-law's words, looked up at Su Anying, and waved to her. "Come on, daughter-in-law, come and sit."

Su Anying sat down beside Xu Shiyan as promised, Xu Shiyan hooked his hand and hugged his daughter-in-law in his arms.

"I have lived in the big house for seven years, and I am very familiar with the surrounding mountains, rivers and rivers. Don't worry, I will be fine by myself."

In his previous life, he went to the mountain countless times, so he is very experienced in this area, and this area is very familiar, so there is really no need to worry.

"I only go out for six or seven days, and I don't go too far. If I don't encounter big goods, I will come back quickly.

You are well at home, if you need anything, go to our mother. "Xu Shiyan put his arms around his daughter-in-law and comforted him softly.

It's not that he has to go alone, the main reason is that he has never been on a mountain in his life.Ordinary ginseng leaders are unwilling to bring their first-time leaders into the mountain. They think it is troublesome, so they just shirk and say that there are enough people.

Xu Shiyan did the same thing, if others didn't take him with him, then he would just pick him up on his own.

Su Anying is not an unreasonable person, she is just worried about her husband, seeing that Xu Shiyan has made up his mind, she is not easy to stop her.

So I went to stack a thick stack of pancakes for Xu Shiyan, fry a jar of sauce, and fry some small fish for something.

Everything was done carefully and packed into a big rucksack.

To release the mountain, you must choose a good day to enter the mountain. You don’t choose the 15th day of the junior high school, and you don’t choose the fourth day of the junior high school.

On the morning of the third day of July, Xu Shiyan packed his bags and set off with sixty to seventy kilograms of things on his back.

The big house is right by the river, and there are stone lazies everywhere on both sides of the river. Less than twenty miles south of the big house village, there is a naturally formed cave on a stone ladle.

There are stone tables and chairs in the cave, just like nature, the locals say that it may be the place where gods lived, so it is also called "immortal cave" by the locals.

Xu Shiyan vaguely remembered that in his last life, it seemed that this year, someone in the village dug a large item near the Immortal Cave.

So, when he left the village, he headed south all the way, in the direction of the Immortal Cave.

The big house is located in a remote place, and the traffic conditions are not conducive to logging, so the surrounding forest damage is not so serious.

The further south we went, the villages disappeared, and the woods became denser and denser.

The thick and big trees have luxuriant branches and leaves, covering the sky and the sun. Even in the hot summer of August, the woods are not hot and hot, and it is cool everywhere.

Living in the emerald green forest, breathing the fresh and moist air in the forest, listening to the crisp chirping of birds.

All this sounds beautiful, but in reality?Mosquitoes are most likely to breed in cool, humid places.

These blood-sucking guys sense the presence of people, and will follow them anytime and anywhere, looking for opportunities to speak.

In addition to mosquitoes, there are also small planer adzes, blindfolds, etc., which are constantly flying around people. Once they find an opportunity, they will bite hard.

Therefore, most of the people who enter the mountain smoke, which can smoke away those annoying little things.

There are ways for non-smokers, too.

A piece of old beef liver is broken off from a tree and set ablaze, or held in the hand, or wrapped with a branch and tied on the head.

There is no open flame when the old beef liver burns, only blue and white smoke, which is the nemesis of mosquitoes, so it can be more comfortable.

Chapter 18 Rules of Fangshan

The history of ginseng mining in Changbai Mountain can be traced back to the period of Jurchen or Bohai Kingdom.

At that time, ginseng was a tribute to the Central Plains dynasty by the ethnic minorities in Northeast China, which shows its value.

Hundreds of thousands of years of development, countless ancestors who shuttled back and forth in the deep mountains and old forests to find ginseng, left behind a lot of experience and rules.

In the past, there were special ginseng gangs, who pointed to the mountains to dig ginseng to live. These people went into the mountains in spring and went out before the snow fell.

According to the different seasons of ginseng growth, the season of releasing the mountain can be divided into Yacao City, Qingcao City, Leek Flower Market, Xiaojiabianer City, Dajiabianer City, Qinghamtou City, Honghamtou City, and Huangluosan.

Among them, it is easiest to count Red Hammer City.

At this time, the ginseng seeds are ripe, and the bright red clusters are swaying in the wind, as if they are waving to people.

A little red in the green bushes is the most conspicuous.

Therefore, most people will rush into the mountain at this time.

I hope to meet a big tree in the vast forest, dig it back and sell it for a good price, and improve my life.

Xu Shiyan carried his bags on his back and traveled through the forest, all the way to the vicinity of the Immortal Cave.

He was alone, and he didn't plan to go too far, so he designated this place with a radius of more than ten miles as a mountain farm.

Let the mountain people enter the mountain, the first thing is to worship the old man of the mountain god.

Use three stones, two vertical and one horizontal to build the "Lord's Mansion", which is the temple of the old man of the mountain god.

Put three twigs in front of the old man's mansion instead of incense, kneel down and pray for the god of the mountain to bless you and make you rich.

After worshiping the mountain god, you have to choose a hillside facing the wind and facing the sun, and build a hut, which is the shack where the mountain people live.

First cut three wooden poles with a fast axe, and then pick up some soft bark of poplar and elm to tie the wooden poles to support a tripod.

The whole piece of birch bark was peeled off from the birch tree, and the top was covered with thatch to prevent rain, and the inside was covered with hay and animal skins to prevent moisture.

After the ground is set up, we have to cut some dry firewood around.

The night in Changbai Mountain is very cool, and there are many wild animals. A fire can be used to keep warm, drive away mosquitoes, prevent wild animals, and guide the lost people.

The placement of the firewood is also particular, and it must be followed, which means smooth.

After finishing these tasks, most of the day passed, so I lit a fire to boil water, ate and rested.

After breakfast the next morning, we began to let the mountains officially go, also known as pressing the mountains, opening the mountains, pressing the scorpion, and samumcao.

If you enter the mountain in groups and there are many people, everyone should stand together and shout in unison before pressing down on the mountain. The purpose is to scare away the wild animals, which is also called Huangshan.

Xu Shiyan was alone, and relying on the fact that this place was not too far from the big house, and there were not many wild animals, he saved the Huangshan Mountain, and directly left the shack to wander around the mountain with a Suobao stick in his hand.

Suobao stick, also called Suobo stick, is a six-foot-long wooden stick with a red string tied to the top, and copper coins tied to both ends of the red string.

The vegetation is lush in the forest, and I don't know what is hidden in the grass.

The Fangshan people hold Suobao sticks in their hands, and as they walk, they use the sticks to poke the bushes and tree trunks to scare away snakes or other small animals hiding in them.

At the same time, you can also poke weeds and find ginseng.

Every time you walk a certain distance, you have to "beat the kidnapper", that is, break the twig at ninety degrees to use it as a mark, indicating that this place has already been passed.

It is not easy to walk around in the mountains. You can't talk, and you can't shout when you see anything.

Xu Shiyan went into the mountain alone, which saved some trouble.

I walked around slowly, my eyes kept wandering in the grass, not letting go of every inch of land, every flower and plant.

When you are tired, you can "take a squat", that is, rest, when you are hungry, you can "take a meal", that is, eat, and when you are addicted to smoking, you can "take a fire".

"Na" means auspicious and smooth in Manchu, and it's all about getting big ginseng.

Xu Shiyan wandered around the mountains for a day, but he didn't "open his eyes", so he had to go back to the cave to rest.

It is not uncommon for the mountain people to go into the mountain for a few days without "opening their eyes". Xu Shiyan was not discouraged, and proceeded to cook, cook and sleep step by step.

It's just that at night, there was a faint howling of wolves in the distance, and Xu Shiyan didn't sleep well.

It started to rain in the middle of the night, and although it stopped raining in the morning, the temperature was very low.Xu Shiyan changed into a ragged leather jacket and ripped leather pants, and then put on a raincoat.

The leather jacket and leather trousers were all found by Mrs. Li for him. When he was young, Old Li often went to the mountains to release mountains. Now he is old enough to see ginseng on the mountains. These things are kept at home.

Hearing that Xu Shiyan said that he wanted to go into the mountains, Mrs. Li took out all the old man's household belongings and gave them to Xu Shiyan.

It had just rained, and the leaves and grass were covered with crystal raindrops. When the wind blew it down, it was another light rain.

Xu Shiyan was wearing a leather jacket, leather pants, and a raincoat, but he wasn't afraid. He still held a rope stick in his hand and wandered in another direction.

After walking for half an afternoon, my eyes suddenly brightened, and a little red stood out among the green leaves in front of me.

Xu Shiyan walked over quickly and came to the front, carefully looked at it, and it really was a small ginseng seed.

Looking down along the ginseng seeds, four palm-shaped compound leaves grow on the purple-black stems.

Ginseng, according to different growth years and different biological characteristics of different years, can be divided into "three flowers", "slap palm", "two Jiazi", "dengtaizi", "four leaves", "five leaves" from small to large. ", "Six leaves".

If it is garden ginseng, it can grow to five or six leaves in the six-year growth period.

However, the growth cycle of wild ginseng is very long, and each stage takes several years or decades, especially the last few stages, and it is possible to grow one more leaf after hundreds of years.

That is to say, seeing the leaves of ginseng, the more leaves, the bigger and more valuable the ginseng may be.

Generally, five leaves can produce big goods, and six leaves can keep big ones.

Four leaves, that is, four leaves, the ginseng underneath will not be very big.

Going into the mountains to open your eyes and meeting four leaves is actually unlucky in the eyes of many people.

Xu Shiyan stared at the ginseng tree for a while, and then called out, "The club."

This is called Shouting Mountain. According to legend, ginseng can run when it becomes a spirit. When it meets a ginseng, it shouts a club, and the ginseng froze in fright and stopped.

"How many leaves?" If there are many people coming, other people will ask after hearing it. This is called Jieshan.

"Maul, do you want to take it?" This is to say the size of the ginseng, and then ask whether to dig it.
