Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 187 Gathering the Herbs

After all, there are two ginseng plants here!

Not long after, Gu Qingzhi successfully dug out the first plant.

She picked up the ginseng, took a quick look at it, and then said to her brother, "Brother, this one should be around thirty or forty years old."

Gu Yan took the ginseng, examined it carefully, nodded, and agreed: "It should be about the same."

The two men put the ginseng aside, wrapped it with cloth, and then began to carefully dig out the second plant.

It was indeed difficult to dig out this ginseng, but when it was successfully dug out, both of them were very satisfied.

Judging from its appearance, this ginseng must have been growing for seventy or eighty years!

"Brother, do you think this ginseng can be sold for several hundred guan?"

"Yeah, that should be okay."

The two of them carefully wrapped the ginseng and put it away.

At this time, Gu Qingzhi suddenly felt a little hungry.

Gu Yan had not mentioned this matter originally, but after she said this, he seemed to feel hungry.

"Then let's find a suitable place quickly, and I'll make you a roast chicken."

Gu Hao quickly interrupted, "Brother, I want to eat roasted rabbit!"

Gu Hao couldn't help but salivate at the thought of the golden, crispy and fragrant roasted rabbit meat.

The three of them walked along the way, and finally...

"There's a small waterfall ahead, let's go there."

So, the three of them divided the work and cooperated.

Gu Yan was responsible for dealing with pheasants and rabbits by the pool under the waterfall, while Gu Qingzhi and Gu Hao were responsible for collecting firewood.

Gu Yan noticed that there were fish swimming in the small pool below the waterfall.

He was overjoyed and said to Gu Qingzhi who came back with firewood: "Qingqing, do you want to eat grilled fish?"

"Yes, brother. But are there really fish here?" Gu Qingzhi asked doubtfully.

"There should be."

Gu Qingzhi quickly put down the firewood and ran to the pond, where she saw a big grass carp jumping out of the water in front of her.

Gu Qingzhi was terrified, but Gu Yan was quick-witted and quickly jumped into the water, grabbed the fish, and threw it onto the shore.

The whole action was done in one go, as smooth as flowing water, and everything happened in the blink of an eye.

When she saw the huge grass carp floundering on the shore, Gu Qingzhi came back to her senses as if awakened from a dream. She couldn't help but twitch her lips slightly: "Oh my, this fish actually delivered itself to my door!"

Gu Qingzhi suddenly became playful, so she quickly took off her shoes and socks and went into the pool without hesitation.

When Gu Yan saw her going down into the pool, he hurried over to her and said, "Qingqing, the water is a little cold. Why did you come down?"

It is autumn now and the water in the lake is slightly cool.

As soon as Gu Qingzhi entered the water, she felt a chill, but she still said stubbornly, "Brother, I'll be in a minute."

Gu Yan was helpless, but fortunately, the pond could still get some sunlight at noon, so the water temperature was not particularly low, and it should be fine to soak in it for a while.

However, as he looked at the school of fish gradually gathering around Gu Qingzhi's feet, he couldn't help but twitch his eyes: "Qingqing, your ability to attract small animals is getting better and better!

Along the way, small animals kept jumping on you, even the fish in the water were no exception..."

Although he was thinking about Gu Qingzhi in his heart, his hands did not slow down at all.

All the big and small fish that were attracted by Gu Qingzhi were caught by him and thrown into the shore.

After a while, Gu Yan thought that Gu Qingzhi had had enough fun in the water. If she ran down, she might get cold air in her body, so he said to Gu Qingzhi, "Qingqing, get up quickly. Don't soak in the water for too long. The water is cold."

After hearing this, Gu Qingzhi realized that her brother did it for her, so she quickly climbed ashore obediently.

It is true that I am in a very comfortable state now. I have gotten rid of the coldness, played in the water, and caught a lot of fish!

Gu Yan used the water plants on the shore to weave a simple fishing net, picked out a few fish to be grilled at noon and killed them, and put the rest into the fishing net, which he put in the pond to soak, ready to take away when he left.

In the next few days, Gu Yan accompanied Gu Qingzhi to the mountains to collect herbs.

Thank goodness our efforts paid off. Finally on the fifth day, they found the other two medicinal herbs, but unfortunately the quantity was not large enough.

Gu Qingzhi calculated carefully and concluded that these herbs could only make enough to make ten pills.

During this period, Gu Yan also inspected the basket weaving samples sent by the families he had selected before.

After the acceptance was qualified, he assigned some work to these people and asked them to weave.

It can be seen from the woven baskets that were sent that they were not made by the same person.

However, Gu Yan did not pay too much attention to these details. He only required that the products be up to standard. Of course, among these people, some of the finished products were indeed very outstanding.

So, Gu Yan picked them out separately, including three people from the Gu family and one member of the Ji family.

Gu Yan specially trained these people, taught them more basket weaving styles, and encouraged them, saying: "If you have new styles, you can always share them with me.

Of course, you can also directly weave some samples and send them to us for us to see. If they are beautifully woven and of good quality, we can accept them as well.”

He later said the same thing to some other people.

Later, more beautiful woven baskets really appeared.

While the brother and sister went up the mountain to collect herbs, Gu Cheng and Gu Lin were concentrating on building Gu Qingzhi's pharmacy.

On this day, the pharmacy was finally completed.

Gu Qingzhi looked around and was very satisfied with the pharmacy.

However, the medicinal herbs just picked cannot be used directly. They need to be processed and it will take about three or four days before they can be used.

Gu Qingzhi finally relaxed, and Gu Yan also received some woven baskets.

In addition, Wang and others made a batch of silk flowers in the past few days, so Gu Qingzhi decided to go to the county town.

Gu Yan was also a little concerned about the situation in the county town, so the next day the two of them drove a donkey cart to the county town.

Of course, in addition to the silk flowers and woven baskets, this time there were also two wild boars that the two of them captured in the mountains yesterday.

They planned to send one to Zhao Mansion and the other to Manjiang Tower.

Prior to this, Shopkeeper Zhu had already informed Gu Yan that their restaurant also purchased game.

If the Zhao Mansion refuses to accept it, it will be sent to Manjiang Tower.

It will be sent to the restaurant when the time comes, and it is just right now.

Just yesterday, they captured two wild boars and were sending one over as they went.

Speaking of yesterday's wild boar, it was actually just luck.

At that time, Gu Qingzhi had just discovered a Ganoderma lucidum and was digging it diligently, but she never expected that a wild boar suddenly jumped out from nowhere and rushed straight towards her.
