After graduation, I went home to keep bees

The food Jiang Yu and the others brought was very simple, except for pancakes, which were pickled vegetables and bacon, but Jiang Xiaoman brought a lot of things.

I don't know how much stuff he can hold in his mountaineering bag, but he took a small bag here and found a small packet of seasoning there, and after a while, there was a pile of things under his feet.

"Xiao Man, what are you doing? What are these?" Jiang Yu approached with interest.

"Oh, this is the hot pepper soup that someone gave me. I thought it would be cold when we went into the mountains, so I brought some. This is very convenient to make. And I also brought my own chili noodles. The Hu spicy soup that comes out is fragrant and spicy. Drinking a bowl in winter will make you sweat! It’s a pity that you can’t find eggs here.” Jiang Xiaoman regretted.

"It's not easy to bring raw eggs, can I have boiled ones here?" Jiang Yu found out about [-] boiled eggs that he had cooked before. He always boils a pot and brings them with him. When the food is not enough, they heat up boiled eggs as a dish.

"Okay~ Give me a few, I'll chop them up and put them in the hot and spicy soup."

As he said that, Jiang Xiaoman poured out the ginger syrup in the soup pot and divided it among several people, then cleaned the pot briefly, estimated the appetite of several people, poured three servings of Hu spicy soup base into it, and added half the pot Put the water on the fire to boil.

It is very troublesome to prepare the hot and spicy soup base, most people can't make it, and neither can Jiang Xiaoman.

However, when he was working in the canteen before, he once saw the boss who sold Hu spicy soup help children with their homework, and he almost had a heart attack. one time.

It's just such a small thing, I didn't expect that when the holiday was coming, the boss actually gave him a big bag full of ingredients for making Hu spicy soup!

After asking, I found out that Hu spicy soup is not selling well in their school. The boss originally wanted to bring the two children to the city to go to school, but because they have no household registration, the tuition fees for the two children cost more than 5 yuan a year. The couple really couldn't afford to support them, and they were reluctant to send their children back to their hometowns, so they wanted to continue working in a city with a lower consumption level.

Before leaving, the boss sold everything that could be sold in the store, and gave away some seasonings that could not be used up after opening the bags. Thinking of Jiang Xiaoman once said that his father had never tasted Hu spicy soup, so he gave it away. The rest of the hot and spicy soup base was given to him.

"My dad likes to drink this. After my old house collapsed, he dug it out on purpose. Fortunately, I wrapped it up and put it in a plastic bucket, and it didn't get crushed." Jiang Xiaoman said. Put the chopped boiled eggs into the pot, stir them with a spoon, then pour in the soaked and chopped wakame and bean curd in turn, after boiling again, add chili powder to taste and eat.

The conditions in the field are poor, if it is at home, Jiang Xiaoman would sprinkle a handful of green onions or coriander in, that would be delicious.Jiang Xiaoman walked all the way to this deep mountain and old forest just now, but he didn't even find a wild onion, so he could only give up with regret.

Even without onion and garlic seasoning, this hot, spicy and appetizing Hu spicy soup still makes everyone happy to squint their eyes, take a sip, and sigh a long time. After drinking a large bowl of Hu spicy soup, it really is As Jiang Xiaoman said, his whole body felt warm.

"Xiaoman! Where can I buy this spicy soup? Can you buy more for me?" Jiang Yu grabbed Jiang Xiaoman's arm excitedly.

"I'll search the Internet later. There should be some for sale online. Otherwise, if I make all the ingredients myself, the cost will be high." Jiang Xiaoman originally planned to buy more after eating these. Jiang Youliang especially likes to drink spicy soup. I don't know if I was from Henan in my previous life, and I would panic if I didn't drink for a few days.

The steaming spicy Hu spicy soup was served with the baked golden-yellow fake Roujiamo. Several people ate until their bellies were round. For the first time, they felt that going to the mountain to cut honey didn’t seem so difficult.

It's a pity that Jiang Xiaoman just came to shoot a video, so he couldn't go into the mountains with them often.Otherwise, based on his cooking skills, they would all be willing to give him an extra share.

After dinner, Shanyan called people together and began to discuss tomorrow's work.

The good news is that this super-large colony of wild beehives has not been harvested before, so they predict that there may be more nests hidden in the crevices of the cliffs.

But the bad news is that it is precisely because there is a high probability that there are more hives hidden inside. If they only smoke out the wild bees in the outer layer of hives, there are still wild bees hidden inside. Once they start cutting honey, the wild bees inside will Riot, that's definitely enough for them to drink a pot.

"The plan has changed. Let's not move tomorrow. We will cut more wet firewood and throw a batch into it to test the depth. If we are lucky, there are old beehives inside, so there should not be many wild bees." Shan Yan Make a decision.

"Then we can make more money! This old beehive is a good thing! Many drug farmers have harvested it." Ahu rubbed his hands excitedly.

I heard from an old Chinese doctor that this kind of wild old beehive is very effective in treating rhinitis and pharyngitis. Every time they go to the mountains to cut honey, they have to cut back the beehive together, because the empty beehive can also be sold for money, and the year The longer, the higher the price.

"Yeah, let's be patient this time and cut off this piece, so we won't have to go to the mountains to suffer for the next six months." Shanyan also showed a slight smile.

Jiang Yu has always felt that the Internet in the mountains is not good, and it takes a long time to watch a video.So, after earning money this time, Shan Yan planned to get a network cable or something. I heard that this is very expensive, but the two of them are big men who usually live in the mountains and don't have much to spend money on. It's enough to make Jiang Yu happy.

Hearing that he wanted to pull a network cable into the mountain from outside, Jiang Xiaoman was stunned, and then said sadly: "Brother Yan, do you know how much it costs to pull a network cable into the mountain? Do you know how far it is from your home to the nearest town?" ? Isn’t a wireless network card that costs tens of dollars a month not good?”

What? !

Several people looked at Jiang Xiaoman who was inexplicably excited.

Jiang Xiaoman was also stunned, and then remembered that few people in the mountains had used the wireless network card for outdoor use, and felt embarrassed immediately.

"Well, I know that there is a wireless network card that can be used outdoors without having to pull a network cable. I bought one now and paid for it for three years. The monthly rent is less than a month. 50 yuan is much more cost-effective than mobile phone traffic, do you want to buy one? I can buy it for you.”

"I also want!"

"Buy me one too!"

When Jiang Xiaoman said that the monthly rent was less than fifty, all the young people present were moved.

Although everyone lives in the mountains, they can see the wonderful world outside through their mobile phones. None of the boys here have ever been married. The reason why they like to follow the rocks into the mountains to cut honey is mainly to earn some money Internet pocket money.

As for marrying a daughter-in-law by cutting honey to save money?They dare not even think about this!

Now marrying a daughter-in-law in the mountains costs hundreds of thousands, at least. Even if the entire wild bee nest in Langshan is exhausted, it will not be able to save that much money.

Instead of this, it would be better to live one day at a time.However, compared to the traffic fee of one or two hundred a month, this wireless network card is too cost-effective!

"That's fine! I'll place an order when I get down the mountain, and I'll send the items to me. I'll bring them to you later and teach you how to use them. It's very simple to use. Many outdoor live broadcasts use this A network card." Jiang Xiaoman wrote down the requests of several people.

Because they had to prepare more wet firewood to explore the road, Shanyan and the others didn't go up the mountain the next day, and each of them went to chop firewood with an axe. Jiang Xiaoman was not idle, he went to the river ditch to fish for shrimps and crabs.

This mountain also has rivers, and there are quite a few. Yesterday he followed others to take a bath and found out that there are many rocks in the shallows. This kind of place is the easiest to catch those kind of small crabs. Grab near the camp.

In addition to flipping crabs, he also took a few people's baskets, sprinkled some crushed pancakes in them, and threw them into the water to see if he could catch small fish and shrimp.

"Today, I'll take everyone to see if you can catch small crabs in this ditch." Jiang Xiaoman turned on the camera, smiled at the camera, and put on the labor protection gloves prepared in advance. This kind of gloves has a layer of rubber on the palm. This will prevent your hands from being caught when catching crabs.

"When you are looking for crabs in an unfamiliar river ditch, remember to prepare a pair of such labor protection gloves, because you don't know if there are snakes or poisonous forest frogs in the unfamiliar river ditch. Wearing gloves can provide a certain degree of protection. Use it, let’s go and see how your luck is today.”

With that said, Jiang Xiaoman fixed the tripod by the river, and began to squat down and turn over rocks by himself.

In fact, it is best to hunt crabs after nightfall, and light a lantern, and crabs like to run to places with light. When Jiang Youliang took Jiang Xiaoman to search for crabs in the ditch when he was a child, he could catch a bucket of crabs in one night!

But you must not come out here at night. You must know that many beasts in the forest are nocturnal animals. If you encounter them, it is not certain who will eat them.

I don't know if he was lucky or unlucky, but when he turned over two stones in a row, all the toads came out, which shocked him a lot!These things are also edible, but Jiang Xiaoman dare not touch them, and can only watch them croaking and jumping away.

Fortunately, he changed his luck soon - he turned over a big rock with a gap at the bottom, and several small crabs ran out of it all at once!

Jiang Xiaoman has quick eyes and quick hands. He is not afraid of being caught while wearing gloves, and he can catch the crab with a single slap.Now that he has experience, he specifically looks for rocks with a little gap at the bottom that crabs can get into to turn over, and almost every turn is accurate!

It may be that this river ditch is usually not caught, and he caught half a bucket in a short while.

Look at the fish trap next to it, good guy!Are the fish and shrimp in this river retarded?

With just a few pancake crumbs, many small fish and shrimps gathered under the bamboo basket to fight for it!

"It's a big harvest today! I can add some river seafood to the spicy soup when I go back." I poured out some small fish and shrimp in the back basket, found a nearby puddle, cleaned the small fish, squeezed out the internal organs, and the shrimp Also wash it, the crabs are not big, and the water quality of this river is clear, the crabs don't look dirty, after thinking about it, Jiang Xiaoman simply poured the crabs into the back basket, put them in the water and shook them vigorously for dozens of times, it was regarded as After washing the crabs, go back and sprinkle with chili powder and cumin to roast them!

When we returned to the camp, there was already a large pile of wet firewood piled up there, and the binding of these wet firewood was also very particular. Trees like this kind of primeval forest should not be cut casually, and the rocks they chopped were all fingers Thick miscellaneous trees, mixed with the brought hay, are bundled into bundles. After the hay is lit, the burning hay slowly ignites the wet wood, which can emit bursts of thick smoke to drive away wild bees.

"Xiao Man, I picked up two sticks of dry firewood over there, and I'll keep them for you to cook." Ah Hu walked over with a smile, dragging two fallen trees as thick as calves.

This kind of tree is usually knocked down by lightning or animals, and it will dry naturally after falling down, which is a good material for starting fire.

Of course, it is also the place where fungi like to parasitize.

Seeing the dried-up wild mushrooms on two logs, Jiang Xiaoman couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart: If we went into the mountains with a basket on our backs in early summer, we would probably be able to pick two sacks in less than half a day, right?

"Brother Xiaoman, are you going to go into the mountains to pick up fungi? I'll call you together next year! Just before the rock honey comes out, we all have to go into the mountains to pick up fungi." Ah Hu smiled and showed a pair of cute little canine teeth.
