Chapter 147： before the mountain

   Chapter 147 Before the Mountain

Wang Laishun took the leaders and reporters who were hanging around by the reservoir back home, and he did not forget to tell Chen Ling that he would wait another four or five days, and once everything was ready, he would go into the mountains to hunt.

Hunting was originally organized by seven teams.

The men who went up the mountain were only seven, five, and four, these three teams.

These three teams are much younger.

Later, because the wild boar that broke into the village sold a lot of money, the villagers made inquiries and found that the prices of other wild animals and medicinal materials were also much higher than in previous years, so they all shouted to go.

Go as soon as you go, anyway, this kind of hunting doesn’t come at the same time, each team has their own preparations and plans, there are mountains on three sides, and no one stops you wherever you want to go.

Taking advantage of the fact that the county leaders came to the village this time, I also asked for more shotguns and bullets.

During the    interview, the leaders followed the reporter to several households.

Wang Laishun specially let them see the wolves that were killed.

After the wolves are divided, not everyone is skinned.

After reading    and having a good understanding of the wolves entering the village, the county leaders realized that this year's wolf disaster was so serious.

happily agreed to send more shotguns and bullets to the village.

The last time I gave about 2,000 rounds of bullets, it was only used to defend against wolves for a short time, and I couldn’t let go.

In addition to these problems.

County leaders also talked about encouraging greenhouse cultivation in the past two years.

The cost of vegetable greenhouses is high, so it is impossible to cultivate mushrooms.

The mushrooms planted by farmers are mainly oyster mushrooms, which can be grown all year round, occupying an area of ​​half an mu, or one or two mu.

However, such technology only became popular in the 1970s and 1980s.

As of 1994 last year, the total output of oyster mushrooms in the country just reached over 200,000 tons.

At this time, encouraging planting can actually make money.

There are too few farmers planting crops on a large scale, let alone in a poor and remote place.

Mainly, everyone goes to the mountains to pick mushrooms on weekdays. There are all kinds of mushrooms, and you can pick a lot of them casually.

People don’t think these things are very valuable, and no one is willing to take out the land where food is grown to grow such things.

Yangtougou was the only family in the entire Changle Township that had a planted plant last year.

Last winter and this spring, we sold a lot of money. This year, the greenhouse was washed away by the flood, and a bigger one was built.

Having said this, there are examples in front of us, and many people in the village are really moved.

After lunch, Chen Ling and Liang Yuemin were playing cards. Wang Lixian and a few brothers came to ask them for advice.

Ask if it is okay to grow mushrooms in greenhouses.

The key is to look at this input issue.

Even if you lose money, don’t lose too much.

I really know a lot about this Chen Ling.

Just tell them to build a small greenhouse outside their yard, cover it with plastic film, keep warm during the day, and cover it with a thick grass mat at night, that is, when cultivating mycelium and building the shed, you need to spend some effort and money. Actually not much.

After calculating the cost of plastic film and some simple materials, the greenhouses are divided into two and three parts, find a few people who know each other for help, chop a few bamboos to support the greenhouse, build adobe walls, and take no hassle. The sky can cover it.

Wang Lixian summed it up. He sold a lot of watermelons this year, and he still has a lot of surplus after making up for the holes he owes. It happens that there is a private plot in the east of the yard, and he will not grow vegetables in winter. He can try growing mushrooms, mainly because he is now I really believed what Chen Ling said.

The brothers Wang Lishan and Wang Lihui thought about it carefully and thought it was better.

The people who raise pigs raise pigs, and those who sell clothes are already busy. I don’t know what to do after this stuff is planted, so let’s not get involved.

There are some things that you can do alone to make money, but if you go there in a rush, it will not work.

They read this principle, and said in their hearts, let's be familiar with them, and be safe.

…

The mountains are good and the water is good, and the autumn scenery is pleasant.

In the afternoon, we interviewed several other people, and the reporters were not in a hurry to leave.

In the village, I was taking pictures and framing scenes everywhere, under the banner of rich interview materials. In fact, it was fun to eat and drink, and I wanted to stay for one more day.

In the evening, he was still eating at Wang Laishun's house, so he called Chen Ling over this time.

There are many young reporters who come from the city, mainly women. Wang Laishun's original intention was to let him drink with him in the past.

Chen Ling went, but did not want to stay longer.

I only cooked two dishes, sat with me for a while and then went home.

As a result, when the reporters were leaving the next day, they came to the door and asked Chen Ling how to make wolf meat, saying that the braised wolf meat he made last night was very delicious.

After Chen Ling told them how to do it, each of them happily spent money to buy a few catties of wolf meat.

After sending these people away, Wang Susu asked, is wolf meat really that delicious?

After the wolf meat was distributed in the village, Chen Ling had nothing to do, and did it a few times in his own house.

She felt that the taste was better than the one in their stockade, but it was just that, far worse than the badger meat.

Chen Ling shook his head and said, "I don't eat well, maybe they have a weird taste."

said so, in fact, he knew very well in his heart.

The taste of him and Wang Susu has been raised for half a year.

The seasoning of those wolf meat is hard.

The marinating time is long enough, no matter whether it is stir-fried or braised, most people think it is a rare delicacy after eating it.

But I am afraid of comparison.

Just like Liang Yuemin and his son, they ate it at noon yesterday, and they all said that other dishes were not as good as Chen Ling's.

Cooking is nothing but: remove the flavor and increase the flavor.

Remove the bad taste of the ingredients and stimulate the good taste.

Wolf meat is hard to handle.

Tell them how to do it, and they can’t make too delicious dishes. They just put seasonings in their mouths and end up with a mouthful of seasonings. It’s better to eat dog meat.

But this kind of thing is mostly just a novelty.

There is also a saying, wolves will not dare to come after eating wolf meat, and livestock will not be harmed by wolves. This is a superstition.

"Since it's not delicious, then you told Zhenzhen yesterday that you should catch a wolf cub and come back to eat, the wolf cub is tender."

Wang Susu sat on the threshold of the main room pounding the medicine and said with a chuckle.

"Yeah, I'll catch some when I get the chance. The little wolf cubs eat less miscellaneous things, and the meat doesn't have so many strange flavors, so it tastes good."

Chen Ling answered as a matter of course.

After talking, he found a few herbs and put them in different categories.

We are going to enter the mountain, the time will not be too short.

Wang Susu is preparing some simple and effective hemostatic medicines and gold wound medicines for him to prevent accidental injuries.

Also bring snake repellent powder, snake medicine, etc.

Wang Susu explained it in detail, and then asked Chen Ling to go to Chen Guoping to get some cold medicine and medicine for diarrhea.

Even if many people grow up in the mountains, it is inevitable that they will not adapt to it. If they spend the night in the mountains, they will easily have diarrhea or catch a cold. These are the kind of small problems that can make people feel weak.

It is not a bad thing to have all the medicines ready.

Although Chen Ling does not need it.

is mainly for the heart of the daughter-in-law.

But I went to Chen Guoping's house, and I didn't get much medicine.

But I paid for some wolf meat and two pieces of internal organs.

Wolf meat, as well as wolf heart, wolf gallbladder and other parts can also be used as medicine.

Sister-in-law Xiufen said that she wanted to come to the house for a long time to ask for it, so Chen Ling came to the door herself.

went home and picked up some.

When he left, he also told Wang Susu how to make medicine.

also said that the quality of wolf meat is secondary, mainly to replenish the body. Since Chen Ling knows how to cook, he can eat more if he has nothing to do. It is good for him.

This is a good thing, let him not feed the dog all the time.

Chen Ling responded and sent her out, but saw his daughter-in-law snickering.

After    questioning, I learned that wolf meat is used as medicine, mostly for aphrodisiac.

Chen Ling's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he scolded the old lady for being right and wrong.

A real man who can walk on his arms.

Still using this? look down on who.

Wang Susu laughed until she couldn't stand upright, saying that Mrs. Sufen was kind and couldn't blame her.

I didn't know what to think, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

looked at Chen Ling and smiled sweetly.

Chen Ling felt strange and asked her what was wrong, but she just shook her head and said it was okay.

I will discuss with him to send Wang Zhenzhen to school tomorrow, and by the way, I will go shopping in the county town. I will buy whatever I need to buy. I will prepare him well for the things that go into the mountains in these two days.

This time he entered the mountain, Chen Ling didn't care about the number of prey, nor was it purely for entertainment.

He has a Taobao mentality.

Some of the extinct, rare, or useless in the eyes of ordinary people are likely to be treasures in their own hands and can play a greater value.

Now Wang Susu wanted to give him some things, and he also complied, but he only picked the necessities to prepare, and he didn't need to buy more.

After delivering Wang Zhenzhen the next day, he bought some good things, but was stopped by Liang Hongyu and his two elders, and had a long lunch at home, which was lively for a long time.

Liu Yinhuan and two children are dealing with work and school in the city, and the family is not going to stay in the capital in the future.

Liang Yuemin has nothing to do, he accompanies his parents to play around these days.

Hearing that Chen Ling said that the village was going to go hunting in the mountains, the father and son were very moved.

But the two have self-knowledge.

Knowing that he couldn't bear the pain, he was only a hindrance when he went.

So I didn't mention it.

… an autumn rain and a cold.

On the first day of the leap August, it rained all day, and it stopped at night.

Autumn feels thicker unconsciously.

At this time, the cicada on the tree no longer chirped endlessly.

Like grasshoppers in the autumn, they are about to finish the last period of their life, they become old and weak, their movements are slow, their claws can't hold the branches, and their once black and shiny eyes are gradually graying.

When the autumn wind blows, the fire of their remaining life is extinguished, and they fall into the grass, unable to fly again.

However, the poultry in the village had a good time. These days, they circled around the bushes every day. When they found something falling from the tree, they immediately jumped up and pecked, and they didn't need to feed at all.

These days, the story of Chen Wangzhuang being beaten by a wolf has spread quite far, and people from Shiliba Village often come here.

Going to the county seat, going to the village to meet people in Chenwangzhuang, there are often people who stop them and ask questions.

There are also old men pedaling a car, wandering back and forth in the village, shouting to collect wolf skins.

But the price was too low, no one paid him any attention.

Except for Chen Ling, most of the people in the village beat the wolf mainly by selling them for money.

Dead poultry and sheep, as well as wolf meat, were basically sold in the county fairs and markets.

The wolf skin is kept and cleaned up. It will be more expensive to sell when the weather is cold.

This old man wanted to collect wolf skins, but he still gave them the price of a few years ago. Who would be foolish to sell them?

Chen Ling has been busy for a long time in the world, he has plucked two baskets of grass and picked some vegetables to go home. When the little boys were out of school, they let them take the wild boars away, and the five they kept were captured by two dogs.

Although he can eat troughs now, he is still too young to be raised first, and he doesn’t eat much.

But when the meat grows up, it will be slaughtered and eaten if it is not pleasing to the eye.

Wild boars grow up, just like domestic pigs, they eat a lot, and the pig manure is so smelly that it is difficult to clean up. After cleaning, whether they are piled outside the yard or pulled into the ground, the smell is too strong. It must be two kilograms, just kill it and eat meat.

Playing with the wind chimes given by Liang Hongyu's granddaughter, Xiaolizi, Chen Ling thought that the little girl would come later next time, and the little wild boar might really be in her stomach.

…A cool autumn morning.

Chen Ling took the ladder to the house and poked the blocked chimney, but a large scorched mouse came out, which made his eyes go straight for a while.

I don't know how this guy got in.

He and Wang Susu steamed steamed buns early in the morning, stuffed the hearth with firewood, the fire didn't start for a long time, and they choked on the smoke.

It turns out that this thing is doing the trick.

It is said that the yellow-skinned son of his own comes every night, and the harrier often wanders around, so there should be no mice.

also got into the chimney.

Wang Susu is also strange, saying maybe it came from somewhere else.

The two were busy for a long time, steaming the steamed buns.

The rest of the dough is not wasted, knead it into dough, pick up the rolling pin and roll out a few dough cakes.

asked Wang Susu to set up the pan. He went to the chicken coop to find some fresh eggs, chose a few shallots, washed his hands, and squatted by the stove to bake the egg pancakes.

The dough pancake has layers. Chen Ling used the method of filling the cake to poke a hole in the cake and pour the egg into it.

Flip it over with a spatula, and it will be a sheet in less than two minutes.

When the pan is completely hot, Chen Ling's speed is even faster. In less than ten minutes, all the remaining dough cakes are baked, and there are more than ten egg cakes in the sifter.

Early in the morning, the young couple were all empty stomachs.

It takes at least 40 minutes for the steamed buns to come out of the pot, so how can you wait to eat the steamed buns?

Just pick up a piece of cake, wrap it with pickles, add some chili, and rub some sesame oil.

with fresh shallots, full of fragrance.

Wang Susu ate three.

The rest went into his own stomach, not even his sister-in-law's.

When the steamed buns came out, Wang Susu went to wake up her sister for dinner.

Chen Ling touched his stomach with satisfaction, made a pot of hot tea, moved out of the reclining chair, and basked in the sun in front of the main room.

The sun in the morning in autumn is not at all sinister. It shines on people and is warm. After eating and drinking, basking in the sun, reading and reading newspapers is the most pleasant.

Wang Zhenzhen saw him like this, so he also came over to join in the fun, moved a chair and Maza to do his homework beside him.

After an hour or so, Chen Ling fell asleep in a daze.

Liang Yuemin and his son entered the yard. They didn't drive much recently. They just came over on a bicycle. Qin Rong first carried the water bottle, Liang Yuemin took the slingshot that Chen Ling helped him make, and the father and son played wherever they went.

Came here today and brought two people along.

said he was a new friend in the county seat.

A well-dressed middle-aged couple, Chen Ling saw that they were not ordinary people, and asked, they actually ate the eggs that he gave to Er Lao, and thought it was delicious, so they made a special trip to buy eggs.

took him by surprise.
