Zhao Wei shaved his grandfather and father's heads skillfully. Without bothering to clean up the loose hair on the ground, he began to demonstrate in the yard.
He brought a few wooden boards to make a simple workbench, took out a small notebook, and densely wrote down the key points of beekeeping and oyster mushroom cultivation on it.
I have to take this thing to night school and popularize it to everyone.
"Second Laizi, go and fetch those broken wooden boards from the old tree roots at the west end of the village!"
Zhao Wei shouted without even looking up, "Also, ask your mother to clear out the big jars of pickled vegetables left over from last year!"
Er Laizi scratched his head and responded. Just as he was about to run, Zhao Wei called him back: "Wait! Find some more hemp ropes, thicker ones!"
Seeing his apprentice's bewildered face, he patiently explained: "When building a beehive, you need to use hemp rope to tie it up. It is breathable and strong."
It is also better to have a wooden rack for growing oyster mushrooms, so that the space utilization rate will be higher.
While preparations were going on here, Liu Xiaoyu asked timidly: "Zhao Wei, the sting of bees is very painful, aren't you afraid?"
She was very naughty when she was little. When she went to pick flowers, she sat on several bees and killed them.
Some people also say it is a wasp, mainly because it is quite big.
This tool is said to be very aggressive.
She was stung several times and still remembers the pain vividly.
Because I was young, I scratched it and left a scar on it. I don’t know if it has disappeared after ten years.
This has almost become a shadow in her life, and she will be instinctively afraid when she sees a bee.
"It's just a little bee. What's there to be afraid of? This time I have to find a way to catch the queen bee. You just wait for my good news."
As long as there are enough queen bees, many new queen bees can be produced continuously.
Then one box, two boxes... countless boxes were kept up.
When the time is right, he will send three to five boxes to each family and let them harvest the honey themselves. Although this method takes a long time to take effect, it is a long-term business and will not affect farming and earning work points. How great!
"I've thought about this a long time ago." Zhao Wei unfolded the beehive blueprint. "Let's put the beehive on the cliff behind the mountain, which is far away from the village. Besides, the bees are very busy collecting honey. As long as you don't provoke them, they will not attack you."
He pointed to the well-arranged layout of the beehives on the blueprint and said, "Each row is 20 feet apart to ensure that the bees have enough space to move around."
"As for the problem of bee stings, it can be solved. We have mosquito nets, and we can customize them with straw hats to solve the problem."
This job naturally fell to Yunxiu.
Her embroidery skills are average, but that doesn't mean her needlework is bad. It can only be said that everyone has their own expertise.
For example, the sweaters she knits are very rare. The navy blue wool vest that Zhao Wei is wearing at this moment was made by her.
To make this cloak, you need to cut it and then sew a rope at the bottom to tighten it.
This mosquito net is a worn-out one that my grandmother and her family discarded. There are many patches on it, and some new holes have appeared in some places. It has long lost its ability to keep out mosquitoes.
With Zhao Wei's current ability, he can replace them with new ones at any time, so it might as well make use of these broken ones.
The mosquito net is quite big.
Yunxiu was responsible for sewing, Wang Caigu was responsible for cutting, and Liu Xiaoyu was responsible for directing the work, and six cloaks were made quickly.
Zhao Wei looked at the sky and found that it was still in time to go up the mountain, so he led his five apprentices, picked up their hunting rifles and left.
As for Yunxiu, she could have gone up the mountain with them, but she wasn't feeling well and kept feeling pain in her lower abdomen. She hadn't had her period yet, so she felt a little irritated and decided not to join in the fun.
She has been taking medicine every day these days. It is the medicine prescribed by Lin Qinghe for her. He said that if she takes it for half a year, her body will be in good shape like a normal woman.
These medicines must be really magical. She felt that the day was passing faster and faster.
So she stayed at home and helped Zhao Yong.
The pictures drawn in Zhao Wei's notebook are quite easy to understand. He wants to make some wooden boxes and wooden shelves.
This is much easier than making furniture. Even someone like Zhao Yong can do it easily.
Liu Xiaoyu had never seen carpentry work before, and having nothing to do, she just sat there with her God of War as a spectator. From time to time, she would make judgments based on her own knowledge and give instructions on how the family should do things.
Everyone is used to her outspokenness. If they hear something useful, they will try it out. If it is unreasonable, they will just ignore it and not argue with her.
…
When the small courtyard was bustling with activity, Lin Zhiqing came over with a bald head.
He used to be quite handsome, but after shaving his head, he looked like a completely different person. Liu Xiaoyu almost didn't recognize him and just muttered quietly, "How ugly!"
Lin Zhiqing's face trembled when he heard this. He didn't need to look in the mirror to know what he looked like. He coughed embarrassedly.
"Uncle Zhao, I haven't seen you in the village. I didn't expect you to shave so quickly!"
Zhao Yong said proudly: "It's to save money. Even though a few cents is not much, we should save as much as possible."
"Look, my son shaved my head. How is it?"
"Very good, very good. If I had known that President Zhao had this ability, I would have come to join in the fun... Alas... It's my fault that when I went to watch the fun, I was squeezed by the people in the village and rushed to the front."
Now he felt a little regretful. Five cents was still money. He was getting the least work points every day. It was said that he would get even less food in the future. He really doubted whether he could fill his stomach.
…
Among the mountains and forests.
The mountains at this time can only be described as filled with birdsong and the fragrance of flowers, which is completely different from the bleakness of winter.
Zhao Wei led his men all the way to where there were many flowers.
The first is to find wild nests, the second is to catch the queen bee, the third is to look for rotten wood and various new edible mushrooms, and the fourth is, if you can encounter wild beasts, you have to hunt them, you can't go against the meat.
But what surprised Zhao Wei was that he was lucky enough to find a wild ginseng.
This thing is a treasure of the mountains and forests, the most valuable thing.
In the winter, he found a hundred-year-old ginseng.
That has already made him a lot of money.
The one I encountered now is even better, it turned out to be a thousand-year-old ginseng.
However, the location where the ginseng grows is a bit precarious, and if you are not careful, you may not be able to pick the ginseng, but may fall off the cliff.
Zhao Wei knows how to climb, and the rope is made of palm tree wood. It is very strong and durable, and it is more than enough to hang him up with one rope.
This behavior was too crazy. It scared Erlaizi and the others so much that they held him back and refused to do anything.
