While Song Tiantian and the others were drinking the saxaul juice from their cups, Lu Chuanbei also drained the cooked saxaul and put it into a winnowing basket.
"Because the sand dates cannot be dried directly on the ground, we need to use a rack to suspend the winnowing basket in the air to ensure its breathability." Lu Chuanbei said as he built a rack with bricks and hung the winnowing basket on it.
"Okay, the rest of the time will be left to the sun. Of course, it doesn't mean we just ignore it. We need to turn it over every once in a while to ensure it is evenly dried. This way the dried sand dates will be easier to preserve." As he spoke, Lu Chuanbei smelled a sweet fragrance of dates wafting over from not far away.
Lu Chuanbei followed the scent and saw Song Tiantian and the others, each holding a glass of light red water, drinking it remarkably. Seeing this, Lu Chuanbei couldn't help but ask his daughter, "Tianbao, what are you drinking?"
"This is water soaked with Elaeagnus angustifolia paste." Song Tiantian said, and poured another cup of Elaeagnus angustifolia water into the empty cup.
Lu Chuanbei didn't mind that this was the cup his daughter had drunk from, so he just picked it up and took a sip.
The sand date paste is boiled without adding a drop of water. After it is dissolved with water, there is no need to add honey or sugar, and you can drink the sweetness of the sand date itself.
It is also very sweet and not greasy at all, and has a strong date aroma. One bite feels like being surrounded by full of sand dates, which warms the whole person from the inside out.
Lu Chuanbei noticed this and couldn't help but drink up the full cup of saxaul juice in a few gulps: "Huh~ I feel warm all over after drinking this."
"That's because the water brewed with Elaeagnus angustifolia paste has the effect of nourishing the blood and warming the stomach, so it makes people feel warm after drinking it."
Hearing this, Xu Anjia suddenly realized something and said, "I was wondering why I was getting warmer and warmer. Could it be because of the water soaked in this Elaeagnus angustifolia paste?"
"My hands are warm too." He Jingnian said, and put his hands on his face and touched it: "My face is warm too."
Although the children are strong, their faces will still feel cold when they are blown by the night wind for a while at night here. But now it is different. Each of them has an exceptionally rosy complexion, and it is obvious that they are not affected by the night wind at all.
[It seems to be true. Just now, their faces were white and tender, but now they are all rosy.]
Is it really that magical?
[This Elaeagnus angustifolia paste seems to be very simple to make, but can it really have such good effects? ]
[Regardless of whether it really works or not, I've been sold on it. When the Elaeagnus angustifolia I bought arrives, I'll make a cup and try it.]
I saw Tiantian's Elaeagnus angustifolia paste, which is made entirely from Elaeagnus angustifolia, without adding a single drop of water. This fruit drink made with jujubes looks very good for those with menstrual cramps!
[That seems to be true. I'll make some and stock up when my Elaeagnus angustifolia arrives.]
If I had known that I could make an angustifolia paste from angustifolia, I should have ordered more. Otherwise, I'm afraid the more I buy won't be enough to use the dried angustifolia and the paste!
[What the above person said is right, I will go to the program team’s live broadcast room and place more orders! ]
As He Xuebin was still broadcasting live, a large number of viewers suddenly rushed into the live broadcast room and quickly cleared out the inventory that had just been replenished.
Seeing this clearing, He Xuebin couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "It's gone again?"
As he spoke, he looked at Director Liu behind him in surprise: "Director Liu, this is gone again. Does the village chief still have any more saxauls? Do you want to add some more stock?"
Hearing this, Director Liu's expression was very complicated.
You know, they sold out all the annual production of sand dates in Mojin Village in just one afternoon.
Now I want to add more, but it’s out of stock.
The head of Mojin Village, half happy and half distressed, shook his head and said in not very standard Mandarin: "No more, all sold out! All the saxauls in our village are sold out."
Hearing this, He Xuebin could only apologize to those who hadn't bought any saxauls yet: "Everyone has heard that all the saxauls in the village are sold out. If you want to buy some, you'll have to wait until next year."
Upon hearing this, those netizens who didn’t sell anything quit.
In the end, it was only after the village chief promised to transfer some sand dates from the neighboring villages that the dissatisfied audience was appeased.
He Xuebin was the last one to go offline. When he turned off the live stream, Xu Qi's meal was ready. Although they were still eating at a table built with salvaged wooden boards and bricks in the yard, the surrounding environment had improved greatly.
The yellow bricks that were originally piled up all over the yard have been reused and rebuilt on the foundation together with their homemade cement.
In order to move into the new house as soon as possible, Fang Xiuzhu designed the simplest pastoral-style bungalow, and only built three and a half rooms. Although the area of this bungalow is not as large as the previous abandoned house, it has all the necessary designs.
They can also use the bricks from the abandoned houses, so they don’t have to spend money to buy yellow bricks from outside.
Because of this, the construction of the bungalow progressed very quickly. In just two days, the entire small bungalow was built from the ground, and the house was painted with white putty.
Although the interior has not been decorated or furnished yet, the entire appearance of the cottage is already displayed before everyone's eyes.
Not only that, there are still a lot of bricks left.
Fang Xiuzhu made some calculations and decided to use them to design a kitchen outside the bungalow. This way, there would be no need for a kitchen in the house, and there would be no need to worry about cooking fumes floating everywhere in the house.
Of course, part of the reason is that they don’t have money to buy a range hood. In order to save money as much as possible, unnecessary expenses can be saved as much as possible.
Although the house has been built, the smell of a newly built house still needs a few days to dissipate. Although they use all natural and environmentally friendly materials, the smell of putty still needs to dissipate.
To this end, Lu Chuanbei also sprinkled the ashes from their daily cooking in the house to remove the smell. With good ventilation, they could move in in just a day or two.
Before that, Lu Chuanbei and his team still need to prepare a lot of things, beds, furniture, etc. are inevitable.
In order to save the money, Fang Xiuzhu and others used all the available wood and boards here and prepared to make furniture themselves.
So, after lunch, they took the saws, hammers, etc. borrowed from the village and started sawing wooden boards in the yard.
While they were busy working, Song Tiantian cleaned the date pits, put them into the bread oven along with the medicinal herbs and jade fragments, and burned some jade powder.
Song Tiantian used the jade powder she had just burned and mixed it with clean water to water the saxaul tree. She looked at the bark that had grown back on the saxaul tree and couldn't help but pat its trunk with satisfaction.
The branches of the saxaul tree swayed gently in the breeze, and a few ripe saxaul fruits fell, as if to thank Song Tiantian.
The audience in the live broadcast room also discovered that the saxaul tree had grown branches and leaves again without them noticing, and the originally thin and dry saxaul had become plump again.
[Gulp... So this Elaeagnus angustifolia tree is really sweet. Did they replant this one a few days ago?]
"No way, I haven't noticed it for a few days, has it already grown so thick?"
[Oh my god, so the jade powder Tiantian made can really cure the Elaeagnus angustifolia tree?]
[Oh my god, I remember the bark of this Elaeagnus angustifolia tree was broken like this, and it actually... Wait, I think I saw something just now, let me zoom in and see!]
What's wrong? Is there something wrong? Or is this saxaul tree not the one Tiantian and the others planted a few days ago?
[It's possible. How could anything be able to revive a tree with its entire bark broken off in such a short time?]
I found it! I just expanded the trunk of this Elaeagnus angustifolia tree, and guess what I saw? The bark that had been broken off had actually grown back!
【What did you say? 】
【Really?】
[I don't believe it, you must have seen it wrong! ]
If you don't believe me, you can zoom in on the trunk and compare it to a few days ago. The bark growth is still there...
While the audience was playing spot-the-difference game, Song Tiantian was putting the remaining jade powder into a bottle for safekeeping.
Then, she started fiddling with her little medicine pot, brewing pots of little pills that no one could understand.
Sitting opposite her, Fang Nan was helping Tiantian watch the fire in the stove while carving something on a branch with a multi-function knife.
There were also Xu Anjia and He Jingnian who were playing around them. Along with the sounds of sawing and hammering in the yard, the whole yard seemed particularly lively.
At this moment, the bright moonlight was gradually obscured by the dark clouds, and the stars that were originally within reach also hid away unknowingly.
Immediately afterwards, a muffled thunder suddenly sounded in the sky, and a white light instantly lit up the entire yard.
Upon hearing the thunder, Lu Chuanbei, Fang Xiuzhu and others hurriedly shouted to Song Tiantian and others who were still in the yard: "Tiantian, Nian Nian, quickly hide in the shed."
Hearing this, Song Tiantian hurriedly picked up the pot of medicine she had just boiled, and Xiang Nan quickly extinguished the fire in the stove.
Xu Anjia and others were not idle either. They quickly came to the shed and moved all the drying sand dates, pots and pans outside, etc. into the bungalow that had not yet been moved into.
Lu Chuanbei and others also quickly moved all the tools in the yard, unused wooden boards, shelves, etc. into the yard.
And just as they were moving their things in, raindrops as big as beans fell directly from the sky, hitting the tarpaulin on the shed...
