Chapter 218: Get rich by raising leeches and blood mushrooms!
Food and fruits will become increasingly precious after the end of the world. Jingshu will not sell them unless it is absolutely necessary, unless it is a favor.
However, she does not have enough resources of her own, so she can only rely on growing some alternative treasures to accumulate capital. The advantage of doing so is that it will not attract hatred and it is easy to gain connections with upper-class people.
Therefore, blood mushrooms are one of the most promising items in Jingshu's plan.
More than ten days have passed since the blood mushrooms were harvested. Apart from the two that Jingshu ate, there were still four left. Jingshu had been planting the roots of the other two in the fields in the Rubik's Cube space.
After so many days, the eggplants and papayas have matured thanks to the nourishment of the spiritual spring, but the blood mushrooms have not grown even a millimeter.
So when Jingshu picked the largest blood mushroom out of the space today, she suddenly thought, why didn't she simulate the living environment of the blood mushroom?
Perhaps given the current conditions in the apocalypse, others cannot simulate it, but Jingshu has the Rubik's Cube space, and planting is her only ability that can make a living and show it to the outside world.
Each Rubik's Cube space can independently simulate the most suitable living environment for organisms. So even if the blood mushroom cannot be artificially cultivated, it is definitely the most likely to be cultivated.
Blood mushrooms generally only live in places with leeches and red nematodes.
According to the food chain, the relationship between leeches and blood mushrooms is like that between poisonous snakes and the detoxifying grass beside their nests. The two are contradictory but also require each other.
It doesn’t matter if Jingshu doesn’t understand the details. As long as she catches a batch of leeches and red nematodes and raises them in the space, and then adds blood mushrooms, she will know whether this method is effective.
If possible, she could even add some diluted spiritual spring water to increase their nutrition. Blood mushrooms also have color. The bigger and brighter the blood mushrooms are, the more valuable they are.
"That's right!" Jingshu seemed to remember that leeches have great medicinal value, and living leeches can be placed on humans to help suck out sores, blood stasis, and keep blood vessels unblocked.
The dried leeches can be used to treat various ailments, such as promoting blood circulation and dispersing blood stasis, and regulating menstruation. Adding honey and injecting them can treat corneal plaques and cataracts. It's truly a treasure trove, both dead and alive. The other day, the doctor was even clamoring for leeches to be used as medicine!
Jingshu rubbed her hands. The most important thing was that the leeches she raised could be used as medicine, which was also one of the medicines she listed in the Medicinal Materials Association. This invisibly helped her complete another business.
In this way, raising leeches is like killing three birds with one stone. It saves time and effort. You have leeches and blood mushrooms. Of course, this is all Jingshu's idealization. Whether it can succeed is still a question.
Jingshu began to record her recent plans quickly, so she was in a daze all the way. She was so absorbed in her plans that she didn't even know how she got to the old man's house. Jingshu was now eager to try, and hurried to the city center to wait and see who disappeared again, so that she could quickly go find a group of leeches. Oh, it was to save people, save people!
Facts have proved that Jingshu still doesn't have Su Mali's luck. She has been to the city many times and has never encountered anyone disappearing. It seems that she has to change her approach and can't be so passive.
Old man Yang Yang lives in the old district of Xishan. He lives in an old house that seems to be made entirely of stone. Jingshu thinks that the house has a history of at least a hundred years. There is a pair of stone lions at the door, one male on the left and one female on the right. The male lion is playing with a hydrangea, and the female lion is caressing her cubs. It is full of cultural heritage.
On a dark and rainy night, a large shed was added to the house, which also provided a lot of parking spaces. The gate looked very retro, with two red lanterns underneath. There were many people coming and going at this time, and it was very lively.
Sumali held an auction that day. Everyone who came drove luxury cars, with drivers to pick them up, and looked extremely wealthy. But at this time, most of the cars parked outside were black Audis and Volkswagens, which looked ordinary. A few of the Volkswagens had letters underneath, which looked extremely low-key. However, there were also a few luxury cars that were extremely high-profile.
As soon as Jingshu arrived at the destination in the shark submarine, she was taken in by Wang Dazhao at the door.
After entering the house, Jingshu truly felt a sense of cultural heritage and class. To put it simply, it felt like entering a landlord's house from a hundred years ago. Every room was an antique, looking shabby but very valuable. Even the structure of the house was built according to the three-courtyard house of the late Qing Dynasty.
But many places are repaired
It has been renovated, with the central air conditioner perfectly hidden in the beams, and even the electric lights are converted from candlesticks. The all-in-one mahogany furniture is antique and although it has cracks, it still does not affect its beauty.
The floor is paved with green bricks, which are very old. Some of the renovations are obvious, all of which prove its long history.
There are rockery and ponds in the yard, and there are more than a dozen carp and crucian carp in the pond.
The pavilion looked like it was newly built, except that the flowerbed that used to be used for growing flowers had now been converted into a vegetable patch, with simulated lights added, leaving only rows of freshly picked leek and lettuce roots.
This house is older than most of the courtyard houses in the imperial capital, but it incorporates modern technological elements and combines them perfectly. Jingshu feels that Mr. Yang Yang is a person who is very particular about the quality of life, just like her.
If conditions permit, we will never compromise, otherwise the entire house and the open yard will not be covered with sheds, and there will not be many details and humanized settings.
"This must be a very powerful person." Jingshu thought so. There are really few people who can hold birthday parties in the apocalypse.
Jingshu was brought by Wang Dazhao to the main courtyard where the birthday ceremony was held today. The courtyard was very large, with a stage in the center, and people were invited to perform a drama on it!
The dining style continued the traditional Chinese style, with ten people at each table. There were more than twenty round tables in the yard, covered with red wedding cloth. It could be said to be very exquisite, and even Jingshu might not have been able to reach this level before the end of the world.
This scene was even grander than Jingshu had imagined. At least she had never participated in it in her previous life. It was a scene that only appeared in TV dramas.
Jingshu was arranged to sit at the upper right table. The people around her were almost full and the scene was very noisy. Yang Yang was sipping wine, squinting his eyes, looking very melancholy and thinking about something. It seemed that he gave up his seat because Jingshu came.
"Your grandfather is very grand."
"Poor Dafang is too obsessed with face. You'll know in a moment. He'll definitely be on the washboard tonight."
"Come, sit here so you can see clearly. Everyone at this table is from the same family. These people went to the United States together. The remaining three seats happen to belong to Lao Niu's family."
As soon as he finished speaking, Niu Moo arrived, carrying large and small items, dragging his wife and son with him.
Niu spotted Jingshu in the crowd and ran over with tears in his eyes, holding Jingshu's hand. "Jingjie, jie! Help me, my mom said she's going to punish me when we get home."
