Soon, Zhou Ziwen found Zhu Youde and allocated the land on Huangtupo to Shen Zhaodi, Zhou Chaoyang and others.
Of course, it was nominally theirs, but it was actually used by Zhou Ziwen.
He had saved Zhu Youde's life, so this was certainly not a big deal.
In a short while, the procedures were completed.
"Uncle Zhu, how have you been feeling these past few days? Have you had any relapses?"
Zhou Ziwen asked.
"No, I listened to you and ate light food. I haven't had a relapse since then."
Zhu Youde smiled.
"That's good. If you feel something is wrong in the future, you can come to me in advance and I will help you take a look."
Zhou Ziwen spoke with a smile.
Zhu Youde is one of the four giants in the village.
As the accountant of the production team, he had a lot of power.
It's always a good idea to build a good relationship with him.
"Well, I'll pay attention. Are you free today? Come to my house for a couple of drinks tonight."
Zhu Youde invited.
"Some other day, some other day!"
Zhou Ziwen smiled and shook his head.
He dislikes this kind of socializing the most.
If I have this time, I might as well stay at home and spend time with my two sisters.
"Okay then. I haven't prepared anything for today. In two days, I'll ask Jianguo to go get some meat and we'll have a couple of drinks."
Zhu Youde pushed his reading glasses and said seriously.
"Okay, I'll be waiting then."
It would be unreasonable to refuse someone who has invited you repeatedly.
After agreeing and chatting with Zhu Youde for a few more minutes, Zhou Ziwen strolled back home.
After packing up the things needed to go up the mountain, Zhou Ziwen set off with Tayun.
Tayun is the main force for hunting.
Only with it can you find prey.
Otherwise, whether you can get anything by just using a bow and arrow depends on luck.
This is also the reason why those who specialize in hunting will keep a hunting dog.
Zhou Ziwen arrived at the mountain familiarly and did not stop.
Ta Yun was running wildly in front, and Zhou Ziwen was chasing behind.
The dense woods posed no hindrance.
Tayun moves like a cheetah, moving among the trees and grass.
Zhou Ziwen ran and jumped like a monkey, and his speed was no slower than that of Ta Yun.
One man and one dog, they crossed mountains and rivers and soon entered the depths of the forest.
Zhou Ziwen had two purposes for going up the mountain today.
One is hunting. There is not much meat at home, so we have to rely on hunting these days.
If it hadn't brought back a rabbit or pheasant from time to time, there would have been no meat at home.
He planned to wander around in the mountains to see if he could bring back a big fish.
Then there are wild vegetables.
There weren't many dishes left at home, so he planned to bring some back to change the taste for his family.
He is a bit tired of eating cabbage every day.
In this season, some wild vegetables still taste very good.
For example, willow buds are known as spring wild vegetables in the north.
Willow buds mixed with tofu is a delicious dish.
And mugwort.
Although mugwort is a traditional Chinese medicine, it is also a wild vegetable.
In spring, the leaves of mugwort are tender, juicy and fragrant, making it a delicious delicacy.
Mugwort can be used to make brown sugar mugwort rice cake, which tastes very good.
There are also shepherd's purse, amaranth, purslane, elm money, and even dandelion, all of which taste very good.
In March, there are many wild vegetables in the mountains.
As we move forward, the road ahead becomes more and more difficult.
Especially after Sidao Mountain, there are basically no people living there.
There are weeds everywhere, and there are also many kinds of thorns and vines.
Even though Zhou Ziwen is agile, he sometimes can't get through.
From time to time, he would take out the axe from his waist, cut through the weeds and thorns, and open a passable path.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen had made preparations before going up the mountain and specially wore a set of green work clothes.
The work clothes were issued by Zhou's father's factory. He was reluctant to wear them, so he asked Zhou Ziwen to take them to the countryside.
When they arrived at Wudao Mountain, Zhou Ziwen stopped Tayun and asked it to slow down.
Here, he adjusted the bow and arrows on his back, and straightened the quiver to ensure that it was within easy reach, and then he started on his way again.
This side of Wudao Mountain is in a completely virgin forest state, so Zhou Ziwen is also very careful.
It’s not that I’m careful of the wild beasts, but I’m afraid of being bitten by the poisonous insects inside.
Although given his physical condition, ordinary poisonous insects have no effect on him.
But being bitten is also troublesome.
So it is necessary to be careful.
After searching around for a while, he soon found something.
That is a relatively valuable herb.
It was a Panax notoginseng, also known as Tianqi, a plant of the Araliaceae family. Its root is used as medicine, which has the effects of stopping bleeding, removing blood stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and treating bruises.
Moreover, the growth cycle of the medicinal material Panax notoginseng is relatively long, and it usually takes 3-5 years to mature.
Especially this wild Panax notoginseng, which is much more valuable than ordinary herbs.
There is also Dendrobium, also known as "Xianhu".
This medicinal herb likes to grow on rocks in deep mountains and forests.
Zhou Ziwen was lucky to find one.
Next, Zhou Ziwen gained some more gains.
We also found a few relatively old plants such as ginseng and Polygonum multiflorum.
In addition to herbs, of course there are wild grasses. After all, this is the purpose of his going up the mountain.
There were many wild vegetables in the deep mountains, and Zhou Ziwen specially selected the fresh and tender ones, but even so, it didn't take long for his backpack to be full.
So, in the countryside, especially in places like this with mountains and water, there is really no shortage of food.
Of course, not having the need is one thing, but having the ability to get it is another.
As for where Zhou Ziwen is now, only professional hunters would dare to come.
In addition to wild vegetables and herbs, Zhou Ziwen also harvested several prey.
Of course, the prey was all thanks to Tayun.
The guy sniffed around here and there, and soon caught a hare, and then caught another one after a while.
On the way, they also found a hedgehog. Because this thing was covered with thorns, Ta Yun did not dare to catch it. Instead, he guarded the hedgehog to prevent it from leaving and called Zhou Ziwen over.
As a result, when Zhou Ziwen arrived, he shot an arrow at it, and the battle ended instantly.
This hedgehog is not light. I don’t know how it grew. It weighs seven or eight kilograms, which is quite rare among hedgehogs.
"With this thing, I have enough food for several days."
Zhou Ziwen pulled the arrow out of the hedgehog, and the smile on his face never stopped.
He found that he seemed to like the feeling of hunting.
Every discovery of herbs or game brings him surprise.
The feeling of not knowing what to discover but being particularly excited about it makes people a little addicted.
Zhou Ziwen felt that those experienced anglers probably felt similar to him when fishing.
Unknown surprises and the joy of harvest are always so addictive.
"Not bad, not bad, it's time to call it a day and go home."
Seeing that the backpack was full and he had caught a few prey, Zhou Ziwen was in a good mood.
He was going to finish work and go home, and come back in the afternoon.
"Woo! Roar!"
At this moment, Ta Yun, who had been surrounding him, suddenly had his hair standing on end and his eyes became alert.
"Did they discover the big guy?"
Seeing Tayun's appearance, Zhou Ziwen was not surprised but happy. (End of this chapter)
