Chapter 466 New Family Member
The weather is nice today, sunny.
We walked all the way to the top of Niutou Mountain, facing the breeze and the sun shining on our faces, which made us feel sunny.
After stopping for a while at the top of the mountain, Zhou Ziwen continued to move forward.
The mountains are rich in resources, like an untapped treasure.
From time to time, Zhou Ziwen would dig up a herb.
Honeysuckle, plantain, Polygonum multiflorum, Xanthium sibiricum, Motherwort...
Zhou Ziwen had enough of these herbs, and he collected some of them and prepared to keep them as inventory in the clinic.
Even if you get work points from the clinic, you should also put in some work to avoid being gossiped about.
The clinic doesn't have much demand for herbal medicine, especially now that everyone is at work, so even fewer people come to see a doctor.
Originally, rural health workers like them were both workers and farmers. They worked in the fields when they were busy, and acted as doctors when there were patients.
It’s just that Zhu Jianguo has a father named Zhu Accountant, and because of Zhu Youde, he became a full-time hygienist.
As for Zhou Ziwen, his main job is to be the leader of the Mushroom Group, and his position in the health center is just a figurehead.
However, as a figurehead, his medical skills are better than those of the regular health workers, and he is the main person in charge of the health center.
The villagers who came to see the doctor all came for him.
"Hey, this ginseng is of good age!"
Suddenly, Zhou Ziwen, who was strolling in the mountains, showed joy on his face.
Not far in front of him, there was a green plant that looked no different from other plants, but Zhou Ziwen recognized it at a glance; it was ginseng.
Because he wanted to grow ginseng, he had a better understanding of the size of the ginseng during this period. Although he had not dug it out yet, he could roughly estimate the age of the ginseng.
The ginseng in front of him is at least eight years old.
Ginseng in this state does not need to be planted anymore, it can be dug out and sold for money.
However, Zhou Ziwen has this in mind. For Chinese medicine like ginseng, the older it is, the better its effect.
If you are not short of money, of course the older the better.
Zhou Ziwen was in a very good mood after digging up a relatively old ginseng. He was in a good mood for the next half day.
Near noon, he summarized his gains for the day.
One eight-year-old ginseng, one seven-year-old ginseng, eight five-year-old ginseng, and several three-year-old ginseng.
A basket full of herbs, most of which were ginseng.
"It's almost time. Let's go back and eat first and come back in the afternoon."
After checking the time, Zhou Ziwen called out to Tayun and took it back.
He searched Erdao Mountain for half a day.
However, Erdao Mountain is too close to Niutou Mountain. Some brave villagers will come here to collect herbs, and most of the herbs he can find here are those that have slipped through the net.
If you really want to dig up herbs of a higher age, you have to go to Sandao Mountain and Sidao Mountain.
On the way home, before he could catch his breath, it was time to get off work.
After a while, Chen Qiaoyi's chattering voice was heard outside.
"Brother Ziwen, we're back!"
Seeing that the courtyard gate was open, the girl started shouting before she even entered.
"What good thing happened? Why are you so happy?" Zhou Ziwen asked with a smile.
"Hehe, Zhao Xiaohua said their dog is just one month old and wants us to go catch it!"
Chen Qiaoyi said with a smile.
"Okay, then let's go catch them after work this afternoon!" Zhou Ziwen nodded and smiled.
Zhou Ziwen was also very happy with the news of the puppies.
This means that there will be a new member in their family soon.
In fact, there are many families in the village who keep dogs. In this era, rural dogs are not valuable. If anyone wants one, they can just say hello and take it away.
Having too many dogs at home can sometimes be a hassle. You can't sell them for much money, you can't afford to raise them yourself, and you can't bear to throw them away.
If someone is willing to catch it and raise it, they might be happy!
"Um."
Chen Qiaoyi nodded obediently.
This girl likes small animals very much, dogs, rabbits, chickens, as long as they are animals, she likes them.
She is the one who feeds most of the poultry at home.
With anticipation for the arrival of a new member in the family, everyone was in a good mood for the rest of the afternoon.
They looked similar to the educated youth who raised pigs in the Youth League Institute.
During the afternoon, Zhou Ziwen first planted the ginseng he had dug in the morning in the ground, and then went to the mountains to continue collecting herbs.
After half a day, he harvested a lot of ginseng.
After planting the ginseng in the ground, Zhou Ziwen looked up with satisfaction.
After his hard work over the past few days, he has planted a lot of ginseng in the ginseng field. In his private plot, only a small area has not yet planted ginseng.
According to the current progress, this piece of yellow land will be fully planted in a few days.
Looking at the time, it was almost time to get off work. Zhou Ziwen clapped his hands, told the little one lying in the doghouse to be careful, and then packed up and went home.
This side of the ginseng land has basically become Xiaobudian's territory. Except for when Tayun comes to take over the shift during meal times, Xiaobudian is the one watching over it all the time.
After returning home and putting down his things, Zhou Ziwen quickly came to the mushroom house.
"Team Leader Zhou."
"Team Leader Zhou, you're here!"
"Brother Zhou."
When he arrived at the mushroom house, he saw his teammates greeting him one after another.
Zhou Ziwen has a good relationship with the members of the mushroom group, which is also related to the fact that he does not keep the mushroom growing technology to himself.
In addition, he is humble and everyone respects him.
"Haha, how's the Mushroom House today? Nothing went wrong, right?"
Zhou Ziwen asked with a smile.
"No problem, these mushrooms are good! In my opinion, they can be harvested now."
Wang Dayou from the group spoke up.
"It's still a little early for the harvest. Let's wait a couple of days. Prepare everything you need tomorrow so you don't get caught up in a rush."
Zhou Ziwen ordered.
The preparations he mentioned were actually some tools for harvesting mushrooms.
After all, the quantity of mushrooms in the batch is quite large. If you don’t prepare them in advance, it will take a while to finish them.
"No problem, I'll go see Accountant Zhu tomorrow."
Wang Dayou nodded.
During this period, Zhou Ziwen observed the members of the Mushroom Group and found that Wang Dayou was a good person and a suitable candidate for team leader.
Of course, in line with the principle of treating everyone equally, whether you can become a team leader depends on whether you pass his assessment.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
Zhou Ziwen nodded and handed the task to him.
Then, Zhou Ziwen walked around the rooms of the mushroom house to get a clear idea of the growth conditions of the mushrooms.
His mushroom-growing skill has reached level seven, and his planting skill is also improving. Because the types are the same, some of the experience differences are not big, and by analogy, the two skills can be said to complement each other.
At the end of the day, the proficiency gained from AFK is much greater than that of other skills.
This discovery surprised Zhou Ziwen a little.
However, he only paid a little attention to it, after all, the planting skills themselves included growing mushrooms.
It's actually a bit of a waste for him to use these two skills at the same time.
