For the next half day, Zhou Ziwen wandered around in the mountains.
By the time he was about to get off work, he had already gained a lot.
Three rabbits, a badger, a hedgehog, and two pheasants.
There are about thirty ginseng plants and some other valuable herbs.
Half a basket of wild vegetables and a handful of wild fruits.
In addition, he accidentally discovered a spring bud tree, from which he picked half a bag of fresh spring buds, enough for them to eat for a few days.
Spring buds are good things, especially when used to make scrambled eggs, they taste delicious.
However, for some people, spring buds, like Houttuynia cordata and coriander, make them frown when they smell them.
But for those who like it, it is a delicacy.
Zhou Ziwen is not picky about food and particularly likes this kind of thing.
He has already noted the location of the spring bud tree he discovered today and plans to come back to pick some later.
"Tayun, let's go home."
Zhou Ziwen waved to Tayun who was not far away, then strode down the mountain.
Today was a great harvest. The meat alone was enough for them to eat for a while.
Of course, this is inseparable from the credit of Tayun. If it weren’t for its sharp ears, it wouldn’t be so easy to find prey.
Even though Zhou Ziwen's Bajiquan has reached the tenth level, his physical fitness has been enhanced and his five senses have become sharp, but he is still far behind Tayun.
In some ways, humans and animals are really incomparable.
On the way down the mountain, Zhou Ziwen found a dead tree and chopped it down.
He had stored a batch of firewood when he was hibernating, but after a winter, the firewood at home was almost burned out. Now he encountered a dead tree, which was a good opportunity to replenish it.
A dead tree felt as light as a feather in his hand.
This time, Zhou Ziwen reaped a lot of rewards.
He had a full backpack on his back, two sacks in his hands, a bow and arrow hanging on his shoulders, and a quiver at his waist.
Although this outfit seems a bit out of place, it is acceptable.
With his looks, no matter how ugly he dresses, on him, it will only make people feel that it is his personality.
He walked all the way down the mountain, and when he returned home, the Chen sisters had not returned yet.
He tidied up things a little, then took the ginseng to the ginseng field.
In his eyes, these ginsengs are treasures. These have just been dug out and need to be transplanted as soon as possible.
As soon as he left the house, the Chen sisters came back.
When they saw the things piled up in the yard, they knew without a doubt that they were left by Zhou Ziwen.
Although I didn't see him, I could roughly guess where he went.
After all, he told them at noon that he was going to the mountains to dig ginseng.
"Sister, Brother Ziwen should be going to the fields. I'll go find him!"
Chen Qiaoyi rolled her eyes and spoke.
"Where are you going?" Chen Shiying glanced at her sister.
"I'm going to help Brother Ziwen!" Chen Qiaoyi said as a matter of course.
"How can you help? It's more like making things worse." Chen Shiying rolled her eyes in annoyance.
How much does her younger sister weigh? ...
"Oh, sister, just let me go. What if he needs help?"
Chen Qiaoyi hugged her arm and shook her.
"Okay, I'm scared of you. Go and come back quickly!"
Chen Shiying glanced at her sister helplessly, but still agreed.
"Hehe, thank you, sis. You're the best."
Chen Qiaoyi kissed her on the cheek and then ran happily towards the ginseng field.
"This girl."
Chen Shiying shook her head helplessly, with a doting smile on her face.
…
On this side, Zhou Ziwen didn't stay in the ginseng field for long.
With the help of Chen Qiaoyi, or rather her company, the ginseng dug up today was quickly planted.
After adding some nutrient solution, the ginseng transplantation was completed.
After that, you just need to maintain it regularly and don’t need to worry too much.
When he and Chen Qiaoyi returned home, Chen Shiying had almost prepared dinner.
After dinner, Zhou Ziwen took out the prey he had caught today and started processing it, skinning the ones that needed to be skinned and plucking the hairs that needed to be plucked.
The rabbit meat is marinated and air-dried for a few days to make dried rabbit.
Badger meat can be made into jerky, which can be used as a snack or as a dish.
The hedgehog meat was slightly processed and prepared to be cooked tomorrow.
He planned to give one of the last two pheasants to Uncle Wu and the other to Master Chen.
These two people, one took good care of him, and the other taught him skills. Both are his elders.
As for the captain, he has no shortage of food, so let alone giving him gifts, he would probably be kicked out as soon as he entered the door.
The captain's upright character had long been known in the village, and he didn't want to get into trouble.
As for Wu Dagang, he would definitely not accept anything given to him by others, but if it was Zhou Ziwen, he would accept it after some persistent persuasion.
Who told him to truly treat Zhou Ziwen as his junior?
It would be inappropriate not to accept gifts from younger generations.
"Kid, just come if you want to. What else do you want to give me?"
Aunt Chen looked at Zhou Ziwen reproachfully.
"Hey, this is too much. My family can't finish it in a short time."
Zhou Ziwen explained with a smile.
"Xiao Zhou is capable, but you still have to be careful of danger. The mountains are not safe."
Aunt Chen gave earnest advice.
"Okay, I'll be careful." Zhou Ziwen nodded seriously.
Although he no longer needed to worry about any danger on the mountain, he still felt the concern of Aunt Chen.
With his current abilities, he can roam freely in the deep mountains and old forests. To him, the mountains are a treasure land rich in resources.
When he has free time, he plans to stay in the mountains for a few days and go to some farther places to have a look.
In places where few people go, you might be able to find some precious things.
If you are lucky, it is possible to find ginseng that is dozens or even hundreds of years old.
If he could find that thing, just one of them would make him a millionaire.
"Ziwen, the mushrooms in the mushroom house will be harvested tomorrow. What are you going to do next?"
Wu Dagang asked.
In the past two days, he has been staying in the mushroom house, watching the large mushrooms being transported out, his heart filled with joy.
In his eyes, these mushrooms are money!
As for Zhou Ziwen's slacking off and absenteeism, he had long since selectively ignored it.
Special matters need special treatment. For a capable person like Zhou Ziwen, not to mention that he would obediently punch in for work every day, even if he never went to work, as long as he could grow mushrooms, it didn't matter whether he went to work or not.
By now, Zhou Ziwen’s importance has reached its highest level.
"The next step is the same as before. A new batch of mushroom spawn has been prepared and we can start planting as soon as the mushroom harvest is completed."
Zhou Ziwen spoke with a smile.
"I'm glad you're prepared." Wu Dagang nodded with relief.
Although this kid is lazy, he never neglects his important work.
For him, as long as he doesn't delay his work, nothing else matters. (End of this chapter)
