Chapter 412 Seed Collection in Gansu



Black General recovered from his injuries after a while, but the dog was old and didn't like to move around much.

When Zhuangzhuang came closer, General Black merely lifted his eyelids, glanced at Zhuangzhuang, and then continued to doze off.

Erlang Shen glanced at Zhuangzhuang, raised his paw, then lowered it again for some reason, turned around and went back to his den, where he lay down and wouldn't come out.

Neither of the two old dogs paid any attention to Zhuangzhuang, but the puppies played with the tiger cubs.

Especially Zhaocai and Wangfu, they grew up drinking yellow milk with Huahua and got along well with her. They were also very friendly to Jiaojiao and Zhuangzhuang.

When Jiaojiao saw Zhuangzhuang playing well with the dogs, she went over to join in. When Sheng Xinhua and Sheng Xinyu saw this, they also ran over to join in the fun.

Now things are really chaotic; the yard is practically in complete disarray, if not chaotic.

While the children were playing with the tiger cubs and the dog, Sheng Xiping quickly finished his work.

After processing what needed to be processed, wash the basket several times with clean water and scrub it clean with a brush.

The flesh of the sugar plum is acidic, and the mesh at the bottom of this basket is wire mesh. If it is not cleaned properly, the wire mesh will easily rust.

After cleaning the wire mesh, hang it on the outside wall to air dry. In the evening, apply some oil and heat it over a fire to prevent rust and increase its lifespan.

It took Sheng Xiping almost a week to finally gather thirty catties of seeds and put them into bags.

Each bag was labeled with the names of the owner and their sister, the species of tree, and the weight. The bags were then handed over by the forest farm and sent to the remote Northwest.

After collecting the tree seeds, and with some time still to go before the winter harvest, these young men were unwilling to stay idle at home, so they went out together to collect pine nuts.

Sheng Xiping doesn't rely on making a lot of money from pine nuts; he mainly eats them himself and gives them away as gifts. He gives away quite a few to relatives and friends every year.

This thing doesn't cost much, it just takes a bit of work. Before we start working on it, let's make a little bit.

One day in mid-October, Sheng Xiping carried a sack of pine cones home at noon. As soon as he entered the yard, he heard a burst of laughter from his family.

"Oh, we have guests? Who is it?" Sheng Xiping threw the sack in the yard and stepped into the house.

"Xiping, come here quickly. This is your older brother from our hometown, Yantai. He came here specially this time."

Sheng Liancheng was at home, talking to a man who was a little older than him. When he saw his son come back, Sheng Liancheng quickly introduced him.

"Oh, it's your older brother! Look, we didn't even get a message. We should have gone to Songjiang River to pick you up."

Sheng Xiping was initially stunned, but after a moment's thought, he remembered that he did have such a cousin.

I heard my family mention it when I went back to my hometown before.

Sheng Xiyun served in the army and fought in battles, sometimes fighting alongside his troops to Siping and Changchun.

Later, Sheng Xiyun was wounded. After recovering, one of his legs was crooked and he walked with a limp. He could no longer go to the battlefield, so he was demobilized and transferred back to civilian life. He worked in a unit in Yantai and enjoyed the benefits of a disabled veteran.

"Hey, what's the point of answering? Back in the day, I traveled all over the country with the army, I've been everywhere."

"My uncle happened to run into you when he went back to his hometown last time. He got your address, so I came here." Sheng Xiyun laughed heartily.

"I'm also on a business trip here, to my workplace. I heard there's a coal mine in Songshu Town around here, and they say the coal here is particularly good."

Let me come and take a look, and discuss whether we can send a trailer of good coal over for our unit's own use.

When I saw that it wasn't too far from my uncle's house, I decided to stop by and visit my uncle, aunt, and my younger siblings.

"Wow, you have to travel all this way to buy coal? Brother, so you haven't been to the Songshu Town coal mine yet?"

Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiping understood somewhat.
