Zhou Huaijun looked at him and shook his head, "Is this still the lazy youngest son of our family? Sometimes I wonder if it's really like what is written in Liao Zhai, that there is a Lu Pan who replaces people's heads?"
Zhou Huaian rolled his eyes at him, "I don't want to bother with you!"
"Haha!" Zhou Huaijun picked up the hoe and said, "Hurry up and work. Try to carry more yellow mud over, so that the third child won't be able to make it in time tomorrow."
People these days are very honest at work. Old Xu and Old Zhao, the father and son who were invited to help, did their work very quickly.
Together with Zhou's father and son, there were eight strong laborers, and the work progressed very quickly. The yellow mud in front of the drying shed soon piled up like a small mountain.
The golden crow sets in the west, and the jade rabbit rises in the east.
Zhou Huaian stood on the top of the mountain and had looked at the main road in the village several times. As the sky was getting dark, Yang Chunyan and the others still didn't see anyone.
Thinking of the wild animals and poisonous insects hiding in the mountains, he could not wait any longer, "Brother, I'll go see why Chunyan and the others haven't come back yet."
Zhou Huairong nodded, "Push this truck of mud over there, and go down the mountain to take a look!"
“Yes.”
Zhou Huaian put down the hoe, held the handlebars, pushed the cart in a hurry to the place where bricks were made, put down the cart, went to the drying shed, pushed the bicycle towards Fangtian.
Yang Chunyan and her friends had already arrived at the bamboo forest.
Zhang Xiuxiang had been walking for so long that her meridians were probably unblocked, and she felt much more agile than when she first came down the mountain.
As soon as they walked out of the bamboo forest, they saw Fang Zhiqiang hurriedly walking towards the mountain, "Sister, Brother-in-law Fang is here to pick you up."
Fang Zhiqiang saw a few people, stopped, and said to Yang Xiaoxue: "Where have you been? It's almost dark."
"He's going to the top of the mountain." Yang Xiaoxue glanced at him, "Why are you still standing there? Help carry the backpack!"
"No wonder it took so long!" He stepped forward to take Yang Xiaoxue's basket and immediately saw the Ganoderma lucidum in her basket. "Is this Ganoderma lucidum?"
"Well! We're lucky today. We found more than a dozen flowers." Yang Xiaoxue put down the basket and walked towards Zhang Xiuxiang, "Second sister-in-law, give me the basket."
"It's okay, my feet don't hurt anymore."
"Don't be so polite to me!" Yang Xiaoxue took her backpack without saying a word.
“Trouble!”
When they came down the mountain, they saw Zhou Huaian riding a bicycle towards them.
Fang Zhiqiang smiled and said, "Look, Huai'an can't wait any longer and has come to pick you up."
Zhou Huaian also saw a few people, turned his bike around and rode towards the foot of the mountain, "Brother-in-law Fang is going up the mountain with us?"
"No, I'm worried about them, so I'll go up the mountain and pick them up in the bamboo forest."
Yang Chunyan and the others put down their backpacks and said, "It's good that you are here. Take all the backpacks away so that we can have some relief."
Zhou Huaian got out of the car and set up the vehicle. "Put everything down and hang the backpack on the back seat."
Yang Chunyan and the other two put down their backpacks and said to Yang Xiaoxue, "Sister, you and your husband go back first. We will go up the mountain tomorrow morning."
"Okay, I'll wait for you guys at home tomorrow." Yang Xiaoxue and the other person walked a few steps and then turned back and asked, "Is Huai'an going into the city tomorrow?"
"Yes, we will be at the tractor road ahead around five o'clock tomorrow."
Yang Xiaoxue said to Fang Zhiqiang: "You can go to the city with Huai'an tomorrow morning, so you will have company on the road!"
Fang Zhiqiang hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you at the intersection tomorrow morning."
“Yes!”
Zhou Huaian picked up the backpack and hung one on one side, and placed the other on the back seat of the car.
Yang Chunyan said to Zhang Xiuxiang: "Second sister-in-law, your feet hurt, so you should take a bicycle back home!"
Zhang Xiuxiang shook her head repeatedly, "No, I'll go with you."
Zhou Huaian looked at her, "Second sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Xiuxiang pointed at her feet and said, "We failed to catch the rabbit and almost fell into a pit. We also sprained our leg. Otherwise, we would have gone down the mountain a long time ago."
"Sit on the bike, I'll take you back." Zhou Huaian said as he was about to lift the backpack on the back seat down.
Zhang Xiuxiang hurriedly stopped him and said, "It doesn't hurt much anymore. I'd better walk back with Chunyan and the others."
Zhou Huaian had no choice but to nod his head, and after thinking about it, he asked Yang Chunyan, "Aren't you going back to your parents' home tomorrow? Why do you have to go up the mountain?"
"We found a lot of Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain over there. If it wasn't getting dark, we wouldn't have come down yet!" Yang Chunyan uncovered the grass covering the Ganoderma lucidum. "Let's go up the mountain to pick up the Ganoderma lucidum early tomorrow morning, and then go down the mountain to go home."
Zhou Huaian looked at the Ganoderma lucidum in the basket, "There are so many, probably about thirty kilograms, right?"
Yang Chunyan whispered, "There are also a few blood ganoderma of excellent quality."
"Oh!" Zhou Huaian knew it was a good thing from her look, "No wonder they were so busy that they didn't even rush back to their parents' home. It turned out that they found some good stuff in the mountains."
"We have just searched this side of Yinshan Mountain, and we haven't even reached the top of the mountain yet!" Yang Chunyan helped tie up the backpack, "You go first, we will carry this back."
"Okay, I'll tell you good news when we get back." Zhou Huaian got on the bike and pedaled hard.
After Yang Chunyan and the others relaxed, they realized that their legs felt like they were filled with lead. They dragged their heavy legs slowly forward.
Li Qiuyue looked at Yang Chunyan curiously, "Youngest, what good news do you have? Why do you have to go back to tell me?"
Yang Chunyan thought that there might be news about the purchase of tractors. "A few days ago, he asked Huang to help him inquire about the tractors. Maybe there is news."
Zhao Huifang and the others looked at her in surprise, "Are you really going to buy a tractor?"
"If there is one, we must buy one. Otherwise, how can we make it all by hand, including the barren hills we just rented, the hills behind the house, and the private plots?"
Li Qiuyue said happily: "I heard that a tractor can plow more than ten acres of land a day. It will be convenient for you to buy us."
Yang Chunyan smiled and said, "That's right, machines are much faster than cows."
Zhang Xiuxiang: "Chunyan, does your family still want to raise cattle?"
"Yes, I took a look the other day and found a big pit on the barren hill near my home. I can buy some cow grass seeds and spread them there, and then buy a few cows and a dozen black goats and drive them there to graze. That would be the best."
The three looked at her in surprise, "My God, are you planning to raise so many animals?"
Yang Chunyan spread her hands and said, "I don't want to raise pigs either, but there is such a large barren mountain, how can the manure from raising a few pigs be enough! Also, I think growing herbs is the same as growing vegetables, we also need to ferment some fertilizer and spread base fertilizer!"
Zhao Huifang nodded, "That's right! With so much land, how can we get any fertilizer?"
Li Qiuyue: "Why do you need manure to grow herbs? Those herbs in the wild grow well without fertilizer."
Zhang Xiuxiang: "You can't grow anything without fertilizer. After we open up the wasteland in the back mountain, we still have to spread some base fertilizer."
Li Qiuyue turned to Yang Chunyan and said, "How come I don't know where there is a pit next to the barren mountain where you live?"
Yang Chunyan also found it when she walked to the edge of the mountain in her previous life. "It's right next to the forest. It looks like three or four acres of land. It's as high as a two-story building. It looks like a water basin at home." (End of this chapter)
