Chapter 43 Shaving
There is a big project today, shaving wool!
Early in the morning, Qiao Xi dug out the small razor that the construction team had given her when they were renovating the house.
A small tool that uses attribute energy as pushing teeth. Josh tried it, filled the big-tailed yak with energy, and then easily pushed a tuft of hair on its butt.
The big-tailed yak felt its buttocks were cold, so it swung its tail and looked at Qiao Xi suspiciously: "Moo~" Why did it feel a little weird?
"It's an illusion." Qiao Xi quickly walked to the big-tailed yak and pulled it to eat grass. Nothing happened.
The jumping lambs were still running around happily, and Josh didn't call them specifically. He just grabbed one and started shaving.
The victim sheep: “Baa!” The sheep is killed!
Other lambs:!!!
Josh didn't care about the other lambs that had run away. Whoever he caught would be the one. As for the ones he didn't catch, he would deal with them after they returned to the sheepfold.
With a "hiss", Qiao Xi started shaving from the sheep's belly, shaving the short, tangled, dirty and smelly hair first, and then moved up along the belly, shaving large pieces of thick, marketable wool and putting them aside. She clamped the disobedient lamb between her legs and carefully trimmed every inch of skin before letting the lamb go.
The lamb was a little uncomfortable with being naked after being shaved, but it found that it could jump higher, which was great!
What? Can they jump higher? The lambs stopped hiding and rushed to Qiao Xi's arms, vowing to be the first to jump higher than the other lambs!
Now we have something to do.
Josh shaved the wool of the sheep one by one. The small clipper failed several times. The energy of the lambs was too low and they couldn't control the charging. The big-tailed yak ran out to the snow mountain to play. Fortunately, the brown-headed vulture flew over to the rescue.
The lambs that hadn't been shaved yet were bleating anxiously, and the brown-headed vultures didn't come. Josh really didn't know what to do.
This small clipper is quite old. It will basically become useless after shaving three or four lambs. The attribute energy has been in a dissipated state after being replenished, and the dissipation speed is accelerated during operation, so it is not durable.
Only the Brown-headed Vulture was left to watch over Josh and shave his hair, but with it around, the lambs became much more well-behaved.
Qiao Xi vaguely heard a lamb say that it looked like a big eagle that eats sheep. It was very scary, and he burst out laughing.
It's unfair for Zongzong. Since it came to Weiguang Farm, it has rarely eaten meat. On weekdays, it only eats small fish, shrimps and fruits. Of course, eating insects does not count. How can it be a big eagle?
But its black color is indeed very deceptive.
It has been a while since it came to the farm from the Elf Career Office. The Brown-headed Vulture's originally gray feathers have now become shiny black, and its body has become much stronger. Well, it's a good bird.
One after another, after shearing the last lamb, the wool behind Josh had piled up into a small mountain, and his whole body was covered with wool.
She didn't know how to deal with these things, so she packed them up and stuffed them all into the shipping box. She would just sell them for as much as she could, as the quality of this batch of wool was not good.
By the way, he took a look at today's recommended plantings, and Josh realized that the recommended plantings might fluctuate every day, and he couldn't believe them blindly.
By the way, he took a look at the bitter candies and giant lemons. The prices have been low these days, and Josh was too lazy to pick them, so he just let them hang on the trees.
I haven't been to the fields for several days, and I wonder how the taro beads are doing.
"Wow." You won't know until you go there. You'll be shocked. The beautiful taro balls are as big and plump as eggs. They hang on the taro leaves like a series of wind chimes. When the wind blows, Qiao Xi is afraid that these big fruits will fall off.
When the taro bamboo grows to the right size, it will start to sprout continuously. As a result, it has a high yield and grows fast, which is great.
Qiao Xi began to pick taro beads in baskets. The big ones were easy to pick, and soon her space backpack was full.
Let's sell these first. Looking at so many high-quality taro beads, Qiao Xi is reluctant to sell them. The price given for the shipping box is that of ordinary goods. The overall quality of her taro beads is far above the average, so it would be a big loss to sell them like this.
Ask the communicator if anyone wants it, maybe there is.
At this time, Josh found a greeting message from Jas yesterday afternoon. He asked if the lambs were safe and asked if Josh's farm had any production now, as they needed to purchase a batch of agricultural products.
Hey, it's like a pillow has been found. Josh took a photo of the bald lambs, and then took a photo of the fruitful bitter candies and giant lemons, and sent them all to Jas.
This is to fulfill the conditions they had stated before.
As for the existing products on the farm, Josh didn't care whether they wanted them now or not. The key was to let them know that Weiguang Farm had these things. If they needed them next time, wouldn't they come to him?
Okay, now we just have to wait for news from the big bosses in the legion.
But for now, he sold the fresh ones first. Qiao Xi stuffed the freshly picked fruits into the shipping box and kept a basket for himself.
Each lamb that passed by was rewarded with a taro bead. The taro seemed to have a special smell, which was a bit pungent for the lambs. Qiao Xi just discovered that although they liked to stick to her, they never followed her to the taro field.
But they do like the taro beads very much and are enjoying chewing them one by one.
The rest was left for the big-tailed yak, which loved it the most.
After finally making a good dinner to reward himself, Josh stretched deeply and loosened his stiff limbs.
What are we having for dinner tonight?
Got it!
Josh set up a small stove, lit the fire, took out a piece of rich butter and melted it over low heat.
Divide the washed taro into three pieces and fry them slowly over low heat in a pan. They will soften and release water in a short while. Rinse the remaining wheat rice with clean water to increase the moisture.
As soon as Qiao Xi went out in the morning, he saw a few sweet mushrooms at the door. He didn't know whether they were sent by the rock rat or the digging pig. They were white, plump and fragrant. Just thinking about it made him drool.
Cut the umbrella and the handle into two parts, fry them slightly with the butter used to fry the taro beads. When the edges are slightly burnt and smell fragrant, you can pour the wheat rice into the pot, add a little milk, and sprinkle with the spices you bought earlier.
Cover the lid and keep it for a few minutes: five, four, three, two, one, then open the lid.
The misty vapor rose up, filling Josh's face with fragrance.
The taro and sweet mushroom baked rice is ready!
Eating the sweet and rich baked rice and feeling the cool breeze, Qiao Xi swept away all the fatigue in his body and felt refreshed and comfortable all over.
The digging pigs also came back from the mountains. They hadn't worn muzzles for the past two days. Qiao Xi was still thinking about how to tell them that the muzzles placed at the door were for them, as if these muzzles were tools to exploit their labor no matter what.
Suddenly I saw a few little pigs push open their muzzles and put them on by themselves, but they fell off because no one fastened the buttons on them.
No way, this pig boss is too comprehensive, he has taught me everything!
My dears, how can I describe the pig's arched mouth in Mandarin? I feel like I can't find the right words to express it. Please vote for me!
