Chapter 603 Greedy Drool (24)

about a quarter of an hour later

The pile of bamboo was all moved down the mountain.

The two brothers took the bamboo back home, and began to scrape and peel the bamboo strips, preparing to weave the fence.

"Brother, what do we want to weave?" Zhang Yi looked at a pile of bamboos and asked Zhang Feng a little at a loss.

"What else do you want to weave? Isn't it enough to simply intersect horizontally and vertically?" Zhang Feng rolled his eyes, thinking that with our brother's level, can we still weave a flower?
"Hey, that's good. In fact, I think so too!" Hearing Zhang Feng's words, Zhang Yi nodded reassuringly. He can do such a simple fence.

This kind of fence that crosses vertically and vertically, the weaving technique is the simplest.

First, split the bamboo into a shape of one meter long and three centimeters wide, and then cut a part of the slender bamboo strips for weaving.
Then start weaving from the middle, take a bamboo strip, fold it in half from the middle, pin it on the first bamboo, and so on, pin it one by one

After knitting about No. 20, you can fold it back, repeat the knitting for the second time, and knit back and forth four to five times in this way, so that the middle section is fixed and the knitting is completed.

Then start knitting the next section, the same method.

In fact, this is the same as playing football or a dog going around a pile, crossing forward, and returning at the end.

Of course, the gap between the bamboo strips can be adjusted according to the needs. For example, Zhang Yi’s fence is used to keep the chickens, so the gap needs to be very small, about two centimeters is fine.

"Okay, you two brothers did a good job in making up!"

The second uncle came back from a visit to the entrance of the village, and saw that Zhang Feng and his brothers made up something well, so he said with a smile.

"Hey, I made it up randomly!" Zhang Feng and the two smiled. Although they said so, they were still very happy to be praised by the second uncle.

"That's right, but the amount of bamboo the two of you got is definitely not enough. You can cut twice as much, and I'll make the fence first." The second uncle looked at the bamboo in the yard, and then asked Zhang Feng. The brothers said.

"Okay, Zhang Yi, let's go!"

Zhang Feng and Zhang Yi picked up the tools again, put the hatchet and saw on the car, and drove three wheels towards the back mountain.

"Xiaoyi cut the mianzhu longer this time, and it should be about four meters, otherwise it won't be easy to use when weaving fences."

"Understood bro!!"

This time, the two brothers followed the old rules. Zhang Feng was in charge of cutting bamboos, and Zhang Yi saw them into sections, which not only made it easier to get down the mountain, but also facilitated transportation.

The two brothers are of one mind, and their profits cut through gold.

This time, it only took half an hour to chop more than 20 bamboos.

Most of them are mian bamboo, only two are mottled bamboo.

"Haha, brother, look what good things I found?" Suddenly Zhang Yi shouted in surprise.

Zhang Feng looked back,
Whoa!Really good stuff!
"You kid is lucky! You actually found both bamboo worms!!"

"Hey, luck, it's all luck." Zhang Yi smiled happily. He really didn't expect to find bamboo worms even when sawing a piece of bamboo.

"Quickly, wrap the taro leaves and don't let them run away!!" Seeing that the bamboo worms were frightened and about to crawl away, Zhang Feng reminded immediately.

Hearing Zhang Feng's reminder, Zhang Yi didn't move too slowly. He quickly picked up two taro leaves and stuffed the bamboo worms into them.

The two brothers were like catching ants, with fast hands, they wrapped all the bamboo worms in the taro leaves in less than a minute, and finally tied them with thatch, like rice dumplings, so that the bamboo worms would be sure to Can't run.

"Oh, it's a pity that there are a few less!" Looking at the bamboo worm wrapped in taro leaves in his hand, Zhang Yi sighed.

"Sigh, hurry up and work. Let's look for it after finishing the work. There must be a lot in the bamboo forest!" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Okay, then let's work first!" Zhang Yi didn't hesitate, he put the bamboo worm aside, picked up the saw and started working again.

Bamboo worm has another name called bamboo bee, bamboo maggot, and some places also call it " bamboo shoot maggot ".

It gnaws on young bamboo shoots to absorb nutrients, grows from the size of a grain of rice to as thick as a finger within 20 days, parasitizes in the bamboo tube, eats from the tip of the bamboo one by one, and finally hides in the roots.

Bamboo worms are rich in protein and amino acids.Look at the appearance of the bamboo worm. It is plump and white, about 3 cm long, with a spindle-shaped body, round and round, with narrow eyes and a small black mouth. Some people praise it for its cuteness, and some people hate it for being disgusting.

But bamboo worms are sweet and fragrant, and seem to have a creamy taste.Therefore, bamboo worm is also a rare delicacy in Qingshan, and it is one of the best appetizers when everyone drinks.

Although the taste of bamboo worms is good, the damage to bamboo is particularly great. Almost every bamboo with bamboo worms will eventually dry up and die.

Therefore, the local people are very happy to go to the mountains to look for bamboo worms. As long as they find bamboo worms, they will catch them and eat them. This is the simplest and most brutal treatment method, and it is also very useful.

……

After a while, the work of the two brothers was almost done!
So the two began to look for traces of bamboo insects in the bamboo forest.

In fact, the way to find bamboo worms is also very simple, just look for fresh holes in the bamboo, if there are fresh holes in the bamboo, then there are eight or nine out of ten bamboo insects in it.

"Brother, take a look, there should be something inside!" Soon, Zhang Yi discovered a hole in a piece of bamboo.

"Not bad! Not bad!! Let's chop it up first!"

When Zhang Feng saw it, his face was overjoyed, and he raised the hatchet and started chopping.

After about ten seconds,

The bamboo clicked and fell to the ground.

Zhang Feng cut open the bamboo joint with holes, and the densely packed bamboo insects appeared in front of the two of them.

"so many!!"

"Hehe, the harvest is good this time, it should be about half a catty!!" It is really rare to be able to harvest half a catty of bamboo worms at a time. I have to say that Zhang Feng and his brother are really lucky.

"I'm going to pick taro leaves!"

Just as Zhang Yi was about to act, he was stopped by Zhang Feng.

"No, can't we just use this piece of bamboo to pretend? You come and cover the mouth of the bamboo, and I'll saw it off."

The two brothers cooperated with each other, and soon a complete bamboo tube was sawed off.

Just block the mouth of the bamboo tube with bamboo leaves so that the bamboo insects will not come out.

With this harvest, the two brothers were also very excited and continued to search for traces of bamboo insects in the bamboo forest.

I have to say that bamboo worms are really hateful. In this one-two-acre bamboo forest, the two brothers found five or six places. If they hadn't discovered them, there would definitely be more bamboos that would be harmed next year.

The embankment of a thousand miles is destroyed by ant nests, and the harm of bamboo insects is also the same. Only timely prevention and control can effectively curb the disaster of bamboo insects.

"Hey, there are so many bamboo worms, there will be appetizers for drinking at night!" Thinking of the golden fried bamboo worms, Zhang Yi laughed cheerfully.

"What are you thinking? Are you drooling?" Seeing Zhang Yi's smirk, Zhang Feng asked curiously.

"Ah?" Zhang Yi was stunned for a while before he realized,
Wiping the corners of his mouth with his hands, he couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Brother, you're teasing me again! There's no saliva!"

"Hey, what do you say?"
