Fleeing the wasteland and farming: don't panic, the family's metaphysics boss

Chapter 254 Selling of Medicinal Materials

Lao Huang's family couldn't help but be overjoyed by the Banlangen waiting to be harvested all over the place. In their eyes, it was not a medicinal material, but white money.And with hope in my heart, I can work even more vigorously.

Holding a sickle, Lao Huang excitedly asked Zhui Feng, "Boss Zhu, how do you harvest this? Cut by the root?" The crops are all cut by the root, and Lao Huang also took it for granted that this medicinal material is also.

Zhufeng smiled and waved his hands: "That can't be done. The isatid root should be harvested separately from the big green leaves and the isatid root.

This big green leaf can be cut twice a year.The first time was in mid-June, and the second time is now.The best way to harvest big green leaves is to cut from the base half an inch above the ground. "Speaking and demonstrating.

Then he said: "In the first ten days of October, when the stems and leaves on the ground wither, you can dig the roots in the ground. Remember to dig deep to avoid damaging the roots."

Lao Huang nodded his head: "Then let's cut the big green leaves first. What will happen after that? There are so many big green leaves, what should we do if we cut them?" In fact, he wanted to ask, has the buyer decided?Will there be silver after today's harvest?But he didn't bother to ask directly.

Zhuifeng naturally guessed what he was thinking, and said: "Dried medicine is more expensive than crude medicine. This isatid root is easy to handle. After you harvest it, spread it out in a clean place, dry it until it is [-]% to [-]% dry, then tie it into small bundles, and continue to dry it. until completely dry.

The same is true when digging the roots later. Remove the soil, reed heads and stems and leaves from the fresh roots, wash them, spread them in a clean place to dry until [-]% to [-]% dry, tie them into small bundles, and then dry them in the sun, then put them in sacks directly storage. "

"So simple?" Lao Huang was a little surprised, thinking that making dry medicine would be troublesome.

Chasing the wind said: "Drying sounds simple, but don't be careless. The big green leaves should be big, less broken, clean, dark green, and have no musty smell; the root of isatidis should be straight, thick and firm , Those with powdery feet are better.

Excessive exposure will cause the leaves to yellow, shatter, and roots to shrivel; insufficient exposure will cause mold.So you have to take care of them every day, don't be lazy. "

Lao Huang suddenly nodded and said again and again that he understood.

With 32 plots of land and thirteen households of tenant farmers, Zhuifeng and old man Xu were busy separately, and they ran out in one day.In the evening, the two finally returned to Taoyaju.

At the dinner table, Zhuifeng talked about the harvest of the day, "Thirteen acres of land have already been harvested today, and the rest can be harvested in September or October."

Then she looked at Qingyu, the junior sister of the sect leader said that she had her own plan for the medicinal materials, but she never said clearly what to do.

The old man Xu continued: "The next batch of medicines has to be prepared to buy."

Most of the existing medicinal materials in the field are not winter medicinal materials, but there are also medicinal materials such as platycodon grandiflorum, Bupleurum, and Atractylodes macrocephala that are suitable for winter planting and spring harvest.After all the medicinal materials are harvested in October, the land will be vacated, just in time for planting.

Zhuifeng nodded: "I also plan to buy medicine seeds in these two days." It's just started now, and when there are more kinds of medicinal materials planted in the future, the medicine seeds can be kept by themselves, and there is no need to go to such troublesome places to buy medicine seeds anymore .

Qingyu said: "I have other plans for the sale of medicinal materials, we will not sell them for the time being, and all medicinal materials will be made into dry medicine.

In addition, we have to purchase medicinal materials aggressively. The purchase price of medicinal materials in Yinzhou is low. My father and Grandpa Xu can discuss our price. It should not be too high, but it must be higher than the existing price in Yinzhou. "

"Purchasing medicinal materials?" Zhuifeng and old man Xu were both taken aback.Chasing the wind thought for a while, "Are we going to be a drug dealer and open a drug store?"

Qing Yu smiled slightly, "Yes, and no."

Everyone at the table was confused, but Shi'an was smiling.

"The more the better?" Chasing Wind asked again.

Qing Yu nodded and said: "Father is definitely too busy alone, and we have to find some more farmers who understand medicinal materials. Although we can't harvest all the towns, we can harvest as much as we can."

The old man Xu said: "I'll go back to the mountains tomorrow. There are many medicine farmers in the mountains. Give them some money for running errands, and they will be very happy." After all, who would have trouble with money.

"Grandpa, just rest, I'll go." Zhufeng refused.The road in the mountains is not easy to walk, and he is in his eighties, so there is no need for old man Xu to go back and forth.

"I can still do it." Old man Xu patted his legs anxiously, "I can still walk."

"You can rest if you can walk or not." Zhufeng said with a smile: "And this trip will take more than half a month, and you have to help take care of the medicine field, in case the tenants meet What's the problem."

Having said that, old man Xu didn't insist any longer. After thinking about it, he said, "Then I'll choose some people for you, all of whom are trustworthy."

Xu Lan said with an apologetic expression: "I know you well in the mountains." But Juxianzhai is still busy, and she really doesn't have time.

"You are busy with your work." Zhufeng shook his head.Then he discussed the purchase price with old man Xu.

"I think it's [-]% higher than the Yinzhou drug dealer's price. It should be about the same." Old man Xu has sold medicinal materials for decades, and he knows the price. The [-]% higher price is actually the ideal price in his mind.

Qingyu reminded: "The acquisitions are mainly common trauma medicinal materials."

Zhufeng was suspicious, but he agreed.After finishing the meal, he got down from the table and went with the old man Xu to determine the medicinal materials to be purchased and the purchase price of the medicinal materials.

Heart yawned and got down from the table, "Recently, there have been a lot of people coming to Tongyuan to look at the house. I have been running all day today, and I am really tired. I am going to rest first."

Everyone else at the table advised her to go and rest quickly, then Wen Ya and Shi An cleaned up the table and the dishes, while Xu Lan discussed with Qing Yu about Ju Xian Zhai.

"The location of the shop has already been checked by Qian Lao Er, so it should not be a big problem. I also asked a few vegetable farmers in my hometown today, and I plan to go to the countryside tomorrow to see and compare prices.

Then there's the clerk and the cashier, I'm a little unsure. "Especially the accountant, who manages the money, doesn't know the basics, and it's really a bit unreliable.

Qingyu nodded slightly, "Leave all the candidates for Juxianzhai to me. In addition, you have to make a food list first. With the food list, everything can be prepared accordingly."

Xu Lan said: "I've already written the food list, and I only prepared a hundred dishes for the time being, and I want to wait half a year for a new one.

It's just that the price has to be decided by Miss San.I'm going to get the menu. "Then hurried out of the dining hall and returned to the house, and came back with four lists in a short while.

Qing Yu took the food list and looked at it, very satisfied: "Fortunately, you also know a lot about medicinal materials, this food list is well prepared."

Xu Lan pursed her lips and smiled, overjoyed.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhuifeng went out alone with a bag on his back; Wenya and Hongtao also went to their respective lands; followed by Xu Lan, who also carried a bag on his back and was going to go to the countryside to find vegetable farmers. The old man Xu couldn't sit still at home, so he followed The granddaughter went out together.

Xu Lan thought that he was going to go to the countryside with her, so she persuaded: "Grandpa, go and play with your friends, I'll be fine by myself."

Old man Xu said, "I'm going to Pingpo Village to look at the medicine fields. Anyway, I'm just idle."

Xu Lan groaned, thought for a while, and said, "Then grandpa, by the way, ask to see if there are any livestock farmers over there."

The old man Xu said hello, looking at Xu Lan with a smile on his face, he couldn't help feeling: "I've been here for three months, and I'm really happy to see you this time."

Xu Lan laughed, "Really? I am very happy now, I have found something I can do."

The old man Xu was very relieved, thought for a moment, and said: "The cook is a man's job. If Juxianzhai is to grow, it will definitely recruit other cooks, but don't be timid. Your cooking skills are better than anyone else's." Everyone is strong."

Xu Lan chuckled, although she knew that it was Grandpa who praised her on purpose, she was still very happy, "Don't worry, Grandpa, Miss San said that I will definitely become a famous person in the future."

　I finally know that I can't talk too much in the future, otherwise I will feel piapia pain when I slap my face.In fact, it's nothing, it's just that Kawen's head hurts suddenly. emm has one more update today, which makes me a little less embarrassed.Try hard to add more updates this month, work hard.
