Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 242 Harvesting of Mulberry Elm (one chapter owed today)
Han Li went to the two mansions of Mrs. Skirk's family one by one, and the closest one has changed a lot.

Then he came to the mansion in Nangang District, but after arriving, Han Li found that he could only watch from a distance but not get close.

The mansion is well preserved for some special reasons, and the front is surrounded by high iron fences.

The overall design of the mansion is a symmetrical structure in the shape of a "concave", which is a garden-like building in the style of a classical villa.

Its exterior wall as a whole is a large piece of ginger yellow as the background color, with white as embellishment and decoration.

The overall three-dimensional surface decoration is very elegant, which makes people look elegant and dignified.

It is said that this mansion has two floors above ground and one floor below ground. There is a ballroom of 100 square meters inside.

All kinds of situations are not enough to be seen in front of it even in the general mansion of later generations, but it is a pity that Han Li can't get close.

After that, Han Li went to the consulates that were originally located here, but unfortunately most of them were transferred to the state, and they were the ones that he could not easily get into.

However, Han Li has always been a very contented person, and he is very satisfied with what he has gained in the past two days. Naturally, he would not want to take risks to get involved like the first day.

Next, Han Li calmed down, and according to the news he had heard, he started to wander around like a tourist.

It seemed that Han Li's luck improved when he relaxed his mood. When passing by the ruins of a mansion, he saw a few middle-aged and middle-aged men coming out of the yard cursing.

"Hey, seeing that it's locked, I thought there was something good, so I tried a lot to pry it open, but there was nothing inside."

After the boys and girls left, Han Li began to observe the courtyard.

This is an old house with three floors, and the outer wall skin has fallen off in a bad shape.

Standing on the street, you can clearly see a huge elm tree in the yard. Although there are no leaves now, you can still see that it has not been pruned for a long time, and it is growing wildly.

The street gate is very tall, very thick, and very large, but now it is mottled and disfigured, and its original lines have been exposed.

Han Li was curious and wanted to go in and have a look. After stepping over the high threshold, he found that the courtyard inside was also not small.

A bluestone road with a width of about one meter was paved in the yard, but both sides of the road are now covered with withered grass as high as a person.

This dilapidated appearance was beyond description, and it gave Han Li the feeling of entering a barren village and wild house.

Han Liqing came to the living room on the first floor along the cobblestone road, and the situation in front of him made him curse inwardly.

Because the entire first floor here has been destroyed, and the original things inside may have been removed.

All the floors were pried up, and some places were even dug into deep pits.

The wall is smashed and pitted, is this caused by looking for some hidden secret room?

The windows and doors and the glass on the windows are all gone, leaving only empty frames, and some frames are gone.

There was garbage and dust all over the floor, cobwebs all over the walls, and various animal feces and hairs, and there was a faint rotten smell in the room.

Han Li reckoned that it was destroyed like this by the people who came in looking for money, but the house was basically destroyed.

Han Li glanced at the surrounding situation, thinking that it is still necessary to use mental power to check it?
So he raised his legs and walked to the second floor, because those people were also going upstairs, so the stairs were not destroyed.

However, Han Li felt something was wrong before going up a few steps. This staircase gave people a very strong and firm feeling, and there was no sound of ordinary wooden stairs stepping up.

Han Li broke the guardrail next to him with a punch, and took a deep breath when he fixed his eyes. He has often picked up trees in the mountains for the past six months, and he can basically recognize many timbers at a glance.

I don't know who the owner of this house is, but the entire staircase, handrails and guardrails are all made of a whole piece of red pine wood.

When Han Li arrived on the second floor, he found that the situation here was similar to that on the first floor. The floor had been pried open, the walls were smashed into holes, and there were traces of cutting with sharp weapons on the doors and windows.

Seeing this, Han Li didn't bother to go up to the third floor. He stood at the stairs and stretched his mental strength to start checking.

The same is true on the third floor, but because there have been several holes on the roof, there are many water marks on the ground and walls that look worse than the first and second floors.

However, when Han Li checked the second floor with his mental strength, he suddenly found something different. He found a huge wardrobe in the Xiangyang room, which should be the master's bedroom.

The entire wardrobe occupies most of the wall in the room. Since the wardrobe is built into the wall, it has not suffered much damage. Only a few marks on the surface have been cut by knives and axes.

The wardrobe is already covered with dust, bird droppings, cobwebs, and even traces of birds making nests.

Han Li didn't care about this appearance at all at first, but when he was about to withdraw his mental power, he discovered something was wrong.

There are many wood boils on the wood of this wardrobe, and wood boils on the wood are easy to crack from here.

If this kind of situation happened in ordinary people's homes, they would usually put the place with wood boils in an unimportant place and make use of it.

But the owner of this house has to use a whole piece of red pine wood even for the stairs. How could he allow the wardrobe he touches every day to use this kind of flawed wood?
So Han Li carefully inspected the closet. The boils were very smooth, and the boils still haven't cracked after suffering for an unknown amount of time.

Moreover, these wood boils have textures such as fox heads and old people's heads, which look very beautiful.

Seeing this, Han Li's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly ran towards the closet room.

Take out a cloth and carefully wipe off the dust on it, and the true color of the wiped parts will be revealed immediately.

The wood of the wardrobe is very special. Its texture is very clear and the visual sense is excellent. These textures look very beautiful like flowing water, and it is as smooth as a baby's skin when you touch it.

Han Li leaned over and took a deep sniff. Apart from the stench left by birds, there was also a faint and pleasant woody scent.

Then he took two deep breaths in disbelief, and there was a hint of refreshing feeling in the fragrance of this wood.

Han Li's heart was suddenly ecstatic, and he almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

This is huanghuali, that's right, those wood boils are what people call the most precious "ghost face".

Han Li really didn't expect that someone used precious huanghuali to make a wardrobe that took up more than half of the wall.

The owner of this house must have been a wealthy family at the time, otherwise he would not have been able to afford huanghuali wood for furniture.

Even if putting the clothes in it can avoid insects and ants, and can also give the clothes a faint fragrance, but he actually used so many huanghuali to make such a large wardrobe.

Afterwards, Han Li looked at the ruined room, thinking that this is really because people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong.

There must have been a lot of treasures in this house at that time, and now they are all taken away by those greedy people.

Even so, they have to dig three feet to find the hidden treasure in the house, and every time the lock is locked, someone will pry it open and come in to take a look.

However, culture and vision are very important things at any time. No one of them recognizes such a treasure on the bright side.

But that's okay, the treasure they couldn't find will be theirs.

You must know that this is a precious huanghuali. There is a saying in later generations that "an inch of wood is an inch of gold".

Huanghua pear is also called Dalbergia Dalbergia, which itself is a very valuable traditional Chinese medicine.

Han Li recalled the records in "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicine", and "Branch of Traditional Chinese Medicine".

Grinding with water can treat various pains, and it can also be ground into powder for external application to relieve pain and stop bleeding. It is an excellent analgesic.

Aroma mainly treats diseases such as rheumatism, low back pain, vomiting blood, heart and stomach pain, and high blood pressure.

Huanghua pear also has the effects of relaxing tendons and activating blood circulation, lowering blood pressure and blood fat.

Pillows filled with chrysanthemum pear sawdust have the effect of relaxing tendons, activating blood circulation and improving sleep, especially suitable for the elderly.

If chrysanthemum pears are used to make beds, chairs and stools, it is most beneficial for sleep and rejuvenation.

Han Li thought happily that even if he only had this wardrobe made of huanghuali, it would be worth his trip.

After two years of stability, I can dismantle this wardrobe and make a bed for Han's father and Han mother. The remaining materials can be pulled into beads and strung together for each of my wife and sister-in-law. It can improve your body a little bit.

If you are richer, you can also make a bunch of skewers. After get off work, you can coil skewers, drink tea, squat with dogs, play with birds, and raise crickets.

Han Li was thinking about messy things in his mind, but his speed of action was not slow at all.

The decomposition ability directly moves the entire wardrobe from the wall to the decomposition space, and the original wall becomes a large recessed pit.

Han Li checked the place again and found that there was nothing missing, so he walked down from the second floor.

Then I checked the first floor and the yard in detail, but unfortunately there is no such thing as a darkroom here.

Looking at the withered and yellow weeds in the yard and this deserted three-story building, Han Li sighed for the impermanence of the world, repeatedly told himself to keep a low profile in his heart, and finally left here quickly with a sigh.

After coming out of here, Han Li first went to the medicinal material company, took out a letter of proof, and purchased some medicinal materials that he personally needed.

Han Li took these medicinal materials to the post office and checked them all back.

(Things on the bright side need a cutscene.)
However, when going through the formalities, Han Li found that this is indeed the post office in Ice City, and there are simply too many stamps and types.

Han Li had never collected stamps in his previous life, but he knew that some stamps from this period, as well as some early stamps, were very valuable in later generations.

However, Han Li didn't buy stamps for making money, but for favors. This thing is more effective than real money if it is used well.

Thinking of this, Han Li smiled and asked the little girl at the counter.

"Comrade, does your post office sell full-page stamps?"

Han Li originally thought that the service attitude was similar, but he didn't expect the little girl to ask quietly but very enthusiastically.

"Comrade, are you also a stamp collector?"

"Hehe, I just collect stamps, but I can't talk about any hobbies. I just have some spare money and want to save the present time. Do you think this kind of stamps can reflect our current life?"

The little girl nodded repeatedly at Han Li's words, and then said enthusiastically.

"There seems to be some postage stamps from previous years in the warehouse. Do you want it?"

"Yes, of course the more comprehensive the commemoration, the better. It would be even better if it was a full-page stamp."

"Then just wait a moment, I'll go to the warehouse and find it for you, and you can choose whatever you want when it comes over."

"That's a big thank you."

"Thank you, you're welcome. It's rare to meet a stamp collector. I also like to collect stamps. Unfortunately, the money in my pocket is not allowed."

Han Li watched the little girl go back. To be honest, he was a little dizzy by this enthusiastic attitude.

For a moment, it seemed that we had returned to the era of free economy, and every waiter greeted everyone with a smile.

At this time, Han Li's package had already been weighed and packed, and he paid the money and got the receipt, just in time for the little girl to come back.

Holding a green kraft paper bag in both hands, she went to the counter and carefully took out the stamps inside, and then placed them in a row for Han Li to choose.

Han Li didn't know whether the stamps were good or bad, but considering the money in his pocket, he chose some unusual special stamps.

For example: a set of 4 special stamps for "Xin'anjiang Hydropower Station", a set of 8 special stamps for "Chemical Industry", a set of 5 special stamps for "Mountain Climbing", and a set of 5 special stamps for "Women on the Industrial Front" Stamps, a set of 8 special stamps of "Children's Sports".

In addition, some stamps of model operas of this period were selected, of course, those stamps with inscriptions and quotations of great men are indispensable.

Han Li thanked this enthusiastic little girl, but when he finished paying and was about to leave, he was stopped by the other party.

"That comrade, everyone is a philatelist, can you leave a contact address, if there are any special stamps in the future, I can tell you, if it is convenient, please let me appreciate your collection."

Han Li is now an educated youth, he will not think that he is the hero in a romance novel, he can make the other party fall in love with his face, the other party may really like to collect stamps, and most people in this era are interested in this He was powerless, so he agreed very readily. It is also a good pastime to have an extra pen pal in this boring era.

"Of course there is no problem. Can we still exchange ideas on stamp collection with each other?"

The two left each other's contact addresses, and Han Li took a look and realized that the little girl was named Fu Weihong.

Surname Fu?
