Power to the government and the public: Qian engaged in business in ancient times

Chapter 34 Sugar Cane
"Indigestion is easy to cause abdominal distension. Going to the toilet... no, it's more difficult to get out." Wen Qian almost said to go to the toilet again.

Huang Weibao suddenly realized: "That is to say, this bagasse can actually be eaten!"

The corners of Wen Qian's eyes twitched, and she said helplessly, "You can eat it if you say you can, but I won't eat it anyway."

After finishing speaking, she continued to nibble on the sugarcane in her hand, but she didn't expect that the wild sugarcane was quite sweet, and it grew gratifyingly, no different from the ones planted.

Looking up at the unreachable Bashan Mountain, there is a vague sense of mystery.

Huang Weibao quickly finished eating the sugar cane in his hand, Wei Wei was sorry that Wen Qian spit out the bagasse all over the place, but he thought that there would be countless sugar cane in the future, so he looked at him expectantly: "Brother, how do we cut this sugar cane so that it can be conveniently transported?" , and won’t affect planting?”

Hearing this, Wen Qian didn't expect Huang Weibao to be such a pragmatic person. He spat out the last mouthful of bagasse and said, "Choose the sugarcane with light yellow leaves and cut it off from the root."

As he said that, he picked up the machete and chose a thick and big sugar cane to chop, and threw it on the grass beside him.

The whole sugarcane is almost four meters long, which is suitable for cultivation of cane buds.

Seeing Huang Weibao, he also picked among the sugarcane forests.

Wen Qian and Huang Weibao, who were chopping sugar cane, didn't notice that this scene fell into the eyes of the big tiger behind a big tree.

The Tiger King looked at the two men who were cutting trees (sugar cane), and knew that one of them was the Wen family that the master told him to take care of. Should the other man be driven down the mountain?

After hesitating for a moment, it turned and ran towards the other side of the mountain.

If I can't make up my mind, I'd better go back and ask the master!
Thinking of the last time a woman picking herbs came to pull up the mountain, she didn't smell the smell of the Wen family on her, so it obeyed the master's arrangement and drove down the mountain.

Unexpectedly, that woman was so thoughtful that she not only fooled it, but also followed it far away and found the canyon where the owner lived, causing it to be hungry for a whole day.

Whatever you say this time, you have to get things done!
Wen Qian looked at the pile of sugarcane sticks on the grass, and shouted to Huang Weibao in the sugarcane forest: "Brother Huang, don't cut it down, that's enough."

Huang Weibao dragged a piece of sugar cane in one hand, looked at the sugar cane sticks piled up in front of him, and showed a trace of doubt: "Is this enough?"

He wants every household in Liujiawan to plant sugar cane, which doesn't seem like much!

"Enough." Wen Qian nodded affirmatively, took out the rice paper in her arms and handed it to Huang Weibao: "Brother Huang, here are detailed methods of planting sugarcane and solutions to various emergencies. I also included pictures. You should be able to understand."

"Okay." Huang Weibao took the rice paper, put it in his arms, and saluted respectfully: "From now on, I, Huang Weibao, will obey the orders of the eldest brother, and you can just call me Awei from now on."

Wen Qian frowned, and remained silent for a while, "Huang Weibao, have you thought it through?"

The word obedience means inferior to others.

Huang Weibao said: "I have made up my mind."

Wen Qian's black eyes turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Can you be loyal?"

Huang Weibao knelt down directly, unwavering: "Ah Wei must be so heartbroken that he only recognizes the elder brother as the master."

"Okay." Wen Qian smiled lightly, and helped Huang Weibao up with his own hands: "Ah Wei, we have to carry this sugarcane down the mountain as soon as possible, I'm afraid my big brother is already waiting at the foot of the mountain."

Huang Weibao said: "Yes."

So Wen Qian was in charge of tying the sugarcane into a small bundle with straw vines, and Huang Weibao carried it down the mountain.

It's just because Wen Qian is a frail scholar in the eyes of outsiders, and of course Huang Weibao, who is highly skilled in martial arts, must do physical work such as carrying sugarcane.

At the foot of the mountain, there was an open carriage parked on a flat hill.

Sitting on the side of the car was the idle Wen Liang and the thieves McDull.

"Brother Wen, you said that you drove the carriage down here to pick up that talented cousin of yours? He is a weak scholar who dares to go up the mountain alone?" McDull suspected that Wen Liang was joking.

"What's wrong with going to Bashan, I've spent a few nights on Bashan, I'm still alive and kicking!" Wen Liang pursed his mouth disapprovingly, with a look of disdain.

I feel that there are man-eating lynxes on this mountain, all of which are lies woven by the villagers to scare children.

He is not a child, and he tried his own risk, and concluded that there is no Bobcat.

"What! Brother Wen, you, you actually went to Mount Bashan, when did it happen? Why didn't I know!" McDull looked at Wen Liang in surprise, suspecting that he had an auditory hallucination.

"Ten or so days have passed. In short, there is nothing left on the mountain except for countless trees. The only valuable thing may be herbal medicine! But although there are many things, I don't know much about them. It all depends on Gan Make a mark to identify whether it is a herbal medicine." Wen Liang looked at the towering Bashan Mountain, feeling a little hairy in his heart.

The reason why he told McDull this was to drag this little brother to go up the mountain with him to collect herbs.

"Oh, your talented cousin also taught you how to know herbs? I heard that the Baishi Pharmacy in the town collects herbs, both dry and wet, and they can sell for a lot of money!" McDull was very excited, picking herbs is more difficult haha Farming makes a lot more money.

How about I ask Brother Wen to take me to pick herbs together!
"I don't know." Wen Liang shook his head pretending not to care, and said with a big face: "You also know that my family has no worries about food and clothing, so I don't want to work hard to gather herbs!"

"Ah? Such an easy opportunity to earn a lot of money, you don't want to do it? You're going too far!" McDull looked at Wen Liang enviously, and his words had a strong sour taste.

Wen Liang patted his face: "What? Are you interested, kid?"

McDull smiled flatteringly: "I want to earn this money, but unfortunately I don't know herbs."

Seeing that McDull took the bait, Wen Liang didn't hesitate, and answered immediately: "You can't collect many herbs by yourself, including Humen and Duobao, I will take you to Bashan Mountain, so that more people can collect more herbs and more herbs. You can talk nonsense together every day!"

After you have picked the herbs, you should honor some of them to me, and I will pay for the rest, and then take them to Cousin Agan in exchange for more benefits.

This method is really wonderful!
The more she thought about the more beautiful Wen Liang, her whole body trembled slightly with excitement.

"Brother Wen, what's wrong with you?" McDull looked at Wen Liang, whose face was flushed and slightly trembling, with a hint of worry on his face.

I haven't heard that someone in the Wen family had epilepsy?

Why is brother Wen who speaks so well, suddenly... What should I do?
"What can I do? I'm fine!" Wen Liang saw McDull's expression clearly, knew that he had misunderstood, and immediately returned to normal, and said displeasedly: "I taught Humen and Duobao to learn to pick herbs with you. disagree?"

McDull rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "As long as Brother Wen is not too tired, I will listen to you."

No one has ever gone up this mountain. Although Wen Liang said that the mountain is very safe, there are two more people, and even if there is danger, more people can support the tank.

Just this early in the morning, if the two idiots Humen and Duobao hadn't stopped the eldest son and the second son, the last son would be chasing after me, and I might not be able to escape!
"McDull, you're the best buddy with me, why don't I ask your second-in-command's opinion first!" How can Wen Liang not know the little Jiujiu in McDull's heart, but he can talk, and he feels very comfortable when he hears it. Don't forget to win over people's hearts.

"Brother Wen, you, you think of me as a buddy!" McDull looked at Wen Liang in surprise, with joy or surprise on his face, and a little gratitude.

"That's right, look at the white horse under us, I thought of you first, now I know the brotherhood you have in my heart!" Wen Liang raised his eyebrows, and looked at McDull confidently.

Anyway, what I said is true, as for brotherhood, there is no need to study it carefully.

Believe it or not...

"Big brother, come and help me put the sugar cane on the carriage!"

"Who? Who's calling me!" Wen Liang heard someone calling him, and quickly raised his head to look behind him.

I saw Huang Weibao carrying two bundles of firewood that looked like bamboo on each shoulder, walking closer and closer to the carriage.

"Huang Weibao, you don't know how to throw the firewood on the car, it's simple and smooth."

While talking, Wen Liang got out of the carriage, walked up to Huang Weibao, picked up a bundle of sugarcane with both hands and was about to throw it away.

Huang Weibao pressed Wen Liang's hand, and explained: "Don't throw it, it's not a stick, it's a sugar cane found by cousin Agan, if you throw it so high, it will break!"

"Sugar cane?" Wen Liang was forced to stop, looked at the sugar cane in his hand with disdain, and asked suspiciously: "It's just like a bamboo stick, and it's as durable as you said?"
