Chapter 23: Buy glue in the northern market, buy dogs in the southern market
Let's also say that Zhao Zhen was urged by Zhao Jin to go on a blind date. Although Zhao Zhen dealt with it by completing his career and becoming a teacher, he still dared to wait longer. If the female relatives at home heard about it, I'm afraid they would have to urge me again.
In addition, the cattle dogs, shepherd dogs, bow strings, glue, wine, temple design drawings and other items needed by Zhao Zhenji to hang up in the fantasy world all need to be purchased one by one. The most important thing in the main world at the moment is to meet with Gao Hu, the chief of the pavilion, and help complete the project. The proofreading of the fish scale book has brought a final conclusion to the issue of the village boundaries of Bailiu Village.
Judging from the meaning behind Gao Feng’s words, it’s only in these few days.
While I was in the city today, I bought what I needed and went back to Bailiu Village to wait for Gao Hu, the head of the pavilion. It also saves you the trouble of hanging around in front of your parents' eyes and mentioning the blind date again.
Zhao Zhen said goodbye to his parents and rode straight to Beishi. He left the Hailiu horse there and started wandering around the livestock area. But there were all pigs, horses, cows, sheep, camels, black donkeys, chickens, ducks, and geese, but not a single dog.
Zhao Zhen had to ask the businessman who bought the sheep back to find out clearly that the dog market was not here. Because he was afraid that the barking of the dog would startle the livestock, the dog was only bought and sold in the Nan market.
Zhao Zhen thanked the merchant and went to the department store area first. However, the bowstring and glue were not available for purchase here. Instead, he had to go to the military preparation area to buy the two items. The price is not high, but it is not easy to buy. This item belongs to military equipment, and Zhao Zhenliang bought it only after he showed his true identity.
I bought a total of 600 bow strings, kilograms of cow glue, and more than ten kilograms of fish bladder glue.
Each beef backbone has one strip of sinew and weighs about thirty taels. Kill it, dry it in the sun, soak it in water, and break it into pieces like ramie threads. There is no silk in the north, and the bow strings are all tied together with this thing. The Chinese use it to protect the bow stem and use it as a cotton slingshot. "Tiangong opens things"
There are two types of bowstrings. One type is made of animal sinews, mostly beef tendons, horse hair, and grapevines. The other type is woven from silk, cotton thread, and hemp rope. I bought 300 strings of each type, costing 10 strings. The price of these two types of bowstrings is almost the same. They are both large quantities and cheap. Because bowstrings are consumables, rapid production and equipment for the army is the first condition.
Zhao Zhen thought that he still had two mutated snake bones in his hand, so he bought two more fine and exquisite animal sinew bow strings.
"Zhou Li Kao Gong Ji" records: Wherever the tendons are, if they are small and simple, they will be long, if they are large and lustrous, if they are small and simple, they will be long. If it is knotted and lustrous, then it is a beast and must be cut. If it is used as a bow, it is not different from its beast, and its tendons will be worn out. Carefully selected alienated animal tendons have excellent toughness, and two strings cost 30 strings.
Six kinds of glue are commonly used in making bows: deer glue, horse glue, ox glue, rat glue, fish bladder glue, and rhinoceros glue. Deer glue is green and white, horse glue is red and white, cattle glue is fire red, rat glue is black, fish glue is bait, and rhinoceros glue is yellow. Deer glue and rhinoceros glue are basically not found in Gaoguo, but horse glue, cow glue, rat glue, and fish bladder glue are common, and fish bladder glue is the most expensive. More than 20 kilograms of glue cost a total of strings.
Beef glue is cheap, easy to make and does not depend on time. Cut the cowhide into small pieces, soak in water until soft, add water and slowly boil over low heat, boil for three days to get clear juice, add rice wine to collect the glue after the juice is reduced. Fish bladder glue is expensive, so marine fish bladders are the best when choosing fish, and large yellow croaker swim bladders are the best. Glue production only occurs every year after frost and before freezing. First, soak, chop, and steam. The additional step of breaking the glue is also the most time-consuming. Since ancient times, it has been said: A good man cannot break three taels of swim bladder in a day, and this is what it means. The glue squeezed out can be used immediately. The remaining glue will solidify after cooling and can be kept for later use. It needs to be soaked and boiled again when used. Although the method of boiling glue is spread in various places, the process is too complicated and labor-intensive. Thirty kilograms of cow glue only costs 5 guan, while more than ten kilograms of fish bladder glue is worth guan.
Bought 50 jars of soju in the department store area. Zhao Zhen didn't know how to obtain the temple design drawings. After much thought, he rode a horse to the county school, presented a gift, and asked Hu Jiaoyu to introduce him to Gong Zheng, the official of the workshop. He exchanged ten taels of silver for a set of existing ones in Gong Zheng's hands. Temple drawings. For the sake of Hu Jiaoyu, Gong Zheng gave some advice on the terrain provided by Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen wrote them down one by one. After Zhao Zhen got the drawings, he thanked them both. After leaving the county government office, Hu Jiao said: "Zhao Erlang, the former talked to you about determining the household registration, has it been completed?"
"Islamic edict, some officials from the government office have been to Zhuangzi two days ago. Now my village is called Bailiu Village, which belongs to Lvliu Township. I have been appointed as the head of the village. I would like to thank you for the advice." Yes. A lot of people came to buy Zhuangzi in the past few days, and the prices were very high."
"Very good, very good. Now, many students of your generation have taken advantage of this opportunity and have entered public offices. In this way, the starting point is always higher than others." Hu Jiaoyu said with a smile. He also instructed: "This is the ceremony of completing my apprenticeship. The king has taken out many fantasy world scrolls from the treasury. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. As the leader, you must be at the forefront. Pick the one that suits you and use it well." , it must be a big helping hand.”
When Zhao Zhen saw Hu Jiaoyu mentioning this matter again and again, he couldn't help but pay more attention to it. He thanked him again and again for his advice and left.
Zhao Zhen carried the drawings and braved the scorching sun to ride to the last place of this purchase - Nanshi. Nanshi is not a dog market. Besides dogs, there are also many animals that are not afraid of barking dogs.
Along the way, we saw dozens of dogs, large and small, the most common ones being thin dogs, Taihang dogs, tabby dogs, Tibetan mastiffs, Mongolian mastiffs, eagle dogs, Chinese Fu dogs, Mongolian pasture shepherd dogs, black dragon dogs, XZ shepherd dogs, Chinese Mountain Dog, Oroqen Hound, Kunma Dog, Yunnan Ba Dog, Kunming Dog, Xiasi Hound, Liangshan Hound, Taicang Hound...
Buying a dog was also Zhao Zhen’s first experience. I really didn’t know how to choose, so I had to find a dentist and tell my requirements. The fang man led Zhao Zhen straight to a yard, pointed to the cage and said: "This is a Liangshan thin dog. The long hair is called Fanzi, and the short hair is called Slider. It comes in three colors: black, white, and yellow, with pure black and bright colors. The one with the best quality. The black dog with four white hooves is commonly known as "flying on the snow". It is the top grade of Liangshan fine dog. This family has one. There is a jingle single praise of Liangshan fine dog: pink-skinned ears, cucumber mouth. Shrimp waist, mule Horse legs. Rabbit hooves, scorpion tail. This dog is best at hunting hares.”
After Zhao Zhen looked at it, he immediately decided on two adult dogs and four puppies, except those born from the same litter. He took out the remaining three puppies from different dog cages and flew them five times on the snow. The remaining five dogs totaled one. . After settling the money, Zhao Zhen asked the store to install it and hired an ox cart to load it outside.
After seeing this place, Yaren and Zhao Zhen spent three dollars to buy ten more lawn collies, all of which were mature, well-trained adult dogs. After everything was installed, Zhao Zhen calculated the commission with Yaren and the settlement was clear.
While walking on the road, Yaren pointed to a yard and said to Zhao Zhen: "Here is a famous dog in the world. It is the only place in Chengwu County that sells it." Zhao Zhen asked: "How does it compare to flying on the snow?"
Yaren said: "They are not the same kind. Flying on the snow is also a different species, and there is not one in a hundred. Han Zilu is the fastest dog in the world; Dongguo Chu is the cunning rabbit in the sea. Han Zilu chases Dongguo Chu and surrounds the mountain. Those who climb mountains are three, and those who climb mountains are five; the rabbit is in front, and the dog is behind. All Han Lu are good at running, that's all."
After Zhao Zhen heard this, he dismounted and said, "Let's take a look."
After letting the bullock cart wait for a while, the two of them entered the shop, and they were indeed handsome. Zhao Zhen paid 5 more coins and bought five more.
