- "No way, so few?" Liu Junqi exclaimed. [Source of this book]
"What do you think¡¡"
After listening to Mr. Liu Wu¡¯s words, his dream of getting rich finally came to his senses.
In fact, Liu Junhao was a little surprised. The only time he came into contact with musk when he was a child was when he followed Old Man Liu to sell thirteen incense from house to house. At that time, Old Man Liu suffered from laryngitis, which was considered a minor illness in rural areas. Adults tolerated it and got over it, rarely seeing a doctor. The old man had a severe sore throat, so he asked Liu Junhao to follow him and shout about business at the top of his lungs.
When passing by Sanshu Village, I happened to be seen by an old Chinese medicine doctor. Seeing that Old Liu was in unbearable pain, the doctor immediately diagnosed him. In the end, the other party went home and took out a few pills, saying that they were mixed with musk and were very effective in reducing swelling and analgesia. Then, as he said, after taking a few pills, Old Liu's voice was completely healed.
This is his only experience with musk, and he has never seen the real thing. How could he know that a deer has so few offspring.
But when I think about it, I think it¡¯s normal. Things are more valuable when they are scarce, and anything in excess is worthless. If this musk were as plentiful as the cabbage in the field, no one would want it even for a dollar and a half a pound.
He didn¡¯t really expect to make big money with musk, he was just joking. If you really want to make a lot of money, your own space is the best cheating device, which is both hidden and safe. If you make good use of it, wealth will definitely come rolling in. However, this idea was just a dream when I was idle and bored, and I never thought about it. He really became a multi-millionaire, and he still couldn't sleep at night.
There is no way, I have a serious small farmer consciousness and I am a country bumpkin. He has no ambitions Now his life can be considered well-off, and he is watching over his wife and children. Just live an ordinary life, there is no need to have miscellaneous thoughts.
Now I¡¯m calling Liu Wuye over, it¡¯s more out of curiosity about Musk.
"Xiao Hao, call Wukong and Xiaopi. Let's go up the mountain to look for it. I haven't seen the deer in many years." Liu Junqi was more enthusiastic about this matter and kept urging him.
"This" Liu Junhao wanted to go, but he couldn't live without people at home, so he couldn't bring the boss and the eldest son to the mountain.
"I'll watch it for you at home," Mr. Zhao said, knowing his difficulty.
Just like that, Wukong Xiaopi led the way, and Liu Junhao and others followed behind and walked toward the back mountain.
It¡¯s not far from the mountain road. Wukong stopped, pointed at the grass and screamed. Apparently, the grain of musk was picked up in the grass.
Liu Wuye stretched out his hand and plucked in the grass a few times, pointed to a few hoof prints and said: "It looks like a deer has walked through it. Next, we will see Xiaopi's ability."
As Liu Junhao gave the order, Xiaopi immediately smelled the grass and quickly ran away. Just after running forward for a hundred meters, it suddenly stopped again and kept spinning next to a stone. The nose opens and closes. An impatient growl came from his mouth. Seeing that his master didn't respond, Xiaopi picked it up with his claws.
"Lost?" Mr. Wang didn't understand what he meant and asked confusedly.
Liu Junhao shook his head and replied: "Probably not." He was very confident in Xiaopi, and he must have discovered something. He crouched down. Carefully search for the areas where the macula has smelled.
Sure enough, a few small dark brown particles were soon discovered. Liu Junhao carefully held the particles in his hands. The fragrance penetrates the nostrils again.
"Good guy, Xiao Hao. If my guess is correct, you may really make a small fortune." Seeing these dark brown things, Mr. Liu carefully placed them in the bottle and tightened the cap.
"Fifth Master, what do you say?" Liu Junqi asked again.
"I heard from old people before that the deer not only eats grass, but also eats snakes and insects to store its fragrance. Usually in autumn and winter, the sachets are filled up and turned into fragrant pills. This is also the estrus season of the deer. .
When it passes the intersection, it will rub its belly on stones or tree bark to make the fragrant pellets roll down. This is equivalent to leaving a signal to the same kind. When the female deer smells the smell, she will follow it and rush over. Let's let Xiaopi search all the way. Maybe he can find the excrement and urine of the deer. Then it will be no problem to collect half a penny of musk. "The old man told Liu Junhao not to get excited just now, but now he said it with great passion.
"Wait a minute, old man, why does this have to do with feces and urine again?" Liu Junhao was a little confused.
"There used to be an old saying, 'The deer poops - the fragrance is soaring to the sky'. The aroma here is musk. Sometimes the deer rubs its belly too hard and will pick out the fragrant pills. The fragrance is very strong, so in order not to When other animals follow the scent, it will poop and urinate on it to cover it up. In the past, people who went up to the mountains to hunt liked this situation the most. They didn¡¯t even have to look for the deer, they just looked for it in the pile of excrement and urine.¡± Regarding this statement, Liu WuI also heard what the older generation said.
Xiaopi quickly verified the correctness of this statement. When he reached a three-way intersection, Huangpi suddenly stopped and smelled the tree trunk.
"This is deer dung." Liu Wuye found the dark brown patch under the tree as a treasure. He knelt down and looked at it for a few times, then broke off a small branch from the side and carefully raked it through the feces.
That focused expression and meticulous movements suddenly made people think they were digging for gold.
It is no different from gold mining, the price of musk is even higher.
Liu Wuye spent nearly half an hour picking through the deer feces before he raised his head and handed the bottle over: "Xiao Hao, just take it back and rinse it with water."
"Old man, I'd better leave this with you. I don't know how to prepare medicine, so it's useless to leave it with me." Liu Junhao shook his head and refused.
????????????????? Actually, he really looked at it strangely He didn't even notice the few dollars of musk.
"Take it, this is your Wukong's ability," Liu Wuye said without saying anything.
While the two were declining, Xiaopi suddenly shouted and rushed out like a sharp sword.
Then I saw a wild thing with straight ears, slender limbs, gray-brown fur, khaki spots on its back, skinny as a sheep, and deer-like appearance emerging from the grass not far away.
The animal originally came in this direction, but now that it saw a hound running out in front of it, it immediately turned around and ran wildly with all four hooves. As it ran, it kept blowing air from its nose, and even dozens of meters away, they could faintly hear the frightening sound of "pop, pop, pop".
"Zeer!" Master Liu Wu exclaimed.
Seeing that the yellow-spotted skin was about to knock the deer down a few more times, Liu Junhao hurriedly shouted: "Xiaopi, come back!" This kind of thing is very rare in the jungle now, and if you kill one, you will lose one.
Xiaopi didn¡¯t understand why the owner suddenly called to stop, but he still turned around and returned.
The gray-brown figure jumped in the grass and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"That's the deer, so small!" Liu Junqi stood on tiptoe and looked around. He couldn't find it before he had enough.
"Don't worry, the deer will risk its life rather than leave the mountain. Since it appears here, it will definitely come back in the future. You can see it." Liu Wuye began to tell again.
Like many wild animals, deer are territorial. They usually choose certain routes and places for activities, foraging, and resting. Once you get used to living in a certain area, you rarely leave voluntarily. Even if it is frightened, it will return to its original place soon.
After explaining a few words, Liu Wuye wanted to hand over the musk again.
"Fifth Master, just accept it. Xiao Hao is not short of that little money. If you really want to express your gratitude, I will give him a pair of migraine medicine in the future." Liu Junqi was made impatient by the two of them and said. .
As soon as he said that, Liu Wuye didn't give in anymore, nodded and put away the bottle.
After watching the fun, Liu Junhao thought about calling Wang Junfeng from the Lingya Cat Lovers Association when he returned home and told him about the deer in Liujiagou.
Some time ago, they had gone into the mountain to take away the far-infrared camera. They said they would conduct data analysis and comparison when they went back. It was estimated that it would take a month or two to get the results.
"Wait a minute." As soon as they reached the mountain stream, Liu Junqi suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" His voice was so sudden that Mr. Wang was startled.
"What do you see there?" He pointed to the mountain stream not far ahead.
"Wild bees, water-gathering bees, you want to find a hive?" Liu Junhao was the first to understand when he saw swarms of bees drinking water by the mountain stream. The man in front of me is an expert at collecting wild honey. At this time of year, he goes up to the mountains to harvest honey.
¡°Well, follow them, we can harvest some honey later, it won¡¯t be in vain.¡± Liu Junqi paid close attention to the bees hovering above the mountain stream.
"I'm afraid this won't be easy. Who knows how far away their nest is? Bees usually fly very far." Mr. Wang asked.
"Haha, those worker bees you are talking about are honey bees. Most water collecting bees are old bees and generally do not fly too far. This hive must be nearby." In the past two years, Liu Junqi has been collecting honey in the mountains. He has concluded a lot. experience,
"Did you see that the water-collecting bees fly in circles when they descend and take off? If they fly in a counter-clockwise circle when they come to collect water, and in a clockwise circle when they return, it means that the hive is on the left side of the mountain. If the circle direction is the same as this On the contrary, the beehive is usually on the right side of the mountain. In addition, looking at the number of laps, one lap is about one kilometer, and two laps is two kilometers."
Just like that, several people changed directions and followed the water-gathering bees.
Bees also build nests regularly, mostly in sunny and open areas. Especially the big trees with hollow holes at the edge of the forest.?Their preferred nesting site. In addition, there are gaps with many stones, which can provide shelter from wind and rain, or on river embankments, at the edges of walls, or in abandoned houses.
People in Liujiagou know this knowledge to some extent. In the early years, collecting wild honey was a routine activity for villagers every year. In late autumn and early winter, when the honey in the hive is the most fragrant, people in the village will go into the mountains in groups of three or five to look for the hive.
When you first find the hive, you light a wormwood torch directly upwind to smoke it, and then use a wooden stick to knock the hive. When the nest is threatened, the bees will rush out desperately, only to be dizzy by the thick smoke and fall to the ground one after another. This method was simple and crude, and was later abandoned. Nowadays, most people wear raincoats and trousers, covering their whole body tightly, and go directly to harvest honey. (To be continued)
