Chapter 137 Library

When Junhao pushed the car into the yard, Zhang Qian was weighing Ermazi on the chair next to Huang, and the naughty children in the village were holding watermelons and gnawing hard.

"Xiao Hao is back, what do you buy when you go out to the street?" Ermazi immediately greeted him when he saw him.

"I didn't buy anything, so I just bought two packs of salt." Liu Junhao pointed to the basket in front of the bicycle. He really didn't buy anything when he went out on the street this time, so he bought the salt for Professor Zhao.

"You kid, you buy a few bags of salt when you go out on the street on such a hot day. You're really crazy." Ermazi looked at him in disbelief.

"Can you still lie to you? By the way, Uncle Guangxi, do you know this thing?" Liu Junhao just remembered the cicada sample that Zhao Guangming gave him, so he hurriedly took it out.

"Isn't this a cicada? Don't think I won't recognize the dog's pee moss on it." Ermazi glanced at it and threw the thing over again.

Liu Junhao suddenly felt a little worried. It seemed that he was not alone in his mistake.

"You really admit your mistake. Come and see what this is. Who has seen it?" He said, waved at the group of naughty kids.

As a result, they also stared at each other for a while, saying that they had never seen it before.

"This thing is called cicadas. It is purchased in the town and costs twenty yuan per pound. I will go to search and see if there is this thing in our village."

"What are you talking about?" Professor Zhao heard the sound next door. He knew that Liu Junhao was back and rushed over to get salt.

"Uncle Zhao. Look at what this is?" Liu Junhao thought that he was knowledgeable and might be able to recognize him.

As a result, Professor Zhao shook his head and said that he had seen this thing for the first time.

After the yard calmed down again, Liu Junhao told him about Zhao Guangming's begging for him.

"Really? OK." Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian's eyes lit up when she heard him say this, and she nodded immediately to agree.

"I said you're okay? You're so hot." Liu Junhao touched her head very much.

"You are so crazy. I will discuss it with Teacher Wang immediately and mobilize all the students in the school to find the cicada shell." Zhang Qian became more and more excited as she spoke.

"What are you going to do? You're really confused. You see that commission?" Liu Junhao was startled and hurriedly pulled her on a chair.

"What are you talking nonsense? Who wants his commission? I mean that it is feasible to collect the cicada shell. Now the school has funds to run a library!"

Now he finally understood that Zhang Qian wanted the students to sell cicada shells to save money to build a library.

The matter of building a library has always been a heart-wrenching problem between her and Teacher Wang. Since last year, she has reported to the teaching office several times, but the above always refuses that the funds are short.

However, in the spring, the teaching office allocated more than 100 books to Liujiagou, saying that it was donated by a unit in the city.

Zhang Qian was very happy at that time, but after receiving the book, she became depressed.

What kind of books are these? "Representatives of xx", "Theory of xx", etc., so that primary school students can read them? Can they understand them?

It is better to begging for others than asking for others. She and Teacher Wang discussed to support themselves and start the library.

However, this funding problem is still unsolvable, so it is natural for students to raise funds. Now the above has always emphasized that the following primary schools should not charge fees randomly.

Just as he was worried, Liu Junhao brought the door up.

Taking advantage of the summer vacation to hold a summer practice activity and ask them to buy cicada shells for two days, and then sell them for money to buy books. Isn’t this all the problems solved?

"Well... it doesn't seem good either. There are so many cicadas that are beaten. Most of the cicadas in the village are caught and eaten by people." Before Liu Junhao could speak, Zhang Qian frowned and muttered to herself.

"Then go to the mountain, there are so many cicada shells in the mountain."

Speaking of which, there are many cicada shells on the mountains around Liujiagou. If you walk around the nearby mountains, you can collect at least ten kilograms a day, which is only a few hundred yuan.

This calculation seems to be very beautiful, and you will know it is difficult when you really get to the mountain. Don’t look at the cicadas that are easy to catch when they first came out at night, but after that period, it becomes difficult.

In order to escape from natural enemies, they often either climb to the high treetops or hide behind leaves. Therefore, when collecting cicada shells, they not only have to bring embroidery rods, but also have to develop a pair of golden eyes. Sometimes, even if they bring embroidery rods, they can only sigh at the cicada shells, because they are too high and must climb onto the tree to hit.

Moreover, the cicada shell is particularly light after drying, and only one pound weighs more than a thousand. If a person is busy for half a day, he will get one pound of cicada shell at most.

"Yes," Zhang Qian heard what he said, immediately became excited again and ran to the next door to discuss with Teacher Wang.

Liu Junhao didn't want to dispel her enthusiasm, so he followed her.

In fact, he also thought it would be appropriate for students to get cicada shells, because they had time anyway. Moreover, those boys climb trees and climb trees smoothly, and playing cicada shells is definitely a good choice.

Professor Zhao and his wife were sitting there playing cards with their grandchildren. They played bamboo poles. This is the favorite game for children.

Its rule is very simple, that is, players all have the same number of cards, and then only one card is played at a time, and the other few people will take one card down. If you find that there is the same card as before, two

All the cards are yours.

Until other players have no cards in their hands, they will be the winner in the end and the game ends.

After listening to Zhang Qian's suggestions, Teacher Wang applauded repeatedly, saying that this would not only build the school's library, but also allow students to experience the joy of a bumper harvest.

After hearing this, Haoyu and Tongtong also yelled to participate, saying that they would wait until they saved money to buy a learning machine.

As a result, the more they talked, they became more and more excited, and they wanted to gather the students together immediately.

"There are not many cicadas now, and it's not too late to call the students in two days." Professor Zhao hurriedly spoke out and persuaded them to stop.

In just half a year, the embroidery forest became increasingly dense. The green embroidery leaves swayed in a swaying manner with the breeze, giving people a cool and pleasant feeling.

A little further away is the paradise of the white-headed little sparrows, and they chirp around on the bamboo branches.

Although Professor Zhao’s place is not as prosperous and colorful as his courtyard, it is better than quiet and gives people a different taste.

When Liu Junhao saw this embroidered forest, he felt moved. He remembered that when he was on the street, Zhao Guangming said that cicada flowers usually grow in bamboo forests, and I don’t know if there is any here.

"What are you looking for? Are there ingots on the ground?" Professor Zhao asked curiously when he stared at the bamboo pole.

"Of course I'm looking for something I've shown you just now, cicadas, it is said that this thing grows at the root of the embroidery rod." He stared at him and searched around.

"No, why haven't I seen it before?"

Everyone in the yard was mobilized and they all began to search carefully.

"Liu Junhao, do you think it's this thing?" Zhang Qian suddenly shouted.

Everyone surrounded him and saw a few fluffy white flowers blooming next to the root of one of the bamboo poles, which looked very similar to the thing Liu Junhao was holding.

"It should be right." Although it was not very certain, Professor Zhao still got a small shovel.

Just like digging ginseng, Liu Junhao carefully dug out the hard soil around him, and then picked up the block of soil.

I broke off the dirt on it, and a cicada covered with white hair was indeed revealed.

"It's really there?" Professor Zhao took it and sighed for a while. He really didn't expect that there would be this thing in his yard.

"I found one too!" At this time, Tongtong screamed in surprise again, and everyone rushed over again.

However, the little girl cicada flower had to dig by herself. She hugged the shovel and dug for a long time before digging out all the soil.

"Be careful, be careful, don't dig the root of the bamboo pole." Professor Zhao looked at the root of the bamboo pole that was shoveled by her with great distress.

This bamboo forest is not big, so everyone searched carefully and finally found three cicadas.

"It should be that the soil in the embroidered forest is too hard, and the cicadas cannot climb out, and they end up suffocating to death. Over time, fungi grow on it." Although it was the first time to come into contact with this thing, Professor Zhao quickly analyzed it very well.

"This thing is much heavier than cicada shells. It is estimated that forty or fifty can be one pound. Which piece of embroidery forest is on this mountain?" Zhang Qian weighed the cicada flowers in her hand, then turned her head to ask Liu Junhao.

"There is no bamboo forest on a mountain nearby. If you want to find a bamboo forest, you have to walk into the deep mountains. That's too far. The mountain road is not easy to walk, so it takes at least three hours to walk.

Liu Junhao has been to that bamboo forest several times since he was so old. He was taken by Old Man Liu when he was collecting herbs. Now he hasn't been to it for several years, but he still remembers it.

"This is a bit far, it takes one day to go back and forth." Teacher Wang said a little late.

"That's fine. It will take more than an hour for students from Daliang Village to go to school. What are you afraid of on this mountain road? I will follow you at that time." Zhang Qian was very impressed that she would never give up until she reached her goal.

"Then what they eat for lunch, won't let the students bring their own dry food?" Professor Zhao interrupted at this time.

Yes, this is not as good as going to school. There is no way to rush home for lunch, and it must be solved in the mountains.

"Don't worry, those students are not so fragile. It will definitely work if they have to bring steamed buns and pickles. When I was a student, my teacher asked us to go up the mountain to dig scutellaria baicalensis, which is how we did it," Liu Junhao said.

If you want to say that children are much happier nowadays, they were not only expensive when they went to elementary school, but also had a lot of various miscellaneous fees at the school.

In spring, the teaching office asks students to hand over dandelions. When the wheat is ripe, one student needs to hand over twenty kilograms of wheat. In autumn, the firewood is harvested, and sometimes students are organized to go up the mountain to dig Scutellaria baicalensis.

Huang is a perennial herb. The plants are more than half a person tall and bloom small blue-purple flowers. However, the flowers bloom quite strangely, only to one side.

Its rhizome is particularly thick, with the bottom of the old root and the middle is black. There is a saying in Liujiagou that scolds people with no conscience, "It is called Lao Scutellaria baicalensis to make his heart black."

This thing has a strong adaptability and can grow in barren mountains, slopes, woods, beaches and other places. In the past, there were many scutellaria baicalensis in Daqing Mountains, but in the past few years, its purchase price has risen all the way. Many people went up the mountain to dig, and finally dug the scutellaria baicalensis on the mountain to almost extinction.
