Five hundred and twentieth eight chapters a little gain
. "No way, so few?" Liu Junqi screamed in surprise. [Source of this book]
"What do you think..."
After listening to Master Liu Wu's talk, his dream of getting rich was finally awake.
In fact, Liu Junhao was also a little surprised. The only time he came into contact with musk when he was a child was to follow Old Man Liu to visit his villages and sell Thirteen Scents. At that time, Old Man Liu suffered from laryngitis, which was a minor illness in the countryside. Adults endured it and rarely went to see a doctor. The old man had a severe sore throat, so he let Liu Junhao follow him and shouted at the business.
When I passed by Sankeshu Village, an old Chinese doctor happened to be seen by an old Chinese doctor. Seeing that Old Man Liu was in unbearable pain, he immediately diagnosed him. Finally, the other party went home and took out a few pills, saying that he had mixed it with musk, which was very effective in reducing swelling and analgesic. Then, as he said, after taking a few pills, Old Man Liu's throat completely healed.
This was his only experience in contact with musk. He had not seen the real thing, but he did not know that a deer produced so little.
But when you think about it, you feel that things are expensive. Nothing is worth more. If there are too many musks, it is probably not worth it. If this musk is as much like the cabbage in the field, it is estimated that no one can ask for a dollar or half a pound.
He didn't really expect to make a lot of money with musk. He was just a joke. If he really wanted to make a lot of money, his space was the best cheater, which was hidden and safe. If he made good use of it, wealth would definitely come. However, this idea was just a dream when he was bored, and he never thought about realizing it. He really became a millionaire, and he couldn't sleep at night.
There is no way, I have a serious awareness of small farmers and belong to the rustic type. I have no ambitions... Now my life is already in a well-off life, and I just need to live a simple life, and there is no need to have mixed thoughts.
Now I call Mr. Liu Wu to come over, I am more curious about Musk.
"Xiaohao, call Wukong and Xiaopi. Let's go up the mountain to find it. I haven't seen a deer for many years." Liu Junqi was even more enthusiastic about this and kept urging him.
"This..." Liu Junhao wanted to go, but his family could not do without people at all, and he could not bring the old and old to the mountain as well.
"I'll show you at home." Mr. Zhao knew his difficulties and spoke.
In this way, Wukong Xiaopi led the way in front, and Liu Junhao and others followed behind and walked towards the back mountain.
Not far from the mountain road, Wukong stopped and pointed at the grass and squeaked. Obviously, the musk was picked up in the grass.
Master Liu Wu reached out and pulled it in the grass a few times, pointed to several hoof prints and said, "It looks like a deer passing by. Next, it depends on Xiaopi's ability."
As Liu Junhao gave the order, Xiaopi immediately smelled in the grass and quickly took a step forward. As soon as he ran forward hundreds of meters, it suddenly stopped again and kept spinning beside a stone. His nose opened and closed, and he let out an impatient low growl. Seeing that the owner did not respond, Xiaopi actually pulled it up with his claws.
"Is it lost?" Mr. Wang asked in confusion.
Liu Junhao shook his head and replied: "It shouldn't be." He was very confident in Xiaopi, and must have discovered something. He squatted down and carefully searched for the place where the macular skin had smelled.
Sure enough, a few small dark brown particles were soon found. Liu Junhao carefully pinched the particles in his hands. The fragrance penetrated into his nostrils again.
"Good guy, Xiao Hao. If I guessed right, you really might have to make a fortune." Seeing these dark brown things, Master Liu Wu carefully placed them in the bottle and then tightened the cap.
"Fifth Master, what do you mean?" Liu Junqi asked again.
"I heard from the old people that the deer not only eats herbs, but also eats snakes and insects to store fragrance. Usually, the sachets are filled in the autumn and winter and turn into fragrant pills. This is also the season for the deer to estrus.
When it passes the intersection, it will rub its belly against the stone or bark, and let the fragrant balls roll down. This is equivalent to leaving a signal for the same kind. When the female deer smells the smell, it will follow. Let Xiaopi search all the way, and maybe you can find the feces and urine that can be found. At that time, it will be fine to pick a half-month musk." The old man told Liu Junhao not to be excited just now, but now he is talking passionately.
"Wait, old man, why is this related to shit and urine again?" Liu Junhao was a little confused when he heard it.
"There was an old saying before, "Dicks shit out - the fragrance is soaring to the sky". The aroma here is musk. Sometimes the deer rubs its belly with too much force, which will remove the fragrance balls. This smell is very strong. In order to prevent other animals from following the smell, it will shit out and cover it up. In the past, people who hunted up the mountain liked to encounter this situation the most, and they didn't even have to look for deer, just look for it in the pile of shit and urine." Regarding this statement, Mr. Liu Wu also heard from the older generation.
Xiaopi quickly verified the correctness of this statement. When he walked to a fork in the road, the macular skin suddenly stopped and sniffed at the tree trunk.
"This is the deer manure." Master Liu Wu was as if he had a treasure under the dark brown area under the tree. He squatted down and looked at it for a few times, then broke a small branch from the side and carefully cut it into the feces.
That focused expression and meticulous movement... suddenly made people think they were hunting for gold.
It is no different from Taojin, and the price of musk is even higher.
Mr. Liu Wu picked and chose the deer feces. It took nearly half an hour before he raised his head and handed the bottle over: "Xiaohao, just take it back and rinse it with water for a little."
"Old man, this thing is still left with you. I don't know how to dispense medicine, so it's useless to put it in my place." Liu Junhao shook his head and refused to drop it.
In fact, he really saw it... the few coins of Musk have not been seen in his eyes.
"Hold it, this is your Wukong's ability," said Mr. Liu Wu.
The two of them were refusing, but Xiaopi suddenly screamed and rushed out like a sharp sword.
Then I saw a wild thing that was as straight as the grass not far away, with slender limbs, gray-brown fur, yellowish spots on the back, thin as a sheep, and a wild thing that looked like a deer.
The animal was originally coming in this direction, but now when she saw a hunting dog rushing out of the front, she turned around and ran away with four hooves. While running, its nose kept spitting, and dozens of meters away, they could faintly hear the terrified sound of "克,克".
"Dirty!" Master Liu Wu exclaimed in surprise.
Seeing that the yellow skin was rushing over, he was about to knock down the deer. Liu Junhao hurriedly shouted: "Xiao Pi, come back!" Now there are very few things in the jungle, kill one less.
Xiaopi didn't understand why the owner suddenly called for a stop, but she still turned around and returned honestly.
The gray-brown figure jumped in the grass and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"That's the deer, so small!" Liu Junqi looked around on tiptoe. He couldn't find it before he could see it.
"Don't worry, the deer is willing to sacrifice her life and never give up the mountain. Since it appears here, it will definitely come back in the future. You can see it." Master Liu Wu said again.
Like many wild animals, deer also has a sense of territory. They usually choose certain routes and places to exercise, forage, and rest. If they are used to living in a certain area, they rarely leave on their own initiative. Even if they are frightened, they will return to their original place soon.
After explaining a few words, Master Liu Wu wanted to hand over Musk again.
"Fifth Master, then accept it. Xiaohao is not short of that little money. If you really want to express your feelings, you can give him a pair of tilted head wind medicine in the future." Liu Junqi was impatient by the two of them and spoke.
As soon as he said that, Master Liu Wu did not continue to let him go, nodded and put away the bottle.
After watching the fun, Liu Junhao thought about it and called Wang Junfeng from the Lingya Cat Animal Enthusiasts Association after he got home and told him the news that there were deer in Liujiagou.
Some time ago, they had already entered the mountain to take away the far-infrared camera, saying that they would go back and do data analysis and comparison, and it would probably take one or two months to find the results.
"Wait" As soon as he walked to the mountain stream, Liu Junqi suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" His voice was abrupt, which scared Mr. Wang.
"What do you think there is?" He pointed at the mountain stream not far ahead.
"Wild bees, water-picking bees, do you want to find a beehive?" Seeing the groups of bees drinking water by the mountain stream, Liu Junhao took the lead in understanding. The man in front of him is a good idea to pick wild honey, and he has to go up the mountain to cut honey every year at this time of year.
"Well, keep up with them, let's wait and cut some honey, it won't be in vain." Liu Junqi paid close attention to the bees hovering on the mountain stream.
"This is probably not easy. Who knows how far their nests are? Bees usually fly far away." Mr. Wang asked.
"Haha, what you are talking about is the worker bee collecting honey. Most of the water bee collecting bees are old bees and generally do not fly too far. The beehive must be nearby." In the past two years, Liu Junqi has summarized a lot of experiences.
"See, when the water-collecting bees descend and take off, they fly in circles. If they fly in circles counterclockwise when they go back and circle clockwise, it means that the beehive is on the left side of the mountain. If the direction of the circle is opposite to this, the beehive is generally on the right side of the mountain. In addition, looking at the number of circles, one circle is about one kilometer, and two circles are two kilometers."
In this way, several people changed directions and followed the water-picking bees.
Bees have regular nests, most of which are in open areas facing the sun. Especially big trees with hollow holes along the edge of the forest are their preferred places for nesting. In addition, there are gaps with more stones, which can shelter from wind and rain, either on river embankments, on walls, or in abandoned houses.
People in Liujiagou know a little about this knowledge. In the early years, picking wild honey was what villagers had to do every year as usual. In late autumn and early winter, it was the time when the honeycomb was the most and most fragrant. The villagers would come into the mountains with wooden barrels in a group, looking for the honeycomb.
At first, I found the beehive and directly lit an artemisia torch at the upper air outlet to smoke it, and then knocked it with a wooden stick. When the old nest is threatened, the bees will rush out desperately, but they will be dizzy by the thick smoke and fall to the ground one after another. This method is simple and crude, and later abandoned by people. Now most of them wear raincoats and rain pants, cover their whole body tightly, and go forward to cut honey directly.
