Chapter 336: Yellow, heavy, natural, this is too precious!
When Li Long was ready to leave after drinking milk tea, Harimu started to pack things for him.
He was like a butler in the Jia mansion, taking stock of the things he was going to bring back this time.
The heaviest were seven pieces of jasper seed material, the big ones were the size of a football, the small ones were the size of a fist, the texture was very good, five of the seven pieces were the kind without black spots, looking very beautiful.
The most space-consuming were six deer antlers, at least with four branches, the largest one had eight branches, Li Long didn't know how these deer antlers grew so big.
The most comfortable was a thick stack of skins. Li Long now also has some knowledge, deer skin, roe deer skin, wild goat skin all have.
There are also two pairs of northern mountain goat horns, one is relatively fresh, with a little dry meat on the skull, one is old, and the skull is relatively complete.
These two northern mountain goat horns have more than sixteen sections, old sheep.
A bag of snow lotus flowers, the kind that is dried. In this regard, Li Long admired these herdsmen very much, they only take flowers, and will not dig the snow lotus away with roots.
Two sections of deer velvet, these are not long, dry, the combined weight is about three kilograms.
Just these things have filled the horse cart, although not heavy, but looking very much.
When Harimu packed the cart, he specifically left a seat for Li Long.
Finally, he took out a small piece of something and handed it to Li Long:
"We, found such things by the river in the mountains, there are big ones and small ones. I kept the big ones, prepared to make something for Yangganzi, this one, gave it to you."
Li Long was startled when he saw that thing, and hurriedly waved his hand:
"Can't want, can't want, you have to keep this, I, later go pick it up myself!"
"Take it!" Harimu directly stuffed it into Li Long's hand, "Without you, Nasen wouldn't have it, don't be polite with me.
By the way, when you come again this time, bring more medicine, the medicine brought last time... you don't know, it really saved people, there was a heavy rain in the mountains, it rained for half a day, several old people caught a cold and fever, if it weren't for the medicine you brought, several old people might not have survived!"
Li Long's attention was attracted, and when he reacted, that thing had already entered his hand.
That was a heavy, golden-yellow thing.
Natural gold nugget!
Although the block is small, one palm can hold it, and it cannot be called a dog-head gold, but it is very heavy, feeling that even if it is not one kilogram, at least it is seven or eight hundred grams.
Even if the gold price at this time is far less than later generations, this thing is also worth a lot!
Just gave it to himself?
"We looked for that place again, and didn't find it later. However, I believe there must be some in this mountain." Harimu said with a smile, "You, I, luck is very good, there will definitely be more later!"
Li Long nodded, this is the truth.
After all, Mahe is known as the gold version of jade bottom, which means the riverbed contains gold, and the river bottom has jade. During the Qing Dynasty, gold mines were opened here, so it is no problem to find natural gold nuggets in the upper reaches and branches.
It just depends on luck.
Harimu and Nasen, Sasken helped Li Long push the horse cart across the ditch, and after saying goodbye to him, returned to the winter nest, and Li Long also walked back happily pulling the horse.
People say it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down the mountain when climbing, but for this kind of horse cart, it is naturally easy to go down the mountain and difficult to go up the mountain.
A cart track was pressed on the thick snow when going up the mountain, the old horse knows the way, when returning, after leaving the mountain pass, it continued to walk down along this road, with inertia, it would be much faster when returning, Li Long felt seventy-six walked easily, so he got on the horse cart, and he could also relax.
After passing the Qingshuihe residential area, the road became easier to walk, but Li Long didn't close his eyes, walking along the way, occasionally glancing at the road, and then continued to close his eyes and lean on the skin on the frozen meat to doze off.
He began to calculate the things to be purchased when returning. Coarse salt, buy four more bags, 160 kilograms.
Granulated sugar must buy at least twenty bags, brick tea thirty bags, radio—buy five first. Batteries must be bought by the box, twenty boxes... no, thirty boxes.
Since Harimu said so, bring twenty bottles of white wine, this thing is fine if you drink it at your own home.
There are children, so fruit candies must be bought. There are old people, sponge cakes must also be bought. Of course, the most important thing is to buy more medicine, all kinds of common medicines need to be bought.
Used to prepare for one or two families, three or four families, now it has to be prepared for more than ten families, not enough if it's less.
Tickets are definitely not enough, so I have to find the original small ticket peddler, don't know if I can find it.
Calculating these things in his mind, he felt that there were multiple thread ends together in his mind, which needed to be sorted out one by one.
Returning to the county, it was already lunch time. Li Long didn't go directly to the purchasing station. No one was there at this time, and people had to get off work at noon.
He pulled the horse cart back to the big courtyard, the door was locked, Li Long guessed that Gu Xiaoxia should be at Yang Xiulan's place, so he opened the door, pulled the horse cart in, first untied the horse and tied it well, wiped the sweat, gave feed, and then processed those things.
Jade is definitely to be unloaded, just put it in the room where jade was originally placed, and when scanning, found that the original jasper, including some Hetian jade seed materials, had fallen into dust, very inconspicuous.
That's right.
Those skins and deer antlers were just put in the cart, he didn't intend to sell deer velvet now, and hid it in the room. This thing will become more and more expensive later, until large-scale deer farming begins to appear, it will be cheap.
There is still a lot of room for rise, if not very short of money, it is better to keep it.
Snow lotus flowers were also taken down, this thing also can't be sold for money now, or it can't be sold for money until later generations, it is better to put it in his own home, soak wine and medicine, etc. These snow lotus flowers should be real, the kind that can't be found later.
Smelling the faint fragrance of snow lotus flowers, Li Long thought about it and put this in the bedroom. The fragrance will always be scattered, it is better to put it in the bedroom, it is also comfortable to smell.
The remaining skins, deer antlers can be sold directly to the purchasing station, sell for money and then exchange for things needed in the mountains.
Get more tickets, buy more.
As for that natural gold nugget, let's put it aside for now. The gold price at this time is only twenty or thirty yuan, and this natural gold nugget should not be pure, don't know how much it can reach, seventy? eighty?
Keeping it is also good. After processing these, Li Long rode his bicycle out, locked the door and went straight to the free market.
Didn't see the ticket peddler here, and didn't see Yang Xiulan, so Li Long went straight to the courtyard south of Wuyi Road.
At the gate of the courtyard, he heard the voices of Yang Xiulan and Gu Xiaoxia talking inside, and smiled.
Sure enough, they were here.
And smelling the smell, it should be eating.
Li Long pushed his bicycle in, Han Fang heard the sound and opened the door to look, after seeing Li Long, she shouted in surprise:
"Uncle Li!"
Then she turned her head and shouted into the room:
"Mom, Auntie Gu, Uncle Li is here!"
When Li Long supported the car, Yang Xiulan and Gu Xiaoxia both walked out.
"Back from the mountains?"
"Back, just went to the big courtyard, didn't see you, thought you were here, I came over to eat."
!.
"Why say eat?" Yang Xiulan pretended to blame, "We owe you for eating and living, it is only right for you to come over to eat, come, come, come, enter the room, hurry into the room."
It was very warm in the room, there was a pile of coal by the stove, smashed into uniform small pieces, a layer of newspaper was laid underneath to avoid dirtying the ground. The ash by the stove was also cleaned very clean, it seems it is often cleaned.
On the dining table, there were three bowls of rice, two dishes: stir-fried potato shreds, and stir-fried cabbage. A little bit of meat star could be seen in the dishes, don't know if it was specifically put when Gu Xiaoxia came over to eat, or if it was put usually.
Yang Xiulan walked quickly, served rice for Li Long, put it in front of the table, Han Fang had already pulled a stool for Li Long, and said with a smile:
"Uncle Li, sit!"
Gu Xiaoxia's seat was on Li Long's left hand, at this moment both plates of dishes were close to her position, which made Li Long see that Yang Xiulan was still quite taking care of Gu Xiaoxia.
"Okay, I won't be polite." Li Long was also hungry, picked up the bowl and ate a mouthful of rice, and when he was about to pick up the dishes, he said to the others:
"You guys eat too. By the way, Sister Yang, is the rice enough?"
"Enough, enough." Yang Xiulan said with a smile, "Originally made more, planned to stir-fry rice in the afternoon, now it's just right."
"That's fine, eat, everyone is busy after eating."
Those three people started eating.
"Did you just come back from the mountains?" Gu Xiaoxia asked with concern, "Is the snow heavy?"
"It's okay." Li Long had rice in his mouth, chewed and swallowed before saying: "Didn't pull many things, the horse cart can go up. I'm going to buy things in the afternoon, and I have to go up tomorrow, they lack many things."
Han Fang asked curiously:
"Uncle Li, what are you sending to the mountains? Who are you sending to?"
"Don't ask randomly!" Yang Xiulan glared at her.
Han Fang lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.
"It's okay, Sister Yang, it's okay. I have some herdsman friends in the mountains, they transferred back from the summer pasture, I send them some medicine, rice, flour and other daily necessities." Li Long said, "Not something that can be kept secret."
"Oh." Yang Xiulan nodded.
Han Fang raised her head, seeing Li Long looking at her, hurriedly ate a mouthful of rice, then picked up a piece of cabbage and slowly stuffed it into her mouth.
"Didn't encounter any dangerous things, right?" Gu Xiaoxia knew Li Long carried a gun, so she wasn't very worried, just asked.
"No, broad daylight, those things don't dare to come to places closer—by the way, Harimu said they met a white bear in the summer pasture, a white bear, it's really rare!"
"White bear?" Gu Xiaoxia was also very surprised, "Isn't it only polar bear that is white?"
"Don't know, it should be a brown bear with albinism. Just like a white tiger." Li Long explained, "I didn't see it, but there definitely won't be polar bears here."
The meal was eaten very quickly, Li Long didn't add rice, he said to Yang Xiulan:
"I'll come over to eat at noon tomorrow, you make more rice."
"Okay." Yang Xiulan knew Li Long saw that the rice wasn't enough, and said embarrassedly, "I didn't expect..."
"It's me who didn't say in advance." Li Long waved his hand, "It's okay, the dishes are stir-fried well. Alright, I won't clean up, I have to go back to handle things—Xiaoxia, what about you?"
"I'm leaving too." Gu Xiaoxia also stood up, "The unit is busy these two days, I have to hurry back."
"How long will you be busy?"
"A week."
The two of them said to Yang Xiulan and Han Fang, went out of the door, pushed their bicycles out of the courtyard.
The two of them rode out together. Yang Xiulan and Han Fang saw them turn out of the video, and then returned to the courtyard together.
"Mom, are you still going out to sell food in the afternoon?"
"Go, if you don't go, where will the money come from to eat." Yang Xiulan said, "It's cold, people in the market still want to eat hot food in the afternoon, let's cook soup noodles earlier and go sell them, we can earn two or three yuan in an afternoon!"
Han Fang nodded, indicating she understood.
Li Long and Gu Xiaoxia rode to the Education Bureau, and after watching Gu Xiaoxia go in, he returned to the big courtyard.
Next step, sell things first, then buy things, this time I have to use a horse cart. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 337 =====
