In this day and age, especially in rural areas, it is normal to be a grandfather in your forties.
"I can't help it, people are young and big."
Liu Qingshan said with a smile, this kind of situation is very common in the village, there are middle-aged people with unshaven beards, and there are people who call little kids uncles.
Asking the fourth and fifth children to take the toffee and snacks they bought back, a group of people talking and laughing entered the house, and suddenly a yellow shadow flashed in front of them.
Just passing by Lu Wensheng's eyes, he was startled, and subconsciously called out:
"weasel!"
It was really a weasel. It ran to the firewood fence and stood up its two front paws, looking around with its round head.
Several other people thought it was normal, and Liu Qingshan waved at the weasel: "Has your wife had a baby yet?"
Kaka, the weasel barked twice, wondering if it was greeting Liu Qingshan.
Lu Wensheng was a little confused: "Is this raised by your family?"
"It's like raising a cat."
Liu Qingshan spoke lightly, and then saw the weasel disappear into the pile of firewood with a flash of its body.
Can this thing be the same as a cat?
Lu Wensheng shook his head, even if he wanted to catch mice, he couldn't keep Huang Pizi.
Just thinking about it, I saw the big yellow dog in the yard, wagging its tail again, running towards the gate.
There was also an animal smaller than the big yellow dog outside the door. At first Lu Wensheng thought it was another dog.
But soon realized something was wrong: how could there be a red-haired dog, it was clearly a big fox!
Lu Wensheng was flustered in the wind: It's okay to raise a weasel, but also a big fox, what kind of family is this?
"Brother, when they saw you coming back, they all came out to welcome you."
Xiao Lao Si said cheerfully, anyway, she and Shan Xing both had the same thoughts, and it must be the same when they were weasels and fire foxes.
Liu Qingshan took it for real, seeing the big yellow dog and the fire fox at home sniffing each other very friendly, he thought it was not bad.
At this time, the fourth child began to mutter again: "Brother, can you go up the mountain and bring Xiao Hei back, Shan Xing and I both miss him."
"What is Xiao Hei?" Lu Wensheng was completely aroused by his curiosity and couldn't help asking.
The fourth little one rushed to answer: "Xiao Hei is a little black bear, he likes to wrestle with us the most, and Shan Xing and I can't even wrestle him."
Lu Wensheng was completely speechless, but sighed silently in his heart: This is really a miraculous family.
In the outside room, Lin Zhi and Yang Hongying were cooking, Liu Qingshan introduced Lu Wensheng, let him into the room, accompanied by Gao Wenxue, and Liu Qingshan came out to help his mother prepare meals.
In previous years, this month was the time when green and yellow were not harvested. Fortunately, there were cucumbers in the greenhouse this year, so I mixed a big cold dish, cut some salty bacon, and stewed it with dried beans, dried eggplant and dried potatoes.
This dish has a name, called "stewed three dry".
They are all dried vegetables. Generally, in spring, the autumn vegetables stored in winter are basically eaten up, mainly dried vegetables.
Dried vegetables are all dried in autumn, such as shredded beans, sliced beans, dried potatoes, dried eggplants, dried cucumbers, dried melons, and so on. There are ten kinds of them.
In addition, I also fried a plate of mushrooms and cabbage, and then fried a large plate of yellow eggs. After all, I picked up four dishes.
This is all considered good, if it was left to the first two years, when entertaining guests, pickles in sauce jars would be considered a dish.
There is also a plate of dipping sauce dishes such as mother-in-law ding, which Lu Wensheng is most interested in.
"Uncle Lu, I'll go get some small fish in the afternoon, and make fish sauce at night. The small fish in Kaijiang are the most delicious."
Liu Qingshan didn't drink, and asked his grandfather to accompany Lu Wensheng to drink a few cups, and said that Professor Wang was going to bring the students. Liu Shikui was so happy that he couldn't help but drink two more cups.
After eating, he lay down on the kang and fell asleep. The fatigue of driving and riding in the car was relieved, and Liu Qingshan started to get down to business.
He asked his mother to open the cabinet, took out a dozen or so jade wares, and placed them on the kang, almost staring at Lu Wensheng.
After a long time, Uncle Lu sighed: "Xiao Liu, your family is rich enough. Compared with you, I am simply poor."
"Hey, it's all given by my master, Uncle Lu, please help me appreciate it."
Liu Qingshan said politely, then took the pen and paper and handed it to Lu Wensheng.
Lu Wensheng copied all these jade wares carefully, and then marked the shape and characteristics of the jade wares on paper.
He wrote very detailed, the introduction of a piece of jade almost filled a piece of paper.
From time to time, he chanted a few words to Liu Qingshan:
"This kind of jade pig dragon is the most representative of Hongshan jade, which proves that pigs have been widely raised in the tribe at that time."
"This jade cicada is very good in texture and exquisite in shape. It is a rare boutique."
"Wow, this C-shaped dragon is not an exaggeration to say it is a national treasure!"
Lu Wensheng couldn't hide his excitement. China uses the dragon as its totem. Seeing that the ancient ancestors thousands of years ago were able to carve such exquisite dragon-shaped jade, a sense of pride arose spontaneously.
Liu Qingshan also felt agitated, because he is also a descendant of the dragon, and he will be proud of it for the rest of his life!
It took more than two hours for Uncle Lu to finish appreciating these jade wares, and he regained his peaceful appearance.
He said to Liu Qingshan earnestly: "Xiao Liu, it's best not to sell these treasures. Their value does not lie in money, but in civilization."
"I know!"
Liu Qingshan also nodded heavily.
Uncle Lu was still a little worried: "Then what are your plans to imitate these jade wares?"
To be honest, if he didn't see these jade objects, he would be very happy to cooperate with Liu Qingshan, after all, he could make a lot of money.
But after seeing these national treasures, if you do such a thing, you will involuntarily feel a sense of guilt in your heart.
Liu Qingshan smiled and whispered to him for a while, and Uncle Lu also beamed when he heard it:
"It turned out to be a scam, so don't worry, even if you don't want to pay, I will do this for you beautifully."
Uncle Lu couldn't bear to cheat others.
But Uncle Lu has no pressure to cheat the little devil.
Then the two discussed some details. For example, in terms of the selection of raw materials, modern Hongshan jade must be used.
The value of Hongshan ancient jade lies in its history. When it comes to the quality of jade, it is not very good. It does not cost much money to purchase modern Hongshan jade.
The most important thing is to be old-fashioned, Liu Qingshan knows nothing about this, but Uncle Lu speaks clearly.
What is steamed, boiled and fried, I don’t know, I thought it was cooking.
In the end, he patted his chest and promised: "I dare not tell the truth. As long as you are not a real expert, you are an ordinary person, there is no problem at all."
Liu Qingshan also gave a thumbs up: "Then I'll just call you Master Lu from now on."
"This is absolutely unacceptable."
Lu Wensheng kept being modest. He thought Liu Qingshan was talking about Lu Ban, but he heard this little Liu say with a smile: "Master Lu, a master of forgers."
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and felt a lot closer. Liu Qingshan estimated the time and asked: "Master Lu, can it be done within a month?"
"One month, the time is a bit tight."
Lu Wensheng also acquiesced in the title of Master Lu, but making old jade is a technical task. If it is slow, one or two years is normal.
"It's okay, you don't need to do it so carefully, it's just to fool the laymen anyway."
Liu Qingshan felt that Fujita was at most half-baked.
Lu Wensheng nodded: "Then I will rush back tomorrow, find suitable jade materials, make things first, and then make them old. It should be no problem to fool the little devil."
The two discussed the details, and Liu Qingshan knew that time was running out, so he didn't stay any longer, butchered a laying hen at home and stewed it.
He also asked Er Biaozi to help him run to the reservoir, and brought back a big fat fish weighing more than ten kilograms, and a pot of small miscellaneous fish.
Kaijiang fish and laying hens are the most delicious food in spring.
Liu Qingshan didn't plan to alarm too many people about this matter, so he didn't invite people from the village to accompany him when he had dinner at night.
Lu Wensheng took a piece of chicken, tasted it, nodded, then took another piece of fish, nodded again, and couldn't help admiring:
"It's so sweet. When I'm done with this matter, I'll come and live here for a while no matter what I say."
Liu Qingshan joked with a smile: "At that time, I'm afraid that Master Lu will hide at home and count the money until your hands cramp. You don't have time to spare."
Just as he was talking, Xiaohuo, who was sleeping on the kang, began to cry.
This little boy is usually very skinny, he basically doesn't cry, at most he babbles a few times, but today he probably smelled the fragrance.
The fourth child was the first to bluff: "Xiao Huo, don't cry, Auntie will pick up some chicken for you."
"I'll pinch the fish for Xiaohuo!"
Shan Xing is not far behind.
Liu Jinfeng quickly stopped the two ignorant aunts, and poked their little foreheads respectively:
"Xiaohuo is still too small to eat other things, or you will have diarrhea."
As she spoke, she went to feed the baby.
The fourth child curled his lips in dissatisfaction: "When will Xiaohuo start eating, it will make my nephew cry!"
Hearing that she is such a small person, talking about her big nephew, everyone couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Don't be in a hurry, wait until your teeth grow, and then you can eat slowly."
Lin Zhi smiled and explained to the fourth and fifth children, and the fourth child blinked his big eyes: "Mother, was it the same when I was young?"
Liu Qingshan lightly tapped on her little head: "You, at that time my mother didn't have much milk, and my grandfather raised two goats. You grew up drinking goat's milk."
When the little old four heard this, his eyes widened, and he said, "No wonder everyone says I'm shopping, so it's because of eating goat's milk!"
Haha, at the dinner table, there was a warm and joyful atmosphere, and Lu Wensheng felt a little emotional:
What a happy family.
Chapter 173 Less Hurt, More Caring
The next day, after sending Master Lu away, Liu Qingshan began to prepare for the cultivation of black fungus.
He couldn't handle this matter alone, so he found Captain Zhang and the old branch secretary, and reported to them about the trip to Spring City.
The owner of the car was also present, and the old three in the team were all together.
The old three, on their side, refer to the branch secretary, the village chief, and the accountant.
After learning that the materials for the plastic greenhouses have been settled, and that Professor Wang, who was once transferred here, will come to guide them in person, the old three are also determined.
Captain Zhang rolled up his sleeves excitedly: "Then let's throw our arms around and fight hard, Qingshan, what do you think?"
"Uncle Captain, Professor Wang told us to get fungus first, so let's lead everyone to cut down trees first."
Liu Qingshan knew in his heart that the original old forest in the mountains must not be moved.
Including secondary forests, cannot be felled casually.
The so-called fungus section is to cut down the trees with suitable thickness, remove the branches, and cut the wood sections with suitable length.
Then plant the fungus on it, and the black fungus can grow slowly.
At this time, the old party secretary spoke with a small cigarette pouch: "The black fungus, oak and black birch grow best in the forest. Shall we try to cut down these two species?"
People in the mountains are very familiar with these things, what kind of tree grows what kind of thing, what kind of solar term produces what kind of thing, they are all very precious.
This statement is correct. Aren't these resources in the mountains equivalent to the treasures at home?
Liu Qingshan also nodded with a smile, and then added:
"We can't just cut down trees and cultivate black fungus. We can continue to do this business. If we cut down all the trees and the mountains are bare, what will we do in the future?"
A piece of fungus can be used for at most three years before it has to be discarded, and the second year is the most productive year.
A crop of fungus is replaced every three years. No matter how many forests there are, if they are cut down instead of planted, the trees will be cut down sooner or later.
Trading resources for development is a short-sighted behavior eager for quick success. Many places have tasted this kind of bitter fruit, so Liu Qingshan does not want to make this mistake again.
Captain Zhang heard this, and slapped his thigh vigorously: "Qingshan, you are right, we only care about chopping happily, and don't care about future generations, so I won't live in a coffin."
The old party secretary also nodded vigorously: "The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants took advantage of the shade. This tree planting is a major event. Qingshan, you come up with a regulation, and you will follow the regulations in the future."
This is for sure. In the future, the technology of artificially cultivating black fungus will definitely be promoted and expanded, and even form a huge industry.
