Ji Jiu returned home and hurriedly cooked a simple meal and peeled some chestnuts to eat. She had to find a way to nourish her deteriorating health first. Forget about meat now. In the mountains, wild animals have long migrated. She thought about the things that were in the house right now. There was nothing to make any money from. Tomorrow she would have to add wheels to her wooden box and wash the three loads of laundry she had. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have any clothes to wear. Fortunately, the village stream was not far from her hut. If going up the mountain, it would probably be better to bring bamboo down to make a gutter.
After washing the rice bowl After wiping his body, Ji Jiu hurriedly went to bed, saving his energy for work tomorrow.
Before dawn, Ji Jiu hurriedly fried bamboo shoots and chestnuts for breakfast. So I could quickly go wash my clothes and leave them to dry and then go up the mountain.
Before washing clothes It was late after finishing drying the clothes. Ji Jiu hurriedly put a water bottle in the basket and a machete and prepared to go up the mountain. Today, she didn't have any materials to make wheels for her wooden box. Let's wait and find it on the mountain first.
Ji Jiu reviews his memories again. There are still many chestnuts left at her house. She had better stop by and cut the bamboo forest first. Once he had a goal, Ji Jiu didn't hesitate and immediately walked towards the bamboo forest.
A moment later, Ji Jiu arrived at the bamboo forest where she had come before. She hurriedly cut bamboo into pieces about 2 meters long, cutting 20 pieces. Ji Jiu sharpened and hammered them and tied them tightly into a raft. She couldn't drag them down the mountain. You can only raft down. Good thing she was able to estimate the depth of the stream. Preparing the raft and the long stick to control the raft was not difficult for her.
When you have the raft and the poles. Ji Jiu also placed a long piece of bamboo. Another 10 pieces were placed on the raft. She planned to use them for other purposes as well. After all, they would save a lot of effort from transporting them. Then she dragged the raft to the edge of a nearby stream and set it aside for now.
It is now late afternoon. Ji Jiu sat and ate chestnuts and water for lunch. Then, carrying a bamboo basket, he walked around a short distance to look for food. After a short walk, he found a bunch of garlic and put some in the basket. To be stir-fried with bamboo shoots. When I realized this, I hurried back and dug up several bamboo shoots from the bamboo forest. She would dry it and save it for later, so she wouldn't have to pick it as often. However, right now she couldn't pick it up because there was no salt. Heck, why was her life really so poor right now? She could only mutter.
Finishing picking bamboo shoots, Ji Jiu saw that there was still time before nightfall. She walked through the bamboo forest that the previous owner had never seen before. After walking for almost two weeks, Ji Jiu was out of the bamboo forest. In front of Ji Jiu, there was now a lot of tiger saplings, as if she had found a treasure. Ji Jiu hurriedly ran over and filled the basket. She saw that the bamboo shoots were taking up too much space so she removed them from the basket and continued collecting the bamboo shoots. She would dry it and sell it to a drug store. Thinking about it, I could only dream of the white money that I would get from selling this blood-stopping herb.
Baskets full of saplings and leaves for drying and selling. Ji Jiu took the sapling and planted it behind her little hut so that she wouldn't have to get tired of picking it all the way here again. She looked at the bamboo shoots that were left in the pile with regret. So he hurriedly made a pile of bamboo shoots and strung them into bunches and dragged them to the raft to get ready to go down the mountain before the sun set.
Ji Jiu carried all the things onto the raft. Arrange it so that the weight is distributed evenly to prevent the raft from capsizing. Drag half of the raft into the water and push until the whole raft floats. Then push yourself up onto the raft and grab a pole to push the raft down this small stream. With streams of still water So Ji Jiu slowly pushed the pole to control the raft until it reached a stream near the house just before sunset and pushed the raft onto the bank.
Ji Jiu dragged the raft up to shore with difficulty because the bamboo raft was now holding a lot of water. So she gradually unloaded the raft and placed it on the shore first. Then, they separated the raft into pieces and pushed it ashore. Ji Jiu, who was beginning to lose her strength, could only put down the bamboo that was her raft in the past. Carry baskets and bamboo shoots to the house to drink water. After collecting the clothes, take a rest and exercise before going back to dragging the bamboo.
