A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 21, Chapter 21, Business Opportunities, Crisis
"Mom, my bones are in good shape, not to mention that the doctor prescribed tonics for me. It's okay to eat two bites of eggs. Changxi is still young. If he doesn't eat well, he won't grow taller."

Xin Changning took a sip of the soup as he spoke, and said, "I just like vegetable soup. This cabbage is fresh and tender, much tastier than eggs."

"It's useless to be a mother..."

"Oh, sister-in-law, it's a big day, don't be unhappy, an egg is nothing, don't we have money now, go to the market tomorrow and buy a basket, let the two children eat enough! Come, come, eat first... "

Seeing that Mrs. Liu was about to cry again, Yang Yulan quickly smoothed things over.

The family finished their meal quickly, sent Yang Yulan away, and Mrs. Liu went to cook a bowl of medicine for Xin Changning to take.Under the effect of the medicine, Xin Changning quickly fell into a drowsy sleep.

She slept for a long time, and when she woke up, it was already dark.The oil lamp was lit in the room, and Liu Shi was hugging Xin Changxi and patting his back to sleep, Xin Changning couldn't help coughing because of the smoke in the room.

"Ahem... Mother, where is there so much smoke?" She was surprised to see the smoke that filled the room like it was on fire.

"Oh, I lighted the calamus." Hearing this, Mrs. Liu hurried to the window, and stomped on a large cluster of burning calamus.

"Mother, what are you ordering so many calamus for?" Xin Changning was puzzled.

"Smoked mosquitoes, there are a lot of mosquitoes now, and we don't have a mosquito net at home. If you don't order this, you won't be able to sleep at night." Liu explained, and quickly asked: "Are you hungry, mother cooked porridge, you wash your face first , serve it to you immediately."

"Calamus does have the effect of smoking mosquitoes, but the effect is not good when used alone..."

Speaking of calamus, Xin Changning suddenly remembered something; in her previous life, her grandfather was an old doctor of Chinese medicine. After retirement, he lived in the countryside for a long time. Every summer vacation, he made homemade mosquito repellent packs and gave them to neighbors in the village.

When she was a student, she helped her grandfather make medicine packs almost every year, and she was already familiar with the formula and method.

Perhaps, this is a business opportunity to make money.

The medicine packs use common herbs, and the climate here is similar, so it shouldn't be difficult to get them.

There must be a lot of villagers in the countryside who can't afford to hang up mosquito nets. Even if they can, the medicine pack can also repel other flies. If the medicine pack can be made and sold, it may make a small profit.

The cost of jewelry design is too high. With the current situation of her family, she can't even touch it in a short time.If the medicine kits can make money and have a stable daily income, she can also settle down and research other ways to make money.

Thinking of this, Xin Changning immediately became happy.

With the excitement of making money, Xin Changning got up early the next morning, regardless of Liu's obstruction, and couldn't wait to go to the back mountain to collect herbs.

The mountain behind Kaoshan Village is called Tiger Mountain. From a distance, the whole mountain looks like a majestic tiger squatting there.The mountain village is right in front of the tiger's paw, and the usual range of activities of the villagers is also near the tiger's leg.

Further inside, there are wolves and ferocious beasts in the inner mountains. Except for hunters, most people dare not go in alone.

Now it is September, which is a good time for all kinds of plants to harvest fruit. The vegetation in the mountain forest is dense, and all kinds of cheap herbs can be seen everywhere.

Wormwood, honeysuckle, mint, mosquito repellent... Oh, and calamus.

Xin Changning quickly found the herbs he wanted, and only after picking half of the basket did he realize that there was still a calamus missing.

The calamus at home were all burnt out last night. Calamus likes water, so I have to go to the water to pick it.

Fortunately, there are many streams in the mountains, so she walked along a stream, walking a long distance without knowing it.

Seeing that she was about to go deep into the forest, she suddenly came to her senses, and was about to turn her head to leave, when she saw a large calamus growing beside the stream in front of her, with long flat leaves that were lush and lush, interspersed with small brown sticks, It was slightly shaken by the wind, as if waving at her.

"Forget it, hurry up and go home, this is not an inner mountain!" Seeing the sun shining brightly and the surrounding environment peaceful and peaceful, Xin Changning hesitated and walked over.

Unexpectedly, before he got close, he smelled a bloody smell.

"what happened?"

She immediately took a few steps back in fright, for fear of encountering some ferocious beast.

As a result, at this moment, Calamus, which was as tall as a calf, suddenly stretched out a hand from inside.

It's a person, and it's still a living person!

Rescuing people is the most important thing, and there is no time to think about it, Xin Changning rushed over without hesitation, pushed aside the dense grass, and saw a person lying on his back in the stream, his brocade clothes were soaked, floating in the stream beside him. Silky red.

"what!"

She screamed in fright, before she had time to do anything, a bright sword had already reached her neck.
