Chapter 669 Seeing Wu Biao Again

Chapter 669 Seeing Wu Biao Again

Lu Lu suffered from insomnia when he heard the child call him father.

Chen Xiuyu also suffered from insomnia when she heard the child calling her mother.

The couple teased Xiao Zhengyang excitedly for a long time, as if they were afraid that he would suddenly forget how to call him when he woke up tomorrow.

In the end, the child fell asleep tired of playing, and only two people were left staring at Lou Leng in a daze.

The two finally looked at each other in dismay, and while the child was asleep, they chose to apply hot compresses to each other.

After tossing and tossing for about twenty minutes, each of them vented their excitement, and finally fell asleep.

When they woke up the next day, the couple found out in embarrassment that it was already dawn, and Wang Yan, Aunt Duan and Ma Jinlan were already waiting in the yard.

The roe deer in the roe deer farm give birth to young roe deer in pairs, which doubles the number of farms at once.

There is a lot of forage that needs to be prepared every day, and it needs to be searched and harvested specially. There are many things to do every day. Last year, Wang Yan was thinking about finding something to do. For the farm, Ma Jinlan, who has nothing else to do except geography and farm work, was also called to help, plus Aunt Duan.

With the three of them here, even if Lu Lu goes out, Chen Xiuyu can have company and care.

Coupled with the matter of Caodianzi's own bee farm, it is enough for the four of them to be busy.

From Lu Lu's point of view, they are all family members, so he can rest assured.

"Ashamed to death..."

Chen Xiuyu hurriedly dressed and got off the kang, and then went to wash up.

"When you go out, hold the child up, talk about things that will call parents, and make them happy, so you won't be shy... As for me, lie down for a while."

Lu Lu stayed on the bed, and it would be really embarrassing for the couple to get out together at a time like this.

Chen Xiuyu gave him a blank look: "Get up, help me braid my hair!"

Knowing that Lu Lu likes her long hair that hangs down to her hips, she simply sat down on the edge of the kang and left the matter to Lu Lu: "Who told you not to let me cut it short!"

Lu Lu grinned, but still sat up, and helped to divide her hair into three parts evenly with a comb, and then skillfully braided it. After braiding, she handed the ends to Chen Xiuyu, and asked her to tie her hair tightly with a ribbon. bow.

I have been using rubber bands wrapped with red wool before, but this thing always makes my head hurt every time I untie it, and it always curls a lot of hair on it. Chen Xiuyu simply sent it to me. The red ribbon tied to the can serves as a headband.

After dressing up this way, even after giving birth to a baby, she still looks like a young and beautiful girl. Looking at the long braid dangling between her waist and hips, it is still so pleasing to the eye.

Getting married early has the advantages of getting married early, you are young, your body recovers quickly, and your body is not easy to lose shape.

Chen Xiuyu hugged the child to hide her embarrassment, opened the door to welcome Wang Yan and others into the yard, and cheerfully showed the magical change that the child could call Dad and Mom.

It seemed that the child had grown a lot in just one night, which made Ma Jinlan and Mrs. Duan very happy. The child had never called out before, and it really worried them for a while.

Only Wang Yan touched her lower abdomen unconsciously and bit her lower lip, feeling envious, full of anticipation, and of course fear.

She is only seventeen this year!

While the four of them were preparing fodder for the deer in the yard and sending them to the farm, Lu Lu hurriedly got up, washed up briefly, and rode Chase Feng to the district to buy malt and hawthorn.

Unexpectedly, in the district, Lu Lu saw Wu Biao again.

Instead of squatting next to the purchase station as before, looking for people to sell guns and ammunition, I set up a booth with a flat-bed tricycle, selling some Dacron and light grass fabrics, as well as some hairpins, elastic bands, tied flowers, etc. little things.

"long time no see?"

Lu Lu rode on Chasing Wind and stood by the stall, watching Wu Biao haggling with a big girl, and after selling three feet of Dacron fabric, he greeted with a smile.

Wu Biao had also seen Lu Lu long ago: "It's been a long time since I saw you. I was arrested and stayed there for several months. I lost all the little money I made before. The guns and ammunition in my hand Everything else was confiscated...the business can no longer be done.”

"It's not bad now, selling things at a stall may make you more money than back then." Lu Lu said with a smile.

"How is it possible, I'm just messing around!" Wu Biao said with a bitter face, "It's hard to mess around!"

"Don't talk to me, it's not that I don't know what you're doing. Don't talk about anything else, you can get it for two or three yuan in places like Guangzhou, and when you get here, you can change hands for ten yuan. Selling it at a price, excluding the turnover tolls and so on, I can make a net profit of six or seven yuan...I used to be from Shanghai, do you think you can hide it from me?"

Lu Lu looked at him and said with a smile.

"Uh……"

Wu Biao scratched his head, looked at Lu Lu with some embarrassment, and then smiled and said, "Since you know the profit, why don't you develop in this business, which may be better than hunting."

"I don't want to enter the business again, I think my life is pretty good now..."

Lu Lu patted him on the shoulder: "Let's do this well. If you can make a lot of money, if you do it well, it's normal for those who earn tens of thousands of deposits a year. Moreover, the business environment in the future will get better and better. It’s better than reselling arms, that business can’t be done for a few years. It’s okay, I have something to do, so I’ll take my leave first..."

"Don't... Let's have a meal together in a restaurant, let's chat!"

Wu Biao grabbed Lu Lu, and then quickly folded the wooden plank on the tricycle a few times, and loaded it into the car.

Seeing him tidying up with his hands and feet, Lu Lu was slightly taken aback, and after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that Wu Biao might be of great use in the future, and he might be able to lead him to become an international loser in a few years... ...a rough idea, taking shape in my mind.

Lu Lu didn't refuse either, and followed him to Tian Youcheng's restaurant.

The two drank wine and chatted for more than an hour.

Wu Biao was also shrewd. From Lu Lu's words, he heard that Lu Lu was clear about setting up stalls and doing business, and thoughtfully inquired about these information from Lu Lu's mouth.

Lu Lu also gave advice based on what he knew, which made Wu Biao happy all of a sudden. Obviously Lu Lu was younger than him, but he was a brother on the left and a brother on the right. Shocked to heaven.

After the meal was almost finished, Lu Lu stood up and looked at Wu Biao: "Do well in this business, whether it's setting up a stall, or engaging in wholesale and retail, you can make a lot of money... let's go , let’s meet and talk another day!”

"Okay, I will ask you again when I have a chance!"

"You are welcome!"

Wu Biao happily sent Lu Lu out of the restaurant, and watched Lu Lu go directly to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic in the district. He paid the bill, pushed the tricycle again, and set up the stall on the side of the road.

Lu Lu went to the medical center and looked around. There were no patients, only an old man in a Chinese tunic suit sitting on a chair at the counter with his eyes closed, and two other apprentices who were taking care of traditional Chinese medicine on the side. material.

This is not the season to eat hawthorn, Lu Lu can only choose to buy it at the pharmacy.

Seeing Lu Lu coming in, two apprentices walked up to meet him quickly: "Are you seeing a doctor or buying medicine?"

"I'll buy some hawthorn!"

Hawthorn and malt are boiled in water to drink, which has the effect of strengthening astringency and is also good for digestion. It has a very good effect on solving Chen Xiuyu's weaning problem for her child.

"Yes, how much do you want?"

"Just weigh half a catty for me."

Hawthorn slices are dried, and the amount of half a catty is quite a lot.

The apprentice quickly took a bigger bag, weighed half a catty for Lu Lu, and wrapped it in newspaper.

"Snapped……"

Suddenly there was a soft sound.

Lu Lu looked back, and saw that the old man at the counter at the door was withdrawing his palm from his face, chasing something to slap him, and then scratching his face, probably bitten by a mosquito.

In summer, midges multiply and become numerous.

Even in broad daylight, a slightly shady place cannot hide from their infestation.

When I go to bed at night, I can say that there is a mosquito net prepared. As long as I close the mosquito net and slap the mosquitoes that get in, I can sleep well, but it is hard to say in other places.

Especially in the evening, even when I was sitting on the kang at home, I could still hear the buzzing of mosquitoes around me. Then, my hands, feet and face were bitten unbearably, and scratched everywhere.

Especially in Lu Lu's place, in Caodianzi, where there are aquatic plants, the mosquitoes and midges are even more exaggerated.

In summer in the wilderness, the worst thing to suffer is mosquito bites.

This is a rather headache.

In the farms, whether it is a deer farm, a wild goose farm or a deer farm, including the Oroqen horse farm that Zhao Tuanqing looked at, the sheds must be smoked every day, otherwise, the animals raised would be bitten and jump every day. go away.

Lu Lu also thought of a lot of ways, but the effect was really unsatisfactory.

After paying for Hawthorn, when Lu Lu was walking out with the medicine bag, he happened to see the old man take out a small piece of black thing in the shape of pagoda candy and set it on fire.

Pagoda candy is a magical medicine for treating roundworms these days. Most of the time, it is eaten by children as candy to knock out and pull out roundworms more than ten centimeters long in the stomach.

Looking at the roundworms wriggling like earthworms in the feces, my scalp felt numb.

The thing the old man ignited was shaped like pagoda sugar, but it was not. It smelled more like mosquito coils.

Is there any mosquito coils at this time?

When he saw this thing, Lu Lu couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he immediately walked towards the old man: "Master, what is this thing you lit?"

"Mosquito smoke, mosquito repellent." The old man looked up at Lu Lu.

"What's the effect?"

"Very good, I made it myself!"

"Uh... can you teach me how to do it?"

The old man looked up at Lu Lu and smiled, but said nothing.

Seeing his expression, Lu Lu immediately understood what it meant, and immediately took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it over: "Can you write me a prescription."

The old man didn't expect Lu Lu to be so upright, so he collected the money calmly, then took a page of letterhead, and wrote the prescription with a brush: moxa, charcoal, realgar, elm bark, tangerine peel, sandalwood.

"Just these few things, grind them into powder, mix them, knead them out like kneading dough, make them into the shape you want, and let them dry. Moxa is Yangcao, which has insecticidal effects. Charcoal supports combustion. Realgar and tangerine peel repel insects. , Grinding elm bark can have a binding effect, and sandalwood can make the aroma less unpleasant... This thing is precious, and it can be used without it, and the effect is quite good. This is an ancient method of making mosquito smoke."

Hearing what he said, Lu Lu understood in seconds.

He turned around and bought a lot of moxa, realgar, and tangerine peel in the drugstore.

As for charcoal, I have it at home, and also in the Elm Bark Mountain!

Thinking of elm bark, Lu Lu couldn't help but think of the large section of elm knot under the apricot tree outside Wang Demin's courtyard, which is also a good carving material.

Hmm... I got it when I went back and sent it to Kong Siren in the district. I don't know what kind of wood it was carved last time!

However, it is better to get out the mosquito coils first.

After paying the money to buy the medicinal materials, Lu Lu went out to a stall selling maltose, and went to the boss to buy some malt, and then rode chasing the wind back home.

He couldn't wait to make the mosquito coils quickly, so that he would be less harmed by mosquitoes at night, especially Chen Xiuyu and his children.
