Reborn in 1990, a life of fishing and gathering seafood.

Chapter 046: Snake Wine and Money Sharing

"Brother Hao!"

"What are you planning to do with this sea snake? How about we just kill a chicken and make a dragon and phoenix soup tonight..."

On their way back.

Fang Qiang asked Fang Hao casually.

All the seafood caught in the fish traps were sold to Wang Mazi, except for the large sea serpent.

It's clear he has some ideas.

It's worth noting that snake and chicken soup is quite famous in the coastal areas of southern China.

Among them are cobras and water snakes.

They are frequent guests at the dinner table.

"I'll keep this thing; it'll be useful!"

"Such a large sea snake is not easy to catch. We must take it back and use some medicinal herbs to make snake wine to nourish my father's body..."

Fang Hao smiled and said.

There is a custom of making snake wine by the sea.

This thing has high medicinal value!

Many villagers use sea snakes to make medicinal wine, which can be drunk or applied as a remedy for back pain.

Sea snake-infused wine has the effects of dispelling wind and dredging collaterals, promoting blood circulation and dispelling cold, and strengthening the body. It can promote blood circulation, relieve numbness in the limbs and joint pain, and assist in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

It is also rich in protein, amino acids, minerals, etc., and drinking sea snake wine in moderation can supplement nutrition and enhance immunity.

In short.

It's actually a pretty good product!

"oh oh."

Fang Qiang nodded.

He wasn't very interested in snake wine.

This stuff is usually only useful for older people. He's in his early twenties now, in the prime of his life, strong and healthy enough to kill a bull. He doesn't need snake wine to nourish his body or cure his ailments.

I was originally planning to use it to make soup!

After all, I really miss the taste of Dragon and Phoenix Soup.

"..."

"Can this snake be used to make medicinal liquor?"

Song Yaxin, standing next to her, looked on with suspicion.

Listening to Fang Hao and Fang Qiang's conversation, I felt inexplicably scared and horrified.

I never expected that snakes would be used to make medicinal wine.

Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.

She really had never seen it before.

"sure!"

"This stuff is incredibly effective."

Fang Hao nodded and said.

This sea snake is quite large.

It's even more effective when used to make medicinal wine.

You should know that in later generations, many people would specifically ask others to buy these sea snakes to make medicinal wine, and the longer they were soaked, the stronger the medicinal effect became!

Fang Hao was planning to give some to Fang Dajun, since the latter was fifty years old and gradually starting to decline.

This thing works on him!

This is just a small way of showing filial piety.

"oh oh."

Song Yaxin nodded.

Then he didn't say anything more.

These things were beyond her imagination.

Since marrying into the Fang family, my lifestyle and daily interactions have been completely different from my parents' home, and many things are unfamiliar to me!

After all, life in a village by the sea is vastly different from life in a village that is not by the sea; this is the difference between coastal and inland areas.

But...

I don't understand it.

He didn't say much.

"Yankees!"

"Are you free later? I'll go into the mountains with you and see if we can find some medicinal herbs to make snake wine..."

Fang Hao then turned to Fang Qiang and asked him.

These days, there are still wild medicinal herbs in the mountains; you can go in and find some to make medicinal wine.

After all, nature's gifts are definitely more cost-effective than money, and some things should be kept free if possible.

"no problem."

Fang Qiang nodded.

Anyway, he had nothing to do at noon.

It's no big deal to accompany the other person on a trip into the mountains.

You can also put some cages down while you're at it!

"Hahaha!"

"I'll share some with you once the medicinal wine is ready."

Fang Hao said with a smile.

This stuff is made using a traditional, family-inherited method.

You can't buy it anywhere!

"..."

Fang Qiang shook his head.

For him, it would be more practical to make snake soup.

When you're young, you don't realize how precious your health is!

In old age, all I can do is use my hands!

...

As they were talking.

Everyone returned home.

"Yankees!"

"We sold a total of over three hundred yuan today."

"Here's a hundred dollars."

Fang Hao immediately started distributing the money.

This thing only becomes truly useful once you have it in your hands.

Although Fang Qiang didn't pay for the fish traps to secure a share, Fang Hao didn't treat him unfairly.

Give them even more!

After all, they were childhood friends and playmates for many years.

When I asked the other party for help, I agreed without hesitation.

"Brother Hao."

"We don't need that much!"

Fang Qiang was also startled.

Unexpectedly, Fang Hao actually gave him 100 yuan.

Keep in mind that this amount of money is equivalent to a month's income, and he was just helping out with some work. Fang Hao paid for the cage.

So he was too embarrassed to take the hundred yuan!

"Take it if it's given to you."

Fang Hao was also speechless.

I never expected that there would be people who complain about having too much money.

He was only willing to give the other person 100 yuan because of their friendship.

If you only rely on working, you definitely won't earn that much money. For example, Fang Dajun only earns about a hundred yuan a month fishing at sea.

Money isn't so easy to earn!

"Brother Hao."

"I really can't accept it!"

"Just give me ten or eight yuan as a tip."

Fang Qiang shook his head directly.

He even spoke with a somewhat serious tone.

He has his own principles and bottom line in life.

I'm not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others.

If it were anyone else, they probably would have taken it without saying a word.

After all, who doesn't want money?

Many friends and relatives have turned against each other over money.

"Then fifty it is!"

"If you don't take it, you don't consider me a brother! I won't dare call you next time I'm using the fish trap."

Fang Hao saw that the other party's attitude was firm.

They didn't press the matter further.

So they lowered the price from one hundred to fifty.

"Okay... then!"

Fang Qiang hesitated for a moment.

Ultimately, I had no choice but to take it.

My feelings are still a bit complicated!

You can earn fifty yuan by setting up a fish trap once.

If he were to go beachcombing or hunting in the mountains on his own, he wouldn't earn that much at all.

Moreover, ordinary people wouldn't spend that much money to buy fish traps to put in, and they wouldn't even dare to think about it.

One fear is losing money!

Second, I'm afraid the fish trap will be stolen!

There are concerns ahead and worries behind.

"alright!"

"This is what you deserve."

"I told you before that I'd include you... but you were so stupid to refuse. We've been brothers for so many years, there's no need to be so formal..."

Fang Hao shook his head and said.

My childhood friend is just too principled.

I don't want to take advantage of anyone!

They are generous and loyal to others.

He even gave a 100 yuan gift as a wedding gift when he got married.

This is no small sum.

It's like you're spending a month's income as a gift; not everyone is willing to give up such a sentiment.

"Brother Hao."

"I know you want to take care of me..."

Fang Qiang shook his head and said in a deep voice.

After all, he's not stupid.

Nowadays, a fish trap sells for over 300 yuan.

If he were to give himself 100 yuan, that would be close to one-third.

Without contributing money or investing.

He couldn't accept the money with a clear conscience.

As for doing manual labor?

These days, wages aren't worth much.

Even people in rural areas can't earn much money at all throughout the year.

"..."

Fang Hao and Song Yaxin exchanged a glance.

There was a hint of helplessness in their eyes.
