"Sanmao."

"Three more cents."

"Another three cents added."

At three o'clock in the morning, Li Muyang's proud laughter could be heard from time to time in the bushes.

According to the market price, a cordyceps cordyceps cost about 30 cents. Every time he found a cordyceps, it was equivalent to picking up 30 cents.

I dug nine roots in one morning and made a net profit of two yuan and seventy cents.

The harvest is pretty good.

If you do a small job on a construction site, you won't even earn two yuan a day.

It only took him half a morning to earn as much as a day's work, and the harvest was quite good.

After experiencing difficulties in finding the first root, he gradually figured out the range where Cordyceps likes to grow.

Usually there are small pits around them, which will not be blown by the wind, and the ground is relatively fluffy, and there are often small shrubs next to them.

As long as this factor is ensured, the search will become much easier.

Basically, one root lasts for fifteen minutes, and four can be dug in one hour.

I got here too late this morning and wasted at least more than an hour. If I could have arrived very early, maybe I would have had more time now.

"Gugu~"

He wanted to dig more in one breath, but his stomach growled unsatisfactorily.

I left home early in the morning and didn’t eat anything to make up for it. Now I’m so hungry.

People here eat twice a day.

Have a meal at eight or nine in the morning, and then another meal at four or five in the afternoon.

Li Muyang didn't get here until 9 o'clock. Because he wasted too much time, he didn't think about eating and went straight to work.

After expending a lot of effort, the remaining energy in the body is exhausted, and the stomach begins to protest.

He struggled to stand up and rubbed his numb knees and calves.

I lay down for more than two hours in a row. I didn't notice it when I was lying down. Once I stood up, I realized that my body was uncomfortable.

I had no choice but to start doing radio gymnastics in the fields.

He couldn't remember which set this was, but he learned it from the students at school.

Although I wasn't able to do any work for long in school, I did learn this gymnastics, which can be considered a kind of gain.

Later, as he got older, he discovered more and more that radio gymnastics was really good.

Can exercise almost every part of the body.

When he stayed temporarily at his daughter's house in the city, he saw many people in the community dancing and twisting around in the square, which seemed less exciting than radio gymnastics.

It's a pity that he is the only one who can dance this set of gymnastics, and no one of his age can do it. When watching him dance, he looks like a madman, which makes him feel depressed that he is not understood, and he feels

Loneliness.

Now he is on this mountain peak, surrounded by birds and small animals. No one talks to him, so he can do things freely, unscrupulously, and very comfortable.

"One, two, three, four, two, two, three, four..."

"No two, three, four, six, two, three, four..."

After finishing the comfortable set, he felt that his body was indeed much more comfortable, and the stiffness just now became much more relaxed.

Just... I'm even hungrier.

Then have something to eat.

After eating, continue to work hard.

Li Muyang sat on the grass, opened his backpack, and took out a small bag wrapped in a towel. At the same time, he took out a military kettle that had a lot of peeling green paint on the outside and became less round in shape.

This kettle was given to him by a co-worker when he was working at the construction site. He had a brother who was a soldier, so he had this kettle.

When the new one came, the old one was given to Li Muyang.

Li Muyang is very happy. Although this kettle doesn't look very good, it is very beautiful to use.

I’m not afraid of water leakage, and I also brought some insulation. I filled it with water in the morning and it’s still warm now.

Every time Li Muyang works in the fields, he will fill a pot of water with this kettle, which is basically enough for him to drink for half a day.

The towel is filled with multigrain steamed buns.

A thick steamed bun with a strange color of black and yellow, mainly made of buckwheat flour, corn flour, sorghum flour, millet flour and a little bit of rice flour.

It’s just a hodgepodge anyway.

Only there is no wheat.

The Loess Plateau is actually more suitable for growing wheat.

It is cold-resistant, drought-resistant and has four distinct seasons, which is very suitable for wheat growth.

But the problem is that the yield of wheat is too low.

Unlike in later generations, about one thousand kilograms of wheat could be harvested from one acre of land. In this era, in many fields, especially mountainous areas, four hundred kilograms of wheat could be harvested from one acre of land.

Basically, they weigh about three hundred kilograms, and some even only weigh more than two hundred kilograms.

The wheat grown must be kept and handed over to the public grain.

Public grain only harvests wheat, and the wheat must be harvested well. If the wheat grains are not full enough, or the wheat grains are too small, too wet, not dried and cause mold, etc., it is completely suitable to hand in public grain.

After paying the public grain, there is not much wheat left in one acre of land. If it is used to eat, it will not be enough.

Li Muyang had no choice but to exchange the wheat for other people's buckwheat, corn or millet and other whole grains to eat.

This way you can eat longer.

However, each of these whole grains has its own problems. People in later generations are okay if they eat it occasionally, but if they eat it all the time, it will be difficult to digest and may cause constipation.

It is even easier to suffer from internal heat, blistering in the mouth, body swelling, etc. due to insufficient nutrition.

Let’s take soba noodles as an example.

People in later generations like to eat buckwheat noodles, because as a typical whole grain, it has low sugar content, which can prevent people from gaining weight due to excessive sugar intake. It is also very useful for some patients with diabetes.

But the reason why soba noodles cannot become a staple food is that it also has essential shortcomings.

Buckwheat is very difficult to digest.

If you are a person with a weak spleen and stomach, it will be almost impossible to digest buckwheat after eating it, which will seriously damage the spleen and stomach, and severe cases may cause diarrhea.

Let's take corn as an example. Many people eat corn occasionally and think it's pretty good. However, if cornmeal is eaten for a long time, it will also cause great harm to people's stomach.

Because the fermentation effect of cornmeal is poor, steamed buns steamed with cornmeal always have a sour smell, and in severe cases, they may cause vomiting and nausea.

Wait~

In order to solve this problem, when people make steamed buns, they like to add various whole grains to make a multi-grain steamed bun.

Offset each other's negative factors.

The thing Li Muyang took out is called "Buckwheat Noodle Liangliang" in the local dialect. It is not a small round bun rolled up one by one like a steamed bun, but directly chopped into pieces with a knife. It looks like a ridge.

Shape.

There is a little bit of saccharin in it to cover up the astringency of the soba noodles.

However, because the main material of this type of buckwheat noodle beam is buckwheat noodles, it conforms to the characteristics of buckwheat noodles. It cannot be blown into the air. If the wind is blown, it will become like a stone, which is too hard to be chewed.

There is a saying here that "the buckwheat horns are hard when exposed to the wind", which means the buckwheat noodles are used to satirize those who don't know how high the sky is when given some color.

Li Muyang felt the wind direction, sat on the grass with the wind at his back, and ate buckwheat noodles.
