At night, the children suffer and sleep soundly, and the adults don't even think about sleeping.

Fan a fan for a night, catch mosquitoes for a night.

But the next day, the children were still bitten all over their bags, and their appetite decreased.

Seeing this, Yang Ruoqing couldn't sit still.

After a night of careful consideration, the next morning, she took the old village doctor Fubo and a few people from the medicine collection team into the mountain together.

I set out in the morning with dry food, and I didn't go down the mountain until sunset to return to the village.

Then, a dozen or so bamboo baskets contained green grass, leaves, and vines.

There were also yellow, white, all kinds of wild flowers that could be called and that could not be named, all appeared in her house.

"Qing'er, what are you trying to do?"

Luo Fengtang came from the other side of the canal, and came directly to her house without taking a sip of tea.

"I heard that your medicine collection team entered the mountain today, is this the result?"

He crouched down beside her and asked curiously.

Yang Ruoqing was squatting on the ground, burying her head in picking up the flowers and plants in the bamboo basket in front of her.

Hearing this, she said without raising her head: "Well, I went into the mountain today specifically to pick these!" ”

Luo Fengtang raised his eyebrows: "Oh, then can you tell me, what are the flowers and plants in these baskets used for?" ”

Yang Ruoqing hooked her lips and smiled, so she pointed to the flowers and vines in the basket one by one, and introduced them to him one by one.

"This is mosquito repellent grass, this is peppermint, this is bay leaf, that is geranium......"

"Well, those baskets over there are all Chinese herbs."

"These flowers and plants, I want to refine their essence to make a flower water that repells mosquitoes and relieves itching." She said.

Luo Fengtang's eyes lit up.

"That kind of flower water, is it similar to the sachet of wormwood cattail you gave me to wear during the Dragon Boat Festival?" He asked.

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Smart, that's right!" ”

Then, she continued: "There are too many mosquitoes, and the adults and children in the family are all bitten like words. ”

"When I got up from sleep, I saw that Mianmian had been bitten and fattened a lot."

"With this mosquito repellent grass, it's so much better!"

Hearing Yang Ruoqing say this, Luo Fengtang was also interested.

"What else? Are all of these used for toilet water? He asked.

Yang Ruoqing hooked her lips and shook her head.

"Of course not!"

"To be exact, I'm going to make three kinds of water."

"One is toilet water, which is used to repel mosquitoes."

"As for the second one, I plan to refine the essence on the basis of the flower water, add different flower essences, and make a perfume."

"At that time, the toilet water will be sold in the shops at a public price that is acceptable to the people."

"As for perfumes, take the high-end route."

She has paid attention to the markets in Daqi and even Daliao in the north and Licheng in the south.

In the rouge gouache shop, there are a lot of spices and something.

The ladies also liked to burn all kinds of incense in the boudoir.

However, no one has yet researched perfume.

As long as she makes toilet water and perfume, and then cooperates with Zuo Junmo to bring it to the market together.

Hehe, from low-end to high-end, cast a net, and eat all the big fish and small shrimp.

When the time comes, the money will roll in.

And Mianniu Mountain, the most important thing is these raw materials.

"Qing'er, your idea, I think Tie Cheng!"

Luo Fengtang's praise pulled her thoughts back.

"By the way, you haven't told me yet, what is this last water and what is it used for?" He asked again.

Yang Ruoqing came back to her senses and said, "The last one, I plan to make disinfectant." ”

"Sanitizer?" Luo Fengtang was surprised.

Yang Ruoqing nodded, and said with a serious face: "When the flood came, a lot of things were drowned, and the carcasses of many poultry and livestock were rotted in this water. ”

"When this flood waters recede, there will definitely be a lot of germs growing around."

"At that time, people who are not in good health, the elderly and children, are most likely to be infected and sick."

"So I have to develop a disinfectant to kill bacteria before I do." She said.

Hearing her worry, Luo Fengtang's face also became serious.

"Your concerns are well founded, and it is."

"Qing'er, seeing that you are working so hard to make these, is there anything I can do? Assign me some too." ”

Luo Fengtang begged.

Yang Ruoqing smiled at him and winked, "Silly boy, you get up early and dig the canal in the dark, aren't you tired?" ”

He shook his head: "Digging a canal is digging a canal, but I still want to do something with you." ”

"Okay Qing'er, just give me a chance and assign me a little work!"

"I can do something for you when I'm free."

Looking at his sincere pleading, Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment.

"Well, when you dig the ditch, if you see a snake in a nearby ditch, help me catch some." She said.

"What do you want snakes to do?" Luo Fengtang asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Take their snake gall bladders and add them to the flower water." ”

Luo Fengtang: "......"

Yang Ruoqing continued: "There are clouds in medical books: snake gallbladder is cool, bitter in taste, can dispel wind and dampness, cool and brighten eyes, detoxification and prickly heat. ”

Luo Fengtang nodded without hesitation: "Since it is a good thing that can come in handy, isn't it simple?" ”

"This will be a big flood, and there is no shortage of those snakes."

"Tomorrow, I'll dig a ditch, bring a deep bucket basket, and promise to catch a basket for you!" He said.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and added a few words to him.

The general idea is to teach him which types of snakes to catch, some of which are highly venomous, don't catch them.

In fact, the gall bladder of any snake can be used as medicine.

In particular, such as the silver krait snake and the five-step snake, the snake gallbladder of these highly venomous snakes is a precious medicinal material.

It's just that she didn't want him to put himself in danger, so she only told him to catch some water snakes, black snakes, pythons and the like.

……

The next day, Yang Ruoqing took the people of the medicine collection team into the mountain as usual.

When she returned home in the evening, Luo Fengtang and the others also called it a day.

Sure enough, he brought back most of the snakes in the basket.

The strips are entangled together, and when they are brought out, it is like carrying a bundle of entangled nylon threads.

It's just that this thread mass will wriggle, and when it wriggles, the scales rub against each other, and it makes a sizzling, sizzling sound.

The women in the courtyard were so frightened that most of their souls were lost, and they all looked at them from a distance, and they didn't dare to approach at all.

Even a sturdy woman like the eldest grandson was there shouting that her scalp was cold.

"Qing'er, what are you going to do when you let Tang Lingzi get so many snakes back?"

Da Sun couldn't help but ask.

"When these snakes slip away, they get into our house, and when they get into the bed, I'm going to be scared to death!"
