After Xiao Jinlin returned to Xianjiqiao, he worked with his parents to earn work points every day, but he always thought about his senior brothers in the mountains.
"Dad, didn't you say before that you had seen others take musk? Do you know how to take musk?" Xiao Jinlin asked.
"Why not? What's the use? The brigade doesn't raise fragrant deer. What do you want to do with this?" Xiao Laosi used to work outside to help others, and he really did the job of collecting musk.
"Senior brother caught a wild deer, a male. But he definitely doesn't know how to get musk. Why don't you go up to the mountain to get musk for senior brother one day?" Xiao Jinlin said.
"Really? Chang Xing really got a male fragrant deer?" Xiao Laosi was really curious.
"Why am I lying to you?" Xiao Jinlin muttered.
"Then when I am free one day, I will go to the Patriarch's Temple. Getting musk is a technical job. It is not that easy. Musk used to be extremely expensive and only wealthy families could afford it. The family where I helped raised the musk
He bought a large group of deer deer, and the old man started his business by selling musk. He himself was an expert in collecting musk. Later, he hired a few helpers, but he couldn't do it by himself. Mainly because he was old and faint, and his eyesight was not good.
.My skills are the best, and he values me the most. Let me tell you, the eldest father also gave birth to cubs back then, and he didn’t have a daughter, otherwise he would have married me long ago." Xiao Laosi became more and more proud as he talked, and he forgot all about it.
There are always jealous people around me.
"Xiao Laosi! You can sleep in the bullpen tonight." Zhou Lanying snorted coldly.
"Mother, Jin Lin and I were joking, do you take this seriously? How could a rich family like a helper?" Xiao Laosi could only tell the truth honestly.
"Dad, it turns out you are bragging. Then you know how to take musk, are you bragging too?" Xiao Jinlin said worriedly.
"Don't worry, everything else is just bragging, but this one is true. I have collected musk from that wealthy family for so many years, how can I be bragging?" Xiao Laosi said.
A few days later, Xiao Jinlin took Xiao Laosi up the mountain.
"Brother, where have the old cats and the others gone?" As soon as he arrived at the Patriarch's Temple, Xiao Jinlin looked around for the old cats and the big black big yellow.
"Who knows? He must have gone for a walk in the mountains." Chang Xing said.
"Brother, I asked my dad to come up to the mountain today to help you get musk. My dad used to get musk from a wealthy family's house," Xiao Jinlin said.
"Have you settled on a partner?" Chang Xing asked.
"How could it be so fast? Where's the deer? Didn't he run away?" Xiao Jinlin quickly changed the subject.
"If you can't drive them away, how can they run away?" Chang Xing pointed not far away. Sure enough, there was a fragrant deer eating grass there.
"Then how do you get it back?" Xiao Jinlin asked.
"When you're full, you'll come back naturally." Chang Xing has never rushed there before, Xiang Deer comes back on his own initiative.
Xiao Laosi looked at the fragrant deer: "This fragrant deer is good, the coat looks very bright, the quality of the musk must be very good."
The fragrant deer ate grass on the mountain for a while and then came back by itself. As soon as he came back, he was a little wary when he saw two unfamiliar faces and was ready to run away at any time.
Chang Xing waved, and Xiang Deer came over by himself.
"How to get the musk? I'll keep it still and you just get it," Chang Xing said.
"You can't get it now, there's no one. After liberation, I stopped doing this. The guys who used to get musk thought they wouldn't use them, so they threw them all away." Xiao Laosi said with some embarrassment.
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xiao Jinlin complained.
"It's not complicated to pick out musk. Chang Xing is a master carpenter and can make it." Xiao Laosi briefly explained the specifications and shapes of the tools. There is no strict standard for this thing in the first place, and it is all made casually.
What comes out is usually very rough. In the hands of Chang Xing, a master carpenter, he can naturally make it more refined. Choose the hardest material as the material, then make a rough outline, and then use a carving knife to make it.
Slowly carving and polishing, finally made the most exquisite musk extraction tool. This thing is actually like an ear-picking spoon. It is very slender. If Chang Xing hadn't used an extremely hard wood, it would be as strong as steel.
It's average, otherwise it really wouldn't be very durable.
"This tool is great, I'm afraid it's the best I've ever used." Xiao Laosi praised.
"Dad, stop being so nagging, senior brother doesn't like hearing this." Xiao Jinlin said.
"You are the only one who can't speak at all. Brat, you should be sweeter, otherwise no girl will like you." Xiao Laosi said.
"Well, Uncle Fourth is right. If you don't coax your sister, she will definitely look down on you." Chang Xing said with a smile.
"Senior brother, you have no one to talk to. How did you know that the girl's family is trying to coax her?" Xiao Jinlin asked.
Chang Xing was shocked, this junior brother really deserves to be beaten to death.
Xiao Laosi prepared the thing and said to Chang Xing: "Chang Xing, please tell this fragrant deer not to move around."
The fragrant deer seemed a little unaccustomed and kept struggling. Chang Xing patted its head and said, "Don't move."
As expected, the fragrant deer stopped moving.
Xiao Laosi was stunned for a moment, but he quickly figured it out. It was normal for Chang Xing to have some unexpected tricks. It would be a surprise if he didn't.
Xiao Laosi found the place to take the musk: "Be careful, I'm going to take the musk, don't let it break free."
"Don't worry, it's very obedient," Chang Xing said.
Does this have anything to do with obedience? Xiao Laosi slandered.
However, when Xiao Laosi took out the musk, although the deer was a little scared and trembling, it did not move. Xiao Laosi was able to use the musk retrieval skill smoothly and took out a bowl of bright red musk particles.
Not only does this musk have a very good shape and bright luster, but it is also relatively dry. You can tell at a glance that this musk is of good quality.
But Chang Xing didn't even want to smell it because the musk part was too easy for people to imagine.
Xiao Laosi was very happy, this was the best quality musk he had ever picked.
"Chang Xing, if this were in the past, this musk would have been more expensive than gold. I have never gotten such good musk from that wealthy family. Maybe it's because the fragrant deer is wild." Xiao Laosi said,
He actually picked a little musk from the bowl with the tool he had just used to pick up the musk and put it in his mouth to taste it.
Chang Xing and Xiao Jinlin were stunned.
"Dad, does it smell like urine?" Xiao Jinlin asked. The musk was actually taken out of the sac next to the urethra.
Xiao Laosi nodded, "A little bit, it tastes good."
"Dad, does mom know you like to eat this?" Xiao Jinlin asked in surprise.
"Smelly boy, you know nothing. What I said is that musk tastes good. Your father and I have been extracting musk for so many years, and the musk we extracted is clean and has no impurities at all. This stinky boy doesn't understand anything.
Uh, Chang Xing, I didn't mean you, I meant Jin Lin." Xiao Laosi scolded for a while, only to realize that Chang Xing was also scolded.
