Chapter Five Hundred and Five Lazy Ghosts Can't Go Up the Mountain
"How can we deal with this? If the ginseng seeds turn red, you have to pinch them back quickly, otherwise they will be easily left undisturbed and eaten by civet sticks and rats."
Xu Chenghou was so anxious that he started talking to Zhou Guilan.
The chipmunk that Xu Chenghou mentioned is actually a chipmunk and a type of squirrel.
There are several patterns on the back of the crest, so the locals call it Huali Bangzi or Chipmunk.
Chipmunks eat various nuts or seeds, and ginseng seeds cannot escape and are eaten by them.
Although this little thing is not very big, its cheeks are very good at hiding things, and a few ginseng seeds are more than enough.
In addition to chipmunks, voles will also eat ginseng seeds, and even some birds will eat ginseng seeds after they start to turn red.
In order to prevent the ginseng seeds from being harmed, most people mix rat poison such as zinc phosphide with melon seeds or peanuts when the ginseng seeds have just turned red, and sprinkle it on the surface of the pond to poison the rats or chipmunks.
When the ginseng seeds are completely red, pick them back quickly.
But the Xu family is so busy that no one has time to pinch ginseng seeds. How can Xu Chenghou not be anxious?
"Grandpa, if that doesn't work, can I go up the mountain with my sister to pinch ginseng seeds?
My father and mother are too busy, so we can do this job." Seeing his grandfather getting angry, Xu Haiyuan suggested.
"Ah? Are you going? No, no, you can't mess around.
Last time you went to work in the mountains, my dear, I was so worried at home, so don't go."
When Zhou Guilan heard this, she quickly waved her hand, "No, we can't let the children go up the mountain anymore."
"Nai, it's okay. We won't go into the forest this time, we will just work in the field and we will definitely not run around.
Well, don’t Uncle Zhao and the others also have ginseng fields over there at Kaifeng? It seems that my second uncle’s family also has ginseng fields there, right?
That's just right, let's go together, we'll keep it safe so it doesn't wander around."
If Xu Haiyuan hadn't seen his family being so busy and couldn't care less, he wouldn't have cared.
School was about to start, and he wanted to learn more from his master.
Xu Chenghou thought about it, and what his grandson said made sense. The family was really too busy, what could be done?
"Okay, I'll follow you and call Xiaobo and Xiaotao.
The second son's stick only lasts twenty feet, and we managed to pinch back all the ginseng seeds in one day."
Xu Chenghou has already spoken, what else can Zhou Guilan do? "Then you can tell your son and daughter-in-law when they come back."
In the evening, Xu Shiyan and Su Anying went home, and Xu Chenghou and Xu Haiyuan brought up the matter of pinching ginseng seeds.
Xu Shiyan sighed, "If it doesn't work, I have to do what dad said.
Oops, everything is happening at the same time these days. Who would have thought that a foreign customer would suddenly come over and say he wanted to come for an inspection?
During this day, I accompanied them to visit water plants, water sources, and processing plants.
Huh? They also want to climb Changbai Mountain.
I said we should just go up the west slope, but they still didn't agree and insisted on climbing the north slope.
I will accompany them there tomorrow. I have to stay in Erdaobaihe for a day and climb the mountain the day after tomorrow. Oh my God, I am so worried."
Even though they grow up at the foot of Changbai Mountain, to be honest, unless they are doing side jobs or hunting in the mountains, most people have never climbed Changbai Mountain, and no one takes it as a big deal.
Ever since the old man climbed Changbai Mountain in August 1983 and wrote the inscription himself, Changbai Mountain began to become famous.
I don’t know how this foreign businessman knew, but he had to go to Beipo to see the waterfall, the Chengcha River, and the autograph.
I'm already busy this autumn, so I can't say I won't accompany you.
Lin Qiyue asked Xu Shiyan and Li Chengrong to accompany the foreign merchants with translators on a trip to Bei Slope.
"Dad, are you going to climb Changbai Mountain? Oh, I want to go too."
When Xu Haiyuan heard that he was going to climb a mountain, his eyes widened with anticipation.
"Next year, next year, Haiqing and Huihui will also be older. If the weather is nice, our family can go hiking.
Dad hasn't been there either, so this time it's just a front stop, okay?" Xu Shiyan touched the top of his son's head and comforted him.
In his previous life, Xu Shiyan went to Wangchi to collect Niu Maoguang, and he also went to the alpine tundra zone to dig Rhodiola rosea.
But when it comes to sightseeing and sightseeing, he has never been to Changbai Mountain, let alone the North Slope.
His daughter, on the other hand, worked as a tour guide and often visited the western and northern slopes of Changbai Mountain. When she came back, she would tell Xu Shiyan some of her experiences on the mountain.
In fact, Xu Shiyan also wants to know the difference between mountaineering today and mountaineering a few decades later.
Upon hearing this, Xu Haiyuan nodded, "Well, then next year."
Children are easily satisfied. Since dad said he would go next year, he will go again next year.
Just like that, we decided to pinch ginseng seeds tomorrow.
Xu Shiyan called the breeding farm and told Xu Shian that he would bring his two sons over to work in the mountains with Xu Chenghou tomorrow.
It happened that Zhao Jianshe, Huang Shengli and others didn't pick ginseng seeds yet, so they just discussed it and went there in one day.
At around six o'clock in the morning on August 16th, Xu Shian drove over in the car from the breeding farm.
Xu Chenghou and his grandchildren had changed their work clothes, brought water and a lot of food, and planned to go up the mountain to pinch ginseng seeds.
Before he could get on the bus, Sun Yu from Sun Xiaofeng's house next door came out and shouted at Xu Haiyuan.
"Haiyuan, will you take your scoundrel with you today? Otherwise, take him with you."
I don’t know if Sun Yu is just joking or if he really wants to lead the traitor.
"Keep your voice down, keep your voice down, let it be heard." When Xu Chenghou heard this, he was so frightened that he quickly waved his hands.
"We're going to work pinching ginseng seeds today, and we're not going into the woods, so why take it with us? We have to take care of it."
Are you kidding? This is serious work to be done. It's different from the time when I was picking grass. You can't lead a deadbeat to cause trouble.
If it hears this, it must follow.
Xu Haiyuan laughed when he saw his grandfather like that, "Grandpa, you don't have to be afraid, the scoundrel is just lazy today.

Just before we went out, my sister ran to find the deadbeat and asked it if it wanted to go up the mountain with us.
The deadbeat didn't even pay attention to her, curled up his tail, turned over and went back to sleep."
Xu Haiyuan wanted to laugh when he thought of what happened just now.
After getting up in the morning and packing her things, Xu Jinping said, if we go up the mountain today, why don't we ask the deadbeat if he wants to follow.
Let it go out for a walk and relax.
When Xu Haiyuan heard this, he quickly stopped them and said that they were going to work and could not bring deadbeats with them.
As a result, Xu Jinping refused to listen and had to find the deadbeat.
Xu Haiyuan was quite worried at first. If the scoundrel really followed him up the mountain, what if something went wrong again?
Who would have thought? Xu Jinping called the deadbeat several times and told it to go up the mountain, but the deadbeat didn't even open its eyes or look at them.
The little thing turned over, covered it with its big tail, and slept soundly.
When Xu Chenghou heard this, he burst into laughter. How about he said that this scoundrel was about to become a sperm?
"Okay, then it's okay. Let's go, let's go up to the mountain to work.
When you pinch the ginseng seeds, you have to wash them quickly. Taking advantage of the recent good weather, let's dry them quickly."
