Chapter 540 Preparations Before Going Home

"Lanfen is here."

"Brother Han, I knew you were back when I saw the door of the clinic open. Did you have a smooth journey?"

"It was quite smooth. Others arranged everything along the way. I just followed them."

"It's good that it went smoothly. Brother Han, you are busy. I have an appointment with Meng Zaihong and others to pick up mountain products."

"Then be careful when you go up the mountain."

After Yin Lanfen left, Han Li locked the door of the clinic and came to He Mi.

He Mi had just fed Feilong at home and was sitting on the kang to make clothes. There was no need to describe many things when the two met. Han Li put down the beef, fruit and imitation porcelain cups bought from Chuncheng, and the most important thing was to water the crops at home.

He Mi's temperament was very stable. She would only let herself go at special moments.

Now she was panting and nestled in Han Li's arms, listening to his experience in Chuncheng this time.

However, Han Li came out too late this time and left not too long later.

Han Li returned home refreshed, but it was almost time for lunch, so he didn't go to the clinic, but wandered to the backyard. However, when he looked through the herbs and mountain products that the sisters had collected during this period, his brows furrowed slightly.

The herbs include Schisandra chinensis, Astragalus, Elderberry, Lithospermum officinale, Leonurus japonicus, Prunella vulgaris, Bupleurum chinense, etc. Oh, and a big bag of Epimedium (old friends with kidney deficiency can pay attention to it, but it needs a professional doctor to match it with other herbs before it can be eaten).

After the mountain products, there are all kinds of mushrooms, wild walnuts, hazelnuts, wild grapes, chestnuts, mushrooms, wild grapes, wild jujubes, and mountain reds, but their family has almost no pine nuts all year round.

But think about it, pine nuts are notoriously difficult to pick, there are no good safety measures in this era, and the clothes on the body are extremely precious. No one would climb a tree dozens of meters high to do this. Occasionally, if there is a small tree or a pine cone picked up under a tree, it is generally left for the family to taste, and few people send it to the agency point.

But his family absolutely cannot live without pine nuts, and pine nuts have the greatest effect on Han's father and mother, such as expelling wind and cold, replenishing deficiency, dispersing wind, and moistening the stomach, so Han Li plans to go to the mountains before returning to the city, and harvest the honey from the nests he raised.

When Han Li was looking through them, the two sisters had already returned, and the three of them had a simple lunch.

In the afternoon, Han Li cleaned up all the medicinal materials in the house, put those that needed to be processed in the medicine cabinet, and put those that he could use into the decomposition space.

All the mountain products were classified and packed, and they would be taken away from Shanghe Village another day to pretend.

Just after Han Li had finished all these, Meng Zaihong's voice came from the front.

"Han Li, I heard from Lan Fen that you're back."

"Yes, I came back last night."

"That's great, hurry up and follow me into the mountains. There are too many people going into the mountains recently. If the fish I put in the valley are discovered, it will be a waste of effort."

"Now?"

"Go faster, there's definitely enough time."

"No, I mean the weather is just right now, let's go to the backyard and talk. Anyway, I know where your valley is for releasing fish, so we don't have to go together. Do you suspect that I will underreport the weight of fish?"

"How can I not believe you? Then you must do it as soon as possible. No, why go to the backyard?"

"What do you think? Fish Beauty?"

"This is in your house. Aren't you afraid that Yun Yingying will come back suddenly?"

"So we are in a tight time and have a heavy task now. Everything is aimed at talking about life as soon as possible."

"."

More than 40 minutes later, Meng Zaihong returned to the Youth Courtyard with a blush on her face and screaming at animals in her heart.

Han Li learned from Meng Zaihong that she went to the mountain with several female educated youth, but she found an excuse to go back first, and the others are still looking for mountain products.

Han Li raised his wrist to check the time and stretched his body, thinking that if Zhang Shulan, Wang Chunhua, and Xiaogang's wife were all free today, then he could be very happy and see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.

Unfortunately, this kind of thing can only be thought about, and it is very difficult to achieve.

However, when Han Li thought of Wang Chunhua, he felt that he had to go to her, because this year all the people around him had to go home for the New Year, so no one would open the door at the agency point, and his house also needed someone to come and light the fire from time to time, otherwise it might collapse after two snowfalls.

And who will feed the remaining flying dragons as seeds after He Mi and Qi Zhaodi return to Sijiu City with him during the New Year? I wonder if Wang Chunhua can handle all these things?

In fact, there is another candidate, Zhang Chaomei. It is okay to ask her to come over from time to time to help warm the house. As for other needs, it is best to seek the consent of Village Chief Zhao and Captain Liang.

In addition, the little guys raised by my family, the squirrels can be brought with me, and as for the dogs, Ren Liangshan from Zhonghe Village asked last year what to do with the dogs when returning to the city for the New Year. Unfortunately, Han Li had made arrangements last year, and this year he is probably waiting for me to send them over.

There are only two lynxes that cannot be placed for the time being, and the most important thing is that Han Li does not want to expose them to other people.

Han Li thought about it for a long time without any good solution, and finally made up his mind to make a safe nest for the two lynxes when he went into the mountains this time, and let them stay alone in the mountains for the whole winter. The performance for a winter is absolutely no problem.

This time of thinking passed quickly, and the sounds of many people coming back from the mountains could be heard on the street.

Some said they had a great harvest today, while others said they had a pitiful harvest today. In short, everyone's harvest was different.

Some people who knew that Han Li was back came to the clinic to see each other, but most of them stayed for a while and then left. They were all busy going back to deal with their gains today.

Only Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying were sitting here. Hao Hongmin didn't speak, but Yang Xiuying kept asking him if Chuncheng was fun.

But not long after the sisters came back from the consignment point with the things they received today, they finally remembered that they had not processed today's harvest. Some mushrooms might go bad if they were not spread out or hung up in time.

During dinner, Han Li talked about how to deal with the two lynxes when he returned home this year, which made the two sisters suddenly become worried.

"Brother Li, are we really going to put Ruhua and Ruyu deep in the mountains? Will they be in danger? Will they be able to find food? Will we still see them when we come back next year?"

"Don't worry, they have a very strong ability to survive in the deep mountains. If they can't be beaten, they can still climb trees and escape without being in danger. As for food, have you forgotten their previous behavior? I will go find them when we return to the village tomorrow. Come, maybe they can bring two uncles back."

After eating, Han Li was determined to go out for a dog walk, but today the two lynxes were held in the arms of the two sisters and they talked and did not follow Han Li out.

When Han Li came to the outside of the village, he gathered his strength, stretched out his long legs, and led the dogs towards the valley where Meng Zaihong kept his fish.

Early the next morning, Han Li took the chubby squirrel and the two lynxes with him. Under the worries and repeated warnings from his sisters, he went out. On the mountain belt, the pioneer crow entered without looking back. The mountain is gone.

Han Li has been away for more than a week. He first came to the secret base to marinate, smoke and dry the meat from the decomposition space, which would be sent home later.

After the meat was processed, Han Li entered the deep mountains and started the search mode. He collected all the mountain products, medicinal materials, large branches and tree trunks blown down by the wind as long as they were within the range of his mental power.

But of course Han Li would not forget his main target this time, the pine nuts. Just like in previous years, he would collect the pine nuts wherever his mental power could reach, and let the squirrels take action wherever he could not reach them.

The other step was to harvest the honey from those nests. In order to ensure that the bees had enough food for the winter, Han Li still put some sugar in them and strengthened their honeycombs.

Of course, Han Li would not let go of some blind beasts he encountered along the way, and he just used them to fill his meat reserves.

The last step was to find a safe and comfortable winter environment for the two lynxes. To be honest, Han Li didn't trust these two little things.

For this reason, Han Li searched for many places but was not satisfied, but finally settled on a place halfway up a cliff that was not too high.

There are many trees below that have sprouted out of the cliff. These trees can act as ladders for the lynx, allowing them to return to their mid-air home and avoid animals they can't afford.

What Han Li could do best was to open a hole for them halfway up the mountain, and the hole should have a certain arc and other exits. This would not only avoid the cold wind, but also prevent the two lynx from being unable to escape.

But this hole took Han Li more than a day to complete. After laying hay in their nest, Han Li told the two lynxes with an old woman.

The two lynxes had never experienced being abandoned by their master, and they often followed Han Li shortly after he left.

Han Li repeatedly warned him many times, including that he would come to pick them up next year. It took him a long time to finally get the two lynxes to stay with peace of mind.

In the more than a week since Han Li left, Hou Yuhua was the most depressed.

Because she was now helping Han Li collect medicines, but the health worker didn't call her when he came into the mountain, which made her worried and anxious.

The most sad and anxious person was Wu Lili, because after the swelling on her face subsided, she discovered that Han Li had gone out again. Wouldn't this seriously delay her recovery of beauty?

Wu Lili had become like Wangfushi again in the past few days. At the same time, she was thinking in her heart about how she could make Han Li pay attention to the situation on her face. She should not keep chasing her like this, but the other party seemed to have no shortage of money and supplies. This is very difficult to do.

Han Li arrived at the secret base this morning, collected all the pickled and smoked meats here, put some herbs and wild products in his backpack and headed back.

This time, he didn't leave for too long when he spotted two acquaintances in front of him. These two people were Wang Chunhua and Zhonghe Village's sister-in-law.

They were both carrying baskets on their backs, and they looked like they were going into the mountains to pick up goods, but when did they get together?

Although Han Li was a little confused, the two of them were right in front of him, so he shouted.

"Why did you two go away together?"

"Han Li."
