Chapter 490

After three groups of people and horses were agreed, no, people and donkeys didn't start immediately because it was too hot.

Everyone rested on the coolest floor of the bamboo house, but Li Tiezhu was not idle. His hometown is in the mountains, where the mountains are slightly lower than these mountains, but the absolute height difference is not big.

Before the construction of rural roads, there were 2.5 kinds of main means of transportation, one was horses, mainly small and good at climbing Yunnan horses, the other was Western Sichuan donkeys domesticated by Han, Tibetan and Qiang people, and the other half was a hybrid of horses and donkeys. In a real sense, there was no insulting hybrid - mules.

The number of mules is not large, but because they cannot reproduce, they are at best half species.

Although mules can't reproduce, they are more popular pack animals, because they eat less than horses, but have almost the same strength. However, I have a low IQ and a bad temper. I have the same virtue as a donkey.

But no matter what kind of pack animals, in Western Sichuan, the mode of transportation is the same, that is, pack transportation, because the mountain is high and the road insurance does not have the conditions to pull a car at all.

Li Tiezhu was very clear about this, so after dinner and grabbed the sponsorship, he began to use wood as a donkey saddle with a saw. In fact, it is very simple. A slightly curved "匚" shaped saddle is quickly completed, connected with a strong straw rope, put on the donkey, strangle the neck in the front, the waist in the middle, and the buttocks in the back.

Then, Li Tiezhu used bamboo strips to weave two connected bamboo baskets, which are similar to fishing net weaving, woven with the coarsest bamboo strips to ensure firmness.

Two bamboo baskets, one on the left and one on the right, set up on the donkey saddle, just right!

This is a kind of existence similar to bayonet. The horizontal wooden strips raised on the saddle are slightly larger, and the wooden strips connected on the supporting basket are slightly slaughtered and just stuck in.

The bamboo basket is very rough, and the eyelet is the size of an egg, but it doesn't matter. Whether it's a horse, mule or donkey, the main consideration of the carrying gear is adaptability, firmness and durability. Under the bamboo basket is a thin bamboo, tied with a rope. When things are transported to their destination, they can directly untie the rope. The baskets of goods on both sides fall, empty and tied. They can continue to pull goods. This is the wisdom of the simple working people.

Li Tiezhu was familiar with horses, mules and donkeys when he was a child. Generally, there are horses at two ends and two tails, and mules and donkeys in the middle, because... Mules and donkeys have low IQ and don't know the way. The horse in front leads the way, and the horse behind urges the process. People only need to follow at the end.

Donkeys and mules wear metal bits and bamboo mouth covers to prevent them from stealing crops on the way, but horses never need them. They are very self disciplined.

For hundreds of years, it was almost the standard way of pack transportation in three provinces and one city in Southwest China, even the tea horse ancient road, which was very popular for a time.

(the author's family used to sell tofu and bean sprouts. He led a mule, carried tofu and bean sprouts, and ran several mountains. He wrote here with emotion and wrote a few more nonsense. Forgive me!)

Then the three donkeys split up.

Zheng Yanzi said, "is donkey meat really delicious? I haven't eaten it."

Li Tiezhu said with a smile, "it's delicious, but it's not a matter of whether it's delicious or not. According to the compendium of Materia Medica, donkey meat tastes sweet, cool and non-toxic. It has health functions such as tonifying blood, supplementing qi and deficiency. It's not only meat, but also medicine!"

Oh!

I have taught Li Tiezhu pharmacology since Xiao Li.

In the far western hemisphere, Odin even had an impulse to change his name. The Latin of Odin means rough and violent, which is not elegant at all.

It's still nice to hear big baby!

He took another sip of the "five grain mixture", grinned and began to take notes:

"After the doomsday, there will be no oil, electricity and gas supply. We must find the best pack animals. In my opinion, the alpaca in South America is really stupid! Give up. It is necessary for the doomsday faction to purchase a donkey from the East in advance. Horses and mules will not be considered for the time being. They eat too much, but their meat is not very delicious! Donkeys are the best choice, according to the ancient books of the East The compendium of plants records that it has the effect of replenishing blood. Of course, replenishing gas and filling weakness cannot be accurately translated in English. In addition, it is also doubtful why a book on plant drugs records the effect of animal meat... However, we still need to learn the manufacturing method of donkey saddle and bamboo Basket! Remember! Remember! "

As the program continued, Odin was red and even dizzy.

Oh!

This damn Oriental spirit is so fierce without soaking zombies?

It's so cool! It's better than tobacco.

"Tractor, if you still pull your crotch like this, I may choose to let you scrap it in advance and burn it!"

This is the fourth time. Zheng Yanzi pushed her ass up the slope. She is a little impatient.

The mountain road is steep. Without a road, it will be difficult.

Carrying a hoe, Li Tiezhu smoothed the ridge just now, turned the hoe over, hammered the excavated soil firmly, and said: "The donkey can walk on the mountain road, but the ridge is too high, because its legs are short. Xiong Er, calm down. I really don't like it. Let's kill it. Although we don't lack meat now, we can eat it with a little effort."

The tractor didn't know if it could understand people. It suddenly increased its horsepower and ran forward.

Zheng Yanzi said, "watch it again! At least it was given a name by me. How shameless I am if I kill meat directly?"

Li Tiezhu: "do you want to face in front of me? I forgot to take Luding Bridge and ride alone for thousands of miles?"

Zheng Yanzi blushed, bah!

Disgusting!

When Li Tiezhu rode alone for thousands of miles, he took her on one leg and dragged her to jump around the playground twice. It was easier to fly over Luding Bridge. Li Tiezhu crossed his legs and jumped over Zheng Yanzi's head

This is a great humiliation! Revenge is hopeless.

Zheng Yan was purple and kicked the donkey: "now it's on TV! Give me face. People all over the world watch it. What should I do when I go to competitions all over the world?"

Li Tiezhu also wisely changed the topic: "in fact, if I say two more words, you'll kick the donkey to death yourself. I don't have to do it."

Anyway, serious brother never knew what pity is.

Moreover, a woman of Zheng Yanzi's stature, Xiang Guixiang, is not a jade, but an angry King Kong. She punches a strange eldest sister. The whole zoo is not her enemy.

Zheng Yanzi said, "I'm measured. I won't kill it before the last issue. The tractor is still useful."

The donkey climbed harder and panted.

Digging fern roots is a very boring thing, because there are too many Phoenix Tail ferns on the mountain, there is no difficulty, just dig them in turn. Pteridophyte is a species older than dinosaurs. They not only have a long history, but also... Delicious.

Of course, you can't eat alone.

Zheng Yanzi asked, "can't we bake sweet potatoes and make noodles with fern roots alone?"

"No!"

Li Tiezhu is extremely firm.

"Why?"

Zheng Yanzi asked again. She really wanted to eat baked sweet potatoes because they were... Delicious.

Li Tiezhu said: "pure fern root is slightly toxic. It is easy to be irritable, headache, throat discomfort, gastrointestinal discomfort, old injury discomfort, etc. after eating, it will also cause muscle and bone pain. Long term consumption may reduce the self-control ability of the nervous system. Therefore, fern root powder must also control the proportion of fern root and sweet potato, otherwise there will be problems!"

Zheng Yanzi: "ha? Aren't we taking poison when we eat fern root powder?"

Li Tiezhu said, "it's non-toxic. If you get rid of measurement and proportion, you're playing a rogue."

The work efficiency of them plus a donkey is the highest. Therefore, the speed of digging fern roots is very fast, but it takes more time because the weight of fern roots is seriously insufficient before autumn.

Two people with the second highest work efficiency are picking lobsters in xiahewan.

Qin Tao is obviously much more reliable than Yi Xing, who has an idol burden. They each hold a transformed trash can with a wooden cover made by Li Tiezhu.

Qin Tao's bucket is almost full, while Yi Xing's bucket is still empty.

Normal style of barrage:

"Spicy crayfish! No thanks!"

"Crayfish with garlic! No thanks!"

"It's impossible to make crawfish with garlic. Many of the garlic of primitive people have been planted..."

"Southwest people never eat garlic crayfish, only spicy ones."

"Poor! Invasive species have been eaten into endangered species!"

"Crayfish is delicious!"

"The dog forced program made me order another 120 crayfish takeout!"

"Can the crayfish be far away with the hot pot seasoning?"

The comment styles of overseas netizens are quite different:

"This is Procambarus clarkii? Oh! God, bless them."

"I heard that many countries are on the verge of collapse after the North American crayfish invaded Asia. Japan, South Korea, Annan and so on..."

"I think they are on the show to capture crayfish to protect the ecological environment!"

"Is this Chinese politics right? To be honest, I like this program very much, but now I'm a little disappointed!"

"Hey, guys, why don't you be bold? Maybe it's a food."

"Oh, my family, are you serious? Can crayfish eat? Even if the Chinese eat everything, the heavy metals in this animal exceed the standard!"

"Procambarus clarkii has strong survival ability. They will transfer heavy metals to their shells and reduce heavy metals by removing their shells. But to be honest, I don't think it can eat."

"Like the Asian carp flooding in North America, this thing belongs to the existence of no solution."

"Oh! Come on! This is an Asian program. Let's see how Asians eat crayfish! Believe me, they are more enthusiastic about eating than we are about cricket! Especially Ian perra Lee, he is the God of the chef..."

On the program lens, superstar Yi was overwhelmed by a huge crayfish, but Lang Qin was not afraid. He grabbed it into the bucket and said, "brother, don't waste such a big one! It must be yellow and delicious."

In front of the screen, big baby Odin shivered: "I knew it! I knew it! This must be food. The Chinese nation is the nation at the top of the food chain! I want to see how you eat crayfish. It can't be delicious! Unless Li works miracles again..."
