Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 515: Stocking up on meat

Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao went to prepare salt, jars and other items for pickling meat, while Liu Jingxue was busy in the space first.

Last year, she ran deep into the mountains to look for soil for growing mushrooms, then dug up the ground and transplanted them all into the space. Tuanzi was responsible for placing them in a place in the back mountain that was suitable for their growth according to their habits.

When she remembered, she would collect some and dry them. When she couldn't remember, she would let them wither and die after ejecting spores, and turn into nutrients again to nourish the soil beneath them.

These days, the growing area of ​​those mushrooms has become larger and larger. Although she has collected some dried wild mushrooms, the quantity is not too much.

Now that Zheng Pengcheng has been taken away, she needs to restore communications with various places. With so many people waiting for her dried wild mushrooms, she has to dry more quickly.

Worried that she might forget about it, Liu Jingxue did not forget to remind Tuanzi,

"Tuanzi, if I forget about those mushrooms in the future, please help me collect more high-quality ones, dry them and store them in the warehouse."

"Master, I have collected a lot of high-quality mushrooms and stored them in the warehouse. Even if you eat them every day, they will be enough for you to eat for several years. Don't you know that?

Didn't you check the situation in the warehouse?"

"There are so many warehouses. I will only check them one by one when I need to. I never think of checking the warehouses at other times."

After Tuanzi told Liu Jingxue which warehouse the mushrooms were stored, her mind entered the warehouse and she indeed saw many mushrooms.

Liu Jingxue used her mind to take out most of the mushrooms and spread them out to dry.

“After these are dried, send them to other people in batches.

I'll keep the ones in the storehouse for myself."

“Tuanzi, from now on, you should dry most of the mushrooms you collect and keep a small portion fresh.

The same goes for other mountain products.”

"Don't worry, Master, I will take care of it.

But master, pine trees and hazel trees are perennial plants, and the trees you transplanted into the space before were not very big.

Although the flow of time in the mountains in space is faster than outside, which can accelerate their growth, I went to check before and found that the hazelnut trees have already borne fruit, and they will probably be mature and harvestable soon.

But the pine trees have no fruit this year. If you want to eat pine nuts this year, you have to go to the mountains outside to collect them.

Before, when you went into the mountains, I observed the fruit bearing situation of the pine trees in the forest outside, and found that not every pine tree in the forest outside, which was in the peak fruit-bearing period, had fruit.

I guess that for this pine tree to produce pine nuts, it must be of a relatively old age, and like the characteristics of some plants, there may be differences in good and bad years.

If you want to achieve pine nut freedom, you may need to transplant more older pine trees into the space next spring."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jingxue quickly asked, "What do you think the hazelnut yield is? Do you still need me to go outside to pick them?"

"You don't plan to sell the hazelnuts. If you only use them yourself, plus the ones you send to other places, it should be enough."

“To be on the safe side, I’ll go into the mountains and get more hazelnuts when they’re ripe.

Anyway, now I have spiritual sense to help me, so I don’t even need to climb the tree. I can just use spiritual sense to pick the fruits.

Tuanzi, help me plant some hazelnut trees so that they can produce more."

"Okay, master."

“As for pine nuts, since there are no pine nuts in this space, I will go to the forest outside to collect more this year. Anyway, I have the help of spiritual consciousness, so it won’t be troublesome.

When the time comes, we can go to the mountains and transplant some old pine trees into the space to avoid them not bearing fruit next year."

Liu Jingxue's eyes turned, "Tuanzi, if I transplant the fruit-bearing tree into space, will its fruits still ripen naturally?"

"Master, to be on the safe side, you should wait until the fruit is ripe before transplanting it into space.

I can guarantee that the trees transplanted into the space will definitely survive, but I cannot guarantee that the half-grown fruits will not be damaged and no longer mature." Tuanzi consoled.

"Well, then I'll listen to you. When the pine nuts are ripe, I'll store both the tree and the nuts into the space.

Pine nuts generally mature from mid-September to mid-October, which is the busiest time for the autumn harvest.

One night I went into the mountains, deep into the mountains to collect a fruit-bearing pine forest into the space.

Tuanzi, when the time comes, you can help me find a place to plant the tree, and then help me collect the pine nuts."

After a pause, Liu Jingxue continued, "If you see a hazelnut forest, just get a batch of them into the space, so you don't have to cultivate them anymore."

"Everyone listens to the master."

"Tuanzi, I asked you to find a way to grow chestnut trees before. Have you figured it out?" Liu Jingxue asked.

She wanted to eat chestnuts, but unfortunately, she had been looking for chestnuts in the forest for a long time but couldn't find any. She guessed that chestnuts were not grown here.

“Master, rest assured, I have already grown chestnut seedlings, but it will take several years for them to grow and bear fruit.

I have planted it in spiritual soil that has a time flow rate 20 times faster. In another three months outside, five years will have passed in that land, and it will be able to bear fruit."

Liu Jingxue could still bear to wait for a few more months.

“That stuff can’t be eaten, so after we harvest a batch, we’ll transplant it to that mountain.

It is better not to use the time-accelerated spiritual soil to plant these, but to use it to plant medicinal herbs, especially those that require a longer age."

"Okay, master," Tuanzi agreed readily.

This space was originally used to grow spiritual medicines, and it was best at growing spiritual medicines. Later, as the spiritual energy outside became increasingly thin, it learned how to grow herbs.

If it is not specifically requested by the owner, it is unwilling to grow vegetables or trees, and it does so simply to satisfy the owner's appetite.

However, the current master is still just a mortal body. It is inevitable to absorb energy from food to maintain the body's needs. It is not that rigid.

After arranging the mountain products, the next step is to prepare the bacon.

Liu Jingxue has already marinated the meat that was distributed to her and is drying it in the sun, but it is far from enough.

Although she had decided to go into the mountains with Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao to pickle some prey and send them to various places, Liu Jingxue knew that the taste of that meat was far inferior to that produced in her own space.

The ones to Beijing were sent by Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, and she only provided some mountain products, but for Grandpa Zhang and eldest brother, she planned to replace them with bacon made from animals produced in the space.

As for those that are replaced, just keep them and trade them to Sister Jin and her colleagues slowly.

The pigs, cows and sheep raised in the space have now multiplied. She plans to slaughter a few of each, store some in the warehouse fresh for herself to eat slowly, and pickle some into bacon and send it to Grandpa Zhang and her eldest brother.

Now that the decision has been made, Liu Jingxue and Tuanzi, each carrying a spirit, started to get busy in the space.

Although they could kill pigs, cows, sheep, divide the meat and marinate the meat with their minds and did not need to do it themselves, there were still many things to deal with, so the two of them were still very busy.

After much difficulty, everything was finally settled and the afternoon was almost over.

This time, Liu Jingxue killed two pigs, a cow, four sheep, two deer, and a lot of chickens, ducks, rabbits, and fish. It was really a lot.

Half of them have been pickled and will be dried after a few days of salting, while the other half have been stored in the warehouse.
