    Dong Shihao¡¯s messages were sent quickly, one after another.

    "When today's rich people get old, they just think about all kinds of fun things, such as playing with crickets, gambling on stones, collecting wood, and others collecting animal specimens, etc. Wenwanwanwalnuts  It¡¯s one of the milder ways to play.¡±

    "This thing is purely about how long you watch the market. The longer you look at the market, the rounder the walnuts will become, like beautiful jade. The grandfather of a friend of mine has a pair of big red lion heads in his hands. They are an old thing from the Qing Dynasty. He has been playing with them for hundreds of years.  Time, whether you look at it or touch it, looks like a piece of blood-red jade. The old man is in good health, and he tells everyone that he relies on this lion head to prolong his life."

    "Now not only the elderly, but also the middle-aged and young people are starting to play Wenwan walnuts, because there is no threshold for this thing. Even ordinary walnuts can be played. Often holding a plate, it can activate the meridians and promote blood circulation.  I have spent money to buy blood stasis before. I remember spending 50,000 yuan to buy two lion heads, which were still in their initial state. After a while, they became boring and I don¡¯t know where to throw them.¡±

    "Let me talk about betting on walnuts. Normal walnut trees are not good enough for this. You need old trees, and then bid and auction the walnuts. No matter what the quality of the walnuts you buy is, you have to recognize it yourself.  Yes, it¡¯s just like gambling on stones, but it doesn¡¯t cost as much money.¡±

    "Listen to what you mean, this walnut tree is more than a hundred years old, so it is the best raw material. There are not many trees of this age these days. If you want to bid, I can help you contact someone.  , Nowadays, many old men want to buy a few high-quality walnuts, and they have formed a tendency of comparison, just like children. If it happens, I will tell you."

    "Can!"

    Jiang Tian replied that even if this matter is completed, the bidding is just a sudden idea. It would be best if it succeeds. If it fails, there will be no loss for him.

    There are really many good things in the mountains and forests. Jiang Tian found that he should still explore more, maybe he might encounter something good.

    Grandpa finished peeling the sweet potatoes and came down from the bungalow.

    "Today we will deal with walnuts and bark. The bark we got before has been dried in the sun. If we don't grind it into bark powder quickly, it will spoil."

    Jiang Tian nodded.

    They had eaten breakfast, while Jiang Tian and Agui were processing the walnuts. This mainly involved grinding off the green skin on the outside and then drying them. Since they didn't have the tools at hand, it was relatively slow to do.

    Grandpa took a roller, put the bark into it, and began to grind it continuously. The dried bark itself was relatively brittle. After being continuously crushed by the stone roller, it soon broke into small pieces.  chunks, and then gradually become smaller.

    It didn¡¯t take long for the bark in the roller to become a large particle. It will take some time to reach the state of bark powder.

    Grandpa said with a smile: "In the past, I used this thing as a life-saver, but now it has become a new thing. When it is ready, I will steam some steamed buns for you to eat. As for the taste, I can't guarantee it."  , after all, it is bark powder, you may not be used to it."

    "It must be delicious. There is no dish that is not delicious when cooked by grandpa!" Jiang Tian said.

    While he was talking, he was recalling the changes in the land statue after returning to the village.

    When he saw the evil tiger in the underground boxing ring, Jiang Tian's inner thought was that killing the opponent would be good for him, but it had not been reflected at that time. When he came to the village, there was a strange movement from the statue.

    It turns out that killing the evil tiger gave Jiang Tian a trace of merit power. This power did not fall directly on Jiang Tian, ??but fell on the statue to help suppress those demonic beings.

    If a large amount of merit power can be obtained, the suppression effect will be better.

    "It's just that the power of merit is not so easy to obtain. It doesn't mean that you can just find a criminal and kill it. Anyway, there are a lot involved in it, and even Jiang Tian doesn't understand it.

    With this effort, the bark powder in the roller is already very fine, but it is still much worse than flour.

    Grandpa took out a sieve with small holes and put the bark powder in it and sifted it. The plastic sheet below was covered with fine flour, and the sieve was full of impurities in the bark powder.

    Grind these impurities again and then sieve them. After repeating this three times, the remaining impurities are completely impossible to grind, unless you use a machine.

    It¡¯s not the end of it, those trees that have been driedThe skin powder was placed in the roller again. After grinding for a while, it was sifted twice more, and then it was finally completed.

    They got a lot of bark, but the amount of bark powder they finally sifted out was not too much. If they steamed steamed buns, according to the appetite of ordinary people, it might be no problem to make a meal. People like Jiang Tian's family, just  I'm afraid it's not enough.

    Grandpa took the bark and continued to grind it. When they had finished one-tenth of the walnuts, grandpa ground out the poplar bark and locust bark.

    "It looks like there's quite a lot of bark. After being ground into powder, it's really not that much. That means Shihao isn't here, otherwise it wouldn't be enough to eat. But I promised him to let him try the bark powder.  Whatever the flavor of the pasta is, keep some of it, and after a while, go back to the mountains to get some bark." Grandpa said, not forgetting Dong Shihao yet.

    Jiang Tianze sent the cleaned walnuts to the bungalow, right next to the sweet potato peels, where they could be eaten after drying for a while.

    "Woof woof!"

    Suddenly, there was a big black cry outside, very urgent and anxious.

    Jiang Tian looked over from the bungalow, and Dahei ran over from a distance.

    Hearing the noise, grandpa hurriedly came out of the kitchen.

    "Something must have happened to those old sows. I asked Dahei to look at it. It screamed so anxiously. Could it be that the old sow was about to give birth?" Grandpa said, trotting out.

    Jiang Tian jumped down from the bungalow and followed his grandfather. Agui didn't have time to wash his hands and followed him with a hand of green.

    They came to the pig pen and found that the wild boars inside were shouting wildly and were very agitated. They even hit the pig pen. Some of the walls were broken and they themselves were slightly injured.

    The old sows were lying on the ground, moaning, their voices were shrill, as if they were crying, and their bellies were like waves. It was obvious that the little cubs inside were kicking the old sows.  Sow's belly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
