Space Food Storage: Daily Travel
Chapter 45: Escaping from Famine and Continuing on the Road
Liu Shinan returned to the cave very late.
Liu Yuhan had already entered the space to work. He still had two acres of land to plant, so he'd finish it all tonight. If he couldn't, he could work later and sleep in the morning.
She plans to use the extra acre of land near her vegetable garden, created after the earthquake, to grow medicinal herbs. Medicinal herbs are so important in life! This epidemic has deepened her understanding of this.
She sorted the herbal seeds she'd bought at the pharmacy and prepared them for the potion. Germination methods for different medicinal seeds varied, so if she wasn't sure, she'd search Baidu, take notes, and memorize them. Only when something was memorized did it feel truly safe.
She has so much to remember. So she forces herself to memorize something today or at a certain time. Once she's memorized, she reviews it again after a while. That way, she won't forget or get it mixed up.
People only have one heart, and it is good enough to do one thing at a time. Trying too many things at the same time is sometimes not worth the effort.
The next morning, the villagers got busy.
Liu Yuhan and his companions had brought two bags of rice last night, and Liu Shinan had already told the village chief to cook something delicious this morning. A full stomach would give them the strength to continue their journey. The prefect had rewarded them with food, so they had food for the time being.
Having food gave everyone motivation. They divided the work and bustled about, some packing their bags, some collecting the game they had hunted last night, and some making porridge.
This morning I will use a bag of rice to cook five pots of white rice porridge, and then cook a pot of pheasant stewed with chestnuts and a pot of rabbit stewed with yam.
The villagers were drooling at the thought. As expected, as long as Liu Xiaohan was around, their lives would be much better.
The Liu family's Xiaohan girl they were thinking about was still asleep! Her back ached, farming was too tiring! She didn't even hear the alarm clock. After everyone finished eating, Liu Yuhan slowly woke up.
Seeing that she looked very tired, her family members brought her food and asked her to eat.
Alas, this body is still a child and is still developing. I absolutely cannot do such high-intensity work in the future!
Everyone left the cave where they had lived for more than 20 days and headed towards the next city.
Passing by a small village, Liu Yuhan gave the village chief 400 ordinary masks and taught him how to use them. He then asked the villagers to put them on and cover their faces properly.
Take my parents to get food and ask the villagers to hurry on.
After everyone had gone far away, Liu Yuhan's parents led the horses and followed him to a spacious and secluded place. Liu Yuhan took out a carriage frame from the space, and Liu Shinan and his wife harnessed the carriage together.
Well, this simple open carriage frame really doesn't fit the horse. It feels out of place. The wind is also resisting. There's no way I didn't grab the carriage.
All the brown rice was taken out from the space. The bandits had left two bags for the village before, and now there were only three bags left. Five more bags of rice were taken out. Of the three hundred bags of rice grown in the space, in addition to the ones they consumed at home and those given to the villagers, 20 bags were left for Yiyang City, so a total of one-tenth was used.
Five bags of rice, three bags of brown rice, plus one bag of rice from the village, two bags of brown rice, that's five bags of brown rice and six bags of white rice. The cart is almost full. I was going to put a water tank in there, but there's no room left. Liu Yuhan has already taken back all the water tanks on the mountain.
The next city is Qingyang, which is located in the middle of the north-south divide. It's about 300 kilometers from Yiyang, so it should be there in another 10 days. (The distance is shown in kilometers for convenience.)
Liu Yuhan rode a horse, while Liu Shinan and his wife drove the carriage. Soon they caught up with the others.
Liu Shinan gave the grain to the village chief and divided it into several ox carts, because he was worried about his horses.
The village chief was so happy to see so much food that he no longer felt sorry for his old friend.
Liu Yuhan dismounted, carried Xiao Si and Xiao Wu onto the carriage, and then helped Liu Yun and Liu Yao onto the carriage as well. Later, Liu Guang and Liu Lu would take their turns. They took some of the things out of the wheelbarrows of the old man and Liu Yang and placed them on the carriage so that everyone could relax.
Liu Shinan……
blast………
My grandparents rode on my uncle's ox cart, while the elders and those with mobility issues rode on the two ox carts from Xiaoshi Village.
Walk, walk, walk…
At noon on the third day, they passed the gate of Yiyang City and continued walking. There were not many people along the way except their refugee group. Due to the earthquake, the retreat was blocked, and many of the refugee groups in front were in Yiyang City.
The road was easy to travel on. With ox carts and horse carriages, the Liu family had a much easier time.
Liu Yuhan added some water to the village water tank from time to time and walked like this for another 10 days.
At the hour of Xu, they finally arrived at Qingyang City. The village chief decided to camp outside the city for one night and go into the city to purchase supplies tomorrow.
Liu Yuhan went into the space to prepare dinner for her family. She first thawed the shrimp and prepared to cook shrimp porridge tonight.
The seafood I bought is finally ready to eat. Liu Yuhan lives in a coastal city and likes to go to the seafood market when she has nothing to do.
Occasionally, on weekends, I would go to the beach and buy some fresh seafood when the fishermen came back from fishing.
She likes this kind of atmosphere, which is full of freshness and energy. She also likes eating seafood, especially shrimp porridge and fish porridge.
In the city where she lived before, there were all kinds of noodles, porridges, cold dishes, and fruit salads, and life was very convenient.
Nearly three months had passed since she'd traveled through time, and she still occasionally reminisced about her past life. It was truly etched in her bones.
While cooking porridge, I checked the crops in the space.
The corn was growing well, and the rows of corn stalks stood in neat rows, with golden yellow corn, sometimes with two or three corns on each stalk, sometimes with as many as five or six.
Generally, in order to obtain a better harvest, some of the corn with multiple ears will be broken off, because the development of corn with multiple ears will be slower, requiring more nutrients, and it will not be easy to fertilize and bear fruit, and finally the ears will be poorly developed, have bald tips, and empty shells.
Liu Yuhan planned to let the corn age naturally to save seeds, and was reluctant to pick and eat the tender corn.
The three acres of rice next to the corn are also growing well.
I have to say that the various melons I planted in the vegetable garden were larger than ordinary melons because they were high-yield seeds from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
Winter melons and pumpkins, in particular, are as large as barrels. The most common fruit is the chayote, with an astonishing yield! No wonder there's a saying that goes, "One chayote is enough for a whole village."
From the bamboo houses, one row after another crowded together. It is very pleasant.
Liu Yuhan only waited until they were at their most mature, or when some were older, to pick them, especially winter melons and pumpkins. After picking, they were piled up in the warehouse, so that the vegetables grown in the space would not spoil.
He picked a cucumber, washed it casually and started to eat it. It was crispy and sweet. Liu Yuhan squinted his eyes in delight.
There is an acre of medicinal field next to the vegetable field, some of the crops are still being cultivated, and some have already been transplanted.
The species include astragalus, honeysuckle, rehmannia, gastrodia, stemona, isatis root, polygonatum, etc.
She also planted bamboo ginseng and black ginseng. Speaking of these two seeds, she spent a lot of money to buy them from Yunnan online, and kept them in her space for half a year without planting them.
Bamboo Panax notoginseng has unique efficacy and has been listed as a conventional medicine in recent years. It combines the efficacy of Panax notoginseng and ginseng in one, and is known as the king of herbs. It has a wide range of uses.
It primarily tonifies and strengthens the body, relieves cough and expectoration, disperses blood stasis and stops bleeding, and reduces swelling and relieves pain. It is used to treat weakness after illness, loss of appetite, consumptive cough, hemoptysis, hematemesis, epistaxis, hematochezia, hematuria, retrograde menstruation, metrorrhagia, bleeding due to trauma, masses, blood stasis, amenorrhea, and postpartum abdominal pain caused by yin stasis. It also treats injuries from falls, rheumatic joint pain, carbuncle swelling, hemorrhoids, and snake bites. Its effects are truly powerful.
Black ginseng is also called "wild Panax notoginseng, black Panax notoginseng".
Black ginseng has the benefits of clearing heat and relieving sore throats, replenishing qi and yin, and relieving pain. It is primarily used as an adjunct treatment for sore throats, sore mouth and tongue, and joint pain. It also combats fatigue, enhances immunity, replenishes vital energy, soothes the mind, improves intelligence, and promotes fluid production. It is often used to treat conditions such as weakness, thirst due to loss of body fluids, palpitations and insomnia, blood deficiency, and sallow complexion, as well as lung deficiency, wheezing, and coughing.
It plays an important auxiliary role in nourishing and prolonging the life of women after childbirth, the elderly and those recovering from serious illness.
Black ginseng is extremely valuable because of its strict requirements for the growing environment and its high medicinal value. Wild black ginseng is difficult to find and is even more expensive than gold.
Premium black ginseng is ten times more valuable than regular ginseng.
This is a lot of money grown in space.
