Man Bao was not in a hurry to clean it up, but took a knife to pick out a lot of meat to look at. She smelled it, but she didn't dare to try the medicine herself.
Bai Shan seemed to see what she was thinking, and said quietly: "I heard that when Shen Nong tasted a hundred herbs, he would not only suffer from abdominal pain, but also chest pain, various pains, and even blindness."
Man Bao trembled, but refused to believe it, "Which book is it written in, why don't I know?"
Bai Shan calmly tidied up the prickly prickly pears she had dug up, put the intact ones aside, and said, "I don't remember which book it was written in, but I think that people who don't know about poisonous and medicinal properties should be able to eat food." Poisoning, right? Didn’t you say that after the body is damaged, even if it is cured, it will not be as good as before?”
Man Bao didn't remember saying this, but it was true, and she didn't dare to try it lightly.
He has already put the excavated plant meat aside, and went to clean up the remnants with Bai Shan.
She said: "It's good to try planting these, maybe you can bring them back to the capital, they are so round, they look pretty good."
Bai Shan nodded.
So he lay down on the window and rushed down, shouting hello, and asked him to prepare flower pots.
He looked back at the size of the cut pieces, and said to Daji, "Don't want a big flower pot, but a small one. Twelve."
Daji silently turned his head away.
But here is different from the capital city, it is difficult to buy pottery pots, so after shopping around twice, he found a carpenter in the town and made a wooden pot for him.
Knowing that the nobles wanted wooden basins as big as serving vegetables, the carpenter was puzzled, "Could it be too small for washing?"
Daji glanced at him, then scanned the room, and pointed to one: "The surface is about the same size as this one, but it should be deeper. We use it to grow flowers, so you have to make it as deep as possible to hold the soil."
Carpenter: "...My lord, this is a wooden bowl."
He has been a carpenter for so many years, and the merchants in the past often ask him to buy some things, such as the accompanying wooden barrels and tubs that are cracked and broken, and they basically ask him to buy or customize. This is the first time I have seen a wooden bowl customized. For flowering.
That's right, the carpenter felt that such a small thing didn't deserve to be called a basin at all.
However, the guests were generous, so it wasn't difficult, so he still accepted the order, and said, "I can get it the day after tomorrow."
Daji nodded in response, turned around and went back to report.
Man Bao already knew some of their habits from Ke Ke, and knew that they were tenacious and wouldn't die after a few days, and they could even bask in the sun and do some surface treatment.
Man Bao then and Bai Shan moved the things to the first floor, now that the sun is not too bright, they can just bask in the sun.
When Yin or came back, he happened to meet Mr. Zhuang and the others who came back from visiting the mayor's house. The two teams met at the door, and then entered the door lively. As soon as they entered the door, they saw the two of them squatting on the porch with their backs to them, with their hands in the middle. fiddling with something.
Zhou Liru rushed forward first, "Sister, what are you doing?"
Man Bao stepped aside to let them see the results of her and Bai Shan's afternoon.
Mr. Zhuang glanced at it, shook his head and turned back to the room.
Man Bao asked them, "How is it, is the mayor polite?"
Bai Erlang said: "It's a good thing you didn't go, you don't know that the mayor used to be a horse thief, he only had two glasses of wine, and then he asked Mr. Zhuang to talk about how he used to be a horse thief. Stealing things from other horse thieves, or robbing things from other cities, one-third of the people in this town used to be horse thieves, and the remaining half are people related to horse thieves."
Man Bao opened his mouth wide and asked, "Nie joined the army..."
Bai Erlang laughed loudly and said, "Nie Canjun drank with him, and talked about which nearby town was easier to fight. If it wasn't for us, Nie Canjun might stay there tonight and drink with him. .”
Bai Shan and Man Bao looked at each other and asked, "Do you still have dinner?"
Bai Erlang shook his head, "I've been eating since I entered his house, until now, I just can't take it anymore."
Liu Huan and Zhou Liru also said they would not eat.
Man Bao asked Mrs. He to cook two bowls of hangover soup.
Bai Erlang shook his hands and said in disgust: "Although I drank a glass of wine, I was not drunk. I don't drink hangover soup."
Liu Huan didn't like it either, and said he wouldn't drink it.
Bai Shan said: "It's not for you."
Bai Erlang tilted his head and thought for a while, then said "Oh" and said, "It's for Nie Canjun and Mr."
Seeing his smell of alcohol, Yin felt a little disgusted, "Go wash up first."
Bai Erlang saw it and said: "It's not on me, it's Nie Canjun, he drank too much wine, I got it on when I took him out... Hey, Nie Canjun, aren't you drunk?"
Bai Erlang stared wide-eyed at Nie Canjun turning over from the next wall.
Nie Canjun grinned at them, jumped off the wall and waved his hands energetically: "It's much more comfortable after changing clothes, Mr. Zhou, let's talk in the room."
Man Bao nodded and told Bai Erlang and the others to wash up first, then he and Bai Shan led Nie Canjun into the lobby, and then sent someone to invite Mr. Zhuang.
Bai Erlang rolled his eyes, and then he dragged Liu Huan with one hand and Yin You with the other, and stepped forward to join in the fun, washing up and so on can be done later.
Mr. Zhuang also changed his clothes and drank another cup of tea, and the alcohol smell on his body disappeared a lot.
He came out with a smile, glanced at Bai Erlang and did not speak.
Nie Canjun poured himself a cup of tea before saying, "I've heard people say that the mayor used to rob houses, but I didn't expect that nearly half of the people in this town have done similar things."
Bai Shandao: "I think they are living and working in peace and contentment now, so they probably won't do anything to passing merchants?"
Nie Canjun nodded, and said with a bit of a toothache: "We inquired, and the mayor meant that as long as we don't cause trouble, they won't do anything, and people are safe in the town, and they will protect us. The horse thieves dare not come in. They are also recognized by Suzhou, and they will pay tribute to Suzhou every year."
Having said that, everyone couldn't help turning their heads to look at Liu Huan.
His father is the long history of Suzhou, second only to the governor, these internal affairs must be in his hands first.
Liu Huan looked at them silently.
Everyone looked away, Bai Shan nodded and praised: "It's equivalent to recruiting security. It's hard for Suzhou troops to get here. This method is actually good. At least the ordinary people on the oasis are living well now, and they won't suffer from horse thieves again."
Nie Canjun nodded, his face became more serious, "The news about smallpox has changed here. This year, the number of merchants going to the west has decreased, and even the number of merchants from the Western Regions to the east has decreased by about 80%, so it is very chaotic outside. Not only the horse thieves, but also the Turkic soldiers and horses wandering from the grassland, they all want to take this opportunity to capture this oasis, and it is difficult for merchants on the road to escape their hands."
Only then did Mr. Zhuang interject slowly: "He asked if we need their protection and sent to Liangzhou, I think it's feasible."
