"Whatever you do, just don't tip the pot!"
One-third of the winter hunting has passed, and two-thirds are left. Fang Fang thought that he could get through it smoothly, but it was obvious that he couldn't do it now.
For the sake of force, risking one's life to save face, this is a ridiculous thing to the equation of a comfortable life in the previous life.
But the environment is different, the atmosphere is different, and if he wants to speak out against it today, not to mention the twenty or so people following him outside, the three people in front of him will all have some bad thoughts towards him.
"Hunting depends on your luck. The chances of bears and tigers are slim. You can open the mountains to the west and see if you can attract some wolves. If you are lucky, everyone will get a wolf-skin coat. If you are not lucky, it will be like that!" Xiaohu suggested.
Hunting ferocious beasts is a vision that has been rooted in the hearts of warriors since childhood.
Wolf-skin coats, tiger-skin velvet, and bear-skin pouches are only effective in keeping out the cold. The key is to convey dignity, which is an indispensable face project for those who admire military merit.
Although the Wu Dynasty did not make strict distinctions in terms of clothing and services like the Tang, Song, and Ming Dynasties, the people of the Wu Dynasty also formed a set of sayings unique to the Wu Dynasty.
Civilians are not allowed to wear wolf, tiger, bear, or lynx skins unless they are hunted by their own hands, and they must remove their heads if they wear them.
Wolf skins, except for the two solid colors of silver and white, can be worn by the descendants of meritorious deeds at will.
Tiger skins are not made into ready-made clothes, but are mostly hung as decorations and laid in the main hall of the Wu family. Without a tiger skin hunted by their ancestors, the disciples of the Wu family would not be able to mix in the circle. As for the Wu Xun family, promotion from the Wu family During the martial arts ceremony, the royal family would directly reward tiger skins.
Bear skins and lynx, unless hunted for personal use, have very little circulation in the market. They are generally purchased by the Ministry of Household Affairs, then processed by craftsmen from the Ministry of Works, and finally distributed by the court.
As for the plucked heads of the four beasts, they were handed over to the royal family by default. After being concocted, they were rewarded to individuals according to their merits. It can be said that whoever dares to wear the headdress of the four beasts indiscriminately cannot tell the origin. His family will not be unlucky, but his reputation will be. Gone.
The reason why Fang Fang is conspicuous and respected by everyone is not because he wears a fur coat made of silver wolf skin.
This is the symbol of the official status of the official of the Hundred Households of the Office of the Official Documents. I don’t know, but I think it is the shadow of the family. The origins are not simple.
If you can't get good furs through normal channels, you have to rely on yourself.
There were no such things in winter hunting in previous years, but they happened this year. It was probably because Fang Fang's silver wolf fur made people jealous, which made other people think of attacking the four beasts in the mountains.
"Okay, we've been around the mountains to the west many times, and we know the trails and animal trails by heart. I'll have people set up some traps later, and the wolf dog urine will be concentrated and sprinkled around the camp!"
It's better to comb than to block. In the thirty-person group, there are many people who have received special instructions, but there are also about ten people in Yeluzi. Given the opportunity, if there is more internal pressure, the problem should not be too big.
After all, the person who can be assigned here to protect the equation, without the equation, who doesn't have a few animal furs symbolizing martial arts in his hands?
Not to mention others, the Li brothers themselves are not qualified to wear silver wolf skins, but if they go out wearing white wolf skins, there will be no problem at all.
"I have no opinion!"
Xiaohu, the second brother said it, and Li Yanting naturally had no objection. If this incident hadn't happened, he wouldn't have had any plans for this winter hunt.
"Since it's left to luck, let's see if luck is with us. We'll set up a trap and get some honey back at the same time!" Fang Fang didn't bother to care, his mind was still on the syrup.
Isn't it in his hands to decide whether active hunting will be fruitful or not?
Failure to hunt is due to a lack of luck. After all, you want to think about it. In the end, you actually get it. How many people will lose their stomachs for the sake of face? Reality and life give in. Will the skin you peel off in the end have to be sold to Fang Fang?
People, even before they succeed, they will think wildly!
"It's hard to find wild bee nests, but if you look carefully, you should be able to catch one or two'!"
Li Yanting has already found three beehives for Fang Fang and has a clear understanding of the situation in the forest.
"If you can't find it, just exchange it. There will definitely be a competition later. Let them find it. I'll exchange it with money. A pound of wild honey is three cents of silver. You can take as much as you want!"
Natural sweetness, each has its own taste and maintains the same taste, it must be fake.
Now that the sweetness ratio is known, let’s determine the flavor.
Looking for a better flavor is not to buy a better product, but to create a reputation. Birch and maple trees are planted too widely. Once the technology is promoted, the secret of slow cooking will never be kept.
Afterwards, most of the time, just like drying salt, the areas are divided and the details are left to the people. They are collected uniformly according to the area and finally distributed with sugar stamps.
If Fang Fang wants to capture top profits in this market, a unified and unique flavor is indispensable.
There are too few finished products at present, so try them one by one. Then try it with honey that is more widely accepted, pick out the flavor that is most acceptable, and then find a way to match it.
Looking first and third was the secret to Fang Fang's step-by-step climb to a management position in his previous life. He died suddenly. In an industry where he became more popular as he got older, he could still go higher.
"After the honey comes out of the mountain, it will only cost a little over three yuan per kilogram, but it is difficult to carry things. If you charge me at this price, hundreds of kilograms should be no problem!" Li Yanting thought for a while and assured.
One tael of silver is worth ten cents, and one penny is worth one hundred copper coins. This is the ratio determined by the officials of various countries.
In fact, copper coins are mixed, ranging from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty. In addition, the six kingdoms were dissolved and recast. The style and weight of copper coins are extremely difficult to unify.
When it comes to the people, the ratio of one hundred to one is obviously unacceptable. Under normal circumstances, one piece of silver can be exchanged for about one hundred and twenty Wen in Tai'an City.
Three coins, three hundred and sixty Wen, more than twice the gray sugar, the key is that it does not need to be transported out of the mountain.
This price is acceptable in the city, let alone in the mountains.
"There is no limit on the number of pounds, the key is not to mix them together!"
The wild beehive itself is not big, and the northern beehive is even smaller. The equation requires flavor, and the mixing has to be mixed by his hands. Even if the source is mixed, he still has fun.
"Sir, don't worry. I've been watching it these past few days. I know how to do it. Next time the smoke rises, I will definitely get it for you in good quality and quantity!"
Wild honey is expensive per unit, but it also depends on what it is compared to.
The winter hunting is over, and the road out of the mountains is not easy to walk. There is only a limited amount of mountain goods that can be carried out by one person and one horse. Unless they don't get any good things, most people will not go out with honey.
"Okay, don't say much, just go and do your own thing. I'll tell you something in the afternoon!"
This winter break is over, next year, the Li brothers will be his suppliers of milk powder and butter, and Xiaohu will also be supported by him. He is uncultured. Every time he has a plan, he has to explain it. He cannot reflect on it. How can that work?
Therefore, there are things to do and classes to attend, even if they want to go to the door, they will not be left alone.
