Seeing you when you were young can still bring back memories.

I still remember when I was a child, my grandfather once said that these little bugs are called the local slaughter cows.

But in fact, its scientific name should be called ant lion, commonly known as earthen cow, barb, sand monkey, sand cow, golden sand cow, sand chicken, old cage, sand turtle, ground bull, shrink or old, etc.

Although this slutty cow looks extremely ugly and even looks a little disgusting, it is actually a medicinal material with high medicinal value.

It treats such as hypertension, urinary stones, gallstones, osteomyelitis, vasculitis, malaria, constipation, diarrhea, indigestion in children, bamboo and wood thorns, foreign bodies cannot enter the flesh, and fractures. It is used externally to treat otitis media, carbuncles, and unknown swelling and toxins.

In addition, roasting the ground slaughter beef and grinding it into powder can also treat knife wounds.

This is exactly what the saying goes: People should not behave like a person, and the sea water should not be measured.

These little bugs are the same. They seem extremely ugly, but they have more functions.

"It's a pity to sweep away." Liu Qingshan would remember the scene when his grandfather collected these ugly insects when he was young, and couldn't help but say, "Just catch them all and bake them dry."

"What are you doing with these things?" Wu Cuimei said angrily, "Didn't you say you want to renovate the house? Do you still have time to make these things now?"

"Oh, it won't take long, and it's not a short time." Liu Qingshan ignored his mother and found a glass bottle with smooth walls on his own, then quickly pulled out the funnel-shaped pit with a small stick, picked out all the dead cows inside, and put them in the bottle.

After an hour, I had a great harvest. Although I didn’t fill the entire glass bottle, I caught about a hundred of them.

The amount of diarrhea is not large. For example, treating malaria, you can just use eleven diarrhea. Swallow eleven diarrhea with wine and take it once half an hour before malaria occurs. Generally speaking, chronic malaria can be cured in about one week.

To treat malaria in children, only seven are needed, stir-fry them into powder and swallow them in boiling water.

After installing the dead cows, Liu Qingshan even put them on the window like a treasure, and repeatedly reminded his mother not to throw away his bottle.

Seeing his son's careless appearance, Wu Cuimei was really angry and not easy to get angry.

Fortunately, Liu Qingshan quickly realized that his mother's face was wrong, so he quickly continued to work.

While cleaning every corner of the house, I moved some extra things to the kitchen and left.

After a whole day, the huge house was finally cleaned up.

During dinner in the evening, Liu Qingshan gave his own plan: "Dad, mom, I think so. I think there are many rooms in our house, but basically each one is very small. There are only a few people in our house, and it is useless to have so many rooms. I think, let's just block the extra door and connect the two rooms into one room. In this way, the remaining seven large and small rooms in the house can be converted into three large rooms."

"Change it into three large rooms?" Wu Cuimei frowned and said reluctantly, "If you change this, if you get married, have children, and have guests at home, where will the guests stay?"

"Mom, this is not simple. Let's change the wooden building and all of it will be changed into a room soon."

"The wooden building is also changed?" His son's words scared Wu Cuimei, "How to change the wooden building?"

The wooden buildings on the second floor have basically not been used much, that is, the wooden buildings on the main hall are used as rice barn warehouses, and the rest of the wooden buildings are basically for raising mice.

"Stop messing around, how to change the wooden building." Liu Yuanhe also disagreed, "It's so inconvenient to climb up and down the wooden building. Besides, we only have a wooden ladder."

"Dad, if I renovate the wooden building, I will definitely install modern stairs on each wooden building. It is impossible to use the old wooden ladders from the past. Moreover, I think that once the wooden building in our house is well modified, it will definitely be more comfortable to live in than on the first floor."

"How to install stairs? Our house is not a cement building."

"I don't want to install cement stairs. The current technology is not the previous technology. There are many things that can be used to make stairs now, including steel, aluminum alloy, wood, and various new materials. Moreover, the lifespan of these materials is basically permanent, and it will only be better than the broken wooden ladder in our house and will not be worse than it."

Liu Qingshan's words made the couple feel a little upset.

Although they support their son in renovating the house, if even the wooden building on the second floor is to be renovated, the project will not only be huge, but it will also cost a lot of money.

Seeing that his parents didn't say anything, Liu Qingshan quickly said, "My parents, don't worry about money. Think about it, if the first floor is neatly made, but the second floor is full of rat nests, it would be the same as if it hadn't changed. Since we decided to live in this old house forever, we should not only change it, but also make up the places to be renovated, and all the places to be renovated will be renovated. In this way, the house will last longer and we can live more comfortably."

"How much does it cost?" Wu Cuimei asked.

Liu Qingshan smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry about money. Anyway, I will definitely make it back after spending this money. Moreover, I promise you that it will definitely not exceed 50,000 yuan."

Of course, this is a lie to me. If you want to make a big change of a house, 50,000 yuan is not possible.

However, in order to appease my parents, sometimes I have to tell such a kind lie.

After having a son's words, the couple nodded. Wu Cuimei said, "Since that's the case, then change it. Anyway, the first floor has been changed, and the second floor is not short of the money."

"That's it." Liu Qingshan said angrily, "Anyway, you don't have to worry about anything. You don't have to worry about money."

"That's it." Liu Yuanhe said, "As long as you have money, you can change whatever you like, but don't just collapse the house."

"Ph, ph, crow's mouth."

Things are agreed upon, and things will be easier afterwards.

When renovating a house, the first step is to expand the modified and expanded doors first, and all the doors that should be blocked are blocked.

To do these things, you need to use a lot of cement, steel, sand, stones and other things.

This time, Liu Qingshan would not go to the river to catch sand by himself, but instead ordered the bosses in the town to deliver all the goods.

Because the ramp in front of the yard has been repaired, all kinds of materials can be directly pulled into the yard.

While the materials were transported, Liu Qingshan and his father took out the bedroom doors of the three mini-rooms and several bricks next to the door frames.

In this way, the door, which was originally only more than half a meter wide, became a gate with a width of about two meters.

Afterwards, an arched cement column was built into the door with cement steel bars to form a large arch.

The three large arches completely unite the three particularly small rooms with the connected large rooms. In this way, after the house is modified, the small rooms inside can be placed in beds, and the large rooms outside can be placed in wardrobes and other things. In this way, the layout of the room has been completely changed.

Although it seems easy to make these arches, it took the whole family three days.

Because either you don’t do it, you will definitely do the best.

On the afternoon of the third day, looking at the three completed arches, Wu Cuimei couldn't stop laughing, "Why were people in the past so stupid? Do you think there are so many rooms that need to be used for tops?"

"What do you know?" Liu Yuanhedao, "In the past, there were many people. If the third brother didn't come to the house and stayed at home to get a wife, then this house would have to live in two families. In addition, the old man had more than a dozen people. Even if there were seven or eight rooms, it would be barely enough to live in."

"There's no need to be such a small person." Wu Cuimei now looked down on the small room we used to live in. "Look, it looks like the small room we lived in before. If we put a bed, cabinet and table, we can't really stand in person. It's hard for both of us to turn around after entering."

"Oh, I don't know what people used to think." Liu Yuanhedao, "The rooms inside are so small, and the rooms outside are so big. If the two rooms are equally large, each room can be more than ten square meters, and it will not be that small."

Liu Yuanhe's words illustrate a problem, that is, after the renovation, the two rooms are connected by a large arch into one room, the area of ​​this large room divided into an indoor and outdoor rooms is about 20 square meters.

This is definitely one of the rare large rooms in Xiaoshan Village. Even those newly built small Western-style buildings now have an area of ​​only about ten square meters.

Thinking that he could live in a huge room in the future, Wu Cuimei had already started to fantasize.

"Since the room has been changed, I will definitely not be able to live in a wooden bed in the future. I have to change the big bed." Wu Cuimei said in a longing, "And, I think the cabinet is a little small now, so I have to add another cabinet."

Liu Qingshan laughed and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will buy these for you. Not only will I buy you a big bed and a big cabinet, but I will also have a TV in your room at that time. In this way, when it's cold, you will lie on the bed and watch TV."

"Hahaha, that's fine." Wu Cuimei had forgotten about the money now.

Just as he was talking, Liu Qingshan's cell phone rang.

When I opened it, it turned out to be a strange number.

After answering the phone in confusion, a slightly excited male voice came from the other end: "Hey, hello, are you the boss selling azaleas?"

Liu Qingshan replied in confusion: "Ah, yes, I am, you?"

"Haha, it's great. I thought I had called the wrong phone. We've seen it before at the flower show. My friend spent 100,000 yuan to buy your azalea. Do you still remember?"

"Ah, it turns out it's you. Of course I remember, how could I not remember such a big thing?" Liu Qingshan walked out of the room, came to the yard, and asked, "I wonder what you are asking me for?"

He didn't want his parents to know that his azaleas were sold for 100,000 yuan.

The other party said, "That's right. We all like your azalea very much. However, last time at the flower show, you only had one azalea, so we couldn't buy it. Now, after so many days, we saw that the azalea you sold to my friend was still very healthy and beautiful, so we also wanted to buy one."

"Ha?" This happiness came too suddenly.

Liu Qingshan was not prepared at all, but the other party was caught off guard and said he wanted to buy azaleas.

"Why, there are no azaleas in your house?"

"Yes, yes, yes," Liu Qingshan hurriedly said, "I have many more in my family, and you have all the specifications."

"Haha, don't be so full of words." The other party smiled.

"I'm serious." Liu Qingshan said seriously, "The azaleas in my house are all big and small, it depends on what specifications you want."

"Haha, if it is an ordinary azalea, I will definitely not ask you for it. I can find it directly in our local seedling and flower shop. I look for you, so I naturally want to be unique."

“Exceptional?”

"Yes, I want a tree that is healthy enough, beautiful enough, and has a spirit of aura. It must have a healthy body and agile spirit. It cannot be the kind of grafted seedlings that can be seen everywhere in artificial nurseries."

Liu Qingshan sweated: "Healthy, beautiful, and agile. Isn't this a very ordinary azalea?"

The other party was stunned for a moment and laughed: "Haha, if that's the case, please make sure to find a rhododendron that you think is the best looking for me."

"No problem." Liu Qingshan hung up the phone and found a rhododendron that he thought was very good from several large azaleas in the yard. He took a video and sent it to the man with the photos.

After the man saw the photos and videos of the azalea on WeChat, he was so excited that he sent a video call to Liu Qingshanfa on the spot. As soon as he answered, he hurriedly said: "I want this one, I want this one."

Liu Qingshan: Why are you so excited? Isn’t this just an ordinary azalea?

He smiled and said, "No problem, boss, then you can book a time to pick up the goods. I'll send you the address."

"No, no, no," the man refused, "I really don't have time lately. How about you send it to me?"

"Send it to you?"

"Yes, I'm in the provincial capital. If you drive there, it will only take a few hours."

"It's not a problem to send it. The question is, how much can you give me this azalea?" Liu Qingshan thought to himself that if the price exceeds 50,000, it's okay to send it. But if he can't even give it 50,000, let alone send it, he doesn't want to pay attention to him.

Because, although this azalea is not as tall and beautiful as the last exhibition, it is only a little inferior. Even if it cannot be sold for 100,000 yuan, Liu Qingshan thinks that 70,000 yuan, or even 80,000 yuan or 80,000 yuan or 90,000 yuan should be sold.

Even if the price of 80,000 or 90,000 is too high and no one wants it, if it is less than 50,000, there is no need to take action at all.
