135 Harvesting Locusts


Only after asking did they realize that they were going to get some black locusts.


After learning black locusts could be used to make shampoo, they were also very interested.


“There are a few black locust trees on the mountainside. Aunt w.a.n.g, if you’re interested, we can do it together. After we make the shampoo, we’ll share some with you.” Lin Xiaoyue said with a smile.


“Sure!” Aunt w.a.n.g immediately agreed.


Then, they stopped looking for wild vegetables and followed Lin Xiaoyue and Liu s.h.i.+.


When they got there, Aunt w.a.n.g finally knew what tree Lin Xiaoyue was talking about.


“So this thing is black locust. It looks edible, but it’s not. In the past, everyone thought that these trees were useless,” Aunt w.a.n.g said.


“Hehe, it’s not edible, but it has other uses. It can be used to wash hair and clothes. The spine is also a medicinal herb.”


“Are you talking about these spines?” Aunt w.a.n.g looked at the spines on the locust tree in disbelief.


“These things are very painful and poisonous. When Shuanzi came to the mountain when he was young, he was p.r.i.c.ked and the swelling only subsided after a few days.”


Liu s.h.i.+ and w.a.n.g Erya were also suspicious.


But they didn’t stop. While harvesting the black locusts, they also picked up some spines that fell on the ground.


“Yes, it’s poisonous, but it’s also a medicinal herb,” Lin Xiaoyue said with a smile.


“It can be used to treat ulcers, swelling, rashes and other diseases. It can be used topically and orally.”


“It’s that powerful?” Aunt w.a.n.g was surprised.


“Yes. It’s just too hard to harvest. Otherwise, I would take some with me and sell them at the pharmacy in town.”


Aunt w.a.n.g’s eyes instantly lit up.


They can be sold?


“Okay! I’ll take some back later and go to the pharmacy in town!” She immediately said.


Liu s.h.i.+ looked at the spines in a different light.


There were many black locust trees in the mountain.


If this thing could really be exchanged for money, they could have extra income from selling these.


Lin Xiaoyue smiled at Aunt w.a.n.g’s words.


“Don’t get your hopes up. The pharmacy usually only accepts processed medicinal herbs. If you don’t know how to process them, they might not take them. Even if they do, it’s hard to estimate the price.” Lin Xiaoyue continued, “and this thing is not easy to deal with. If you’re not careful, you might be p.r.i.c.ked.”


It was true that the pharmacy rarely bought unprocessed medicinal materials, but the processing of black locust spines was quite simple. If the quant.i.ty was large, they might buy them.


However, it wasn’t easy to harvest them, so it was not easy money.


After hearing Lin Xiaoyue’s words, Liu s.h.i.+ lost her interest.


However, Aunt w.a.n.g’s eyes were still burning as she looked at the locust spines.


“Tsk, what’s there to be afraid of? The important thing is that we can exchange them for money,” Aunt w.a.n.g said.


Their family didn’t have much more land than the Liu family. Usually, they relied on Shuanzi’s father to work at the town’s dock to support the family.


She and Erya did not have any talent in embroidery, so they could not earn money to support the family like Liu s.h.i.+.


Seeing that Shuanzi was at the age when he should be getting married, she, as his mother, was anxious.


Lin Xiaoyue didn’t pay much attention to Aunt w.a.n.g’s words. She put down the basket, turned it over, and stood on it so that she could get the locust that was high up.


“Aiya, be careful!” When Liu s.h.i.+ saw this, she quickly went over to help her.


“Hehe, it’s fine, mom!”


“The tree is too tall. I’ll go make a hook later!” Lin Xiaoyue said as she removed a locust.
