Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

Chapter 4 Inventory of personal belongings
That night, Zhang Yong began to organize all the belongings he was carrying in the car.

First, he drove the off-road pickup truck, two bright flashlights, and a home-made electric wand.

Then there is a domestic mobile phone, a portable camera prepared for shooting, a set of drones, and a matching high-definition telescope for observation.

There is a foldable and portable solar charging panel on the roof of the car, which can store 1.5 kilowatt hours of electricity when worn with a mobile power supply.

A small projector, three towels, toothbrush and toothpaste, a few rolls of toilet paper, 2 packs of wet wipes, and some sundries.

In addition, there are 2 small buckets, a first aid kit, and an outdoor induction cooker.

This is your complete set of equipment.

Fortunately, it was just a small rollover and nothing was broken.

In terms of food, there are a few cucumbers, a bag of tomatoes, a large watermelon, and two boxes of mineral water, all of which are used to prevent heatstroke.

Some snacks bought at the gas station supermarket, bread, ham sausages and the like.

There is also a big bag of spicy skin, a local specialty that my mother ordered to buy for herself.

Well, if I had known I was going to travel through time, I would have bought two potatoes and two corn cobs!This is very productive!

Zhang Yong thought for a while and took out some well-preserved pepper seeds from the dried peppers.

Just dried, the pepper seeds are well preserved and can probably be salvaged.

No potatoes, no corn, I can tolerate it.

But it’s impossible not to have peppers.

Thanks to my mother's advice, my son can have a bag of dried chili peppers in hand. Just take out the seeds of these dried chili peppers, soak them in warm water, and wrap them in wet towels. They will germinate in a few days and then be planted in small trees. Just inside the vessel.

You can use the mineral water bottle you drink by just cutting it open.

The pepper seeds I brought here are much better than the seeds from the current source of peppers in South America. First of all, the peppers I brought here are native to Xinjiang.

After decades of cultivation, it is very suitable for local cultivation.

It is still very adaptable to the environment in Xinjiang. The country of Khwarezm should be Afghanistan, Iraq, and even some areas in Japan. The environment in these areas is not much different from that of Xinjiang.

Considering that I will have to live here for a long time in the future, these pepper seeds can easily survive.

Zhang Yong first took out a dried chili, and then used the utility scissors that came with the car to cut the dried chili into pieces.

Then very carefully peel out all the pepper seeds inside, then take out a wet towel and wrap all the pepper seeds inside.

After a few days, see if they can germinate. If they can't germinate, then remove the remaining dried peppers and put them away first. After all, you have to consider the possibility of planting failure.

Then there are some remaining food seeds. A few tender cucumbers seem difficult to grow. After all, they are cucumbers bought in the supermarket. What you want is a fresh and tender taste. The seeds inside are not fully formed, and the survival rate is still very low.

Moreover, cucumbers have now been introduced to the Central Plains. The taste may not be as good as modern cucumbers, but it is not inedible.

However, modern cucumbers do have considerable advantages over the cucumbers of this era. At least in terms of yield, they are not comparable to the cucumbers of this era.

Zhang Yong broke open a cucumber, then carefully picked out some of the fresh seeds inside, and wiped the seeds clean with a pack of dry toilet paper.Whether it can be planted, I will try it first and then say if it can’t be done. I won’t feel bad. If it is planted, it will be perfect.

However, cucumber seeds need to be dried in the shade first and kept dry, otherwise they will become moldy over time and will be difficult to store.

The same principle applies to tomatoes. Tomatoes from this era are still in South America!The few tomatoes I have are also of great use.

Zhang Yong used the same method to cut open a tomato, then took out the fresh yellow seeds inside, then wiped the pulp with dry toilet paper and stored it.

There is also a large watermelon, which should have been introduced to the Central Plains in this era. However, the watermelon of this era is definitely not as sweet and watery as the modern watermelon.

The modern watermelon could not be fully cultivated until the 19th century. If the current watermelon were grown, it would definitely be the top fruit.

Tomorrow, I will invite the Mongolian soldiers and Taoist Qiu to eat some watermelon, and then save the seeds. Even if I kill this big watermelon, I will not be able to finish it all.

In order to improve the chances of survival of these batches of seeds, Zhang Yong got out of the car and planned to look for some natural fertilizers. Once out of the grassland, natural fertilizers would be difficult to find.

There are a lot of natural dung on the prairie. Cow dung, horse dung, sheep dung and the like are everywhere. Natural dung is the best fertilizer.

So, Zhang Yong directly picked up a bucket and got out of the car, intending to collect some fresh gifts from nature.

Seeing Zhang Yong open the car door and come out carrying a white bucket, Liu Zhonglu immediately got up and ran over.

"Mr. Zhang, how can I help you? If you are thirsty, I have wine here. I don't know if you are used to drinking fresh kumiss, but it tastes a little sour."

Seeing Zhang Yong carrying such a big white bucket, Liu Zhonglu immediately thought that the gentleman was thirsty and wanted to come out to get some water, but it was difficult to find water sources on the prairie!

There are indeed many small ditches nearby, but the water in them is very dirty. If you drink it, you will easily get sick. Moreover, the grassland is not very safe at night, as ferocious beasts appear from time to time.

If they are thirsty, they can drink kumis with them. Although the taste is strong, people in the Central Plains may not be used to it, but it is still no problem to quench their thirst.

When you reach the Mongolian Station in front, you can replenish fresh water and fill the kettle.

Forget about the kumiss!It’s not like I’ve never drank this stuff before. People who grew up in Xinjiang have drank kumiss.

That thing is so sour, and it was brewed with the craftsmanship of this era, haha!I don't need to taste it to know how bad it tastes.

"No, I'm not short of water for the time being. I got off the car to find some dry cow dung, horse dung, sheep dung or the like." Zhang Yong said, those two boxes of mineral water should be able to drink for a while. of.

In this era of water, it is better to boil it before drinking, otherwise, it is easy to send yourself away directly.

"I see, there are a lot of these things. I'll wake up a few soldiers tomorrow morning and ask them to help you find them. It's not safe here at night. Sir, you'd better get some rest soon!"

"Then thank you so much, general. I wonder what the general's name is?" Zhang Yong cupped his hands and said.

After all this time, it seems that I still haven’t asked this general what his name is, but it seems that he is also a Han Chinese.

"I am Liu Zhonglu! I am the imperial physician and personal attendant of the Great Khan," Liu Zhonglu said.

All right!The gentleman finally remembered to ask his name.
