Chapter 669 Whimsical
Lin Hao and Wu Ruolan heard the sound and hurriedly looked back, only to see Zuo Li suddenly appearing from nowhere.
Lin Hao nodded and said: "You should understand a little bit!"
Zuo Li pointed and said, "Can you tell me why the mushroom I planted doesn't grow?"
Lin Hao asked: "What are you planting?"
Two words came out of Zuo Li's mouth: "Matsutake!"
Lin Hao was immediately shocked and looked at him dumbfounded!
Seeing his expression, although Zuo Li didn't say anything, Wu Ruolan couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"
Lin Hao shook his head and sighed: "Ignorant people are indeed fearless!"
Zuo Li's brows darkened slightly, but he still held back and said nothing.
Wu Ruolan asked in confusion: "Lin Hao, what are you talking about? What does it mean that the ignorant are fearless?"
Lin Hao asked: "Sister, do you know what matsutake is?"
"I know!" Wu Ruolan said: "I didn't know it before, but then I watched some documentary on the tip of the tongue. It said that the Tibetan girl Dolma went up to the mountain in the middle of the night to pick mushrooms, which are called matsutake mushrooms! Also, it is said that a charcoal-grilled matsutake mushroom can
It sold for 1,600 yuan!"
Lin Hao said funny: "Apart from the ones seen on TV?"
Wu Ruolan spread her hands and said, "Then I don't know!"
Lin Hao had no choice but to give her a popular science guide: "The scientific name of Matsutake is Tricholoma matsutake. It grows in alpine woodlands at an altitude of more than 3,500 meters in the cold temperate zone. There are some records in the Song Dynasty's "Jingshi Zheng Lei Urgent Materia Medica". In addition, research has proved that, Matsutake is rich in protein, including 18 kinds of amino acids, 14 kinds of essential trace elements, 49 kinds of active nutrients, 5 kinds of unsaturated fatty acids, nucleic acid derivatives, peptides and other rare elements. It also contains 3 kinds of precious active substances, respectively. It is a double-stranded matsutake polysaccharide, matsutake polypeptide and the world's unique anti-cancer substance - matsutake alcohol. It is the most precious natural medicinal fungus in the world. It is a second-level endangered species in my country!"
Wu Ruolan was a little dazed after hearing this. This guy really knows everything and knows everything! After a while, he murmured: "My brother is amazing!"
Lin Hao smiled and said very modestly: "Just average, third in the country!"
Wu Ruolan saw his stinking look and gave him a roll of her eyes, then pointed at the endless wooden frame in front of her and said, "Hey, are all the matsutake mushrooms you grow?"
Zuo Li nodded expressionlessly!
Wu Ruolan asked again: "How long have you been planting?"
Zuo Lidao: "It's been more than three years, almost four years!"
"Wow!" Wu Ruolan said excitedly: "Then you're going to make it!"
Zuo Li didn't answer, just smiled bitterly, and then looked at Lin Hao!
Lin Hao hummed softly: "If he can really cultivate matsutake, there is such a large area that he really wants to grow, but the question is, can he grow it?"
Wu Ruolan hurriedly asked Zuo Li, "Have you ever harvested these matsutake mushrooms?"
Zuo Li looked even more bitter and shook his head feebly!
Wu Ruolan asked doubtfully: "Not now, or has it never been before?"
Zuo Li shook his head again and said: "Never!"
Wu Ruolan asked puzzledly: "Why?"
Zuo Li didn't answer because he couldn't answer. If only he knew why! He could only look at Lin Hao again, who knew everything.
Lin Hao asked: "Zuo Li, who told you that you can grow matsutake mushrooms like this?"
Zuo Lidao: "Someone else!"
Lin Hao asked again: "Who else?"
Zuo Li's lips twitched, but in the end he just stopped talking!
Wu Ruolan felt something was wrong and asked, "Lin Hao, what happened?"
Lin Hao said slowly: "According to legend, after the atomic bomb attack on Hiroshima in August 1945, the only multicellular microorganism that survived was matsutake mushrooms, but so far, there is no precedent for artificial cultivation!"
Wu Ruolan was surprised and asked: "Isn't there any country?"
"No! The castle I stayed in before invested a lot of manpower and material resources in cultivating matsutake mushrooms, and even mobilized a group of scientists specializing in edible fungi research to form a team, hoping to cultivate artificial matsutake mushrooms and extract matsutake alcohol to make anti-cancer products.
medicine. But in the end, nothing was found. It cannot be copied at all!" Lin Hao pointed to the countless wooden frames in front of him and said to Zuo Li: "It is impossible to cultivate matsutake under the conditions of the laboratory. Just because he is fooling around like this,
Can we cultivate matsutake?"
Wu Ruolan murmured: "This..."
Lin Hao asked honestly and politely: "Zuo Li, are you just having a whim, or have you been deceived by others?"
Zuo Li didn't speak, but his body shook slightly and he leaned weakly on the wooden frame on the side. He was obviously hit hard and thoroughly!
Lin Hao could somewhat understand his feelings at this time. The diameter of these wood sections was almost more than forty centimeters, which meant that it was originally an almost towering tree. It had to be cut down and then sawed section by section.
Then we have to move it into the plantation from the mountain section by section, then drill holes in each section of wood, stuff them with so-called matsutake seeds, and then erect the sections section by section. How much does this cost?
All the hard work and physical effort, but the final result is nothing!
Such a result is unacceptable to anyone!
Zuo Li didn't collapse on the spot, he was undoubtedly mentally strong!
Seeing the ashen look on Zuo Li's face, even Wu Ruolan, who didn't like him, couldn't help but sympathize with him. After more than three and nearly four years of hard work, the results were in vain, and anyone else would have vomited blood!
But she didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only look at Lin Hao, obviously hoping that he would stop trying to push Zuo Li and say something nice.
Lin Hao still looked like he was still in his old well. He opened his mouth and asked slowly: "Zuo Li, have you ever told fortunes?"
Zuo Li was asked and almost wanted to roll his eyes. I'm already in such a miserable state, and you still have the mood to talk to me about these things that don't wait for food or drink? Who are you?
"No??" Lin Hao asked and answered: "But if you have had your fortune told, the fortune teller will definitely tell you that you will meet a noble person this year!"
Zuo Li was confused when he heard this, what a mess!
Lin Hao pointed at himself and said with a calm and arrogant expression: "Because that noble person is me!"
Wu Ruolan and Zuo Li: "..."
"If I hadn't come here today, this plantation of yours could have been shut down!" Lin Hao said, pointing to the endless wooden frame in front of him: "But now that I'm here, you don't have to despair, because I have a way.
It can bring you back to life!"
Zuo Li looked greatly moved and asked hurriedly: "Do you know the technology of matsutake cultivation?"
Lin Hao shook his head, "Sorry, I don't understand!"
Zuo Lidao: "You..."
"Lin Hao!" Wu Ruolan couldn't help but said angrily: "He's already like this, please do a good job and stop teasing him, can't you?"
Lin Hao spread his hands and said: "I didn't tease him, I really don't know how to cultivate matsutake mushrooms!"
Wu Ruolan said: "Then you said you have a way?"
"Why are you so impatient? I haven't even finished what I said!" Lin Hao said calmly: "Although I don't know how to cultivate matsutake, I know how to cultivate other edible fungi!"
Wu Ruolan: "Huh?"
Lin Hao raised his palm again and counted them one by one: "For example, the market price of morels is 3,000-4,000 yuan per kilogram. For example, the market price of Cordyceps militaris is 2,000-3,000 yuan per kilogram. The market price is 1,000~
Black tiger palm with a market price of 2,000 yuan per kilogram, such as truffles with a market price of 1,000 to 1,500 yuan per kilogram, hydrangeas with a market price of 800 to 1,000 yuan per kilogram, coral fungi with a market price of 500 to 800 yuan per kilogram, for example! There are also
I also know how to cultivate many other edible fungi. By the way, let me remind you, the price I mentioned is not Taiwan dollars, but RMB!"
Zuo Li asked excitedly: "I've already made it like this, can I change it to another strain?"
Lin Hao nodded and said: "Of course you can, but it will take some effort!"
Zuo Li asked: "Are we going to cut down trees again?"
"No need!" Lin Hao shook his head and pointed to the wooden frame in front of him and said: "In terms of the cultivation method of edible fungi, although Duanmu cultivation has been gradually eliminated, it is a last resort! But to cultivate high-quality edible fungi, Duanmu cultivation
Cultivation is the most ideal! Although you have not grown matsutake mushrooms now, with such a large wooden frame, you have undoubtedly laid a good foundation!"
Zuo Lidao: "Then what kind of edible fungi do you think is more suitable to grow here?"
Lin Hao didn't answer, just said: "You show me around first!"
Zuo Li was busy leading the way, and at the same time he started to talk a lot. As he walked, he explained to Lin Hao the types of wood on the shelf, the time to plant after sawing, etc.!
Lin Hao followed him forward, but his eyes kept darting around like a thief!
Wu Ruolan never saw Aunt Zhao, and couldn't help but asked in confusion: "Zuo Li, where has Aunt Zhao gone?"
Zuo Li said: "She went outside to find some stone axe!"
Lin Hao smiled bitterly, Aunt Zhao is really persistent. There are more than seventy types of dendrobium, and more than forty of them can be used as medicine. However, there are only three or four kinds that can sell for thirty yuan per gram of dried product.
If it were so easy to find, wouldn’t everyone go up the mountain to look for dendrobium?
While he was thinking this, his eyes couldn't help but glance at the bottom of a wooden shelf on the side, and then his eyes froze.
When Zuo Li saw this, he took the initiative to introduce: "I made this before my dad came back from outside. I used all camphor trees. It has been more than two years! But it's the same, it won't grow.
Matsutake comes out!”
Lin Hao didn't seem to hear his words, but walked forward, squatted down and looked under the shelf.
Seeing this, Wu Ruolan couldn't help but move forward to check, and found that the bottom of the shelf completely intersected with the ground and was the wettest section of wood with many brown things growing on it!
These things are very strange. They look like wood but are not wood. They look like Ganoderma but are not Linzhi. They are very irregular in shape. Some are plate-shaped, some are bell-shaped, and some are horseshoe-shaped. There are also inconspicuous wrinkles on the surface. They are shiny but the edges are not.
Flat and dull!
"Is this Matsutake?" Wu Ruolan asked subconsciously, then immediately shook her head and said, "No, that's not what I saw on TV!"
Zuo Li stepped forward to take a look and said disapprovingly: "It's just some bacteria."
Chapter completed!
