Chapter 225 Winter Bamboo Shoots and Sheep Pulling Cans

Li Li was very proud of her foresight and brought the bag in advance, and there were small shovels to shovel these, and there were bags to hold.

This tree is really high-yield, with more than a dozen growing, each of them as big as a palm, and it grows quite thick. Except for the one that is too close to the ground, it is a bit moldy and cannot be eaten, the rest are all very good.

Just the harvest from this tree is enough to stew a lot of meat.

The two girls were very happy to carry their gains.

They hadn't finished picking the tree tongues, but Zhang Dewang's eldest son followed him - he was responsible for going to the sheep farm today to call his father to carry the wild boar, and then followed him directly.

Ten-year-old Zhang Wei followed the adults to the mountains, and did not complain about being tired. Sometimes he searched around himself, which was more flexible than the adults to the mountains.

He is still very happy since his parents said they were coming back to do things.

At this moment, he jumped out of nowhere, and then took out a handful of things from each pocket and put them into Li Li's bag, pouring them out loud.

Li Li had never seen this thing before, so she asked him: "Little boy, what is this?"

Zhang Wei said: "This is a can, which is edible. There are also some there, so I'll get a little more."

Li Li didn't know this, so she asked him, "Is this one edible?"

Look, they all look like stones, with patterns, the size of sparrow eggs, and look a bit ugly. Can they eat it?

Zhang Wei nodded: "This one is delicious, it is fragrant and sweet, really, so delicious!"

He also made an exaggerated gesture of smacking his lips, as if he was intoxicated. Then, he ran into the woods and went to find them again.

Zhang Dewang couldn't help but call him: "Be careful, run slowly, don't run far."

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "He is still very good at finding food. He has found all this stuff. It's not easy! I haven't eaten it for many years."

The can they call is actually a kind of insect pupa. The shell with strange patterns on the outside is made for winter. After spring, it breaks out of the pupa and turns into a moth.

In winter, these cans stick to bare branches, disguised as flowers or something on the branches, and they are still motionless anyway.

There is a worm in each jar. Knock it open when eating it first. The worms inside can be roasted, fried or fried. They are all protein and have a clear fragrance when eaten.

Zhou Heng had eaten it when he was a child, but he didn't eat it much later. It's been many years.

He remembered that when he was a child, he even had a small eye on the can, and after he got out the insect, he whistled with the can. In that era, there were only these things to play with.

It's really nostalgic to think about it.

Zhang Dewang smiled and said, "This kid, we are not at home, we have followed his grandfather all year round. If he is not looking for something, he will learn from it."

These things are what Zhang Yunxi usually finds to eat, so the child learns them with him.

Li Li looked at these grey things and didn't expect that this could still be eaten. She couldn't help but say to Jiang Xiaoxuan: "It's so amazing."

Jiang Xiaoxuan asked her: "Do you dare to taste it later? If you dare to taste it, I admire you."

"What's the point of not being afraid of this? If someone dares to eat it, I will dare to eat it."

"Is that so? Is it bragging?"

"Don't worry, I'll never brag."

Zhou Heng saw that they were talking to each other and said, "Don't underestimate this. It's sold online for more than 80 pounds. It's doubled when it's expensive!"

He does sometimes search and play online to see if anyone sells this one - after all, online sales are so versatile, and you can buy almost anything, but it really comes out to try it, and the price scares him.

Nowadays, there is nothing that cannot be done, only unexpected. Things that were difficult to reach the elegance of a child were now sold at sky-high prices.

Driven by interests, it is estimated that someone specializes in breeding this.

Jiang Xiaoxuan smiled and said, "Then this is still a expensive ingredient?"

"It's not only expensive, but also seasonal, and it's gone after this season."

After picking the tongues on this tree, they had almost rested and had to continue rushing.

Zhang Wei jumped out from somewhere from time to time, then took out a large handful of cans from his pocket and poured them into the bag Li Li was carrying.

This guy was really not idle along the way.

Zhou Heng asked Zhang Dewang: "Brother, I see that there should be many pheasants here. Have you seen them?"

"It should be, I heard it just now. I just didn't go to get it." Zhang Dewang replied.

Pheasant is very beautiful, with colorful feathers and long tail feathers. In the past, in Peking Opera, some characters' "pheasant feathers" on their heads were made of this.

All characters wearing pheasant tails on their heads are usually strong, heroic, handsome, and powerful young characters, including male and female characters, such as Zhou Yu, Mu Guiying, Chen Youliang, etc.

Moreover, the meat of the pheasant is also very delicious. It has little meat, but the meat is very tender, which tastes much better than ordinary chickens.

However, in the past few decades, these have been rarely seen in large quantities of capture, such as ecological changes, etc., and there are signs of recovery in recent years, and sounds can be heard everywhere.

Nowadays, people's demand for pheasants is increasing, so it has also given rise to the industry of breeding pheasants.

Just like Zhou Heng bought a hare base before, pheasants also had a breeding base, and many people were breeding, and the prospects were very good.

Not to mention pheasants, even peacocks have breeding bases - people buy peacocks and go stew meat to eat, which is as ordinary as eating chickens, and those farmers do raise peacocks as chickens.

Some people who are not careful in raising them are ugly than chickens.

However, he doesn't want to expand the industry in a short period of time. He will have to start a second-generation chicken after the New Year and prepare to build a company. He will be busy for a while, so don't think too much.

The group carried the wild boar and took a walk and rested, and walked nearly one-third of the road to continue to rest.

Many people have this experience. When walking for a while, they feel that it has become thirty kilograms; walking for a while, it has become fifty kilograms.

The situation in front of me is similar to that. The pig is lifting heavier and heavier. The main reason is that the road is too difficult to walk. When I carry such a heavy pig, I will slide back if I accidentally.

While resting again, Zhang Dewang pointed to a bamboo forest a little further away and said to his son: "Go and see if there are any winter bamboo shoots there."

After Zhang Wei got the order, he happily agreed and wanted to run over. Then he remembered something and turned to borrow a shovel from Li Li.

He often works with his grandfather, and he is already very experienced, and the winter bamboo shoots here are very delicious and are rare and delicious.

Winter bamboo shoots are the most delicious when they are still in the mud.

Before it grew, it tasted crisp and had a lot of moisture. It also had a sweet taste when stir-fried, with a faint fragrance, and a bit like a cucumber.

But if the season passes, when winter bamboo shoots pop up, the things accumulate a lot of energy for growth, so they taste older, have a lot of bad taste, and sometimes they can't even bite.

Nowadays, wild winter bamboo shoots are not cheap.

In fact, there are indeed valuable things in the mountains. For example, these wild winter bamboo shoots can be sold for more than 30 pounds, but it is too difficult to get out from here and there is not much quantity. It is not cost-effective to get it out to sell it a little bit.

This is the current situation of the mountain village.

It is different from large-scale planting. After it matures on a large scale, it can be transported directly to a large truck for sale.

So, although I know this is worth a little money, few people will sell it.

Unless you encounter a particularly good luck, dig one or two hundred kilograms at a time, it will be worth a little money when you sell it once, and it is worth the effort.

Zhang Wei went over and dug around with a shovel to search. Jiang Xiaoxuan also photographed him. He felt that this child was very interesting. He knew so many things at such a young age, and he was better than many adults.

This is the legendary backer to eat the mountain.

Zhou Heng also walked over and joined the army of bamboo shoot digging, hoping to get some gains, and stew today's wild boar meat.

He hasn't eaten wild boar meat for a long time, so he really thought about it - when he goes back, he will bring some back for his father and mother.

They are not very expert in digging winter bamboo shoots. Zhang Dewang and his uncle came over and joined the digging bamboo shoots, and they became more efficient - they are the real masters.

If it weren't for the purpose of carrying this wild boar, I probably wouldn't have walked this mountain road this year, which would have been an extra gain.

After more people, the harvest became great. I quickly dug nearly twenty kilograms out, and the bag Li Li brought was also full - she was a little scared, how could she lift it?

For her, twenty kilograms are also terrifying, and it is such a long mountain road.

This is really a worry even if you gain something.

When the winter bamboo shoots were dug and the team was closed, Hu Jinhua hung the bag on his shoulder and brought it up - he still knew how much strength his girlfriend could have.

So, when men change shifts, they carry the bag with empty hands.

Carrying a pig, when they finally walked out of the mountain road, they saw the cart that came to pick them up, and they suddenly felt lightening all over, and the stone finally carried it down the mountain.

After receiving the call, Zhang Dewang's wife pushed a cart over on time. This was really great.

Their little girl also followed her in a cart. She originally wanted to take a cart back, but when she saw that she was so big that she looked so scary, she jumped down quickly and refused to stay with the boar.

After a long journey, I finally got home and began to prepare for the wild boar meat.

First of all, I have to boil water and scald the hair. Such a fat pig made several people happy. Although it is not easy to carry it back, it is not easy to say how good it is when I eat meat in a while.

The wild boar was discovered by Zhang Dewang's uncle, but everyone brought it back. After killing it and eating the first meal of meat, everyone must have a big meal first.

Then, the cut meat was divided into some of the neighbors' houses and some of the houses. His uncle kept the big head at home, and kept it for his own houses and then sold it for money.

They are all from the villagers, and no one has the nerve to eat alone.

After scalding the hair, burn the pig's trotters and other areas that are not clean, and then prepare to cut them off. Today is like the New Year.

Next, Zhou Heng and the others will have nothing to do. Just rest and wait until they get cooked and eat meat.

However, Wang Caijun was very surprised to see everything. He was so tired that he helped carry the pig back just now. The dog was not as exaggerated as him. As a result, he still watched people cut pigs and cut them everywhere, which felt very strange.

However, the smile on everyone's face is not fake.

This simple happiness can really infect him.
