The wine shop is still under construction and there is no rush to open the wine shop, so she plans to open a dessert shop first and a fruit and vegetable shop as well.
It specializes in buying all kinds of fruits and vegetables.
Although there are not many fruits at present, vegetables are slowly becoming available.
Later that year, Gu Qiqi planted a batch of greenhouse vegetables and watermelons.
After more than a month, many vegetables are ready to eat.
In addition, some wild vegetables can be sold.
Of course, speaking of wild vegetables, now that spring has begun, all kinds of treasures are beginning to be unearthed in the mountains in the south.
After opening the shop, Gu Qiqi can go into the mountains to hunt for treasures.
The shop is scheduled to open on the third day of March.
In today's world, there is a folk custom on the third day of March, that is, boiling eggs with shepherd's purse.
Of course, the old shepherd's purse that has bloomed should be used.
So that day, Gu Qiqi did not forget to boil some eggs with old shepherd's purse for breakfast.
After breakfast, everyone set off to Jiangducheng.
When the shop opens, her boss will naturally be present.
However, when they entered the city and passed by the foot of a large mountain outside the city, they found that there were already many women leading their children to dig wild vegetables.
There was a lot of rain last year, and the weather gradually improved in February. Now the wild vegetables in the mountains are growing very gratifyingly.
A casual dig can yield one or two baskets.
The villagers dig it home, wash it, dry it, store it and eat it for a while.
At least it can make up for the lack of summer harvest.
In the south, you can plant in winter and harvest in summer, and plant in spring and harvest in autumn. You can harvest two crops of food in one year.
Now that there is no summer harvest, the villagers are feeling very uncomfortable.
Seeing the villagers coming to dig wild vegetables before dawn, Gu Qiqi asked Fu An to stop the carriage and then go down to check the situation and see if they could harvest a wave of wild vegetables.
"Auntie, did you come here to dig wild vegetables before dawn?" Gu Qiqi asked.
The aunt who was digging wild vegetables on the roadside heard Gu Qiqi's voice, raised her head and looked at her, and then continued digging wild vegetables while answering: "Yes, last year's heavy rain prevented the crops from being planted, and the stored grain was soaked in water.
If the government hadn't sent relief food, we wouldn't know what would have happened now."
"Fortunately, I have no memory of spring planting now, so I took advantage of the sun to dig some wild vegetables, clean them and dry them in the sun. This way it will not affect my work during the day."
Gu Qiqi: "The wild vegetables my aunt dug are very fresh. This one is probably shepherd's purse. There are also a lot of wild onions and dandelions. These are all very good wild vegetables."
"Auntie, why don't you dig up this wild vegetable?"
The little boy next to my aunt stood up and replied: "We have never eaten some of them, and we don't know if we can eat them, so we don't dare to dig them out."
Gu Qiqi nodded after hearing this. Indeed, who would dare to eat unknown wild vegetables unless absolutely necessary? It is like mushrooms. There are thousands of mushrooms on the mountain, but few people dare to pick them.
Too many people have been poisoned to death just because of eating mushrooms, so no one dares to risk their lives to try it.
Unless someone eats it and is sure it is 100% poisonous, then people will slowly start picking it.
At this time, whether it is wild vegetables, mushrooms, or whatever, whether you can eat it or not is something you will slowly try out.
"Auntie, this is wild mugwort. It's tender and can be eaten. It can be made into soup or made into moxa cake."
"Wild mugwort is also a traditional Chinese medicine that can stop bleeding and dispel cold. When you are injured and bleeding, just rub the wild mugwort into water and apply it on the wound to stop the bleeding."
"If you have a nosebleed, you can use this wild vegetable to rub the water out and gently block your nostrils. The bleeding will stop after a while."
"And this one, this one is called buffalo flower, and it's also edible. The preparation is the same as wild vegetables."
"This water celery is delicious no matter how it is stir-fried or stir-fried with meat."
"Purslane, gray cabbage, Zheergen, ququcai, ground cabbage, motherwort, and the small bamboo forest. The tender bamboo shoot meat inside can also be eaten after the bamboo shoots have just grown."
"Well, there are also wild peas and duck feet that are all edible."
Gu Qiqi picked some wild vegetables and introduced them to her aunt.
There are all kinds of wild vegetables everywhere along the way. Not only do they grow beautifully, they are also tender and plentiful.
If you dig casually, you can quickly dig up a basket.
At this time, the aunts who were digging wild vegetables nearby also gathered around to listen.
"Girl, how do you know so much?"
Gu Qiqi explained casually: "Because I know some medicine and can recognize some medicinal materials when picking them. Many of them can not only be eaten as wild vegetables, but can also be used as traditional Chinese medicine to treat diseases."
"Then if we eat these wild vegetables, if we have any illness, we can be cured without treatment?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Gu Qiqi: "That's true."
"Girl, it's getting late." Li Xia in the carriage quickly reminded.
Upon hearing this, Gu Qiqi hurriedly said to everyone: "If you don't know me, just take this and pick it. And if you want to sell it for cash, you can take it to the city and sell it. Or sell it to my shop."
Okay, just sell it to my shop and it will be cheaper if I charge it."
"It turns out that the girl owns a shop."
"What's the name of your shop, girl? If we want to sell it, we'll find you, girl. Thank you for telling us this."
"My shop is called 'Fruit and Vegetable Shop'."
At this time, the names of the shops were very simple and you could tell what they were selling at a glance, so when Gu Qiqi decided to name the shop, they called it a fruit and vegetable shop, selling fruits and vegetables.
A tavern is called a tavern, a place that sells alcohol.
Only restaurants can think of a nice name and add it in front.
Or just call it by that nice name.
For example, Gu Qiqi's restaurant in Nanguan City is called Shuiyunjian.
"Fruit shop?"
"Could this girl be the granddaughter of the Qi family in the village over there? The daughter of the Gu family?"
Gu Qiqi smiled, then got on the carriage, "Aunts, just pick according to what I gave you."
After saying this, Fu An drove the carriage towards the city.
As soon as Gu Qiqi left, the aunts who came back to their senses knew that everyone's guess was correct, and then they praised Gu Qiqi's disappearing carriage.
"This daughter of the Gu family is really nice. The shop is so busy when it opens and she still comes down to tell us which wild vegetables we can eat."
"No, how bad can General Gu's daughter be? How bad can the girl he likes be?"
"I heard that no matter it's drought in the north or floods in the south, this girl is always thinking of ways to deal with it."
"I heard that all the food in her village in Nanguan City was given out for free for disaster relief, and she also encouraged many large households to donate food and money. She has done a lot of good things."
"It is also a blessing for our people to have such a good mother of the country in the future."
"Okay, okay, I won't say any more. Take the time to pick more wild vegetables. When it gets brighter, I might be able to go to the girl's shop and sell these wild vegetables for some money."
