The old friends went back to do their business first. The young men of Roberto Ferrari's family went to the farm and ranch to dig truffles. Milo and his classmates stopped going to the farm and ranch and headed to the wild forest instead.
Travelers do not need to pay to dig truffles in the forest. Since truffles grow in the soil, humans cannot find them without truffle-hunting dogs and pigs. Tourists who want to experience truffle digging must rent or purchase a truffle-hunting dog.
, which also increases income for local people.
Like the local truffle hunters, Milo drove outside the forest, parked the car in the wilderness, and entered the forest with his children.
During the season when truffles are ripe, many local residents and tourists flock to the forest. The normally silent forest becomes more popular in autumn and early winter. You can hear voices, cheers or barking dogs coming from here and there in the forest.
The sound is nothing strange.
Le Yun and Milo set out not too early nor too late. There were already people in the forest with dogs looking for truffles. The two of them walked further into the forest and smelled truffles nearby and dug them out.
Truffles need truffle spores, so there are certain rules in where they grow. If truffles grow in a certain place, it proves that there are truffle strains nearby. Then truffles will also grow in the nearby area in the future. Truffle hunters found truffles somewhere in the previous year.
If you try to search again in two years, you will generally not be disappointed.
Because there are certain patterns in the growth spots of truffles, any place where truffles are found is basically remembered by people, so excavated places can be seen everywhere in the forest.
Digging truffles every year is equivalent to loosening the soil of the land. To a certain extent, it has certain benefits for forests, farms and pastures, but it also has certain disadvantages. If the backfilling is not timely, it will easily cause soil erosion in places with slopes. Truffle hunters rely on
Make money by digging truffles. You cherish resources very much. You dig the truffles yourself and backfill them yourself. Otherwise, the forest will be riddled with holes, which is terrible.
In order not to rob the local indigenous people of their wealth and be hated by the locals, Le Yun was very sensible and followed the smell as far as possible to the more remote places where truffles grew. He found a place where few people set foot and started digging happily.
Milo ran with the children and hid in the forest for a long time. He once again looked up to the sky and was completely speechless. Didn't he say he was digging for truffles? Why did Xiao Lele keep digging for other plants?
Every time when he dug out the truffles she found, he would see her squatting somewhere and swinging her hoe happily, running over to help. What he often saw was her digging the roots of some kind of tree or vine, or the roots of herbaceous plants.
Must.
Wow, tell me, are the children digging for truffles, or are they actually digging for medicinal materials?
During the lunch break to eat dry food, Milo looked at the harvest and sighed silently. He had dug a lot. Xiao Lele only dug a few truffles. There were some plant stems stuffed in the bag. He was embarrassed to ask why.
.
Fortunately, after the afternoon, Xiao Lele probably realized that her harvest was a bit small. Although she also dug grass roots and plants, the frequency was less, and she spent more time digging for truffles. Until six o'clock in the afternoon, there was not much light in the forest.
Okay, the two of them retreat, digging while retreating.
When the two of them withdrew from the forest and found a parking place, it was dark, and the cars parked everywhere in the forest were nowhere to be seen. Their car was parked alone in the wilderness, which was extremely pitiful.
The two of them, one big and one small, climbed into the car and headed back to the castle in a hurry. Roberto and Amedeo went out for the day and finished work at 6:30 in the evening, waiting eagerly. They didn't see the two of them in the dark until 8 o'clock.
Rushing back, Roberto was worried about the little girl's safety and couldn't talk to the little guy. He grabbed his godson Milo and lectured him for a while.
The old gentleman was giving an ideological education class to the handsome boy Milo. It was like the scene where he was caught by the professor and lectured. The little classmate Le Xiao was so happy that he was just enjoying himself.
Roberto lectured for a while, but was left speechless by Milo's smiling face, and the ideological education came to nothing. Looking at their harvest, it was shocking to find that they harvested more truffles in the wild than in the farm and pasture, and
Amedeo had the same expression as his owner's big dog who was obsessed with oriental girls, they were very frustrated.
The truffle-hunting dog was very sad. He had worked hard all day and gained too little, so the human girl did not need him to work. He had no chance to be friends with the human girl!
Xuanzao arrived in Tuscany town on the afternoon of the 9th. The little Lolita's mobile phone was turned off and could not be contacted. They stayed at the booked B&B, visited the town's truffle museum, visited the truffle trading street, tasted truffle delicacies, and occasionally met with people from
Diners of the world communicate.
Because of the exchange, Mr. Xuan got to know a wealthy Chinese-American foodie businessman who lived in Country M. The wealthy businessman was originally from Jiangnan, and his surname was Xu. He was middle-aged and had a big belly. Xu Fushang lived in New York, Country M, which spans half of the country.
Fly to Europe to dig truffles and taste truffles.
Hearing Mr. Xu complain about how difficult it was to dig truffles and how little he could harvest, Mr. Xuan tried his best to maintain a reserved smile. He laughed so hard that his stomach cramped, and he suddenly lost his balance. He thought he was just unlucky, but it turned out that non-professional truffle diggers had similar harvests.
Because I met my close friend in a foreign country, we had dinner together in the evening and went for a walk before returning to our respective homes. Mr. Xuan returned to his host's house. At about nine o'clock, he received a message from Le Xiaololi asking where he was. He hurriedly
He replied that he had arrived in Tuscany town, chatted for a few words, and the little Loli promised to take him to dig truffles tomorrow. Master Xuan was very happy, made an appointment with the place, excitedly informed the young man of the family, and went to sleep holding his mobile phone.
The next day, the Xuanjia youths got up early and ran to have breakfast. After that, Mr. Xuan took five of his entourage and drove to the place designated by Little Lolita to meet up.
They rushed to the outside of the town and waited at the intersection leading to a certain castle. When it was about seven o'clock, little girl Le came over in the car of a handsome foreign man. The Xuanjia young people saw the little girl sitting in the passenger seat and were moved by her.
Affected by his smile, his mood became better.
Milo drove the car to the car of the young people from China and stopped, got out of the car and greeted the young people: "Hello, friends of Xiao Lele, welcome to Tuscany."
"Huh?" The young man from Xuanjia looked at the handsome foreigner who spoke fluent Chinese in surprise, and replied "Hello, please take care of me." Mr. Xuan shook hands with the handsome foreigner: "Friend, your Chinese is so good, I almost missed it."
Thinking that I am the foreigner.”
"I have a godfather who loves Chinese culture and a lovely Chinese child. If I can't speak Chinese well, I will jump into the Yellow River in shame." Milo happily shook hands with Xiao Lele's friend and introduced himself.
The young man from the Xuan family was amused by the handsome boy. Mr. Xuan also introduced himself and smiled at the handsome boy and the little loli: "Little beauty, your local friend is Huaxia Tong. Now you don't have to worry about finding a place to dig truffles. Please invite handsome boy Milo."
Lead the way and take us to dig for truffles."
"When it comes to truffle digging, I am a worker, and Xiao Lele is the leader in truffle hunting. Friends, let's go digging for truffles. Let's go to the mountains and chat about truffles. If we go late, we will miss one or two more truffles.
It's a big loss." Since Xiao Lele's friend is a noble, he doesn't stick to trivial matters, so Milo doesn't have to be shy and urge people to get in the car.
Mr. Xuan was eager to go to the forest to dig truffles immediately. He readily agreed and hurriedly climbed into the car and let the handsome foreign man lead the way. They followed closely.
Handsome Milo and Mr. Xuan got to know each other in just a few words, and they became more familiar with each other than they did on their own. It was easier for Le Yun. There was no need to introduce them to each other, but it was a bit strange in the world of men. It seemed that men could easily find common topics, compared to
Women become friends more easily.
In order to dig truffles properly, Milo did not take the same road that he entered the forest on yesterday, but entered the forest at a different place. He still left the car in the wilderness outside the forest. A group of people carried their own backpacks and bags with tools and rushed into the forest with extraordinary momentum.
Have friendly exchanges while walking.
The young men were chatting, and Leyun turned on her sense of smell to focus on her career. Not long after walking into the forest, she found truffles that could be dug, and let the handsome young men get to work.
Mr. Xuan was so excited that he took his job as a hard laborer and dug vigorously with his hoe. He dug slowly until he reached about 20 centimeters. When he dug 25 centimeters into the soil, he found a lump, as big as a goose egg.
, dug it out, and happily offered the treasure: "Little beauty, I dug it, I dug a truffle."
"Hmm, it's quite impressive. It's a good start. I'll give this to you as a gift." Le Yun praised Young Master Xuan seriously, smiling like a fox: "As promised, you will dig five truffles and share one truffle, four are
My handsome guy Milo also has the same share ratio."
"No problem." The Xuanjia youths clapped their hands excitedly. Five out of five get one out, right? The more you dig, the more you share. This is fair.
Mr. Xuan harvested the first piece of white truffle. He felt so beautiful that he wanted to fly. He took pictures, removed the soil, packed it in a bag and put it in his backpack. It was his own and must be collected separately.
A group of eight people set off again, walking more than ten meters away, the little loli found another one, and it was dug by the handsome guy Milo. Then they walked again and found it and let the Xuanjia youths dig it. They found it again and let the handsome guy Milo dig it. One by one, he was digging.
fair.
We walked all the way deep into the forest, searching and searching. We stopped and walked for more than two hours and stayed away from the places frequented by truffle hunters to start a formal search.
Milo is only one person, so he can't always keep Lele waiting. He doesn't mind letting the Xuanjia youth share his interests, so that Xiao Lele doesn't have to be fair, and can be poached by whoever is free. Therefore, the handsome young man from the Xuanjia family
They also have a lot of work, of course, they are not unreasonable people. When the handsome Milo has a truffle, they go to pick up the work. After the handsome Milo digs up a truffle, he is free. The truffle found by the little Lolita is given to Milo first.
Handsome guy digs, they will wait for the next opportunity.
The handsome guys are courteous to each other and get along extremely happily. No one competes for opportunities to dig for more truffles. They work hard and actively, and their friendship is warming up.
The seven handsome guys followed the little Loli in the woods with oaks, pine trees and miscellaneous trees. They worked hard for a long time and got a rich harvest. Just as there are many people, there is strength. There are many people and the Little Loli basically doesn't have to be idle, so
The results were many times greater than Milo's alone as a hard worker.
Following the little lolita to dig truffles, the Xuanjia youths were in great spirits. They led the truffle-hunting dogs all over the country in F. Working exhaustingly for several days was not as rewarding as following the little lolita for half a day. What if
When other people saw it, they probably collectively wanted to snatch the little Loli as a guide for finding truffles.
Young Master Xuan was so excited by the joy of the victory that he was more excited than taking a chicken blood shot. Even eating some solid food at noon felt like a waste of time.
After eating dry food, she continued to work. After working for an hour or so, Le Yun seemed to be floating when she walked, with a smile on her face that looked like a peony. Milo noticed something strange, touched her little head, and asked curiously: "Xiao Le
Le, have you made any new discoveries, or were you accidentally irritated by the plants?"
"Oh, Milo noticed it," Le Yun squinted her eyes and smiled so hard that she couldn't see her teeth: "The place I told you yesterday is about to arrive. I have a hunch that if nothing happens, we will have a big fight."
Make a fortune."
"You said yesterday that there was a strong truffle smell in a certain direction. The specific location is not far away, right?" Milo understood instantly. Tomorrow, Xiao Lele said that there was a strong truffle smell in a certain direction, so he copied it today.
The road leads to a certain direction that Xiao Lele said yesterday.
"Are there many truffles somewhere?" When Mr. Xuan heard the good news, he swooped over to the little Loli, his eyes brighter than a hundred-watt light bulb.
"Theoretically, yes, but because the smell is mixed with the smell of certain plants, I am not sure whether the quality of the truffles grown in that place has been affected. If the truffles are affected by certain plants, they can only be taken
It is used to make certain intoxicating drugs and cannot be used as food."
"Well, whether it is for medicinal or edible purposes, it is a joy to find truffles." Xuan Shaocai, regardless of whether they are for edible or medicinal purposes, as long as they can be used, they will not be wasted.
Milo also agreed with Master Xuan's words, whether it is for making medicinal materials or seasonings, as long as it can be used.
The handsome guys are so excited, Leyun is even happier, moving towards the goal, moving forward..., while moving forward, sweeping up the truffles.
Thinking that there might be a huge harvest ahead, the seven handsome guys were in high spirits. They were more excited than winning a million-dollar jackpot. They worked harder to dig truffles, and they looked forward to arriving as soon as possible.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As she gets closer and closer to the target, Le Yun becomes more and more... entangled. Based on the smell, there are people near that place, and there are quite a lot of them. They are trying to steal her business.
What to do with the rhythm?
The truffles in Yi country are produced in the Yanin Mountains. The town of Tuscany is a section of the Yanin Mountains. Due to the terrain and geography, it produces the most abundant truffles. There are often places where truffles are accidentally discovered in the mountains and forests, so there are many places where truffles are found unexpectedly.
All have been excavated or have traces left by humans.
A flat area between the mountains is covered with coniferous and broad-leaved plants such as pine and oak trees, mixed with some thorns, shrubs, herbs and other plants. There are rarely dwarf vines or wildflowers and other dwarf vegetation under the trees, and there are also truffles there.
On the surface, no one has ever dug truffles. Strangely enough, no matter whether the truffle-hunting dogs or pigs are excited when they come nearby, they can't find any truffles after searching for them, and they will eventually leave in frustration.
No one disturbed me. It was quite peaceful in the small forest. However, it did not mean that it would always be peaceful. When a truffle hunter with a truffle hunter pig came nearby, his truffle hunter pig rushed into the woods excitedly, sniffing here and there.
Smell, shake your head excitedly, jump up and down, as excited as dancing.
The pig didn't move away, and it didn't dig up the ground. The truffle hunter didn't care at all. He tried to urge the pig to move away, but it ignored him and even howled and cheered like an out-of-control wild horse.
The squealing also attracted nearby truffle diggers and truffle hunting dogs to come and watch. Soon, three or four groups of people gathered together and saw a big black sow dancing excitedly, and the dog they brought with them
They were also very excited. They put their noses to the ground, turned around and around, and barked, but they didn't show that there were any truffles.
"what happened?"
"What the hell."
"Man, what happened?"
The truffle pigs are jumping around and the truffle dogs are barking excitedly. You ask me and I ask you about the truffle hunters, but no one can explain the reason.
Just when everyone was confused, another pig came nearby with a truffle hunt. The pig howled happily and rushed into the woods. It was a white pig with snow-white hair.
Just as the white pig rushed into the woods, the black pig, who was having fun, roared, raised its ears at the white pig, and grinned fiercely.
The white pig also howled and bared his teeth when he saw it, and the two pigs faced each other.
When the owner saw this, he wanted to take the truffle-seeking pig away, but the pig roared and ignored him. The black pig screamed angrily and rushed towards the white pig.
The owners of the two pigs quickly jumped away when they saw this. The owners of the truffle-hunting dogs were afraid that the dogs would fight, so they forcibly pulled the dogs back to them.
The black pig rushed towards the white pig, and the white pig also scratched its hooves and rushed towards the black pig. The two sows showed their ferocious looks like bullfights. They each ran for more than ten steps. When they collided, you bit me and I bit you.
Cows fight with their horns, bumps, and kicks with their hind hooves. Pigs fight with their mouths and brute force. They bump into each other with their shoulders and bite each other. The two pigs bite and collide as if they have seen enemies, and they soon lose their lives.
.
The owner of the pigs was anxious and had no choice but to call their names and try to get them to separate. However, it was of no use at all. They should be beaten anyway.
The dogs barked more and more excitedly, barking together, and the two pigs fought more and more fiercely.
The owner of the pig and the owner of the dog were shouting and asking each other what was going on. The dog just barked at first, and after a while it seemed to want to rush out and fight. The dog owners used their strength to drag the dog back, trying to stop it.
After being dragged away, the dogs refused to go away, so they could only hold the dogs back to prevent them from fighting.
The small forest suddenly became lively.
The squealing of pigs and the barking of dogs came one by one. Leyun was stunned. Don't tell her that those guys were fighting in that place!
"Is there a wild boar?" Hearing the roar of pigs, the Xuanjia youth was extremely curious. If he encountered a wild boar, could he hunt it down and carry it back to make a delicious meal?
"I haven't seen any wild boars outside the forests near villages and towns, but there are wild boars in the depths of the forest." Milo took advantage of the local people and replied to the Eastern guests.
"Little beauty, it seems to be very lively. Should we go and take a look?" Mr. Xuan was eager to jump in. It looked like it was lively and he had to go and see it.
"Well, go ahead, let's join in the fun." The handsome guys wanted to find out, but Le Yun didn't object and ran away.
The little guy ran away, what are you waiting for? The seven handsome guys rubbed oil on their soles and ran after him.
The eight people burrowed through the woods, bypassed some dense trees and thorns, climbed over a small slope, then went down a slope, ran for about half a mile, bypassed some trees, and found a place where pigs were barking and dogs were barking.
The battle was raging, and the two pigs were biting with blood. The dogs were already uncontrollable. The owner was going crazy and had no idea what the hell was going on. When he saw a group of oriental-looking people running towards him, how could there be anything else?
Sora cares about their existence.
Milo asked in pure Italian with local colloquialism: "Oh, my God, why did they fight? What happened?"
"Ah, damn it, we don't know why, they start fighting as soon as they meet."
"Damn it, it's like this out of nowhere."
"Our dogs don't listen to commands either."
The owners of the five dogs, the owners of the two pigs, and the people who dug truffles together, a total of twelve men and women, chatted one by one, and at the same time, they comforted the dogs, telling them to call the pigs away.
Fighting shouts.
The Xuanjia youths looked at the little Loli with question marks on their faces. She crossed her chest with one hand and touched her chin with the other. Her little brows were furrowed together, obviously deep in thought.
Milo couldn't figure out the reason, so he asked his children: "Xiao Lele, why do they fight?"
"It has something to do with the plants nearby," Le Yun explained with a bitter face: "There is wild hyoscyamus in this forest. There is a certain poisonous plant in the Solanaceae family here. Animals have picked up hyoscyamus before smelling it.
The smell of solanaceous plants here affects the brain, producing a strong sense of excitement and hallucinations. The nature of animals prompts them to regard people of the same sex as love rivals, and fighting is out of animal instinct."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Ah, God, how could such a thing happen?"
"This is trouble."
"God, what now?"
The owners of the truffle-hunting pigs and dogs understood the girl's words and were at a loss.
Milo spread his hands and expressed that he was helpless.
The Xuanjia youths did not understand Italian and had no idea what the little beauty said. They could guess that it must have something to do with plants and kept their expressions of profoundness.
Le Yun looked at the person who was holding the dog in a panic, squeaked at the corner of her mouth, took off her backpack, dug out the sealed small backpack containing her belongings, took out a bag of only four pills, took out one, and cut out half of it.
Put the pieces into pieces, pack the rest, crush the small pieces, put them in the palm of your hand and let the aroma spread.
The fragrance of the pills is rich and elegant, and the irritability that makes people feel dissipated after smelling it. The irritable dogs are also much calmer, and the two fighting pigs are not as fierce as they were at the beginning.
"My kind of fragrance can only temporarily wake up animals. Gentlemen and ladies, please take your pinehounds and stay away, at least three kilometers away. The nightshade plants here are not good for animals. If humans stay for a long time, their brains will also feel excited."
, dizziness and vomiting will occur afterwards. Stay away from here. After the animals wake up, they will be depressed and tired, and may not have the energy to look for truffles again.”
The dogs became quieter. In order to completely solve the problem, Le Yun simply persuaded the people to leave. She just ordered the medicine. It was impossible to give one portion to each person. Letting them go was the real way to solve the source of the trouble.
"Ah, okay, let's leave." The person holding the pinehound immediately pulled the dog away, even if the dog was unwilling, dragging it, coaxing and comforting it, and taking the dog away from harmful plants.
The owners of the two pigs were also busy calling their truffle-seeking pigs, and the two pigs fought for a while until they were panting and fell down from exhaustion within a few minutes.
The owner hurriedly ran over and put a rope on the pig. He didn't care about the wounds on the pig's body. He dragged the pig away, pulled hard, and tried his best to drag the pig away.
The Xuanjia youth stared at it, oh my god, the picture is very funny, isn’t it?
The hilarious scene lasted for about ten minutes. The pig and the dog were dragging the dog and the pig out of a forest where the ground had never been disturbed. Even if the dog wanted to look back, it refused to let them go and dragged them across the country.
As they walked farther and farther, the owner of the pig walked very slowly and took a long time to get away from the place where they were fighting. He also dragged the pig away by force.
The truffle hunter walked far away, so far away that he couldn't hear the sound of voices and footsteps. Mr. Xuan followed the little Loli like a curious baby: "Little beauty, what did you say to them just now?"
"I told them that their truffle-hunting dogs and truffle-hunting pigs were stimulated by the smell of poisonous plants and had hallucinations in their brains, so they started fighting." Le Yun walked towards a nightshade plant. She wasn't lying. There were really many plants growing all around.
There are many Solanaceae plants, which are a type of Datura, but are not as toxic as Datura.
There is also a plant called Mandala, which is the same word as Mandala. It is a kind of camellia, which is originally an auspicious flower in Buddhism. However, when its fragrance is mixed with other plants, it will also form
It has the effect of causing hallucinations in animals.
"Oh, will something happen if someone smells it?"
"Yes, you will be poisoned if you smell it for a long time."
"Little beauty, let's evacuate quickly." It's poisonous, so let's get out of here quickly.
"You don't want truffles anymore?" Le Yun looked back with a smile: "This is the place I mentioned. There are many truffles buried in the soil."
"Ah?" Mr. Xuan turned into a question mark in a second: "Is this where you are talking about? That person just now..." Oh, the little beauty has kidnapped everyone, she wants to take it all to herself!
"They don't know, because the plants here can cause confusion in the brains of pine-hunting dogs and pine-hunting pigs, and confuse their sense of taste, so even if there are truffles under the feet of truffle hunters, they don't know."
Le Yun smiled treacherously, took out the bag of pills stuffed in her backpack, cut open the pills, and gave half a pill to each of the handsome guys: "This is an antidote pill to prevent the smell of plants here, take it and get to work quickly."
"Okay." Hearing that there were truffles in the forest, the handsome guys took the pills and ate them, carrying their hoes with bright eyes, ready for a big fight.
Le Yun took office and took the handsome boys to a place to dig down, then marked out the area for him, then went to another place to determine the location, and assigned each of the seven handsome boys their own digging area.
The areas she designated for the handsome guys were very particular, avoiding places where solanaceous plants grow. In fact, even if there are truffles between the roots of solanaceous plants, there is no big problem. At most, some ingredients are heavier. Consider
When it comes to safety issues, Le Xiao's classmate still chooses to give up the truffles growing in the root zone of the plants. People can't be too greedy. If you give up, you will get something.
After setting a location for the handsome guys to dig truffles, Mr. Le cut a few slits in several trees, installed membranes to collect the sap, and then told them to collect the medicinal materials themselves and carry the tools to other places.
Bypassing a solanaceous plant, she ran to a place about forty or fifty meters away from the handsome guys. She first cut holes in several trees to collect sap, then dug for truffles and some plant pieces.
