Chapter 533 533. Jinhe Bend
Professor Song looked at the land next to it with green leaves and vines: "Did you cover this too?"
Song Tan nodded: "This is the land of Uncle Zhang who helps look after the Taoyuan, and I signed the contract with him. But we haven't planned it yet, so I still have the kudzu in his land and will dig it out in autumn and winter. We’ll deal with it here—this was agreed at the time.”
“Kudzu root…”
Professor Song touched the leaves, then squatted down and looked at the roots: "The branches are so strong, this kudzu root must also be growing very well. There must be something wrong with the water and soil here, otherwise you wouldn't be able to grow such a beautiful plant - Mt. There are probably other sources of water.”
Song Tan looked around - she hadn't thought about this problem yet. After all, the previous unscientific planting experience was that if it dries out, it will rain...
“If you are planning, it is recommended that you ask specialized well drilling personnel to conduct exploration first, so that we can make more accurate arrangements.”
"And from the perspective of later management, this is also very necessary. Otherwise, it would be impossible to pump water from the pond below in such a large area. Whether electric pumps can work is one thing, as is the cost and subsequent water supply. aspect."
“Okay, okay, okay.”
Song Tan listened with rapt attention, and just had to take a small notebook to write down all the key points one by one.
Professor Song paused and looked at the kudzu growing next to him: "This kudzu is actually a wild kudzu, right? It looks like this. It's not specially grown, and it probably hasn't been managed."
After all, vines and weeds are crowded together, in a messy, dense and disorderly manner, but it will not be like this if there is someone to manage it.
He sincerely suggested: "If you want to enrich the variety, after digging in autumn and winter, I suggest you keep the smaller kudzu and just treat it as kudzu."
“Forget it about Kudzu.”
Song Tan waved his hand: "It's too laborious to make, and it's not worth hiring someone to clean it up...and our family doesn't like to drink that kind of sticky stuff."
Yan Ran defended Pueraria lobata: “It’s actually quite delicious.”
“The senior sister from our hospital gave me a box before, and I ate them all for breakfast.”
"Let me tell you, her kudzu powder is also made at home. The particles are broken into different sizes - dig out a spoonful every morning, first add a little cold water and slowly stir it together, and then add the freshly boiled powder. Pour boiling water in and it will become sticky!"
“When it’s mixed, you can add yogurt, oatmeal, nuts and preserved fruits. You can even add minced meat floss and lean meat. It all depends on whether you like it sweet or salty.”
“If you add a little chili oil... wow, this breakfast will be very satisfying!”
What kind of devilish way is this?
Hearing this, Qi Lin quickly shook his head: "No, no, no, just put sugar. Oatmeal and preserved fruit are also acceptable. What is chili oil?"
Tang Xiaodong was not happy: "Why do you have such a monotonous taste? I eat both!"
Yan Ran chuckled: "I eat both too - by the way, Boss Song, the kudzu in your field looks very good, will you sell it then? I'll buy some."
Song Tan also laughed, having a hunch that Yan Ran would be a good match for his food—
“Just call me Song Tan.”
"The kudzu in this field must be sold in winter, but it still belongs to Uncle Zhang. I'll tell you when he sells it later. But the price may not be cheap..."
She pointed to the peach orchard next to her: "Everything produced in my mountain is not cheap."
"It doesn't matter," Yan Ran thought of the peaches she had eaten and spit out, her expression full of longing at this moment: "Isn't it only 50 yuan a pound? I can afford it!"
Song Tan:…
She coughed: "What... 50 yuan is the price of Baoyuan. The two bosses put the peaches in the boutique supermarket for 144 per catty." Yan Ran:...
She instantly retracted her longing expression, her expression solemn:
“I thought about it and let it go. Kudzu root is really troublesome to eat. It’s good to just cook the noodles yourself in the morning.”
Song Tan couldn't help but laugh: "Don't worry, the quality of the kudzu from Zhang Bo's family is not very controlled. Compared with mine, it will definitely be worse and it won't be that expensive. When the time comes, I'll let you know when it's sold. It depends on your needs..."
Several people were chatting while looking at the drone footage—
“It’s so beautiful! Look at the river in front of you...it’s so golden...”
Professor Song looked at the land under his feet as he walked: "The soil quality here is obviously worse than yours - it seems that you have done a good job in improving the soil."
However, he turned around and asked Song Tan with a slightly serious expression: "What's going on with the mountains in your village? Didn't you say this is a barren mountain? Logically speaking, there should be many big trees... Why are they so sparse? How many woods?”
The rest are half-sized or small, or shrubs.
He looked around again: "Although this place is a bit remote..."
It is indeed remote. Apart from the small road to Song Tan's house, there is only one dirt road that is not connected to every village and can barely be called a main road. When it rains, the ground is filled with mud.
Song Tan was helpless: "When I was a child, in those years some people came to the mountains to collect trees. They paid a few hundred yuan for a tree, and the villagers came to cut it down secretly. Everyone knew it was a tacit understanding that this land was an ownerless wasteland... That’s it.”
“It was also in those years that people came to harvest bluegrass and azaleas… and the mountains were hollowed out.”
Further away from the barren mountains here is the bend of the Jinhe River here. This road is impassable, and the number of people is getting smaller and smaller.
As for Jinhe, there is nothing special about it. The water quality is neither high nor low. Originally, the city was hesitant about whether it could be designated as a forest farm and water resources protection area, but later it was not selected.
It’s over.
“But this river is so beautiful...”
Yan Ran looked at the river under the setting sun captured by the drone. It was sparkling and golden... so beautiful.
Song Tan nodded and pointed to the invisible place in front: "There is a river bend at the foot of the mountain over there. The water quality has been pretty good in recent years. However, there are many aquatic plants and shoals, which is where fishermen can occasionally touch - deep It was too far away, and there were too many aquatic plants in the shallow water. The line often got tangled, and no one came back.”
“It shouldn’t be…”
Professor Song frowned: "In a place like the river bend, the water flow is slow, the wind speed is suitable, and the climate is also very suitable. From an economic point of view, it is most suitable for raising fish in a pen to open a fishing ground... Why do you still seem to dislike this..."
"This is a lousy place." Song Tan smiled bitterly: "Professor Song, do you think there are only a few people in our village now? In the early years, some people in the village did not build a river bend, but a fish pond. As a result, they had a quarrel with their neighbors one time. He killed all the fish in his pond in the middle of the night and lost everything."
“Besides, with the living standard in our village, who has the money to take the risk?”
In fact, the water at the bend of the river over the hill is more beautiful, the scenery is better, and it is more suitable—no one wants it anyway!
This is yesterday’s update.
I didn’t get enough sleep for two consecutive nights. As a result, I started drinking Chinese medicine yesterday and fell asleep...
Kudzu root is really good. My grandma goes to the mountains to dig it every year...
