Chapter 18 I am lazy and greedy
I dug several Smilax cocos plants for more than an hour, and sold the thick rhizomes to the system for a total of 17.5 yuan for 35 kilograms.
"Yes, although the herbs in the deep mountains are difficult to dig, their value is higher than the grass on the roadside."
Lin Shu was very satisfied. He earned 17.5 yuan in just over an hour, which was more than I get a lot more money from work.
There was a piece of wolfberry next to it, and Lin Shu didn't mind it. He cut off all the wolfberry leaves and sold them to the system. The wolfberry leaves also cost 50 cents a pound. Although they were not as heavy as Smilax, there was no need to dig the soil to support them. , harvesting is easier than that of Smilax.
This piece of wolfberry leaf was sold for 7 yuan, and the system balance exceeded the 200 mark, showing 216.6 yuan.
If I work hard this morning and earn a few dollars, I can make up for the cost of visiting relatives this time.
“Wow!”
“So many fir tree fungi!”
After cutting the wolfberry leaves, we entered a fir forest, but we didn’t expect that there was a piece of fir tree fungus growing on the ground.
Fir tree fungus is also called pine milk mushroom, angoose fungus, and pine fir fungus. It belongs to the Russulaceae family and is a precious edible fungus that grows under fir trees. It mostly grows from March to May, or from September to November, and likes to grow in pine forests or broad-leaved mixed forests.
Standing in the fir forest, Lin Shu could smell the unique fragrance emitted by this fungus with his nose.
This kind of fir tree fungus tastes very good when freshly boiled in soup, stir-fried or dried and soaked for stir-frying meat.
【Ding, I discovered that the pine milk mushroom has the effect of relaxing muscles and activating the collaterals, dispelling wind and cold. The meat is tender and delicious, and it also has the amino acids, crude protein, and crude fat needed by the human body. and other materials, worth five yuan a pound. 】
“Tsk, it’s such a good thing, even the system can’t wait to remind you.”
And the acquisition value is not low.
What are you waiting for?
Fortunately, Lin Shu carried the basket up the mountain, threw the small fungi into the basket, and threw the grown ones to the system.
If it is served on the dining table, the small mushrooms will definitely taste better. The larger ones are actually too mature and not as fresh as the small ones.
The system wanted to protest, but it had no choice. It was just a system, and the protest was ignored by the host.
When the balance in the system exceeded 300 yuan, the basket in my hand was full and there was still a large piece left. The fungi were growing very fast. If I didn’t pick them back today, half of the fungi would have been lost tomorrow, and almost all the fungi would have been lost the day after tomorrow.
Lin Shu glanced at the sunlight shining on the ground. It was almost noon. If she brought food up the mountain, she would not want to go back at noon. The reality was that it was not possible.
If she doesn’t go back at noon, I believe her family will go crazy and may call her relatives and friends in the village to go up the mountain to look for her.
Lin Shu returned to the village carrying a basket of fir tree fungi. Everyone he met would ask where he picked it up.
Lin Shu would smile and answer that he picked it up on the mountain. As for where he picked it up, the villagers were very cautious and would not ask too detailed questions.
When I got home, it turned out that everyone in the family had returned from work.
"What a talent! For such a big man, why does it take longer than your niece to cut a basket of pigweed? Xiaoyu and the others came back in the middle of the morning." When Liu Xiao'e saw her coming back, she walked out of the house. .
I just saw that there was no green pigweed coming out of her basket. I was about to say something when I took a closer look and said, "Ah! Where did you pick up so many fungi?"
Lin Dashan Hearing the exclamation, he walked out of the house. When he saw the fungi in the basket, he immediately asked with a smile: " Hey, they are all fir tree fungi. They are all very fresh and tender. Youngest one, have you gone up the mountain? The nest of bacteria, you see I picked up a basket, and that piece was only a small piece," Lin Shu said proudly.
In a few decades, it will be impossible to find such a large number of mushrooms in the mountains again. Now that I have discovered them, pick up more and dry them in the sun, and save them for later eating. You must know that this kind of pure natural mushrooms taste really good. Nothing to say.
"Is there more on the mountain?"
"Well, I'm going to pick up a basket after dinner in the afternoon."
Lin Dashan looked at Liu Xiao'e and said, "This afternoon Let your mother accompany you Go up the mountain, pick up all the pieces, and wait for the peppers to germinate. Then use the dried mushrooms to soak and fry the peppers. It tastes good. It is a good dish to go with wine. "
Thinking about the deliciousness of the fir tree mushrooms. Lin Dashan couldn't help but smacked his lips.
"The fresh soup is also very fresh. I will choose half a basin and let the boss cook it."
Liu Xiao'e turned around and went into the kitchen and took out a basin, and then dried the soup hanging under the eaves. Take down the feast , "My youngest, you go and have a drink of water first, and then come over and help us pick out these fungi and put them on the bamboo feast. They should be dry in the sun for a long time."
At this time, Lu Yinhua came out and said with a smile: "mom, Let the little sister go in and rest, I will do the drying."
It was very hard to run on the mountain for a long time, and someone cared about herself. Lin Shu felt warm in her heart, "Thank you, sister-in-law, you have worked hard here. "
During lunch, several men came out of their rooms and found that in addition to the usual pickles, green vegetables and fried pork with lotus roots, there was also mushroom soup. Everyone was surprised. .
The situation of the educated youth spot is different from that of the Lin family. Since several educated youths cook together, and there is not much food produced in the private plot at this time of year, they only have olive buns and pickles on the table.
And during this period, there are only these two dishes in every meal, and everyone has long been tired of them.
Kong Handong took a bite of the salty and bitter pickles and suggested: "When I came back today, I met Comrade Lin Shu. She picked up a lot of fungi from the mountains. In order to improve our food, we will After dinner, I suggested that everyone stop taking a lunch break and go up the mountain to look for it together to see if we could pick up some. Junzi came back to improve the food."
Xi Dali frowned: "Comrade Kong, we have been busy planting rice for a long time. We are not allowed to rest at noon. It will be unbearable for everyone in the afternoon."
< br>He doesn’t have high requirements for food, he just wants to be full, and he doesn’t have much requirements on taste.
Zhu Zhengliang didn't want to be a cow and horse for a long time, and he had to go hiking without rest at noon, but he wanted to eat mushrooms again, so he said: "How about letting the female comrades go, the female comrades are more careful than us, and they should be better at finding mushrooms than us. In the afternoon Let’s help them do more during the working hours.”
Qi Xiaoyun paused slightly while eating, and sneered in her heart. She was probably referring to people like Zhu Zhengliang who were lazy and greedy.
"I have no objection." Wei Miao looked at everyone and whispered.
Qi Xiaoyun smiled slightly and said: "Going up the mountain at noon will take too much time and you may not be able to find the fungi. Why don't Miaomiao and I go to the mountain to look for fungi in the afternoon? In the afternoon, the three of us will "How is the mission accomplished?"
"This" Kong Handong felt bitter in his mouth. Three people did the work of five. His waist would be broken even if it was not exhausted.
Zhu Zhengliang sneered: "Let me tell you, the fungi on the mountain are not as delicious as the loach in the paddy field. Although the loach has less meat, it is at least meaty."
These words made the five people recall the deliciousness of the loach last time. But what they didn’t know was that last time they worked together to catch less than two kilograms of loach, which almost ended up on someone else’s dining table.
