Joe's Farming

An Ren looked at Qiao Yu expectantly: "You seemed to like the chili peppers I gave you last time. We use them for cooking, and they smell really good. I thought you would like them."

Qiao Yu almost wanted to scream.

He thought there was no such thing as green peppercorns in this world.

He was already very happy to find ordinary peppercorns!

Although this green peppercorn is a bit short, it is not what he expected.

But the green fruit and the unique aroma of green peppercorns clearly told him that this was the taste he liked.

"Anren, I don't know what to say. This is called green pepper in our place, and I've always wanted to grow one! Thank you so much."

Anren scratched the back of his head and said, "Hey, as long as you like it. There are a few trees that have only grown this year. If you like them, I'll dig them up for you tomorrow."

"Okay, okay. ...Is it not good?"

Anyi smiled and said, "It's okay. There's a large patch of it growing in the mountains. We can't eat it all, so no one cares about it."

Qiao Yu wondered, "Then you can pick them down the mountain and sell them."

An Yi's eyes dimmed a little, and he said in a depressed tone: "They have been here before, but they were deceived by the Dayan people several times, and then they rarely came down the mountain."

Qiao Yu was a little embarrassed and could only say, "There are many good people in Dayan."

An Yi nodded: "Yes, I know. So every time An Ren goes down the mountain, I will help him hide it from A Niang."

Anren immediately retorted: "Didn't I help you when you went down the mountain?"

Hearing this, An Yi patted his head and said, "You are so disrespectful."

Anren wanted to fight back, but he had to give up because he was concerned about his sister's health.

"I'll go back and tell my brother-in-law, you tigress."

This kind of sibling relationship was the first time that Qiao Yu and Gu Feng had seen each other. They smiled at each other. The relationship between the siblings was really good.

Qiao Yu interrupted at the right time: "Seriously, I want to buy this. I'll take as many as you can pick. You decide the price, okay?"

Anren looked at his sister with some embarrassment.

Anyi asked, "It's really a big patch, the kind you can't pick all in one day."

Qiao Yu nodded: "Really. It doesn't matter how many days it takes to pick the fruits. I will arrange a cargo ship for you at the dock, and then have the cargo ship deliver them to Taoyuan for me."

Qiao Yu thought for a moment and said, "Or this way, you can give me fresh ones the day after tomorrow. For the rest, you can dry them and give them to me, and the price will be doubled."

Anyi knew this was a huge business opportunity, but he still kept his wits about him.

"I'll go back and talk to the tribe leader. If everyone agrees, then there's no problem. If not, then Anren and I will pick them for you, and we won't charge you any money."

Qiao Yu agreed.

The two siblings left.

Qiao Yu asked the store owner for a large ceramic basin.

Anren was afraid that the tree would not survive due to the hot weather, so he dug the soil ball very large, almost without damaging the root system.

Qiao Yu asked the shopkeeper for some soil, mixed it with wood ash and put it in a ceramic pot, then put the soil ball in it. Then he watered it thoroughly and placed it in a cool and ventilated place to let the seedlings grow.

When the children saw that the guests had left and Qiao Yu was fiddling with the new plants, they all came over curiously.

Gu Heng picked a small fruit and sniffed it: "Wow, it smells so good~"

Xie Tianyu observed its appearance and said, "It looks a bit like Sichuan peppercorns. But it tastes more fragrant."

Qiao Xing: "Dad, what kind of tree is this?"

Qiao Yu patted Gu Heng's rebellious hands and said, "Don't move! This is Qing Huajiao, our new baby."

Gu Heng's eyes widened: "Isn't I our baby?"

Gu Feng laughed out loud when he heard that.

"Aren't you a baby?"

Gu Heng turned away embarrassedly.

Gu Xiaoxue and Gu Xiaoyan both laughed out loud at his cute appearance.

The laughter also attracted Xu Yuan's family next door.

Qiao Yu said as if presenting a treasure: "Ayuan, Xu Ning, come and see the new green peppercorns I received."

Xu Ning took a closer look and smelled a special aroma: "It looks very similar to Sichuan pepper, but the aroma is different."

"Well, Sichuan peppercorns are a bit more spicy and have a unique aroma." Xu Yuan also commented.

Qiao Yu nodded with great satisfaction: "Yes. Do you want to taste it?"

"miss you!"

Several people said in unison.

"Then I'll pick some and make you a green pepper fish tonight."

Gu Heng said happily: "Great~ I can eat green pepper fish!"

Even though he had never eaten it before.

But I must support the dishes cooked by my dad!

-

Qiao Yu carefully cut a handful of fresh green peppercorns with scissors.

Just think of it as a pruning.

Qiao Yu handed the green peppercorns to Gu Feng and asked him to smell them: "Is it fragrant?"

"Well, it's delicious."

Gu Feng took the opportunity to secretly kiss Qiao Yu's exposed wrist and said with a smile: "Qiao'er smells good too."

Qiao Yu was suddenly teased and blushed as she went to find the waiter to buy fish.

The other dishes for dinner are still prepared by the inn’s chef.

There was only one dish, green pepper fish, that Qiao Yu cooked by herself.

The fish was a random sea fish that the waiter bought at the market. Qiao Yu didn’t recognize it, but it only had one main bone.

Qiao Yu sliced ​​the fish and marinated it with scallion, ginger water and salt for a while.

Fry the fish head and bones in oil, add ginger, garlic, chili and a little green peppercorns and stir-fry. Finally, add boiling water and put the fish fillets in.

The fish fillets cook quickly, so just put them in and sprinkle some salt on them before serving.

Qiao Yu spread all the remaining green peppercorns evenly on the fish fillets, heated the oil again, and poured the boiling oil on the green peppercorns.

Shila-

The rich and special aroma of green peppercorns is stimulated.

Finally, sprinkle some chopped green onions and coriander.

The numbing sensation of green peppercorns is relatively mild, so it won’t numb your mouth like the normal peppercorns.

Even if a handful of green peppercorns were added, people only felt the fragrance when eating it, and did not feel it was very spicy.

Moreover, its aroma is very special, with a hint of wood, which is a smell that cannot be replicated by other spices.

Xu Yuan took a bite and looked at Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu understood what he meant almost immediately.

"Okay! I'll give you the recipe in a moment."

Xu Yuan immediately said happily: "The one who understands me is Brother Qiao."

He just felt that this dish was so delicious that it was good enough to become the new signature dish of Yippin Coconut Chicken.

Moreover, the origin of green peppercorns is close to here.

Qiao Yu herself hadn't eaten green pepper fish for a long time.

The familiar taste is so delicious that it makes me want to cry.

Qiao Yu just felt that going south this time was a perfect decision.

Especially the trip to Daci Temple, which not only saved people but also obtained a new plant.

He decided to go outside every quarter from now on.

Maybe after a year, you can find a lot of delicious food that you want.

Moreover, the green pepper business can greatly improve the economic situation of Anren village.

As long as they want, there will definitely be no shortage of customers in the future.

The most important thing is that their fellow tribesmen will gradually change their views on the Dayan people.
