Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

Some local products that Su Qing'an often saw in Baijia Village were also seen in other villages. Su Qing'an began to pay attention to the types of products that Baijia Village did not have.

She found that in addition to various fungi, medicinal herbs, and nuts, there were also many kinds in these mountains.

Su Qing'an searched through the burdens and backpacks of the village chiefs and found many things.

The village chief of Shuzheng Village saw that Su Qing'an was interested in what he found, and immediately straightened his back.

Su Qing'an took a few things in her hand and asked him: "Are there many of these nuts in the mountains?"

The chief of Shuzheng Village nodded: "There are quite a lot. But the trees are too high, so it's not easy to pick them. The kids just pick them up from the ground."

Several people in the village saw it and said: "We have some in the mountains, but they are sweet for kids, and adults don't like to eat them. The shells are too hard. There's nothing to eat."

Su Qing'an looked at the chiefs who had spoken up and saw that they didn't bring these things. Just when she was about to ask, the chiefs said: "We didn't bring the fruits, but we brought the leaves."

She said hurriedly because she was afraid that Su Qing'an would blame her.

Su Qing'an nodded at them.

She had only said that they should bring something that could prove it, and she didn't say whether they wanted leaves or fruits. But she really didn't recognize some leaves, but she could recognize the fruits.

She took a few things and went around in front of the chiefs of each village. All the chiefs said that there were these in the mountains.尒演 ）

"Didn't you go to the mountains in autumn? Didn't you pick up mountain products?" Su Qing'an asked.

"Yes, yes. In previous years, everyone went to the mountains and picked up mountain products. We picked up walnuts, chestnuts, millets, and hazelnuts and ate them in winter. Sometimes we would take some out to sell when we sold wild animals." The village chiefs spoke.

Su Qing'an nodded after listening. She saw various nuts in the baskets of many village chiefs. It seems that there are a lot of nuts in the mountains.

She raised the things in her hand: "What about these ones? No one picked them up?"

A village chief saw it and said: "We have picked up those fruits, but the shells are too hard and the flesh is not delicious, so we didn't want them. And that one, there is a black residue when you bite it, and children don't like to eat it."

Su Qing'an followed what he pointed to and looked at her hand. The thing that the village chief pointed to, which had a black residue when you bite it, was Torreya grandis.

Holding up a peeled Torreya grandis, she asked, "Is this the one that has black residue when you bite it? Do you know what this is?"

Everyone shook their heads.

No one likes this stuff. But its wood is good stuff, with moderate hardness and water resistance, making it a good material for furniture. It also has a light fragrance and is not easy to crack, so everyone likes to cut it to make furniture.

Su Qingmei said, "This is Torreya grandis. It takes about three years from flowering to fruit maturity, and it only bears fruit once every three years. It is extremely rare and precious. Many Torreya grandis take hundreds of years to bloom, and grafted ones take ten years to bear fruit. After bearing fruit, one tree can only pick 10 to 20 kilograms."

So it is more expensive in modern times. In ancient times, Su Qingmei estimated that most people had never seen it.

"Ah, this thing is Torreya grandis. I was wondering why I could see it sometimes and not sometimes. It turns out that it only bears fruit once every three years. What is grafting? Does it take ten years for a new plant to bear fruit? Is this thing so precious?"

"But it doesn't taste good. It's crumbs when you take a bite."

Su Qingmei smiled and said, "You need to be patient when eating this, just like you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. You need a little patience for delicious food."

"What do you think? If we sell this thing from the mountains to the outside world, it will only bear fruit once every three years. You can eat it once. Do you say that people outside will buy? "The owners of each village nodded:" Yes. He picked up some and brought it to me. I picked up my little treasure to eat. "The owner of the village here was not a fool. When I heard it, I knew that this thing was really valuable. I ran to the back basket of the tree in the village. "" Let's take a look, look like, you are so stingy! "" You are stingy! The village chief of Shuzheng Village immediately held the basket in his arms, fearing that it would be snatched away. Things that even children were reluctant to pick up before have become treasures now, so they must be taken good care of.

One village chief was unwilling to accept this, saying, "Why did he have something valuable? His village was not far from him: "President, take a look at ours, are there any valuables?"

Su Qingmei glanced down and said nothing.

She raised something in her hand to show everyone: "This is pecan. Although it is not as big as walnuts, it is also delicious and has a high yield. It can nourish the brain and strengthen the brain. It is very beneficial for children and the elderly to eat more. It can also blacken and nourish hair. Is there anyone who picks it up?"

The people who came with pecans straightened their backs immediately and glanced at the village chief of Shuzheng Village. Humph, who doesn't think he has rare things?

The village chief of Shuzheng Village held the basket and refused to put it down. It's not like we don't have pecans.

It's just that the fruit is too small and the shell is hard and it's not convenient to take the meat, so everyone doesn't like to eat it. I'll order people to go up the mountain to look for it when I go back.

Then I heard Su Qingyu say: "There is also this black pine nut, which is also a good thing. It moisturizes the intestines and replenishes qi. In winter, everyone hides their cats at home, so every family should prepare some snacks. Nuts are eaten at home and are loved by both adults and children. These are treasures in our mountains.”

"It may be too late this year. Wait until next year. We will make a good plan and go into the mountains to harvest the autumn harvest. When the market is built, everyone will sell these good things in the mountains and turn them into money, so that everyone's pockets will be full. stand up."

These words made everyone feel excited: "Sell the good goods to mountains, sell them into money, and make everyone's pockets thicker!"

Everyone was excited and excited. There should be a lot of nuts in the mountains now. Let people go up the mountain to have a look when we get back.

Su Qingyu looked into everyone's baskets and said: "Well, some village owners haven't eaten these things yet. I see that everyone has brought some. Everyone gathers together, and I'll let people put these mountain goods in. Let’s stir-fry it for everyone so that everyone can taste it, so that they don’t treat it like fat.”

"Okay." Everyone agreed.

I just heard the president say how good it is. They have never tried it and don’t know if it is really good. If they can try it, they can taste it and go back to promote it to everyone.

Everyone immediately dug out all the mountain nuts in the basket, and each family took a little, which was quite a lot for the 28 villages.

Su Qingyao told Lu and Ruyi and asked them to take them to the kitchen for frying.

Then he went on to tell everyone about the property.
