"Don't be too extravagant, Liu Zheng won't accept expensive gifts; and I asked, Liu Zheng emphasized that he wouldn't do a big deal, just a small gathering of people's families, only three tables, and we were not invited to participate. Lu Di emphasized.

"I understand, you mean that we want to express, but we can't make people think that we are too deliberate to thank and repay, and use a simple and practical way to make him both acceptable and touched. Qiu Ge said.

"Yes, that's what it means, I've been thinking about it for a day, but I can't think of a good solution, now it's up to you. ”

"Hehe, look at it, I'll impress you. Qiu Ge said and brushed his hair back with his hand.

"Virtue, don't mess up and be embarrassed, just show up, giggles..."

"When did I lose sight of my work? But you have to prepare gorgeous words to praise me, if you feel that your level is limited, or hurry up and find Teacher Qin Meng to learn." ”

"Giggle...... , Do you still want to make a face?Mom, look at what your son is like?" Lu Di was a little unfamiliar with the Qiu Ge in front of him, this was not the same person who was very indifferent to himself and dealt with him before.

"Alas, I'm so big that I can't take care of the thick-skinned things, so it's up to you to correct it, but I can give you a magic weapon to cure him. ”

"Huh, do you still have a magic weapon, what is it?" Lu Di was very interested.

"It's the awl I've used for years, and it's the one that pierces his cheekiness. Mom said seriously.

"Haha...... Oh my God, Mom, you're so humorous. Lu Di laughed.

And Qiu Ge has a black line on his face, and he doesn't know what kind of ecstasy Lu Di poured into his mother, why is he facing her everywhere?

Qiu Ge has already figured it out, the things prepared for Liu Zheng are not high-end, but they can express their hearts, and they can also allow Liu Zheng, a filial son, to express his thoughts to his father.

Lu Di once said that Liu Zheng's parents were from the forest area, and they were very affectionate and familiar with the ingredients here, so he wanted to prepare some precious ingredients in the mountains and forests for Liu Zheng to use for his father's birthday party.

Think about a person who thinks even vegetables are the best in the woods, can they not want the other ingredients in the woods? They should be very nostalgic.

Qiu Ge wanted to prepare for this, so he brought Wang Miao and Yu Chao over the night, and studied with them where to find something;

Because many animals and plants in the mountains are protected, they cannot be obtained illegally, otherwise they will be caught for breaking the law, or they will bring trouble to Liu Zheng, which will outweigh the losses.

"Second brother, this is simple, now is the time for yuan mushrooms, hazel mushrooms, fungus, monkey heads, and matsutake mushrooms, these things are rare in the city now, even if you see and eat them, they are all farmed or dried, how can the quality be wild and fresh here." "Yu Chao is a chef and is proficient in this thing.

"I also thought about it, and there were bracken and wild vegetables with prickly sprouts, but I didn't think it was distinctive enough, and it was too vegetarian. Qiu Ge said.

"It's easy to want meat, let's get some wild boar, pheasant, fine-scale fish, and salmon, aren't they all meaty?" Wang Miao said.

"I can say it, you can't break the law, you can't touch wild animals. ”

"The wild boar and pheasant I mentioned are both farmed and have special farms, and the two species are available in the reservoir upstream of our Lingdu River. ”

"Really, then we're going to look for these things tomorrow. ”

"Then let's not go to collect mushrooms and fungus? Don't you say that we will ship them to the capital in the next two days?"

Zheng Hongsheng called, and he also asked for a cart of fresh mountain goods, and the car he brought back last time, 20,000 catties, was sold quickly when he went back, so he asked Qiu Ge to send a car.

In the past two days, I have almost prepared it, and I have also vacuum-packed it and stored it in the low-temperature warehouse, and I will be able to ship it tomorrow after receiving a few thousand catties.

"Let my eldest brother and Yang Chenglong go to collect and then deliver the goods, let's go find the ingredients;

"It's not far, about 30 kilometers, but the road conditions are not good, and the farm is deep in the mountains. Wang Miao said.

At dinner, Qiu Ge told his eldest brother about the situation, and asked him and Yang Chenglong to replace Wang Miao and Yu Chao tomorrow to receive the goods and deliver the goods at the same time.

Early the next morning, Qiu Ge took his father, Wang Miao, and Yu Chao and set off in an off-road vehicle; Lingduhe Village was already a relatively isolated small village, but the place they were going to today was a more remote place, in the depths of the mountains, in the innermost part of another ravine.

There is only one mountain road, very narrow, only one car can pass, and the road is rugged, there are many stones with sharp edges and corners, you need to be careful to avoid, otherwise you may cut and puncture the tires, and there are many deep ditches washed out by the water, although not very wide, the off-road vehicle can cross it, but it is terrifying.

There is a mountain on one side of the mountain road, and a deep ravine on the other side, which means that the mountain road is opened halfway up the mountain, and the bottom of the valley is a small river, and the water flow is very fast.

However, the scenery along the way is quite good, with patches of birch, red pine, and mixed trees, and the occasional squirrel running and woodpecker flying by.

Qiu Ge cautiously drove the car forward, he didn't have time to enjoy the scenery, and if he was not careful, he might drive the car into a deep ditch or turn over to the bottom of the mountain, so he had to be highly concentrated.

Thirty kilometers of mountain road, they walked for two hours, and finally guessed the farm through a thicket of hazelnut trees.

This is the innermost part of the ravine, but it is also very open, surrounded by mountains, only the place where it comes in is relatively low, and the rest of the place is high mountains, and the middle is low and flat, like a basin.

However, a small river cut through the mountain and flowed outward, ensuring that the area would not be flooded and providing water for its survival.

Because the terrain was flat, Qiu Ge stopped the car to ease his nervous spirit, and at the same time looked around, he found that there were many animals moving in the middle of the forest on the hillside, and he couldn't see what it was because it was too far away.

"The mountains are full of wild boars, free-range, so the meat is delicious. Wang Miao said.

"It's a big place, it's just too remote. Qiu Ge said.

"Breeding wild boars should be in a remote place, with large mountains and forests, so that wild boars can run in it, so that the meat is firm and the taste is very good. Yu Chao said.

"Then let's go to the boss and buy one and go back. Qiu Ge started the car again and drove towards the farm's premises.

When they reached the door, three sturdy men came out of the house, one in his thirties, and the other two in their twenties.

"Where's Boss Hu at home?" got out of the car, Wang Miao greeted the other party.

"Yo, isn't this Wang Miao, why are you so good at kung fu?" the man in his thirties asked.

"Oh, I brought a friend to buy some wild boar from you, I don't know if I can sell it now?"

"Sell, raise it to make money, how can you get income if you don't sell it?"

"Second brother, this is the owner of the farm, Boss Hu. Wang Miao said.

"Oh, I'm from the same village as Wang Miao, my name is Du Qiuge, hello Boss Hu, I'm going to buy a wild boar. Qiu Ge stretched out his hand to shake hands with Boss Hu and introduced himself.

"Hello, Hu Yongli, pig farmer, Boss Du, do you want to live or slaughter?"

"How long does it take to slaughter?"

"About an hour. ”

"Then trouble Boss Hu to slaughter it, I'll pull a live pig back in this car, this way is bearable." "The rear and front of the buggy are one, so the flavor inside is mixed.

"Hehe, yes, the taste of this thing when it is alive and after death is too different;

"The bigger ones, you can just look at them, as long as they are healthy. ”

"Boss Du, don't worry, there is nothing wrong with the wild boars on my mountain, I will go and catch them for you now." Hu Yongli said that he was leaving.

"Wait, Boss Hu, after you sell the wild boar here, can you give me a certificate?"

"Oh, yes, yes, rest assured, Boss Du, I have a complete license here, and I will give you a certificate when you leave, guaranteeing that you can't be allowed to eat lawsuits, and what is farmed is farmed." ”

"Hehe, I'm relieved. Qiu Ge said embarrassedly.

Hu Yongli took the two young men up the mountain with professional tools to catch wild boars, and Qiu Ge and a few people were waiting in front of the house, when a woman came out of the house, brought out a few plastic stools for them, and brought tea.

"Sister-in-law, I see what about the pheasants you raise over there, is that one sold?" Wang Miao asked the woman.

"Oh, sell it, you want to buy it too?"

"yes, how much does it cost?"

"One hundred pieces, ninety dollars a pair. ”

"Yo, is it cheaper to buy this pair?" asked Qiu Ge.

"Yes, one male and one female buy cheaply in pairs. ”

"Then you can catch me twenty pairs, oh, have you slaughtered any of them?"

"It's really not, this pheasant is freshly slaughtered and delicious, and the taste is firewood after it is frozen. ”

"If you put forty pheasants in the car, won't it taste good?" said Qiu Ge.

"It's okay, I'll get you a few foam boxes, so that the pheasant's head is outside and the body is in the box, so that the smell is much less. The woman said with a lot of experience.

"That's great, you can load us with twenty pairs. Qiu Ge decided to say.

Hu Yongli: Their efficiency is really fast, and when the woman loaded the pheasant, they also carried a wild boar down, and the three strong men took turns to replace them, and it seemed to be very easy.

Weigh the wild boar, more than two hundred and sixty pounds, these three strong men are really good physiques.

Subsequently, the wild boar was carried to the trailer of the agricultural vehicle, and Hu Yongli and the three of them also loaded some tools for killing pigs.

"You're not killing pigs here?" asked Qiu Ge.

"You can't kill it here, the wild boars in the mountains don't smell it well, we're going to go down the river and kill it, and we'll be fine for a while." ”

"Shall we go along, then?"

"It's okay, but the road is not easy to walk, so don't go to the old man. ”

"Oh, that second brother, you and the old man are waiting here, and Chaozi and I will go over to help. Wang Miao said, Yu Chao's nickname is Chaozi.

So, Qiu Ge and his father stayed, and several other men went to kill pigs.

At this time the woman went into the house again, and when she came out, she carried a jar in her hand and a water bottle.

"I don't see that you like tea, so come, drink some honey water. As she spoke, she made a glass of honey water for Qiu Ge and her father.

Qiu Ge thought it was very good, so he took a sip of it, and a cool, fragrant, and sweet taste slipped into his mouth and flowed into his stomach.

"Yo, eldest sister, what kind of honey is this, why does it taste so good?" To be honest, this is the best honey that Qiu Ge has drunk.

"This is the honey made by my own bees, and my dad is a beekeeper. ”

"Do you have any money left here, can you sell me some?"

"Hehehe, you're so interesting, how can you buy everything you see?" the woman asked with a smile.
