Chapter 36: Coconut

After a short and showdown-like conversation, the relationship between Mina and Ye Luo has obviously become closer, but that's all, not to the level of boyfriend and girlfriend.

It can be said that the relationship between several people has become quite casual.

After learning that Ye Luo wanted to find a coconut, the three daughters of Mina couldn't sit still, and shouted to help, and Ye Luo could only agree when she saw this.

Anyway, he plans to see if he can find the coconuts, and if he can, he will find a few more to come back, so as not to run once in a while, too tired.

Now with the help of the three daughters of Mina, he can also reduce a lot of Ye Luo's workload, he is not stupid, how can he refuse, besides, doing things alone is different from doing things with women.

At the very least, it's full of motivation!

took the bag, and Ye Luo went out with the three daughters of Mina.

Soon, the four of them were under a coconut tree on the edge of the beach.

Looking at the fruitful coconuts hanging high on the coconut tree, the leaves fall from his family to know his own affairs, so he can't do the thing of climbing the tree and picking coconuts.

Although he knew that the coconut that had just been plucked from the tree was the freshest, he visually measured that the distance from the ground to the coconut was at least seven or eight meters, and he was not at this height.

After the three Meina girls beside her looked at the height, they didn't make a sound to let Ye Luo climb up and pick it, it is estimated that even if Ye Luo wants to go up, they will refuse.

There is no way to pick it up.

So Ye Luo can only take Mina and the others all the way along the place where the coconut trees grow, anyway, they are all on the beach, and there is basically no danger.

Along the way, a few people have seen a lot of ripe coconuts that fell to the ground, but the skin is not fresh green, but has turned a brown similar to a dry one.

Ye Luo also picked up a few coconuts that fell on the ground and shook them in his ear, and found that there was still the sound of coconut water in it, but because he didn't know much about the shelf life of coconuts, he was worried that he couldn't drink them, so he put down the coconuts.

The shelf life of coconut is not long, but it is not short to say that it is short, like the few months that have noses and eyes on the Internet is deceitful.

Coconut is a coastal specialty, drinking this in summer is also very pleasant, coconut will be bad for a long time, generally speaking, coconut is also divided into several types, the shelf life is also different.

For example, a green coconut (weighing about 3 kg).

Characteristics of water, thick skin, soft meat, each coconut about three kilograms, but the shelf life is particularly short, from the tree, can only be shelf life about 10~12 days.

Green skin old coconut (weighing about 2.5~3kg).

There is less water, and the water can shake, but the meat is thick, and the shelf life is relatively longer. The weight of green skin old coconut is between 5~6g under normal circumstances. The shelf life of green coconuts is about 15~20 days, depending on the time when they are picked from the tree!

Peeled tender coconut (weighing about 1kg).

With the addition of preservatives, it can be stored for about 8~10 days, but after being bleached and soaked in chemicals, the appearance looks very white, but it is not recommended for customers to buy this kind of coconut. This kind of coconut is used by tourist attractions to deceive tourists.

Peeled old coconut (weighs about 1kg).

Without preservatives, it can be stored for 20~80 days, and there are many kinds of oldness, just like people from 40~100 years old, but the most conventional old coconut can be stored for more than 20 days. The coconuts sold on the market are about 20~30 days of shelf life, peeled old coconut is divided into two kinds of non-processing and processing and polishing treatment, called hair coconut and light coconut!

King Coconut (about 1 kg in weight).

After manual peeling processing, the brown color is obtained, and the shelf life ranges from 15~30 days.

He is not in a hurry to find fresh coconut leaves, and he is not the kind of person who is stranded on a desert island and can only choose coconut to replenish water when there is no fresh water.

He didn't know what kind of desert island Ye Luo was, but he understood that his island was definitely not a desert island, at least he didn't have to worry and worry about food, water, and a place to sleep.

As for danger and the like, as long as Ye Luo himself does not die, there will definitely be no such scene.

Along the way, Ye Luo and the others stopped and stopped, and also noticed that there were fewer and fewer coconuts falling on the ground, and there were also not many coconuts on the trees.

However, Ye Luo found that these coconut trees seemed to be shorter than the previous coconut trees, and he didn't know if it was his illusion.

Soon, when a coconut tree more than two meters tall appeared in front of him, Ye Luo knew that it was not an illusion.

The coconut tree is more than two meters high, and there is no pressure on a few people who have at least one meter and seven dozen bottom leaves.

With a leaf drop of 1.88 meters, even Sft, the shortest of the three girls, is about 1.73 meters, not to mention Mina, who is 1.75 meters tall, and Lavignie, who is 1.78 meters tall, can easily pick a coconut no matter which one of them.

Although the coconut tree is two meters high, in fact, the place where the coconut grows is at most about 1.7 or 1.8 meters, and anyone can reach out and pick it.

It's just that the coconut here is different from the green before, similar in size to a rugby ball, and the color is golden yellow.

Coconut has green coconut and yellow coconut leaves in the previous life, and even two kinds of coconut he did not eat less, one mainly drinks juice, and the other eats meat.

Before Ye Luo could speak, the three daughters of Mina cheered and began to pick up the coconut.

Maybe it was the first time to pick a coconut, and the inexperienced Mina Sannu got started with it directly, and it took a lot of effort to pick one off.

According to their method of picking, it is estimated that they will not be able to pick a few when they run out of strength.

Ye Luo, who was watching this scene on the side, had to go out and demonstrate it to them in person.

I saw Ye Luo holding a coconut and turning it in one direction a few times, and the coconut let him pick it off.

Ye Luo's teaching made the three daughters of Mei Na can't help but show admiration in their eyes, and they can't wait to learn Ye Luo's method and pick it up.

Really.

Mina and the three of them found that it didn't take much effort to pick coconuts like this, and they didn't know what moderation was, so they picked them even more happily.

Behind him, Ye Luo saw that there were more and more coconuts on the ground, and he hurriedly stopped Mina and them for fear that he wouldn't be able to take them back.

Put the picked coconuts into the bags brought, they were actually filled with two large bags, each bag was filled with at least seven or eight, the size of the coconuts was about the same size, and the coconut that I picked just now was estimated to be about 2 to 3 years in weight.

That is to say, a bag is at least more than 20 catties, and the two bags add up to no less than 50 catties.

If it were a few catties, Ye Luo would be able to let Mina and the others carry it back, but the weight of twenty catties would be a little difficult for an adult man, let alone a woman.

Especially since this place is still almost twenty minutes away from home, so when they strongly asked for help, Ye Luo decisively refused, in his opinion, Mina and they couldn't move it.

Holding a generation of coconuts in each hand, Ye Luo took Mina and the others back.

Soon.

When he returned home, the coconut immediately put down the bag containing the coconut, and quickly shook his hands, not tired or sour, but strangled.

Then, Ye Luo walked to the kitchen and took out a knife, took out a yellow-skinned coconut from the bag, opened it and poured out the juice inside, I wanted to drink it myself, but I saw the three girls who were looking forward to it next to me swallowing saliva, couldn't help but smile and shook her head, and handed over the cup: "You guys taste it first, see how it tastes, I'll open a few more." ”

"Thank you. ”

After Mina said thank you, she took the cup and took a sip, then her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she handed the cup to Lavigny beside her, and after Lavigny took a sip, she handed the cup to the last Sfut with a strange face, and when Sfut took a sip, his face also became a little weird.

After waiting for the three girls to drink the coconut water in the cup and then reopen the coconut leaves, they noticed the strange expression on the three girls' faces, and saw that there was still more than half of the coconut water left in the cup, thinking that they didn't drink it, so they said loudly: "If you don't drink it, give it to me, just because I'm dying of thirst." ”

Hearing Ye Luo's words, Sfut held back a smile and handed him the cup directly.

Ye Luo, who took the cup, drank it directly without thinking about it, then put down the cup and blinked: "It tastes good, it's delicious, although it's not very sweet, but it's quite refreshing." ”

Ye Luo really didn't lie, he did feel quite delicious.

Although the taste of yellow-skinned coconut is not as refreshing and sweet as that of green-skinned coconut, it is better than lightly sweet and refreshing.

The sweetness of the two kinds of coconut is different, if you use the lowest 1 star and the highest 5 stars to describe it, then the sweetness of the green coconut is about 4 stars, while the yellow coconut is about 1 to 2 stars.

In terms of texture, the two are almost the same, but the taste is very different, and sometimes the taste is indeed easy to affect the texture.

However, this is not certain, some people like something a little sweeter, while some people like light sweet, and people with different flavors like different things naturally.

It's like someone who likes to eat spicy food and has to eat spicy food at every meal, which can be said to be no spicy food, and for those who can't eat spicy food, once they are allowed to eat spicy, it is like killing them.

"I still like the green-skinned coconut we drank before, but unfortunately I didn't find it. ”

After watching Ye Luo drink all the coconut water in the cup at once, Mina said with a regretful expression.

"It's okay, it's a big deal, we'll look for it tomorrow. Ye Luo smiled, took out a coconut from the bag and opened it, while carefully pouring the coconut water into the cup, he said: "There are two kinds of coconut: green coconut and yellow coconut, green coconut is famous for its sweet juice, and yellow coconut is won by coconut meat." Therefore, if you like to drink coconut water, you should choose green coconut, and if you like to eat coconut meat, it is best to choose yellow coconut. ”

When there was not a drop of coconut water left in his hand, Ye Luo directly split the empty coconut in half, revealing the thick layer of snow-white coconut meat inside, Ye Luo pried a few pieces with a knife and handed them to Mina and them: "Oh, try it, I promise you will like it." ”

The three girls of Mina took the coconut meat handed over by Ye Luo in disbelief, took a bite carefully, and after chewing a few times, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said with an excited expression: "Wow, it's delicious, it's crisp and sweet like milk." ”

"I love this thing!" Lavigny swallowed the coconut meat and said to Ye Luo, "Give me another piece, I haven't eaten enough." ”

Ye Luo smiled and handed Lavigni the coconut meat in his hand that he hadn't had time to eat, and at the same time advised: "Don't eat too much, otherwise it will be easy to have diarrhea." ”

Then Ye Luo pried open the new coconut meat, and handed it over without waiting for Mina and Sft to speak, but did not speak, what he said to Lavigny just now was also eaten by the two of them, so he naturally didn't have to say it again.
