Chapter 62: The vegetables are ripe
When Ye Luo and the others left Xiaofei's studio, it was already more than 8 o'clock in the evening.
A few people discussed it and found a restaurant nearby to eat, and then because it was too late, Ye Luo and Meina simply didn't go back, and directly opened a room in the hotel for one night.
Early the next morning.
Ye Luo and the others got up very early, and after a simple breakfast, they went directly to the front desk to check out.
......
When you get back to the island, park your yacht.
Ye Luo didn't go home, but trotted directly towards the location of the vegetable garden, and Mina, who came down after him, also followed.
Soon, when he walked to the field, the whole person was stunned.
Really.
The suspicion in my heart was confirmed, today is the third day, and the vegetables in the field are ripe!
I saw red radish, tomatoes, white radish, green cucumbers, purple eggplants, and all kinds of vegetables in the field.
On the other side, the watermelons in the field are about half the size of yoga balls, and the color is not the usual green, but black with purple, and the surface is smooth enough to easily see the lines on the watermelon skin.
Ye Luo's eyes lit up instantly, but he didn't expect the watermelon in the [Super Mall] to be a black-skinned watermelon.
In his previous life, Ye Luo, who was on the earth, also heard on the Internet that a watermelon costs 121 US dollars, which is about 757 yuan when converted into RMB, and it is produced in Japan.
This dark-skinned, smooth watermelon is said to have a special sweetness and grows only in Hokkaido, producing only 100 watermelons per year. The most expensive of them weighed 17 pounds (about 7.7 kilograms) and sold for $6,100 (about 38,200 yuan) in 2008, becoming the 'battle melon' among watermelons.
Because of the small production, the price is particularly expensive, and it is completely an imperial existence among all watermelon varieties.
You must know that when watermelon is the most expensive, it is already very scary to have a maximum of five yuan a catty, basically the price is between 2 and 3 yuan, when entering the watermelon season, the price is called a cheap, sometimes a catty is sold for 2 to 3 cents, and a watermelon is at most 3 or 4 yuan.
Of course, the price may vary from place to place, but the fact that the price of watermelon is not high is recognized by the public.
Watermelon can be called the "king of midsummer", refreshing and thirst-quenching, sweet and juicy, and is a good fruit in midsummer.
Many people spit out the black watermelon seeds when they eat watermelon, and even only eat the red flesh, while the green skin and the thin white flesh below are discarded.
In fact, watermelon belongs to one of the fruits that can be eaten anywhere.
In addition to not containing fat and cholesterol, it contains a lot of glucose, malic acid, fructose, protein amino acids, lycacein and rich vitamin C and other substances, which is a highly nutritious, pure and safe food.
The sugar content of pulp meat is generally 5-12%, including glucose, fructose and sucrose, and the sweetness increases with the increase of sucrose in the late maturation stage.
Watermelon pulp: protein, glucose, sucrose, fructose, malic acid, citrulline, glutamic acid, arginine, phosphoric acid, lactode, propionic acid, ethylene glycol, betaine, adenine, sucrose, carotene, tomato hydrocarbons, hexahydrotomato hydrocarbons, vitamins A, B, C, volatile components contain a variety of aldehydes.
Watermelon seeds: contain fatty oil, protein, vitamin B2, starch, pentosan, propionic acid, urea, sucrose, etc.
Watermelon rind: Watermelon rind is rich in vitamins C and E.
It can be seen that watermelon is very nutritious from the inside out.
Because of the improvement of living standards, many people will pick out the watermelon seeds when eating watermelon, then eat the red flesh, and then throw away the watermelon skin with the white flesh.
This point has unconsciously become people's perception of eating watermelon.
Of course, there are still some people who will eat the watermelon seeds along with the flesh, and even some people will peel off the green skin of the watermelon skin, and then leave the white layer that can be said to be the skin or the flesh, and eat it along with the red flesh.
"Oh my God, is this still a vegetable? It's a work of art!"
The three of Mina, who came after them, were also very excited at this time, and did not hesitate to pick a few tomatoes together.
Looking at the crystal clear tomatoes in their hands, they couldn't help but swallow.
Immediately, Mina handed the tomatoes to Ye Luo and asked excitedly, "How did you grow such beautiful tomatoes?"
"This is the new breed I told you I got from a good friend. ”
Ye Luo casually found an excuse to perfunctory the past, it can't be said that it was taken from the system, and it will be even more difficult to explain when the time comes.
Mina's eyes widened suddenly: "This is the very expensive seed you said?"
"yes. Ye Luo nodded, and said with a wicked smile: "Didn't you all think it was worthless at first, but now?"
Lavini kept nodding his little head: "Of course it's worth it, it's just worth it, I just don't know what it tastes like." ”
At this time, after Sft handed over the tomatoes to Mina, she went straight to the edge of the land where the cucumbers were grown, looking at the cucumbers in front of her like jade, she also picked one without hesitation, wiped it casually, and took a bite without hesitation, and suddenly felt the crisp flesh of the cucumber melt in her mouth, turning into a sweet stream into her mouth, which made her involuntarily squint her eyes.
After a while, she opened her eyes and sighed, "It's delicious." ”
As soon as the words fell, Fit took the cucumber she had bitten in his hand and ate it in such a big gulp.
"Is it that delicious?"
Looking at her gobbling up, Ye Luo, driven by curiosity, also picked a cucumber and ate it, and suddenly her eyes widened, what kind of cucumber is this, it's just a fruit!
Watching Ye Luo and Sfut eat cucumbers like evil ghosts reincarnated, this can make the two girls around Meina and Lavigne greedy.
The two looked at each other and nodded, and Mina handed a tomato in her hand to Lavigne, and with her free hand she picked a cucumber and ate it with a half-believing mind, and Lavigny was not far behind.
After a while, the four of them ate up the cucumber weighing at least three or four catties in their hands.
Mina looked at the tomato in her hand, licked her lips and said, "I wonder what this tomato tastes like, is it as delicious as a cucumber?"
Sfuth snatched the tomatoes from Mina's hand without a bit of a lady, took a bite without thinking about it, his eyes widened, and after swallowing the tomatoes in his mouth, he said with a look of surprise: "Wow, this is also delicious, the taste is sweet and sandy, juicy and refreshing, I really like the sweet and sour taste!"
Hearing Sft's words, Mina and Lavigne were also very curious about Ye Luo, Lavigny couldn't wait to take a bite of the tomato in his hand, and was excited: "It's true, it's too much to eat!"
Mina and Ye Luo were ready to move in their hearts, but after seeing that the tomatoes were at least a pound in size, Ye Luo dispelled the idea of picking one, and said to Lavigny and Fit: "Just now one of us just ate a whole cucumber of about three or four, and now I have about a pound of this tomato, you can't eat it yourself, the two of you will divide one equally, which of you will share it with me? The other one will share it with Mina." Otherwise, if you can't eat it, you will waste it, and you must know that these vegetables are not cheap and cannot be wasted. ”
Hearing this, a trace of hesitation flashed in Lavigny and Fit's eyes, and after thinking about it, yes, such a big tomato will definitely not be eaten by themselves, so it is better to divide it equally.
Thinking of this, Sfried directly handed the tomato in his hand that he had taken a few bites to Mina, while Lavini gave it to Ye Luo.
In less than a few minutes, the two tomatoes were wiped out by the four of them.
"It was so delicious, so filling. ”
Mina didn't dislike the dirty on the ground, and sat down with her ass, rubbing her bulging belly.
"Take a rest first, and then see if the time allows, if you can, get some in the afternoon, go back to the city and find some restaurants to see if you can sell them at a good price." ”
Ye Luo didn't expect that the seeds provided by [Super Mall] were of such good quality, originally 100 seeds at 10 o'clock he thought it was very dark, but now it seems that it is indeed worth the money, at first he was still a little worried about the sales problem.
It's just that after he tasted the cucumbers and tomatoes, he naturally didn't have to worry about sales.
After resting for a while, Mina and the others volunteered to talk to Ye Luo, and then went back to get the baskets they had bought before that they were going to use to hold vegetables.
Ye Luo did not object to Mina's request, and directly agreed.
Mina and the others stayed in the house almost all day, either sitting or lying down, and rarely came out and walked.
Now that they want to help, Ye Luo naturally won't object, in his opinion, it's good to exercise.
While they were going back, Ye Luo began to wander around the land, counting the yields of various vegetables.
Except for turnips like ruby and white crystal, there are no more and no less, both of which are 100 pieces.
Unlike the cucumbers and tomatoes they had eaten before, unlike the eggplants that could not be eaten raw, no one could say exactly what the exact yield was.
They are not radishes that disappear when plucked, but they still bear flowers and fruits after being picked until they wilt.
Looking at the rows of fruitful cucumbers on the melon shed, Ye Luo suddenly dispelled the idea of counting, as for the tomatoes and eggplants, almost each of them is about one and a half meters high, and the top is also fruitful.
Unlike when I first planted the seeds, I didn't notice when the leaves fell at first, but now when the leaves are ripe, I find that in addition to the radishes, which bear one fruit per seed, the 100 seeds of vegetables such as cucumbers, tomatoes and eggplants harvest at least several times more than the number of seeds themselves.
Although he didn't count them all, he looked at them roughly, for example, although he planted a hundred cucumbers, he harvested at least a few hundred cucumbers so far, and as for eggplants and tomatoes, there were even more.
If you calculate it according to the weight, all the cucumbers are picked, and a cucumber is calculated according to 3 catties, at least about 2 to 3,000 catties, so on average, a cucumber can pick at least 10 cucumbers.
Tomatoes and eggplants weigh about one catty, but the yield of one is far more than 10, although each fruit is different, but there are at least about 20 to 30.
Originally, Ye Luo was still worried about how to set the price, after all, 10 points of prestige would be 100,000 if it was exchanged for money.
100,000 yuan to buy 100 seeds, and the average cost 1,000 yuan for one seed.
