Chapter 182: Lotus Peng

Luo Tong peeled off the lotus canopy, and there were about twenty lotus seeds in one lotus canopy, all of which were white and tender. The tender lotus seeds are crispy and sweet, and they taste very good, especially in Qingshui Village, where lotus flowers have never been planted, let alone fresh lotus seeds.

Luo Tong ate more than a dozen lotus seeds raw like this, but later Sheng Qiwu stopped her, meaning that these lotus seeds can also make a lot of food, so Luo Tong gave up.

Luo Tong saw that there were quite a lot of lotus flowers in the lotus pond, so he proposed: "Let's pick some and go back, let's go back and peel the lotus seeds ourselves, okay?"

For Luo Tong, Sheng Qiwu is always reluctant to refuse, let alone just picking a lotus pod. The two of them picked and picked in the lotus pond, and soon there were many green lotus canopies in the cabin.

The mountain has been steadily following the wooden boat, and Luo Tong saw that it was swimming well, so he was relieved. She touched Dashan's head, peeled a lotus seed and stuffed it into Dashan's mouth. The mountain chatted and chewed, and his eyes lit up, and he swam towards the middle of the lotus pond.

Luo Tong only thought that the mountain was his own joy, and he didn't take it to heart. "Brother Sheng, let's pick so much, how can we take it back later? We didn't bring the basket here. ”

Sheng Qiwu smiled and glanced at the lotus canopy in the cabin, "It's okay, when the time comes, you will guard the shore, I will go to Weihong, and we will take a tricycle to transport it back." ”

The mountain swam to the middle of the lotus pond, and I was not satisfied with this lotus pod, and I was not satisfied with that, it was not big. It had just seen that the little white thing had been peeled out of these, and the mountain swore that it would find the biggest one and eat enough when the time came.

Swim and swim until you reach an area with a large lotus leaf and look at the big lotus canopy between the lotus leaves. Dashan's eyes lit up, and he swam to the middle of the lotus leaf at an accelerated speed, and quickly and accurately bit off the big lotus canopy, and held it in his mouth and went in the direction of Luo Tong and them.

At this time, Luo Tong and the others were already preparing to return to the shore, but they didn't know that at this time, the mountain suddenly emerged from the water, and there was a big lotus canopy in their mouths. The hairs on the mountain's head were all wet, dripping with water, and it shook its head, and the water droplets splashed everywhere.

The mountain opened its mouth, and the lotus pod fell into the cabin with a "snap". Luo Tong looked at the big lotus canopy and was a little stunned. "Brother Sheng, is the lotus pod so big, how many lotus seeds should there be in it?"

Sheng Qiwu frowned, "It looks like Wang Lian's lotus canopy, right?" I heard you say that Wang Lian's fruit is estimated to be five or six hundred, right?"

He said this, Luo Tong also remembered, she weighed this big lotus canopy, this is estimated to be three or four catties, right?

While the two were talking, the wooden boat docked. Sheng Qiwu tied the wooden boat and went ashore to find Chen Weihong to borrow a tricycle. Luo Tong, who had nothing to do, simply moved these lotus canopies to the shore, and Dashan also came to help.

Luo Tong, who was busy and finished sitting on the ground, didn't care at all that his clothes would be dirty. She was now very curious about Wang Lian's fruit, and she wanted to know what was the difference between this Wang Lian's fruit and ordinary lotus seeds.

Taking advantage of Sheng Qiwu's absence now, Luo Tong simply pulled out the big lotus canopy. The shell of this Wang Lianlian canopy is really a bit hard, and Luo Tong took three points of force in his hand to break the shell.

The fruit is round, a bit like a pea, unlike the usual lotus seeds, which are oval-shaped. Luo Tong tentatively pinched one and put it in his mouth, powdery, feeling a lot of starch, not as crisp and sweet as lotus seeds.

Seeing that Dashan and Luo Xiaocheng were both looking at him, Luo Tong smiled and put a few Wang Lotus Fruits in front of them. Dashan stuck out his tongue and rolled a few small fruits into his mouth, and after smashing it a few times, it wasn't the first taste it tasted, but it was not bad.

So when Sheng Qiwu came over on a tricycle, he saw Luo Tong, Dashan and Luo Xiaocheng sitting in a triangular posture. Luo Tong was holding a big lotus pod in her hand, she and Dashan and Luo Xiaocheng each had a lotus leaf in front of them, Luo Tong held the lotus pod like this, put one in front of Dashan, one in front of Luo Xiaotang, and then put another one in front of herself.

Every time Luo Tong put down Wang Lian's fruit, Dashan didn't eat it all at once, but didn't eat it all at once until he had accumulated five or six of them. Luo Xiaotang is not like this, it is Luo Tong put one and he eats one.

There are a lot of fruits in this Wang Lian's lotus pod, just after a while, Luo Tong estimates that Dashan and Luo Xiaotang should have eaten more than 100 lotus seeds, but Luo Tong visually measured that this is not yet one-fifth, and now it seems that Wang Lian's fruit can be really high-yielding.

Seeing Sheng Qiwu coming, Luo Tong hurriedly wrapped the lotus seeds in front of him with lotus leaves. Dashan opened his mouth, rolled all the lotus seeds in front of him into his mouth, and then followed Sheng Qiwu. As for Luo Xiaotang, the little lotus seed in front of it had already been eaten up by it.

Sheng Qiwu loaded these lotus canopies into the car, and when he was about to leave, a tourist who had been watching for a long time walked forward. "Hello, is this lotus pond contracted by you?"

Luo Tong leaned on the side of the car, "Yes, old gentleman, do you have anything to do?" She saw that this old gentleman had been over there all along, and he didn't come over, so she didn't ask anything.

As soon as he heard that it was the lotus pond contracted by themselves, the old gentleman was obviously relieved, "That's the case, my wife has been coughing recently, can I buy some lotus pods with you, and I'll go back and peel fresh lotus seeds for her to make porridge and drink?"

Luo Tong thought it was a big deal at first, but when he heard that it was this, he simply agreed. As for the price of this lotus pod, she was really a little unsure, so she turned her attention to Sheng Qiwu for help.

At this time, Sheng Qiwu was in charge. He groaned: "At present, the lotus seeds on the market are generally fifty yuan a catty, and we have a lotus pod here, and there are more than 20 lotus seeds in a lotus pod, and you can give five yuan for a lotus pod." ”

The price of five yuan is really not high, which can be said to be the cheapest of all the things produced by Luotong. The old gentleman didn't bargain, and happily pulled out a hundred and bought twenty lotus pods.

There are one and there are two, originally everyone was a little itchy when they saw Luo Tong picking lotus pods, but now when they saw that the old gentleman had bought lotus pods, everyone gathered around. The central meaning of what you say is that they also want to buy this lotus pod.

Luo Tong was in a hurry, and the lotus pod could be sold to them, but they had to go to the lotus pond to pick it themselves, and after picking it, they would settle accounts on the shore. As soon as he said this, the wooden boat immediately became a fragrant bait, and everyone wanted to experience the pleasure of shuttling in the lotus pond for themselves.

Sheng Qiwu saw that everyone was gathered around the lotus pond, just waiting for the big guy to pick the lotus pods over, and he simply sent these lotus pods back first.
