762 large snails
(Thanks to friends for the boring idler, the grassroots on the reverse side, kyller0059, Xiaoxian Youtian, Murong Ziyan, Phoenix Butterfly, and Ant Fat Monthly Pass for encouragement)
The problem of the big guy's collective illness has been solved, and Liu Heming's heart has also been relaxed.
He is really worried about what other conditions will occur in the ranch, which will directly affect the operation of the ranch. Don't look at yourself now, you seem to be very strong, but you can't withstand too many waves.
Yasuda Orino stayed here for another two days before leaving with joy.
In fact, even when he was here, Liu Heming didn't accompany him much and let him play freely. He spends more time paying attention to his two babies and seeing if his two babies still have any magical abilities.
Judging from the current situation, his two babies are much more capable than himself. People Alex draw whatever they want, and draw it themselves to see their luck.
Although there is a little jealousy in my heart, this incident can be regarded as a bit of an unexpected gain. Dwyer was very careful to test everyone's blood samples that day, but none of them were detected, which proved that these miraculous crops in his current ranch were not detectable by current scientific and technological means.
Don't underestimate this, he has always planned to engage in functional drinks, if the ingredients of illegal drugs are detected in future drinks, they will definitely not be able to sell normally.
Still in a good mood, he walked around the ranch. Look at the condition of the greenhouses, look at the growth rate of blueberries, and look at the small sweet potatoes.
The little sweet potato is the first magical item you get, and the most capricious of all crops. Judging from the current growth rate, this year's harvest period will be around the end of the year.
So this product is the most capricious, people's growth period is up to their own decision, even if you others help no matter how useless, you have been willful to each side.
"Fernando, how is the planting situation this year?" After a cursory turn, Liu Heming asked casually after meeting Fernando.
"Boss, the weather conditions this year are much better than last year, not as dry as last year. Although the weather is still a little hot, it will not affect the growth of those crops in the pasture. Fernando said with a smile.
"That's good, it seems that the construction of these water systems in our ranch has finally had some impact on the climate conditions here. Liu Heming nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, boss, it rained heavily last time, and there was a waterlogged area in the western part of our ranch. The soil is a little different from the rest of the place, and the water settles very slowly, so do you need to drain it manually?" asked Fernando.
"Let's go over and see first, how big is the area?" Liu Heming asked after thinking for a while.
"It's seven or eight acres in size, and it was supposed to be filled in when there was a new building that needed to be laid. Fernando said.
When I came to the place that Fernando said, it seems that the situation here is really not very good. Although there is not a lot of stagnant water, the area is large.
It stands to reason that it has been a long time since the last rain, and even if there is stagnant water here, it should evaporate, but there is still a lot of stagnant water here, and the deepest part has reached half a meter, and even if it is a shallow place, it is more than 30 centimeters.
"Boss, I dug up some dirt on this side yesterday, and it looks like it's going to turn into a swamp. Originally, the grass on this side rotted quickly. Fernando said, and asked Liu Heming to look at the mud he had dug up on the side.
"Leave it alone for now, just let it be like this. There is very little water in our pasture, and now there is standing water here, which proves that the groundwater level is slowly recovering. Liu Heming said with a smile.
"Anyway, our ranch is big enough, and it's not bad for such a place to plant. In the future, it would be nice if the water here could stay forever. ”
For the arid Xiangshui Town, such a naturally formed swamp area is difficult to understand, but Liu Heming can accept it very calmly.
It is certainly difficult under real natural conditions, but I have a system, and the current situation must be the result of the slow transformation of the pasture by the system.
If you want crops to have a really good harvest, you can't just rely on attribute bonuses, you also need an external objective natural environment. In the past, I didn't know much about the system, and I always felt that the system was very stiff when I was working.
In fact, it is the result of my own assumptions, and the system has been working hard, but the changes brought about by these works are too subtle to be noticed.
It's been a long time since I had the system, and now that the climate on the ranch is getting better, and there are suspicious swampy areas here, it's all thanks to the system, and it's where the system really works.
Even if you water your crops in imitation of natural rainfall, the effect is a little different from real rain and abundant groundwater.
And it only took such a short time for the system to make such a significant change in the situation of Xiangshui Town, which also indicates that the originally dilapidated Xiangshui Town has finally rejuvenated its real vitality.
"Boss, in fact, our ducks and geese can also be stocked on this water. By the way, and those snails, which have also bred a lot now, should we think about the sales situation next?" asked Fernando.
"Let's go over and see, I didn't care about these snails thrown over there. Liu Heming smiled and nodded.
When you come to the house where you keep snails, if you have a dense phobia, you may feel numb in your scalp when you see these snails. Even Liu Heming was a little uncomfortable when he saw it just now.
"Boss, these snails are really big, and they reproduce very quickly. Fernando said.
Liu Heming nodded, these snails were really big, the same as Alex's small fists. Such a large snail has surpassed their female and male parents.
Needless to say, this is also the result of the slow transformation of the system. I don't know how many generations these snails have been bringing, anyway, there are snails in this room large and small.
Liu Heming is a foodie, such a big snail, after the initial discomfort, it became drooling.
picked up the basin on the side, directly picked up more than a dozen, filled a large basin, and then he walked home happily.
The normal clean-up procedure should be to give these snails a hunger strike to let them get rid of the debris in their bodies. But that takes a bit of time, where can Liu Heming wait.
He used the soil method to soak these snails directly in salt water, and stirred them often when soaking. It is to wash away the mucus on the outside of the snail shell, and also let the salt water stimulate the snails and allow them to remove impurities from the body.
"Why are these snails so big?" Sasha came over with a little fuss.
"Hehe, they usually eat well, they are all vegetable leaves in our greenhouse. Let's try it in a moment and see what the snails taste like in our own home. Liu Heming said with a grin.
The snail here was still soaking in salt water, and he contacted the crew again to see when his daughter would finish work. It's okay, today's shooting went well, and people have now packed up their things and left. It is expected that in another three or four days, all the scenes will be filmed.
By the time Alex returned home, the snails had been almost cleaned. Liu Heming grabbed one and let Alex play with it himself, and then began to deal with the snails.
Cleaning is only the first process, and you have to take out the snail meat. He doesn't know how to do it at the level of a big meal, he thinks it should be good to stir-fry.
The cleaned snails were put directly into the pot of boiling water, and when the water in the pot boiled again, he turned off the fire and fished out the snails.
The size of the snail is too large, so it is much easier to get the meat. You don't have to be so particular about eating at home, Liu Heming directly pierced it with chopsticks, and then took out the snail meat with a slight turn.
Cut off the guts with scissors, a large piece of snail meat, and Alex was drooling when he saw it. The flesh is fair, and it is very appetizing when you look at it.
After processing these snail meats, Liu Heming cut them into slices, and Alex was so hungry that he wanted to grab a piece and dip it in soy sauce to eat.
"Little guy, don't worry, these meats are not cooked yet, you can taste them when Dad has fried them." Liu Heming said with a smile.
"Well, I'm going to peel the onion and garlic for Dad. The little one nodded happily.
"Okay, you're busy, I'll just wait to eat. Sasha glanced at the busy father and daughter and said.
"It can be done in a few minutes. Liu Heming said with a smile.
Stir-frying can be said to be the most basic cooking technique in Chinese food, and for the current Liu Heming, it is too cooked to be cooked.
After putting the fried snail meat on a plate, I first served a slice to Alex. The little guy was not too hot, he ate it in a big gulp, and then gave Liu Heming a thumbs up.
In the past, the little guy squinted and smiled when he was happy, but now the little guy will praise people.
A large plate of snail meat seems to be a lot, but there are many people who eat it. Of all the dishes, snail meat is the fastest to bottom.
"Shenshen, what do you think of the taste of this snail meat?" Liu Heming looked at Tang Shenshen and asked.
"The meat is delicate, crispy, tender and juicy, and it seems that after stir-frying, it can lock in more juice in the meat, and it tastes great. Don said deeply.
"Shall we also sell in the restaurant in the future? But we still have to think carefully about what side dishes to use. Otherwise, a real plate of snail meat will require at least four large snails. ”
"Yes, you can do your own research. However, the number of snails is still a little small, and it cannot be served in open quantities, so it is also a specialty of our restaurant. Liu Heming smiled and nodded.
He didn't know that after such a long period of precipitation, he had finally entered the real harvest period, anyway, it was almost a happy event recently.
