Chapter 21: Bitter melon is sweet as honey

21. Bitter gourd is sweet like honey

Zhang Xiaoqiang then went to the portable farm again, picked up a bitter gourd and threw it in his mouth, wow, it was still as bitter as ever, the kind of bitterness that could not be said, it was so bitter that it made people desperate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Keep eating, and make sure that the more you eat, the sweeter it gets. The so-called extreme of things must be reversed, and bitter must be extremely sweet. ”

Congratulations, the energy has increased by 500.

Although Xiaoshen said it very philosophically, Zhang Xiaoqiang was still deeply skeptical. This spiritual power can save people at a critical moment, and it can make one's mental outlook look radiant, and it seems that there are no other uses for it.

Bitterness is bitterness, hardship is hardship, Zhang Xiaoqiang gritted his teeth and ate another one, it is still bitter, but it doesn't feel so bad.

So I ate another one, and it was strange, and I only felt a little bitter.

Eat, I'll eat again. It's strange, the mouth begins to be sweet, and the slightest hint of cool sweetness spreads from the root of the tongue, and an incomparably refreshing feeling overflows the whole body in an instant.

Obediently, it's really the opposite.

If you don't eat it, it's wasted, I ate violently, I ate wildly, looking at the bitter gourd vines of a plot of dozens of square meters densely hung like a small pendant full of green and crystal small bitter gourds, Zhang Xiaoqiang ate more and more energetically, and the spiritual power in his body soared one by one.

"Master, master, enough, enough, don't eat too much at one time, eating too much bitter gourd will also cause fire poisoning."

"This bitter gourd was originally a vegetable that clears away heat and detoxifies, defeats the fire and reduces the heat, if you eat too much, it will catch fire, Xiaoshen, you are distressed that I will eat all your bitter gourd."

Zhang Xiaoqiang has never eaten such a sweet and greasy bitter gourd, and the more he eats it, the sweeter it becomes, until he can't eat it anymore.

Zhang Xiaoqiang burped and said: "I'm dead, I can't eat anymore today, I will continue to eat tomorrow, Xiaoshen, the spiritual power value in my body has risen from zero to more than 60,000, why haven't I upgraded yet?" ”

"Master, it's still a long way from upgrading, if you want to upgrade from the Spirit Base Mirror to the Spirit Breath Mirror, this spiritual power is worth reaching 128888 points, and if you have love, you will have it."

"It's really a money mini, Xiao Fall is a little doubtful of my own choice now, taking root in the countryside and engaging in agriculture can really make a lot of money and make a fortune?"

"Of course, it's a must. The seven or eight billion people in the world have to eat as many things as they have to eat every day, the pigs that are eaten can circle the earth's equator several times with their mouths and tails, and the sheep that are eaten can climb up from the earth one by one, and they can climb to the moon on this staircase. Therefore, agriculture is really a sunrise industry with unlimited prospects. ”

"It's still the rising sun, I can't even take out 10,000 yuan now, and this cowhide is about to burst. I promised Uncle Dayong to give him 10,000 yuan as a deposit, I can't be untrustworthy. Xiao Shen, you tell me, what is the most valuable thing on your body, I will pick some and sell it for money, and I should be in emergency. ”

"Master, look at you, you really can't hold your breath, don't we still have a lottery ticket that won the jackpot of 100,000, and this 10,000 yuan will make you short of breath?"

"Xiao Fall, you also mentioned that the lottery ticket let the water to soak rotten, the damage is too serious, nine times out of ten it is not able to redeem the prize, spliced together and plastic, leave a souvenir, prove that I once had 100,000 yuan. When I returned to the village, I was embarrassed to see Uncle Dayong, so I had to avoid him. But he can hide from the first year of junior high school, but he can't hide from the fifteenth. Sooner or later, this serious problem will have to be faced. ”

"Xiaoqiang, who are you talking to naturally?" Li Dayong hummed a little song, his face was full of red, and he swaggered over.

Zhang Xiaoqiang's heart tightened, and he smiled with him: "Uncle Dayong, I ate too much at night, and I had a little stomach trouble, so I went to make it convenient first, and I was out of company." ”

"Hurry, Xiaoqiang, where's the money?" Li Dayong stretched out his hand, and at the same time blocked Zhang Xiaoqiang, so that he couldn't slip away, "I heard that you are a strong boy, and the girlfriend you talked about in college is still the daughter of the deputy mayor of the provincial city, so much money should not be difficult for you, your future father-in-law is in a high position, and it is not a matter of moving his mouth if he needs money to spend?" ”

"Uncle Dayong, I broke up with my ex-girlfriend before graduation, and I mentioned what I did with all these former glories, 10,000 yuan is trivial, but I don't have change for you, either Uncle Dayong I will give you 100,000 and you will find me 90,000, or I will bet all the 100,000 yuan on you. When I get the 200,000 together, how about we settle the accounts together? ”

"Qiang Zai, you blow up the cowhide, and you still have 100,000 yuan, I forgive you for not being able to take out 1,000 yuan. In the past few days, I heard that you run to the county seat every day, where do you need to run to the county seat if you want to withdraw money, then can't the Agricultural Bank, credit cooperative, and postal service in Jintian Town withdraw money? You must have gone to the county to find a way to raise money but didn't get it, right? ”

"Uncle Dayong, how can you underestimate people, give, 100,000 yuan is here, take good care of it, and it's your responsibility to lose it." Zhang Xiaoqiang handed the plastic lottery ticket to Li Dayong.

Li Dayong was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Qiang Zai, what do you mean?" Trick me? Bullying me for not being illiterate, uninformed, and writing a check to me is not such a tattered piece of paper? ”

"Uncle Dayong, you look at it carefully, this is a lottery ticket that won the jackpot, you have to go to the provincial capital to be able to redeem the prize, I will deposit 100,000 yuan for you here, what do you have to worry about, Uncle Dayong, I was born and raised in this Jintang Village, Chunxiang and I played together, although they are not brothers and sisters, but they are all from the same village, better than brothers and sisters, I am still a few months older than Chunxiang, how can I allow Uncle Dayong to be confused and push my sister into the fire pit, Uncle Dayong, I have the bottom in my heart, and I will definitely do what I promised you, But I also have a condition, a requirement, I will not help you pay off your gambling debts for no reason. ”

"I know this, you are short and can't find a daughter-in-law in the city, go back to the village to start my Chunxiang's idea, okay, I don't have any opinion, as long as Chunxiang doesn't dislike you for being short, I won't let you pay it back in vain, I will deduct it from our Chunxiang's bride price, then Chen Haonan promised to give me one million, although marrying a girl is not a business, Qiangzai, you give me another 900,000, this Chunxiang is yours."

Zhang Xiaoqiang's eyes widened: "Uncle Dayong, you sold Chunxiang cheaply so cheaply, 1.2 million is too little, 12 million is about the same, but the money is on me, whether to marry your Chunxiang or not is not up to you, everything depends on my mood, now you are begging me to help you, so you must first agree to my conditions, the first point must be to quit gambling, the second point is not to interfere with the free love of children, especially Chunxiang, she is the village flower of our village, I plan to sign her and let her be the image spokesperson of our village, The treatment, naturally, will not lose her, it must be much better than going to work outside, but within five years, you can't announce your personal emotional and marital status, otherwise you will have to pay a lot of money according to the contract. ”

"What? What image spokesperson? Qiangzai, you can't protect yourself, you have to go home to gnaw at the old after going to college, you are short and I will put it aside for the time being, if my Chunxiang really follows you, I am worried about drinking the northwest wind with you. ”

"Uncle Dayong, you look down on me, I don't refute you, everything is based on facts and achievements, I have been back in the village for less than half a month, you just wait slowly to see a small change in our village in three days and a month, and a big change in a year. No, Uncle Dayong, you have sound limbs and strong physique, and you can't wait for a good life to hit you, you have to work hard with everyone. ”

"What? Can you dig a golden doll out of the dirt? It's better for me to play a few cards for a year. I know that there is a very precious and valuable grass on this mountain, and one can be sold for hundreds of dollars, but unfortunately the number of wild ones is too small, if it can be planted artificially, like alfalfa grass, sowing grass seeds in the ground without caring about it can grow wildly, then we only need to plant a few acres to have no worries about food and clothing, eat and drink spicy. Li Dayong said mysteriously, as if he had really discovered some thousand-year-old treasure.

"Uncle Dayong, what kind of grass are you talking about? Can it be worth so much? Cordyceps can't grow in this place. ”

"It's a shame that you're still a top student of the Agricultural University, I see that your book is in vain, tell you, you don't know where to find it, or tell you, this grass is called Soul Rejuvenation Grass, and a pound of dried products can be sold for hundreds of thousands, which is more expensive than gold."

The resurrection grass is dendrobium. What did I think it was, this high-achieving student who could stump my agricultural university? However, Zhang Xiaoqiang did not break Li Dayong, let him continue to be proud, Zhang Xiaoqiang said in a tone of admiration: "Uncle Dayong, I really can't imagine it, you still have a secret recipe to get rich, why don't you contribute it earlier and let the whole village plant this soul grass to make a fortune?" ”

"The people in the village look down on me, and I look down on them, it's really a dog's eye to look down on people, but I declare that you don't include you here. I secretly experimented with artificial cultivation in my backyard, but unfortunately it all failed. Otherwise, would I, Li Dayong, be so poor and looked down upon so much? ”

After sending Li Dayong away, Zhang Xiaoqiang crossed Erlang's legs and lay back on the mat spread in the cabin, Dendrobium, Dendrobium, if you can plant this Dendrobium in a short time, the number is not much, but it can solve the urgent need in front of you.

I am a high-achieving student of Agricultural University, and this Dendrobium officinale is very demanding on the environment in which it grows, but can such a little difficulty scare my high-achieving student of Agricultural University? No way.

Zhang Xiaoqiang entered the dream in a daze, yes, sleep beautifully, and go into the mountains early tomorrow morning to look for wild dendrobium. Looking for some to come back to breed, time is not waiting, taking advantage of the good years of youth, it is the time to show off your talents, to show your ambitions, one by one, it is too slow, I want to raise fish at the same time, while planting strawberries, but also at the same time planting this expensive soul rejuvenation grass. With a multi-pronged approach, it seems that taking off the hat of poverty and making a fortune is just around the corner.

Thinking about it, Zhang Xiaoqiang showed a smug smile on the corner of his mouth in his sleep, wait and see, sooner or later, not only the whole village will be impressed by me, but the people of the world will respect me because of my outstanding contributions in the field of agriculture.

Is it not in height to have ambitions.

Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't have the kind of dream that only one male protagonist and one female protagonist lingered until dawn.

A heart-piercing pain woke Zhang Xiaoqiang up, not a stomach ache, but a toothache, not only a toothache, but the whole face was swollen, and they all said that the toothache was not a disease, the pain was really terrible. After eating too much bitter gourd, he even got on fire, with a toothache, Zhang Xiaoqiang covered his cheeks with his hands, looking like he was in pain.

"Xiao Shen, save me, I can't stand the pain."

"Master, this is the price of greed, bitter gourd is delicious, but you can't eat too much, you just wait for the fire to subside slowly, I can't help you."

"Xiaoqiang, what's wrong with you? Why is the face so swollen? Stung by a wasp? Yan Yufang couldn't help but smile when she saw Zhang Xiaoqiang holding a bun on his face.

"Master Yan, you still have the heart to joke with me, I have a toothache, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much that I can't speak, you, do you have bezoar antidote tablets, three yellow tablets and other defeated gunpowder, find some for me to eat."

"I don't have these medicines, but I know a partial room for treating wind and fire toothache, which is to dig some bitter gourd roots, wash them and stew them with white tofu, drink soup and eat white tofu, and it will be fine after eating a few times."

"It's bitter gourd again, and I won't eat bitter gourd again."

"Xiaoqiang, ask you to help you go home to live, you don't stop, you sleep on that floor, get caught up with damp poison and get angry, Director Yan is right, I'll dig some bitter gourd roots to stew tofu for you, Director Yan is not an outsider, you go home to live, are you still afraid that Director Yan won't eat you, you will sleep in Xiaoyu's room." Anyway, your sister won't live at home when she goes to college. ”

"Aunt Lan is right, Xiaoqiang, you better move back home, if you break your body, I can't afford this responsibility."

"Mom, it's good that I live in my small villa, I can guard my fish pond in the future, and I can also guard the strawberries, the renovation of the fish pond will start in a few days, and the strawberries will be planted in the greenhouse, and the ground will be leveled."

"Xiaoqiang, you are really a fool's dream, don't invest money in renovating fish ponds, and don't spend money on building strawberry planting greenhouses? Where do you get all this money from? Mom doesn't doubt that you have the ability to raise this fish and grow this strawberry well, but without the capital, everything is a fantasy. I advise you to be pragmatic, at home to help me and your father to take care of the two acres of cabbage at home, this cabbage grows fast, more than a month can be cut down and pulled down the county farmers' market for money, your sister is admitted to the university in September to ask for a sum of money for tuition, I see, the others are unreliable, can not be counted on, only these two acres of cabbage is the most reliable. Last time, because of the heavy rain, your father and I just planted a lot of cabbage seedlings and roots, Qiangzai, you have to go to the county seat to give your sister food, by the way, buy some cabbage seeds and come back to make up for the rotten seedlings. ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang ate the stewed white tofu with bitter gourd root, felt that the toothache was slightly relieved, and ran up the mountain with a bamboo basket.

"Xiaoqiang, what are you going to do?"

"Go up the mountain and look for the baby." Zhang Xiaoqiang said a little mysteriously.

"Qiang Zai, the people in the village say that you have lost your mind, it doesn't seem to be false at all, alas, your father and I don't have any hope for you, there is a bottomless cave on the mountain, you can be careful, no one will save you if you fall in." Wu Yulan felt uncomfortable when she saw her son doing crazy and unreliable things all day long, but having a stupid son watching it is better than not seeing people in life and not seeing corpses in death, Zhang Xiaoqiang is crazy to let him go, although he is very distressed in his heart, but what can he do.

Zhang Xiaoqiang searched carefully on the dense forests, cliffs and rocks of several mountains behind the village and did not find the shadow of the dendrobium, it seems that rare plants are rare, if they are easily found, then they are not called rare species.

The rarer the medicinal materials, the more difficult it is to cultivate the precious medicinal materials in batches, if I successfully cultivate it in batches, the money is not all for me to earn alone.

Don't be discouraged, if you can't find it today, you will find it tomorrow, and if you can't find it on the mountain behind the village, you will go to the Xuefeng Mountain area near the county seat to find it. I don't believe I can't find a few wild Dendrobium officinalis.
