【Chapter 042】 The dawn of getting rich
Because he had just experienced the sales peak of the Mid-Autumn Festival, although Liu Rui did not have much rice wine at home, Liu Rui still decided to stop brewing for a few days. There were several large barrels of sake lees piled up in the winery, enough to feed the pigs for several days.
Liu Rui, who doesn't have to make wine, can't sleep lazy, because Ma Changquan will rush to Liu's house on time every day to collect the vegetables. For several days in a row, Ma Changquan saw that the chef of the restaurant seemed to be quite satisfied with the vegetables taken back, so he resigned himself to his fate, and went out early every day, so as not to be seen by his boss who looked at him unpleasantly.
After a night of experiments, Liu Rui finally figured out some rules for items to enter and exit the Shennong space, and there were some things that needed attention.
Every time he uses his mind to collect items from the outside world into the space, it consumes a certain amount of Liu Rui's spirit, and Liu Rui will feel dizzy when he uses his mind to collect items from the outside world. The mental power consumed has little to do with the size of the item, and it is a bit like a fixed consumption. Therefore, Liu Rui is not able to endlessly take in things from the outside world into space.
In addition, in order for objects from the outside world to enter the space, they must be readable. For example, if a tree grows in the ground, Liu Rui naturally can't put it into the space; But if it is dug out, Liu Rui can easily put it into the space.
The tomatoes hanging on the branches, although they are not big, Liu Rui can't put them into the space no matter how he gets them, so he can only pick them obediently.
After weighing the dishes every day, Ma Changquan will hand Liu Rui a new order, which will write the variety and quantity that will be needed for the next day, so that Liu Rui can prepare in advance.
Liu Rui has not yet spoken on the phone here, and the mobile phone is even more out of reach, so he can only use this primitive way to connect his work, and if he wants to enter the modern office mode, he has to wait for a while.
After a few days of exploration, Liu Rui and Zhang Guizhi picked vegetables every day at a faster pace, and it took less than two hours to pick more than 200 catties of vegetables, clean them up and put them under the osmanthus tree.
After picking vegetables, Liu Rui took a hoe to the backyard to continue digging tree pits, hundreds of tree pits, completely relying on Liu Rui to dig them one by one, which is a lot of work. At this time, Liu Rui misses the omnipotent sense of existence in the Shennong space.
Still, when he thinks about it, he still has to dig hundreds of tree pits honestly.
The power of the rising sun was still very small, and the golden sunlight passed through the gaps in the branches on the mountain peaks, appearing in the backyard of the Liu family like a sharp sword. The mist that had not yet dissipated covered the golden lightsabers like layers of thin veil, leaving them without the power of the scorching heat, leaving only a gentle aura.
The early insects take advantage of the cool weather to come out to feed, but they don't think that sentence is very reasonable.
'The early bird gets the worm, and the early worm gets eaten by the bird!' ’
During the breeding season, the birds flew out into the depths of the woods, jumping up and down on the ground and among the grass, occasionally picking up one or two fat bugs, and then flapping their wings into the woods. In a few moments, the young and melodious sounds of the chicks came from the depths of the jungle, and the sound of them chirping and fighting for food was the most beautiful symphony of the morning.
On the other side of the stream, a few pheasants were nesting in the stone cave, crying 'wow', and there was a posture that they would not stop until the silence of the early morning in the mountains and forests was completely broken. ** month, the field chicken is the season of courtship breeding, every day the male frog is constantly agitating his belly, making a loud noise, attracting the attention of the female frog.
Sometimes, Liu Rui was woken up in the middle of the night, and he couldn't wait to pick up the net pocket and go out to catch all these annoying guys. Of course, it's just a matter of thinking.
The burrows of field chickens are often in the stone caves of mountain streams, and field chickens squat at the entrance of the cave when they are courting or foraging. As soon as there is a stir, they will quickly escape into the depths of the cave, and it is not easy to catch them.
In the past few years, you can see the figure of field chickens everywhere in the mountain stream, when Liu Rui was greedy, he would carry a small fishing rod, and he could get several of them in half an hour by the stream, and take them back to let Zhang Guizhi either braise or cook porridge, which is extremely delicious.
However, with the gradual rise of game meat craze in recent years, restaurants in the city have paid high prices for purchases, and many villagers have gone out all night in summer to catch field chickens.
Don't look at the field chicken, it seems to be quite flexible, that's just under normal circumstances.
The frog catchers walked by the stream with a miner's lamp on their heads, and when they heard the cry of the pheasant, they could immediately determine the location of the pheasant, turn on the miner's lamp, and the snow-white light immediately shone on the pheasant lying at the mouth of the cave foraging.
The bright lights made the field chicken stunned for a moment, squatting quietly in place and motionless, and the frogman was caught in his pocket. Experienced frog catchers can catch at least forty or fifty of them in a night, and they can weigh about twenty or thirty pounds. The prices given by restaurants in the city are quite high, more than a dozen yuan per catty, and sometimes there are hundreds of yuan in a busy night.
In Liu Rui's memory, two or three years ago, the action of catching field chickens reached its peak, and sometimes at night, the mountains were full of bright lights.
Although the field chicken is a national second-class protected animal, driven by interests, the villagers can't take care of it so much. Even some village cadres and party members secretly went out to arrest them, and then asked relatives and friends to help sell them.
Even if the Forestry Bureau is on guard all day, there is no way to stop this kind of indiscriminate hunting of field chickens, and as long as there is a market for restaurants in the county, poaching will never stop.
However, the good times did not last long, only two or three years later, after the villagers' carpet search, the suitable size of field chickens have disappeared, only some half-sized field chickens remained, and they could not be eaten at all. Some people go out all night, tired and half dead, and they can catch three or two big cats and kittens, which is not enough for the dolls at home to stuff between their teeth, let alone sell them to restaurants in the city.
In this way, the operation of catching field chickens in the village slowly stopped, but after this catastrophe, the number of field chickens near Shangliang Village decreased sharply, and it was no longer the same grand scene that could be seen everywhere at the beginning.
Two or three years have passed, and the whole village is surrounded by the mountain streams near Liu Ruijia because of the topography and the Liu family's orchards and ponds, and there are still many signs of field chicken activities. Since he went to high school, he learned that the scientific name of the field chicken is 'tabby frog', which is a national second-class protected animal, and wanton hunting and killing is a crime, Liu Rui's mind about eating wild field chickens has become much lighter.
However, if the field chickens in the space can be successfully raised, Liu Rui does not mind making a small field chicken farm near the pond as a pretext, and turning the field chickens he raised in the space into a breed raised by sincere and benevolent workers in an open and open sale.
Listening to the cries of the chickens, Liu Rui had some thoughts churning in his heart.
After working until about ten o'clock, Liu Rui began to look back and check the results of today's labor, pack up his tools and go home to rest.
After a few days of hard work, Liu Rui has already dug most of the tree pits, and after a few more days, he can plant them after the saplings are in place.
Liu Rui, who was digging a tree pit in the backyard alone, naturally wouldn't know that now the entire Shangliang Village was in a state of twitching.
When Ma Changquan came to collect food in the morning, his immediate boss Sun Hao actually asked the driver to follow the pickup truck in the restaurant to Shangliang Village. Although Ma Changquan was full of questions, he could only keep it in his heart, and after Liu Rui's house packed the vegetables, he returned to the county seat by himself.
Sun Hao, who stayed in Shangliang Village, was accompanied by the driver and Wang Huaguo, and Sun Hao began to provide the villagers with the index requirements for the purchase of ingredients in the south of the 'South Beauty' in front of the courtyard dam in front of the village committee.
Local chickens and ducks, lake fresh river fish, mountain delicacies,......, but all the ingredients produced in Shangliang Village, without industrial pollution, and without pesticide and fertilizer residues, all belong to the acquisition scope of the 'South Beauty' restaurant. Of course, before large-scale acquisitions, small-scale sample procurement and testing are naturally necessary.
However, even a small-scale purchase is enough to make the villagers fall into a beautiful vision.
Originally, Sun Hao was not very optimistic about going to Shangliang Village to buy ingredients, but the experience of the past few days and a long conversation with Zheng Dahai yesterday made him change his mind.
In the past few days, the vegetables purchased from Liu Rui's home have satisfied the chefs of the restaurant, and the customers who come to eat also feel that the taste of the restaurant's dishes has been greatly improved, for which the purchasing department has also been praised by the company.
Yesterday afternoon, Zheng Dahai and Sun Hao had a long conversation, so he finally understood that Shangliang Village is actually an undeveloped treasure land.
In the past, the catering market in Qingshan County was so big that it was more than enough for restaurants to buy all kinds of ingredients in the towns and villages near the county seat and on the north bank of the Tongjiang River. But. In the past few months, the catering market in Qingshan County has shown a trend of rapid expansion, and the supply of raw materials has become more and more tight.
Even Sun Hao himself found that the price of raw materials in the county market has risen recently, and sometimes even if you have money, you may not be able to buy satisfactory ingredients. This is because the county's rapidly growing population has put pressure on production in the surrounding towns and villages, causing prices to rise slowly.
In this case, Zheng Dahai set his sights on Shangliang Village on the south bank of the Tongjiang River, which can be described as far-reaching, which had to make Sun Hao aware of the gap between himself and Zheng Dahai. However, what Sun Hao didn't know was that Zheng Dahai's actions were all ideas generated by Liu Rui's unintentional touch, which could be regarded as a mistake, but it made Sun Hao feel a little unfathomable.
In any case, a series of great changes on the north bank of the Tongjiang River finally began to affect Shangliang Village, a remote mountain village, so that the villagers of Shangliang Village vaguely saw the dawn of making a fortune.
