Chapter 136: Sanssouci Grass
Leaving a bird to bask in the open area, everyone continued to walk. Everyone was slightly surprised by the density of fish in the Chu family's powerful ditch, but it was nothing. This is rare, but it is not uncommon, and some environments are particularly suitable for them to grow, and they will become dense. This is the same as human beings, some big cities are millions or even tens of millions of people at every turn.
"Are these strawberries just over a month? Grows a little faster than average. A botanical expert asked.
Chu Jiaqiang nodded and said, "Not bad!" It's a little troublesome at first, but when it grows up, it's a lot easier, just don't worry about it, and just look at any lesions from time to time. ”
The expert nodded, and that was indeed the case with strawberries. In fact, he wanted to ask Chu Jiaqiang how he managed these strawberries growing so well. If only a small part of it were a small part, they wouldn't find it strange. But the strawberries on these four or five acres of land are almost all like this. Then Chu Jiaqiang has to manage the technology. The ones in their experimental fields are also so good, but they are almost like ancestors, can it be bad?
It's just that this involves other people's secrets. In the industry, you can find out the reason yourself, but it's better not to ask, it's an unwritten rule.
"It's a pity! It's not without results yet, otherwise it's nice to stay in it and eat for a while. Li Quan said.
When they arrived at the river beach, they saw the daylily that had not yet bloomed, and everyone looked sideways, secretly saying that Chu Jiaqiang was really generous! It seems that this man has no ambition or fighting spirit, but he is surprising in his actions.
In fact, the old village chief, the second uncle and others still didn't understand Chu Jiaqiang's intention to plant this large piece of daylily, and Chu Jiaqiang didn't tell them. These daylilies are actually mainly for people to enjoy. If you say this, you will definitely be scolded to the fullest. Wasting so much land, energy and financial resources to build such a large piece of land is just a word, which is absolutely incomprehensible to people in the countryside.
"Tell me when the daylily blooms." Li Quan said.
Chu Jiaqiang nodded, knowing what this guy had in mind. But he also regarded Li Quan as a free propagandist, and everyone just took what they needed. A win-win situation is the best.
"You buy daylily?" The second uncle couldn't help asking. What he's most worried about now is that this daylily will rot on the ground by then, what a pity? Don't worry about strawberries, Tang Fatzi asked to leave it to him again and again. In addition to eating and giving away by yourself, as well as small business, you can't give it to other big buyers.
"Purchasing? What is the use of my procurement? Li Quan was stunned for a moment. Puzzled, he asked.
Chu Jiaqiang was a little helpless, rural people couldn't get rid of that kind of small-scale peasant thinking, everything was practical and practical. He had to let them once again not worry about this daylily, they would definitely not lose money, it was worth the money.
Daylilies belong to the lily family, and the flowers are as beautiful as lilies or daffodils, and because they often bloom all over the field, they are beautiful when viewed up close and spectacular when viewed from afar. So everybody likes it.
In fact, many people only know the ornamental value of daylily, but they do not know that this plant also has medicinal value and practical value. Therefore, Chu Jiaqiang will rest assured that he will plant so much. He thought to himself, let everyone watch when it blooms. Harvest a mood. Alternatively, you can pick the buds and dry them and sell them for money.
One of the plant experts is Professor Sun of Agricultural University, who seems to understand the feelings of the farmers, and smiled and reassured the second uncle and others: "Don't worry, Sanssouci can be both ornamental and can be sold for money." A very economical crop. ”
The old village chief frowned and asked, "Isn't it daylily?" Sanssouci grass? Haven't heard of it. ”
Chu Jiaqiang explained to them again, daylily was called "forget worry grass" and "daylily" in ancient times, and because its flower buds resemble golden needles, it is also known as "golden needle vegetables".
There are actually allusions to the origin of these names.
Legend has it that before the uprising of Chen Sheng, the leader of the peasant uprising at the end of the Qin Dynasty, due to his poor family background and illness, his whole body was swollen, which can be described as poverty, hunger and cold, so that he often begged for food to live. After a period of time, Chen Sheng's swelling slowly subsided, the disease was cured, and his body became stronger.
Later, he and Wu Guang organized a peasant uprising and became the first peasant leader in history. In order to thank the yellow woman for her kindness, Chen invited her to live at home permanently, and called the daylily the forgetfulness grass.
When Chen Sheng and Wu Guang led the peasant rebel army to capture Chenzhou and build the capital to claim the king, the soldiers trampled the vigorous daylily into a bad shape in the chaos, and there was a local girl named Jin Needle, who saw this situation and was very sad, so she carefully managed and cultivated it, and as a result, these daylilies died and came back to life. The trees are long and elegant, full of charming flowers. In order to commemorate the golden needle girl, people named the daylily as the golden needle cabbage.
In addition, there is another biography.
Legend has it that during the Three Kingdoms, Hua Tuo treated Cao Cao, when he was about to leave in Suqian, he sprinkled a big golden needle, and then grew a lot of plants with yellow flowers. In honor of the miracle doctor, people call this plant goldenrod. And because of its yellow flowers, it is also called daylily. Its petals are thick, the color is golden, the fragrance is rich, the food is fragrant, fresh and tender, smooth like fungus, straw mushroom, high nutritional value, is regarded as "the treasure on the table".
"When the daylily is about to open, it can be picked and dried, and it can be sold for about fifteen yuan a catty. Because the shelf life is relatively long after drying, you will not spoil even if you leave it at home for a year and a half, so you don't have to worry about them not being able to sell because they are unsalable. Professor Sun said again.
Hearing that the experts were like this, the second uncle and the others also dispersed their psychological worries.
Chu Jiaqiang summoned the money turtle out again and met with everyone. This golden turtle not only has a thick shell, but also has an invincible skin. Or this guy sticks one side of the skin to the other, one side is thick-skinned, and the other side is shameless. For that little bit of spiritual water, it's really out of the way.
"This money turtle is really big enough, I really don't know how many years it has lived." Chen Wu rubbed his eyes and said, during this time, he was always forced to open his eyes wide, and now he is a little itchy.
The money turtle pointed Li Quan with a camera at it, and this guy was not stage frightened, and twisted his neck and put on a few poses that he thought was good.
When several young people saw that there was a wooden bridge in the reservoir, they ran to row boats one by one. The old man walked across the bridge under the leadership of Chu Jiaqiang to the top of the island.
Seeing that the four of them were playing chess selflessly, and they also brought their own tea on the side, they were really chic, which made them both envious of the old man.
"Huh? Chen Wu, where are you going? Chu Jiaqiang ran Chen Wu back and couldn't help asking.
"This place is really a fishing paradise, I'll go back and bring my fishing rod and eat fish tonight." Chen Wu said excitedly. Hearing that he was eating fish again, Chu Jiaqiang sighed sadly in his heart.
