Waiting for Chu Jiaqiang and the others to leave, the old village chief Wu immediately hurried home and convened a meeting of the village elders, he knew that the development opportunity of his village had come.

"There are a lot of wild grapes in front of you, do you want to pick some?" One person asked. He comes here almost every year, and he knows a lot about it.

Chu Jiaqiang had heard of a lot of mountain grapes here before, but he didn't know where they were, and he used to come here for the hawthorns. The mountain grapes are available in their own village, so there is no need to come all the way here.

Hearing wild grapes, most people's eyes lit up, they have heard of wild grapes, but they have never seen them, let alone eaten them, and now they have the opportunity to cherish them.

"Good! Go and see what the wild grapes are like. ”

"Yes, it's good to see it, since you're here, it's a pity not to go and see it."

"What's there to see? Isn't it just a few fruits? It's okay to eat a few, but your teeth can be sore and soft if you eat too much. Chu Jiaxiong said with a nonchalant expression. When I was young, I was more enthusiastic about these things, and at that time I went with a snakeskin bag, and came back with a big bag, throwing it away as I went. When I first picked it, I was often greedy and desperately picked. It's miserable on the way back! I had to throw some, and there wasn't much left of it.

Li Quan and the others have crooked mouths and noses, got! I was despised by this kid again.

Seeing everyone's response, Chu Jiaqiang had no choice but to let the man lead the way: "That's good!" Since everyone wants to go, Jiahong, you lead the way. I don't know the exact location of the wild grapes here, so it shouldn't be far away, right? If it's too far, it's free. ”

"Not far away, just in front of the valley. Very much, definitely familiar now. Chu Jiahong said immediately.

When everyone came to the valley, the valley was not big, full of shrubs seven or eight meters high, many of which were crawling with some grape vines, and clusters of purple-black wild grapes were hanging, which was very attractive.

"So much?" Even Chu Jiaqiang was shocked.

"Everyone takes what they need! The main safety is on the line. Lu Qing sent everyone away.

"Uncle Chu. You climb up and pick it up, and we'll pick it up below. Little Bud immediately spoke. The two sisters and brothers are very familiar with Chu Jiaqiang, but their father is not so close.

Chu Jiaqiang didn't speak. Climb up with a bag and pull bunches of ripe wild grapes into the bag. Many ladies below tried them one by one, and they felt very good. Compared with the previous purchase, there is a little more sourness, not only does not affect the taste, but also has a more pure.

At this time, the wild grapes are indeed ripe, and everyone will feel delicious when they eat them, but they should not eat too much, otherwise they may be so sour that they don't feel it in their mouths.

"Robber, do you think this wild grape can make wine?" Ye Caiping asked suddenly.

When Chu Jiawan and the others heard this, they also looked at Chu Jiaqiang tightly, obviously having that meaning. Making rice wine in the countryside is not a big deal, especially in some backward villages. There are also some masterful brewing techniques passed down from family to family. But almost no one makes wine, first, maybe not, and second, rural people almost always make wine to satisfy their appetite, and they are not used to drinking these "Western wines".

Chu Jiaqiang's scalp exploded. These people aren't going to make wine again, are they? This is a very troublesome job, and Chu Jiaqiang doesn't like it very much.

"No, grape winemaking requires high quality of grapes, and wild grapes are definitely not good, because they have a strong sour taste." Chu Jiaqiang shook his head without thinking about it.

Many people see wild grapes for the first time and are desperately picking them. Soon his backpack was full. Chu Jiaxiong and the others smiled when they saw it, and said to them: "I dare to guarantee that you will regret it." ”

His words are not unfounded, there is still more than half a distance ahead, and he is carrying thirty or forty pounds of things, which is very fatal. Not to mention that they are city people, even if they are from the countryside, they have to travel lightly. This is not as good as before, in the old man's generation, buying salt and paying grain had to be carried over the mountains and mountains.

Sure enough, after walking for about an hour, some people couldn't stand it anymore and threw some away. Anyway, Chu Jiaqiang also said that these wild grapes can't be preserved for a long time, and it is impossible to bring them back to the city to eat. I can't eat much in just two or three days. They regretted picking so much just now, and now they feel like a waste of throwing it away, and they have been carrying it for more than an hour, and they are also a little unwilling.

After passing through a bush of wild banana forests, Chu Jiaqiang asked everyone to rest for a while, and then cut down some wild banana trees with knives with Chu Jiaxiong and others. There are not many people in this place, and this wild banana forest is also huge, and many of them have matured on the trees.

"There are seeds in this wild banana, Sister Ye, be careful!" Chu Jiawan reminded.

"Seeds?" Many people were surprised that bananas have seeds and many people heard of it for the first time.

Chu Jiaqiang had no choice but to explain to them that because there was no one to manage the wild bananas, they could not remove the buds below in time for a certain period of time, causing them to pollinate successfully, so they had seeds.

"Hmmm! What are you doing here? Chu Jiaqiang couldn't help but wonder when he saw a tourist picking some raw ones to tear them down.

"Because it's raw, you can take it home. It's hard to bring when cooked, and you may not be able to eat it when you go back. Take it back and let the family also see it, they have all seen seedless watermelons, and they probably haven't heard of seeded bananas. The guy threw away some of the wild grapes in the bag and put the wild bananas in it.

When the others heard this, they didn't say a word, and hurriedly fought for some.

"Hey! Don't argue! Aren't there many more out there? Li Quan shouted.

"Old village, I'm going to have to trouble cutting some down again. This is a good thing, you can't buy it outside, so you have to take some back. Lu Qing said.

"Huh! Odd! You can all eat the seeds, I ate two, but I didn't. "Miao Huo doesn't believe in evil, so he picked up another stick and ate it, who knows that there are still no seeds.

Chu Jiaqiang explained to them with a smile that the reason why the bananas in the market have no seeds is that in addition to artificial budding, it is also cultivated by the kind of wild bananas that Miao Huo is eating now.

The pollen on the stamens in banana flowers is very underdeveloped and cannot be pollinated. Therefore, the fruit that bears fruit is seedless. When we take a bite of a banana, we can also see some small brown spots in the center of the flesh, which are small "seeds" that have not developed and degenerated.

The bananas we eat now are bred from wild bananas. Wild bananas can produce hard seeds, but some of them can produce seedless fruits without pollination and fertilization, people like to eat this seedless banana, so they use it, after a long time of selection and cultivation, it is developing in the direction that people want to have no seeds, and finally breeds the current seedless banana.

"I see! Bananas are originally seeded. "Many people suddenly realized.

"Yes! I was also surprised at first! Later, I checked the information and found that this evolutionary history is actually the same as watermelon. Chu Jiaqiang smiled. (To be continued)
