Chapter Seventy-Six: The First Ripening of the Sea Dragon Fruit

A seabed tens of meters deep and a 3,000-meter-deep trench are by no means the same thing. Now even Song Jiao can stay in it for a few minutes without any equipment, but she can't stay in it for too long. This is also the difference between a congenital master and an acquired master.

"It's really ripe!" Zhang Heng held a yang-green, long-shaped fruit about the size of a watermelon from under the water, and came up!

During this time, it was Song Jiao who was taking care of this sea dragon tree. Counting the time, from planting to hanging fruit, it will take less than a month and a half to mature, right?

In forty days, such a big fruit can be produced, Zhang Heng estimates that there is no such variety on the earth!

For the growth of the sea dragon tree, at the beginning, Song Jiao almost didn't look out, from germination, to grow into a small seedling with the thickness of an adult's arm of one and a half meters, it only took seven days. Some of the branches and leaves even look long. After a week, the branches begin to spread and the stems thicken.

On the eighteenth day, the sea dragon tree blooms its small pink flowers in the sea, and it takes about three days to bloom, and then it only takes 12 days for the fruit to grow to the size of a watermelon.

Song Jiao looked at the sea dragon fruit in Zhang Heng's hand, was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "How do you know that it is ripe?" ”

Usually, Song Jiao basically comes to the Sea Dragon Tree Garden once every morning and afternoon, if I remember correctly, the fruit that Zhang Heng is holding in his hand is the largest fruit growing in the entire orchard.

"Whether it's ripe or not, don't you know if you taste it?" Zhang Heng said with a smile. "Go, get a knife out. Let's try it first! ”

Zhang Heng walked around the sea dragon tree garden just now, and now the size of each sea dragon tree is basically two meters high, and the mouth of the main sea bowl is thick. The branches spread out, about three meters, and the dragon fruit does not grow on the branches, but is held by a stem.

On each sea dragon tree, there are at least hundreds of large and small sea dragon fruits. Moreover, the characteristics of the sea dragon tree are similar to those of cucumbers and tomatoes, and the fruiting and flowering are carried out at the same time.

Li Jiao has been looking at the sea dragon fruit for a long time, if Zhang Heng doesn't come today, maybe the sea dragon fruit that Zhang Heng just picked will enter her stomach tomorrow.

Take a knife to cut the dragon fruit, the color of the flesh inside is dark green, the water is like jelly, and the feeling of coconut meat is almost the same, but there is not too much water, which makes people look at it, and there is a kind of appetite and desire to taste.

"Looks good!" Zhang Heng cut himself into pieces, and under the sun, the flesh of the sea dragon fruit felt like an emerald.

Song Jiao ignored Zhang Heng, took a knife and cut herself into pieces, put it in her mouth and took a small bite, whether it tastes good or not is not something that can be felt just by looking at the appearance. Whether it's really delicious or not, you can only know if you taste it yourself!

"How?" Zhang Heng looked at Song Jiao and asked.

Song Jiao frowned and thought about it, shook her head and nodded, didn't speak, but ate all the sea dragon fruit in her hand!

"Isn't it ripe? I don't think so. Zhang Heng muttered to himself, put the sea dragon fruit in his mouth and took a small bite. The first feeling is that it is very sweet, how to describe the taste, similar to dried kiwi or cantaloupe, very bite, but not as dry as the two dried fruits, and the secreted mucus has a kind of lubrication. When chewing, in addition to sweetness, it will also leave a little salty taste between the mouth, which makes people appetite!

"It tastes good!" No wonder Song Jiao took a breath and didn't say anything, and ate the whole piece of sea dragon fruit. The density of the flesh of the sea dragon fruit seems to be relatively large, and the weight of a whole sea dragon fruit is at least 40 catties or more, and a piece of pulp cut into triangles is also 2 catties.

Ordinary people can only eat a piece of sea dragon fruit, and then they will feel that they are too much to eat, but they will feel that they are very happy.

"It's pretty good, it's better than the fruit I've eaten before." Song Jiao wiped the juice from the corners of her mouth, and the corners of her mouth turned up.

Zhang Heng nodded and said, "Black girl, do you think our sea dragon fruit, if it is promoted, will it be sought after by people?" ”

"I guess so!" Song Jiao thought about it, she wasn't sure, after all, people's tastes are not the same, for example, some people like to eat apples, some people like to eat bananas, radishes and cabbage have their own loves, what you like, others don't necessarily like. Finally, he added: "However, I really like the taste of 'sea dragon fruit' anyway, and I decided to eat only sea dragon fruit for breakfast and dinner every day!" ”

"Let's eat!" Zhang Heng smiled, even if you can eat one a day, you will eat thirty dragon fruits in a month, and you can't eat yourself, but one dragon fruit is forty catties in size, can you eat it in one meal? Now that the sea dragon fruit is still in the early ripening stage, in a few days, it will be time to spray one after another dragon fruit. By that time......

Baihua Fairy said that the sea dragon fruit only hangs fruit from mid-June to mid-November every year, and it only absorbs nutrients and does not bear fruit at other times. The current sea dragon tree is just a new period, counting it in five months, each tree only grows 300 sea dragon fruits, and the total output of the 100 sea dragon trees is 30,000 sea dragon fruits, a sea dragon fruit weighs 40 catties, and 30,000 is ...... 120,000 catties!

The first thing that Zhang Heng thought of was the commercial value of sea dragon fruit. Isn't it just to sell it for money! The wealth brought to him by the Dream Group always makes Zhang Heng feel a kind of 'illusory', which is not as real as the feeling of 'planting melons and getting melons and planting beans and getting beans'.

A sea dragon fruit, Zhang Heng and Song Jiao ate it with their bellies open, only ate a quarter, and then they couldn't eat it!

The next day, he picked a few more dragon fruits, and asked Song Gang to take them directly to a top laboratory in Singapore for laboratory testing.

The results are very exciting, the nutrients contained in the sea dragon fruit, more than all the known fruits, among which the sea dragon fruit, not only contains a large number of beneficial vitamins A, B, C needed, but also contains the amino acids needed by the human body, experts pointed out that long-term use of sea dragon fruit can greatly improve the human body's physique, and has an inhibitory effect on a variety of diseases!

"Don't be afraid to spend money, find the world's top authority to conduct a comprehensive laboratory test on the dragon fruit, and then let them issue a laboratory quality inspection report!" After Zhang Heng received Song Gang's call, he immediately ordered. People rely on clothing, horses rely on saddles, and if you want to be able to sell dragon fruit at a high price in the future, these 'packaging' and the like are indispensable.

With these laboratory quality inspection reports, the sea dragon fruit will be on the market, and it will be invincible! As for whether it can be sought after by people, it depends on the hype!.
