Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The peach trees in the Hundred Fruit Orchard lived up to the expectations and took the lead in bearing good fruit, much to the delight of the islanders and the improvement of their quality of life.

Fruits are rich in vitamins, which are necessary for the body, especially for people who work and live in the field all year round.

In the past, no fruit was produced on Yunsha Island, and all supplies had to be transported from outside by guò speedboat. Not to mention the troublesome process and high transportation costs, most of the tastes are very average.

As Shi Suo'er and Xizi usually say, they are afraid to compare things with each other. For example, apples and pears, which have been famous for a long time outside and are known as the honorary and high-quality specialties of the Yangtze River, cannot even match the taste and texture of cucumbers, tomatoes and other fruits that can be eaten raw from the island, not to mention peaches.

But starting today, this history is coming to an end. Fruit trees are rich in varieties and grow quickly, and it is expected that it will not be long before they can enter the era of self-sufficiency like vegetables and fruits.

And with the good omen of the peach opening, the follow-up of other fruit trees is also very worth looking forward to.

In particular, the 16 coconut trees near the Silver Beach are growing bigger and bigger at the tops, and although they are not yet ripe, they seem to have smelled a strong tropical atmosphere.

Coconut fruit also has a special advantage, that is, the shell is hard, which is not something that the beaks of small and medium-sized birds can deal with, so there is no need to equip even bird nets, which saves a lot of things.

In addition, after Xizi's puffing, Shi Suo'er had already made two wooden foot buckles and put them in the warehouse, ready to climb the tall coconut tree and pick the fruits of victory.

As for the use of a batch of peaches, Jiang Yichen has already made a general consideration. That is, some of the islands were left for their own use, and the rest were sent to the city to give benefits to the managers at all levels of Koufuduo and Dingxiangyuan.

If there is a surplus in the future, then a small amount of commercialization may be considered. For example, adding a freshly squeezed juice product to the main store of Dingxiangyuan is also a series of pastoral nostalgia products.

At present, there are various popular brands of bottled drinks on the market at the counter of Dingxiangyuan Hall, but those things are basically added with artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, etc., which are not up to grade at all.

Of course, there is only a limited amount of fruit produced on the island. It is obviously impossible to use all the raw fruit for freshly squeezed juices. It is estimated that it will have to be juiced with other fruits on the market. But based on past experience, even then, the final product will taste great.

In addition, the sweet apple pie in the current market is famous for its sweets and loves ladies and children. Or consider using island fruits and regular fruits as a mixed filling. Add a new variety such as a fruit pie to Koufudo. I guess the effect should be pretty good.

Both of the above ideas can be tried, it doesn't matter if the quantity is small, but starvation sales and limited supply can make things more expensive.

A similar precedent is the fancy yakitori in the Pastoral Nostalgia Boutique Series, which only makes 150 or 60 skewers a day. It was snapped up by diners early, and you can't buy it if you are slow in your hand.

As for the complaints of the diners, Dingxiangyuan has long been accustomed to hearing them, so it doesn't matter at all.

The harvest of the Hundred Fruit Orchard has brought new happiness to the residents of the island.

In addition to their taste, peaches from the island also show some distinctive characteristics, such as after being stored at room temperature for several days. For the most part, the flesh is still crisp and delicious, just a little softer than when it first came down from the tree, but it is far from the ripe peach in the market, which has a ball of sweet water on the outside.

Usually peaches belong to the category of typical intolerance in the large fruit family, and if you buy ripe peaches and do not eat them in time, they will change color, soften and collapse until they deteriorate in a few days. But this time the fresh peaches from the island have changed everyone's perception, look at this situation. It is estimated that the storage period at room temperature is at least one month or more.

After tea and dinner, everyone sat on the "beauty lean" on the verandah of the bamboo building to enjoy the coolness, and then gnawed a delicious fresh peach to eliminate food, to go to the heat, in the words of Shi Suo'er, it is called a peach after dinner, and the race is over the living immortals.

That's not an exaggeration. I think that the Monkey King was because he couldn't withstand the temptation of Pan Taoyuan and made a strict mistake. As a result, he degenerated from a high-ranking civil servant of the Heavenly Court who was well-paid and admired by the world to a wanted criminal overnight, and was finally suppressed, and his experience is sad and lamentable.

The reason for this. Although it is related to his usual laziness towards the ideological education and study of Heavenly Court, the charm of Peaches can still be seen.

This is true even for immortals, let alone mortals?

As an amateur gourmet, Shi Suo'er once thought that everyone's gnawing was indecent, and felt that the treatment of such a delicious and delicious fruit should be different from the ordinary goods that were usually shipped from outside. So I sliced two peaches with Lao Dou and put them on a plate, accompanied by a few red cherries, and inserted toothpicks, which looked very good.

However, this set of Dongdong was ridiculed by Xizi, saying that they were too hypocritical, and they were originally working people who did physical work, but they had to engage in some petty bourgeoisie, which made people turn their teeth back. It's as funny as a big man wearing a checkered skirt.

This metaphor made Shi Suo'er angry, and immediately reached out and pinched the back of Xizi's neck, wanting to take him down and punish him.

Kiko was not ambiguous, and the two became more energetic. Unexpectedly, in the midst of the fight, the half-pulled peach in Kiko's hand got out of her hand and fell into the courtyard downstairs.

The big white goose Weiwei was pacing leisurely in the yard in all directions, and suddenly saw something falling from it, so he hurriedly stepped forward to find out. Stretching out its flat mouth and tasting it, its delicious Cheng dù was far beyond its expectations. So he was unceremonious, and he screamed twice excitedly, and then pecked hard with his head down.

In just half a minute, half a peach is left with a hard core. Upstairs, Xizi saw it and complained to Shi Suo'er, because the number of peaches produced this time is not too much, and it has to meet various needs, so the islanders can't enjoy it at will even if they are near the water.

Such a half fresh peach was fed to the geese alive, which was really a tyrannical thing.

Of course, Whiskers doesn't think so. Half-pulled the peach into the belly, so that it immediately corrected the honor recipe list in its memory. The first place on the recipe list used to be a special small steamed bun, and the second place was the weeds in the wasabi field. Now it seems that nature should give way to this sweet fruit, which is simply the best in the goose family's vegetarian diet.

Weiwei was fascinated for a while, and when he saw Jiang Yichen coming downstairs, he immediately greeted him warmly, and asked him for the fruit he had just tasted.

Jiang Yichen was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the idiot goose wanted. Then I understood what was going on from the laughter and explanation of Kiko and Shi Suo'er upstairs. He glanced up at the two troublemakers, then bent over to face Wyver, and gave it thought work in a soft tone.

This peach is a very limited quantity of good things, and it can be used for many purposes. If you feed the geese, it is too extravagant and wasteful.

Who knew that this ideological work was not very effective, and Weiwei, who was originally quite conscious, was almost lost his mind by the temptation of food, and it still did not give up and entangled in the face of the master's patient education and persuasion. I saw that it was excited, screaming, flapping its wings, and finally stretched out its flat mouth and pulled Jiang Yichen's elastic shorts, the latter was not careful, and almost dragged it down.

Upstairs, Xizi and Shi Suo'er were still lying on the railing to watch the excitement, and when they saw the leader deflated, they couldn't help but laugh and leaned back, and they couldn't support it.

Jiang Yichen was annoyed and angry, and ordered Xizi and the others to think of taking the goose away, not allowing it to entangle itself anymore, and not allowing it to make trouble in the yard. Otherwise, the two will be punished to sleep in a bed with the goose at night. Of course, the premise is that violence must not be used, and other methods are self-sufficient.

Xizi and Shi Suo'er naturally don't want to have a history of sharing a bed with the goose, and it will be unclear in the future. So he had to go down the stairs, coaxed and persuaded the goose to take a walk outside the yard, called the snow peas to play a game of tennis, and picked fresh weeds from the wasabi field to feed it to distract it from the peaches.

It took a long time to make Weiwei stop.
