Chapter 265: Digging Ginseng

It's noon the day after returning to the mountain, how can Zhou Yu have time to cook at this time? I had no choice but to cook a large pot of bud rice and space sweet potatoes for the animals to eat, and I also gnawed two ears of bud rice and ate a red-skinned sweet potato. Thinking that the animals hadn't entered the space to play for a long time, Zhou Yu simply got it all into the space.

Seeing the changes in the space, all the animals ran wildly into the distance like crazy, and their expressions were full of joy. Only the big donkey and the second donkey were a little frightened, and they didn't know what this was.

In the end, the open-toothed rabbit jumped on the back of the big donkey and chased the other animals with two big wild donkeys.

Seeing the animals having fun, Zhou Yu was in a good mood to tidy up more than 1,000 wooden barrels, then took the solar battery outside to charge, and finally went into the space to connect the air pump and compressor.

Seeing a large area of neat oak barrels, Zhou Yu felt a sense of pride in his heart, if all the oak barrels were full of wine, how good would it be? In addition, this wine is made from wild grapes in the space, and I believe that the taste is even better than the existing ones.

When the time comes, the family and the father-in-law, as well as the family and friends of relatives and friends, send a few buckets, and drink a few sips in their leisure time, which not only satisfies the desire of the tongue but also strengthens the body, how beautiful must it be?

Thinking about it, Zhou Yu involuntarily began to giggle. There is no limit to a beautiful life.

However, if you want to make a lot of wild wine, this little wild grape in the space doesn't seem to be enough, so Zhou Yu called the big donkey over, and one person and one donkey went out of the space and began to look for wild grape vines all over the mountains.

This time, Zhou Yu did not uproot, but used a mountain opener to cut a few pieces from the vines of each wild grape, and then planted them in the open space of the space. Wild grapes are the same as domestic grapes. As long as a section of the vine is cut off, it can still continue to grow, let alone in space and in the presence of space liquid?

That's it. Zhou Yu planted another crop of wild grapes in the space, and then poured some diluted space liquid. It is estimated that after three or two days, this wild grape should also be ripe, plus the previous picking, it is estimated that there is no problem in making a few thousand catties of wine.

After finishing these, Zhou Yu took a few glances at the growth of the dozens of ginseng trees, to say that the space is worthy of the sky, only less than a day has passed, the ginseng planted before has grown forty or fifty centimeters high, with five emerald green leaves with five small compound leaves, and a light yellow-green fist-sized flower blooms at the top. It bears an oblate spherical bright red drupe.

The whole ginseng plant is full of life, giving people the feeling of infinite vitality gushing out.

As a child in the mountains, although Zhou Yu has never seen fresh ginseng, he still has a general understanding of ginseng.

If the dozens of ginseng plants in front of you are put outside, their age is at least six years or more, as for the specific judgment of its year, you have to dig it out and see the number of its "reed bowls", a "reed bowl" represents a year, if there is not even a "reed bowl". That proves that this ginseng is at least a hundred years old

Zhou Yu didn't expect that the ginseng in three or four days of time and space would reach more than 100 years, and he could laugh secretly for a few decades, even if it was a few decades of ginseng, it would cost at least five or six hundred thousand, according to this algorithm. There is no problem at all with these ginseng in the space to buy thousands of eight million.

In order to ensure the quality of the ginseng, Zhou Yu got some space liquid and poured it on these ginsengs, expecting a big surprise in a few days.

For the next three days. Every morning, when the weather is cooler, Zhou Yu carries a hoe to the field to hoe grass, and after eating, he takes the animals to the ginkgo tree by the pond to take a nap. In the afternoon, when it's hot, I just hide in the space to make wine.

After three days of hard work and the use of machinery to help. Zhou Yu was stunned to ferment ten barrels of about 2,000 catties of wine. And in the past three days, Zhou Yu also bulldozed a large area of land not far from the space pool as a special place for making and storing wine. Now the 1,000 oak barrels stand silently, waiting for the filtered wine to settle in and ferment.

Zhou Yu got up early that day, although he got up early, Zhou Yu was not sleepy at all, but was full of energy, and under a closer look, there was still a trace of excitement in a pair of starry eyes.

Pushing open the door of the house to the outside, the pure sky is glowing gray, and the morning stars in the eastern sky are shining, although the dawn is imminent, but there are still many bright or dark stars in the gray and black sky, which seem to be reluctant to pass away from the night, and still scatter a cold light.

Blowing a somewhat cool mountain breeze, Zhou Yu breathed in the fresh air full of floral fragrance, feeling the freshness and tranquility of Phoenix Mountain before dawn.

After waiting for five days, today is the day of digging ginseng, and the good or bad is in one fell swoop.

Originally, Zhou Yu planned to dig ginseng in the space for three or four days, but after all, this thing was related to the major matter of building his own road, and all Zhou Yu had some gains and losses, so he finally waited patiently for five days. In these five days, Zhou Yu didn't know what kind of ginseng he could grow into, because only ginseng less than six years old could be seen through the leaves on the outside, but more than six years old, he could only look at the underground body.

Scooping some cold spring water into the basin, Zhou Yu reverently cleaned his hands and face. Then he picked up the red cord and the small shovel for digging and entered the space.

As a child of the mountains, although he has lived in a big city for many years, Zhou Yu still sincerely abides by the rules of the mountain people.

When digging ginseng in the mountains, the heart must be pious, even if you encounter the best ginseng, you can't start digging right away, and it is necessary to clean your hands and face. Regardless of whether ginseng is spiritual or not, people should accept it with gratitude for the precious plant that nature has given to human beings.

As for tying ginseng with a red thread rope to prevent it from running away, it should be a legend full of oriental colors, but out of respect for the predecessors, the general ginseng pickers have also inherited this practice.

Zhou Yu came to the periphery of dozens of ginseng trees, and now these ginseng trees have grown a lot taller than three days ago, the leaves have some dark green, and the top flowers and fruits have grown bigger than the mouth of the bowl.

"The ancestors of the Sanqing Dao are above, the Jade Emperor, the Taishang Laojun and the gods from all walks of life bless, don't let the small ones dig out a bunch of big radish!" Zhou Yu prayed to all the gods in his heart.

In the end, Zhou Yu may feel that these are still a little unsafe, so he said in his heart: "The ancestors of Zhoujia Village, you must bless me, I promise that the villagers will become rich and live a happy life." ”

After reading this, Zhou Yu felt that he had a bottom in his heart, so he took out the red thread rope and tied it to the stem of a ginseng tree, then pulled the red thread rope with his left hand, held a small shovel in his right hand, and took the selected ginseng as the center, and began to dig into the center within a radius of thirty centimeters.

If the general wild ginseng is dug at most, it is excavated at a radius of 20 centimeters of ginseng. But Zhou Yu, the ginseng in the space, didn't dare to take this number as the standard, so he chose a position of 30 centimeters to excavate.

Zhou Yu carefully dug from the outside to the inside little by little, at this time, he didn't dare to dig too hard, so as not to cut off the ginseng, even if it was a small piece of whiskers, the essence of the ginseng would be lost, but the gains outweighed the losses.

Little by little, Zhou Yu slowly dug with a small wooden shovel. When digging ginseng, do not use gold utensils to avoid breaking the fibrous roots. Fortunately, the soil in the space is soft and there are no stones. When digging to a radius of 20 centimeters, I finally saw a few ginseng whiskers, the surface of these whiskers is full and slender, flexible, very elastic, and decorated with small pimples in the shape of millet grains.

Zhou Yu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw these small pimples, and from the mouth of the elders, Zhou Yu knew that these small pimples were called "pearl spots", and the quality of ginseng with "pearl spots" on the fibrous roots was usually not bad.

Since it was the first time to dig ginseng, it took Zhou Yu about half an hour to dig out a whole ginseng. (To be continued......)
