After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Yun Fang, who was looking at the oblique height with her neck stretched, felt that her padded jacket had been hooked by something, so she had to withdraw her gaze and solve the trouble under her feet first.

Yun Fang bent down, grabbed the branch of the bush that hung her clothes with her right hand, and with a little force, she pushed away the bare bushes that were a little messy.

Suddenly, Yun Fang's eyes lit up, and a hard-shelled fruit the size of a thumb nail came into her eyes, and the little gray 'mist' and 'mist' thing suddenly brightened her mind.

Yun Fang knew that this inconspicuous thing was wild camellia seeds.

In modern society, because Landanxi is made of organic green 'color' food, it also pays special attention to all kinds of ancient original plants, and in a large number of relevant materials she checked, including this wild ancient camellia seed.

In the society where Landanxi is located, the industry is developed, high-rise buildings are everywhere, people's living space is getting narrower and narrower, people's survival pressure is also increasing, and health problems are increasing, so the attention to food ingredients is also high.

Among those foods that have been concerned, edible oil is the most important one.

The description of camellia seed oil by picky people is like this: Camellia oleifera is a treasure all over the body, and the tea oil made from tea seeds is a high-quality edible oil, which is rich in nutrition and has the effect of lowering blood pressure, blood lipids and softening blood vessels. Long-term consumption, human skin is delicate and moisturized, hair is black and shiny, and increases human immunity, with high beauty and health care value.

At that time, after Lan Danxi saw all kinds of introductions, I also planned to take this camellia seed oil as one of my own projects, she even investigated the processing process clearly, but unfortunately before she had time to implement it, she came here inexplicably.

Yun Fang, who thought that she had no chance with camellia seed oil, did not expect to see camellia seeds with her own eyes here, the kind of magical seeds she had only seen on the Internet pictures before.

According to the mood of "agitation", Yun Fang stretched out his arm, carefully picked the gray "Meng" and "Meng" seeds, held them in the palm of his hand like a baby, and looked at them carefully.

Yun Fang was attracted by a small camellia seed, and Yun Hua, who had walked out for more than ten steps, discovered her sister's abnormality, she stopped, turned around, and raised her voice to greet, "Fang'er, what are you looking at?" ”

"Sister," Yun Fang raised the small camellia seed in her hand excitedly, but temporarily changed her statement, "Sister, I found this thing, do you know what it is?" ”

"I'll take a look," Yun Hua said, quickly walked two steps over, she took the seed in Yun Fang's hand and looked at it carefully for a while, and finally laughed, stretched out her hands and gestured, "This is the kind of red 'flower' seed, it blooms all over the mountains and fields in the 'spring' day, it is such a size, and it is 'very' beautiful." ”

Looking at the size of most of the small porcelain bowls that Yun Hua compared, Yun Fang had a bottom in her heart, and the camellia 'flowers' produced in this area were estimated to be similar varieties to the old Yunnan camellia in her time and space. In the past, Lan Danxi planned to take a look with his own eyes, but he didn't expect to see it in such a way today.

It's just that there are things to do and things to do, and people here eat meat oil, and they don't have the habit of eating vegetable oil, let alone any oil extraction equipment. And although her people came here, those oil extraction equipment also generally knew the principle, but if it was made, it was not something that she, a non-engineering graduate, could do in a short time, at least not as easily as boiling salt and pickling radish.

Looking at his sister's happy and emotional eyes, Yunhua's eyes also lit up, "Could it be that this is the baby that my sister said that others don't know?" ”

Yun Fang imagined the beauty of the camellia 'flowers' all over the mountains here on a 'spring' day, nodded involuntarily, shook it uncertainly, and asked, "Listen to my sister's meaning, there are many such seeds on this mountain?" Didn't anyone think about picking it? ”

"No," Yun Hua shook his head in confusion, "We have this kind of thing on our side, but I haven't heard of any use, who has nothing to do to pick it." ”

"Then," Yun Fang thought for a moment and said vaguely, "I feel that this thing is indeed useful, but I can't remember how to use it for a while, let's pick some and go back for backup." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you," Yunhua smiled and said happily, "Fang'er said to pick, let's pick, maybe one day when Fang'er wakes up, this thing will become something delicious." ”

Her sister's unconditional trust made Yun Fang's heart suddenly feel that this thing is a treasure, and she also knows what its finished product will be like in the end, and she hasn't even tasted it yet, but she can't turn it into a delicacy immediately for the time being.

Alas, oil press, oil press, why can't I build it? It seems that while modern civilization has brought convenience to people, it has also made people's hands-on ability worse and worse, and they have become more and more dependent on mechanical tools. The more Yun Fang thought about it, the more annoyed she became, annoyed that she was still not prepared enough, and she was ready to carry out the camellia oil project, why didn't she learn more about the oil press by the way.

Yun Fang's 'color' of chagrin fell on Yun Hua's eyes, but it was understood as another meaning, and she said carefully, "What? Did my sister change her mind again? It's okay, you don't like this, let's find out if there are any other good things. ”

Yun Hua's words made Yun Fang clean up the frustration in her heart, and secretly made up her mind that the oil press was also made from scratch, and others in ancient times could make it, but she didn't believe that she couldn't make it if she understood the principle. Now, if you collect it first, you will always be able to use it later.

Having made up her mind, Yun Fang Yun Fang shook her head and said, "No, we'll pick it today." Later, when we have picked enough sour plums, we will pick this one and go back with a full basket. ”

"Okay, good, good, listen to you, listen to you," Yunhua shook his head with a wry smile, pointed to the front and said, "Now, can we go first?" ”

"Let's go, let's go pick dried sour plums first." Yun Fang bent down and put the back basket on her body again, followed behind her sister, and walked towards the tall sour plum tree.

Yunhua is right, most of the fruits on the sour plums are still there, but the fruits that have ripened in autumn have lost their original moist color after the cold midwinter, and some of them are hanging on the branches without "fineness".

After the two sisters picked the dried sour plum in the small half back basket, they picked the wild camellia seeds together, until the two back baskets were full, and then they laughed all the way home.

By this time, the small stones had prepared a large tank of bitter well water, and the mountains had dug out more than half of the radishes buried in the ground. Dad brought back fine and clean sand, and my mother also made vinegar and boiled a large porcelain bowl of sugarcane water.

Seeing the two sisters coming back panting with their backs, the mother greeted curiously, "Look at you sisters, what is this back, looking so heavy, can the dried sour plum be so heavy?" ”

Dashan stepped forward without saying a word to take the back basket on Yun Fang's back, glanced at it, and immediately shouted, "Mother, what kind of dried sour plum is this, it's obviously the seeds of those red 'flowers' on the mountain." ”

"Who said it wasn't," Yunhua put down the basket with the little stone's hand, panting slightly, "These are the treasures that Fang'er found, and we picked them up together." ”

At this time, Yun Fang breathed evenly, and she waved her hand to explain, "I just felt that this thing was so heavy, it might be a good thing, so I brought it back by the way." Mother, you find a place to put them away first, our main task today is not to take care of them. ”

Although everyone didn't understand that Yun Fang picked these seemingly useless red 'flower' seeds, when she mentioned boiling salt, everyone left their doubts behind them and looked forward to what happened next.

The mother harvested the camellia seeds, and the father also carefully cleaned the yard in front of the small ear room, and all the preparations were ready, and the official work of boiling salt could begin.
