Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The words "monkey wine" suddenly came to his mind. He had also heard about this from the old people in the village. Monkeys in the mountains like to ferment grapes, hawthorns, wild wolfberries and many other fruits that monkeys like to eat together.  , the wine brewed is called monkey wine.

    Monkeys are very clever, and the wine they brew is better than that made by humans. However, monkey wine is very hard to find and hard to come by. It is usually brewed in caves halfway up the mountain. Only men who go up the mountain to collect herbs occasionally discover it.  .

    He didn't expect that he was so lucky, and he suddenly became interested. He could see that there was a lot of monkey wine in the tree hole. Fortunately, he brought a few large plastic bags when he came. He was originally going to pack mountain goods, but now  It came in handy. He filled two plastic bags in a row, and he finally let go of the contents when he was satisfied with about ten kilograms.

    On the way back, I found a fallen hairy wolfberry tree. Perhaps it was because it had rained a few days ago. A large piece of fungus grew on the shady side of the dry hairy wolfberry tree. Before Liu Junhao had time to do it, the soft and tender tree fell.  The black fungus was snatched away by these naughty children, and only the bare trunk was left.

    Before he got home, he saw an off-road vehicle parked in front of his house. Liu Guangju and two people were squatting under the big tree in front of his house to enjoy the cool air. When he took a closer look, it was Boss Wang and an old man who also wore glasses.  , it seems that he is here to buy his old turtle again.

    ¡°Xiaohao, you¡¯re back, Boss Wang has been waiting for you for a long time,¡± Liu Guangju shouted as soon as he saw him.

    "The other two people also stood up when they heard the sound. Liu Junhao quickly apologized and said that he had gone to the mountains. After that, he took out the key and opened the door. He let a few people into the yard, then moved a few chairs and placed them under the big tree.

    Seeing the sweat on the heads of the three people, he remembered that he had just made monkey wine, so he ran to the kitchen to get a few bowls, and each person poured a bowl, and the rich and mellow aroma immediately spread out.

    "What kind of wine is this?!" Several people smacked their lips after drinking it. This wine tasted particularly pure and full of aroma.

    "Oh, those kids and I just got monkey wine from the mountain"

    "Monkey wine?!" This was the first time that the old man and Boss Wang had heard of it.

    "What the hell, is this monkey wine?" Liu Guangju was also surprised, and then he explained to the two city dwellers what monkey wine was.

    At this time, Xiaopi was also pulling Liu Junhao¡¯s trouser legs under the table and screaming wildly. It seemed that he was also interested in the monkey wine.

    Being a little annoyed by it¡¯s barking, and getting the little skin of monkey wine this time was considered a hero, Liu Junhao took a broken bowl and poured half of the bowl of monkey wine.

    Xiaopi licked it with his tongue, and even screamed after drinking it, which made people laugh. Liu Junhao had no choice but to give it another half of the bowl. Who knew that something might happen to him?  , Xiaopi got drunk, and chased the lambs and rabbits in the yard. The chasing lambs kept bleating, and finally hid in the sheepfold and did not dare to come out.

    After Boss Wang introduced Liu Junhao, he found out that the old man named Zhao had a great background. He was actually a retired professor from the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences. He specialized in fruit tree cultivation technology and liked to engage in aquaculture and other topics in his spare time.

    He and Wang Shengli's father were old friends, so he often asked Wang Shengli to collect some fish. This time he heard that he had found a strange old turtle and a big fire head weighing thirty or forty pounds in Daqing Mountain, and he immediately became interested.  Let Wang Shengli drive him to Daqingshan.

    Wang Shengli had always been obsessed with the old turtle, so he immediately drove Professor Zhao over. Seeing that a big professor from a provincial capital came so far to see an old turtle, Liu Junhao was a little embarrassed and hurriedly entered the house.  , it was said that the old turtle was blasted out, but in fact it was taken out of the spring water.

    "Eh?" Professor Zhao was amazed when he saw this old turtle with a big bowl. He immediately became interested and wanted to do some research on this old turtle, saying that this old turtle might be mutated.

    But after studying for a long time, he still couldn¡¯t figure out the reason, so he had to ask Wang Shengli to take out his camera and take a few photos, preparing to go back and show it to his colleagues who specialize in aquaculture.

    Of course, we had lunch at Liu Junhao¡¯s house. Before the meal, he specifically showed Wang Shengli the eel he raised. There was no difference between this eel and ordinary eels, except that it was a little fatter, so Wang Shengli didn¡¯t pay attention.

    Lunch was relatively simple. He caught three eels, each weighing half a catty, and secretly got a few fish from the spring water. He then packed them up and paired them with fruits and vegetables from his own yard. At any rate, he had four dishes.  It doesn¡¯t look like much from the outside, but every dish is served in a porcelain basin, and the portions are very generous, which is really ordinary for rural people.

    Wang Shengli was a little dismissive at first. He does aquatic products every day and has never eaten anything. Just now I heard Liu Jun say:He praised his eel as something rare in the sky and rare in the earth, but he felt very dissatisfied.

    After only one bite, he felt that all his previous aquatic products had been sold in vain. He used to often hear people say that Xiaoshu eel is better than ginseng. Even though he had been engaged in aquatic products for more than ten years, he didn't believe it, but this time he believed it. This eel  It tasted soft and boneless, and was very chewy in the mouth. It was soft but greasy, and refreshing and fragrant. After taking one bite, he immediately decided to wrap up the eel from Liu Junhao's yard.

    Of course, those common farm vegetables also have a unique taste. With the monkey wine bought by Liu Junhao, the guests and hosts enjoy the meal, especially Professor Zhao. Although he has been engaged in fruit tree cultivation technology all his life, he often works in rural areas.  Wait, but this is the first time I have seen such a poetic courtyard.

    Looking at the green trees in Liu Junhao's yard, arm-long beans are hanging crisply on the shelves, branches are broken under the weight of huge tomatoes, there are green cabbages, purple eggplants everything.  They were all full of farmhouse fun. He liked it so much that he even had the idea of ????living here to do research.

    He has been engaged in research all his life, and even after retirement, he has been working on a project to increase the income of small farmers' orchards, which is to study some fruit trees with high added value that can be planted intensively. Seeing that the backyard of Liu Junhao's house is completely deserted, he  I suddenly became interested and decided to live in the countryside for a while.

    Wang Shengli didn¡¯t go back that night. He called his friend to drive the aquatic product truck over and planned to buy all the eels from Liu Junhao¡¯s family.

    Early the next morning, Professor Zhao got up and did Tai Chi in the yard. As he gets older, his health is not very good, and his sleep quality is particularly poor. But he slept very soundly last night, and when he woke up in the morning, he was refreshed by the mountain breeze.  The lambs and puppies kept barking in the yard, and the unknown birds jumped among the branches, which made him feel comfortable unconsciously, and he became more fond of this place, and even thought of retiring here  ¡­

    At ** o'clock the next morning, the aquatic product truck called by Wang Shengli drove into the village, attracting a group of people to watch. Mao Boy led a large group of naughty children to jump into the pool to catch eels. Don't look at the slippery autumn.  They swim very fast in the water, but these naughty kids have been swimming in the water since they were young, so they are all experts at catching eels. In addition, the density of eels in the water is high, so they pick up the net and fly through the water quickly, usually  You can catch one or two.

    In the morning, the work was almost two hundred pounds, and the remaining yellow crickets became a lot clever. They all drilled into the cave and could not catch them. This made a group of bear children stop.

    Because the eel was of high quality and Wang Shengli wanted to do long-term business, he gave a relatively high price of 30 yuan per catty. This made the rural people who had been watching all morning take a breath. In a short time, he sold the eel.  For more than 5,000 yuan, this is much better than farming.

    Liu Junhao was naturally happy after selling so much money. He gave the naughty children who helped in the morning ten yuan each for their hard work, which made these children jump and scream with excitement.
