Song Tan Jishi

The slightly yellow and hot rock sugar juice was bubbling slightly in the shallow pot. The room was warm. Everyone gathered together to slowly peel the oranges, and the whole room was filled with a strong aroma of oranges. .

Lao Wang peeled off another orange and now separated the orange segments one by one. He couldn't help but mutter: "One pound of oranges and half a pound of skin. The skin is too thick."

"It's better to be thicker!" Party Secretary Xiao Zhu explained: "The village next door grows it. It costs one yuan a pound, so don't be picky."

"Besides, thicker skin is more durable and easier to sell locally."

One dollar a pound?

Now Lao Wang doesn't want to pick any more. Oranges grow in Huainan and Huaibei. The temperature here is low in winter. If the skin thickness doesn't change, I'm afraid it won't be able to survive until this time.

I just looked at Lao Li next door and carefully peeled off the veins on the orange petals. After a pause, he calmly took the orange petals that he had broken open back into his hands...

Hum, compared to meticulousness, he, Lao Wang, is not bad either!

Wu Lan and others sat aside, holding bamboo sticks to string up the orange segments. Qiao Qiao took it and rolled it into the pot, then quickly put it into the cold water basin nearby——

Soon, a rock candy orange was ready.

The first rock candy orange is, of course, given to my dear sister! Qiao Qiao stared at Song Tan eagerly: "Is it delicious?"

Song Tan bit into the rock sugar with two bites. The local oranges were not too sweet, and only had a slightly cool juice. Mixed with melty sweet flavor...

"It's okay." She commented impartially.

"Oh!" Qiao Qiao was not disappointed, but rather confident: "Then I'll make rock candy oranges first, and when I'm ready, I'll make rock candy strawberries!"

Song Tan was quite looking forward to this, so she nodded quickly: "Okay, okay! Let's practice, we have so many family members, and rock sugar oranges are durable, so do whatever you want!"

Last time Wulan picked dozens of kilograms of oranges, and the family ate them for several days. There was only a small pile left, so Song Tan decided to consume them as soon as possible.

A group of people worked on the assembly line, and the rock sugar oranges were made very quickly. Xiaozhu Party Secretary also tasted the nth root and sighed at this moment:

"Shitushipo...it's really impossible to plant anything!"

"Who said that?" Song Tan disagreed: "That's not what you said when you advised me to build the persimmon forest."

Party Secretary Xiao Zhu said sincerely: "If it is not connected to your rocky ground, can I advise you?"

"What's more, the taste of the old persimmon tree is still good, but it's not convenient to sell. You need to ripen it at home. Let's just eat it ourselves!"

Song Tan also knew in her heart that the land she was covering now was very strange - if the inside and outside of the mountains in Yunqiao Village were viewed as an O-shape, then the large stretch of stone slope would be the hook at the bottom.

If you look down from a high altitude, the entire terrain looks like a lowercase letter g, and the blank space between the o and the hook is the cliff, river beach, grassland, and the entire Jinhe River.

In general, it was fairly easy to manage under unified management, and it was not too strenuous for Song Tan to take care of him in the later period.

only--

"Isn't it time to build the road to Shitushipo next year?"

Time is tight this winter. Once the road surface freezes, the engineering team will be suspended. Next year, the surrounding tangled roads will also need to be repaired.

Party Secretary Xiao Zhu nodded affirmatively: "Yes, it will be easier to travel after the road is built."

And Lao Li from the old man's heavenly group spoke again: "You have a lot of land. Are you going to do in-depth processing, or are you going to sell primary crops directly?"

Professor Song and Mrs. Tang were quite silent all morning. After hearing this, they couldn't help but look at them again. Song Tan answered freely and easily:

"It depends on the situation. It's definitely easier to sell fresh fruits directly. But like the ones in Shitoupo, I plan to spend a few years planting persimmon trees and then set up a small processing factory to make persimmons."

She thought for a while and added: "The stone slope is far away, and the planting environment is not as good as ours. Generally speaking, it is mainly processing-including mugwort, wild chrysanthemums, etc. that will be planted early next year."

These are not picky about soil quality. They can grow strong no matter what and are relatively adaptable to the land there.

"As for my family... I can grow whatever I want to eat, and I can sell whatever I grow."

She said it so simply that everyone present was speechless.

At this moment, the roar of motorcycles came from outside, and it was Tian Tian who came.

Running around all winter, her cheeks inevitably turned red, but her whole body became more energetic. She turned around and untied the belt on the back seat of the motorcycle and brought over a foam box:

"I just picked it this morning. Come on, can you try it and see if it's suitable?"

The one who is excited now is the old man Tiantuan.

They were drunk last night, and in the morning they listened to Song Tan and the others seriously discussing the taste and price of strawberries, which made their hearts bleed with regret!

But what if we go back to last night and ask them if they still want to drink this wine? No one would hesitate.

It’s just that next time, next time you must savor it carefully.

"Don't be excited, don't be excited." Party Secretary Xiao Zhu cooled them down: "The taste is similar to the radish and cabbage you tasted, and it is different from what Song Tan's family grows themselves."

But Lao Zhu didn't care: "It's okay without fish or shrimp."

Besides, since they have come so many days in advance, they will always have a chance to taste strawberries. Now they should take it step by step and eat the low-end version first!

The foam box was taken over by Wu Lan. As soon as Tian Tian took off his gloves, he heard Teacher Tang's instructions: "Hurry up, rub your hands, rub your face, cover your cheeks with your palms for a while and then put them down."

The old lady has her own spirit of taking care of herself. Her skin is still fair and fair even at such an old age. Tian Tian just has to be rough in the village, but she doesn't want to be so rough all her life.

Now just be obedient and follow suit.

The old lady then gave instructions: "When I was riding a motorcycle, the cold wind blew me out. When I first entered a heated and air-conditioned room like this, I had to block it first. Otherwise, the skin on the face will easily get damaged and people will get sick easily."

But unfortunately, others were not interested and only stared at the opened foam box.

The foam box came from an unknown courier box. It was blocked by a piece of cardboard in the middle. There were two kinds of strawberries on both sides, one white and one red. When you open it, you will get a strong fragrance, mixed with a light yellow peach aroma.

"Ouch!" Lao Zhu was surprised at first: "The strawberry flavor is so strong!"

"Yeah!" Tian Tiantian nodded: "I followed the method taught by Professor Song and adjusted it little by little. The overall difficulty is not too difficult, but if you want to have good quality, you have to be precise."

"But the strawberries are really good. If I plant them later next time, they will be on the market in time for the Chinese New Year, and the price will definitely be very high."

She lamented when she talked about this: "Last year, my relatives were driving back from the city during the Chinese New Year. When they passed a strawberry field, the old lady stopped the car halfway with a basket..."

During the Chinese New Year, no one wants to cause trouble, so just buy strawberries!

The key is 60 per pound, which is annoying!

Update 1, good morning! Yesterday's chapter 1036 had the wrong name, but the content is fine. I have contacted the editor to correct it.

More than a thousand chapters, hahaha, I’m so amazing!
