"You can make a fortune by growing good land! Not to mention land that requires big livestock, just bamboo fungus. In the first year, you buy some from others, pick some yourself, and make fungus for planting. In the second year, you harvest a bunch and plant them again. ,The third year……"
The head of the village looked at Hanhan and shook his head. Who would have thought that valuable bamboo fungus could be grown acre by acre? Aren’t they all looking slowly in the bamboo forest?
After harvesting rice, planting ramie and rapeseed requires large livestock. Planting bamboo fungus depends on the number of people in the village.
After thinking about it, Zhu Wentian said: "Tremella can also be grown, can't it? Once you have mastered the planting method of bamboo fungus, it will be much easier to grow white fungus and fungus. They require lower technical requirements than bamboo fungus planting."
"Growing Tremella fungus is a little cheaper than bamboo fungus. The price of gray fungus is not too high. We are not here to make money. Tremella fungus is delicious. I have picked it before and it is crunchy. Is it too late to plant it now?"
When the village manager heard that there were delicious things that could be grown, he agreed. Like bamboo fungus, it is difficult to buy it if you have money, and it has a price but no market.
Tremella fungus is similar to bamboo fungus. There are less white ones and more black ones. Black ones can be seen in the market.
"There's enough time." Zhu Wentian nodded: "Now is the time to buy Tremella fungus at a high price and write to the palace to ask them to help.
We need fresh white fungus and gray fungus, please hurry up and bring them over. We will use the bag cultivation method to grow them. Basswood ones won’t work, so the time has passed.
We are looking for cork oaks nearby. We will take them next spring, plant them, and put them directly outside without tunnels. The climate here is suitable. "
Zhu Wentian knew that there was Tremella fungus locally, and there were wild ones in many places in Anhui Province. The key was that no one went there to collect them, and the people were busy.
Wild Tremella can be obtained in almost all cities in Anhui, including Xuancheng, Wuhu, and Dangtu.
At the same time, there are also many cork oaks, and many white fungi are obtained from them.
Planting with cork oak segments is equivalent to wild ones, and the yield is far inferior to that of plant substitutes.
There are no plastic bags for material replacement cultivation, and thin oil paper is used instead. Fresh Tremella fuciformis is needed to obtain seeds, and there are glass bottles in the village.
The head of the village kept nodding, yes, go to the palace, he said: "Let's tell the palace, give us a pound of fresh white fungus, next year? Will the yield be high?"
"This winter will do. Plant them piece by piece, layer by layer. If you give one pound, you will get ten pounds."
Zhu Wentian actually wanted to give it back a hundred kilograms, but he felt that it couldn't be done like this. Ten kilograms is already good, and it should be used for growing wheat and rice.
"Okay, I'll write." The headmaster brought the Four Treasures of the Study next to him and motioned to Hanhan to help him grind ink.
He no longer works hard for money, he just wants to eat. If he can't buy it, he will grow it himself and eat it every day after growing it.
“Remember to buy hawthorns at the beginning of autumn. The hawthorns come out just in time. We can make canned hawthorns and candied haws, and we also need to make medicine.
Tremella fungus with canned hawthorn is simple and delicious, sour, sweet and crisp, I'm even greedy after talking about it.
Arrange the beehives in winter to avoid too many dead bees. Bee hives will be slow to emerge in the coming spring, so some of them should be placed in the greenhouse. "
Zhu Wentian took the opportunity to say what he thought, for fear of forgetting.
Breeding and planting, there is a lot of time and attention required. If you want to be free, you can't make money, and you can't enjoy new things.
Those who work hard are sometimes more tired than those who work hard. Those who work only need to exert their strength, while those who direct have to consider many things.
"Remember, I'll write it down." The chief responded.
…
At dawn the next day, the villagers went to the two acres of bamboo fungus planting land in Shanshen Temple to harvest bamboo fungus. One acre harvested more than 700 kilograms of fresh bamboo shoots.
The current weight of one kilogram is nearly 600 grams, so compared with Zhu Wentian's planting, the yield is not reduced, which is normal, but the yield is not high.
After collecting, continue to wait, and you can collect it twice, that is, three times in two years. The first time is the most time-consuming.
"Plant fifty acres, keep the rest for eating, and send twenty pounds to the palace." Seeing that there were no outsiders, Zhu Wentian stopped pretending to be stupid.
As a result, his friends stood by and said in perfect agreement: "Grow, eat, give away, hey hey hey hey!"
Zhu Wentian: "..."
"Hahahaha~~" the villagers laughed.
Then people from the Prince's Mansion, who had gotten up late, came looking for him. Dogs barked, and villagers brought twenty kilograms of bamboo fungus to greet him.
The people in the Prince's Mansion stood where the dogs were barking and did not move forward. The head of the house made an agreement with them, deliberately saying this to leave them in suspense.
The people in the Prince's Mansion thought that the master was here, but they were unlucky and fell into a trap.
Their purpose is to protect the village, not to find and arrest the master, just knowing that the master lives here.
"You are here just in time. There are twenty kilograms of bamboo fungus here. I have a letter to send to the Prince's Mansion."
The head of the village said to Zhu Taiyi, meaning you should eat quickly and bring something to deliver after you finish eating.
"Zhu Taier and I will go." Zhu Taiyi understood that he also had something to give, about speeding up currency circulation and taxation.
In the future, whoever dares to mention that the world's products are rationed and does not compete with the people for profit will be able to refute it.
After they had finished eating, they took a boat to leave. The two of them sat on the boat and looked at the bamboo fungus in two baskets with lids on them for shade.
"Such a good bamboo fungus, right? It costs ten cents each?" Zhu Taier took a look and immediately covered it.
"Fifteen cents, seven cents are collected in the village. Now Xiaqiu Village collects it, and all the bamboo fungus from other villages is sold." Zhu Taiyi knew the price.
"That's profitable." Zhu Taier thought the price was too high.
"You go looking for bamboo fungus alone, and you can't find a few in a day. You take it home and wait for someone to come and collect it. If the quantity is small, the person who receives the goods will definitely lower the price."
Zhu Taiyi doesn't think that looking for bamboo fungus is better than working normally, unless he is not busy and needs a large quantity to negotiate the price with others.
He was actually right. Zhu Wentian and a large group of his friends searched for more than 70 of them in one day, with different qualities.
Calculated in terms of labor, these people's efforts are not worthwhile.
"This is the first time I heard that bamboo shoots are weighed according to their size. Aren't they all bought according to their size?" Zhu Taier weighed the basket.
"It must be a species. I heard someone mention it in a chat. It seems to be about the same size."
"How to plant bamboo fungus? There are no seeds. The letter the director gave you is not sealed with lacquer, can we take a look?"
"Go back and show it to the prince before you read it." Zhu Taiyi disagreed. The lack of a lacquer seal meant that the content was not afraid of being leaked.
But he still didn't want to watch it, just in case the prince arrived and casually asked, "Have you watched it?" 'How to answer?
The villagers in Xiaqiu Village did not consider what the messenger was thinking. They were busy planting bamboo fungus and following the same method as before.
They were happy. The fact that the village was not short of money did not mean that it was not short of good things. The village harvested bamboo fungus all year round, and sometimes when they arrived in two counties, they would ask if anyone was selling it.
Plant once every two years and harvest three times. If you plant fifty acres, it will be enough to eat. If you don’t open another fifty acres, you can continue planting next year.
Dictyophora is the same as honey. Eating more of it is good for your health. It nourishes qi and yin, moistens the lungs and relieves coughs, clears away heat and promotes dampness.
Um! Honey is more delicious than sugar, so we need to raise more bees.
The villagers were thinking about delicious food while working. They no longer focused on eating enough, but began to pay attention to quality and health.
