The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

Chapter 335 Hozen Wood

Not giving their wife any face at all, the two brothers tried their best and told their uncle and his family to get out the next day.

The eldest sister-in-law of the Fan family originally planned to cause a scene in front of Uncle Zhongqin's house.

Ma told her that if she didn't lose even the last bit of face, their government wouldn't mind and would send people to Taohua Town to promote their family's virtues.

After a trip to the capital, the family of four changed their clothes from head to toe, and their children also received greeting gifts from their aunts.

If this relationship was made clear in her hometown, who would think highly of her family?
The couple had no brotherhood and were greedy for money. Their minds were still online and they didn't dare to make any more troubles. They returned to their hometown in despair.

Regarding the Yuan Mansion, Hei Wa clicked his tongue after hearing Cuihua's gossip:
"The ancients loved incest marriages. We should really pull out those idiots who are born to incest and make everyone sober up."

"After all, there are still a minority of fools, and the majority are normal. These cases cannot change the status quo. We are talking about getting closer to each other, and it is not just for the sake of interests to bind them more tightly."

"Daughter-in-law, you are always so sharp and sober!"

The couple stopped mentioning the topic, and Hei Wa began to tell Cuihua about what they had seen on Falk Island.

While they were repairing supplies, Yuan Wenjie and the others were led by Putuo's translator, and the shopping was quite exciting.

On the first day they landed on Ma Island, they saw many trees.

It is said to have grown on the island for thousands of years and is called the hozen tree by local indigenous people.

Puma took them to watch, and they saw some of the strongest hozen trees on the island.

It only grows about twenty meters tall, but the tree is so fat that it takes twenty or thirty people to surround it.

"Wow, this may be the biggest tree we have ever seen in our lives!" The teenagers exclaimed and marveled at the biggest tree.

"Dear gentlemen, although these hozen trees are so strong, the trunks are very loose and mostly hollow.

When the island experiences low rainfall and water shortage, you only need to drill a hole in the tree to receive clean water from the trunk.

Just the water stored in this tree can last our entire clan enough to drink for more than ten days! "

"What a tree, what a tree!" The friends applauded in unison. When there is a shortage of water, a tree like this is definitely a life-saving tree.

"Huh? Why do the flowers of this Hozen tree smell like rotting meat?" It's not because they have a good sense of smell, but the smell is really strong.

Everyone looked up and saw that the flowers were huge, white and extremely dazzling, and there were a large number of hanging stamens, which looked good but smelled bad.

Putuo said: "We have lived here for a long time, and we are used to the smell, but we don't find it smelly. In a year, except for the driest season, it can bloom three times and bear fruit three times."

"There are so many fruits, can we eat them?" Looking at the fruits on the tree eagerly, everyone began to fantasize about its taste.

"It's edible. Not only the pulp is edible, but the fresher leaves can be eaten as vegetables or dried and ground for seasoning."

Putuo was a man of action. He also asked a few indigenous children to climb a slightly shorter hozen tree to pick fruits for the nobles.

The fruit that was thrown off the tree is oblong, gray-white, and as big as an ostrich egg.

When broken open, the pulp is white and contains black seeds.

"You can eat it raw or roasted. We Javanese people like to grind the pulp into powder and add some honey to drink it as juice." Putao said as he took the lead in eating.

"This fruit doesn't have much water, and it's a bit sour. It tastes just like that." Yuan Wenwu took a few bites and expressed that he didn't like the taste.

"Nobles, please don't think it tastes ordinary. Monkeys love to eat it. When food is not enough, people can also eat it. The pulp of the fruit can be used to reduce fever and treat malaria. It can be said that its whole body is full of treasures!"

After the Shangguan imperial physician heard about this tree, he became obsessed with collecting their sap, hoping to extract the essence.

In addition to these strange trees on the island, there are: bottle grass that secretes fragrance and attracts insects;

the compass tree with rows of fine needles that always point south;

Grasses that grow as tall as trees and bear seeds that look like blue flames, etc.

Fruit can be said to be a collection of fruits from all over the world.

In addition to the common bananas and pineapples, there are also "black plums" that taste like dates.

There are "oyster melons" that look like oysters, "jujubes" that are as big as your little finger, "sea coconuts" that are shaped like human butts, etc.

In terms of courage to try new things, who can compare with these teenagers?

As long as it is non-toxic, I dare to put it in my mouth.

The animals in the jungle of Falklands are also eye-opening.

long-necked weevils with necks twice as long as their bodies;

A chameleon that is as small as a fingernail but can change into seven colors;

Dark blue birds all over;

A snake with a long and pointed nose
The most common ones are groups: a kind of monkey with big round eyes, like a fox and a dog.

There are forty or fifty species of lemurs alone.

Qin Ke encouraged the twins: "Fifth brother and sixth brother, let's take some back. Your Highness has never seen these rare things. It's better to enjoy them alone than to enjoy them all!"

"Hey! Fourth brother, we thought of going together. Anyway, we have brought so many wild animals back, so there is no shortage of these!"

Yuan Wenwu was fascinated by lemurs, with their big round eyes. If they weren't afraid of people, he would have liked to have a look at them.

Yuan Wenjie also nodded and whispered in a low voice:

"Look, there are many types of wild orchids here! Fourth brother, if you can take the beauty and fragrance of these wild orchids back home, they won't be cheaper than gems!"

The literati and poets of the Great Xia Dynasty were most fond of arty, orchids, and gentlemen among flowers. Who doesn’t like them?
Qin Ke's eyes lit up: "Let's go, let's discuss it with uncle, and we won't go to those ship merchants to snatch the gems. Let's just dig some grass and go back, hehe!"

Even if something good happens, don't forget Lu Shaoting and the others who are good friends with them.

Master Yan said that he could help check it and he was good at choosing orchids.

Of course, Hei Wa would not delay his sons' earning a little money. He suggested that the teenagers should choose more types of orchids, and it would be best to pack them away with the soil and grass.

At worst, he could just water the space a few more times.

With the help of Master Yan, Zhao Tingting and others ran into the mountains for three days and dug out more than a hundred high-quality orchids.

Thousands of old roots and new seedlings were grown, and they were kept like treasures in earthenware pots, with holes drilled under the pots for ventilation.

The small animals were picked and picked by Uncle Zhongqin. In the end, he only brought eight pairs of lemurs and eight chameleons of different types. The rest were rejected. Birds and snakes are grateful!
No matter how short the time was, they stayed on Falk Island for half a month.

Faisal also needs to make clear arrangements for the workers in his manor to haul away this year's harvest of rice.

Putuo was hired by Feisal with a high salary because he understood Da Shi dialect and Da Xia Mandarin, and became the translator for this trip.
