Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 402 Fruit trees have a good harvest!

Xiao Wangcai's recovery after surgery was quite good. After the anesthesia effect passed, he was able to eat normally. Of course, Wang Lu did not feed him too much meat or crude fiber food to avoid causing damage to his damaged throat. damage.

Fortunately, the damage didn't last too long, and it can be recovered in a few days, without affecting its combat effectiveness as a lion at all.

However, Wang Lu still took care of supplementing the little one with some nutrition and so on. Wang Lu didn't need to worry about meat and the like. As a lion king, he could get the fresh prey brought back by the lioness from hunting every day without paying anything.

Then Wang Lu could only make up for his eldest son in other ways.

Fortunately, some of the fruit trees previously planted in the pasture have matured and bear fruit, so I have been waiting for more than a year.

The climate of the pasture is very suitable for the growth of most warm and tropical fruits. In fact, local black people will not lack some basic fruits all year round, such as bananas and mangoes, which can even be easily purchased in some small villages.

There are local vendors selling these fruits every day in the small town of Baria. Although the quality is not very good, after all, they are picked from the wild by local black people, but Wang Lu has tasted them many times and the taste is amazing. Pretty good stuff.

The suitable climate and fertile soil make the quality of the local fruits absolutely above the standard, at least much better than some of the domestic fruits that are sold at extremely high prices and are hyped up to the sky.

Adhering to the principle of building a small African Jiangnan, Wang Lu also vigorously planted many fruit trees in the pasture.

It’s just that there is no large-scale planting. Firstly, the growth cycle of some fruit trees is too long. Secondly, there is no big market for local fruits, and it is completely impossible to create economic benefits for oneself. After all, black guys can easily find it in the wild. Less edible fruit.

So Wang Lu just planted some at random, but it can definitely be considered complete in terms of categories.

He has planted all the basic tropical fruits. After this season, there will be no shortage of fruits in the pasture.

Not to mention common fruits such as bananas, mangoes, pineapples, oranges, and watermelons, there are also a large number of raspberries growing in the bushes in the Woulu Mountains. As the most common berry in the world, they are not uncommon even in China.

Thanks to the fertile soil, these fruits grow like crazy almost as soon as the fruiting season comes. Once they grow, the branches are full, making people happy just to see them.

The most important thing is that the taste is quite good...

The main features of raspberries in the Woulu Mountains are that they are big, juicy and have a very touching taste. The key is that they are too easy to obtain, especially during the rainy season...

Of course, there are also some local specialty fruits, such as a fruit called date palm.

This crop is native to the desert oases of North Africa and the Middle East. The history of its introduction here dates back hundreds of years. Due to the suitable climate, it grows quite well locally. This palm species The crop has such a name because it resembles a coconut tree, but the fruits it produces are dates.

However, the growth cycle of this kind of date palm takes several years, even ten years, so Wang Lu directly transplanted several date palm trees of suitable age to the pasture, which cost a lot of money. After careful care, This date palm tree is thriving well and has successfully produced abundant fruits.

Those dates are clustered like grapes on the branches of the tree crown. You can knock down a bunch of them with a tap of a long stick, and the scene looks like it's raining.Dates rich in fructose taste quite good, and are even a good choice for stewing meat. Since he developed a new use for this thing, Lao Wei has become the most fond of dates in the entire ranch. A joyful person.

According to the chef of the special operations brigade, using these dates to stew meat can not only remove the fishy smell and increase the aroma, but also improve the taste.

Therefore, except for the fresh dates produced by the date palm trees in the pasture, all of them were dried into dried dates and became part of Lao Wei's condiment library.

Edible bananas are another type of fruit transplanted from other places in the ranch. They were originally mainly used to provide some decoration for Wang Lu's newly built villa, but Wang Lu then thought about it. It would cost money anyway, so he simply transplanted some of these fruits. Although edible varieties and purely ornamental varieties are more beautiful, they are also more expensive.

These edible plantains are both ornamental and edible, so they kill two birds with one stone.

To be honest, Wang Lu was born in a mountain village and had never tasted the taste of bananas before. Although the appearance is somewhat similar to bananas, the taste is different. It is also sweet and soft in the mouth, but the taste of bananas is There is a hint of sourness.

Many people only loved the sweet and sour taste at the end, but Xiao Wangcai didn't feel it at all. This guy secretly ate those unripe plantains, and his mouth was numb several times, and he still held his head high while talking. The neck means that he didn't eat it secretly.

In addition, there are also a large number of other fruits distributed in the Woulu Mountains.

When veterans go hunting or patrolling in the mountains, they often encounter many fruit trees. They usually remember the locations and pick them when the time comes.

Lao Wei and the others have seen several wild avocado trees. As a representative of healthy food, this thing has high economic value. Some African countries can earn tens of billions of profits every year by exporting this thing.

However, there are not many avocado trees in the pasture, and it would be too troublesome to plant them on a large scale.

After all, we can only rely on those African buffaloes to go up the mountain to cultivate land, and mechanized equipment cannot enter the mountainous terrain with complicated terrain.

But at least I can taste it, especially Zhou Rou. Since arriving at the ranch, she has followed Wang Lu to eat the ranch’s big pot rice all day long. In addition, Lao Wei, the chef, besides stewing meat, stews everything, the fragrance is so fragrant that even Zhou Rou I can't help but eat an extra bowl or two every time.

The weight has only increased by seven or eight pounds, and she is clamoring to lose weight, so many avocados picked from the mountains and forests have become Zhou Rou's meal replacement fruit.

In addition to the avocado trees, the veterans also found wild olives in the Woulu Mountains, and there were quite a lot of them.

Wang Lu specially organized people to go picking in the mountains. If those wild olives are used for cold pressing, the olive oil produced will definitely be synonymous with health.

If you dare to buy a small bottle of olive oil in a domestic supermarket for two to three hundred dollars, its economic value is absolutely incredible!
All the olive oil extracted from the olive oil is reserved for the ranch’s own use!
