Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm
Chapter 93 Acorn Tofu
Chapter 93 Acorn Tofu
Wang Lu lost interest when he saw it was a stork, but Parker on the side became more energetic.
"Boss, it looks like we found the food storage place for this unlucky guy today. If you don't mind, maybe we can get extra food."
Wang Ludeng was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Parker, you won't let even a woodpecker go, right? They are some nice guys, aren't they?"
Obviously, Parker understood that his boss had misunderstood him.
"Boss, don't worry, I don't mean to kill that woodpecker. Besides, these guys are not really good birds!"
The words that came out of Parker's mouth later overturned the knowledge that Wang Lu had accepted since he was a child.
"Some woodpeckers naturally feed on the larvae in tree trunks, but sometimes in order to prey on the larvae hiding in tree trunks, they will continue to dig deep into the trees, causing considerable damage to the trees. Some woodpeckers will even deliberately They peck open the bark of trees and let the sap flow down to attract insects for them to eat. Some woodpeckers work all day on trees to build nests. However, most of these species of woodpeckers only build nests on dead wood, so they are not considered nests. Harmful to birds.”
Parker, a wilderness survival expert, apparently also studies woodpeckers.
"But that damn guy just now, with its red head and black body, is no different from an ordinary woodpecker. But boss, you must have noticed its gray belly, which means it is an oak woodpecker. Of course, this is just a nickname. , these guys work on the trunk not to catch pests for the pine tree, but to create a place for it to store food. Sometimes they even drill holes in some wooden houses to store food. I once saw A whole house was destroyed because of a woodpecker."
Hearing this, Wang Lu took advantage of the situation and continued to look up. Sure enough, he saw dense holes on the top of the tall pine tree, as if there was something inside.
However, Wang Lu has no interest in whether woodpeckers are harmful or beneficial to birds.
"All in all, their behavior is just for survival, and there is nothing good or bad about it."
After Wang Lu concluded, Parker immediately began to flatter him:
"Oh God, what a wise conclusion!"
"Never mind it, Parker, this is my territory, and these pine trees are my property, and these damn woodpeckers are digging up my walls, and I guess I don't mind collecting some taxes from them!"
Wang Lu also looked a little excited. He was just talking nonsense because he wanted to steal the woodpecker's nest and commit some theft.
Parker was even more direct. He climbed up the tree and reached the densely packed holes in a few clicks. One by one, he took out the nuts that the woodpeckers had hidden in the pine trunks.
When I finally came down from the tree, I found a bag full of oval-shaped brown fruits.
"These are all acorns, boss, it looks like there are oak trees in your pasture!"
Parker said casually, while Wang Lu looked at these acorns with some emotion.
Oak itself is a good wood, and the fruits it produces are acorns, which are very popular with woodpeckers. Otherwise, these woodpeckers would not dig holes everywhere to store them.
Another reason why Wang Lu was interested was that if there were oak trees in the Woulu Mountains, he could consider cutting down some of them to make oak barrels to hold the red wine he brewed.
The batch of red wine I brewed before is calculated based on the time. The fermentation time is enough. You can choose to drink it directly or store it in the cellar.
For cellaring, obviously traditional oak barrels would be a good choice.If there is oak in your pasture, you can choose to make it yourself without spending extra money to purchase it!
But now that I have a pile of firewood, I don’t have time to do this.
And if there wasn't Parker, a field expert, it wouldn't be difficult to find the oak forest.
Parker even said directly:
"Don't worry, boss, that stupid bird just now will come to this pine forest again after a while, and it won't be able to part with the food it has stored!"
So the two of them tied up the collected firewood with ropes and took them down the mountain, along with the pockets of acorns.
After returning to the foot of the mountain, I saw that Old Wei and a group of veterans had all completed today's drug sowing operations and were conducting routine inspections on the T50 agricultural drones.
"Master, don't tell me that this thing is really powerful. It doesn't require any effort on our part. Just leave a few people to watch it. Don't mention how easy it is!"
The veterans all greeted Wang Lu with smiles.
When Lao Wei, the chef of the ranch, saw the acorns in Wang Lu's hand, he also looked surprised.
"Do we still have this thing in our ranch?"
"Anything you encounter on the mountain can be used as food!"
Wang Lu explained casually, and then cracked an acorn open, intending to taste it, but the result was not satisfactory.
When you eat it, there is a bitter and astringent taste in your mouth. All in all, the taste is definitely not good.
At first, Wang Lu thought this thing was the same as the nuts in the mountains and the taste would not be bad, so he simply spit it out.
"How can this thing be so delicious? It's choking and astringent! Leave it to me. I'll add another dish to the brothers today!"
Old Wei took the acorns and began to deal with them.
Wang Lu looked on curiously, could this thing be processed into dishes?
I saw Old Wei peeling off the shells of all the mature acorns, and then soaking them in water. Then he stood up and said to Wang Lu:
"Boss, this thing can be ground into powder and can be made into tofu. It just so happened that a few guys in the team ate some of the sausage fruit. They have had diarrhea for the past two days. This thing can also cure diarrhea, which is right!"
As soon as Old Wei said these words, several of the veterans immediately blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm just greedy and tasted a few more bites of that sausage fruit. I've been feeling a little sick in my stomach for the past two days, but it doesn't affect my work at all. Don't be so careless!"
Wang Lu remembered the sausage tree he saw during his inspection that day and Parker's reminder, and then he smiled knowingly.
However, when Old Wei said that this stuff could be ground into powder and made into tofu, Wang Lu immediately realized, isn't this the stuff used in his hometown's Kuci Tofu!
Then Wang Lu checked on the Internet, and sure enough, what was called a locust tree in his hometown was actually a big-leaved oak tree. The locust trees on it fell a lot in the mountains every year. Wang Lu often picked them up when he was a child. It turned out that It is from the same origin as this acorn.
