Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 174 Playing a Tree
Crispy artichokes, a big cauliflower dish with bacon, black tomato salad, another braised river fish.

There are meat and vegetables, fish and meat, and the combination is passable.

River fish is wild, but by comparison, it is not as rare as the other dishes.

Many people have heard of special vegetables, but not many people have actually eaten them.These dishes are sold online for tens of dollars per catty.

Lao Xia looked at a table of dishes, the fragrance was too appetizing.

Cheng He said with a smile: "Mr. Xia, why are you being polite? Here, there are no rules, just eat the food when it's on the table. Don't be polite to me!"

"Okay, then I'm really welcome. I'm really lucky to have a big table of dishes." Old Xia said happily.

The artichoke has a faint fragrance in the mouth.Because it is coated with a layer of egg liquid and then deep-fried, it tastes very crispy.

And after eating, there is a sweet smell in the mouth, which is very fragrant in the mouth.

This is probably a bit similar to the meaning of "blowing like orchid".

Black tomatoes taste sweet and sour, pink and tender, very juicy.The taste is indeed better than ordinary tomatoes.

Lao Xia said: "These dishes are not cheap to eat in the hotel. The out-and-out green and healthy special vegetables are all cheaper for me. By the way, why don't you start some business? These prices are not cheap."

The price of these special vegetables is very high, but for some reason, not many people grow them.And because the supply is small, the price can't always come down.

The price is high and the goods are scarce, but it still cannot prevent colorful vegetables from becoming the new favorite on the dining table of some citizens.

Because many people think that this kind of special vegetable with color is particularly good for the human body, and it is expensive and willing to eat.

Black garlic lowers three high levels, controls blood sugar, and fights cancer; black tomato nourishes yin, protects kidneys, and whitens skin; purple carrot controls blood pressure, improves liver function, and prevents diabetes...

The price of black garlic sold online varies greatly, the most expensive is more than 100 yuan per kilogram, and the cheapest is tens of yuan.

Many people said: "I heard that black garlic has many effects such as promoting sleep. 80 yuan a catty is not expensive. It is much cheaper than health care products. Buy two catties and go back and try."

In addition, the prices of colorful vegetables such as colorful glutinous corn, black tomatoes, purple potatoes, and purple carrots are much higher than ordinary vegetables, and some prices are even several times higher.

Lao Xia believes that Cheng He can do such a business.

Anyway, the soil quality here is good, and if these things can grow, then they can develop vigorously!

Cheng He smiled and said, "I can't make it delicious. I only have that little field, how much can I sell! I can eat it myself."

This is just one of them.

Secondly, he only knows that these special vegetables grow so well under the "blessing" of his ability, but he doesn't know if they can grow well if they are left alone.

Moreover, he only has a few acres of land in total, so he can grow some for himself, so why bother?
If he is short of money to spend, he can go to the mountains.

Lao Xia said with infinite regret: "It's a pity, this is actually a good project."

But it is also a fact that there are not many fields per capita in mountain villages. We can’t make everyone tighten their belts and sell the vegetables they grow to others, right?

Moreover, he also knows that Cheng He is currently planning to operate the "Million Orchid Garden" and the tourism project of Taohua Village.

There is only so much human energy, and one thing can only be done one by one, and one cannot be greedy for too much.

Otherwise, if monkeys steal corn, they will end up with nothing.

Lao Xia said: "Then wait for a while! When your tourism project is on the right track, open a hotel and make these dishes special! The price is higher, and it is guaranteed to sell well! At that time, I will come to support you every day! "

Cheng He laughed: "Since Boss Xia has planned for me, I will do as you wish."

In fact, Lao Xia really didn't talk nonsense.

After the Million Orchid Garden and the tourism project are officially on track, the number of passengers will increase, and the current farmhouse must not be satisfied.

People also need more advanced consumption.It's just right to open a hotel.

At that time, these special green vegetables grown by Cheng He will have a place to use.

He dared to assert that there would definitely not be fewer people coming for this.

Think about it, the freshest vegetables are just picked from the field, washed at home and put into the pot, how fresh!
No nutritional loss at all!

After eating a delicious meal, and talking like this, I feel very comfortable in my heart.

Cheng He made some peach wine brewed before, and drank it as an after-dinner drink.

This is higher than the alcohol content of beer, and it has a natural fragrance of peaches, and the taste is not bad.

A few days ago, Jiang Yutong came to have lunch and took some away for her.

She only stayed in Taohua Village for a few days this time, and then went back with the batch of Jiang Qian's apprentices.

Tasting the fruit wine, Lao Xia was pleasantly surprised and said with emotion: "There are so many treasures in the mountain village! What a pity! The roads are bad, and transportation is inconvenient. You can only enjoy these good things by yourself. It's a pity."

The autumn wind blows quietly, filling the room with the aroma of wine.

Lao Xia drank a glass of wine, but because he had to drive, he didn't dare to drink more, so he asked Cheng He for some to take back.

It was a good wine, and he thought his wife would love it.

Fruit wine is good for sleep, and the alcohol content is low, suitable for ladies to drink.

He didn't drive back until the afternoon alcohol was almost gone.

After Lao Xia left, Cheng He took a hoe and prepared to weed.

Along the way, he was also thinking about Lao Xia's suggestion - to open a special hotel.

After thinking for a while, he decided that it would be better to open a hotel.

In fact, he has a plot to open a hotel, and he wanted to open it before.

In the past, I wanted to open a hotel because I wanted to make money and live a happy life with someone;
Now... just open a hotel now.

No reason, just open a hotel.

Before I knew it, I had already walked into the field.Maybe because of the rain, the grass has grown so fast these days that it needs to be hoeed.

In the field where it has rained, after weeding weeds, weeds should be pulled out and taken to the field to expose to the sun and dry up, otherwise, it will live again after touching the soil.

The vitality of the grass is always very strong, and a large piece can grow up casually.

When it was almost time to pick up the children from school, Cheng He picked some vegetables by the way, some beans, a burdock, a carrot, and a cucumber.

The beans are fried with bacon, and the latter are made into three shredded salads.The little girl doesn't like to eat carrots, so she has to do something different to "trick" her into eating carrots.

Another egg and tomato soup.

There is soup, vegetables, and meat, and the nutrition should be considered balanced.

After picking the vegetables and scraping the grass to the side of the field, Cheng He went back with the hoe on his shoulder.

Put your things away and pick up the kids from school.

The little girl was very happy today, and ran out of school bouncing around.

Cheng He took her by the hand and asked, "Baby, you are so happy today, did the teacher praise you?"

Cheng Xinxin held her father in one hand, walked around and hopped right and left, and said, "Dad, today the teacher asked us to knead plasticine. I made a Mickey Mouse, and the teacher said I did it well."

"Really? Can I show Dad?"

"No, the teacher said, the Mickey Mouse I made will be placed on the exhibition stand of the kindergarten class as a souvenir." Cheng Xin said complacently.

Since this girl left the school gate, her two feet hadn't walked on the ground properly, and she was so excited that she wished she could grow wings and fly to the sky.

A child loves praise and affirmation, which makes her more enthusiastic.

For this, Cheng He felt very grateful to the kindergarten teachers.No matter whether she is really pinched so beautifully or not, such affirmation will at least give her confidence in herself.

Growth in childhood will create a child's character.And character often determines destiny.

When they got home, Cheng He was choosing vegetables in the yard, and Cheng Xinxin was riding a bicycle in the yard, and then they were chatting, singing and reciting poems by themselves, having a great time.

Cheng He broke the beans picked today into sections, and then scraped the cucumbers.

While she was busy with work, Cheng Xinxin felt that riding a bicycle by herself was boring, so she ran over to him.

The little girl climbed up on her father's back, humming in her mouth as she climbed: "The little monkey is learning to climb a tree, the tree is too high, the monkey climbs and climbs, climbs and climbs, but just can't go up..."

Then she really climbed and slid down at the same time, as if she couldn't climb up no matter what, she had a great time.

Cheng He had to play a tree to match her performance today.
