Manor Romance

Chapter 195 Pumpkin Blossom

After seeing off Lu Qishan, another old acquaintance came in a hurry. Feng Yisong came to check the growth of various seedlings, and the belt forest in Dalushan is currently laying the irrigation system, and it is expected to be put into planting soon. Yes, he came this time to discuss the supply of seedlings with Yunli.

Feng Jiaqi also came with him, Yunli hadn't seen this guy for a long time, he came to the manor quite a few times, it's just that he's been out a lot lately, so he basically didn't see him much.According to the news from other employees, this guy has changed his target, probably because he thinks it is too difficult to chase Lu Ci, and he has never shown him a good face, so he shifted his pursuit target to Xu Xiangjiao.

Xu Xiangjiao looks pure and lovely, it is only natural to have suitors, and she has a gentle and considerate personality, and rarely refuses other people's requests, even if she is resistant in her heart, she will always put on a smiling face to welcome people Feng Jiaqi's expression made Feng Jiaqi feel a lot of drama, and these days he often showed her hospitality and gave her gifts.

This matter has been bothering Xu Xiangjiao recently, and the manor has a lot of business with Feng's Greenhouse Company, and the two have a lot of communication at work. Feng Jiaqi used this opportunity to pursue her, which made Xu Xiangjiao feel very helpless.

In fact, Feng Jiaqi is not too bad a person, at least he is not the kind of person who seeks his goals by any means, but his way of doing things is too self-centered, and his arrogant personality is quite difficult to get along with. It doesn't quite fit with Xu Xiangjiao's personality, but this Yunli can't control the matter, if Xu Xiangjiao really doesn't like it, then she has to learn to refuse by herself, instead of just giving in and flattering her.

Everyone knew that she had this trouble. When Gu Yixin was still there, he and Shen Hong could take turns helping Xu Xiangjiao stop the harassment, but after Gu Yixin returned to school, Shen Hong was too busy, which gave Feng Jiaqi a great advantage.As soon as he came to the manor, he left his uncle and went directly to the office building to find Xu Xiangjiao. This made Feng Yisong feel helpless, but he could only let him go.

After seeing the growth of various seedlings and writing down records, the two shifted their focus to the forest belt. Feng Yisong, like Yunli, is a research school, and likes to explore things at a deeper level and from multiple angles, so the two Talents can talk like this, but Yunli doesn't need to record everything by himself now, there are corresponding employees to share this matter, and he can look through the work records when he has time to know the growth of the crops.

"The replacement of fruit tree seedlings is in progress. After the irrigation system is set up, the [-] mu of cultivated land here can be put into use. It used to be a gully area, but it is developing towards the direction of tea gardens. After that, it is all high slope forest land. Now, I plan to use terraced fields to transform this high slope, and then there will be more room for cultivation options, and this is the direction of development of the entire Dalu Mountain." The two came to the belt-shaped forest area, and Yun Li Introduce the development plan of the entire Dalu Mountain to Feng Yisong.

"It's quite an idea. The model of forest and farming is very suitable here. In this way, the land of Xiaolu Mountain and Xiaolu Mountain has basically been developed. Next, it's time to go to Banlu Mountain. A mountain with primitive ecology, it is probably unrealistic to develop like this big and small deer mountain." Feng Yisong expressed his opinion.

Yunli nodded and said, "There is no specific development plan for Banlu Mountain. For the time being, we will first pave the access to the mountain, and then find some suitable wasteland to plant fruit trees. Now the land in Dalu Mountain and Xiaolu Mountain can basically meet the needs. I have to plan well to expand.”

"Then what do you plan to plant in this strip of forest land? You won't be planting okra again. I just took a look at the okra on the other side of the mountain. It's not bad, but whether it will produce good results in the end remains to be seen. It's too early to say, after all, these lands are not fertile enough, and supplementing with special fertilizers alone is too reluctant, so I think it's better to be conservative." Feng Yisong suggested.

When Yunli decided to plant all the okra in the mountains, Feng Yisong had warned him not to take any risks, but in the end Yunli did as he wanted. Seeing that the okra was growing well, Feng Yisong felt in his heart. There is also some comfort, and at the same time, I admire Yunli's ability.

"There are a few options, but they haven't been finalized. You know that everything here is good, but the traffic is still very blocked, so we can only choose those crops that are durable to storage and transportation. It is best that the plants have a long lifespan and can be harvested more. I'm looking forward to it, give me some ideas." Yun Li asked for advice.

"I think you can try some other varieties. When the land on the high slope is developed in the future, large-scale planting will be realized, and the production of the manor will be enriched. By then, Spotted Deer Manor will truly be called a vegetable and fruit manor." Feng Yisong replied. Dao, but did not give Yunli a clear breed suggestion.

"My idea is the same. I plan to use the land on Xiaolu Mountain to grow cherry tomatoes, and the potato land will gradually be transferred here. In addition, I am interested in planting common fruits and vegetables such as purple eggplants, tomatoes, and green beans. One piece, the soil quality problem can be supplemented with fertilizer for the time being, I believe that after several batches of transformation, the soil here will be greatly improved." Yunli said freely.

Feng Yisong nodded and praised: "Now you are a big expert in this field, just plan according to your own wishes, as for anything that needs help, just ask me, it is also good to contribute some strength to such a manor It is my honor that sooner or later this place will become an existence comparable to world-famous manors."

"Don't flatter me like that, there is still a long way to go before the goal, and agricultural products alone cannot make the manor go to a higher level, and it is bound to diversify in other directions in the future. The future is unclear and unpredictable. The development trend is so fierce, if you don't want to miss the opportunity, you can't slow down, the burden is getting heavier and heavier." Yunli said with feeling.

The manor has been developed to the present, and both planting and breeding have been a great success, but it seems to have entered a bottleneck period. His goal is not to build the Spotted Deer Manor into an agricultural empire, but an ideal manor, which requires more abundant resources. Content support is the only way to go further, and this is something that Yunli needs to consider urgently, so he will express his heart and vent his depression to a close friend like Feng Yisong.

Feng Yisong patted Yunli on the shoulder, and said: "When I went to the countryside for research, I often encountered this kind of confusion, and the more I thought about it, the more upset I became. Put it into how to make a table of delicious food, let's go, I will make you something different for lunch today."

"It makes sense, I'll help you. I'll make the meatballs you made last time. It's been so long since I've eaten them that my heart is itching. The taste of other people's ones is very different from yours. By the way, I will teach you the unique secret. Teach me." Hearing that Feng Yisong was going to cook for himself, Yunli immediately became interested, he has a few specialty dishes that are unique to this one, and you can't taste this kind of taste in big hotels.

"Come over to the pumpkin patch first, let's get some different ingredients, and after I finish my lunch, I promise you will be free from any troubles." Feng Yisong said confidently, walking in front to call Yunli to follow, Yunli He didn't know what ingredients he was going to find. In the current pumpkin field, half of the diced pumpkins hadn't grown yet, but he followed quickly.

In the one hundred acres of land in the depression, corn and pumpkins account for half, and corn is planted in the outer layer of the depression, while both kinds of pumpkins are planted in the inner layer.

The two kinds of pumpkins are space lantern pumpkin and small pumpkin. The space lantern pumpkin was planted at the recommendation of Feng Yisong. This kind of pumpkin grows fast and looks good. Many hotels and restaurants like to use it to make pumpkin dishes. It is very popular. If the growing conditions are suitable, this kind of pumpkin can grow to a weight of tens of catties or even over a hundred catties, and the economic benefits are quite good.

The other is small green-skinned pumpkins, which are planted in many places. They are small in size and generally weigh only two or three catties. The planting conditions are relatively harsh and the yield is not high, but the taste is quite good and the nutritional value Tall, highly regarded, and more economically valuable than a space lantern squash.

Of the [-] acres of land, [-] acres are used to grow small green-skinned pumpkins, while space lantern pumpkins only occupy [-] acres of land. Since they are to be supplied to Mingyi Hotel, they are planted in batches at intervals. However, the storage period of pumpkin is very long, so there is no need to divide too many batches.

The first batch of pumpkin seedlings that were planted have now grown into a clump of green vines, and some vine leaves have orange-yellow flowers on them. These flowers will not bear fruit, and the pumpkin vines bloomed in advance. Japanese flowers, wait for the vines to grow a little longer and store enough nutrients before they will bloom fruitful flowers.

The two searched around in the vine field, looking for those pumpkin flowers that hadn't stretched out to pick. Feng Yisong explained: "This pumpkin flower is also called pumpkin flower. Those who know how to eat it can turn it into a delicious food. These pumpkin flowers are delicious. The ones that don’t bear fruit can just be picked and eaten, it’s better to look for those that are in bud, those that have bloomed are not so tender, and the texture and taste are much worse.”

"I know that pumpkin flowers can be eaten, but I just don't know how to do it. I'll teach you how to do it today." Yun Li moved nimbly, and quickly picked many thumb-sized pumpkin flowers that hadn't bloomed yet, and picked them up with his hand. The small bamboo basket that came was packed.

"Pumpkin flowers can be eaten, but have you heard that pumpkin vines can be eaten?" Feng Yisong also picked some and put them into a small bamboo basket. Seeing that the quantity was about the same, he discussed with Yunli about the other aspects of the pumpkin plant. A part of the ingredients.

"Pumpkin vines can also be eaten? I haven't heard of this, which part should I eat?" Yun Li asked curiously.

"The soft rattan part, although its epidermis is densely fibrous, rough and has bristles, it can be torn off by scalding boiling water, leaving the delicate stems inside to eat. It is very fresh and smooth, and there are many ways to do it. You have to taste it later." Feng Yisong explained.
