Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 11 Going to the Market
Sure enough, everything was as he expected. When Liu Junhao poured the water from the water tank for raising rice field eels into the tomato field, in less than four hours, more than a dozen half-green tomatoes were fully ripe and hung on the branches. The trees look like small lanterns, and the tomato plants have become obviously thicker, with small beige flowers blooming all over the branches.

Are these tomatoes edible?He picked one with some anxiety, and didn't wash it with water. He directly grabbed a leaf and wiped the frost off the skin, and took a bite of the light red flesh.

"Yeah..." A coolness immediately penetrated into the throat. The tomatoes are not sour and bitter, but have a sweet taste. The taste is very good. The originally dry throat seems to be oiled, and it becomes very smooth.

He has been very angry these days, and at noon he drank half a bottle of wine with Teacher Guo, his throat was on fire, and when a tomato went into his stomach, that feeling disappeared completely, and his body became more comfortable.

I have learned about the ecosystem in biology, it is a bit like the mulberry fish pond in the south, the water only has a direct effect on the fish, so when he directly watered the vegetable field with the water soaked in Shisuo, the tomatoes did not respond, but After being absorbed by the fish, it changes. The excrement of the fish is absorbed by the plants, so the plants also change. This is an ecosystem cycle.

Looking at the rapidly growing fish, his eyes lit up. He has this peculiar stone lock. If he raises fish, he will definitely be able to make a fortune.

But then the light in his eyes dimmed again. The reason is very simple. There is no market. Qingshan Town has a lot of mountains, water and fish. In such a hot weather, coupled with the lack of oxygen, the fresh fish might turn into stinky salted fish when transported to the county town. Who would buy it?If the fish is transported to the county town by water truck, although the fish will not die, there will not be enough fish in the water truck, which is not enough for the freight.

After thinking about it, this stone lock has no way to become a golden doll for himself to get rich. This made Liu Junhao vent his enthusiasm just now, and he no longer has the interest to play with it. He lazily threw half a long-haired steamed bun to the fire head , and then lay in a daze on the bed.

The next morning, he got up early, rolled out his bicycle, packed all the bottles and jars containing thirteen incense, and then rode the bicycle to the market. Today is every market.

Although the thirteen incense that was slandered by Lao Liangtou was ground from sawdust, dregs, grass roots and tree bark, many people came to buy it. This is a secret recipe passed down by Lao Liutou before his death. It can be used in rural cooking, weddings and weddings. Well, when a guest comes, you can't randomly give them radishes and cabbage and let them stew in a pot.And although the thirteen incense produced outside is well packaged, few people buy it in Qingshan Town, because the Liu family's thirteen incense is an ancestral handicraft, and I don't know what is added to the secret recipe. Delicious, especially when cooking meat, put a spoonful of it, the rich meat aroma can even waft half a village, and it tastes fresh and delicious, I don't know how many times stronger than the beautifully packaged thirteen incense.

Therefore, in Qingshan Town, the Liu family’s thirteen incense can be said to be a scorpion shit—the only one. Although Liu Junhao is very lazy and doesn’t wander around the villages with bottles and cans like old man Liu did, but with this recipe, When he went to town every few days, he could earn tens of dollars, and he lived a happy life.

Everyone knows the basic ingredients of Thirteen Fragrances. Pepper, aniseed, cinnamon, etc. are matched in certain proportions, and then combined together, it is "Thirteen Fragrances".

Many people have used this recipe before, but they can't adjust the taste of Liu's thirteen incense. Others don't know why, but Liu Junhao knows that this recipe was made when old Liu was dying. I just said it to myself, the Liu Family Thirteen incense has added a little purple mugwort.

Even though this kind of purple mugwort is quite common in Qingshan Town, it grows in the fields, in front of and behind houses, but usually people don't pay attention to it at all, because even cattle and sheep don't eat this kind of thing.

Even if they noticed, no one would dare to try it easily. Anyone who knows a little about Shisanxiang knows that these ingredients are not added casually, and must be in moderation, because cinnamon, fennel, ginger, pepper and other ingredients, although they are natural seasonings However, it is also a traditional Chinese medicine, which has certain side effects. If it is used improperly, it will cause toxicity and mutagenicity, so the ingredients can only be just right. "More than half is dangerous, less is not good" This is what old man Liu used to say when he was alive.

After the death of old Liu Tou, many people tried to get this prescription out of Liu Junhao's mouth. They thought Liu Junhao was young and easy to fool, so they kept buying him a drink, trying to get drunk and figure out the prescription. Unexpectedly, although Liu Junhao is young, his mouth is very tight. As long as someone invites him to eat, he will eat it.It is so popular that he bites straight, but there is nothing he can do.

This time, Liu Junhao's stall was not placed in front of the grain depot, and there wasn't even a tree there. Setting up a stall there on such a day was simply suffering.He placed the stall under a big tree, and this is one of Liu Junhao's fixed stalls. Anyone who wants to buy thirteen incense will come here to look for him if they can't see him at the gate of the grain depot.

Not far from the opposite side is a small game room with three outdated game consoles. Due to the lack of entertainment activities in the town, these three game consoles are extremely popular. Every time they come to every village, the second-rate gangsters from every village will crowd the place. Yes, fights are common.

But no one dared to provoke Liu Junhao, and everyone knew that he was notoriously untouchable.Even though he went to high school, he looks like a cultural person, but he is very heavy in fights. Once a few gangsters who lived in the street lost all their money in the game hall and saw how popular he was selling thirteen incense sticks. The idea hit his head, blocking his car with a knife in a deserted place on the way.

At that time, Liu Junhao did not change his face and heartbeat. He politely tied the car to the side of the road, then pulled out the iron rod that fixed the cardboard box from the back seat, and swung it up without saying a word. On the side of the road, weeping for father and mother, repeatedly begging for mercy.

Since then, when I saw Liu Junhao, I would respectfully call him Brother Liu, but Liu Junhao didn't like this group of people very much. Every time, he was polite and alienated, and they never invited him to drink.

The business in the morning was good. From time to time, people came to buy thirteen incense, and most of them were regular customers. It was almost noon. At this time, a 60-[-]-year-old old man walked along the road.

The old man held a bottle of kerosene in his hand, and walked slowly along the road. Although every village is connected to electricity, some farmers still use kerosene to light their lamps. This old man is obviously one of them.
