Xiaoyao Nongjiazi

The mycelium that Zhong Qingran got back was not much, and if they were all planted, only a dozen or so small baskets were filled.Due to the variety of varieties, the fruiting time is uneven, and the growth cycle is quite different. The fastest growing ones can be harvested soon after so many days, and the slowest ones may take several months to grow. OK.

In the past at this time, Jian Mingyu would always harvest autumn on the mountain, and would not stop until the harvest could not make up for a day's toil.This is not the case now, he has wisely reduced his time out and focused on this.The temptation to succeed is too great, although Zhong Qingran didn't say it, but since the testing site was placed with him, it was made clear that he was allowed to grow along with him in the future.

Jian Mingyu did the math, straw mushrooms are the cheapest and most common, and can often be seen in the market, but after all, they are wild wild growths, and many people buy them.More importantly, the growth cycle of straw mushrooms is very short, and they are not available in all seasons. The method Zhong Qingran taught him can be grown all year round, as long as a suitable growth environment is given. , without careful calculation, it can be imagined that there will be no less.

Jian Mingyu has never been out of Pingyang County, so I don't know if there are people outside who have this ability. Anyway, there should be no one around Pingyang County, so there is no need to worry that if you plant too much, you will not be able to sell it.

When Zhong Qingran arrived, Jian Mingchen was the only one in the yard. After asking, he found out that Jian Mingyu was in that thatched house surrounded by wood chips, with three walls similar to fences, but covered with a layer of thatch.

Zhong Qingran didn't think there was anything wrong with Jian Mingyu's emphasis on it.Pushing open the wooden door, a wave of heat rushed over, Zhong Qingran frowned and asked, "Mingyu, how long have you been here?"

"Ah?" Jian Mingyu was a little confused, but he still responded, "It's almost a stick of incense time."

"It's stuffy and hot in the house, it's not good for your health, don't stay here for a long time if you have nothing to do in the future."

Jian Mingyu knew that Zhong Qingran knew some medical theory, thinking that what he said must be reasonable, so he readily agreed.

After solving this matter, Zhong Qingran also focused all his attention on the mushrooms.

There are many varieties of straw mushrooms. Here are only the most common white mushrooms. There are five small baskets in total, each of which grows very densely. Although it is not comparable to the artificial planting scene of straw mushrooms he saw from the picture, it is denser than the wild ones. many.

Zhong Qingran roughly estimated that one basket can harvest more than two catties, and five baskets can harvest more than ten catties.It doesn't seem like much, it also depends on their footprint.Now it is just an experiment. When it is officially planted, a wooden frame must be built. This thing basically has no lighting requirements, and it can be planted three-dimensionally. In a room of normal height, it is no problem to build two or three floors, or even four or five floors. .In this way, the yield per mu will be extremely impressive. Even if the current technology is not good enough, it is estimated that it can easily exceed the grain output by several times.

The key point is that the growth cycle of straw mushrooms is too short. You can harvest one crop in 30 to [-] days. After a year, you can plant it three or four times. The yield per mu can exceed [-] jin. Three times, excluding the low cost, the benefits are quite considerable.One can imagine the temptation for the common people who are farming.

Jian Mingyu doesn't know this yet, if he knows, he will probably pay more attention to it.

Zhong Qingran remembered that there were only a dozen kinds of mushrooms in supermarkets, the most common ones were straw mushrooms, oyster mushrooms and shiitake mushrooms, which happened to be found here.It's just that the growth cycle of the latter two is relatively long, and it is still impossible to know whether his cultivation method is appropriate, and it is impossible to estimate whether it is cost-effective to plant them.

But with the successful example of Straw Mushroom, even if other mushrooms fail to grow, the benefits he can get are enough.

"Mingyu, you took care of this?" Zhong Qingran didn't know if it would be possible at the beginning, so he didn't expect to be on guard.Unexpectedly, every time he came here, Jian Mingyu was alone in the room, and he had never seen Jian Mingchen haunt it, which showed Jian Mingyu's meticulous thoughts.

"Well, Mingchen is too young. If he accidentally slipped his mouth, he will not be able to bear the consequences." Jian Mingyu said it calmly, and added at the end, "In the past few days, I will increase the height of the fence and encrypt it."

Zhong Qingran understood what Jian Mingyu said. Now his yard is still surrounded by fences, and the gap is a bit big. Even if the gate is closed and people stop outside, they can still see the situation inside the courtyard through the gap.If people's sight cannot be cut off, the confidentiality effect will naturally not be good.Fortunately, if others don't know anything, they won't pay special attention. When the straw mushrooms start to be sold, they won't be able to hide it.

Jian Mingyu thinks long-term. His family has just repaired the house, and he doesn't have much money in his hands. He can't afford to build the fence temporarily, so he can only make do with it. When he earns enough money, he plans to use mud and stone to build the wall. When the courtyard door is closed at all times, and there are few people in the family, who would know what he is doing in the house?

Zhong Qingran had already thought about it, the Zhong family had no place to grow mushrooms, so they would plant them on Xiaoshan Mountain, where it was relatively secluded, and it would not be easy for people to find out what they were doing.

Zhong Qingran did not avoid Jian Mingyu when making the culture medium, which made him understand that the cost of growing mushrooms is not high, especially materials such as wheat straw, which are everywhere and very cheap. Just enough on supply.

Ever since he knew this, Jian Mingyu tried not to use straw as much as possible, and used pine branches and other firewood picked up from the mountains for the stove.

After looking around, seeing that the mushrooms were growing well, Zhong Qingran was about to leave, and stepped out of the wooden door with one foot, only to realize that the good friends in other places seemed to be literate, but Jian Mingyu could not.Thinking that Jian Mingyu is not the kind of person who has extremely strong self-esteem and doesn't want others to expose his faults, Zhong Qingran didn't hesitate, and directly proposed: "Mingyu, how about I teach you how to read?"

Jian Mingyu was taken aback for a moment, he really hadn't thought about this matter, it seemed that he was too far away, and he never even thought about it.Such a good thing is something he can't ask for, and he certainly won't refuse it, even if he doesn't think about himself, he still has to accept it for Ming Chen's sake.

It is common for farmers to know one or two skills, not to mention how good their skills are.The example is there, the thatched house built with branches and planks was made by Jian Mingyu.Jian Mingyu has been working since he was a child, and he knows how to build a house by himself, weaving baskets and chipping wood.

Hearing Zhong Qingran's request, Jian Mingyu did it without even asking.

The next day, many finished products were placed in front of Zhong Qingran.This time, he didn't spend too much time on drawing. After simply mentioning the words, he used charcoal to make stick figures on the reverse side. The speed was much faster than before.

With so many pieces of wood, Jian Mingyu didn't finish the work in one go.Every time he went home, he brought a few pieces with him, and brought the calligraphy and painting over when he finished, and taught them every few days, and each time he taught them no less than the cross.The difficulty was higher than when he was teaching his younger siblings at home, but Brother Jian Mingyu didn't see that he couldn't accept it.That being the case, Zhong Qingran has been following this schedule.

Jian Mingyu's family has nothing, so Zhong Qingran naturally would not suggest that he buy the Four Treasures of the Study.Jian Mingyu might not be able to afford these things.Knowing the current situation, Zhong Qingran asked him to nail a wooden frame more than an inch high, which was covered with fine sand, and used branches to demonstrate strokes. When it was full, he could wipe it with wood chips and start over again, which was very economical and affordable.It's just a matter of knowing a word, there is no need to pay so much attention to it.

As soon as this matter started, the straw mushrooms matured one after another.

Zhong Qingran picked a small basket, and kept the other four baskets for seeds.Once on the scale, it weighed two and a half catties, which was not much different from the original visual measurement.Zhong Qingran took away a catty and a half, and left the rest for Jian Mingyu.

Jian Mingyu didn't have any objection to Bibi. Even though he contributed a place and worked hard, Zhong Qingran contributed the most. Without him, he probably wouldn't even get one.

Right now, the weather is getting colder. Except for the evergreen plants and trees in the mountains, they are beginning to shed their leaves to prepare for the winter. Edible crops are getting scarcer, and straw mushrooms are of course among them.

If it is sold in the market now, the price will be much higher than in the peak season, and if there are channels to sell it to restaurants, the price will be even higher by several percent.

Standing in the yard with a basket of straw mushrooms, Zhong Qingran looked back at the thatched cottage, and said after deliberating, "Mingyu, this type of straw mushrooms requires a higher temperature, can this house keep warm?"

Jian Mingyu has always been taking care of the straw mushrooms, and he knows it well.In Hewan Village, the outdoor temperature can reach minus [-] degrees at night in winter. If there are no corresponding measures to keep warm, it may not be possible, so he put forward his plan: "It's okay now, when it gets colder, I will try to add a Use the brazier to see if it works. If it doesn’t work, I’m going to move it into the room.”

Zhong Qingran hesitated: "This is not very good."

"It's okay, Mingchen and I live in the outer room, just make a door for the compartment, it's easy, I can make do with it myself." Jian Mingyu said it very casually, it's enough to have a room, there are only two brothers in the family, Sleeping on a bed only reduces the range of activities and does not have much impact on their daily life.

Fortunately, the scale of planting is not large, otherwise, I am afraid that it would not be able to fit in a place of more than ten square meters.

Seeing that Jian Mingyu had already made a decision, Zhong Qingran didn't persuade him anymore, and happily returned to Zhong's house with a basket of straw mushrooms.When he got home, he didn't take it directly to the kitchen, but instead went to the upper room.

The temperature is getting lower and lower day by day, most of Zhong's family members are working in their own house.It was a coincidence that there was no one in the yard on this day, but Zhong Qingran was not sure if he was seen or not.After all, from the courtyard to the upper room, whether it is the east wing room or the main room, this section can be seen through the windows.

Seeing the third grandson come in with a vegetable basket, Tong's face showed doubts: "Qing Ran, what is this?"

"Grandpa, grandma, look." Zhong Qingran lifted a corner of the old drape covering it, revealing a pile of white and fat straw mushrooms inside.

Mr. Zhong took one and carefully identified it in his hand, his heart was agitated.Tong Shi was also surprised.In this season, if you go to the mountains for a whole day, you may not be able to find a few straw mushrooms, not to mention that they grow so neatly, which is pleasing to look at.

"Qing Ran, where did you get these straw mushrooms?" Mr. Zhong was not suspicious, but he was curious, so he asked directly.

"I asked Jian Mingyu to grow it." Seeing that Mr. and Mrs. Zhong were not thinking about it, Zhong Qingran's eyes lit up a little, and there was a hint of pride in his voice.

"What? Qingran, say it again." Tong's voice suddenly rose, and she turned her head to confirm with Mr. Zhong, "Old man, there is nothing wrong with my ears, right?"

"What are you yelling about? You heard it right, that's what you thought." Mr. Zhong was a little dissatisfied, and gave Tong a blank look.

"Qingran, is it true?" Tong pretended she hadn't heard the old man's words, and asked Zhong Qingran to confirm.

"Grandma, don't worry, Mingyu is a nice person, and he won't do anything ungrateful." Zhong Qingran understood what Tong was worried about, and explained carefully, "Grandma, think about it, our family has a lot of people, so it's natural that there are too many people." Miscellaneous. This thing is different from Qinghefang. Even if the blueprints are stolen, stolen, or obtained by others, I can draw other styles. Mushrooms are not good. Once the news is leaked, it will be irreversible. Are we not making wedding garments for others?"

"Qingran, according to you, Jian Mingyu is more reliable than his own family?" Mr. Zhong disagreed with this idea, if it wasn't for his favorite grandson standing in front of him, he would have scolded him long ago.But because of this, instead, he made many excuses for his third grandson, and asked this question just to hear his thoughts.

"Grandpa, we have a lot of family members, not only the hands are mixed, but the eyes are also mixed. If you try to grow at home, where else can you grow besides my room?"

What Zhong Qingran said is also true, only his room, no one can enter without his permission, which is more in line with the requirements.But growing it in the room is obviously not what Zhong Qingran wants.In addition, there are many people in each room. Even the upper room where Mr. Zhong and his wife live, people often go in to discuss matters, which is not appropriate.If you really want to try planting, you have to build a new house.

That's all, the problem is that each room has its own careful thinking, which is different from Tong's previous fried red crayfish.The place is dead. Once the house is selected and planted, it will not be easy to move.Anyone who wants to see what's going on can always find a way. House thieves are much more difficult to guard against than outside thieves.

That's all, at least the grown-ups won't go outside and talk nonsense, even if they think they are small, they will only hug their own small family, at most it will spread to their natal family, and the speed of spreading will not be too fast.I'm afraid that children will talk nonsense outside, and it will be lively.

This point is really hard to guard against. The Zhong family doesn't have many other things, but there are quite a lot of people. Not to mention half-grown children, there are nine of them under the age of eight.Fangmin's mouth is better than Fangchuan's. It's not just for fun.Can one or two be guarded, but nine people be guarded?This is still in an unconscious situation. If anyone has the heart, hehe, the way he finally came up with to make money, it is estimated that he will soon take advantage of others.Originally, he could eat chicken, but ended up drinking soup. He didn't want to see such a thing.

The Zhong family was not so well-motivated, and with Zhong Xin and Zhong Wen around, Zhong Qingran didn't dare to take risks.

Mr. Zhong wanted to defend himself, but he couldn't find the right words.

"Besides, Grandpa, the last time Red Crawfish benefited relatives, and the prescription was cracked, didn't they still hear some complaints? A few days ago, after seeing that Qinghefang made money, relatives walked around the house more frequently. The words convey the meaning that we need to take care of them, the family members come and go, so where is there any secret?"

Now Zhong Qingran would rather trust Jian Mingyu than pass this technology on to his family.He didn't forget that the Zhong family hadn't separated yet. Once he said it, it meant that the entire Zhong family knew about it.

"As for Jian Mingyu, to put it bluntly, he is really a good person. Even if you don't consider this, he only has one younger brother, and almost no other relatives. If he sells his skills to others, what benefits will he get? If he really does this I'm afraid that there will be no place for their brothers in Hewan Village. The two young children can still live well in the village, but they don't dare to spend money when they go to other places. will do so."

After hearing Zhong Qingran's words, Mr. Zhong didn't know how to refute.In his view, the family is the most reliable, and the prosperity of the family is not the result of the generation of descendants?Unexpectedly, what the third grandson said made sense to him.But he always felt that something was wrong, and his mind was almost tied up, and he couldn't think of a reason.

Zhong Qingran had a serious face, but he was actually happy inside.This is just a little selfishness of his. No matter how you say it, from the point of view of the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, his approach is very inappropriate. He said a lot of things, but it just made Mr. Zhong unable to turn around for a while. When he figured it out , will see what is wrong.

But what's the use?The matter is a foregone conclusion, Zhong Qingran taught Jian Mingyu the method long ago, Mr. Zhong is not a person who treats human life like nothing, can he detain Jian Mingyu, or can he silence him?No matter which one, I am afraid that Mr. Zhong will not be able to do it, and he can only follow Zhong Qingran's thoughts.

However, after this incident, Mr. Zhong started to take the opportunity to educate Zhong Qingran, and he was bound to change his mind.Fortunately, he is the master of the Zhong family, and if it were replaced by someone else, would Zhong Qingran still have something to eat?

Every time, Zhong Qingran listened obediently, which made Mr. Zhong feel much better.Zhong Qingran dared to do this, didn't he rely on the love of Mr. and Mrs. Zhong, knowing that he would not be blamed?

On the same day, Tong asked someone to make a dish and serve it on the table.Straw mushrooms are not a new thing in the farm. During the growing season, as long as you put in a little effort and go around the mountain, you can always get something, but it is a bit rare right now.This variety of straw mushrooms should have matured in [-] days, but because of the low temperature and other miscellaneous factors, it took a full ten days to harvest.

With money in hand, Mrs. Tong is much more generous than before. There is meat in the straw mushrooms, which tastes delicious. It didn’t take long after serving it, and it quickly bottomed out. Even the soup at the bottom of the bowl was scraped away by the girl at home. .

The Zhong family didn't suspect it, the temperature in some places in the mountain was much higher than outside the mountain, but they were just thinking who was so lucky to find such a big nest.

Zhong Wen ate the rice in the bowl silently, the movements of his hands were no slower than those of the sisters, and he did not forget to listen carefully with his ears open.

Someone asked curiously, but Mrs. Tong blocked them all.

Zhong Wen had seen it before, Zhong Qingran walked across the yard carrying a basket.These delicious straw mushrooms were probably brought home by the third brother.But she didn't say anything, her eyes are all on Mrs. Zhang now, this hard-won little brother must be protected.

Zhong Wen believed in the dream very much, and believed in his heart that Zhang's birth must be a boy.Even though many things had gone awry, she still didn't have the slightest doubt, only because her actions changed the future.

Zhong Qingran originally planned to build a house on Xiaoshan, so that it would be convenient to grow mushrooms indoors, but after some calculations, he found that he could only build one or two houses at most, and it was still the kind of mud wall and thatched roof.The money is all spent on the house, and there is no way to do other things. He can't let him grow it by himself, right?

Zhong Qingran didn't think he was competent.He also knows a little more knowledge than Jian Mingyu and the others, so if he really puts a sword to the sword, he might be messed up in some way.Didn't he take part in raising red crayfish, planting fruit trees and herbs, or making toys and accessories?

This way was blocked, so Zhong Qingran paid more attention to Jian Mingyu's side, and the frequency of going to Jian's house gradually increased.

Going in and out of Jian's house so frequently, I don't see any strangeness in Jian Mingyu.

Zhong Qingran is not a person with a dark temperament, seeing Jian Mingyu who made him feel good about him, and if possible, he would like to develop further with him. With such an attitude, he laughed all day long, but it made those who didn't like him People are too embarrassed to belittle them face to face.

There is no comparison between Jian's family and Zhong's family, and the light house is more than one level behind, not to mention the extra food such as snacks.Fortunately, Jian Mingyu's stove is very good at cooking. The sun-dried sweet potatoes and fried beans all suit Zhong Qingran's taste.Sometimes when the interest comes, he will casually talk about the ingredients and general method of some pastries.

These are all thanks to Zhong Qingran's deceased grandma. Of course, don't expect him to memorize all the complete recipes and production processes of dim sum.What he can give is nothing more than a general outline. As for whether it can be achieved, it depends on Jian Mingyu's ability to integrate and innovate.

Since Jian Mingyu has no one to teach him, what he knows is what he learned from his sister after his parents passed away. Of course he doesn't know how to make exquisite pastries, but he has learned all the homemade desserts that will be used for the New Year.

Cakes, no matter what the patterns are, they are always the same, and the general process will not be very different.After listening to Zhong Qingran's dim sum recipe casually, Jian Mingyu started to try it out.He didn't have so much money to waste, and he chose materials that he had at home.After several attempts, he also figured out some pastries that were somewhat similar to Zhong Qingran's memory and had a unique taste.

Zhong Qingran was lucky, even Jian Mingchen was smiling all day long.When anyone asked Jian Mingyu to try it, there would be more or less defective products, and most of them entered Jian Mingchen's stomach.

Mung bean cakes, red bean cakes, and pumpkin cakes are even more delicious than what Jian Mingchen occasionally tasted when he was still in the old house.In the past, it was difficult to even eat enough. In just two years, his family has risen to the point where they can afford pastries. Now Jian Mingchen walks with wind.Even though he was young, he knew in his heart that such a big change in his family had a lot to do with brother Qingran, so he didn't need anyone to teach him, so he spontaneously and consciously got close to him.
