Shanhai Developer

Chapter 8 Reclaiming Wasteland and Farming

After the three of Huang Guohuai returned home, they began to prepare dinner.

Huang Guohuai invited a total of two friends. These two are younger than him, but both have high blood pressure and take medicine all year round.

By 6:00 p.m.

Two old friends came together.

Without further ado, Huang Guohuai first pulled them to the instrument, "Come on, let's measure blood pressure."

The old man with long eyebrows skillfully put his arm into the measuring instrument, and he still laughed cheerfully: "Old man Huang, what are you planning to do?"

Changmei is a calligrapher, known as "Living Wang Xizhi", because he is also surnamed Wang, Huang Guohuai often jokingly calls him "Living Wang".

The bald old man next to him snorted, "I think he's getting older and younger, he's confused, and he knows how to mess around all day long."

Huang Guohuai took down the blood pressure data seriously, "Bald Zhang, it's your turn. Hurry up, don't dawdle."

While bald Zhang was thinking, he put his arm into the measuring instrument.

Huang Guohuai said: "You know that my blood pressure used to be high and couldn't be lowered?"

The two old men: "I know, I know, it's not news."

Huang Guohuai smiled mysteriously, "I found a miracle drug that may have the effect of lowering blood pressure. You can try both later."

When King Zai Shi heard this, he quickly lowered his voice, "Brother, are you stunned? Can you take the medicine casually?"

The bald Zhang also asked, "Don't you care about Siqin?"

Siqin is also Huang Guohuai's daughter-in-law. She has a strong personality. Both Bald Zhang and the living king know that she basically has the final say on major and minor matters in this family.

Huang Guohuai glanced at the kitchen subconsciously, with a smug expression, "Both dolls know about this, and strictly speaking, it's not medicine."

The living king felt curious, "Isn't it medicine? What is that? Let's hear it."

Huang Guohuai slowly recorded the second set of blood pressure data and looked at it with vacant eyes.Obviously, even after taking the medicine, the blood pressure of the two friends was not well controlled, which belonged to mild hypertension.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the bald old man snorted, "He's playing tricks on us, don't pay attention to him."

Huang Guohuai was not happy anymore, put away the data, "Who tricked you, wait."

He got up and went to the kitchen, and after a while, he came out with something.

The two old men looked at it.

Bamboo shoots? ? ?

"The antihypertensive medicine you mentioned is this thing?"

"Correct!"

Zai Shiwang and Bald Zhang suddenly looked terrified: Old man Huang is probably not dementia!

The dinner was ready, and Huang Jianwei and his wife brought out the dishes.

Zai Shiwang and Bald Zhang looked over, good guys, cold bamboo shoots, fried pork slices with bamboo shoots, roasted bamboo shoots with preserved vegetables, roast beef with bamboo shoots, and crucian carp soup with bamboo shoots.

It's all bamboo shoots.

Even the two children are cooperating with the old man Huang, how serious is this dementia?

dinner's ready.

Bamboo shoots are really fragrant, even more delicious than pork, beef, and fish.

But they don't know the taste of food -- although they don't know the taste of food, they still eat bamboo shoots.

It’s only been a few days since I’ve seen you, how come you have dementia?In a few years, they will become like this.

The more the two old men thought about it, the more uncomfortable they became.

After the meal, Huang Guohuai called them to measure blood pressure again.

Huang Jianwei and his wife also stood by.

When Shi Wang thought it was ridiculous, but had to cooperate and stretched his arm into the detector, he was still thinking, if a meal can lower blood pressure, what do we need doctors and antihypertensive drugs for?

After the blood pressure test was over, he withdrew his arm and heard Huang Guosian say: "Systolic blood pressure is 135, diastolic blood pressure is 85."

The living king thought numbly: Oh, 135,85, [-], it’s really immediate. After taking more than ten years of medicine, it didn’t come down. After a full feast of bamboo shoots, it returned to Zhengzheng...

what?

135,85? ? ?

He turned his head to look at the measuring instrument, which had these two numbers clearly written on it.

Having suffered from high blood pressure for more than ten years, he naturally knows the range of normal blood pressure, and these two figures are both within the normal high value!It is much lower than usual after taking the medicine!

He looked at the two juniors reflexively. Could it be that they broke the equipment to make old man Huang happy?

As a result, Huang Jianwei and his wife were also extremely happy at this time, their expressions were genuine.

The living king was dumbfounded.

Bald Zhang was even more confused.

The only one sober among the three old men was Huang Guohuai, who put the bald Zhang's arm into the detector with a smile.

Five pairs of eyes stared at the display screen above the detector. The systolic blood pressure was 130 and the diastolic blood pressure was 82. The data was even better than that of Zai Shiwang!

Huang Jianwei and his wife were pleasantly surprised: "Dad, the bamboo shoots from Shanhai are really effective!"

Huang Guohuai laughed and said, "I don't need to take medicine anymore!"

effective?

Do not take medicine?

The living king didn't react, and asked dryly: "This, this, is there any problem with the equipment?"

The bald Zhang also asked, "You don't have Alzheimer's?"

Huang Guohuai paused for a moment, and the two friends thought he was suffering from dementia for a long time!He patted them on the shoulder vigorously, "I'm very clear-headed. Siqin, tell them quickly."

Liang Siqin briefly talked about how Huang Guohuai accidentally bought bamboo shoots, and how he discovered that bamboo shoots have the effect of lowering blood pressure, and finally said: "To tell you the truth, at first, we were dubious, but we did it for you two just now. Only by testing can we be sure.”

Jae Shiwang and the bald head were full of disbelief.

In order to control blood pressure, they took medicine for ten years.The medicine is unpalatable and expensive, but the key point is that not only will it cause coughing, dizziness, and ankle edema, but the effect is still open to question.

But now, there is actually a magical bamboo shoot that can lower blood pressure? !

What are bamboo shoots?

Ingredients!

Natural and delicious ingredients!

With bamboo shoots, where do they need to take antihypertensive drugs twice a day? !

Just eat bamboo shoots!

The two old men were so excited that they hurriedly grabbed Huang Guohuai, "Where did you buy the bamboo shoots?!"

Xia Yunxiao has been busy until late at night before planting the three crops. Among them, rice covers an area of ​​10 mu, 300 orange saplings cover an area of ​​10 mu, and green onions are less than half an mu.

Put away the farm implements.

Greeted Bai Ze as usual, "Master, go up and rest."

He originally thought that Bai Ze would still ignore him as before, but he didn't expect that this time, the little guy would slowly follow up the stairs. Seeing his surprised eyes, he asked grandma, "Don't you want to rest?"

"Yes, it is."

Xia Yunxiao quickly stepped aside, leaving enough room for the little fat cat to pass.

The little chubby cat jumped up level by level.

Xia Yunxiao followed behind and looked at it silently.

So, the little guy is willing to go to the room to sleep, is it because he recognizes his performance?

Not bad.

Secretly pursing his lips, Xia Yunxiao said: "The area of ​​the manor is getting wider and wider, and the number of customers will definitely increase in the future. I think it's time to dig a well."

"Dig a well?"

Xia Yunxiao explained, "Ganshui is completely different from the water we, uh, ordinary people drink, so we have to find a reasonable source for it."

Bai Ze said: "There is a stream in the manor, so there is no need to dig a well."

Xia Yunxiao was startled, "There is a stream in the manor?"

Well, he admitted that the Shanhai Manor is 5000 mu, so far his scope of activities is limited to dozens of mu of land around the office building, and he doesn't know the overall situation at all.

Bai Ze took small steps seriously, and walked towards the room, "You haven't seen it, it's normal if you don't know. There is a mountain at the end of the manor, and the stream flows down from the mountain, and a lake is formed."

"Then why isn't it marked on the map of Shanhai Manor?"

The little chubby cat tilted its head, indicating that it didn't know either.

Xia Yunxiao said silently: It seems that he has to find time to take a tour of the whole manor.

After washing up, Xia Yunxiao walked out of the bathroom.

The little chubby cat has already found a good place, and curled up into a cat curl on the bay window. When he heard him coming out, he only moved his tail and didn't even open his eyes.

Xia Yunxiao smiled slightly, and went to bed lightly.

Before going to bed, I didn’t forget to order three types of logistics boxes, large, medium and small, and shock-absorbing film online. In this way, the money was spent again.

They really desperately need to make money.

Day two.

Xia Yunxiao got up before dawn.

There is so much to do today.

1. Dig 200 catties of bamboo shoots, pick 50 catties of watermelons, and send them to Jiang Ziwen.

2. Send watermelon to Mr. Huang Guohuai.

3. Look at the three new plants that were planted last night.

4. Watering

The first task is the most urgent, after all, the buyer's request is to be delivered at 7:00 in the morning.

Xia Yunxiao planed the bamboo shoots at the fastest speed in his life. After ten minutes of hard work, he was so tired that he was sweating profusely, and only harvested twenty or thirty catties.

Bai Ze couldn't stand it anymore, jumped into the bamboo forest, pouted his buttocks and started to fuck, his two front paws were flying around, and the afterimage was almost gone, the dirt was flying behind his body rustlingly, the bamboo shoots were unearthed, and with a stroke of his little paws, the bamboo shoots The son "cracked" and disconnected.

In a second, a bamboo shoot was unearthed.

In two seconds, two bamboo shoots were unearthed.

The speed is incredible!

Xia Yunxiao hurriedly followed, picked up the bamboo shoots and put them in the logistics box, "Master, you are really amazing!"

Bai Ze didn't speak, and the speed of digging the soil became faster.

With Bai Ze's help, the efficiency of digging bamboo shoots has increased by no less than ten times.

In about half an hour, all 200 kilograms of bamboo shoots were put into the logistics box and packed.

Xia Yunxiao started picking watermelons again.

A grown watermelon weighs [-] jins individually and has sufficient water content. It can be split open with a fingernail.Worried about damaging the watermelons due to collisions during transportation, he specially wrapped each watermelon with a shock-absorbing film.

50 catties of watermelon are ready.

Xia Yunxiao moved the boxes to the yard and confirmed the delivery on Taobao. After a while, the medium-sized cargo spaceship drove over and stopped in the yard. The mechanical arm put all the boxes into the cargo hold, and then flew away.

After finishing the task, Xia Yunxiao sent another watermelon to Huang Guohuai alone.

By this time, it was broad daylight.

Xia Yunxiao breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at the great hero, "Is it dirty from the digging just now, may I wipe it off for you?"

Bai Ze was also annoyed that his paws were dirty, when he heard Xia Yunxiao say this, he didn't refuse, said "Thank you" awkwardly, and then emphasized, "When I recover, these dirty things won't stick to my body. "

"God is the most powerful."

Xia Yunxiao went to the kitchen to fetch a basin of hot water.Bai Ze's two front paws were dirty, but the rest of the place was quite clean.He wet the towel, wrung it dry, raised Bai Ze's front paw and wiped it carefully.

By the time Bai Ze finished cleaning up, it was already 8:00 in the morning.

Xia Yunxiao was so hungry and greedy, he simply carried a watermelon to the kitchen.

He first prepared a bowl of watermelon juice for the little chubby cat, and then he ate the rest of the water for a while, and finally went to the field with his chubby belly.

The land of Shanhai Manor must be managed by division.

He plans to use the central axis of the office building as the boundary, plant perennials such as fruit trees on the left side, and annual crops such as grain and vegetables on the right side, and properly reserve land for traffic roads and landscaping according to the area occupied by the crops, etc. When the company has money, it will be filled slowly.

The orange tree is on the right and left of the watermelon field, and it grows very well. Because he deliberately controlled the exchange ratio of sweet water and tap water, the growth rate of the orange tree slowed down a lot.However, compared to the seedlings that were just over one meter long last night, they are still much more luxuriant.

After seeing the orange trees, go to the shallots and rice on the right side of the melon field.

The roots of the shallots are straight, and the clusters are trembling in the wind, which is very cute.

The rows of rice are distinct, and the ends of the leaves are slightly drooping, light and delicate.

The rice is far from ripe, but the shallots are ready to eat.He took pictures of shallots and hung them up in the online shop, and at the same time sent pictures to Jiang Ziwen, asking him if he wanted to buy them.

Taste of Heaven Restaurant.

The chef, lobby manager and waiters were notified by the chef early in the morning, saying that two new dishes had been developed.The chef is highly skilled and full of creativity, so they are looking forward to new dishes.

It was still early, the restaurant was not yet open, and all the staff were waiting outside the transparent kitchen.

They saw the chef carefully peeling a bamboo shoot.

Well, today's new dish is mainly bamboo shoots.

Immediately, I saw the chef cut the bamboo shoots into thin strips as long as the little finger, put them in boiling water for 2 minutes, and then picked them up.

Well, fresh bamboo shoots are soaked in water to remove the bitterness.

Then I saw the chef wash the bamboo shoot shells, put them on a dark green plate, and put the bamboo shoots in the shells one by one, no more, no less, a total of ten, and sprinkled some salt.

then……

And then no more!

The lobby manager touched his little heart and asked tremblingly, "Chef, don't you want to add something?"

Jiang Ziwen clapped his hands in a happy mood, "No, just this one. This plate, named Magnolia Magnolia, is priced at 129. Today is the first day of the new product launch, and the price is 69 for early adopters."

Cook and waiter: 233333

The lobby manager could barely breathe.

Even worse is yet to come.

I saw Jiang Ziwen moving out another big watermelon from under the chopping board.

In Tianzhiwei Restaurant, watermelon is usually made into a fruit plate and given to customers for free.

Today's watermelon doesn't look quite the same as usual, there are still drops of water on the melon pedicle.When the blade touches the peel, the watermelon splits in half automatically, exposing the bright red and plump flesh. The bright red juice flows along the edge to the chopping board. Just looking at it through the glass, it must be sweet and crisp. .

The onlookers swallowed unconsciously, so the chef wants to make watermelon dessert?

The watermelon dessert is good. The weather is so hot during this period that it affects the appetite of the guests. The watermelon dessert that quenches thirst must be very popular.

however……

Jiang Ziwen took the melon rind, built it into a square box the size of a fist, cut the flesh into small cubes, put it in, put a piece of melon rind on it as a cover, and finally, put four delicate small forks beside it.

The lobby manager had a vague premonition.

In the next second, I heard Jiang Ziwen say briskly: "This bowl, named Qingmen Lvyufang, is priced at 99, and the price is 49 for early adopters."

This is so...

Chefs and waiters couldn't bear to look directly.

The lobby manager is desperate.

The chef has always been picky about the dishes, and he is particular about the color, aroma, taste, shape, and utensils. What happened today?

Well, in all fairness, the color of the bright yellow bamboo shoots in the bamboo shoot shells and the dark green porcelain plate is really pretty; the watermelon pulp is packed in a small house made of peel, and the name of the dish is really elegant.

But the problem is that no matter how pretty and elegant they are, they can’t change the fact that they are boiled bamboo shoots and watermelon compote!

Recently, I have been striving for a Michelin star. With such a small weight and such rough craftsmanship, who would spend money on it? !

The chef must have had a fight with the boss, right?

Or broke up?

So you plan to use these two dishes to smash the restaurant's signboard? ? ?

Jiang Ziwen didn't know what they were thinking, so he just pushed the two porcelain plates out of the window and said calmly, "Taste first."

Dozens of staff looked at each other, but none of them moved.

In the end, it was the lobby manager who took a step forward, bravely picked up the chopsticks and tried the dishes one by one under the awe-inspiring eyes of the people around him.

Afterwards, nothing else to say...

"Please take my knees!!!"
