Reborn Dad, I Got Rich From Selling Tea Eggs

Lin Jue came to the north of the mountain. The vegetation here is indeed more lush than other places. The villagers have very few fields, and most of the areas grow wild grasses and trees that are common in the area.

As soon as he came to the mountainside, he found the large wild tea forest that Grandpa Yang Lin mentioned, growing in the gaps between the piles of rocks, and the trees were all strange shapes.

These wildly grown tea trees have particularly tenacious vitality. Although the quality of the tea produced is not good, they are all individuals with strong adaptability and disease resistance under natural selection.

Transplanting them to the field should also have a high survival rate.

Lin Jue cut off the branches above the ground with a machete, shaved them all into "bald heads", and only excavated the roots underneath.

While digging with a hoe, he accidentally discovered some plants with small white flowers growing under the tea tree.

The leaves of this plant look familiar.

"Could this be... a wild Huang Jing?"

Lin Jue squatted down to observe its leaves. When he was a child, he had seen a similar plant at his grandfather's. Grandpa said it was called Polygonatum, which is a Chinese herbal medicine.

It is said to have the effect of nourishing qi and nourishing yin, nourishing yin, invigorating the spleen, moistening the lungs and benefiting the kidney.

It can benefit the weakness of the limbs caused by weak spleen and stomach, mental fatigue, and chronic cough caused by lung deficiency.

This kind of traditional Chinese medicine is one of the medicinal materials that are often used to make soup in Guangdong. Huangjing stewed chicken is also a very famous dish!

"It's not bad, you can actually dig up Huang Jing! There are still a lot of Huang Jing here, so dig a few more and go back to plant them!"

He dug up the soil with a hoe and took out the tubers under the sealwort intact.

These rhizomes, like sweet potatoes, will germinate and take root as long as the environment is suitable, and new plants will grow.

Lin Jue spent an hour digging up the tops of six wild tea trees and five wild sealworts on the Black Elephant Mountain.

He happily went down the mountain and returned to Niutoushan, his own field.

As soon as I walked near the field, I smelled the strong fragrance of flowers floating in the air. This smell is not the smell of star anise flowers, but another kind of pungent and fragrant fragrance.

Not only that, but he also heard lively birds chirping, at least a dozen birds chirping and chirping, as if they were at a party.

"It's strange, there were no flocks of birds when we came here last time?"

Lin Jue went into the field, only then did he realize that there was a large group of sparrows standing on his thorn tree and stealing the fruit!

The thorn bubble tree has blossomed and bore fruit during his absence.

At this time, the bright red, strawberry-sized spiny fruits are densely pressed on the branches, and the picture is very impactful!

The fruits were all red and ripe. The sparrows found the red fruits and gathered a large group of birds to eat them to their heart's content!

Lin Jue was really angry and speechless when he saw the pecked fruit on the branches.

This group of sparrows is really too clever, so quickly found that the fruit is ripe, it seems that some scarecrows must be set up here to intimidate!

He picked up a branch, ran over, and drove the sparrow away with three or two strokes!

After all the birds had run away, he checked the fruits.

The thorn tree has grown into a dense bush. This plant grows very fast. After being removed from the pot, it begins to completely let itself grow, and the open space under the big tree is covered by it.

Lush and lush, look vibrant.

Each branch is full of fruit, and there are four to five hundred fruits by visual inspection.

A small number of them were pecked by sparrows, but the number was not large and the loss was not large.

"Fortunately, I came early, and these sparrows haven't eaten too much fruit. Otherwise, my work would have been in vain. I worked so hard to grow fruits, and ended up saving a group of wild birds!"

Lin Jue was not in a hurry to pick the fruit. He first planted the tea tree heads and sealwort in the basket, and watered them with spring water.

And he planted the laurel next to the pepper tree. After placing them, he found that the flowers of the pepper tree were in full bloom.

The number of small white flowers all over the tree is amazing!

Its flowers are very low-key and small, but the fragrance is particularly strong, which can be said to be so fragrant that it is close to smelly.

The scent of flowers that Lin Jue smelled outside the field just now seems to belong to it.

The star anise tree on the side has also been covered with small green anises.

The fruit is smaller than ordinary star anise, and some are even as big as a fingernail, which can be called "mini star anise"!

The size of the star anise really surprised Lin Jue, he wondered if the spring water didn't help the star anise tree, but instead made the quality of the fruit worse?

Until he picked an star anise fruit, crushed it, put it under the tip of his nose and smelled it, the strong scent of spices in his nose instantly refreshed him.

"Oh, this taste!"

Lin Jue was secretly surprised, he suddenly recalled that before he was reborn, he had worked in a famous braised meat shop.

The owner of the store is a person who strives for excellence. He strives to find the best quality spices in China, and purchase them for use!

At that time, Lin Jue happened to be entrusted with an important task by the boss, and sent him to other places to come to "Fangchenggang", the most famous star anise planting place at that time!

Fangcheng District of Fangchenggang City is the only county in China that grows star anise and cinnamon with an area of ​​over one million mu!

The star anise produced here is also of the best quality and the most diverse variety!

Lin Jue was lucky to be there and discovered the best quality star anise spices that he had come into contact with over the years as a chef.

He still remembers the fragrance he smelled at that time, it can be said to be extremely amazing, almost perfect!

At this time, the aroma of the small star anise fruit in Lin Jue's hand is even more amazing than the star anise he found in Fangchenggang at that time!

The stewed meat made with this kind of star anise is so delicious that diners simply cannot resist its temptation!

"It's great, I can't wait to try, what effect will the spices poured out of the spiritual spring water have on cooking!"

Lin Jue secretly expects that if he can make dishes with a stable taste and high quality like tea eggs, he will be able to sell new products in the village soon!

However, he was in no rush to pick.

The star anise fruit is not yet fully ripe, at least it can be picked tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and after picking, it needs to be processed and completely dried before it can be used.

In order to get better quality spices, he has enough patience to wait.

Lin Jue knelt down and took out a packet of seeds from the basket.

This was yesterday when he went to the county seat. He went to the seed shop and bought a catty of white radish seeds from the boss!

A catty of seeds weighs a bag, and those who don't know it may think that his family is a big farmer with ten thousand mu of land!

Anyway, such a big bag of seeds can be used for a year and a half without any problem.

In a short time, there is no need to buy white radish seeds.

He simply turned the field over, replanted the seeds, and irrigated the spring water evenly. If there is no accident, he will be able to harvest another wave tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

busy

After a circle, he returned to the thorn bubble tree.

Under the scorching sun, Lin Jue was sweating profusely and had a dry mouth.

I couldn't help picking a few fleshy, crystal-clear prickly pears, stuffed them into my mouth, took a bite, and the pulp burst instantly!

The juice inside is rich, with the temperature after being exposed to the sun, sour and sweet, full of juice, very satisfying!

These prickly pears are the size of a strawberry, seven or eight times larger than ordinary wild prickly pears.

The skin of the fruit is very thin, it will break when you touch it, the flesh is fine and slag-free, and the sweetness is quite high, it even feels like eating "sugar buns"!

Prickly pear has a special fruity aroma, which can make people feel good after eating it.

Lin Jue couldn't help but ate six or seven fruits, one bite at a time. If his stomach wasn't so full that he started hiccupping, he almost couldn't stop!

"These fruits are really good, they are so addictive!"

After resting for a while, he took out a clean plastic bag from the basket and started picking fruits, picking all the ripe fruits on the branches.

These thorny fruits are not resistant to storage. Once they are ripe, they are easy to rot. It is best to sell them on the same day after picking them. If they cannot be sold, they can only be made into jam!

It is also fine to make jam, as long as the quality is good and the price is more expensive, people will buy it!

After spending an hour, I finally got all the fruits!

After watering the thorn tree, Lin Jue took a sickle to the field to cut some Miscanthus grass, chopped a few bamboos, and made a simple scarecrow.

Fix the scarecrow next to the thorn tree, and when he comes over tomorrow, he will find some rags from home and put it on, so that it will look decent!

"I don't know if the agricultural cooperative in the village sells bird repellents? This thing can play the sound of eagles on a loop. If you hang it on this tree, you won't be afraid of birds coming to the field to steal it!"

Lin Jue plans to stop by there to ask before going up the mountain next time.

After picking the fruit and weeding, it's time to go home for dinner.

Before he knew it, he had been busy all afternoon, and it was already sunset. He carried his hoe and went home facing the colorful clouds, and there were also flocks of birds flying by in the sky, preparing to return to their nests.

The whole village is peaceful.

He was walking on the ridge of the field, and many of the rice in the rice fields had already matured, and the farmers were harvesting one after another. Many uncles and aunts in the field greeted him warmly when they saw him.

"Xiaojue, right? You're back from working in the fields!" An aunt waved to him with a big smile.

Lin Jue thought he was an acquaintance, but after a closer look, he found it very strange, as if he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it.

The aunt was wearing waterproof pants, and came from the paddy field dragging a plastic bucket.

There was a splashing sound in the bucket, and it turned out to be several crucian carp and big carp!

"Today, we opened the floodgates in the paddy field and caught a lot of fish. I'll bring you two big carps and make them for the children!" Taking advantage of the situation, the aunt wanted to catch fish from the bucket for him.

Lin Jue hurriedly yelled: "No need aunt, this can't be done!"

This aunt is not related to him, so how could he have the nerve to take her fish.

The aunt straightened up, smiled and said: "Last time I went to your place to buy tea eggs, and I gave them to my man when I came back. The effect is really good! It is much better than the old Chinese medicine doctor in our village. His disease has been cured for several years. It can't be cured!"

Lin Jue laughed awkwardly, it turned out that this aunt had bought tea eggs from him.

No wonder she has this attitude.
