Shi Yi patted his butt, stood up, and pointed at the villagers behind him: "Well, except for me, an idler, everyone here has to sell their asparagus..."

The drone was lowered, and the camera framed the villagers picking bamboo shoots in twos and threes.

Unlike Shi Yi, they all held fiber bags and quickly picked up the asparagus stalks, without removing the leaves, and stuffed them directly into the bags.

"Sister Yun, how many bamboo shoots did you pick today?" Shi Yi smiled and greeted the woman nearby.

"It's almost a hundred pounds." The other party raised his head and wiped his sweat, "It's a whole bag!"

Shi Yi switched the camera to his mobile phone and pointed it at the bag in Sister Yun's hand.

The tattered fiber bag was bulging with asparagus strands, and many of them were stuck out.

Shi Yi gave her a big thumbs up: "Then you can make four to five hundred today, right?"

Sister Yun smiled very happily: "That's about it. I'll go back after picking up two bags..."

The live broadcast room suddenly became lively.

[Foodie Lianmeng: What? You can earn four to five hundred a day picking asparagus? I only earn less than two hundred a day at work!]

[Moonlight over the Lotus Pond: What a fuss. It costs hundreds of dollars a day to move bricks on the construction site. In this world, you ordinary white-collar workers earn the least...]

[Chopped pepper fish head competition: Ordinary white-collar workers can be shot while lying down.]

Shi Yi walked away from Sister Yun and then explained to everyone with a smile: "Although I make money picking bamboo shoots, it is hard-earned money. Bending down for such a long time is not something ordinary people can bear..."

And the picking time of asparagus is not long, about a month, so this is not a long-term solution.

"But Sister Yun is a very powerful person." Shi Yi told a short story after obtaining the other party's consent.

Her husband died in a car accident early in his life, leaving behind two sick elderly people and two young children.

In order to support her family, she works several jobs, and every year at this time, she comes here to pick asparagus.

"A pound of asparagus delivered to the factory can earn three yuan. She picks two bags a day, which is six hundred yuan."

Shi Yi sighed: "Don't look at me picking it up easily, but I'm just playing for fun. If I really want to be like them, I will easily suffer from chilblains, lumbar muscle strain, etc..."

[Gem Starfish: Woohoo, Sister Yun’s life is so difficult! Brother Yi, I want to donate to her, is that okay?]

[Mercury: Me too. It’s not easy for a woman like her to carry such a big family!]

Shi Yi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile: "I appreciate everyone's kindness on behalf of Sister Yun. But she doesn't need help now!"

Because with the help of the government and her own efforts, Sister Yun has provided for her two children until they graduate from college.

The siblings now work in large companies along the coast and send a lot of money to their mother every month.

Her life now is sweeter than honey!

[Chopped Pepper Fish Head Saigao: Ah? Then why did she come to pick asparagus?]

The audience was dumbfounded.

Shi Yi smiled and guessed: "Probably, for hard-working people, not working for a day would be boring..."

The barrage was full of [???] and [!!!].

After telling Sister Yun's story, Shi Yi calmed down and continued to broadcast wild vegetables.

"We just talked about the three treasures of Yunmeng. Now, I will take you to find the other two treasures."

He walked along the edge of the lake island, carefully avoiding the puddles, wandering around, and finally found a patch of green plants that were different from asparagus.

On the long stems, oval or palm-shaped leaves grow alternately, swaying slightly in the lake breeze, looking shy and cute.

Shi Yi pinched it close to the ground and picked one easily.

He swayed towards the live broadcast room, then leaned over to smell it. He looked intoxicated: "It smells so good!"

[Fisherman Yong Yongqiang: I know this! It’s Artemisia vulgaris!]

[Moonlight over the lotus pond: It’s clearly Artemisia solani!]

[Little girl picking wild vegetables: This is water mugwort, okay. We use it to make cakes here...]

In the barrage, everyone held their own opinions and argued fiercely.

Shi Yi put down the stem in his hand and acted as peacemaker with a smile: "What everyone said is actually correct, it's just that the names are different in different places..."

This is Artemisia striata among the three delicacies of Yunmeng. It is also called mud wormwood, water wormwood, mugwort, etc. The methods are also different.

"Like asparagus, Artemisia annua is also rich in vitamins, amino acids and trace elements. It is also a rare treasure of wild vegetables."

Shi Yi licked his lips: "We usually use its tender tips to make cakes here, and use the tender stems to fry bacon, which are both very delicious..."

[Foodie Lian Meng: Anchor, wake up quickly, your saliva is going to flow out!]

[Gem Starfish: Hahaha, I miss the days when Brother Yi was a food anchor.]

[Moonlight over the Lotus Pond: The recipe for the fish head with two peppers last time was very good. It can be seen that the host has cooking skills!]

Shi Yi smiled and nodded: "Well, I will broadcast live to everyone when I have time, how to cook with Yunmeng Sanzhen..."

While chatting with the audience in the live broadcast room, he was picking mugwort. Before he knew it, there was another handful in the basket.

[Little girl picking wild vegetables: Hey, how strange! Why is it that no one comes to pick wormwood when everyone else is picking asparagus?]

Shi Yi happened to catch a glimpse of this sentence and explained with a smile: "Because asparagus has formed an industry in our country, no matter how large it is, we can all eat it..."

In addition to delivering Artemisia to hotels, the villagers can only sell it themselves, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. If you collect too much, it may not be sold out.

Similar to this is another one of Yunmeng's Three Treasures.

Suddenly, an unceremonious barrage came in aggressively with the special effect of giving a reward.

[The little environmental protection guard rewarded a light luxury boat: I see that the anchor is also a volunteer for environmental protection, why do you want to gather wild vegetables with them? Huzhou has been harvested by you!]

Shi Yi:???

He looked a little confused as the other party sent several rewards in succession, and he finally realized: "But when we come to pick asparagus, we are protecting the environment!"

At this moment, [???] flew out of the entire live broadcast room.

Even the [little environmental protection guard] who questioned him stopped, as if to say: "I just want to see how you can quibble?"

Shi Yi cleared his throat and began to introduce the causes and consequences: "As you all know, Yunmengze is located in the Qingjiang River Basin, and reed papermaking was very developed in the early years..."

Later, the reed papermaking industry was shut down because it polluted the environment. No one cut the reeds on Yunmeng Ze, and they began to grow wildly.

"The reproductive capacity of reed is very strong. Its wanton growth will suppress the living space of other plants."

Shi Yi's expression became serious: "On the other hand, in autumn and winter, dead reeds will rot in the lake islands and produce some harmful substances, polluting the water bodies..."

For this reason, the local government has to invest a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to dispose of these reeds.

"So, we have begun to vigorously develop two industries here."

Shi Yi stretched out two fingers and gestured: "One is asparagus, picking its tender stems; the other is mushrooms, using reeds as a substrate to grow mushrooms..."
