Chapter 1521 Harvest, giant wild yam(2/2)
Wang Yongzhen dug very carefully, digging down little by little, with an excited smile on his face.
"Strong, believe it or not, this wild yam definitely weighs over 10 kilograms."
He dug to a depth of 30 centimeters, looked at the thick rhizome of wild yam, and concluded that it weighed 10 kilograms.
Liu Zhuangshi glanced at him and looked at the wild yam rhizome.
He mocked: "Don't be like last time, with a big neck and a small body. This wild yam must weigh ten kilograms and be at least half a meter long."
Hearing Liu Zhuangshi's words, Wang Yongzhen remembered the embarrassment from the last time.
The last time he looked at the trend of the rhizomes, he thought they would weigh more than 10 kilograms, but the bottom was rotten.
A small whisker sprouted out, weighing less than 2 pounds in total.
It embarrassed him to death.
This time, I must prove myself.
Thinking about it, he dug harder.
Sweat dripped down drop by drop, and the light and shadow shining through the gaps in the leaves gradually moved.
Digging wild yams is strenuous work and requires a lot of patience.
Wild yams grow straight and can only be dug downward, so the longer the wild yam is, the deeper you have to dig.
Even to dig wild yam king, you may have to dig a two-meter pit.
The workload is huge.
The two men dug alternately for a full hour, and they had already dug a pit more than one meter deep.
"Hey hey hey, look, they are still twins. Let alone ten pounds, there are twenty pounds here!" Wang Yongzhen breathed a sigh of relief and handed the little hoe to Liu Zhuangshi.
Climbed the pit.
Liu Zhuangshi's eyes were slightly excited. Twenty kilograms of wild yam was too much.
If you take it back to the trading market, you can redeem it for 10 points.
This wild yam is very rare and can be eaten as a staple food.
However, fresh wild yams contain a lot of water, 80% of which is water.
10 pounds of wild yam, after drying and grinding, only results in 2 pounds of yam powder.
Logically speaking, 2 pounds of yams can be exchanged for 1 point, which means that 1 pound of dry food can be exchanged. In fact, the exchange ratio is still very high.
You must know that 1 catty of gold can only be exchanged for 3 catties of grain.
However, because wild yam is also a traditional Chinese medicine, and the traditional Chinese medicine hall at Dazhangshu Base requires wild yam, a traditional Chinese medicine, it is relatively difficult to mine.
Therefore, the price was slightly increased.
Now in the task hall of the trading bazaar, some other required Chinese medicines have been released.
Just bring it and you can redeem it for points.
All along, most of the herbal medicines in the Chinese Medicine Hall were collected through survivors and collaborators after tasks were issued by the task halls of the Da Zhangshu Base and the Trading Market.
Another hour passed.
Liu Zhuangshi finally dug to the bottom of the wild yam, and he said to Wang Yongzhen above:
"Yongzhen, dig to the bottom!"
"Damn it, these two wild yams together weigh forty kilograms!"
The flesh on his face was shaking with excitement. This was the biggest and thickest wild yam they had ever dug.
Wang Yongzhen's hands trembled, he was so excited that he started beating.
"Don't shout." Liu Zhuangshi reminded him quickly when he saw him like this.
Wang Yongzhen grabbed his hair and roared silently.
The veins on his neck were exposed, his eyes were red, he was bouncing, and he kept patting his chest.
So excited!
So excited!
"Wang Yongzhen, what are you doing?" Chu Juan and others walked out of the bushes and saw Wang Yongzhen who looked like a madman.
"Professor, he may have been bitten by a zombie and will mutate. Stand back and let me do it." A man stopped Chu Juan behind him, took out a hatchet and was about to step forward to kill Wang Yongzhen.
When Wang Yongzhen heard what they said, he trembled and said quickly: "No, no, no, no!"
"I'm so happy! Stop making trouble!"
The man breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, but he wanted to make a joke.
"Huh? Can the zombie still talk? If he can't stay, I'll chop him to death right now!"
As he spoke, he took a few steps towards Wang Yongzhen with the knife in hand.
Wang Yongzhen took a few steps back and fell to the ground.
"Brother Bo, stop making trouble. Look at the pit below. With more than 40 kilograms of wild yam, we will make a fortune!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Hahahaha."
As he said this, Wang Yongzhen couldn't hold back his smile and laughed.
Bo Ge quickly walked over. When he saw the two-meter-deep pit and the two two-meter-long wild yams that were as thick as an elbow, his eyes slowly widened.
"I'm going! I'm going! It's so big!"
"It's still two!"
Chu Juan and others quickly moved over. When they discovered these two huge wild yams, smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
"So big!"
"We're rich!"
"There are forty kilograms of wild yams here, plus the ten kilograms we dug just now, this is 50 kilograms of wild yams, which can be exchanged for 25 points, which is 100 corn cakes. This is enough for us people to eat for ten days!"
"Wang Yongzhen, Liu Zhuangshi, you guys are so awesome!"
"This time, I want to eat something different. Professor Chu, can we not eat tortillas? Can we change it to other steamed buns?"
"I want to eat meat. I haven't eaten meat for a long time."
"Goodbye, meat is too expensive and we can't afford it, so we'd better save some money."
"The corn tortillas are very good. I just like to eat corn tortillas. They are very filling!"
.......
Before they even brought the wild yam back, they were already thinking about the points they could get in exchange for the wild yam.
Imagine using points to purchase various foods later.
Many of them swallow saliva every time they pass by a barbecue restaurant, but every time they can only swallow saliva and smell the taste.
When Chu Juan saw everyone so happy, she was also very happy.
He smiled and said:
"Hurry up and dig out the yam. It's so long that it can only be divided into several sections."
"Okay!" Wang Yongzhen got up and jumped into the pit.
Dig wild yams!
