Chapter 344: Drive away wild boars and obtain pig intestines as food(1/2)

 Continue to look at the situation of other fruit trees.

When we come to the fig tree, there are some more fruits to pick.

Li You picked all the fruits that could be picked and put them in the storage cabinet.

Except for loquats and mulberries, all other fruit trees were planted later.

Li You looked around and saw that they were all growing very well. Some of them should be able to bear fruit this year.

The rest will be able to bear fruit next year.

By then you will be able to achieve fruit freedom.

It’s worth looking forward to!

After visiting Baiguoyuan, Li You came to the vegetable garden.

Tomatoes, cucumbers, and bitter melons are all ready to be harvested.

Picked them all and put them in the storage cabinet.

In addition, the loofah is almost ready to be harvested. In a few days, the loofah will be eaten.

As for the other vegetables, lettuce, peas, eggplant, edamame, okra, cauliflower, etc., they all grow very well and look very pleasing to the eye.

I just can’t eat it in a short time.

But it doesn’t matter, just wait for them to bloom and bear fruit.

Afterwards, Li You returned to the front of the store.

Lean on the rocking chair and rest for a while.

There is a fair in town today, and motorcycles, electric scooters, or tricycles pass by from time to time on the road next to it, which is very lifelike.

Soon, Li You saw a familiar figure, Lin Guodong from Taoshan Village.

Lin Guodong came from the town on his motorcycle, probably coming back from the market.

When we reached the parking lot, we turned into the parking lot.

After parking the motorcycle, he walked over and said, "Xiaoyou, don't you want to transplant a wild fruit tree? Yesterday I found a three-meter-high jujube tree in our village, which is more suitable for transplanting. Do you want to go?

Dig it over?"

"Jujube tree?"

Li You's eyes lit up. Of course I want it!

The fruit on the guaizao tree is called guaizao.

Of course, this statement is not accurate. Because the Jujube tree is not the fruit of the Jujube tree, but the infructescence axis of the fruit.

This kind of fruiting axis is fat and curved, some look like chicken feet, and some look like the symbol of "ten thousand" in Buddhism, swastika.

Therefore, guaizao is also called chicken feet, or Wanshou fruit or Wanzi fruit.

This is also an edible part. It tastes sweet and has a good texture.

The real fruit of Jujube is at the end of the infructescence axis. It is a drupe, nearly spherical and very small.

Inedible and inconspicuous.

This is a very common and well-known wild fruit. Its real scientific name is Hovenia truncatula.

However, the name "Zhichun" is not famous. Many people don't know it.

Or the aliases of jujube, chicken feet, longevity fruit, and ten thousand-character fruit are even more famous.

The jujube tree is a very tall tree. The height is generally more than 10 meters, and the highest can reach about 25 meters.

If it is a mature tree, it will undoubtedly be very difficult to transplant it.

Now Lin Guodong said that there is a tree over three meters high, which is very suitable for transplanting.

Go dig it back.

Go now.

However, Lin Guodong said, "Xiaoyou, you are busy, you don't have to go. I can dig it out for you directly. I just stopped by to ask if you want it? If so, I will dig it out for you this afternoon."

Li You quickly expressed his thanks. However, how can you trouble others like this?

Li You said: "Uncle Guodong, I'm not busy now. I'll go with you, and then I'll bring you back by myself. Otherwise, it will be too much trouble for you."

Lin Guodong nodded, "That's okay. Let's go."

"Okay!"

Li You got on the motorcycle. Lin Guodong returned to the parking lot and also got on the motorcycle.

The two of them arrived at Taoshan Village without any delay along the way.

After entering the village, Lin Guodong said: "Go to my house first, and let's get the tools."

Li You nodded, "Sorry for bothering Uncle Guodong."

The two of them walked to Lin Guodong's house.

Not far away, I heard a "bang, bang, bang, bang" sound coming from not far away.

The sound is messy and harsh.

Could this sound be...

Li You thought of a possibility and said to Lin Guodong: "Uncle Guodong, is there a wild boar in someone's field?"

Wild boar is a medium-to-large mammal. Its body length can exceed two meters and its weight can exceed 400 kilograms.

The largest wild boar can even weigh up to 1,000 kilograms.

This is an absolute beast.

Even if a tiger sees such a giant beast, it will have to stay away.

Of course, wild boars of such a large size are very rare. Generally speaking, wild boars do not weigh more than 400 kilograms.

But even so, the danger of wild boars is still quite high.

"One pig, two bears, three tigers" is a saying that has been around since ancient times. Although it does not mean that wild boars are more powerful than bears and tigers, it at least shows that wild boars are quite dangerous.

Wild boars are omnivorous, eating anything, and are extremely adaptable. In addition, they are protected by the country, and their numbers are increasing now.

It’s even a bit overwhelming.

Wenxian Town has such a situation.

When there is a lack of food, wild boars may damage crops in the field.

Wild boars are very destructive. If not driven away, crops in the entire field will be destroyed.

Therefore, once a wild boar is discovered entering a crop field, the villagers will drive it away as soon as possible.

The most common and effective method of repelling is to make noise.

Wild boars are very sensitive to sounds and are afraid of them. Making noise can be a very effective way to drive them away.

Therefore, when he heard the "clang" sound coming from not far away, Li You's first thought was that wild boars had entered someone's land and someone was driving them away.

Lin Guodong nodded and said: "It should be. Let's go over and see if we can help?"

"Okay."

The motorcycle could not pass in the direction where the sound came from. The two people parked the motorcycle on the side of the road and ran towards the direction of the sound.

After turning a big bend, I saw a wild boar in a cornfield near a mountain forest.

The corn in the field has basically grown. In about ten days, the tender corn should be almost ready to eat.

It would be a pity if this was caused by wild boars.

"It belongs to Zhang Zongfu's family," Lin Guodong said.

Li You nodded. He had already seen Zhang Zongfu. He was holding an aluminum pot lid in one hand, and then the two pot lids kept colliding with each other, making a "clang-clang-clang" sound.

Zhang Zongfu is the person who asked Li You to help sell wild Ganoderma lucidum last time.

In the end, Li You bought the Ganoderma lucidum herself and took it home for her parents to soak in water to drink.

It’s not finished yet.

In addition to Zhang Zongfu, there is also a villager named Zhou Yuanji who is helping. He takes a bamboo pole and breaks one end of the bamboo pole.

The sound is made by hitting the ground with the broken end.

The sound is not small either.

No wild boars have been seen yet. However, judging from the corn stalks shaking in many places in the corn field, there are quite a few wild boars in the field, at least seven or eight.

It is not difficult to drive wild boars out of cornfields.

However, what Zhang Zongfu and Zhou Yuanji want to do is not just to drive the wild boars out of the cornfields, but also to drive the wild boars back into the mountains and forests.

This is difficult, especially now that there are seven or eight wild boars.
To be continued...
