Chapter 166 Longan is ripe

In order to allow those naughty children and adults to bathe here, the village also specially scooped sand from various parts of the stream and piled it on the shore of the shallows to form a soft beach, and placed it about two or three meters away from the shore.

Wooden stakes were driven into the rice water and ropes were pulled up to prevent adults and children from swimming around and causing trouble. To prevent accidents, the village even hired someone to watch over the area.

From then on, every afternoon, when the sun was about to set, a large group of adults and children came here to play in the sand and swim. Over time, this place became a scenery in Xiaoxi Village.

They simply set up a small stall here to sell things, and the business was pretty good. Le Lang also took Sanlang there a few times, and it felt really good to step on the soft beach and feel the cool mountain breeze.

Now Saburo has become a unique scenery in Xiaoxi Village. Everyone likes to take pictures of him and likes to admire his chubby appearance. Sometimes he also sits on the mustache goat and makes everyone take pictures, but this is not the case.

It depends on whether he is in a good mood. Now, Lelang's home has a lot of tourists taking photos and sending them to him. Shenmin also specially selected a few good-looking ones to upload to the Internet.

Shenmin and his wife made Xiaoxi Village's website very popular. Most people who come to Xiaoxi Village know that there is such a website in Xiaoxi Village, and the trading platform they created has also been widely praised by everyone.

.Many people in the village can sell things without going out, which is an extra source of income. However, to send things, you still have to go to the town to send them, which is more troublesome.

Lelang stood at the door and looked into the distance. The green mountains were misty in the distance, and birds flew between the foothills from time to time. The waves of the lake were rippling, and a bunch of people were taking photos, chatting and resting there, and some were holding fish.

Fishing with poles. These people all drove up. Fortunately, the lake is spacious enough.

A group of little kids walked down the mountain, holding bunches of longan in their hands, eating as they walked, chattering and getting extremely proud of themselves.

They came to Lelang's side, and Shi Dan among them gave him a handful of longan, "Uncle Alang, eat longan."

Alang took the longan in his hand and ate one. It tasted pretty good.

"Where did you pick it?" Le Lang asked to the stone eggs. Except for practicing martial arts in the morning, these little kids spent the rest of the time jumping up and down, like monkeys, never settling down for a moment. Children, the most

What I like is to steal things from other people's orchards. These boys are quite clever in stealing. One person is outside to watch, and the other person is responsible for informing people.

Has caused harm.

For this reason, I don’t know how many times Shi Dan has been sued by others, and how many times he has eaten "fried shrimps with bamboo sticks" from his father, but it is still the same. Who calls him such a little nod?

"What you picked stolen belongs to my family. Today my family picked longans. I'll bring some for you to try, otherwise it will be gone." After hearing Le Lang's words, Shi Dan jumped to his feet and shouted.

"Oh, I still need your longan? Look over there, there's a lot of it and you can't finish it." As he said that, Le Lang pointed to the longan forest next to him and the longan tree by the lake.

"Is your longan as delicious as mine? I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to play with Saburo." After saying that, he ran away like crazy, followed by a lot of little kids.

"This kid." Le Lang looked at it and scolded with a smile.

Nowadays, the longan has gradually begun to mature. Except for the old longan tree in his yard, which is relatively late-ripening, the longan of Lelang's family is almost ripe. It is time to find a time to pick it, otherwise insects will grow if left for too long.

The price of longan this year is extremely low. When it first came out, it was only more than three yuan per pound. After a while, it was almost two and a half yuan, about two yuan, and finally it was only one and a half yuan, but this is only the price here in Nanzhou.

, I heard that other places are more expensive.

This year's longan is good, most of them are high-yielding, but high-yielding means falling prices. Throughout the year, a longan tree can harvest more than 200 kilograms at most, and some are around 100 kilograms. In fact, it can't be sold for much money. No wonder now

People all over the world have chopped longan and lychees and planted them in other crops. Take bayberry as an example. When it first came out, it was sold for 10 to 8 yuan per catty. At the end of the day, it was only 2 yuan per catty, about 2 to 5 yuan.

That said, longan is indeed cheap.

Longan has many functions such as strengthening yang and replenishing qi, replenishing the heart and spleen, nourishing blood and calming the nerves, moisturizing and beautifying, etc. It can treat anemia, heart palpitations, insomnia, forgetfulness, neurasthenia, post-illness and postpartum physical weakness. It is also used for beautification and longevity.

Efficacy. In addition, the leaves, flowers, roots and core of longan can be used as medicine. The longan tree is hard in texture and has delicate and beautiful texture. It is a raw material for making high-end furniture and can be carved into various exquisite crafts.

In southern Fujian, postpartum women have to stew black-bone chicken with dried longan to nourish their body during confinement. This way, they will not have any sequelae after giving birth, and they will stay strong and enjoy the delicious food.

Le Lang thought to himself, if the price of longan is too low, then he can bake it into dried longan. The price of dried longan is better, but it is more troublesome. It has to be cut into pieces and baked over charcoal fire. There is one in the village.

There is a small kiln specially used for drying longan. Baking is not a problem, but it is troublesome. After baking, the longan meat must be peeled off. Otherwise, if it is stored for a long time, the baked longan will become moldy and lose its smell.

Rotten.

He was thinking about something when he suddenly heard a "click" and a flash light came on. Le Lang subconsciously covered his face with his hands and said, "Don't take pictures."

Everyone who comes to play by the lake will be curious about the house built by the lake. Some will inevitably come to get to know him, and some will take photos with him. Lelang doesn't like this, and most of them politely decline.

.

Le Lang took the hand in front of him and took a look. It turned out to be Xiao Wu, who often came to take pictures of birds. By the way, this kid was neither a zoologist nor a bird lover, but even though he came to take pictures every week, he didn't know where he was.

What kind of bird are you shooting? But Lelang has seen the photos he took. They are really beautiful, vivid and expressive. I heard that he published these photos in National Geographic magazine and won some awards.

"Yeah, Xiao Wu, you're here again. Why didn't you go shoot the birds?" Le Lang asked the man in front of him. Xiao Wu was wearing glasses and carrying a backpack. He looked very polite.

"I finished shooting early. I brought some delicious food here today. Let's have a few sips." Xiao Wu said, moving his backpack in front of him.

Le Lang glanced at him interestingly and walked in. He thought to himself: Good boy, here we go again. Ever since Xiao Wu got acquainted with him, he showed a treacherous face that was far from being as gentle as he appeared.

Looking at Lelang, Xiao Wu remembered the first time he came here. I remember that when he first came here, there were not so many people here. At that time, he also heard about this place from his friends.

There are a lot of birds, so I just came here. When I came, I only brought camera equipment and water, and nothing else.

When it was near noon, I was very hungry. It would take a long time to walk down the mountain, so I didn’t want to go down. I was still hungry after drinking water, so I had to go to Lelang’s place to try and see if he could help him make a bowl of noodles or something. What a big deal.

Give me money?

He was thinking in his mind that he came to Le Lang's house and asked him to help him cook something to eat. Unexpectedly, Le Lang refused. He was not the only one who came here to play, and he was not the only one who had this idea. But no one

I know that Lelang needs to take a rest after eating. If he gives it to these people

He still doesn't sleep when it comes to cooking. Besides, he is also a troublesome person. He is happy to cook for himself, but there is no way to cook for a bunch of people who don't want to do it. So, every time these people come over and ask him to cook.

Sometimes, he would ask them to go to a restaurant in the village to eat.

After refusing once, the people who came again knew it. Some people didn't want to go to the village to eat and just brought their own things. However, if people wanted to help, with drinking water and so on, Lelang was still happy to help, as long as it didn't delay his sleep.

For this reason, he hung a sign at the door that read: "Sleep at noon, please do not disturb, 12:00-14:00." People laughed when they saw it, and it became a joke in the village.

However, his group of friends and villagers ignored his sign and barked loudly when he came. If he didn't come out, they would call until he came out.

Xiao Wu remembered that he was very embarrassed when he was rejected by Le Lang. At that time, after Le Lang finished speaking, he shook his head and walked inside. When he saw it, he was anxious and hungry. He didn't even have the strength to walk down the mountain.

. He hurriedly ran in, wanting to catch up with Le Lang and have a look, but he didn't see the three points watching eagerly from the side.

At three o'clock, I saw him running in, and I immediately pounced on him. The one-meter-tall man, with a body of about two meters, rushed towards him like a tiger, threw him to the ground, opened his bloody mouth and was about to attack him.

He bit down on his neck, and Xiao Wu was lucky enough to faint. Le Lang, who ran out after hearing the sound, saw it and drank three o'clock.

I walked over and saw that Xiao Wu had fainted. I quickly put him on a chair and used cold water to wake him up.

When Xiao Wu woke up, he shouted loudly: "Oh my God."

Le Lang quickly comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay, I won't bite at three o'clock."

When Xiao Wu heard this, he looked at him as if he was trying to fool a lunatic. Lelang didn't explain, but went into the kitchen and fried the leftovers from lunch into egg fried rice. He also used the remaining soup to cook it again and served it to him.

Xiao Wu came out. His chest was already hungry and pressed against his back belly. But after being frightened by three o'clock, his whole body was already sore and weak. When he saw the food, he immediately started to wolf it down. After eating, Le Lang also brought out banana wine and mixed it with

He drank.
