MTL - Transmigrated To Ancient Times To Farm And Build A Kingdom-Chapter 9 picking ginkgo
"Chang Xia, don't you go to the holy mountain of Karna to visit the witch?" Shen Rong asked.
Chang Xia thought for a while, shook his head, rejected Shen Rong's proposal, and said, "In a few days, the witch will come to the tribe. We just moved, we should stock up some more things, wait for the witch to come to the tribe, I want to invite the witch to sit at home. "
Chang Xia regarded the witch as a relative.
Living alone in the tribe at the beginning, Chang Xia wanted to show Wu the best side.
It is obviously not suitable to go to the holy mountain of Karna now.
"Okay, listen to you." Shen Rong understood what Chang Xia said, but he didn't want to meet Wu too early.
Soon, the two left the Salt Lake.
It didn't take a moment for him to arrive at the foot of Xiangfeng Mountain.
Xiangfeng Mountain, the mountain is just like its name, and it looks like Xiangfeng, so it is named Xiangfeng Mountain. Ginkgo tree grows in the foothills of Xiangfeng Mountain.
Unlike tall broad-leaved forests, ginkgo trees are generally low and similar to bushes. The tallest ginkgo tree is only a little over two meters tall. Short, about one meter.
In this way, even the cubs can pick ginkgo.
"I knew it was impossible to come to Xiangfeng Mountain..."
Looking at the fruit-bearing ginkgo tree, Chang Xia happily slipped down from Shen Rong beast. Neatly put the basket aside, fist-sized ginkgo trees were hanging all over the branches, green and green, very beautiful.
Ginkgo, the reason why it is called Ginkgo.
Just because it dries it turns white.
At the same time, the fruit powder ground into powder is also white powder.
"So much?" Shen Rong was slightly startled, and said in surprise, "Didn't the tribe come to Xiangfeng Mountain to pick?" Unless the ginkgo is picked, it won't fall even in the cold winter. In addition to orcs picking and collecting, only birds and some herbivores eat ginkgo.
"The tribe has not had many beast cubs in recent years, and the ginkgo near the tribe is enough to eat. You know the adult orcs, not many people like to eat fruit powder..." Chang Xia shrugged and explained.
The fruit powder paste tastes average.
Orcs don't have any flavoring things like sugar.
Unless hoarding for the winter in the cold season, ordinary orcs will not deliberately pick ginkgo.
Besides, as long as the ginkgo is not picked, it will not fall, so there is no waste.
"The fruit powder paste with honey tastes very good." Shen Rong said.
Chang Xia pouted and looked at Shen Rong with a greedy face, "Honey is hard to harvest. The tribe gets a little bit every year. Except for a little bit, the rest will be sent to the holy mountain of Karna. Sugar, unless someone knows how to make sugar..."
"Sugar, you mean sucrose?" Shen Rong hesitated.
Honey, the orcs and bears have them. However, few bear clan orcs are willing to trade.
The other candies I have never eaten in Chang Xia. She didn't know what Shen Rong said about sucrose. When it comes to the sucrose of the earth, she understands.
Sucrose is divided into brown sugar and brown sugar.
The cooking process of brown sugar is complicated, and its color is darker than that of brown sugar. At the same time, brown sugar has a caramel flavor, which is also absent from brown sugar.
"What is sucrose?" Chang Xia tilted his head and asked Shen Rong, pretending he didn't understand.
"A kind of sugar made from plants." Shen Rong said embarrassedly. Sucrose comes from the Western Land, and the Orcs of the Eastern Land seem to have not yet mastered the sugar-making technology. He had eaten it, but he didn't know how to make sugar, and he couldn't even recognize the plants that made it.
Chang Xia looked at Shen Rong silently.
With this appearance, at a glance, you can understand what you ask and what you don't know.
"Cane sugar, is it sugar made from a plant called cane?" Chang Xia pretended to guess that the cane sugar was mostly raw sugar made from sugar cane.
It's just that I don't know if this sucrose is brown sugar or brown sugar.
Sugar, except sugar cane.
Like beets, maple/maple, thatch roots, etc.
These can be boiled into sugar.
Unfortunately, Changxia has not found these plants yet.
"Yeah!" Shen Rong nodded, thought about it, and said, "It seems to be called sugar cane, I'm not sure."
"Where have you eaten sucrose?" Chang Xia asked curiously.
Shen Rong pinched the bridge of his nose and replied, "Xilu."
Upon hearing this, Chang Xia took a rest.
Westland—
She didn't even go out of Donglu Twilight Forest.
Too far.
Maybe, someday, I'll find sugar cane beets or something in the Twilight Forest.
Sugar can also look forward to one or two. Now, it is still important to pick ginkgo, after all, it is a major matter of appetite in the future.
The two of them started talking while they started, and quickly filled the backpack they brought.
Chang Xia estimated the weight of the ginkgo in the basket. After drying, it should be about three or four hundred kilograms. Unlike fruit, ginkgo looks the size of a fist and does not take up weight.
Considering the appetite of the orcs' bottomless pit, Chang Xia thought that a few hundred pounds was too little.
Besides, in this ginkgo forest at the foot of Xiangfeng Mountain, they haven't even finished picking one percent.
"Is it enough?" Shen Rong asked.
Chang Xia looked at the ginkgo forest, shook his head and said, "Not enough. You can weave a few more baskets. These baskets of ginkgo fruit are only a few hundred kilograms in the sun. If the ginkgo is ground into flour or flour, the quantity will be reduced. It is rare to come here once, and we will pick some and bring them back to the animal den to dry."
Actually, if you can.
Chang Xia even wanted to pick all the ginkgo trees from the ginkgo tree in Xiangfeng Mountain and put them back in the animal den.
After the ginkgo trees are picked, they will continue to bloom and bear fruit.
This reincarnation.
After a period of time, you can continue to pick.
Chang Xia did not calculate the growth time of ginkgo.
However, she guessed by feeling that she should be able to receive three or four rounds. Otherwise, it is impossible for the Dusk Forest to pick and harvest ginkgo fruits all year round, even in the cold winter.
At the same time, the ginkgo fruit is also very dense.
If ginkgo can be eaten as a staple food, it would be perfect.
If he didn't want to build a home of his own, Chang Xia would be more willing to leave his time to research ginkgo and gourmet food. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
After all, there are so many plants and animals in Dusk Forest that she has never seen before.
"Okay. I'm going to cut some vines over here, don't walk around." Shen Rong urged, he didn't dare to go too far, so he cut a bunch of vines nearby.
After a while.
I made several baskets.
The basket was inconvenient to tie up, so Shen Rong decided to make it into a basket.
Chang Xia took the basket and put the picked ginkgo into it. It didn't take much time to refill the baskets that were made up.
Chang Xia wiped the hot sweat from her forehead and looked at the sun above her head, approaching noon.
Just right, I'm hungry too.
"Shen Rong, come and tidy up the back basket and basket. It's time to go home!" Chang Xia shouted, calling back Shen Rong who was picking the ginkgo, planning to rectify the harvest and go home.
"Is the basket full?" Shen Rong came over carrying the basket.
Chang Xia nodded and said, "It's all filled. Go back and leave it in the sun for a few days, and then you can grind it into powder. When that time comes, I'll make something delicious for you." pink. Thinking about it, Chang Xia was very happy.
Looking at Chang Xia's happy smiling face, Shen Rong followed with a smile.
It's getting late.
They did not delay and decided to return to the tribe.
Shen Rong squatted down and turned into a beast.
Helping Chang Xia with the wolf's tail, he fixed all the baskets and backs. Finally, they circled Chang Xia again, and the two ran towards the tribe.
Although, I didn't pick wild vegetables and collect other food this time.
Chang Xia didn't worry at all, facing the lake, she never worried about starvation at all.
The two of them have gained a lot, and they are in a very good mood.
And he was thinking in his mind, what to eat for lunch. Fish balls, or stewed meat. Or, stir-fry wild vegetables with fried meat?
At this time, Chang Xia and the two did not know that someone was waiting for them in the animal den.
