Chapter 1603

Devil ginger is delicious but not easy to dig. First, they are brittle and easy to break, while devil ginger is easy to get dirty. They can well absorb seasoning, seasoning and soil, so they can't eat.

Moreover, the place where the devil Jiang lives is on the hillside. There are crushed stones below. It is difficult to dig with a shovel and military knife. Sometimes he hits the gravel as soon as he goes down, and he has to lift the gravel to dig it out.

After digging for ten years, he broke four pieces. Qin Shiou was a little impatient and said, "otherwise, forget it and don't dig."

However, Iverson was very patient and said with a smile, "I'll dig and you can play."

When Qin Shiou taught him to dig, he told him that it was delicious, and as long as the work was related to eating, Iverson would work hard.

Bird dug there very smoothly. He was an expert with a knife. A military knife was in his hand like a spirit snake and a cook to remove the gravel around the devil ginger, and then cut off the tubers.

Qin Shiou had to continue digging. He remembered that there were some open spaces on both sides of the river in the fishing ground. In fact, devil ginger could be planted. In this way, it would be easy to eat devil ginger in the future, and you can dig with machines.

Guizijiang is a kind of vegetation very suitable for planting in Canada. It can even be said that it is the most suitable vegetation for human planting known by Qin Shiou.

First of all, it has a wide range of uses. Tubers are rich in starch and can be used as human food, while stems, leaves and flowers can be mixed with seaweed to make fish feed.

Tubers are also very rich in food. It's good to eat steamed, boiled, fried and pickled. In Qin Shiou's hometown, devil ginger has always been a good pickle; In addition, we can extract inulin and alcohol. Inulin is also a good medicine for diabetes and a valuable industrial raw material.

Secondly, Guizi ginger is rich in fructose inulin. After extraction, it can be transformed into fructooligosaccharide through complex chemical process, and the high fructooligosaccharide contained in fructooligosaccharide can be transformed into biodiesel through the action of cell factory after being added to E. coli.

In addition, it can also be used as food and beverage. Food containing inulin and fructooligosaccharides are produced in the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Australia and Taiwan. Inulin extracted from Guizi ginger has been used in dairy products, lactic acid bacteria drinks, solid drinks, candy, biscuits, jelly and cold drinks.

Qin Shiou has always wanted to make health food. Devil ginger is one of them. It is especially suitable for health food and elderly food.

With this in mind, Qin Shiou discussed with bird. Bird also knew devil Jiang. Of course, it was called Jerusalem artichoke in the United States. When they were in the army, they learned to find food from the wild, and Jerusalem artichoke was the first choice.

Bird said: "even if we don't need to develop health food, we can eat a batch of Jerusalem artichoke by ourselves. It can also be used to make wine and drink. The branches and leaves won't be wasted. Can we produce feed? Isn't it? "

Qin Shiou nodded and said, "write it down. Let's plant it sometime."

Bird said no problem and said, "in fact, our fishing ground is not suitable for planting this thing. It's better to go to Daqin No. 3 fishing ground, where the temperature is higher and the light is more. By the way, isn't there a big river? The root system of Jerusalem artichoke is particularly developed. Each Jerusalem artichoke has hundreds of root systems up to one or two meters, which can plunge into the land and protect water and soil. "

The propagation and expansion of Jerusalem artichoke is very fast. It only takes two to three days to form a protective network woven by the stems and roots of Jerusalem artichoke on the surface, which can effectively hold the water and soil in the surface layer.

Qin Shiou nodded. Daqin fishing ground is also suitable. Jerusalem artichoke is resistant to cold and drought. Its tubers can survive the winter safely in the frozen soil layer of minus 30 ℃. Their seedlings can endure light frost in early spring and their leaves can endure short-term sub zero temperatures in autumn. Moreover, it is resistant to barren soil and has no strict requirements on soil. It can be planted in other places except acidic soil, swamp and saline alkali areas.

Ghost ginger is not seen on farewell island. Ghost ginger is very common in most parts of North America, and they can be seen on the roadside.

Even, in many places, this thing has been used as disaster vegetation. Americans and Canadians do not eat it directly, but send it to factories as raw materials for reprocessing. Therefore, devil ginger is useless to ordinary people.

However, they have super strong regeneration and reproductive ability, and can reproduce almost permanently once planted. As long as they enter the land suitable for their growth, they can live forever without being affected by the weather:

In case of severe drought, even if there is serious water shortage, it will only lead to the death of all aboveground stems and leaves. When there is water, underground stems will sprout and grow again. And if the tubers are broken, each can develop a new Jerusalem artichoke, with an annual proliferation rate of 20 times!

Moreover, they are not afraid of insect disasters and do not need a lot of nutrients. During the growth period, they do not need management. Once they form a continuous piece, it is difficult for people and animals to destroy their reproduction and development.

After they enter autumn, they will also bear Jerusalem artichoke seeds, and the germination rate is 100%. If you don't harvest them, these Jerusalem artichoke seeds will float to some places with the wind. As long as they are not in the extreme environment, they will settle down and germinate.

Discussing the method of planting devil ginger, Qin Shiou slowly harvested a backpack of tubers.

The tiger and leopard don't go to catch the game. They come to pick up the devil's ginger. Their front claws dig the ground quickly, and they can dig out a devil's Ginger in dozens of seconds. In this way, Qin Shiou can pick it up, and the efficiency is greatly increased.

At noon, Qin Shiou roasted some devil ginger, hung it on the fire with branches, or threw it into the campfire.

The sugar content of wild Jerusalem artichoke is higher. The flesh exposed after peeling off the skin is golden. It is like high-quality sweet potato in her mouth. It is sweet and Sandy. The little girl doesn't eat meat after eating a mouthful of roasted devil ginger. She eats devil ginger with relish.

On his return in the afternoon, he went into the kitchen to wash the devil ginger and cut it into pieces. He put it into the jar left by the salted duck egg, poured soy sauce, vinegar and water, put it into the seasoning bag, covered it and pickled it. He can eat it tomorrow, very fast.

After his busy work, Qin Shiou went to the beer hut and poured a large glass of fresh beer. He sat at the door and drank beer while playing with his daughter.

Shaq went to the town and said when he came back: "boss, little Hughes asked me to tell you that a large group of bream was found in the town from Chenbao lake. There will be a bream fishing competition the day after tomorrow, and then there will be a bream feast. He invited you to attend."

After listening to this, Qin Shiou suddenly got egg pain. He thought of the European bream in Chenbao lake. In order to worry that the people of the Fossil Museum found them in the development process, he also sent them to the northern sea area of Chenbao lake. Unexpectedly, they were found.
