Chapter 200: Picking Wild Grapes in the Mountains

After breakfast, everyone in the group carried bamboo baskets on their backs. Except for the two secret guards who were on duty last night and rested at home, everyone else took their weapons and went up the mountain.

Their main purpose today is to pick wild grapes. The secret guards are mainly responsible for hunting and protecting their masters. Xin Ye and Yan Yiyi are responsible for leading the way. They will occasionally dig some herbs or mountain products. It hasn't rained much recently, so there are not many mushrooms on the mountain, but the humidity in the deep mountains is relatively high, so there will be some.

Yan Yiyi and Xin Ye did not know every kind of mushroom. When they encountered one they did not recognize, Yan Yiyi asked No. 2 to look up information about it. However, the information updated by No. 2 was not all the information about this dynasty. Some of them were indeed not found, so Yan Yiyi secretly picked one and put it in the system window for testing.

Whether it is poisonous and how much it is worth will be displayed in the window.

Moreover, poisonous mushrooms are not necessarily useless. The toxins can be extracted to make poisons. Therefore, the bamboo baskets that Xin Ye carries on his back are filled with poisonous mushrooms or poisonous weeds.

Led by Xin Ye, the group came to the place where they picked wild grapes last year.

This patch of wild grapes covers at least several acres, but most of them are not yet ripe. However, for Hua Muyu, who saw so many wild grapes for the first time, it was already an eye-opener.

"Wow~ So many grapes. This grape is different from the ones we ate before. It's so small." Hua Muyu sighed as he picked one, wiped it on his sleeve, and threw it directly into his mouth.

With a bite of his teeth, the grape juice splashed and filled his entire mouth. Hua Muyu's expression changed instantly, and his brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a mosquito to death.

"Wow - Pah pah pah... So sour! Moreover, it is astringent in the sourness, and then there is a sweet aftertaste in my mouth. It is completely different from those big and sweet grapes I eat!"

Yan Yiyi was amused by Hua Muyu's innocent and stupid look and laughed: "So this is a wild grape, and the grape you ate has just turned red, it would be strange if it is not sour.

Here, try this one." As she spoke, Yan Yiyi handed Hua Muyu a grape that was purple to black.

Hua Muyu looked at Yan Yiyi, then at the grapes in her hand. The grapes just now successfully left a shadow on him. He looked at Yan Yiyi again, hesitated again and again, and finally took the grapes in her hand with the mentality of trusting his sister.

This time, Hua Muyu didn't even wipe it. She closed her eyes and threw the grapes directly into her mouth. Before she even took a bite, her brows furrowed.

"Crack—" The juice of the grapes splashed out and filled her mouth. Hua Muyu's frown gradually relaxed. She suddenly opened her eyes with surprise in her eyes: "Really, this one is much sweeter than the last one!

However, it is still a little sour, I prefer to eat super sweet big grapes! ”

Yan Yiyi smiled and said, "Making wine is not bad. Wines with different flavors taste different.

Okay, you guys pick the ripe ones first, you can come back next time anyway, I'll find some saplings to transplant to the vegetable garden and see if there's any way to change its taste, make it bigger and taste sweeter."

Hua Muyu looked at Yan Yiyi in surprise: "Can you do it?"

Yan Yiyi spread his hands and said, "There's nothing to lose by trying it anyway."

If it were in the past, she didn’t know that there might be time travelers in this world, and she only needed to make do with the form. But now, she has to give it a try. Of course, she needs to seek Yoyo’s help in the research method.

Wow, I find myself increasingly unable to live without Yoyo. That world is truly an enviable era.

With so many people, each person picked a dozen bunches, and all the ripe grapes in this acre of grape field were picked. Hua Muyu felt a little unsatisfied and asked: "Sister, besides grape wine, are there any other fruits that can be used to make wine?"

Yan Yiyi smiled and said: "Not all fruits can be found in this mountain. Have you heard of peach blossom wine?

It uses the freshest peach petals, and you have to choose fresh peach blossoms on the southeast branches shortly after the buds open around the Qingming Festival.

How many peach blossoms do I need to collect to make a bottle of wine like this?

Is there such a peach blossom valley on this mountain?

Moreover, it is already August. How many fruits in the south are in season at this time?

How many kinds of fruits can be found in this mountain?

So, you should be thankful that there are still grapes for you to eat, don't be too greedy."

Hua Muyu was not hit hard by this, but grinned and said, "Sister, I know where to find peach saplings. If you need them, I'll write a letter and have someone send them to you."

Yan Yiyi didn't really like brewing wine, she did it purely to pass the time. As for peach blossoms, she couldn't say whether she liked them or not. If she wanted to eat peaches, Aye's space could always produce big and sweet peaches, so there was no need to expand the business.

"Then you can cultivate the farm at home. I will go to see it if I have the chance in the future. I will write down the recipe for making peach blossom wine, and you can take care of it then, brother." As he spoke, Yan Yiyi looked at Hua Muchin, and happened to meet the gaze of Hua Muchin who turned around when he heard his name.

Hua Muchin nodded decisively: "Okay, just write down any recipe you have." Hua Muchin was eager to try it. This was the first of its kind, a rare item. Wouldn't money come rolling in?

It's such a pity that Yi'er doesn't go into business.

No, if Yier goes into business, who will inherit the family business?

Emm...As of now, the chances of Yier inheriting the family business are very slim.

Yan Yiyi moved more than a dozen grape seedlings into Hua Yiming's bamboo basket. After the grape picking was finished, everyone started to walk back. They did not return along the same route, but changed direction and continued walking to see if there were any other new discoveries.

When they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, Yan Yiyi discovered a large patch of lush green grass growing on a gentle slope. The leaves were oblong, with small serrations on the edges and sparse long hairs on both sides. His eyes lit up immediately and he exclaimed, "Lily grass!"

Xin Ye came to Yan Yiyi, but he was not in a hurry to squat down and pick fruits together. Instead, he looked down and said, "This place is about a mile away from the mountain road we took to go up the mountain. This place is opposite to the backyard of our new homestead. Wife, do you want to open a small door here when the time comes?

There is about half an acre of land here, and it is wild. If we want to eat it in the future, we can go up the mountain to pick it anytime. If there is too much, we can sell it in the store, so there will be no waste. "

"We'll decide next year whether to transplant the jelly grass. Now is the season for picking it. Please pick more. I'll make a refreshing jelly soup for everyone in the afternoon to relieve the heat."

Hua Muxin immediately smelled a business opportunity: "Yier, you said this is for making desserts?"

Yan Yiyi nodded: "Yes."

"I wonder if Sand City is suitable for planting?"

Yan Yiyi also didn’t know the climate of Shacheng, and told the truth: “I don’t know the climate of Shacheng, but Liangfencao has a warm and humid climate.”

Yan Yiyi swallowed back the words about the specific degrees.
