Chapter 84 Wild Vegetables

Mother-in-law Ding, mother-in-law Ding?!

What is Bobaoding? It is a dandelion and one of the representatives of wild vegetables.

Countless thoughts quickly ran through Li Zhongxin's mind. He thought, what was the least valuable thing in the 1980s? Wild vegetables.

After the natural disaster in 1960-3, people had almost no interest in wild vegetables.

In the 1980s, people had only one idea about wild vegetables. People who ate wild vegetables were the most tasteless people. They were the poor people living at the bottom. They would never eat them even if they had a mouthful of whole grains or some pickles.

That damn throat-harbing wild vegetable.

At this time, what people care most about is eating big fish and meat, and only big fish and meat are the best things.

For example, the cans Feng Xiaowu gave to Li Zhongxin's house before were a canned hawthorn and a canned horse-faced fish. Both of these items were good things in people's minds and were luxuries they could not afford at the time.

Many times, after decades of changes, what people thought was good at that time is almost something that no one likes or eats in later generations.

And the things that people disliked most at that time are often the things that people in later generations like the most.

There are many such examples. People in the 1980s liked to eat the thighs and breasts of chicken the most, because only those two parts had the most meat. Chicken feet and wings were the kind of things that people didn't like to eat.

Later generations of people just reversed this. People like to eat chicken feet, chicken wings, and even chicken heads and chicken necks that people did not eat in the 1980s.

The intestines in duck stomachs were used to feed dogs in the 1980s, but in later generations, duck intestines became a good thing.

Canned food was a favorite among people in the 1970s and 1980s. Li Zhongxin remembers it clearly. The canned products at that time were so good.

As soon as they heard about eating canned food, the children in the family were so happy.

This kind of item is not something that can be eaten every time you want. It is a luxury item that is only eaten when children or adults are sick with colds, fevers, and illnesses.

In the 1980s, Li Zhongxin remembered very clearly that when he was a child, when he had a cold and fever, he did not need to take injections and medicine like later generations. As long as he could buy him a canned fruit that he liked to eat, he would be sick immediately after eating it.

Get better.

Anyone who lived through the 1970s and 1980s should remember this statement. Although eating canned food can cure colds and fevers was just a statement at the time and had no scientific basis, it can definitely be improved by eating canned food.

In later generations, canned food has basically bid farewell to the common people's dining tables. Almost all people who eat canned products are poor. People regard canned food as a kind of junk food with little nutrition.

If you told people in the 1980s, no one would believe these things.

In the 1980s, wild vegetables were basically synonymous with weeds. Almost no one went to the fields to dig them, as if these wild vegetables were a kind of weed.

But this statement is not complete. At this time, people ate two kinds of wild vegetables that were sold for money, namely bracken and thorn sprouts.

Whenever bracken and thorn sprouts come down, people will go up the mountain to dig up bracken and thorn sprouts and sell them down the mountain, because people think that fried bracken and thorn sprouts are the same dish, and these two wild vegetables can also be pickled.

It is made into pickles and can be eaten until winter.

Almost all other wild vegetables are things that no one wants. Even if they see wild vegetables while passing by, people have no idea of ​​bending down to pick them.

Thinking of these, Li Zhongxin's thoughts gradually matured.

Li Zhongxin decided to establish several large-scale purchasing stations in Jiangcheng to purchase wild vegetables in a unified manner, and then asked Masako Mitsui to purchase production lines at RB and process these wild vegetables in China.

After processing, the taste of some wild vegetables such as bracken and thorn sprouts will not change, and the nutrients in them will be lost very little.

As long as you follow the standard procedures, there will be no problem at all in exporting these wild vegetables to RB. Although Li Zhongxin did not participate in the export of such a thing in later foreign trade, he still has a certain understanding of such a thing.

of.

In later generations, China's wild vegetables were exported at a very high price, even higher than ordinary items.

Like the Chinese, RB people love food very much. However, RB people pay more attention to health than the Chinese. They prefer to eat some natural wild plants. They feel that only such food is the best thing that nature has given to people.

.

Moreover, the nutritional value of wild vegetables is unmatched by ordinary vegetables. Since the 1970s, RB people have advocated raw fish dishes and nutritious wild vegetables.

However, there is really too little land in RB, and there are very few wild vegetables produced. Naturally, wild vegetables have become a good thing in the eyes of RB people.

There is no way to compare RB with China's vast land and abundant resources. It is a small place and almost all good materials need to be imported. Even wild vegetables need to be imported.

In 1983, it was the early 1980s. At this time, people in Northeast China simply dismissed wild vegetables, and few people even ate wild vegetables.

Speaking of people in the Northeast, the wild vegetables they eat the most are bracken, which was later found to produce carcinogens in RB.

Bracken, also called fist bracken, cat's claw, and faucet, likes to grow in sunny areas in shallow mountainous areas, and is mostly distributed in sparse coniferous and broad mixed forests. Its edible parts are unexpanded young leaf buds, and the processed bracken tastes fragrant.

Smooth, then mixed with seasonings, cool and refreshing.

This kind of bracken is very popular on RB people's dining tables, and it is indispensable in many expensive dishes.

As for this kind of bracken, in the 1980s, even in China, many people liked to eat it and preferred to pickle it.

Pickled food itself has some harmful effects on the human body, and with the addition of pickling, the harm to the human body is even greater.

Li Zhongxin decided to build a factory before wild vegetables came in large quantities in 1983. After building the factory, he began to purchase wild vegetables in large quantities.

At this time, wild vegetables were very worthless, and the purchase price was almost no cost. For example, a pound of fresh and high-quality bracken was only sold for a dime per pound before bracken was on the market in large quantities.

It has to be said that it is the best bracken. Otherwise, bracken would only cost three to five cents a pound.

If you purchase in remote mountainous areas, the people there will give you hundreds of kilograms a day, not to mention three cents and five cents, but one or two cents a pound.

Li Zhongxin remembers very clearly that in the 1980s, those wild vegetables were not recognized by people at all, let alone liked by people. Except during the natural disaster in 1960, people ate a lot of wild vegetables.
