Hello, 1983

Chapter 52 Stinky Mushroom? Matsutake?

In this kind of laughter and laughter, the dumb grandpa led the group to a miscellaneous forest, and gestured a few times in his hand, which meant that there are the most mountain goods here.

In fact, it doesn't need him to say, everyone also found a piece of mushrooms, that guy, it looks like someone planted it on purpose.

So they all put down their big backpacks, carried soil baskets, and started picking mushrooms.

That's right, pick it up.

Mushrooms are all over the place, but it's not just picking them up. You have to choose a good variety and good quality. Those who have just emerged, or those who have already played with maggots, are too lazy to do it at all.

Although it rains intermittently these days, inside the forest, there is a thick layer of humus, which is composed of annual dead branches and leaves, which is extremely water seepage.

When I stepped on it, it was not slippery at all, but felt soft, like stepping on a sponge.

This forest is a natural growth of miscellaneous forests, with a wide variety of trees, pine trees include larch, sylvestris pine, giant Korean pine and so on.

There are other deciduous trees, such as oak, ash, yellow glass, birch and black birch, elm and poplar, etc., dozens of varieties.

Because of this, the types of mushrooms are also very rich, because many fungi grow in different environments, which are closely related to tree species.

For example, the red pine umbrellas that everyone is collecting now only grows in the woodland of sylvestris, not in the larch.

This red pine umbrella is a precious natural pine mushroom with high nutritional value. Until later, it still cannot be artificially cultivated, so it is 100% pure and natural.

Liu Qingshan also learned later that because this mushroom is shaped like a rivet, it turns purple-red after blanching with water, so it has a domineering scientific name, called "Blood Red Rivet Mushroom".

It tastes fleshy and has enough aroma, so don't be scared by the name.

Liu Qingshan squatted on the ground and walked around slowly, picking up those sturdy red pine umbrellas, picking them up in the basket, and turning around, he could basically pick a dozen or even twenty.

Then move a few steps and continue to squat and circle to collect, not far from the side, there is the chatter of everyone.

"This mushroom head is really big, look at it, what does it look like?"

Listening to the sound, it seems to be a pole.

It is self-evident what the shape of an unopened red pine umbrella looks like.

There was a burst of laughter around him, all of them were men, of course they understood.

Then, the uncle's voice sounded: "Pole, that thing in your crotch is probably as big as this."

Liu Qingshan looked up and saw that the boss was holding a small red pine umbrella in his hand, about the size of a freshly knotted cucumber.

This kind of adult topic, he is a half-sized boy, of course it is not easy to get involved, let's just listen to those old drivers driving.

Sure enough, Zhang Ganzi is not to be provoked: "Oh, boss, you are not too sloppy, in broad daylight, take out your own stuff and show it off!"

In the roar of laughter, Zhang Ganzi became more enthusiastic: "No wonder your family is a nest of daughters. I only learned today that your stuff is not long enough."

Liu Qingshan couldn't help but want to be happy. To say that mushrooms are fungus, they look really impressive.

It's no wonder that people in the island country like to eat it. In their concept, mushrooms have won the essence of "form supplement".

I don't know, can Teacher Yang help you get in touch there?

While he was thinking about it, his finger suddenly touched a big sturdy mushroom head, Liu Qingshan couldn't help his eyes light up, and exclaimed subconsciously in his mouth:

"Matsutake!"

In front of him is a reddish-brown mushroom head. The umbrella has not been opened yet. A thick umbrella handle is exposed below, showing a milky white color. The surface of the umbrella handle is also covered with scales.

This scale is also the main feature of pine mushrooms, so the locals call pine mushrooms "skin mushrooms".

With this shout, he also attracted several people nearby, even the mute grandpa came over.

Seeing Liu Qingshan carefully picking up the dead branches and leaves around the pine mushrooms, the exposed umbrella handle is getting longer and longer, almost a bundle.

A bundle of adults is about twenty centimeters. The quality of the mushrooms in this forest is absolutely top-notch.

"Fuck, this thing is still wild. If the old ladies go into the mountains to pick mushrooms and can't hold back and want to go to the toilet, if they squat here..."

Zhang Ganzi's strange cry came from behind, obviously not a good word.

"Fuck you, you've been thinking about that all day long!"

The uncle scolded, and then leaned over to take a look: "Qingshan, this is a stinky mushroom, don't look at it big, it doesn't taste good at all."

You say matsutake is a stinky mushroom?

Liu Qingshan blinked, and then remembered that in the forest, there is indeed a fungus that is very similar to matsutake mushrooms, called flower matsutake mushrooms, and has a strange odor. Whether it is taste or taste, it is not comparable to matsutake mushrooms.

It is estimated that everyone has tasted the flower matsutake and felt that the taste is not good, so no one even cares about the real matsutake.

However, some inexperienced mountain rushers later pretended to be matsutake mushrooms and deceived laymen.

"Uncle boss, this is not a stinky mushroom. The color of the mushroom head is similar to the skin of pine nuts."

After thinking about it for a while, he added: "The smelly mushroom you mentioned has a darker head and a messy texture, so this one is called Matsutake, and that one is called Hua Matsutake, and the taste is different, don't you believe you smell it?"

He has already peeled off the dried pine needles around the pine mushrooms, and reached out carefully, preparing to take the pine mushrooms down.

It is best not to touch the parasitic roots under the matsutake mushrooms. After harvesting, bury all the pine needles and the like. Next time, remember the location, and you can continue to find the matsutake mushrooms here.

But someone was faster than him, and I saw a black slap, and slapped it violently, and a good big matsutake was directly smashed into pieces.

Looking at this bear boy with his mouth open and his head still shaking, Liu Qingshan was also speechless and could only reach out and pat his head.

"You, you, you slapped dozens of candies with one slap."

The uncle of the boss next to him heard the overtone: "Qingshan, is this thing so valuable?"

Liu Qingshan nodded: "Of course, you have to meet the right buyer."

Just like those mountain goods that I brought to the county last time, if they were placed on the counter on Hong Kong Island or the island country, they would immediately be worth a hundred times more.

However, in the purchasing station in the small county, the price of cabbage was finally asked to Liu Qingshan to give it to Principal Xu.

For mushrooms such as matsutake, of course, fresh products are the best and have the highest value.

However, with the current conditions of Liu Qingshan and others in Jiapigou, they can only choose to pickle them with salt. In this case, the price will directly shrink by more than half.

No way, the current conditions are still too backward.

After Liu Qingshan explained the difference between matsutake mushrooms and flower matsutake mushrooms, the people spread out again in a fan shape and moved forward slowly.

When encountering pine mushrooms again, everyone will carefully pick them according to the method described by Liu Qingshan, and try not to destroy the environment in which they live.

In addition to mushrooms, when encountering dead wood, everyone will carefully pick the black fungus on it.

When the sun is overcast, I can put it on the top of the kang at home, and I can still dry it.

"Wow, what a big tree chicken!"

I don't know who shouted, it happened to be not far from Liu Qingshan's side, and he also came up to see.

I saw a cluster of bright fungi growing on the side of an oak tree. The colors were very eye-catching. The front was orange and the back was milky white.

The scientific name of this thing is sulfur bacteria, and the common people call it tree chicken mushroom or tree chicken.

One is because the layers of bacteria are stacked on top of each other, similar to cockscombs; the other is because the taste is delicious like chicken, and it is the famous Surrey, hence the name.

A bunch of tree chickens filled almost a basket, and everyone was even more excited.

There is only Zhang Pangzi, who is a typical laborer who does not work hard. After picking two mushrooms, he looks up at the sky and rests for a while.

His backpack was the smallest, but it contained the fewest fungi.

"Pole, don't always look up at the sky, work hard!"

Captain Zhang couldn't even look down, and shouted.

Zhang Ganzi can really deal with it: "Who is looking at the sky, I am looking for a monkey head, hey, look, there is a big monkey head on the tree branch!"

The people nearby followed his fingers, and sure enough, on an oak tree, there was a mass of milky white things, hairy, like a white ape sticking out its head there.

This is the wild Hericium erinaceus, which is as famous as shark fins.

Zhang Zhan, who had accidentally hit and bumped into it, was also the first to rush over and climbed up with the big oak tree in his arms, but he slipped down before climbing to a height of one meter.

"Go aside, don't get in the way."

Zhang Dashuai took out a pair of foot sticks from the basket and tied it to his shoes.

This thing is a special tool for climbing trees, not to mention a small oak tree, even if it is a tens of meters high red pine, it still kicks its feet and climbs up to hit the pine tower.

The most dangerous part of mining mountains in the woods is breaking the pine tower.

The structure of this tie is also quite simple. It is an iron frame, which is inserted into the shoe on one side, but on the inner side, each has a sharp steel thorn.

When climbing a tree, the two feet turn upwards, and the steel thorns pierce along the bark, which plays a very good role in fixing.

I saw that Zhang Dashuai had tied his feet, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, his short body rushed up to the tree, nimbly outpaced the monkey, and with a few bangs, he climbed to the side of the tree branch where the monkey's head was growing, took out the tied The knife on the leg, carefully cut the monkey head off.

Liu Qingshan also leaned over to take a closer look. This monkey head is neither old nor tender. It looks just right, the size of the mouth of a sea bowl, and the down hair is fair in color, and has not aged or turned yellow at all.

When you put it under your nose, you can smell a delicious aroma, making Liu Qingshan feel refreshed.

Liu Qingshan couldn't help but praise: This forest is really a big treasure!

Zhang Dashuai was not busy unblocking his feet, but shouted excitedly: "Mom, this monkey head is a pair as long as it is long. Everyone is walking in front of him, there must be more!"

The group was about to spread out to look for it, but was stopped by the dumb grandfather, who made a gesture in his hand and told everyone not to pick it up.

Zhang Ganzi still remembered the grievances he had given to the black blind man, and he arranged it in his mouth: "Dumb, you are waiting for us to go back, so you can pick it up and sell it yourself, no wonder you save so much money!"

The dumb grandfather was not annoyed either, Hanhan still had a smile on his face, he shook his hand and continued to gesture: It turned out that he meant to let the remaining Hericium erinaceus continue to grow, and then reproduce naturally, so that in the future the Hericium erinaceus in the forest will continue to grow. , will not become extinct.

The elders of the mountain drive, when dealing with wild animals, never slaughter them, never kill their mother beasts, and never hurt their cubs. This is their criterion.

Even when dealing with these mountain treasures, they are all collected and released, in line with the ancestral motto of sustainable use.

Liu Qingshan couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the mute grandpa, expressing his inner admiration, because just now, he was also eager to take down another monkey head, and he didn't have the feeling of mute grandpa at all.

He felt that people like Grandpa Dumb were the real guardians of the mountains!
