Chapter 110 [Rice Seeds]
At the wild boar meat banquet that day, Dupu also drank two glasses of wine. He slept until dawn at night.
I got up and ran to Hassan's yurt for a unique breakfast.
Cheese and meat.
Hassan often makes raw cheese. Dupp has seen cheese made by Tauges.
Pour the fresh milk into the barrel, stir and extract the cream, place the pure milk in a heated place to ferment. When the fresh milk has a sour taste, pour it into a pot and cook it. When the yogurt becomes tofu shape, scoop it into gauze and squeeze it to remove moisture.
Then, put the milk residue into a mold or wooden plate, press it into shape, or cut it into squares with a knife, and the raw cheese is successfully made.
Then there is meat. Hassan's breakfast must include meat, hand-stewed lamb, meat patties, etc. It is very satisfying to eat it in garlic and vinegar, and it does not have the smell of mutton.
In the words of Taogers, Hassan and his son have to work a lot every day, and it would be difficult to maintain the whole morning if there was no meat for breakfast.
Today’s breakfast is a special dish of sheep blood sausage. She pours the sheep blood into the large intestine and then cooks it after layers of processing. Every Mongolian household likes it and can also cook it.
Dupp tried it once, although it has a very high nutritional value, it tastes average, and I look at it...
So he ate a bowl of fried rice like a crumb, served with cheese.
As for Hassan and his son’s favorite sheep blood sausage, they will not win over what they love.
After breakfast, he had a while at the door with Potter, the dog of Taogers, at the door. Li Lidong called in and said that his friend had specially sent the rice seeds he wanted.
Dupu immediately went to the staff dormitory, found Li Lidong, and drove Li Lidong to the entrance of the grassland to greet him.
Li Lidong introduced that his friend was his former subordinate, and he could be said to have brought it out by him. Later, he jumped several times and worked in a large agricultural enterprise group and often traveled on business trips.
This time, his friend happened to be attending an agricultural exhibition in Japan and was invited to buy three high-short and exquisite rice varieties from Japan, as well as wild rice seeds from the United States.
At around 11:20, a gray Mazda drove into the grassland gate.
Dupu and Li Lidong all came forward.
A man, three, four, five or six, got out of the car with a smile, first hugged and greeted Li Lidong, and Li Lidong introduced Dupu, "My old friend, old colleague, bangs."
Then the two cars returned to the office building in the grassland.
The man opened the trunk and took out three packaging boxes, "The rice seeds you want are all here."
"Thank you! Thank you so much, I want you to work hard." Du Guanzhi and Zhang Aihua prepared lunch and made a few hard dishes, silverfish soup, tinned fish, beef and mutton.
The three of them came to Li Lidong's office and sat down, making tea and cigarettes.
It can be seen that Biao Hai is a cheerful person, has done marketing work, and is very good at socializing.
He asked Li Lidong curiously, "Brother Li, what are you buying rice and Japanese rice seeds?"
He couldn't help but be curious. If he bought it and planted it himself, the amount would be too small and he could not plant dozens of acres of land; he bought it for experimental research? He heard from Li Lidong that Tanggulado had no laboratory or experimental fields yet.
"Plant yourself." Li Lidong replied.
Liu Hai stopped talking and said: "I am bluntly, the yield of glutinous rice is too low and the planting cost is high. Its rhizome, like many plants, is often affected by some diseases and pests, especially glutinous rice. During the growth of glutinous rice, if its stem is infected by glutinous rice, then this plant will not be able to produce glutinous rice..."
"We are just trying to plant. There is no plan for large-scale planting for the time being."
"Oh! This Japanese Yueguang rice and golden sprout rice are even harder to grow!" Liu Hai said directly, "Water's high-end rice cultivation is a labor-intensive agriculture with high labor intensity and requires a lot of labor to cultivate carefully. Field management is strict, and there are extremely high requirements for irrigation and agricultural canals."
Li Lidong looked at Dupu, and he didn't quite understand why Dupu bought high-end rice seeds. He had communicated with Dupu last time that any variety has specific climate and environmental conditions, altitude, rainfall, frost-free period, etc. It may be a bumper harvest in Mutun County, and there is no harvest in adjacent counties. Therefore, the seeds must be planted and approved before they are promoted to a certain place. A variety cannot be suitable for all places, let alone the introduction of foreign rice seeds!
"Why does our country have no world-renowned high-end rice?" Dupu asked the two.
Liu Haixiao, "Of course there are, the top ten high-end rice in the world, and my country is on the list of three varieties. The number one is the Oda Rouge Rice in my country, which is priced at 4,000 yuan per kilogram, and it is still unavailable."
Dup was surprised, "I really haven't heard of it."
Li Lidong said: "Now there are basically no such rice, and it seems that there is only one rice field that has species."
"Why didn't the planting continue?" Dupp asked again.
"Because the planting cost is high and the sale price is not available for large-scale promotion, the requirements for breeding, sowing and geographical environment are too strict."
"There are also types of Xiangshui tribute rice in my country that have also been on the list, ranking in the top ten, and obtained national geographical indication products. Not to mention the requirements for varieties and seed quality, just the local conditions, only some of the land in five townships in the local area meet the standards."
Li Lidong continued, "For example, the climatic conditions require a frost-free period of 125 to 135 days, the annual active effective temperature is 2300℃ to 2700℃, and the annual rainfall is 550 mm to 600 mm. There are also water sources, and the irrigation water uses Jingpo Lake water in the upper reaches of Mudanjiang and other clean and pollution-free water. Soil conditions, the soil type is mostly meadow silt, the soil layer is 20 c meters to 40 c meters, the organic matter content is 1.5% to 3%, and the pH value is between 6 and 7."
The bangs are very obscure, "Mr. Du, the cultivation of high-end rice is a specific product in a specific environment. No matter how developed the technology level is, it cannot change the climate, soil and water sources."
Dupu nodded, "I just want to try planting." He didn't consider promoting planting at all. It would be OK to plant hundreds of acres of rice fields in a small area of Tanggulado.
Liu Hai and Li Lidong looked at each other, feeling a little bit about playing the piano, so they changed the topic, "By the way, I brought a few bags of rice to Brother Li, and Mr. Du will try it together." He tore open a packaging box and took out several generations of rice in five kilograms.
Li Lidong is now only one threshold left to foodies. He grabbed a pack of rice, "I remember that year I ate it once, and it was really delicious. Unfortunately, I drank a little too much that day and didn't have a particularly deep impression."
"The rice with a natural grassy aroma is chewy. It can be cooked alone or mixed with rice to cook. In addition, the rice can also be used for seasoning. When making broth, add some rice to the soup and the soup will be more fragrant!"
Liu Hai introduced: "But rice is not like rice. It is washed with water and then cooked in an electric rice cooker! Before cooking rice, you need to soak the rice in water for about 3 hours, then put the rice in a bowl, add doubled water, and put it on the steamer and steam it in water for about an hour!"
