Alpine Orchard - Chapter 308

[Chapter 308 The Durian Is Ripe]

The next day.

It was past eight o’clock.

Zhou Kang drove the car and brought a group of people to Gaoshanping.

As soon as he climbed to the top of the mountain, Li Xuebin shouted: “Brake your foot.”

Zhou Kang stepped on the brake quickly, looked at Li Xuebin, Li Xuebin smiled and pointed to the durian forest on the side of the road, and said, “Let me see if these durians are ripe. Got it.”

“Durian?” Boss Wei and the others looked over suspiciously.

Hey, there is a large area of not tall but very strong trees on the side of the road, with many durians hanging on the trunks.

The trunk height of these big trees seems to be about two meters.

There are big tree stumps with durians hanging on them. Durian stump, re-grafted on top of the stump. Grafted branches have upward growth to become the main trunk, and there are branches that grow sideways.

These durian trees were transplanted by Ye Mo with great effort. Ye Mo used Lingquan many times to saw the cuts in the trunks, and the same is true for the grafting joints.

Ye Mo must have used several tons of spiritual springs for these two-meter-high trunks to keep them alive and grow well. The most used is to water the roots of trees.

Up to now, the durian tree has grown bark at the saw cut.

These new branches are basically as thick as a child’s wrist. The new branches that grow upward are thicker and thicker.

There are 571 large durian trees here. 35 of them were completely transplanted, and only one stump was transplanted for the rest, and then re-grafted.

Durian basically grows on the trunk, that is, on the stump 2 meters above the ground.

Except for the 35 complete durian trees, the durians on the other durian trees can be picked by hand.

The tree is not tall, and there are not many durians on the trunk. There are three or five durians less, eight or nine more…

Seeing this miraculous durian grove, Boss Wei and the others also got out of the car and walked into the durian grove.

The distance between the durian trees and rows is very far, and the ground is flat grass or pruned, thick green turf. It is soft and very comfortable to step on.

“The orchard here is beautiful.” Li Xuebin said with a smile, sniffing the durians on the tree.

“It’s beautiful. I even mowed the orchard into a lawn…” Boss Nie smiled and said, “This lawn is too wasteful if you don’t play golf.”

“What kind of durian is this? The shape of the fruit is quite beautiful.” Boss Wang asked.

“Long handle.” Boss Luo said.

“There’s a scent around here.” Boss Wei looked at the shape of the fruit, and said, “It’s Qianyao, not a long handle   .

” It

stinks.”

“It should be in the front.”

Although the durian trees here have been sawn and re-grafted…they are only a little over a year old. But all durian trees are lush and beautiful.

Zhou Kang searched for the scent and came to the tree whose branches and leaves spread out for more than three meters. There are 6 durians on the trunk of this tree. Zhou Kang smelled the temperature one by one: “Lao Li, here…”

The durian trees here bloomed at the end of March, and the flowering period lasted until May. The first durians to bloom and bear fruit, but because of the low temperature at night, all the durians that formed fell.

Most of the durians on the tree are the last batch of fruits to bloom and bear fruit.

Ripe durians on the tree are easy to pick.

There is a fragrance, and the fragrance is relatively strong, indicating that the durian has matured.

Li Xuebin took out a knife and took the durian off. There are two mature durians on this tree, all of which have been picked.

Boss Nie looked at Boss Wei, who was sniffing hard, with disgust on his face: “Honestly speaking, this durian smells really good to you?”

” It smells   good.” Boss Wei said with a smile of enjoyment, “Does it smell really bad?” It smells like metal rust.”

“Fuck you. This durian is obviously very fragrant…” Boss Wei took a durian and sniffed the smell: “The fruit shape of this durian is not plump enough, and the yield rate of Ganyao durian is high. There are few names, open it and have a look.”

The long-stalked durian on Ye Mo’s side, the thorns on the durian skin are very sharp and hard.

Several people squatted on the ground and carefully opened the durian, and the smell permeated in an instant.

Boss Nie smelled the smell, but it didn’t mean he couldn’t bear it. Anyway, it smells very uncomfortable.

Zhou Kang also smelled the smell, and his reaction was not as strong as that of Boss Nie.

Li Xuebin also doesn’t like the smell of durian, but it’s just that he doesn’t like it.

Boss Wang thinks it smells delicious…

Boss Luo thinks it tastes good, and can’t help but want to take a few more sips.

Boss Wei really likes this scent. He likes to eat durian very much, not only he likes it, but his family likes it even more… Every year, he and his family will fly to Malaysia specially to eat the mature Musang King on the local tree. Taste some small varieties of rare durians…

the difference between long-stem durians and Ganyao durians is quite obvious.

In terms of appearance, durians with long stalks should be rounder, and the long stalks of good fruit shape are like “hearts”. After the fruit is ripe, the outer skin is grayish…

and the Ganyao durian, the fruit is oval and elongated, with a chin, that is, the tip of the buttocks protrudes.

The biggest difference between the two is the pulp. The flesh of the long stalk is white, and the flesh of Ganyao is golden…

When the durian is opened and the flesh is seen, it confirms Boss Wei’s judgment that it is indeed Ganyao durian.

The durian that was opened is ripe, the flesh is golden yellow, and the surface of the flesh looks oily and reflective.

“Musang King?” Taking a closer look at the durian, Boss Wei was a little puzzled. The flesh was wrinkled, shiny, and rich in fragrance: “This flesh looks a bit like Musang King.”

The Ganyao durian is a grafted product of Musang King. , has the title of Kitten Mountain King.

The durians in Ye Mo’s place are not too big, basically only four to five catties each. The peel is a little thicker, but the pulp inside is indeed beautiful…

Boss Wei started directly, took a piece of pulp, and tasted it. The flesh is golden yellow, the taste is sweet and glutinous, and the fragrance is strong… the smell of durian is particularly strong. Compared with the Ganyao durian in Thailand, the taste is much heavier. Even compared to Musang King, the fragrance is stronger.

The flesh has a creamy texture and a very strong aroma. The first taste is very sweet, but there is a slight bitterness in the sweetness, which is almost imperceptible. After eating, the mouth is filled with the fragrance of durian, and the sweetness is lingering.

Boss Wei’s eyes lit up, these durians are top quality. Tastes better than the mature Musang King on a tree in Malaysia.

There is also a fly in the ointment. This durian has a thick skin and a large core, and relatively speaking, the pulp is relatively small.

But the taste is too good.

Boss Wei likes durian very much, and since he is in the fruit business, he naturally knows the quality of durian.

However, because it is too high, the durian here in Ye Mo is not suitable for everyone. Even most of them are not used to these durians.
