2020 early summer, a friend by the Dendrobium Valley Sun was invited to let me accompany the same way, the first night we went to the Dendrobium Valley is located in the county of Anlong, the hotel near the lotus pool is a scenic spot Zhaoti, ten miles of lotus pools, it should be quite spectacular, but unfortunately, to where it is already the evening moment, and did not come to the time of the lotus flowers in full bloom, otherwise it must be very beautiful.
Night, check out some information on Anlong, Anlong in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, belonging to the ancient state of Yelang. Located in the southwest of Guizhou Province, in the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to Guangxi hilly transition section, the entire terrain from northwest to southeast gradually lower, the terrain is a multi-step step by step down to the Nanpanjiang River Valley. The central part is relatively flat. The highest point in the territory is Longtou Dashan in Longshan Township in the north, with the main peak Gonglong Mountain at an altitude of 1966.4 meters. The lowest point is where the Zhigang River joins the Nanpan River in the southern Po foot township, with an elevation of 407 meters. There are mainly Buyi, Miao, Tujia, Dong, Yi, Gelao, Shui and other minorities living in Anlong County. Guizhou Dendrobium Valley is located in Jiutou Mountain, Nanpanjiang River, Anlong County, Qianxinan Prefecture, which was built in 2013. Located in the Nanpanjiang River Valley, with an altitude of 440-1100 meters, it belongs to the South Subtropical Monsoon Air Zone, with high forest coverage, high air humidity and beautiful ecological environment.
Early the next morning, the east just white, we set off, the night low temperature condensation of dew is still hanging in the branches, a layer of mist in the depression like a long sleeve of water in the dance. Driving down from the national highway, the road began to narrow, after entering the mountain village, one side of the steep cliffs, one side of the dilapidated old houses, the mountain road winding, handsome and dangerous steep, so that the first time to try mountain driving I could not help but break out in a cold sweat. To the base, waiting for us Sun told us that today we can see the sea of clouds, let us hurry with him to drive to the top of the mountain, this is a particularly attractive news to me, without hesitation to follow the car to the top of the mountain, the pan of the mountain again let me realize the thrill and excitement of the eighteen curves of the mountain road, and finally to the top of the mountain, is not a big platform, park two cars, plus a group of six people, almost full, good thing there are a few trees on the side The first thing you need to do is to get a good look at the car, and you'll be able to see it.
Looking around, the fog between the distant mountain passes is tumbling to us here rushing, low villages, forests, slopes, gradually shrouded in mist, less than five minutes, we have been in the sea of tossing clouds, as if jumping out of the five realms, came to the yaoji on.
"The sun came out", with the companion of a scream, the clouds and sky intersection, the red sun as the Taishang Laojun alchemy furnace in an elixir, it seems to be from the tumbling clouds and mist to leap up, from red bright to to the white light a **** is about 2 minutes, the most beautiful is always short-lived, and at this time, we are at the foot of the The clouds are nourishing this dendrobium forest. Mr. Sun at this moment also began to recount to us his arduous entrepreneurial history.
Ten years ago, he returned to his hometown after being discharged from the army, although he has deep feelings for the land where he was born and raised, but he saw that the mountain people in his village are still struggling on the poverty line, and his heart is not good, as the saying goes, "live off the mountain, live off the water", Guizhou is one of the four major medical treasures in China, and the typical karst landscape of Qianxinan gives us a good opportunity to develop our own medicine, which is very important to us. The typical karst landscape of Qianxinan gives this land the unique advantage of traditional Chinese medicine resources, the first of the Nine Immortal Herbs, "Dendrobium" in Anlong this side is also recorded and discovered. So Mr. Sun made full use of his contacts in the army, found the relevant experts to the field for investigation and demonstration, after unremitting efforts, and finally came to the conclusion that "can be implemented in Anlong Dendrobium imitation wild planting".
And to really implement the dendrobium planting in Anlong, the only advantage is the whole piece of forest, roads, base facilities, water, electricity, organize the forest ....... These are huge difficulties, and to be large-scale will have to invest a lot of money, everything is difficult to start, Sun with a passion for the native land, with his folks that blood is thicker than water feelings, his life savings are invested in this forest, while opening the mountain to repair the road, set up camp, while running around in the various departments in charge of the first year the procedures are perfected, the base was built, the second year began to organize the woods, and began to domesticate the dendrobium, the first year, the second year, the first year, the second year, the second year, the second year, the second year, the second year, the second year. Organize the woods, while starting to domesticate, breeding wild dendrobium, gradually transplanted to the tree, the third year, these imitation wild tree dendrobium blossomed, but also grew long branches, which is the hope, just as the sunrise, so that Mr. Sun and the people in the mountains to see the future. After another three years, the scale expanded from a small depression to several large mountains, an area of more than 5,000 acres, the entire village of labor employment has been resolved, but also to train a number of business backbone, technical, sales, management, mountain people in the dilapidated old house on the side of the new building, everyone's face is full of happiness.
At this time the mountain floated under the melodious singing, Mr. Sun said that this is the flower picking mountain people in the song it, the clouds are gradually dispersing, we also seek the sound of the downhill, the car to the mid-levels, look at the surrounding woods, each tree with dendrobiums, branch buds according to the age of the growth of different, there is a green, there is a green, there is a brown, there is brown, there is a long, there is a short, the same is the tree of the yellow flowers, the sunlight from the lush foliage gap in the diagonal insertion down!
Closer look, dendrobium use rope tied to the tree, dendrobium root attached to the bark of the tree, rely on the nutrients drawn from the tree to grow, a clump of dendrobium branches are generally in a dozen to twenty or so ranging from a few centimeters to more than thirty centimeters in length, we see the adult dendrobium, five generations of the same clump, one generation of Longcao, two generations of Tiepi, the third generation of the black knots, the fourth generation of the white strips, and five generations of the Qingxuan.
The mountain people wearing Buyei blue flowered cloth clothes, head is black cloth or white cloth twisted into a big round hat, carrying a basket, set up a ladder, busy with scissors will be a blooming small flowers off, the joy of harvesting along with the song resonates throughout the valley, bowed down the back of the basket of the mountain people back up their happy life.
Manganese forest original flavor, natural color show itself strange. The ancient trees and dendrobiums are in the sky, and the love is boundless.
Plucked branches and buds waving fierce strength, time reads the second to be away from the winter. The spring bloomed ten thousand buds of colorful flowers, half empty curtains laugh at my obsession.
Back to the base of Dendrobium Valley, Mr. Sun gave us a detailed introduction of his dendrobium: "Dendrobium has the efficacy of promoting digestion, protecting the voice and brightening the eyes, enhancing immunity, lowering the three pressures, anti-aging, protecting the liver and gallbladder, inhibiting tumors, preventing radiation, nourishing the skin, and preventing diabetes." The name Dendrobium uses the ancient units of measurement "Shi" and "Dendrobium". "Stone, mountain stone, all stone genus are from stone; Dendrobium, ten buckets also, ten buckets for a stone, one hundred and twenty pounds." Both are measuring instruments, the two words together should be: such as the weight of the stone, such as the dendrobium of the capacity of the ancient healers of the value of dendrobium certainly, but also explains the status of dendrobium medicinal, so it is also known as the immortal grass. The dendrobium products of Dendrobium Valley in Guizhou have been certified organic, and also obtained the national geographical indication protection products.
While listening to Mr. Sun's introduction, we tasted the dendrobium flower tea made by the staff, the tea soup is yellowish, clear and bright, a fragrance, refreshing, drink a mouthful, slightly sweet, dendrobium flower tea has yin nourishing and clearing up the heat, benefit the stomach to produce fluids and brighten up the role of eyesight, soaking light dendrobium flowers can be chewed up and eaten, and the dendrobium flower scrambled egg is said to be very tasty.
Squeeze dendrobium juice, is the dendrobium branches with a juicer into fresh juice to drink directly, shallow drink on a mouthful of fresh, back to the sweet, mellow feeling suddenly feel refreshed, dendrobium branches according to the different years of growth, the price from a few hundred dollars a catty to thousands of dollars a catty, dendrobium branches processed finished product is called "maple dipper", because of the medicinal value of the dendrobium, the dendrobium is also a good choice for the treatment of the stomach. Due to the high medicinal value of dendrobium, coupled with the growth cycle and other factors, the price of the finished dendrobium is even more expensive, drinking a cup full of dendrobium juice is a luxury ah, and when you leave the rest of the take away, really can not afford to give up ah!
Dendrobium derivatives are many, such as dendrobium slices, dendrobium powder, dendrobium wine and so on. Dendrobium is rich in polysaccharides and dozens of trace elements, long-term drinking is good for all aspects of the body, we are in the era of epidemic, it seems that we really need these high-quality products to improve their own immunity, tamping our health foundation.
Leaving Dendrobium Valley, it is already noon, the sky is clear, the temperature has risen to nearly 30 degrees, this temperature is suitable for the natural drying conditions of flowers, I wish Dendrobium Valley to get out of the mountains as soon as possible, so that a larger market to bring life to this mountain village, and I wish that Dendrobium Valley in the countryside revitalization of the road more and more smoothly!
