The Zhao family produces torreya, hardware is produced at the entrance of the store, socks are produced in the lobby, and pearls are produced in the lake at the foot of the mountain. There are also Xishi tofu, Zhuji rice cakes, bamboo shoots, and tea leaves, but stinky tofu is a specialty of Shaoxing. Torreya is a rare dried fruit unique to my country. It has a unique characteristic, that is, it takes three years to grow from flowering to fruiting. Mature, that is to say, the fruits of the previous year cannot be picked until this year, and the fruits of this year cannot be picked until the year after next. Three generations live together on the branches. Therefore, local torreya farmers call the torreya "three generations of fruit."
It is said that if the torreya produced every year were distributed equally to the whole world, each person would only get 1.5.
