Autumn cucumber of Pan Liuyuzhuang

Pan Liuyuzhuang's autumn cucumber as the saying goes: "One side of the soil and water raises one side." At the southern foot of Langshan Mountain in Xiaojian Town, there is an east-west three-surname village-Pan Liu Yu Zhuang. Although the village is small, it is famous for hundreds of miles in Fiona Fang, because it is rich in autumn cucumbers. Pan Liu's cucumber in autumn is characterized by its big size and delicious taste. Most of them weigh more than half a catty, and the largest one can weigh more than 2 jins, about 40 cm long, with thin skin, thin seeds and thick meat, which is crisp, sweet and refreshing to eat; It has the functions of clearing heat, invigorating stomach, diuresis, refreshing and helping digestion, and has always been regarded as a good product at banquets. There used to be a folk song: "Pan Liuyu's cucumber, Dangshan's pear, and Bao Beach's radish drive south." Pan Liuyu's cucumber is the best in 18 mu of land at the southern foot of Langshan Mountain, followed by others, with an yield of more than 1000 kg per mu. In the past, every early autumn season, other melons basically ended, and the fruits were not yet mature, so Pan Liuyu's cucumber was listed, so it was called the "melon king" in early autumn. At this time, in addition to the county, merchants from Huainan, Huaibei, Suzhou, Bengbu and Guoyang competed to buy and exported to Kaifeng, Nanjing and Yangzhou. The annual sales volume has reached over 200,000 Jin. According to legend, Pan Liuyu's autumn cucumber has been famous for more than a thousand years. Although its seeds are spread to other places, the quality of the cucumber grown by Pan Liuyu is far less than that of Pan Liuyu's cucumber.
