Going through ancient farming to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 299 Chapter 301 Preparation
Yun'am looked at her cheerfully, "Xiaoqing, I want to marinate more meat and bury less in snowdrifts."

Yao Xiaoqing thought for a while and said: "Cut the wild pork into pieces, marinate it and fry it to make deep-fried meat, store it in the tank and eat it slowly, and make the rest into jerky. The liver is marinated and dried, and the bones are dried." , Buried in snowdrifts and stewed for soup."

Yun Amu nodded, "Okay, fortunately, I have enough material for this year."

"You go and help separate out the internal organs, and I'll grind aniseed ingredients to make five-spice powder." Yao Xiaoqing smiled.

Yun'am nodded, and called Ah Yu and the others to go out.

Yao Xiaoqing fried star anise, grass fruit, Chinese prickly ash and other big ingredients and took them to the stone mill to start grinding.

Yunmu and Ayu shoveled the snow into a cauldron to heat it up, and washed their stomachs with hot water.

Leopard Amu took people to the warehouse to drag baskets, and packed the belly, intestines, suet, meat and bones that Achong and the others had stripped out separately into the baskets.

Jiang Li, Mu Feng and the others chased to the mountain and captured two bison, a dozen wild boars and some musk deer.Everyone chopped sticks and vines, and happily carried wild animals down the mountain.

I saw a crowd of people at the entrance of the cafeteria, and a group of people were busy as if they didn't feel cold at all.

Yao Xiaoqing mixed the ground aniseed ingredients with salt and a small amount of sugar into the cut meat to marinate.Bring the suet that Yun Amu and the others have cut into the kitchen.

Ah Yu added some firewood to the stove, lit the pine needles with a torch and put them into the stove, and the fire started.After the two refined the oil, the meat was almost marinated.

Yao Xiaoqing poured a spoonful of rapeseed oil into the pan, poured the marinated wild pork into the pan and fried it in cold oil.Slowly, the scent of aniseed ingredients spread out, and bursts of scent came out, making the mouth water.

Ah Yu sniffed, "Xiaoqing smells so good!"

"The reason for the large ingredients in the meat."

Yao Xiaoqing kept stirring with a spatula to prevent the pork from sticking to the pan, until the meat in the pan turned golden brown, took it out with a colander and put it into a half-sized vat, and poured the oil in the pan to pour it over. on top until the oil coats the meat.

After frying more than ten cylinders of fried meat in a row, the pork belly was fried.They began to blanch the cleaned wild animal viscera again. Some of the blanched viscera were marinated, and some were put into bamboo baskets and carried outside. After they were frozen, they could pry them out if they wanted to eat them.

It was getting dark, and the snow was getting bigger and bigger, and it was impossible to work outside, so everyone had to drag the wild animals into the cafeteria to continue.

Yao Xiaoqing climbed to the top of the building, watched the gray and black clouds in the west getting thicker and thicker, and sighed, "It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a disaster that can't be avoided. What should come will always come."

Jiang Li also came upstairs at some point, "Is it a volcanic eruption or an earthquake?"

Yao Xiaoqing pointed to the sky, "Look, the clouds in the west have turned gray-black. I have been here for so long, and I have never seen such a color of clouds in the sky.

I'm worried that the weather will be getting colder and it will be for a while.We have to cut down more trees and burn charcoal to keep out the cold while we can still walk up the mountain. "

Seeing her sad face, Jiang Li smiled and comforted her and said, "There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, and the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Don't worry, you will always find a way."

Yao Xiaoqing said quietly: "I also hope that I guess wrong."

Jiang Li looked at her with distress, and said softly, "There's me too! If it doesn't work, I'll take people into the mountains to hunt. It's windy upstairs, so you go downstairs, tomorrow I'll take people up the mountain to cut trees and come back tomorrow to prepare the firewood. adequate."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Yes! I'll talk to my father. There are also Shishan and the tribes in the south. I have to remind them too."

Jiang Li nodded, "We need to remind them, they will run out of food when they can, so come and find relief!"

The two went downstairs together, Jiang Li went into the cafeteria to help dismantle the bones and chop the meat, Yao Xiaoqing went to the refining room and told Yaohu her worries.

Dashi and Shan's eyes widened after hearing this, "Xiaoqing, do you mean that this year will be colder than the year before?"

"Yes!" Yao Xiaoqing nodded.

Yaohu believed in her words, and patted her on the shoulder, "Let them do what you think should be done, Father will listen to you."

The two also nodded in agreement, "Yes, Xiaoqing, whatever you think can be done well, let's do it."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, seeing Yaohu frowning, he comforted him and said, "Don't worry too much, maybe I guessed wrong!"

Yaohu looked at his daughter distressedly, "Father is incompetent, and makes you worry every time something happens."

Yao Xiaoqing raised her head and looked at him sullenly, "Who made your daughter so capable!"

Several people looked at her and laughed, "That's right! Xiaoqing is the most capable witch in this area."

Yao Xiaoqing's face turned red, "Okay! The food in the cafeteria is also ready, let's go back to eat night food together, it will be delicious tonight."

Thinking of the wild animals caught today, the three of them also nodded happily, "Okay, let's eat something delicious."

When they arrived at the cafeteria, Yao Xiaoqing called Ah Hei and the others to the cafeteria, told everyone what she was worried about, and said, "From today onwards, we will have two meals a day. Except for the warriors on patrol, everyone can only eat five cents." full."

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes, Qingwu."

When we got up early the next morning, we found that there was thick snow on the roof and open space.

The wolf and the spear led the men to shovel the snow away, and Muba and the leopard went to the roof to sweep the snow off.Jiang Li, Mu Feng and the others drank soy milk and went up the mountain with bean dregs cakes.

Dashu and Quan went to the small tribe in the south, telling them that it might be getting colder and colder, and asked them to cut down more trees.

According to Yao Xiaoqing's instructions, he told them how to make animal offal and how to make charcoal, and reminded them to eat sparingly.

The deer and the others felt chilled after hearing this, and after a moment of stupefaction, they all agreed, and asked the woman to dig out the discarded animal internal organs from the snowdrift, and the man went up the mountain to cut trees.

Jiang Li took Mu Feng and the others up the mountain, looking for those small trees with thick arms to cut down, dragged them back to the tribe, and piled them in the emptied cattle pens and pig pens.A Chong Bo and Yu and the others cut down the tree and put it into the kiln to burn charcoal. They didn't stop until the pens were full.

As expected, the weather was getting colder and colder. In the past, there was no need to wear animal skins in the house while the fire wall was burning, but now I had to wear them so as not to feel cold.

Agen and Achun, the old uncles of their breeding team, burned charcoal fires in the chicken shed and duck shed, but in the end, many chickens and ducks were frozen to death, and the two were so heartbroken that they even shed tears.

Yun Amu comforted the two, "Save the eggs! Let's hatch chickens and ducklings again when the weather is warmer."

A Gen nodded, "Chickens and ducks don't lay eggs very much in cold weather, so you must keep the eggs."

Yun Amu nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, the breeding eggs must be kept."
