A mouthful of fried rice at a sky-high price, Old Tang apprenticed on the spot

Chapter 328

The so-called pig blowing is to blow into the pig skin and inflate the pig.

This is done to blow up the wrinkled areas of the pigskin for easy shaving.

Blowing in Cantonese, which refers to being suffocated with anger but unable to vent, is derived from here.

There is a play called "The Butcher's Champion" in the Pingju Opera, and there is a line in the play: blowing the pig's legs vigorously, shaving the pig's hair quickly with quick hands and eyes, everyone in the world loves meat, but you can know who is upset and smells bad.

As sung in this play, in ancient times, those who could blow pigs were often strong men, and ordinary people did not have such a strong lung capacity.

But now it is a modern society, with the blessing of scientific tools, you don't have to use manpower to brag about pigs.

Li Yi asked the staff to buy a foot pump, which was specially used to blow air to pigs.

He stuffed the rubber tube into the broken skin of the pig's leg, clenched it tightly with his hand, and stepped on the pump with his foot. After a while, the pig's limbs stretched out and were blown up, as if it had become a pig. balloon.

Seeing this, Li Yi tied the pig's leg tightly, turned it over on its belly.

Later, he came to the cauldron, saw the boiling water in the pot, looked at the Northeast Six, and asked with a smile, "Teachers, who can shave pig hair?"

When several people heard the words, they all looked at Yang Shulin.

"Just me!"

Yang Shulin spread his hands: "I was the only one who scraped it! Then what's the matter?"

He dropped out of school at a young age, started learning suona at the age of nine, and performed weddings and weddings with his master.

Pigs have to be slaughtered for weddings and weddings. He has been watching since he was a child, and he has also done it when it is fun.

So, he came directly to Li Yi, and asked with a smile, "Why are you scratching?"

"You can just shave after I burn it."

Li Yi smiled and said something, then came to the cauldron, picked up the bucket on the side, and filled half a bucket of cold water into the pot.

The hot water used for scalding pig hair is generally around 80°C. Do not use boiling water at 100°C, as it will burn the pigskin.

After adding cold water into the pot, Li Yi stirred it with a ladle, and quickly touched the water temperature with his hand.

Feeling that the temperature was about the same, he turned around and came to the wooden frame, holding the Minzhu's front hoof with one hand, and the rear hoof with the other hand, exerting a sudden force, Minzhu was lifted up by him.

"Ouch!"

Seeing this scene, Yang Shulin couldn't help but exclaimed.

The people behind were also surprised and dumbfounded.

"This guy, why is he so strong?"

Wang Xiaoli looked at Li Yi in surprise, then at the pig in his hand, and exclaimed, "How much does this pig weigh? More than 160 kilograms? That's more than 80 kilograms! So it was lifted?"

Anyone who has carried a drunk brother knows that an unconscious person is really dead.

A beauty who can usually be hugged by a princess, once she passes out of drunkenness, an ordinary man really can't hug her.

If he wanted to lift more than 160 kilograms so easily, then he had to be able to lift at least 220 kilograms.

In the live broadcast room, seeing Li Yi easily pick up the dead pig, the audience also exclaimed.

"So fierce?"

"Why do I feel that this dead pig is heavier than Brother Yi? How did he pick it up so easily?"

"Damn it! My family kills pigs during the Chinese New Year. At least four people have to carry such a dead pig. Brother Yi can lift it up by himself?"

"Strengthening the mountain and the air is unparalleled!"

"I'm a bodybuilder. A deadlift of 120kg is nothing, but the barbell should be easier to hold. Dead pigs are not easy to use force. I guess the difficulty is about the same as a [-]kg deadlift!"

"I also exercise. I can deadlift 120 kilograms, but I can't lift a dead pig."

In front of the camera, Li Yi had already brought the dead pig to the cauldron.

Picking up the dead pig, he slowly put the dead pig into the pot and heated it up.

Although the water temperature is only about 80°C, in order not to scald the pigskin, it is still necessary to turn it over.

Li Yi grabbed the hind hoof and turned it over from time to time, so that every part of the dead pig could be evenly heated.

Soon, the dead pig was scalded.

Li Yi took the scraper and tried to shave the pig's leg.

After three or two cuts, the pig hair was scraped off along with the epidermis.

Seeing this, Li Yi grabbed the pig's trotter again, took it out, and put it on the plastic sheet that was spread beside him.

Seeing Li Yi put the dead pig away, Yang Shulin, who was already ready to put the pig in place, came forward with a scraper, and scraped quickly with his hands and feet.

To shave pig hair while it is hot, the skin and pig hair must be scraped off together during the period of time when the skin is scalded and softened.

When the temperature drops and the skin hardens again, it will not be easy to scrape, and you have to burn it again.

Seeing him get started, the other brothers were also embarrassed to stand up.

So, they all rolled up their sleeves, took the remaining two scrapers, and came forward to help scrape.

If there is no scraper, I found a broken brick from the corner of the wall, which can also be used as a scraper.

There are many people and strength is great. Six people shaved the dead pig clean and smooth.

Taking advantage of their shaving time, Li Yi, Wu Lei and Huang Xiaoming set up the welded steel pipe frame.

This is a simple gantry frame used to hang pigs. It will be used to hang pigs later and cut in half for easy division.

After they set up the gantry, the dead pigs over there were also scraped.

Li Yi took the knife and stepped forward to cut a hole in each of the pig's hind legs.

Then, holding the hind legs, the pig was lifted to the front of the dragon gate, and Wu Lei used the two iron hooks on the rack to pass between the tibia and fibula of the pig's hind legs, which is the most stressed part of the pig's legs. So it is safer to hang from here.

After Wu Lei had hung it firmly, Li Yi let go, took out a thin knife about one foot three inches from the knife box, and returned to the dragon gate.

Leaning down, he held the knife and stabbed the dead pig in the back of the neck.

The sharp blade seemed to have cut into a piece of tofu and pierced deeply.

Seeing this knife, everyone present took a breath in unison.

Wu Lei couldn't help complaining to Huang Xiaoming in a low voice: "No wonder they say you can't mess with the butcher, it's too cruel."

Li Yi heard his muttering, but he didn't pay attention, he just moved up along the pig's keel, until it reached the base of the tail.

Then, around the base of the tail and the anus, he stroked to the abdomen.

Along the abdomen from top to bottom, soon, the dead pig was disembowelled.

But the knife was not deep and did not cut through the inner layer.

Then, Li Yi's knife cut to the wound on the dead pig's neck.

He drew a circle around the dead pig's neck along the wound.

The next moment, Li Yi grabbed the pig's mouth, and with a slight force, the pig's head was removed by him.

Seeing this scene, although Wu Lei was a little scared, he still couldn't help admiring in a low voice: "Brother Yi's sword skills are really strong!"

This is not the voice of Wu Lei alone, and the people around are also full of admiration.

When Li Yi cut the knife, they only heard the rustling sound of the pork being separated by the sharp blade, but they didn't hear any sound of the blade colliding with the bone.

Seeing Li Yi casually put the pig's head on the clean plastic sheet beside him, Yang Shulin smiled and boasted: "In ancient times, there was Paoding Jie Niu, and now there is Li Yi Jie Pig!"
