Villager of Daming

Chapter 942 Recalling the past without regrets

Before the team from Xiaqiu Village reached the river, they saw a large group of people carrying poles back. On both sides of the poles were wooden barrels. The barrels contained a little water, and the rest were all small river shrimps.

The team turned and walked back. After all, it was not to see the shrimp pots by the river. The goal was achieved and they went back to deal with the shrimps.

Zhu Wentian took two poles, one on the left and one on the right. Without holding on to his hands, he just swayed along with the poles.

The other people carrying the pole were dumbfounded. After walking for a while, they were even more dumbfounded.

Several people pulled a wooden cart over. It was originally a cart used to harness animals. The animals were lent out to plow the fields after the wheat harvest, so the cart became empty.

Zhu Wentian pulled a cart by himself, with thousands of kilograms of barrels, water, and shrimps loaded on the cart's boards.

There are four large wooden barrels hung on each of the two front shafts of the car. The whole car weighs more than 1,500 kilograms, which is just right for front and rear counterweights.

The key wheel is made of wood, thick and heavy.

The cars in Xiaqiu Village have the same structure, but the body is lighter. The wheels are made of metal rims, bars and axles, with balls inside.

Zhu Wentian walked forward, not too slow! I have caught up to three-quarters of a cow. I never had enough to eat before, so I can only catch up to half a cow.

"Chang Zhu, are there no other villages in your village that dare to follow you to grab water?"

A local chief next to him looked at the brisk movements of the village guard from Xiaqiu Village pulling the cart and asked enviously.

"You are next to the Fen River, are you grabbing water upstream and downstream?" asked the village chief.

"How is that possible? Fenshui is so big, why bother grabbing it?"

"Beside Xiaqiu Village is Huangchi Water, which is also not small. It is connected to Danyang Lake upstream and the Yangtze River downstream. There are no water grabbers."

The chief replied, "What's the matter?" If the river in front of the village can run boats, should it be regarded as a small ditch? Whoever has the ability to block the river will cause a flood.

The chief showed regret: "What a pity!"

"Why, you want my Xiaqiu Village to fight with other villages? A life-and-death kind? So that Hanhan can take action to destroy other villages?" The village chief said what the other party was thinking.

"No, it's nothing like that. I just...well...I feel safe."

This one looks like you have to believe me and shakes your head vigorously, with... sincerity in his eyes?

It doesn't matter if you are good or not, most people will have the same idea after seeing Hanhan's strength.

However, the village no longer fights with other people. If anyone refuses to accept the offer, they will help him hunt. I believe that after a shot, the other party will accept the prey while holding it.

As soon as the team transporting shrimps from the river came back, the people who had finished their meals gathered around the big pots.

Part of the river shrimp is fried, and part is cooked in salt water and sun-dried. It is like shrimp skin in the sea. Salt must be added, and salt must be added as well. If not, it will spoil.

Someone cut leeks and mixed them with river shrimps, duck eggs, and goose eggs for stuffing. They ate pie for lunch. The goose and duck eggs were either pickled, made into preserved eggs, or used as stuffing.

I originally wanted to fry chrysanthemum or wild vegetables, but a large number of people left at that time. Now I have a look, the team is going to Ningwuguan in the north.

Ningwuguan is far away from here! Walk along the Fen River, don't go in a straight line, there are mountains blocking it.

After a forced march of four hundred miles and two days, we arrived at a place where we had a good rest.

If it doesn't work, just two and a half, or three days, try to speed up.

If there is a highway at this distance, even if it is a national highway or a provincial highway, it can be reached by driving in three hours.

Zhu Wentian shook his head thinking about it. There are not such good cars and roads. Waterways can be fought. There are steam engines, but nothing else is possible unless it snows heavily and the steam engines are transformed into snowmobiles. The princes stood in front of several large pots. People from Xiaqiu Village were responsible for mixing stuffing, frying and boiling shrimps. Others were not allowed to come forward because there was oil in the pot.

Beat and scramble the eggs first, then without taking them out, just throw the leeks and raw river shrimp in, add other seasonings and stir, taste the filling, it's pretty disgusting anyway.

There are minced garlic and minced ginger in it. When I smelled and tasted them raw, they were not good at all. Then I mixed them with five-spice powder and it was done.

The people next to me began to make the stuffing. The stuffing with three delicacies is suitable for cooking, but the stuffing cannot be stuffed with wheat ears, half ingots, and big-bellied ones, that is, the shape of the scallop meat with a skirt.

If it is wrapped into a complete ingot with the head and tail connected, it is a wonton, a big wonton, that is, the hand-chao, the hand-chao shape of the hand holding each other, the way of wrapping the big wonton in Zhu Wentian's time.

The skin of the meat swallow is different. The shape should be pinched out of the swallow's tail. It looks like a newly hatched swallow, pink and tender.

Small wontons are the real wontons, with very little filling and a large and thin skin. They are mainly eaten with soup, just like noodles, but with a little bit of meat inside to give them a taste.

Therefore, the wonton buns are the fastest and cooked the fastest. After making the skin, there is a lot of meat stuffing, so they are relatively slow, especially the meat wonton. The making of the skin takes time, or it can be said to be time-consuming.

The children in Xiaqiu Village do it themselves, are skilled in their movements, and have the ability to sell lunch boxes.

"The lunch boxes at Danqing Bento Restaurant are so delicious! In the past, only poor people went there to eat, but now that everyone is rich, they still want to eat there."

Zhu Xi watched a group of people operating there, and when he recalled the past, tears welled up in his eyes.

For him, Danqing Box Dinner Restaurant had nothing to do with eating. After getting in touch, Xiaqiu Village said something and stopped the promised marriage.

Isn’t it Wang Baobao? His father hoped to win him over, but now, what does Wang Baobao mean to him? The explosive pack exploded away with a loud bang.

"The apprentices at the lunch box restaurant have never learned the essence. The team in Xiaqiu Village occasionally makes box lunches, and those who eat the box lunches immediately know that it is them.

In fact, when cooking, the soup will be more soupy, which is convenient for soaking rice. Rice soaked in thick sauce will be fragrant!

When mixing pickle dumplings, wash or soak them in water first. This will make them salty and suitable for hard work.

But cooking for us is not like that, cooking for people in other places is another. Cooking in Xiaqiu Village has no fixed pattern.

Yes, soldiers are impermanent and water is impermanent. For example, this fried shrimp will be used to serve people with wine...eh? "

Zhu Di was stronger than others in some aspects. He analyzed the behavior of Xiaqiu Village and found that the situation had changed.

The freshly fried river shrimps are thrown into a powder grinder, which is a device that grinds peppercorns, aniseed, cloves, fennel, etc. into powder.

To use electricity, a steam engine generator is used to generate electricity over there, and an electric motor is used here.

Small river shrimps are beaten into powder, then mixed with sorghum rice and used to make popcorn sticks.

"His Royal Highness King Qin thought that he saw that some children in the county need calcium supplements, especially those who are new to complementary feeding.

Raw or fried whole shrimps tend to burn during the puffing process, leaving marks on the popcorn sticks.

Deep-fried and powdered, and then added in, it looks natural and not fishy at all, just like the fried shrimp crackers we have in the village.

We have brought shrimp crackers. Whenever His Highness wants to eat them, just tell them and they will be fried immediately. There are also shrimp crackers with a little yam powder and lotus root powder mixed in the shrimp crackers. "

The chief cannot let Zhu Di's words fall to the ground. He must pick up the words. It is polite and gives people a feeling of being valued.

　No more today. A small cut of half a centimeter long and about two millimeters deep was made on the front of the middle finger of the left hand where it touches the keyboard when typing. It was like taking blood from a finger. The farmer put a Band-Aid on it and the typing feel was different. Oh my God!
