back to the turbulent age

Chapter 34, Peanut Flour is also a Treasure (Please follow up!!)

Zhao Chuanliang took the food stamps and bought a white flour steamed bun, a corn flour steamed bun, and a spoonful of Chinese cabbage.

Paid for money and tickets.

Then several people returned to the class.

"Come on, one piece per person!"

Liu Wei mysteriously gave a few people a small piece of fish from the lunch box.

Salted fish.

Very small, only the thickness of a thumb.

The few people were not polite, and happily took it.

Tian Rudong said with a smile beside him: "I also brought some salted fish, I will eat it tomorrow!"

Sun Feng took a bite of the salted fish.

Then he said enviously: "It's better for you to be close to the Yongding River, where you can still get fish. Liangzi and I are close to the mountainous area, and we can't even get it."

Then he said with a smile: "But I brought soy sauce, everyone take turns to eat!"

Several people agreed with a smile.

Zhao Chuanliang also took a bite of the salted fish with a smile.

Very salty, but go with rice.

In this way, it can be killed in one bite, but everyone eats it very delicately.

Except for a very few who have a way, it is estimated that this salted fish is the only meat in the class.

Because those in the city are not close to the river, they can't even get fish, and if they get any, they eat at home, and they basically don't bring fish to school.

There are only a few rural children who can still go to junior high school, which is the hope of the family.

Otherwise, you won't be allowed to bring things to school.

Everyone was eating and chatting there.

When he heard that Zhao Chuanliang was going to the city, Liu Wei looked around and asked in a low voice, "The city is so chaotic, why don't you go anyway! Don't let anything happen to you. You won't even be able to pass the technical secondary school examination."

Hearing this, Zhao Chuanliang smiled: "It's okay! If this trip goes well, I'll bring you some delicious food when I get back."

After hearing the words, several people stopped persuading them.

They are all adults, and there must be things to take risks.

"Then do you have proof? It would be better if you have proof!"

Sun Feng asked from the side.

"Well, there is!"

In the past few years, I have often gone out, so how could there be no proof, and I still issued a certificate of defecting to my relatives.

It was also the Captain Ninth Grandpa who took the risk to prescribe it for him.

After all, they have no relatives in the city.

As for engraving the official seal privately, he still dare not do such a thing. If he is caught, his life will basically be over.

This is not the same as selling things.

But now that there is space, that's another matter, you have to search for it.

In fact, whether to go to the city or not, his desire is not particularly deep, the main reason is that there is too little food in his hand, and he always feels uneasy in his heart.

Smallholder thinking.

Ripe a batch as soon as possible, so that the family can eat with peace of mind, at least half full.

There is no rush in the afternoon, there are buses to the city from the county seat.

There are three shifts a day, and it takes just over an hour to arrive.

It's dangerous to go too early now.

After eating, he took a break at noon before going to work. Everyone in the dormitory went back, and he also found an excuse to run out.

Find a hidden place and quietly enter the space.

After entering, he began to look at the things in this space.

It has been more than 2 days since the last batch of ripened grain, and it took nearly a month to calculate, and the seedlings have grown quite tall.

There is still a week or so until the next batch is ripe.

The batch of chicks I bought before have all shed their fluff at this moment, and they haven't grown up yet.

The three little pigs grow quite fast.

The wild boar has food, eats and sleeps, sleeps and eats, and has gained about twenty or thirty catties in the past two or three days.

In the middle of the night plus this morning, twelve hours have passed.

Each pheasant laid another 6 eggs, plus the previous 8, exactly 20 eggs.

This thing is a good thing!
Looking at the grains that had been dried long ago on the ground, they were all thrown into the storage room.

Leave some peanuts for seeds.

He took out ten catties of peanuts, and as he thought about it, the peanuts turned into peanut noodles.

Fire fried peanuts.

After a while, a scent came.

After the peanuts were fried, according to his thoughts, the peanut powder was compressed into a peanut cake, and the peanut oil dripped into the black pottery bowl next to it.

Ten catties of peanuts yield about four catties of peanut oil.

The oil is somewhat dark yellow and cloudy.

After making it, look at the peanut cakes that are compressed together.

Following his thoughts, the peanut cake was fried and turned into powder, and a little bit of salt was also turned into powder.

At this time, the salt is only coarse salt, not fine salt.

After stirring well, taste it.

A bit mushy, but very fragrant.

After finishing it, put some peanut oil in a casserole, took 4 wild eggs, and fried a green pepper egg, to be exact, a red pepper egg.

He took out the wolf meat shredded pork noodles that had been placed in the space before.

began to eat.

How can I be full at noon?

A large bowl of noodles was eaten up, and the eggs were also dried up.

Only then did he hiccup comfortably.

After drinking some water and resting for a while, he left the space and walked towards the school.

A small cloth bag, which was used to hold seeds before, now contains about a catty of peanut powder.

Back in the dormitory, Li Lei and Wen Yugui also came back.

After entering, he closed the door and put the peanut powder on the table.

He smiled and said, "Come, eat delicious food."

food?

When they heard this, they rolled over from the bed.

At this time, there is nothing more attractive than food, not even beautiful women.

"what?"

Liu Wei asked with a smile.

Then he opened the cloth bag and looked at the contents in confusion: "Fried noodles? No, it smells like peanuts."

Pick up a little bit with your hands and put it in your mouth.

The feeling of sticky mouth and the aroma of peanuts stimulated his taste buds.

"Well, peanut powder! Good stuff!"

Seeing this, the others hurriedly grabbed some and ate there enjoying themselves.

"Well, it's really peanut powder. It smells so good. Where did you get it?"

……

Zhao Chuanliang said with a smile: "It doesn't matter where it came from, let's eat something first."

Several people took spoons one after another, and each scooped up a spoonful.

Enjoy it there.

You must know that peanuts also contain protein, which can reduce the swelling of the human body.

But everyone just took a spoonful and stopped.

Seeing this, Zhao Chuanliang smiled, and put away the food without persuading him. This should be eaten slowly, just a little a day.

This is also the rule.

Li Lei licked the spoon, and after licking the top clean, he smiled and said, "This is much tastier than bean cakes."

You can also eat soybean cakes pressed from oil, which were used to feed livestock in the past.

And now baby too.

The taste is very bad, and it is also mixed with compressed straw particles.

"Well, this is the same as bean cake. It is left over from oil extraction, but it is ground into powder, and the taste is slightly better."

Zhao Chuanliang explained a little bit.

Several people nodded when they heard the words.

Putting the spoon back with a lot of enthusiasm, everyone lay back on the bed. Although they had just eaten, they couldn't just consume it like this.

After squinting in the dormitory for a while, everyone returned to the class.

Many people just woke up with marks on their faces.

A few people even shed halazi.

After waiting for a while, seeing that the time was up, everyone took baskets and went to the playground, where all the Chinese cabbages were placed.

Everyone began to peel off the green vegetable leaves that were open on the outside in an orderly manner, exposing the tight white part inside.

This is good for storage.

The peeled vegetable leaves should naturally be neatly stacked and sent to the cafeteria, where they will be so overcast that they will be used to make sauerkraut.

Otherwise, so many peeled vegetable leaves will be wasted if it is too late to eat.

The entire playground is full of Chinese cabbage, the workload is not very big, the cabbage is big, five or six catties a piece, on average, there are only 25 cabbages per person, less than 30 cabbages.

It will be busy in less than an hour.

After finishing, they concentrated on plowing the fields to prepare for the planting of autumn potatoes.

This is what men do.

The female classmate went to cut the germinated potatoes into small pieces according to the eyes of the sprouts, and wrapped the wounds with plant ash.

Save it for planting tomorrow.

And the girl also has a task. Around the afternoon, she has to turn over the Chinese cabbage to prevent it from rotting.

At least the outside should be air dry.

Digging the ground was not so easy. Thirty or so boys were divided into half and rest alternately. After all, the body couldn't bear it.

At this time, the production team circulated a jingle:

"Twice a day of bran and vegetable meals, my intestines are two and a half inches hungry, and I don't want to stand up when I sit down, and the captain thinks that he moves slowly."

You can see how people are working now.

What's more, these half-grown boys are at the time when they can eat and grow their bodies.

Consume more.

Fortunately, there are many people, and the work is done quickly. At about five o'clock in the afternoon, they have been searched all over. Tomorrow, the base manure will be piled up, and then potatoes will be planted.

It wasn't time to eat when I got back.

Zhao Chuanliang felt that the time was almost up and he had to catch the bus.

There are three buses a day.

If it is too late, it will be tomorrow night.

He greeted Sun Feng and the others, washed his hands and went straight to the bus station in the county seat.

The car stopped there, and without seeing the driver, Zhao Chuanliang got into the car directly.

There are five or six people in total.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the driver wandered over with the conductor, and it seemed that he had just eaten.

The car departs, and the conductor collects the money.

Zhao Chuanliang paid forty-five cents for the fare, and sat there quietly waiting for the car to go to the city.

Passing Lugou Bridge, Zhao Chuanliang looked at the river.

Twenty miles north along this river is Shougang.

After hesitating for a while, I still didn't get out of the car because I could only get some money there.

In fact, he is not short of money.

At this time, there is nothing better than grain. Grain is hard currency, and ordinary things can be exchanged for grain.

There are small blast furnaces left over from the past everywhere along the way. Near the city, many of them are various construction sites that have stopped working.

One is that there is no food to work, and there are some special reasons that stop work.

It seemed a little desolate.

It used to be a bustling scene here.

At dusk, the car stopped at the Liuliqiao East Bus Station.

He had already inquired about it on the way.

Good luck.

Liuliqiao is outside the second ring road and inside the third ring road in later generations, and there are buses directly to the vicinity of Longtan Lake.

6 bus.

Otherwise, it takes a lot of time to walk a ten-kilometer journey.

Changed into a dilapidated bus at the station, and arrived near Longtan Lake when it was just dark.
