Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 282 Rana Aohua
However, this old Oroqen man was stunned by Wang An.

Then the old man smiled and took the cigarette.

Wang An wanted to leave, but he felt it would be impolite to leave like this, so he started chatting with the old man again.

One old and one young, chatting pretty well.

From the conversation, Wang An learned that the old man was an old gunner, a gunner who had actually shot Big Claw.

Moreover, this old man is also a craftsman and can make many things.

But now that I am older, I have settled near the county seat.

In fact, the Oroqen people originally made a living by hunting, and they are the real masters of the mountains.

And the reason why they had no fixed place and had been wandering in the mountains to fight against wolves, tigers and leopards was actually not their original intention.

During the Qing Dynasty, the emperors of Kangxi and Qianlong specifically issued an edict not to allow them to settle down.

Because during the Chinese New Year, Wang Dazhu had a catfish weighing nearly 20 kilograms, a salmon weighing seven or eight kilograms, and many forest frogs.

So Wang An made an excuse and drove the sledge deeper into the market.

The old man was very enthusiastic and insisted on inviting Wang An to his house for a drink, but how could Wang An go?

Wang An drove the sledge and looked around, and unexpectedly found someone selling toads.

Because the wood frogs in this season are in hibernation and have nothing in their stomachs, it can be said to be clean.

And a large number of people escaped from the border and became Lao Maozi people.

Although it is still fish, the taste is totally different.

Toad is a forest frog, also called a snow clam.
This thing is quite delicious.

This also forced the remaining members of their tribe to flee deeper into the mountain.

They have the worst food, the worst clothing, and the worst weapons, but they are ruthless people who make their enemies fearful.

However, under the Qing government's successive conscriptions, the number of their ethnic groups dropped sharply, and in the end they almost wiped out the entire ethnic group.

But Wang An still likes many of the fish and wood frogs in "Three Flowers, Five Luo and Eighteen Sons".

Wang An also felt that if he had a chance in the future, he should go and see this old Oroqen man.

The same method is used for wood frogs, and the wood frogs only need to be washed, not even disemboweled.

And there is no need to make it in a complicated way. Just wash it and throw it into the pot, add water and some salt, and just stew it directly.

These two kinds of fish and forest frogs were eaten by Wang An seriously and very well. They were delicious. They were indeed delicious.

Even in this era, the price of wood frogs is not cheap at all.

When it comes out of the pot, add some chopped green onion and dried coriander, and you're done.

Although Wang An has no interest in ordinary fish and has no idea of ​​eating it.

Because the Oroqen people are natural warriors, they were also the main source of elite combat power for Daqing.

But when Wang An left, the old man told Wang An his address and told Wang An that he must go for a drink when he was free, and Wang An naturally agreed.

Of course, male forest frogs are not expensive, costing 2 cents per pound, which is not as expensive as wild boar meat.

But because of the wood frog oil, the female wood frog is more delicious and costs 1 yuan per pound.

It’s almost a day’s salary for a regular employee.

Rana oil is actually the fallopian tube of the female Rana, which has been used as a medicinal material since ancient times.

And because the wood frog oil from each female wood frog is not much at all after drying.

Therefore, the purchase price of this thing at the supply and marketing cooperative is quite expensive.

There are actually several types of forest frogs. At least the forest frogs in Heilongjiang Province are different from the forest frogs in the other two provinces in the Northeast.

The most striking feature is that the forest frogs in the Black Province are small, have rough skin, and have red spots on their bellies.

The wood frogs in the other two provinces are larger, have smoother skin, and feel better when touched.

When eating forest frogs, the female forest frog is naturally the first choice, mainly because this thing is so delicious!
After boiling it in salty brine, place the whole wood frog in your mouth and pull out the entire bone.

Chew it gently, and the wonderful little taste will come up with a "ouch".

Wang An did not hesitate and bought all the female forest frogs half-packed in baskets frozen into popsicles. Male and female wood frogs are very easy for locals to distinguish, and they can be distinguished accurately at a glance.

Because female wood frogs are larger than male wood frogs, but saying this seems to be too general and like nonsense.

The simplest method is that the forelimbs of female wood frogs are slender, while the forelimbs of male wood frogs are short and thick, and there is a large gray-black bump on the forefoot of male wood frog.

If you still can't tell the difference and still want to eat forest frogs, you can just eat whatever you want.

The elder sister selling forest frogs was quite happy, but when she looked at the male forest frog carrying a basket on her back, the elder sister suddenly stopped Wang An.

Just listen to the eldest sister say: "Brother, I see you are not short of money, why don't you take this male toad away too?"

Wang An knew that "take" didn't mean to give something away, but meant "to spend money to buy it".

Because this eldest sister is round and fat, which is rare in this era, Wang An joked:
"Sister, you are so kind, why did you give me so many toads?"

Wang An's words made the round eldest sister unable to speak, and she just stared blankly at Wang An picking up the backpack.

But when Wang An was about to turn around, the eldest sister reacted and shouted anxiously:
"Brother, you haven't paid me yet?"

Wang An pretended to be confused and said: "Didn't you tell me to take it away? What money will you give me?"

The two of them spoke loudly, making the fish seller next to them laugh.

People in the Northeast are very respectable, regardless of gender, so hearing the fish seller's laughter made the eldest sister feel embarrassed.

I saw the round eldest sister moving her mouth, then stamping her foot and saying: "Take it away, no more money."

Wang An could no longer hold back his laughter, and then said to the eldest sister with a smile:
"I think your backpack is pretty good. I took it for nothing. Why can't I take the backpack away? I'll give you two dollars, okay?"

As Wang An spoke, he took out 2 yuan from his pocket and handed it over.

Because Wang An was carrying the toad, he didn't feel it weighed ten pounds, and it didn't look like it weighed ten pounds.

Normally, there are about five to six black frogs per pound, and normally 6 are equal to one pound.

The eldest sister was stunned by Wang An's sudden reversal. She stretched out her hand halfway and then retracted it.

The fish seller next to me smiled and said, "Sister, take it. This brother is very particular about people, hahaha."

Wang An put the money forward again, and the elder sister took it with a smile and said:

"Brother, you are a good man. Do you have a partner? Can eldest sister introduce you to one?"

When Wang An heard this, he was immediately shocked.

Because Wang An grew up so big, including before Wang An became a rich man in his previous life.

This eldest sister was the first outsider who said she wanted to introduce a partner to Wang An.

It’s really not easy!
However, Wang An still smiled and said: "We will have children soon. Thank you for your kindness, eldest sister, haha."

Wang An carried a sack with female forest frogs in his left hand and a backpack with male forest frogs in his right hand. He turned around and returned to the sledge.

I have to say that I feel very happy when someone introduces me to someone!
Wang An looked at the fish seller and bought four more Aohua fish from the "Three Flowers and Five Luo" variety.

Then he walked outside the market.

When he walked outside the market, he looked at his watch and saw that it was almost noon. Wang An drove the sledge and walked to the house in the county town.

Yes, Wang An misses Fang Xiu'e. To be precise, Wang An misses women.

The 20-year-old young man, who is full of energy, has very high fighting power, and his energy is too strong every day, which makes him feel uncomfortable.

When Wang An arrived at the county house, it was a bit early and the door was still locked.

So Wang An was helpless and bored, and waited for a long time.

Just when Wang An finished smoking his third cigarette, Fang Xiu'e's figure riding a bicycle appeared.

The current Wang An has a crystal worm upper brain, and he doesn't think about anything else except that.

So this time, it was Wang An who took the initiative to insert the door and used the door bars to hold the door up.

Then, Wang An picked up Fang Xiu'e who was opening the door and ran straight into the house.
