Rebirth of the Southern Drift Era

Chapter 513 Years

"Now you can get rich by raising a head of cattle, and even buffalo meat has become valuable."

When the price of beef in foreign countries rose wildly, it was also affected in China. It just so happened that this time was the time of the Chinese New Year, and even in the countryside in southern Shonan, beef inevitably rose a bit.

Liu Qian and her two children were basking in the sun in the yard. The winter sun shone on her body, making her feel warm.Moreover, it is also good for children to bask in the sun more, and it can also prevent jaundice.

Liu Chang's mother was busy making tofu by herself, and she was also busy in the yard.Zhang Xue and Xu Ke helped her, and when the women were busy, they inevitably chatted about recent events.

The Liu family seldom goes out to buy vegetables during the Chinese New Year. Chicken, duck, beef, mutton, pork, and fish are all available at home, and they eat a lot of vegetables during the New Year.Even the tofu is homemade. Except for a small seasoning that needs to be purchased, there is really nothing to prepare.

"It's not easy to raise a cow. We don't use feed to raise cows here. We just graze on grass. It takes about two years for a cow to grow up and produce meat. No matter how high the price of this beef is, it will take time."

Liu Chang's mother didn't quite agree with Liu Qian's words. In southern Shonan, all cattle are raised in Buddhism.In the past, cattle were used to plow the land, but now they are no longer used to plow the land, but cattle still don't take much thought.

They are driven out to the mountains to graze every day, and then locked up at night.What are the feeds? The people here have no such concept in their minds.Liu Qian did not let go of the cattle, so she was not very clear about these.

Therefore, apart from the cost of cowboys, raising cattle only takes a little time later, and the cost is really not high.But for people in southern Shonan, the time cost is actually higher.If they had that much time, they might be able to earn more.

"Your family is here today, so we just came to join in the fun."

While chatting, Aunt Liu Chang came over with Zhao Xiao and He Ming's two children.She had chatted with Liu Chang's mother in the group, and knowing that Liu Chang's family made tofu for the New Year today, she came over to get some back and help out by the way.

Liu Chang's aunt doesn't know how to make tofu, but her family is not short of money to buy tofu.It's just that Liu Chang's mother makes it every year, and it's more reassuring to make things at home, so Liu Chang's aunt and the others will come over every year to take some back for the New Year.

In southern Shonan, every family will make a lot of tofu during the Chinese New Year. Some of them are fried and stored for Chinese New Year, and some of them have to be dried to make fermented bean curd and dried bean curd.There are also tofu dregs that are fried once and then rolled into balls, which can also be eaten.

For Shonan people, making tofu is a big job.Most people only make tofu during the Chinese New Year or when there are big weddings at home, and they don’t make tofu at other times. They buy tofu outside.

Liu Chang's mother didn't mind the trouble. She would make tofu many times a year, just to eat at home.There are a lot of people in her family, and every time she comes back for a meal, she has to fill up two tables.In addition, her grandson and granddaughter also like tofu, so she will make it often.

Tofu, rice noodles, sweet potato vermicelli and rice tofu, Liu Chang's family makes all these things by themselves.Anyway, besides traveling and dancing at night, Liu Chang's mother has a lot of time to do during the day.

In addition to tofu, Liu Chang's mother would also fry some rice flour balls, glutinous rice balls, and sweet potato fries balls every year during the Chinese New Year.There are very few people who do these now, and Liu Chang's family still makes some every year.

The living conditions of most people's families are better, so they don't do these anymore.In addition to the propaganda of various experts, what kind of fried food causes cancer, and smoked food also causes cancer, so now few people do these things, just go out and buy some and come back.

Liu Chang's little aunt came over and brought back not only some tofu, but also some meatballs.She has a very close relationship with Liu Chang's family, and it's not far away, so she often comes to sit and sit.

"Auntie and cousin are here, have you had breakfast?"

Seeing the aunt and cousin who came in from the yard, Liu Qian greeted with a smile.During the period of confinement at home, Liu Qian has gained a lot of plumpness, which is completely different from before pregnancy.Although she has controlled eating, she is still growing.

There is no way, she is carrying twins now, and the energy needed is too great.Even so, it is difficult to supply enough for the two children, and they have to use milk powder.Shonan Dairy's milk powder is now a well-known milk powder not only in China, but also in the world.

At the beginning, there was a lot of trouble about that incident, and how many milk powders in the country fell down.Only the Shonan Dairy Industry, not only was not affected, but became more famous.

It's just that the milk powder of Shonan Dairy still adopts the real-name membership system to purchase, because their production is limited.Although there are pastures everywhere, it is not easy to produce good milk powder, and their milk powder has been confirmed by multiple layers.

From the source to the factory, all links are tested.Therefore, the amount of milk powder produced each year is limited, and the price is higher than ordinary milk powder.Despite this, the milk powder of Shonan Dairy is still the best seller, and the supply has always been in short supply.

"Hello auntie."

After Liu Chang heard the voice, he also got up and said hello. He is a little sleepy now, sitting in the yard and lying in the sun.The weather is too comfortable for sleeping.

"I ate it, but I didn't make it myself. This is not the novice rice noodle shop at the intersection of your brigade. Zhao Xiao and I ate there when we came over. It tastes good and the business is very good. It's made of their rice tofu. It's delicious, and the rice noodles are also delicious."

Aunt Liu Chang replied with a smile, and went to help Liu Chang's mother.In fact, two people are enough to make tofu. You don’t need to choose water, just use ready-made water. If you want to burn firewood, Liu Chang’s nephew will be there.There are more people, more chatting or something.

"The store you mentioned, the products of that store are very authentic and the materials used are very formal. But these things are too energy-consuming, so they don't have the energy to continue to open a branch store. They just opened a store at the intersection, which is just enough. Can Earn money, and you won’t be tired.”

Liu Changma, the owner of the rice noodle shop at the intersection, knew each other. Sometimes the family would eat there when they were too lazy to cook.Because it is safe to eat there, many things are still made with the method of calling it a day.

This is also the reason why the business there has always been very good. The Liujiawan brigade alone now has a lot of people going there for breakfast every day, and there are also some tourists. Can the business there be bad?It's just that there is a limit to what they make, there is only so much every day, if it is later, there will be nothing to eat.

"Do you want to eat tofu? If you want to eat it, hurry up and put it in a bowl, and add the ingredients yourself. If you don't eat it, I will make all the tofu later."

The process of making tofu is not small. First, soak the soybeans in advance, and then grind them into pulp.It has to be heated in a pot, and then squeezed.At this time, put the brine again, and the bean curd will come out.

Most of the people in southern Shonan eat bean curd with salt, salt, soy sauce, and chili powder.There are also those who like to eat sweet, put sugar in it and eat it directly.For example, the people in Liu Chang's family are like this, with inconsistent tastes.Brother Liu Chang and Liu Chang's parents are typical salty and spicy parties, while the others are all sweet parties. The children are all the same, all are sweet parties.

"Let me eat some. I only eat this homemade tofu flower a few times a year. It's such a rare opportunity."

After hearing this, Liu Chang got up with a smile, ready to make something for himself.He won't eat too much, just a small bowl.Then put some salt, and then some home-made chili powder, stir it, and eat it after it cools down a little.

This thing is just a taste, too much is not enough.It's the same with water tofu. It's not bad to eat two meals, but it's not good if there are too many.Yes tofu is freshly made tofu. This kind of tofu is not fried or smoked, so it has a beany smell.

Water tofu is used to make mapo tofu and braised tofu, and crucian carp tofu soup can also be used.Liu Chang's mother will make this soup from time to time recently. I heard that it is very good for breastfeeding women. How is it actually? You have to ask an expert.

But Liu Chang's mother didn't care so much, Liu Qian is just breastfeeding now.The family is now making tofu, and the deep-water crucian carp in the reservoir is just used to make soup.Not only delicious, but not much fishy smell.

"You stay at home every day. When did you lose your share when cooking at home? Your elder brother's family and Xiaoqian's family are not at home often. They only eat a few times a year."

Liu Chang's mother laughed and cursed after hearing what Liu Chang said.After Liu Qian got married, she would only come to Liu's house during Chinese New Year and holidays. How could she have time to come over at other times?Liu Ye's family is outside, so Liu Ye sometimes goes home.

"When Xiaoqian goes back, my family will kill the cattle and a few sheep, and bring some back to Xiaoqian. Your little uncle raised more than a dozen cows and dozens of sheep last year. I'll bring it to Xiaoqian then. Xiaoqian has married outside, so sometimes it's hard to get good food."

Aunt Liu Chang answered at this time, Liu Qian and his wife usually have to go to work, and they have to go back to Lu Yi's house during the Chinese New Year holidays, so there is very little time to come to the countryside.It's rare to come here to stay for a while, so it's natural to bring some good things up.

As for how much a cow and a sheep are worth, it is not a big deal for Liu Chang's family or Aunt Liu Chang's family.He Ming started with rubber and plastic materials, and now has investments in many industries, and his net worth is not low.

Moreover, Brother Liu Chang helped He Ming achieve his current success.Therefore, in the exchanges between the two families, most of the time, they don't care about how much it is worth, but whether it is there or not.If you have, take some from each other.

When every household in southern Shonan was busy posting Spring Festival couplets, cleaning and preparing ingredients for the New Year, a new news was suddenly announced.On the basis of the achievements made in BSE type [-], Shonan Biology has made new achievements in BSE type [-].As soon as this result was announced, Shonan Biology became famous all over the world.

Although there are only results on Type [-] and Type [-], this result is the first to have research results for the current situation.At this time, whether it is domestic or foreign, they are basically exploring, but there are no relevant achievements.

The sudden news of Shonan Biotech is like thunder in this busy and anxious environment. Many people and companies have turned to Shonan Biotech, waiting for their latest results.

Because the latest type three is very different from type one and type two, that is, the mode of infection has changed.It is no longer transmitted by the flesh and bones, but can be transmitted through the air, and there are even other ways, which is terrible.

You must know that Type [-] and Type [-] can be transmitted to humans. If Type [-] can also infect humans, it will probably be a major disaster for the world.

After the results of Shonan Biology were announced, it had little effect on the spread of type [-] mad cow disease.In addition to the domestic, the whole world is facing the aggression of this problem, and even the domestic has become precarious.

It's just that people in China don't have a deep understanding. After all, the problem of the second senior brother hasn't arisen at this time. The domestic people don't have much experience with some foreign things. They don't think this thing will appear in China, and they don't think this thing will How much damage.

"Oh! The price of beef has increased again. Fortunately, our family has already bought beef for the Chinese New Year."

At the age of 28, people around me are nagging about the price increase of beef.At this time, the only ones that have not increased in price are pork and mutton, and the price is still the same as before.Shonan didn't eat much beef during Chinese New Year, but after getting rich these years, beef has become a dish that needs to be prepared for Chinese New Year.

Stir-fried beef with dried chili and veggie leaves, with ginger and garlic, many people will make a dish during the Chinese New Year.This dish is very popular in Shonan.After dinner, you can still get it out, after all, beef is not cheap at any time.

Liu Chang's family does not need to buy beef, but other families in the village do.When Liu Chang was at home, he often heard people in the village discussing beef.This is still in China. It is said that by this time abroad, there is no beef to sell in many places.

Even the big country over there, the country that likes to treat cattle as sacred objects, is in a hurry.Too many of their sacred objects died. The key point is that no one dares to eat the cows after death. No one knows whether this type [-] virus will be able to infect humans like the previous ones.

Liu Chang is also very anxious about this meeting, he is worried that the issue will spread to China.If the truth comes in, he will probably suffer the greatest loss.Because now not only are there many people raising cattle in the countryside in southern Shonan, but there are also many cattle in the agricultural bases in southern Shonan.If that thing gets in, there will be problems with Shonan Agriculture.

As the days went by, although Liu Chang was worried about this issue, it didn't disturb the atmosphere of his family's New Year's Eve.This year's Spring Festival in Liu Chang's family is very lively, and it is a rare real family reunion.Liu Ye's family, Liu Chang's family, and Liu Qian's family, together with the addition of Liu Qian's family, this year is very lively.

On New Year's Eve, after the reunion dinner, it's time for a group of children to play around with red envelopes.All kinds of fireworks and firecrackers were moved out of the yard and set off outside.Fireworks and firecrackers are not allowed in southern Shonan, but they cannot be set off in the villages. There are designated places for fear of causing fires.
