From day d onwards, Chuanzhong’s food has been rice + seafood. [Full text reading] After eating seafood in various ways for a month, few people are still interested in these things. Even Wu De's original paella started to feel extremely boring after eating it for two weeks. Although some food improvements were later made under his abbot, such as making smoked fish, fish sauce and fish slabs, some of these things took a long time to mature, and some lacked necessary condiments - everyone thought Bring enough salt, but exclude soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, cooking wine, and spices from the reserve. In the eyes of many people, this is a product with no technical difficulty. You can set up a factory to produce, grow or grow it yourself after time travel. Buy-in - they forget that these things are not available immediately and they have to eat every day.
The result is that whether it is smoked fish or fish slabs, the taste is very weird and it is difficult to be interested in it. Sometimes the catering office also improves the food and uses various cans in the reserve, but the number is a bit small compared to the population base - if two people eat one can of luncheon meat, it will definitely taste boring, but one canned luncheon meat can feed ten people. It's almost like no one eats it.
Wu Nanhai sneakily sent Wu De a piece of smoked sausage one day. This thing he didn't want to see in another time and space, but it made him feel extremely delicious - even though there was no pepper in it, only... some garlic. Wu Nanhai repeatedly asked him to keep it a secret, especially in front of Nick - this was horse meat sausage made with his "Blue Lightning". The body of this Australian racehorse was secretly stolen as private property of the agricultural group. The grave of the racehorse that Nick would pay his respects to when he was free was empty, even the bones were secretly collected - Wu Nanhai planned to use it to make field fertilizer.
After repelling the "First Encirclement and Suppression" - that's what everyone called the counterattack after the "Lingao Express" - the few dead horses they dragged in became their first real attack in more than a month. The food was improved, and this time the six pigs sent by the local gentry became a rare delicacy in the canteen.
But for Wu Nanhai and the others, they were still a little disappointed. These pigs were far worse than what they had seen in another time and space. They were thin and small, with very hard bristles, and looked a bit like wild boars.
"Don't look down on them," Xiong Buyou, who was driving pigs here, looked at a few piglets and swallowed his saliva, "These are Lingao pigs, a famous local specialty that has always been exported to Hong Kong. Lingao suckling pigs Do you know? It’s this kind of pig with thin skin, small bones, tender meat, and a special aroma-"
He looked around at the young pigs with greedy eyes like a big bad wolf: "These pigs are all 13 or 14 pounds. They are just in time. They will be fat and tender when roasted."
"Don't get it wrong, I originally planned to raise the young pigs to be used as breeding pigs. Since you said this pig breed is so good, it is even more important to keep it."
"Have all the big pigs been slaughtered?"
"That's right, I'll give you a tooth sacrifice. I've asked the executive committee for permission." Wu Nanhai looked at a few pigs that were still digging in the soil for food without knowing their fate. "I originally wanted to kill two of them. The executive committee said that if they want to kill all the six big pigs, instead of letting people only eat a small piece of meat, it is better for everyone to eat it happily, which can be regarded as a reward."
Wu Nanhai had already made a plan in mind for the gifts he had received: the two hundred catties of wine was rice wine with a very low alcohol content, which could be used to make cooking wine and vinegar; the soup deer was already slaughtered meat carcasses. Dried venison is an easy food to prepare. Although it has no spices, it still tastes good after boiling it thoroughly with salt water and blowing it dry. It is easy to carry around and can be stored for a long time. Unfortunately, the deer was delivered after it had been killed, and the skin and guts were gone. A cow is a female cow. It is not strong enough to be used as a draft animal in the paddy fields of the south, but it can be used as a local female stock for future beef and dairy cows. The six large pigs are already slaughtered and cannot be used as breeding pigs. Although there is still room for fattening, there is currently a lack of feed. If they continue to be raised, they will lose fat in vain, so they may simply be slaughtered and eaten.
As for how to use these pigs, everyone has already listed many plans: pork belly and rib meat will be used as braised pork, and pig head meat will be used as braised pork. However, there are no spices for the time being. First, use high-end products such as ribs and tenderloin. Put them together in the refrigerator - removed from the kitchen in Fengchenglun. Pork trotters and short ribs can be used to make soup, leg meat and sandwich meat can be used to make minced meat; all fat meat can be boiled in oil, the oil residue can be used for stir-frying, and pork bones can be used to make soup. The brain and spinal cord were individually knocked out for use. Pig blood and viscera are all delicious, but the excrement that cannot be eaten: pig pancreas, pig bladder, pig gallbladder, spleen, etc. have other uses and should be frozen first. In the end, even the pig skin was going to be fried into oily pork skin for cooking - Wu Nanhai really wanted to stop the complaints about the food for a few days. In the end, the food that was really inedible was dried for Wu Nanhai to make feed powder.
Such a comprehensive utilization plan encountered a big problem - no one knows how to kill pigs. To these time-travelling people, pigs are the bright red meat on the chopping board of the vegetable market or in the supermarket freezer. How to turn live pigs into pork has become an unsolvable mystery.
Wu Nanhai found Yang Guobao. Because he had successfully helped the catering office dissect and cut up several dead horses, everyone believed that the task of killing pigs could be given to him. However, Vet Yang shook his head repeatedly and said that it is easy to take away the life of a pig, but killing pigs is a technical job. If you don't do it well, the pork will be wasted. He also cited the example of the European Union. In order to implement animal humanism, the European Union just changed the pig killing method that has been passed down for thousands of years to the electric shock method that is in line with animal humanism. As a result, the EU's pork is now extremely unpalatable.
In the end, it was the veterans of the military group who solved the problem: There was no one in the company who didn't raise pigs. When the food was improved during the Chinese New Year, they would organize the killing of pigs in their own cooking class, and some people even helped in the cooking class. Several veterans rolled up their sleeves, boiled a large pot of water, and slaughtered all the pigs in one go.
A quarantine team composed of Yang Baogui and Shi Niaoren conducted relevant quarantine on the spot and believed that these pigs were still healthy. There was no serious parasitic infection, but all meat was still ordered to be cooked thoroughly.
That night, several large pots of braised pork were cooked in the cafeteria. There was only salt, soy sauce - still very poor solid soy sauce, and the braised pork seasoned with cooking wine won unanimous praise from everyone. Even the girls who were always afraid of getting fat and didn't like eating meat joined the chorus of fighting for too much. Wu Nanhai shed tears when he saw someone actually eating.
"Meat is the most delicious." This is the unanimous conclusion reached by many travelers who have eaten seafood for nearly two months.
But these pots of braised pork also used up the last bit of soy sauce they found in the ship's kitchen. Wu Nanhai planned to find a place to buy some soy sauce and condiments - he had strains for fermentation. But the Agriculture Committee has too much on its plate right now.
As the focus of the entire industry is shifting to Bairentan, various supporting buildings have been constructed one after another. Various properties of the Agriculture Committee will also be transferred to Bairen City. Wu Nanhai travels between the two places every day, cleaning and transporting items. Although he is one of the executive committee members, he rarely calls Beijing 212 according to his rank. He always tries to take agricultural vehicles between the two places. After the move, the only things left by the Agricultural Committee in Bopu were the Bopu canteen guarded by a catering office staff and the fishery production group managed by Chen Haiyang, a former navy man now a fisherman. Chen Haiyang made a report to the Executive Committee: It is required to establish a navy based on the existing ships and personnel of the fishery group and run the fishing industry on the side. The Bobu camp can be managed by the navy, and future maritime trade, shipbuilding, etc. can also be managed by the navy.
navy! Wu Nanhai thought, even before the food problem was solved, someone already wanted to join the navy. Seeing that the tent he had lived in for more than a month had been dismantled, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. He threw the bundles of nylon nets given to him by Wu De on the farm truck. Wu De, a fisherman, is now happily serving as his labor camp captain, tormenting and brainwashing the natives every day. If he had continued to be in the fishery group, why would Chen Haiyang suddenly show up to engage in the navy?
Behind this agricultural vehicle was hung a long list of two-wheeled vehicles abandoned by the heroes of the counterattack. Various belongings of the agricultural team were bundled on it: small agricultural tools, drainage and irrigation equipment, sprayers, and a complete set of Agricultural technology experimental equipment, veterinary equipment, seeds, and many cages containing livestock and poultry such as chickens, ducks, and rabbits... Agricultural vehicles have become like trains here. Although he doesn't know much about cars, Thinking about it, this definitely won't work. Let's just make do with the difficult times. I hope this car can withstand it until all the items are transported.
Yang Baogui waved a homemade whip and directed his six dogs to run forward and backward on the roadside to drive the newly formed marching formation: several pigs, a pair of donkeys and three horses. These large animals enjoyed endless enjoyment. Instead of taking a car, they will be marched on foot to their new home. These breeding animals are very valuable, and the military team sent seven or eight people to accompany them to protect them.
"Lao Yang, thank you for your hard work." Wu Nanhai walked to him and said, "Let's go together." Livestock breeding was not his major, and he wanted to take this opportunity to have a good chat with the veterinarian.
"It's quite far away. It takes more than ten kilometers to walk. Can your bones handle it?" Yang Guoguo looked at his somewhat blessed body.
"That's right, I'm younger than you." It looked like this man with dark skin and a pair of black-rimmed resin lens glasses on his nose looked to be at least thirty-seven or eighty-years-old.
"I'm a veterinarian, a rural veterinarian. Walking more than ten kilometers a day is nothing. Although every village is now connected to a road, there is always only one car. And it is always driven by people who don't go to see doctors." Yang Guogui shook his head. His flat-topped head was parted, and Wu Nanhai found that like him, he tied the two spectacle temples with a rope and hung them around his neck. This commonality greatly increased his favorability.
