Chapter 204 Cutting Sugarcane and Smoked Bacon
More than 200 catties of wild boar king, after processing, there are 200 catties of whole meat, bones, sausages, internal organs, etc., if the pig blood, it would have been drained away, and the pig head meat can still be eaten after a little processing, even though it is disfigured...

How to deal with the cut meat of this wild boar king?Ge Xiaohua thought about it from the beginning, so he didn't share it with the villagers.

"100 catties of meat are smoked as bacon, and the other [-] catties are given to relatives and friends." Rice sausages, offal, etc. should be eaten within two days, otherwise it will easily stink, because the bacon needs to be marinated and dried , In a hurry, Ge Xiaohua called his father Ge Jianguo to come over.

After Ge Xiaohua finished processing the meat, Ge Jianguo also came over when he got off work. He saw that the yard was busy and the wind was blowing, and there was a smell of pigs.

At first when Ge Xiaohua said about killing pigs, he thought he was killing domestic pigs, and he invited a professional butcher in the village to help. Now it seems that Ge Xiaohua is alone?

"Xiaohua, this..." In front of Ge Jianguo were perfectly cut pieces of meat, as well as offal such as bones, internal organs, and intestines, all of which had been cleaned up, which made Ge Jianguo very puzzled.

"Dad, I've taken care of everything. This is wild pork. You take it back and give it away. Put it in the water or something, and eat it directly in the hot pot at night."

"Wild boar? By the way, I remember that a few days ago, the county was reviewing the documents for hunting wild boar in Gejia Village. Not long after it was approved, a wild boar was killed in the village?"

"Not one end, but two ends. One head weighs a hundred catties, and this one weighs more than 200 catties!"

"More than 200?" Ge Jianguo looked at the meat in front of him, and at a glance he saw that half was missing. What about the other half?

"I use the rest to make bacon."

"You're fine, kid. It's not long since I arrived in my hometown. One person can stand up to several people. Okay, I'll go back first." Ge Jianguo called his friend and planned to eat authentic wild boar hot pot at his house at night. It was a rare item, so Ge ​​Jianguo's friends were naturally very happy.

After all, Ge Jianguo is the director, and his friends are all at the level of the director. It is easy to make a table, and it is good to communicate with each other once in a while. Through this kind of game, it is more possible to call them together. You can’t usually eat it, and you will be full. , and then everyone mentions a few wild boar meats, it must be flattering.

Civil servants are usually very busy, so it’s okay to relax occasionally. You can expand your network and make Ge Jianguo’s work smoother. In fact, Ge Jianguo is also coveting the position of director of the Agricultural Bureau. As the first deputy director, He is also the director of the Agricultural Machinery Bureau. The director of the Agricultural Bureau is more likely to be elected, but he is afraid that if someone from the city parachutes over, he will be in trouble. At his age, his official career will stop here, but people? , will never be satisfied.

Ge Jianguo also wanted to fight for it. This wild boar meat just happened to invite those colleagues over. After drinking for three rounds, he could try to talk about it. Their opinions are still very important.

Ge Xiaohua didn't know Ge Jianguo's current situation. He was not interested in civil servants. More complicated interpersonal relationships were not what Ge Xiaohua liked to understand.

The selected pork is fat and lean. After marinating, it needs to be air-dried for three days before being smoked. During these few days, Ge Xiaohua plans to chop sugarcane and smoke it with bagasse and sugarcane husk.

Ordinary domestic pork is about 12-15 yuan a catty. It is basically a feed pig and tastes average, but after being smoked with sugar cane, the price can skyrocket to 45 yuan a catty, which shows the popularity of bacon.

Wild boar bacon is even rarer, and the price is estimated to be 100 yuan per catty, which is still priceless.

Ge Xiaohua's family planted some sugar cane, and Ge Jianguo asked his relatives to help plant them, and gave them a little money. These sugar canes were usually harvested and used to make white sugar.

Now that Ge Xiaohua has taken over everything in his hometown, this piece of sugarcane is naturally his too. It is too wasteful to make white sugar. Ge Xiaohua can use these sugarcanes to smoke bacon to achieve its greatest effect, and it is good to eat sugarcane when he has nothing to do. of.

And I don't know if Meteor likes to chew sugar cane, it would be good to chop it back and give it a taste, but Ge Xiaohua can't get out the sugarcane dregs for smoking 100 catties of bacon by chewing alone, so Meteor can help.

The next day, the bacon was still drying in the yard. Although there was monitoring, I was afraid that the meat would be stolen, mainly sparrows and the like. It would be too wasteful to be eaten by these birds, so there must be no garrison forces in the yard. .

"Jinlun, I'll leave it to you to protect the bacon." Ge Xiaohua knelt down and looked at it with serious eyes.

Jin Lun also looked at Ge Xiaohua with firm eyes, people who don't know how to do it thought they were doing something.

With the guarantee of Jinlun, there is no need to worry about the safety of the bacon. Jinlun will have to work harder in the past few days.

Sugar cane Jinlun is inedible, after all, dogs cannot eat white sugar, so the job of gnawing sugar cane can only be left to Meteor.

Ge Xiaohua deliberately took out the cart from the warehouse, repaired it, put it on Meteor, and instantly changed from a horse to a carriage!

In the past, Ge Xiaohua remembered that this cart existed when he was a child. It was used as an ox cart, but now it has been transformed into a horse cart under Ge Xiaohua's transformation.

The function of the carriage is to load goods. On the narrow village road, Highlander is not suitable for it, so it is necessary to cut sugarcane. Since you have brought Meteor, it is also good to equip the carriage. You can take the cut sugarcane with you. return.

The sickle that Ge Xiaohua brought was a death sickle made during the competition in the United States, with a retractable handle. Ge Xiaohua used it more conveniently, and it was just right for cutting sugar cane.

Instead of storing dust in the exhibition room of the blacksmith shop, it is better to use it. Originally, the sickle is a practical utensil. It is not easy to make it into a work of art, but it must not lose its agricultural value.

"Drive!" Ge Xiaohua yelled from behind, who hadn't been in a carriage yet, and Meteor pulled the cart forward, heading towards the sugarcane field inside Ge Xiaohua's house.

There are still a lot of sugarcane planters in the west of Guangxi. The sugarcane field in Ge Xiaohua’s house is not large, but because the sugarcane technology is relatively advanced now, the planting area is not large, and a lot can be harvested. Ge Xiaohua made a rough estimate, at least about 1000 jin. , You must know that this sugarcane variety developed in western Guangxi has a yield of up to [-] jin per mu.

Sitting in the carriage, Ge Xiaohua staggered, very relaxed, looking at the beautiful scenery of the countryside compared with the high-rise buildings in the big cities, this environment can cultivate people's sentiments more, and can make him calm down and think.

"It's here!" Ge Xiaohua yelled, Meteor stopped, and was eating young grass on its own. It is Meteor's instinct to replenish energy during the rest. After all, the carriage pulled all the way, even though it was empty, it was also very tired. .
