Travel through 1972 with a space mall

The next morning, when Su Jiao woke up, it was already past nine o'clock. Su's mother had already put her shoe soles on the kang. Ye Yao also did not go out to play for the first time. She stayed in bed and played with the roly-poly.

Ye Mingyuan was not at home. Su Jiao thought that Ye Mingyuan had secretly gone to watch the criticism behind her back, and she jumped angrily.

Su's mother smiled and told her that Ye Mingyuan went to the rice mill to shell and pound rice. Su Jiao suddenly felt embarrassed again.

In addition to the mill, the team also has its own rice threshing mill, oil mill, and tofu mill.

Now these workshops are all manual work.

Ordinary rice for consumption has to go through two processes in the rice threshing room.

The first step is to use the wooden hulls from the rice beating house to separate the rice husks. The rice husks also play a big role in preventing moisture. When storing sweet potatoes, you can lay a layer of rice husks underneath, which will extend the storage time.

Rice with the husk removed is brown rice and can be eaten directly, but it has a rough texture and takes more time to cook.

If you want to eat rice with a better taste, you can proceed to the second step. Use the stone mortar in the rice beating room to pound the rice and grind off the rice bran. The ground rice bran is also a good thing and can treat swelling.

Su Jiao, who was almost going crazy out of boredom on the kang, wondered how Meng Long's affairs were going.

What Su Jiao didn't know was that not only was everything going smoothly on Meng Long's side, but there was also an unexpected gain.

Meng Long returned to the city yesterday afternoon and used his connections to find out some places where Yu Huaicheng often visited. Meng Long finally determined the final location after investigating one by one.

As soon as he got to work this morning, Meng Long made a report saying that someone had provided clues to a secret gambling house, and then led other police officers to the innermost shabby house in a small alley in the east of the city.

Other police officers laid an ambush nearby, while Meng Long pretended to be a gambler and sneaked in.

People who like to gamble and whore all have one thing in common, that is, they like to brag and listen to others praise them. Of course, they are easier to talk about. After a whole morning, Meng Long learned about Yu from other people, both covertly and overtly. Huaicheng's background has been found out.

It turns out that this old boy Yu Huaicheng set up the gambling bureau here, and he is also engaged in speculation in private. No wonder the price of the betrothal gift is 200 casually.

Not only that, Yu Huaicheng is also a regular prostitute, and many of the people who bet with him also follow him to whoring.

Originally, Meng Long wanted to play by chance and set a trap for Yu Huaicheng to make the situation more serious. Now he no longer had to work hard. The things Yu Huaicheng had done by himself were enough for him to work on the farm for the rest of his life.

Meng Long took the opportunity to go out to use the restroom, went out and took his colleagues to raid the place, and brought everyone back to the bureau without leaving a trace.

Su Jiao didn't know that Meng Long was so capable. She was at home with nothing to do. She was eagerly waiting for Wu Xiaoqin. Wu Xiaoqin finally came at about eleven o'clock at noon.

Su's mother had already gone to the kitchen to make lunch. Ye Yao couldn't understand what Su Jiao and Wu Xiaoqin were talking about, so she went to the kitchen to help Su's mother light the fire, and praised Su's mother for being sensible.

In the West Room, Wu Xiaoqin vividly told Su Jiao about the situation of the denunciation meeting, saying that Widow Li had a sign hanging around her neck and had broken shoes, Wang Mazi had his head shaved, and so on.

Su Jiao was stunned when she heard this.

After Wu Xiaoqin told Su Jiao about the situation and made an appointment with Su Jiao to come and play with her in the afternoon, Wu Xiaoqin hurriedly went home to cook.

During lunch, Su Jiao talked about the criticism meeting with Su's mother and Ye Mingyuan.

Su's mother said calmly that when she was a child, the landlord fight in the village was the real big scene, and today's shoe fight is just a small scene.

When Su's mother saw Su Jiao's interest, she briefly told Su Jiao about the scene of the landlord fight at that time.

Su Jiao screamed in her heart for more knowledge.

Su Jiao thought that it would take five or ten days before there was any news about Meng Long helping Yu Huaicheng.

As a result, Meng Long came again in a hurry on the third day, bringing 3 kilograms of pork belly, 2 kilograms of fat meat, a fan of ribs, and a pork belly.

Su Jiao and Ye Mingyuan were both shocked. It was Ye Mingyuan who reacted first, frowning and asked: "Longzi, what are you doing? Move the butcher shop here?"

"Because of the slaughterhouse my family goes to, I got half a pig. I came over today and just got some, so you don't have to buy it. My sister-in-law is pregnant, so you don't need to pay for it. Don't worry, I'm paying for it. .”

"Thank you, Longzi. I happen to have almost eaten all the meat at home. I originally planned to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the commune to check out and buy some." Ye Mingyuan thanked him immediately when he heard that he was helping.

Ye Mingyuan took the meat to the kitchen, found a basin, put the meat in it, and waited for it to be processed at noon before putting it away.

The production brigade of Xiangyang Village belongs to Tanxi Commune, which also has a supply and marketing cooperative. The main reason why Su Jiao went to the county seat before was because she had to go to the black market in the county seat to count the votes because she had no tickets. There was no black market in the commune.

Su Jiao also smiled and took the money and tickets from the kang cabinet and handed them to Meng Long. She had finished eating the pork at home, and she couldn't get it from the space mall. She was also worried, but she didn't expect Meng Long to deliver it.

In the end, Meng Long only took the money and confiscated the tickets, saying that he didn't use the tickets when he bought them at home.

Meng Long knew that the production team did not issue food stamps or meat stamps. Now Ye Mingyuan's family was not short of money, but they really didn't have many tickets.

Su Jiao and Ye Mingyuan thought that they would not have to worry about having too many debts. They already owed too many favors and they would pay them back slowly in the future, so they were not polite to him.

After saying this, Meng Long talked about business with Su Jiao.

"Sister-in-law, Yu Huaicheng's matter has been settled." Meng Long said proudly.

"Really? How come it's so fast? I thought it would take five or six days." Su Jiao was surprised.

"Okay, don't be complacent. I know you're good, so tell me what's going on." Ye Mingyuan saw Meng Long was so proud that he was about to float, and he quickly pulled it down.

Meng Long stopped playing tricks and said seriously, "It was just pure luck. I found out where he went most often. Then I checked in advance and confirmed that it was a secret gambling house. Yesterday, I called the leader. I made a report and led people to surround the place. Then I pretended to be a gambler and went in to talk to others. I found out that he had set up this secret gambling room. Not only that, this old guy was also a regular prostitute and participated in It's nothing more than speculation. We don't even need to think of a solution. With just his own evidence, he won't be able to get out in the future."

"This is such a coincidence." Su Jiao couldn't help but sigh.

"There is still a surprise later, sister-in-law. We brought everyone back to the bureau and interrogated them one by one. It turned out that sister-in-law, your cousin Su Baozhu was also inside." Meng Long quietly threw out another A big surprise.
