The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside

The most important hot pot base is chili, followed by douban.

Zhou Ziwen has a lot of these two things at home. Chili peppers were given by the villagers when he got married, and Douban was exchanged for it from Aunt Li.

Douban is a commonly used item at home. It not only adds color to dishes, but also adds texture and taste.

It’s too late this year, so Zhou Ziwen plans to do something by himself next year.

The chili peppers as the base for hot pot need to be boiled in water first, then mashed until thoroughly cooked, then heated in oil and stir-fried.

As Zhou Ziwen began production, Chen Shiying and Shen Zhaodi also joined.

With these two kitchen experts, Zhou Ziwen gradually retreated to the second line. For some operations, he only needed to give instructions.

Chen Qiaoyi was not idle either. This girl took the initiative to volunteer and stayed at the stove to light the fire.

Zhou Ziwen was happy to have someone to help him.

Shen Zhaodi and Chen Shiying were very quick and quickly completed the preliminary work.

"Let me fry it!"

Zhou Ziwen rolled up his sleeves and prepared to take action himself.

Chen Shiying stepped aside and watched Zhou Ziwen display his skills expectantly.

"Stir-frying the base ingredients is actually very simple. First, you have to be willing to add oil, and second, you need to pay attention to the heat..."

Zhou Ziwen started to take action, and at the same time he was not idle, and began to explain each step of the operation.

He knew that Chen Shiying liked to hear this.

This girl has no other hobbies, she just likes to study cooking.

In particular, he has a strong interest in the special dishes of various places.

A large part of Chen Shiying's favorable impression of Zhou Ziwen comes from her cooking skills.

This is also the reason why Zhou Ziwen obviously doesn't like cooking, but he insists on improving his cooking skills and always puts Chen Shiying down.

Its purpose, according to his own explanation, is to do what he likes.

As for the deeper reasons, that is unknown...

As Zhou Ziwen operated, an alluring fragrance wafted out.

"It smells so good, Brother Zhou. I didn't expect the hot pot base you fried to be so fragrant." Shen Zhaodi showed an intoxicated expression when she smelled the smell.

As a native of Sichuan and Chongqing, she has a natural say in hot pot.

The smell was so fragrant that she almost drooled.

Just from the fragrance alone, she felt that the taste would not be any worse.

At this moment, she felt that the hot pot she had eaten before was a bit ordinary and not a real delicacy.

"It smells good. The most important thing about this hot pot is the base. Only when the base is fried well will it taste good." Zhou Ziwen accepted Shen Zhaodi's praise calmly.

Considering that the Chen sisters cannot eat spicy food, Zhou Ziwen specially adjusted the formula to remove some of the spiciness and retain only the aroma.

That is to say, his cooking skills are good, otherwise he would not be able to do this.

"Wow, what are you doing? It smells so good."

At this time, Zhou Chaoyang ran in from outside.

"You can see for yourself." Shen Zhaodi said a word, then turned away and ignored him.

"This is the hot pot base!" Zhou Chaoyang was not stupid. He even heard them say this during lunch.

"It smells good, Brother Ziwen made it." Chen Qiaoyi said proudly.

"Hehe, Brother Zhou cooks himself, so why don't you show off your cooking skills!" Zhou Chaoyang praised with a smile.

Zhou Chaoyang smiled and said nothing, and then asked about his affairs, "How is it? Did the escort agree?"

"Hehe, Captain Wang is very easy to talk to. He agreed as soon as I told him." Zhou Chaoyang said proudly.

In fact, Zhou Chaoyang was a bit exaggerated. Although Wang Hongbing did agree to take him with him, he also made some demands.

For example, you must obey other people's arrangements, you cannot run around after entering the mountain, and you cannot talk casually, etc.

Although they go up the mountain mainly to set traps, if they encounter prey on the way, they will not let it go.

That is to say, Wang Hongbing knew that Zhou Chaoyang and Zhou Ziwen had a good relationship, so he was willing to give this face.

If it were any other educated youth, don’t even think about it.

It has to be said that Zhou Ziwen's reputation is indeed great.

He didn't even say anything, but others were willing to give him face.

Those who can become the leaders of the production team are smarter. How could they not inquire about Zhou Ziwen, an outstanding talent?

Not only Wang Hongbing, but also several other leading cadres in the village knew him well.

Some minor problems were solved directly without Zhou Ziwen having to ask.

Since the first batch of mushrooms were sold in the village, Zhou Ziwen's status in the village has been greatly improved.

There is a vague tendency to become the fifth giant in the village.

But Zhou Ziwen doesn't care about these. For him, Dabazi Village is just a place where he can stay temporarily, make some achievements, and just want to have better living conditions.

For him, the most important thing is to improve himself.

With the AFK panel, he is improving every moment. It only takes a short time for him to become a master in a field.

"show off."

Shen Zhaodi gave Zhou Chaoyang a roll of his eyes.

"Brother Zhou, Captain Wang said that if you are interested, you can go together." Zhou Chaoyang said.

"Okay, then call me when you go, and I will go and have fun too." Zhou Ziwen nodded.

Although he had no plans to go up the mountain before, now that people have invited him, he also wanted to take a look.

If given the chance, he would also like to touch the gun.

As the saying goes, no matter how good your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of the kitchen knife. Although his boxing level is very high, he can't avoid shooting.

This era is not that safe. If there is a chance, he would also like to get a gun and unlock shooting skills.

In this day and age, although it is a bit difficult to get hold of a gun, it is relatively easy.

If you get there later, it will be difficult to touch a gun again.

Besides, although the people in the escort are not hunters, they will definitely know some hunting skills when they live in the countryside, and Zhou Ziwen also wants to learn from them.

Now that the village is on holiday, there is no need to guard the food after the autumn harvest, and the guard team is also free.

No, while they have time, they also go to the mountains to hunt for some game.

In fact, this kind of thing is not allowed, and if someone finds out, it will be another trouble.

If Zhou Chaoyang hadn't leaked it to the people in the escort team, he wouldn't have known about it.

This fact was tacitly known, and many people in the village knew about it. Only educated youths like them from outside did not know the situation.

Of course, this is because the production team is guarding against them, fearing that they will run out and make nonsense after knowing this.

After all, the educated youth who went to the countryside had a hard life. If they knew the news, they would definitely feel unbalanced.

You might just think about it and report it.

Some people just can't see others being kind. It's even worse to see others get better but not benefit yourself.

Of course, there is no need to worry about this with Zhou Ziwen.

The village also knew that he was rich and capable, so they would not hide it from him.

This was also the reason why Wang Hongbing invited him.
