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

"Ziwen, President Fu and Secretary Chen of the commune will be coming today. You will be responsible for receiving them when the time comes."

After the morning meeting, Wu Dagang found Zhou Ziwen and began to give him instructions.

"Okay, I'll go kill the pig first. When they arrive, you can ask someone to notify me."

Zhou Ziwen nodded.

"Hey, why are you busy with that? There are people in our village who can kill pigs. When they are done, you just need to cook."

Wu Dagang said.

There are more than a thousand people in Dabazi Village, many of whom have skills. Some people in the village do jobs like slaughtering pigs.

In his opinion, with Zhou Ziwen's identity, there is absolutely no need for him to do this.

However, Zhou Ziwen was also very happy that the mushroom cultivation base was completed.

Everyone has been busy for so many days, and he wants to make something delicious to reward everyone.

What’s more, the leader of the commune is coming today.

Cooking a delicious meal to satisfy the leaders, isn’t that also a serious job?

"Okay, then I'll go watch them kill the pig!"

Zhou Ziwen smiled and nodded.

He has nothing to do anyway.

The work at the mushroom planting base has been completed, and the leaders of the commune have not arrived yet, so I might as well go and watch the pigs being slaughtered.

"Go ahead! I've arranged everything at the pig farm."

Wu Dagang nodded.

The commune leaders will be here soon, and both he and Zhou Weiguo need to prepare.

Although the people in the commune are not big leaders and everyone is relatively familiar with each other, they are direct leaders, and precisely because the relationship is good, it is more necessary to maintain it.

While Wu Dagang and the team leader were busy entertaining the leaders of the commune, Zhou Ziwen came to the mushroom planting base.

We will have today's pig-killing banquet here.

After all, this pig was killed to witness the establishment of the mushroom cultivation base.

When he arrived at the mushroom cultivation base, it was bustling with activity.

The two pigs had been driven over, and a group of villagers gathered around them, some pulling their ears, some pulling their tails.

The others were not idle either. Some were chopping wood, and some were setting up pots to boil water.

It was quite lively with hundreds of people busy at work, and Zhou Ziwen watched with great interest from the side.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to help, but the villagers won’t let him help.

According to the villagers, he was an educated youth with knowledge and culture, so he didn't need to do such rough work.

He just needs to use his brain.

There is strength in numbers. With so many people helping, the two pigs were slaughtered quickly.

While they were slaughtering the pig, the water in the pot was boiling.

Several strong men carried the dying pig to the big iron pot and began to pour hot water on it and shave its hair.

Although the process was not very pretty, it was clear from the bright smiles on everyone's faces that they didn't mind at all.

Some children who were not in school, upon hearing that pigs were being slaughtered, ran over early to watch the fun.

The adults don’t care, because kids of this age are not that timid.

He climbs up trees to take bird eggs and goes to the river to catch fish and shrimps. His movements are more skillful than those of adults.

"Zhou Zhiqing, today it's up to you."

When the pig was being slaughtered, some villagers made teasing comments.

The villagers have all witnessed Zhou Ziwen's cooking skills.

The superb cooking skills make people want to swallow their tongue.

During the Chinese New Year last year, Zhou Ziwen cooked a pig-killing meal for everyone.

That feeling is still unforgettable.

"Haha, no problem, just watch me!"

This time, Zhou Ziwen also made a pig-killing dish.

The pig-killing dish is a typical Northeastern flavor.

Killing pig dish is a stew made from all parts of the pig.

Pork bones, head meat, hand-torn meat, pork belly, blood sausage, sauerkraut pork and a full set of pig offal.

Because there are so many people, Zhou Ziwen’s pig-killing dish is a modified version, commonly known as a hotpot.

As long as it is edible, it can be stewed in it.

The essence of this dish lies in the seasoning at the beginning.

Zhou Ziwen doesn't need to cook himself, he just needs to master the most critical seasoning.

While Zhou Ziwen was busy preparing the seasoning, a few unfamiliar faces came to the entrance of Dabazi Village.

Each of them rode a bicycle, and there were seven or eight of them in total. They were wearing Zhongshan suits, which were neat and tidy, and looked very impressive.

These people are the leaders of the commune.

The team leader and Wu Dagang had been waiting at the entrance of the village for a long time. When they saw them arriving, they immediately greeted them warmly.

"Secretary Chen, President Fu, Secretary Liu, President Wang... Welcome everyone to come to our Dabazi Village to inspect our work. Please come in."

The team leader is very familiar with the leaders of the commune.

While he was greeting everyone, Wu Dagang was passing out cigarettes one by one.

In this era, almost all men smoke.

Take the team leader and Wu Dagang for example. Their offices are often filled with smoke. If female comrades go in, they probably can't stand the smell.

Especially Wu Dagang likes to smoke tobacco leaves, which smells very bad. Not to mention other people, sometimes even Zhou Ziwen can't stand it.

"We are old acquaintances, why are you being so polite? Let's go in and talk. I heard that your Dabazi Village is very lively today?"

Secretary Chen asked with a smile.

He was well-informed and had been paying close attention to Dabazi Village during this period. So he even knew that the village was going to slaughter pigs for meat.

"Hey, this is for celebration. Last year we had two pigs that were not big enough. After raising them for a few months, they have grown strong. It just so happens that the mushroom cultivation base has been completed, so we grit our teeth and kill a pig for fun!"

Wu Dagang answered with a smile, showing his mouth full of smoke-stained teeth.

"Haha, I see you are living a good life. With the completion of the mushroom cultivation base, your village will also become prosperous."

President Fu said from the side.

"Hehe, it would be great if we could really become rich. President Fu knows that our lives are hard!"

Wu Dagang started to cry poor out of habit.

"Haha, you old man, you're pretending to be poor again."

President Fu patted Wu Dagang on the shoulder, but the smile on his face became even wider.

He had a good relationship with Wu Dagang before.

Now that we have a vested interest, the relationship is even better.

A group of people came to the mushroom cultivation base chatting and laughing.

At this moment, Zhou Ziwen was preparing the pig-killing dish.

Under his operation, the aroma of the pig-killing dish has already wafted out.

The smell is simply intoxicating.

Several commune leaders who had just arrived at the mushroom cultivation base were unable to move after smelling the odor.

"Oh, is Ziwen cooking today? The smell is enough to make me drool."

President Fu had eaten dishes cooked by Zhou Ziwen and had come across him several times before. When he saw Zhou Ziwen cooking, he walked over on the spot.

"President Fu is here, welcome, welcome."

Zhou Ziwen greeted with a smile.

Zhou Ziwen has keen senses and was able to spot President Fu and others as soon as they arrived.

"It smells so good, it looks like we're in for a treat today."

President Fu praised with a smile.

"Haha, it's all for celebration. President Fu, you guys should eat and drink well."

Zhou Ziwen smiled.
