After Black Lotus became a reborn person, he went completely crazy
Chapter 93 It's too fuel-consuming
Shitou didn't live up to his boast today, mainly because the noodles were too filling. After eating two and a half bowls, he couldn't eat any more. He also said that his throat was full, but his mouth still wanted to eat more.
Jingzi did eat two bowls, but they were small bowls with not much noodles in them. This kid loved vegetables, so she scooped more.
The tiger skin chili peppers were mostly eaten by Xia Ran and Cheng Cheng's mother. Gui Niang couldn't stand it after eating some.
"Sister-in-law, your chili peppers are so delicious. How did you make them? I'll try some when I get home. My husband also likes chili peppers."
When Cheng Cheng's mother heard Xia Ran say that she wanted to fry it first, she immediately stopped cooking:
"Forget it. It's delicious, but it uses too much oil. The oil in my house is barely enough to cover the oilseed harvest this year. The weather was good this year, and the oilseed harvest was pretty good. How about next year? It's still unknown.
After the oil is pressed from these oil seeds, we have to wait until next year to eat the oil. We dare not do that. No wonder it tastes so good. We are so generous. When do you two plan to press the oil? Let's make an appointment to go together. When we press together, the machine is hot, the oil yield is higher, and the loss is less. "
"Okay, once you two families have discussed it, just let me know. I can do it any day." Xia Ran spoke first.
Xia Ran then continued to ask: "Who in our village has harvested more oilseeds this year? Are you going to sell them? I want to buy some. I planted less this year, and it's not enough to eat. In addition, there are more places that use oil recently, and there is not much oil left at home."
"The big grain producers in the village are selling it because they grow a lot. My family planted two and a half acres last year, but the harvest was poor. Today we planted one acre, and this year we have a good harvest. I'm not that lucky. I rely on God for my livelihood, it's all based on luck."
Gui Niang said with a smile: "You think only your family planted less this year, many families planted less. You planted a little last year, but some families planted late, so few seedlings emerged, and then the weather was dry and there was little rain. Those families didn't even collect the seeds. Just wait and see, this year's harvest is good, and many families will plant more oilseeds next year."
Cheng Cheng's mother sighed: "That's right. No matter how well we follow the trend, if we can't catch the east wind from God, everything will be in vain."
Xia Ran sighed: "What you said makes a lot of sense."
"Sister-in-law, do you want me to ask you? How much do you plan to buy? Oilseeds or oil directly?"
"Buy oilseeds, buy oilseeds and press them yourself. After pressing, there is oil residue, which can be used to feed pigs. It is very good."
"Well, grease residue is good for feeding pigs. My grandmother told me that people in the past could not stand being hungry. Grease residue is a very good food. It is easy to store and does not spoil easily. When you are hungry, you can just break off a piece and chew it. But this year's corn and potatoes are also good. If nothing goes wrong, we will have a good harvest. A good harvest is good."
That’s right. After coming here, Xia Ran realized how insignificant humans are in front of nature.
The people here are hardworking, diligent, and willing to work hard, but the natural geographical environment has controlled the common people.
Like other places in our motherland, people can live off the mountains and the sea. As long as people are diligent, they can always get food from that land.
But this place is all yellow soil with gullies and it is dry. Even grass doesn't grow, let alone food and trees.
There are only a few apricot trees and poplar trees on the mountain here. It is rare to find wild vegetable roots.
Just as everyone finished cleaning up and chatting, the container made by the carpenter was ready and transported over, and a few people helped carry it and put it in place.
The 1.8-meter-high large wooden container was placed against the wall, directly in front of the kang, just blocking the kang completely and dividing the room into two parts.
The houses here all have sloping roofs, with the lowest floor 3 meters high and the highest almost 5 meters. There is still a long distance from the container to the roof, which does not affect the lighting at all.
There is a certain degree of privacy.
A long glass cabinet was placed against the wall at the front row. Another short glass cabinet was used to block the sides, forming a semi-enclosed shape, leaving only a passage for one person to walk through, leading directly to the inner room.
The layout is reasonable and safe, and only Xia Ran can go in. If you want to take something, you can only go in and out through the inner room.
There is also a wooden bench and a bedside table. The height of the bedside table is tailor-made according to the height of the kang. It fits perfectly when you move it in. It is very convenient to put a cup, flashlight, etc.
The bench was placed directly at the entrance of the house. In the future, when it rains, the women in the village will sit there when they are bored.
In her previous life, Xia Ran hated to hear people gossiping about other people's families, thinking it was a waste of life. Now that she has changed her mindset, she finds that listening to villagers tell stories or gossip about other people's families is also good.
Anyway, the final outcome is to become a handful of ash or soil, so do whatever makes you comfortable.
Let Shitou go to Chuanzi's house and ask Chuanzi's father if he has other plans for tomorrow. If not, can he go to the city to buy some goods?
"Sister-in-law, take me with you tomorrow. I can help you move things. I'm very useful, really. I won't be a hindrance."
Gui Niang slapped Shitou directly, but it was just a light slap: "You are carrying a piece of shit, and you want to take advantage of it and play with it. You even say such nice things, who are you trying to appease?"
"I have no objection. It depends on whether you are free or busy tomorrow. Do you want to help your mother with the work? As for labor, the more the better. I will accept anyone who comes."
"Auntie, what about me? What about me? I want to go too." The yellow-haired girl became anxious when she heard this.
Xia Ran stroked Jing's yellow hairy head and said, "No, you're too young to do that tomorrow. I'll be too busy to take care of you tomorrow. I'm afraid you'll get captured by bad guys."
"Madam, there are no bad guys. Where did the bad guys come from? I will definitely follow you closely and I won't get lost."
"It's really not possible this time. There's no room for negotiation. If you really want to go, wait until next time when I'm not too busy. I can take you to the market or into the city, but I have to get your mother's consent."
"Okay, madam, you keep your word."
Aunt Chengcai came by halfway and said that the matter had been settled and asked me not to worry. Seeing that there were other people there, I didn't talk much and said that I would discuss the details next time I met, and then I left.
He is really reliable and finishes today's work today.
The final result is that Shitou will follow Xia Ran into the city tomorrow and bring some steamed buns for his brother so that he won't go hungry.
In the evening, Xia Ran took a pen and paper and listed a bunch of details of the goods to be imported. In this life, the original body could recognize words, but not many, and could only write on the ground, not with a pen.
This was all due to the fact that when I was a child, I couldn't stand the hunger. After finding food outside, I listened to some lessons outside the wall of the village primary school. At that time, there were few people in the village who went to school, but the old teacher still taught very seriously.
She listened carefully, and the old man noticed her. He was a nice guy, so he pretended not to see her and didn't drive her away. Later, he was too busy and didn't have time to listen, so he stopped.
