After the Earthquake of Rebirth

Chapter 89 Busy Winter

Bottled all the newly made soy sauce and sealed it well. Ning Qiyan wiped off his sweat and sat on a chair beside him.

The temperature outside is now nearly [-] degrees at noon, but the lowest temperature at night has dropped to about zero degrees, while the space is still at fourteen or five degrees above zero.But even if the temperature was more than ten degrees, Ning Qiyan and the others were still sweating profusely in short-sleeved T-shirts.

This batch of soy sauce is already the fourth batch of soy sauce traded with the redemption point, plus the previous three batches of miso and three batches of soy sauce, and the credit points for this batch of soy sauce will be paid when the people at the redemption point come to pick up the goods in the afternoon , They earned almost [-] credit points just by relying on the orders in the past two months, which is much faster than Ning Qiyan's inventory materials in the seller.

The newly harvested soybeans at home are enough to last until next spring according to the current frequency and quantity, plus the peppers that have already been harvested. As long as the hot sauce that I tried before is no problem at the point of purchase, if I sign an order, I will come down this winter Ning Qiyan estimated that they could earn at least [-] to [-] credit points back.

Before paper money was resumed, Ning Qiyan felt that even if their family was not the richest, they definitely belonged to the local tyrants among the survivors in D city.

This is a step further from his idea of ​​contracting land to build a farm. Maybe... he can imagine contracting more land?

Seeing Ning Qiyan sitting next to him distracted and smiling with a dreamy face, Ning Xiaowen shook his head amusedly, not disturbing his idea of ​​where he was running wildly, together with Huzi and Du Cheng, he sealed the sealed The soy sauce was boxed and tidied up, and then the jars that had been emptied began to be cleaned.

After harvesting the chili peppers, they didn’t have any spare jars at all, so they only made four small glass bottles of hot sauce, three of which were eaten by their own family and the Bai’s and Wang Yang’s families. The bottle will be handed over to the redemption point for tasting. It is not a big problem to sign the contract. Although the hot sauce made in different places is somewhat different, as long as the taste is good, he does not believe that the redemption point will give up their supply.

It just so happens that after the batch of soy sauce is sent away today, many jars will be vacant. If the hot sauce that was sent to the person who picked it up last time is okay, the contract can be signed at the redemption point today.

Now the sauce jars at home are not only the ones that Ning Qiyan used to keep as spares at home, but most of them were later bought at a low price from the redemption point.

The jars were washed and dried, and the soy sauce to be sent away was neatly placed in the corner. There was nothing to do, so Ning Xiaowen, Du Cheng and the others sat down again, ready to take a good rest.

"If the land is contracted, can it really be contracted next year?" Huzi asked suddenly.

"It's not a big problem, unless there is another accident next year, which will delay the reconstruction of the city." Du Cheng said.

Beard nodded, it should be... no more accidents, right? !

"Then should we prepare to breed pigs and sheep in advance?" Huzi looked at the row of pig pens and sheep pens beside the yard wall.

If you wait until the land is contracted before breeding, a lot of time will be wasted in the middle.It is best to put these livestock in first, no matter whether it is in time for spring sowing or not, when the land is released, the land will be farmed while breeding.

Ning Xiaowen also looked at the pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks in the yard, "Let's match them up first, regardless of whether the land enclosing next year can be completed or not, let's make preparations first."

"But if the land hadn't been wrapped up, our yard wouldn't be able to accommodate that much! Now these things have crowded the yard to the brim."

Although Ning Qiyan was a little distracted, he didn't delay listening to Huzi and the others, "It's okay, let's match it first. If we can't get it next year, we can sell it to He Jun first, and he will definitely be willing to take it."

Huzi nodded. Du Cheng and Ning Qiyan didn't understand the matter of breeding, so he had to take Du Cheng to practice.

After such a long time, he and Xiaowen both understood that the production and sales of condiments were led by Ning Qiyan, and the four of them have always participated together, but it may be like Ning Qiyan guiding Wang Yang and the others to establish Like the store, it is still planned to be handed over to him and Xiaowen to make and operate it.

With the relationship between the four of them, it would be unfair to say thank you, so Hu Zi and Ning Xiaowen are also very concerned about the farm that Ning Qiyan has been looking forward to.

It would be great if Ning Qiyan was really cousin Xiaowen's son...

Beard suddenly flashed the idea.

If there is a blood relationship, and the four of them are destined to have no offspring, then it will be more logical for the four of them to form a family and live together forever.

But if Xiaowen and Qiyan were really uncles and nephews, then he and Du Cheng would really make the Ning family miserable.

Absolutely extinct...

Now that he remembered the matter of breeding, from this day on, Huzi took Du Cheng to teach him a little bit of experience in livestock breeding. Huzi is not an expert in this field, and he doesn't have any theoretical knowledge. What he taught Du Cheng was from childhood. experience of fellow villagers.

The hot sauce contract was signed without any surprises.

Throughout the whole winter, Ning Qiyan's family hardly had time to relax. Don't even think about the leisurely cat winter of last year. The young man was pulled.They deliberately avoid suspicion and do not touch the making of sauce, but it is no problem to help bottle and seal.

Moreover, the cave dug by the Bai family is between Ning Qiyan's house and Wang Yang's house. The cave is not big enough to sleep the five members of their family. When they are free, they mostly gather at Wang Yang's house to chat and play cards.

The locations of the three are close to each other. Every time a batch of sauce is made, Du Cheng and Huzi will directly move the jars to Wang Yang’s house, and Bai’s and Wang Yang’s houses will help bottle them. The person who ordered can go directly to Wang Yang's house to pick up the goods.Liu Jia and the others scrubbed and cleaned the empty jars, and asked Bai Chengyi and Wang Yang to move them back for Ning Qiyan to continue using.

As for Ning Qiyan's family, Huzi took Du Cheng to breed the grown pigs. Although the lambs born last winter had grown up, they didn't have the best time for breeding. Once, several ewes of the lamb had already brought their cubs before Beard intervened in the breeding.Ning Xiaowen and Ning Qiyan are still mainly in charge of making the sauce. Although it seems to be very busy now, it is mainly because Ning Xiaowen has been hand-chopping the peppers when making the chili sauce, so he didn't use the blender at home.Although this increases the workload, as far as the current order quantity is concerned, manual chopping can also keep up with the order.If the order volume in the future is not too large, Ning Xiaowen plans to chop peppers by hand as much as possible, so that the hot sauce will taste better.

Not just doenjang, gochujang and soy sauce.The vinegar song that Ning Xiaowen had been trying to make since the summer failed a few times and finally made it.Except for the first two times when the vinegar koji was made, the weather was quite suitable, and the next few times were placed next to the earthen stove, and the fire of the earthen stove was kept constant to ensure the temperature to promote the fermentation of the vinegar koji.

However, even though the vinegar koji was ready and Ning Xiaowen had indeed brewed vinegar, they were too busy this winter, so they didn't take out the vinegar, but the three of them ate it at home when they cooked in private.

According to the current frequency and the amount of finished products, including the newly recovered soybeans, it can only be supported until about April. The greenhouses on the platform are used to grow peppers, and Ning Qiyan and the others do not plan to switch to soybeans. It's over, before the next batch of soybeans are harvested, they stop making soy sauce and miso and switch to making vinegar.This batch of peppers will probably be harvested in February and March, and the hot sauce will probably be ready around May. At that time, it will be changed to planting tomatoes and developing tomato sauce.

On the other hand, the chickens and ducks that have been trading with He Jun had to suspend trading because they decided to expand their own breeding numbers.Although He Jun was disappointed, he also understood.Even if the matter of raising chickens and ducks in their seventh resident can no longer be covered up, and almost all the resident are eyeing their chickens, ducks and eggs, he can't force Ning Qiyan to continue the transaction.It is obvious that City D will be rebuilt next year, and the land that Ning Qiyan's family reserved early has already been registered with the government through the army. Naturally, He Jun knows that Ning Qiyan and the others must plan to keep chickens and ducks for future breeding prepare for.

This winter, Han Yan and his team are in charge of inspecting the line of Ning Qiyan's house, so when Han Yan occasionally came to visit, Ning Qiyan also heard that their seventh resident was often killed by people from other resident because of the chickens and ducks they raised. Come here to make soft and hard foam.

However, when Du Cheng and Hu Zi followed the inspection team down the mountain to the station to talk to He Jun about the suspension of the transaction, He Jun didn't mention at all that he is now being chased and intercepted, and his life is in dire straits.He quickly agreed to suspend the transaction, but if the land planned by the government came late and Ning Qiyan and the others couldn't raise too many poultry, he hoped that Ning Qiyan and the others would choose their seventh residence first when they started the transaction again.

Du Cheng and Hu Zi agreed to this on the spot.

It has always been a pleasure to cooperate with He Jun, and compared to other unfamiliar residences, they are of course willing to trade with He Jun out of reason.

After finishing talking, Du Cheng asked casually before leaving: "By the way, I almost forgot, the New Year is coming soon, Qi Yan asked me to ask you, do you want pork?"

He Junping, who was about to send Du Cheng and Hu Zi away, staggered.

"Pig?" He Jun felt that his voice was a little out of tune.

Du Cheng nodded.

"Yes! Definitely! Must! As many as you want! The more the better!" He Jun stood firm and looked at Du Cheng with green eyes.

Pig!That's a pig!I haven't tasted pork in almost two years! !

Even if they raised a lot of chickens and ducks in the resident, in addition to the hens and ducks that lay eggs, the grown-up roosters also killed a dozen or twenty.But there are so many people who can't stand eating!There are nearly 1000 people in their own resident alone. Even if they kill up to five chickens at a time, it is just that everyone can taste a little bit of meat.If you can pull a little chicken out of the dish when cooking rice, it will be like a burst of character.

What's more, chickens and rabbits, how can they catch up with greasy pork? !

Beard curled his lips, "The more the better? It's good to eat some!"

He Jun grinned.

"Well, the Chinese New Year is not far away. As long as there is no snowstorm during this period, we can go down the mountain a year ago, and then we will give you live pigs. If the snow is too heavy to come down, you have to go up the mountain to us. Take it, but if you go up the mountain, you won't be a live pig." Du Cheng said.

He Jun nodded. He always believed that Ning Qiyan and the others belonged to middlemen, who got livestock from a certain family who didn't want to come forward directly, and then traded the extra parts they couldn't eat to him.

Moreover, Ning Qiyan and the others drove them over when they traded chickens and ducks a few times before. If so many living creatures came out of the safe zone of Cangyun Mountain, it is impossible that there would be no news at all.So he guessed that the people who actually raised these livestock probably didn't live in the safe zone at all.Thinking about it, if someone in the safe zone could really raise so many things, and they hadn't been targeted by the government early on, how could it be He Jun's turn to buy them.

So he thinks he understands Ning Qiyan's difficulties. If the snow is too heavy to send the pigs to the station, they can only take them up the mountain and enter the safe zone. The live pigs are too eye-catching and must be killed. The pig moved up the mountain again.

This is also why Ning Qiyan and Du Cheng never directly explained the source of these livestock, but instead gave others a clue to guess. The rest does not need to be supplemented by them personally, and the guesser will naturally have a big brain. Help them understand the cause and effect.
