Beginning Backpack [Farming]

The piece of animal meat left over from cooking was still placed on the stove. The meat was firm and textured, and it looked like a piece of very high-quality fresh meat.

Now that the food is not durable, Shen Huaijin is reluctant to waste such a good piece of meat.He took it to the bamboo crossing and washed it with stream water. After drying it, he cut it into thin and translucent meat slices, intending to make it into jerky and save it for eating.

Beat bird eggs into the brightly colored meat slices, add appropriate amount of sugar, fish sauce and licorice powder, stir well and set aside to marinate.

Shen Huaijin washed her hands, and pulled Li to play backgammon under the tree, enjoying the rare leisure time.They play this game often, and the odds are evenly matched.

The soft black hair next to the man's ears swayed slightly in the evening wind, exuding the refreshing and pleasant aroma of washing fruit. He smiled and chatted casually, asking about the situation of the three longhorned beasts.

The orc sitting opposite learned his lesson and set up a trap calmly, "They are all helping us carry resources according to the agreement. Freshman, as the leading female, is very close to us and has been restraining the remaining two males. .”

"Freshman?" Shen Huaijin was stunned for two seconds before realizing, "You have also named the longhorn beast."

"Well. I chose names to distinguish them, so I called them freshmen, sophomores, and juniors."

Shen Huaijin was speechless, "...obtaining is easier than us."

Wen Yanli laughed twice, and said with a serious face randomly: "Jin, have you thought about how to deal with them in the future?"

"The three little beasts get along very well with the tribe, and they already have a deep relationship. The three adult beasts are not stupid, they know what is the best choice."

As soon as the words fell, he found that Li Lian had become an unimpeded fourth son, and victory was already in sight.Shen Huaijin uttered a short cry of annoyance, "I won't play anymore, let's make meat jerky."

They played for almost an hour, and the meat slices had been marinated to taste. The two spread them out on a flat iron plate. The raw meat slices wrapped in egg wash and fish sauce looked crystal clear.

Shen Huaijin put the plate next to the fire, and let the flames dry the meat far away.

At this time, the night was dark, covering the entire land.In the dark sky is a round of bright full moon, exuding a faint brilliance, illuminating the whole world hazily, like a dream.

The moonlight reflected on the bottom of the valley like water, the earth was silent, everything was silent, only the crisp crackling sound of flames occasionally sounded.

While driving away annoying insects and ants, Shen Huaijin paid attention to the jerky.

The heat conductivity of the iron plate is extremely strong, and the animal meat begins to shrink under the high temperature, and the juice overflows a little bit, and the rich meat fragrance wafts in the air.

Under continuous roasting, the juice melted with powdered sugar and other seasonings gradually condenses, coating the meat slices with an alluring red color.

The dried meat gradually separated from the iron plate, Shen Huaijin sprinkled a little licorice powder on it, continued to bake for about 10 minutes, and took off the iron plate through the cloth.

At this time, the slices of meat have been glued together, the jerky has hardened and formed, the texture is clear, and the surface is shining under the moonlight. The meat is especially fragrant, making people salivate, and the two of them can't wait to rush up and taste it now.

Li cut a large piece of jerky into long strips and stacked them together, and the two of them each took a piece to taste.

Although the jerky is not air-dried, it still tastes chewy and full of fragrance, and the taste of fresh and sweet is particularly charming.

After eating two pieces, Shen Huaijin was still unsatisfied. She sucked her fingers and sighed, "It's too late, I can't eat more."

Glancing at the silver-haired orc who was crazily inhaling, he slapped directly, "Keep some, and share some with the cubs tomorrow."

"Understood!" Li stuffed the remaining half into his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's really delicious, I'll make it next time."

Shen Huaijin laughed at his greediness, but silently remembered the matter in his heart. He collected the remaining jerky, covered it with a linen cloth, and put it in a cool and ventilated place, waiting for the next day.

After washing up, the two of them wiped the bamboo mat with stream water before daring to lie down on it. Fanning each other, they fell asleep drowsily.

Ling and Ji have grown into small balls that can run freely, and turned into two small coal balls under the sun for many days.They come here to see Baa Baa from time to time, and they will also bring Big Ears, Dark Gray and Strong Three Little Beasts.

Shen Huaijin distributed the dried meat snatched from Li's mouth to them. The little briquettes had sweet dried meat in their mouths, and she was reluctant to eat more, so she handed the extra dried meat to the three little beasts.

Longhorns are herbivorous beasts, but eat meat very occasionally.

The little beast is full of trust in the cubs, and directly rolls the unfamiliar jerky into its mouth. After tasting the taste, it flaps its big ears excitedly, rolls up its nose to touch the cubs, and everyone rolls into a playful ball.

Shen Huaijin hid in the shade of the work shed and looked at the cubs who dared to play fearlessly in the sun. He felt that he was indeed an indigenous creature, and his ability to adapt to the harsh environment was much better than him.

Seeing them having fun, Shen Huaijin continued her work with confidence.

The intense heat and drought can't stop the tribe's crazy construction. Batches of materials are circulating everywhere, and the city walls built from both sides are approaching at a speed that can be seen by the naked eye.

Encouraged by their actions, Shen Huaijin burned bricks and tiles much faster, and black "walls" were built around the thatched cottages and work sheds.

Shen Huaijin carefully put the dried bricks into the kiln and set fire to the bricks.Seeing that the fire was getting stronger and the fireworks were orange-red, he began to seal the kiln to preserve the heat.

The weather was already hot, and the roof of the kiln was even hotter. After Shen Huaijin sealed the kiln, he took a few steps back and hid under the tree. He rubbed his hot face and let out a long breath.

After his body was a little shaded, he squinted his eyes and looked up at his own peach tree.Fortunately, there is a stream passing by here. In such a dry day, the two peach trees still bear a lot of fruit.Now the branches are full of plump fruit, only a little green is left on the tip of the peach, and it is estimated that it will be ripe and harvested soon.

Thinking of juicy peaches, Shen Huaijin couldn't help but salivate.

Speaking of harvest, the edamame in the field can already be harvested.Today's pods are plump, green and green in color, which is lovely. Shen Huaijin wants to pick a small batch and taste the delicious fresh edamame.

Don't worry about the rest, he estimates that it will turn yellow and harden in a short time, and then it can be used to grind soybean milk and save seeds.

Just do it.

Taking advantage of the lack of sunlight in the evening, Shen Huaijin went to the field and picked half a basket of edamame, and by the way, a lot of red peppers.

Some of these edamame are used to stew ribs, and the rest are directly boiled in salted edamame. At that time, they can be divided among the tribe members, and everyone can try it together.

Shen Huaijin soaked the picked bean pods in a basin and scrubbed each other, removing the dust and fluff on the skin, and then put the water aside.

The sharp heads of fresh bean pods are removed first, and a small part is shelled by Shen Huaijin to dig out the full bean grains inside. After peeling off the bright yellow film, put it aside for stewing soup.

He chopped the allocated ribs into small pieces, rinsed them with water, put them in a jar together with sliced ​​ginger and scallions, poured in an appropriate amount of water, and boiled them.

About 10 minutes later, the tank was bubbling, and light-colored blood froth floated on the edge.Shen Huaijin skimmed off the blood foam until the soup was clear, and continued to simmer over low heat.

At the other end, he put the washed edamame pods into the pot, poured in the water just enough to cover the edamame, and boiled on high heat until the edamame was almost half-cooked, then added an appropriate amount of salt and continued to cook until it was fully cooked.

There is no need to rush to remove the cooked edamame. Let the edamame continue to soak in the salt water until it cools down naturally. This way the edamame tastes more refreshing.

At this time, the pork ribs in the pot have been stewed with a meaty fragrance. Shen Huaijin fished out the green onion and ginger, then added the prepared edamame, poured in an appropriate amount of salt and fish sauce, and simmered for another 10 minutes.

When it is out of the pan, sprinkle some minced green onion and licorice, mixed with the taste of the ribs, and the aroma is overflowing.

The sun was setting and the sky was full of rays of light. The orcs and sub-beasts who had worked hard for a day also stopped their work, and smoke gradually rose from the other side of the stream.

Li Zai, who also rushed home, was urged by Shen Huaijin to wash up casually, then took a large pot of pork ribs stewed edamame and a large pot of salted edamame to the other side of the stream.

There are people coming and going in the square, and from time to time there are cubs chasing and playing around.When everyone saw Li carrying unfamiliar food, they poked their heads curiously.

"Jin, Li, what is this delicious? Why haven't I seen it before?"

Shen Huaijin greeted, and explained in a warm voice: "This is the edamame that I brought back from the Dasen tribe. I have been planting it in my own field, and now it is ripe. Pick some for everyone to try."

"That's great! Let's have dinner today!"

Qi happened to pass by and was overjoyed to hear this.The orcs and sub-beasts who were in charge of cooking also quickly speeded up and cooked fresh meat dishes.

It didn't take long for the steaming food to be served, and everyone sat around to eat.

Shen Huaijin picked half a basket of fresh edamame and cooked it three times. Now there is a big pot full, and everyone can eat as much as they want.

Seeing an orc picking up a bean pod, touching it and then throwing it into his mouth, Shen Huaijin quickly stopped it.

"No, you can't eat the shell of this edamame, just eat the beans inside."

After hearing what he said, everyone began to peel the bean shells clumsily.Shen Huaijin himself is an old hand, with a light push with his front teeth, the plump beans were squeezed into his mouth, he chewed twice, the edamame tasted sweet and soft, and it was very tender to eat.

Applause and praise gradually came from around, and after a while, he recollected the taste in his mouth and said with emotion: "Jin, these beans have a fragrance and are quite delicious. You don't have to be busy with the ones left in the field, I will spare some time Will pick it up."

Shen Huaijin scooped up two bowls of pork ribs and edamame soup to share with him. Hearing this, he hurriedly said, "Don't pluck them all for me now. I will pick the remaining edamame after it turns yellow."

Li was taken aback, and asked doubtfully, "Do you want to keep so many kinds?"

"No." Shen Huaijin shook her head, showing a small smile, full of anticipation, "Part of the old beans are planted, and part is used to grind soybean milk and make tofu."

Knowing that the other party didn't know about these foods, Shen Huaijin patted him on the shoulder and smiled with a pair of small canine teeth, "Those are delicious foods, you will know when the time comes."

His expression looked so cute to Li, the silver-haired orc smiled softly, "Okay, I'll wait."

Shen Huaijin put a piece of pork ribs into his mouth, the meat was stewed till it was soft and rotten, and it separated from the bone with a light sip, and the juice splashed when chewed, leaving a mouthful of fragrance.In particular, there are bones that can be chewed in the ribs, which are full of collagen. The fragrance of bone marrow mixed with the fragrance of beans is endless aftertaste.

It was so delicious that he couldn't help but let out a sigh.
