Beginning Backpack [Farming]

The cold season is approaching soon, and Shen Huaijin hastened to harvest the second batch of potatoes and edamame. Taking advantage of the sunshine in the last two or three days of the off-season, the edamame is dried and stored in the cellar.

Because Shen Huaijin didn't pay as much attention to the second batch as the first batch, the harvest was also less. There were nineteen baskets of potatoes and fourteen baskets of soybeans.

Despite the decline in numbers, overall production is still high.

According to the agreement, Shen Huaijin sent two baskets to An Ge, and took back a basket of taro from him by the way.

At this point, Shen Huaijin's food storage operation came to an end. In addition to the food counted before and the second batch of newly harvested potatoes and soybeans, he also saved some small quantities of pumpkins and chestnuts, and kept them for occasional changes.

As for the stalks and potato stalks left before, they were also properly piled up next to the animal pen, and used as rations for the hairy animals in the cold season.

It can be said that Shen Huaijin's harvest is full, so it is natural to celebrate it, and it is also to honor the promise that he will invite everyone to eat rice.

Coincidentally, the cold season is approaching, and the orcs are busy hunting, and the longhorn beasts also need to eat more food to preserve energy, so as to ensure that the next cold sleep will not be affected, so the construction of the tribe has temporarily come to an end, and everyone is now in the valley, holding a banquet It's also convenient.

And he pounded rice with water for many days, and he also hoarded enough rice grains, enough for everyone to have a full meal before the cold season officially came.

When Shen Huaijin told the news, everyone naturally agreed with it, and rushed to help.

Because Shen Huaijin still has the most fresh potatoes and edamame on hand, so in addition to rice, he plans to pay attention to using these two kinds of grains to cook banquet food. Of course, the three male hairy beasts can also be roasted together.

The dishes he ordered for the banquet were braised pork, hot and sour potato shreds, stewed animal meat with potatoes, stewed river fish with tofu, stewed tofu with shrimp, fried prawns in oil, and roasted whole lamb.

Listening to him reporting the names of the dishes one by one, everyone seemed to be able to smell the aroma that filled the entire valley.

An couldn't help taking a sip, and said excitedly: "Jin, are you going to make so many delicious things this time?"

Shen Huaijin nodded as it should, "Of course, everyone has helped me so much before, and it will be the cold season soon, why don't we have a good meal?"

"It's too much consumption for you, we should all bring some food." Yan said calmly.

Hearing what he said, the crowd became a little lively, and everyone chattered.

"I brought a lot of sweet potatoes!"

"Jin, I picked a big-eared beast's tenderloin for you, it's the best!"

"Hey, Jin, I just brought a bag of salt over here."

……

It turned out that everyone came prepared, Shen Huaijin smiled and said: "Stop being polite, everyone hurry up to help, we can eat early."

"Jin is right!" An greeted everyone, "It is estimated that a lot of tofu will be used today, everyone help to grind the soy milk."

Everyone responded one after another, put down their things and washed their hands, and followed Shen Huaijin's command to divide the work in an orderly manner, some killed fish and animals, some ground the soy milk, and some cleaned the ingredients.

Braised pork in brown sauce, stewed river fish with tofu, deep-fried prawns and roasted whole lamb are all made by Shen Huaijin with everyone. There are already Asian beasts who can do it for you. Shen Huaijin only needs to be in charge of unfamiliar dishes.

The hot and sour potato shreds are the most convenient and quick to fry, and they are placed at the end. It takes time to peel the shrimps out, so Shen Huaijin steamed the rice first, and then planned to make the potato stewed meat first.

The big-eared animal meat and potatoes have been cleaned by the sub-beasts who are responsible for helping them, and then cut into pieces. Shen Huaijin first blanch the animal meat until it changes color, then remove and drain.Then heat the oil in the pan, add ginger and garlic to sauté until fragrant, add the pieces of animal meat and stir-fry until the meat is fragrant.

He poured a sufficient amount of cold boiled animal meat into the pot, then sprinkled in chili slices and licorice powder, boiled it, skimmed off the foam, and poured the animal meat into the large pot together with the clear soup with fat floating in it , add salt, and simmer over medium heat until the meat of the big-eared beast begins to crisp.

After the tender yellow potato cubes were put into the bubbling, mellow broth, Shen Huaijin sprinkled salt and a little fish sauce, covered it and continued to simmer over low heat.

At this moment, the sub-beasts on the other side shouted loudly: "Jin, Jin! We peeled all the shrimps, come and see!"

Hearing this, Shen Huaijin asked the neighbors to help watch the fire, and hurried to the other side.I saw crystal clear shrimps piled up on the pottery plates one by one, and the heads, feet, shells and shrimp lines of the prawns had been removed by the sub-beasts.

"Everyone's hands are really skillful, the shrimps are peeled quickly and well." Shen Huaijin did not hesitate to praise him.

"It's good that Jin is satisfied!"

Shen Huaijin raised the corners of her lips slightly, with a smile in her eyes, "Of course I'm satisfied, let's go, everyone, let me make braised tofu with shrimps."

The tofu had just been made by the nimble orcs and sub-beasts, and it was placed by the stove for later use. After Shen Huaijin took it, he cut it into pieces, and then put it together with other prepared scallions and licorice powder.

Egg whites and starch were added to the fresh and clear shrimps in turn. Everyone mixed them with clean hands and put them aside to marinate.Shen Huaijin took a new bowl and stirred some water and starch for later use.

The white, tender and greasy pieces of animal oil melted in the pot. When the oil was hot, Shen Huaijin poured the shrimps into the pot and quickly fried them. After the color changed, the oil was poured out.He grabbed the scallions and licorice powder that were prepared on the side, threw them into the pot, and used the remaining oil to stir-fry them until they became fragrant.

With everyone's movements, the smells of soy milk, stewed fish, and barbecue slowly spread, and the sound of stir-frying on both sides of the stream continued, and the scene was still full of enthusiasm in the increasingly cold season.

Shen Huaijin retracted her gaze in satisfaction, poured clean water into the fragrant pot, boiled it, put it into soft, tender and white meat and simmered for a while, then poured the shrimps into the pot, seasoned with salt, carefully Stir the two evenly.

Seeing that the frying was almost done, he then poured the water starch prepared early in the morning into the pot, boiled it again and turned off the heat, then sprinkled with green onion, put it on a plate and put it on the table.

The stewed meat at that end was almost as good. The potatoes turned soft and waxy, and they were crushed in half when poked lightly with chopsticks, and the animal meat was completely rotten.Shen Huaijin collected the juice with a big fire, and also sprinkled green onion for decoration.

Among all the aromas of meat and seasonings, the unique sweetness of rice came in, and Shen Huaijin, who was busy with the next dish, was fascinated. He took a deep breath and smiled at the people next to him: "It's really delicious. hungry."

He quickly fried hot and sour potato shreds, and after putting them on a plate, he distributed them to several places together with other dishes.

There are a variety of dishes on the table, including juicy stewed meat with potatoes, oily and attractive braised pork and deep-fried prawns, light and delicious tofu stewed river fish and shrimp stewed tofu. The whole sheep is still sizzling, dripping oil, exuding a domineering fragrance.

Spoon after spoonful of crystal-clear and plump rice was served to everyone, accompanied by a sweet aroma.

Shen Huaijin took a deep breath and brought a large bowl of rice.He didn't pick up any vegetables, and first gave a chopstick of rice to his mouth to chew slowly, enjoying the fruits of the hard work of the past six months.

The rice is steaming hot, and the taste is soft and glutinous with some elasticity. After chewing for a long time, it will be full of rice fragrance and sweetness.

Shen Huaijin's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to grab some food.The braised pork is fat but not greasy, sweet and delicious, the shrimps are springy, the potatoes are soft and glutinous, the tofu is tender, the fish soup is delicious, the shredded potatoes are refreshing, and the roasted whole lamb is golden and buttery, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

With this hard-won rice, Shen Huaijin only felt that it was so delicious that it was indescribable.His appetite soared, not only did he eat two bowls of rice, but he didn't even want to miss the leftover braised pork broth, so he just took some rice and mixed it to eat.

The rice grains dipped in the thick soup are also stained with sugar, making them even more crystal-clear and moist. It's so delicious that people can't help biting their tongues off.

Of course, in terms of appetite, Shen Huaijin is naturally not as good as the natives. He finally lost his battle by touching his round belly, leaning against Li's side, watching everyone continue to cook in a lively manner.

Just when he was drowsy, the rock that was originally in another place came over and sat down beside him.

Shen Huaijin pulled himself together, sat up straight and looked at him, "Yan, do you need me?"

Yan didn't know where to start for a while, and he hesitated to speak.Since returning from the fair, Shen Huaijin found that he seemed to be aging, and now his face was more wrinkled, and his face was more serious when he was expressionless.

Shen Huaijin smiled to ease the atmosphere, "Yan, is there anything else you can't tell me?"

With his words, Yan slowly opened his mouth and said: "Jin, because of the weather, everyone's harvest in this hot season and low season is far less than last time. But you, on the contrary, gained more. These I saw it all, and only then did I know why you want to farm the land yourself, and I also understand the reason why you hit the farm tools first when you get the iron tools."

Yan paused for a while, and under Shen Huaijin's encouraging eyes, he cautiously said, "Jin, I hope you can bring the members of the tribe to farm together."

"I just wanted to talk about this." Shen Huaijin said with a smile, "What's so difficult? I have experience, so I'll just take everyone with me. Yan, don't worry, I'm also very happy that you can farm with me. By the way, do you have any plans to plant anything?"

"I want to grow something that is filling and delicious, such as the potatoes and rice." Yan answered quickly this time.

"That's it." Shen Huaijin murmured, "Then my potato fields should be planted with pumpkins, and those rice fields should be used as experimental fields for breeding, and see if there is any chance to increase the yield."

Yan didn't understand what he meant by "experimental field" and "breeding", and he still had his own worries, "Jin, but in this case, there must be sub-beasts or orcs who can't go to collect or hunt because of farming. That's not fair."

Shen Huaijin's mind was still a little fuzzy, but he almost thought of a solution, pondered for a moment and said: "It's okay, I can solve this, just give me some time to think about it."

With his guarantee, Yan's heart stabilized, wrinkles appeared at the end of his eyes, but the nicks between his brows disappeared.

Almost after the dinner party, the weather immediately cooled down. Shen Huaijin hastily surrounded the furry animal enclosure with thatch-made wind resistance, and increased their water supply.

The beasts in the Eastern Continent basically want to sleep, and the longhorn beasts are no exception. The tribe arranges them to sleep in caves, and temporarily blocks the entrance of the cave with boulders.There is also some hay in the cave for the longhorns to wake up and eat.

In the howling wind, Han Ji set foot on Linshanyuan.
