Chapter 14 Making Saltwater Peanuts (Collect, Vote)

After picking the peanuts, they poured the peanuts into a large iron basin with a diameter of about one meter, poured tap water into the iron basin with a water pipe, and went to clean up the mess in the hall.

The peanut vines have to be bundled up and placed in the backyard for chickens and ducks to peck at some smaller shriveled peanuts, and after a few days, after the peanut vines are completely dried, they can also be used to make fires.

After disposing of the peanut vines, they cleaned the hall and cleaned the soil from the floor before going to the yard to scrub the peanuts in the large iron basin.

The case of the peanut is uneven and stained with a lot of soil, which makes it difficult to clean, and it takes three times of water to completely wash the peanut.

After washing, pour the peanuts into a large aluminum pot with both ears, and then add the flattened garlic, star anise, and cinnamon.

In this way, there is still a shortage of mountain spring water and mint leaves.

There is mint leaf vegetable garden, but mountain spring water is not available in the mountains.

Chen Yang went to see Xiao Qian first, and after confirming that the little guy slept soundly, he went to the vegetable garden with a flashlight and grabbed a handful of mint leaves, washed them, and put them in a large aluminum pot.

Now, it's just a mountain spring water.

He came to the hall again, looked at Xiao Qian, and was worried in his heart, but he had to find two large plastic pots from the storage room and prepare to go into the mountain to load water.

He called softly twice to the mountain: "Mountain, mountain." ”

Dashan immediately opened his eyes, stood up, and looked at his master with a full face.

Chen Yang explained: "I'll go into the mountains to decorate some water, are you watching Xiao Qian at home?"

Dashan nodded.

Chen Yang said: "I'll lock all the doors, you don't run out of the backyard, okay?"

The mountain nodded again.

Chen Yang was still a little uneasy, and continued: "If someone comes in to steal the child, remember to bite him to death. ”

Although I am not sure if such a small mountain has that much power, this is the only thing Chen Yang can do at the moment.

His family was so poor that it was clear that no one would come in and steal money. If a bad guy really comes in, it can only be a child stealer.

Maybe it's unlikely that this kind of thing will happen in such a remote mountainous area with inconvenient transportation, but in the mind of a dad, the worst will always be expected.

Dashan still nodded.

I don't know if it understands it, or if it will habitually nod at the master's words.

But there is no way at the moment, Chen Yang can only lock Xiao Qian and Dashan at home first, and then go into the mountain to fill the spring water.

Fortunately, the mountains are full of springs, such as the source of his family's water pipe.

Wrong.

Chen Yang thought about it with half-squinted eyes, the water in his family's water pipe was directly brought down from a spring halfway up the mountainside after digging a pit to store water, so the water he drank at home should also be regarded as mountain spring water.

"Turn on the system, is the water flowing out of my water pipe considered 'living water from the source of the mountain stream'?" Chen Yang thought silently in his heart.

"Count. The system immediately replied with a word.

Chen Yang was taken aback, he didn't expect the high cold system to reply so quickly.

"Don't lie to me, if the peanuts can't be sold, you'll have to pay half of the responsibility. Chen Yang said.

It was as if the system had crashed again, and no more sound was made.

Well, when I talk a lot.

However, since the system says forget it, it must also be counted.

A loaf of bread is transported to other cities, and as long as it has not spoiled and the essence is the same, it is still good bread.

But if it spoils during transportation, it can't be considered good bread.

The same is true of the living water at the source of the mountain stream, after flowing out of the spring, it flows directly into the water tank through the water pipe, then it is still mountain spring water, but if it flows from the stream all the way to the distance, and has experienced various twists and turns on the way, and has suffered various pollution, then it naturally cannot be regarded as mountain spring water.

If the essence has changed, it has to be a different matter.

Chen Yang happily put the two plastic pots back into the storage room, then returned to the yard, scooped a few spoonfuls of water from the water tank with a water spoon and put them into the large aluminum pot with both ears.

The unique saltwater peanut skill card states that all ingredients must be mixed together, soaked for at least five hours, and then boiled over a firewood fire for at least two hours to make a unique saltwater peanut.

Therefore, after filling the large aluminum pot with water, he could not make a fire to boil the peanuts, at least he had to soak the peanuts until two or three o'clock in the middle of the night before they could be boiled.

He thought about it, if he soaked these peanuts now, he would get up at three o'clock tomorrow morning to light a fire and boil peanuts, and then try to go to County D before seven o'clock to sell them at the school gate of the key middle school.

Those sixteen, seventeen or eighteen-year-old high school students have to be busy studying for the super competitive college entrance examination, and they have to find a partner for themselves who are just starting to fall in love, and their nutrition will definitely not be able to keep up. Peanuts are rich in nutrients, and if they taste better than other foods and are inexpensive, they will definitely sell well.

Don't look at those students who don't have income yet, but in the area of 'snacks', they are definitely the main consumers.

This can be seen from the various snack stalls at the school gate and the various powder shops and fast food restaurants at the school gate.

But at the school gate, there must be more people selling food than stationery.

After having an idea in his heart, Chen Yang took another bath, then set the alarm clock and went to bed early.

There was no dream all night, and it was not until the alarm clock at three o'clock woke him up from weak to strong that he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up immediately.

In the dim nightlight, Xiao Qian lay on his back, the thin blanket was kicked to his heels, and he pressed it with two small short feet.

Chen Yang first helped Xiao Qian lightly cover the blanket, and then slowly got out of bed without waking Xiao Qian, put on slippers, quietly opened the door of the house, lit the courtyard lamp, and then walked into the kitchen and began to make a fire to boil peanuts.

The skill of making a fire must be 'small first and then big'. Thin, dry firewood is used as a guide for the fire, and after it has completely burned in the earthen stove, the coarse firewood can be added.

After the thick firewood in the earthen stove had been completely burned, Chen Yang had to start preparing the necessary items for the stall.

To sell saltwater peanuts, you have to move the amphora with you, in that case, you need a small table to place the amphora.

After all, it is something to eat, and it always feels unhygienic when placed directly on the ground.

I found a small wooden table, cleaned it with wire balls, and then went to find twenty or thirty colorful plastic bags. These plastic bags were all saved up after I came back from shopping, but I didn't expect them to come in handy now.

If you have a table and a plastic bag, you're missing a scale.

It is impossible for Chen Yang to have an electronic scale at home, but there is an old-fashioned scale rod.

After finding the old-fashioned weighing rod, it seems that all the necessary items for selling peanuts are ready.

Because the weather is still very hot, there is no need to bring an earthen stove to keep the peanuts warm or heat, so the earthen stove is exempted, and the charcoal is also exempted.

Next, it's time to prepare the little dry things.

Milk powder bottle warm boiled water,

Diaper strap toilet water,

Pants, hats, small blankets,

There was also a bottle of boiled water.

Once you've got these things ready, pack them all in your backpack and make breakfast for breakfast, and you'll have to pack some cold leftovers in a stainless steel lunch box for lunch.

When he went out, in order not to look too cold, he also fried an egg and covered it with cold leftovers.
