Chapter 214: I Can't Afford to Eat!
People's luck is uncertain, when Yingbao filmed "Palace Lock Agarwood", she didn't expect that the horse would suddenly be frightened and fall off the horse, otherwise she would not insist on not using a stand-in.
What if there is historical inertia, and this time and space is not brushed off the horse without her, but she falls off the tree because she is climbing?
When the time comes, he will really regret dying!
……
"From the afternoon, we have to be self-sufficient, we need to work to earn money to buy food, and if we don't work, we have no food!"
Li Zhe looked at the girls who were eating green dates in front of him, frolicking and making inappropriate things, and sighed secretly, "The team is not easy to bring!" (Nanny is not good!)"
The task assigned by the program team to Li Zhe and the seven girls was to collect Chinese cabbage.
Li Zhe drove a tractor and carried seven girls to the farm again, and the eight of them changed into the work clothes provided by the program team, put on hats, talked and laughed with the staff, and came to a cabbage field.
The cabbages are neatly arranged, growing big and very fresh.
Chinese cabbage is also known as "cabbage", "cabbage", "woad", etc., and is called "Shao cuisine" in Cantonese.
Baicai is not as good as Baicai, Baicai is the king of vegetables in China, with a long history of planting, and it is the "housekeeping dish" in the northern winter.
Chinese cabbage is sown after the corn harvest in autumn and harvested in early winter, with high yield and shelf-stable storage.
In the difficult period when transportation is inconvenient and there are no out-of-season vegetables, Chinese cabbage can be said to be the only vegetable that can be eaten in the entire northern winter.
A family often needs to store hundreds of catties of cabbage to cope with the winter, so cabbage has evolved in China to stew, stir-fry, pickle, and mix various cooking methods.
……
Li Zhe took the newly found information and popularized the knowledge to the girls.
"Alright, let's get to work! Li Zhe roughly estimated how this piece of land also has more than an acre of cabbage, and at this time it was only less than 2 hours before it got dark (it was almost dark at about 5 o'clock in the afternoon in the northern winter), if he relied on one of his main labors and did not cheat (let the farm staff help during the pause in filming), it would be almost impossible to finish the harvest.
Under normal circumstances, the yield of Chinese cabbage per mu is more than 1,000, about 6 to 7,000 kilograms, and if the water and fertilizer are sufficient, it can even reach tens of thousands of kilograms, that is, 10 tons.
Li Zhe took a knife to chop vegetables in front, Yingbao, Yang Mi, and Yang Zai followed behind to load the cabbage into the cart with a back basket, and Zheng Shuang, Kan Qingzi, Nazha, and Liu Mengmeng pushed the cart to transport the collected cabbage to the warehouse for storage.
Everyone has a clear division of labor, laughing while working, occasionally complaining and making jokes, but they are not tired.
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, the sky gradually darkened.
As Li Zhe expected, the task was not completed, and the eight of them only received less than half of the cabbage on more than one acre of land.
After being inspected by the farm staff, they were only given 2 points. (out of 10 points)
1 point can be exchanged for 10 yuan from the program group, that is, Li Zhe and the seven girls were busy all afternoon and only earned 20 yuan.
The eight of them were going to count on the 20 dollars for dinner.
"What should I do? 20 yuan for eight people is definitely not enough. ”
Not only is there too little money, but the prices of farms are too high.
A pound of rice costs 4 yuan, a pound of tomatoes costs 6 yuan, a pound of eggplant costs 5 yuan, a pound of beans costs 8 yuan, an egg costs 1 yuan, and as for a pound of pork, it costs 24 yuan, they can't afford it at all.
In fact, in fact, the price of ingredients is not expensive, now that it is winter, vegetables are planted in greenhouses out of season, and the vegetables and meat, eggs and milk in the farm are all natural and original, and the price will only be more expensive on the ingredients.
"If you only buy rice, you can buy 5 catties, which is enough to eat, but we can't just eat white rice, right?" Yang Mi said.
"I looked at the price list, and the Chinese cabbage we just harvested is the cheapest, only one dollar per catty, and we can buy 3 catties of rice and a Chinese cabbage. Kan Qingzi analyzed.
"Actually, we can buy instant noodles, and we can buy 10 packs of instant noodles for 20 yuan, which is enough for eight of us. Zheng Shuang proposed.
Instant noodle?
That's barely a good idea.
Instant noodles come with a seasoning packet, and the taste is much better than the tasteless stir-fried cabbage.
"I want braised beef noodles. ”
"Shrimp fish plate noodles. ”
"Chicken noodles stewed with shiitake mushrooms. ”
The girls almost decided to eat and began to report their tastes.
"We worked all afternoon, and we ate instant noodles, which was too miserable!" Yang Tsai sighed.
"Otherwise, we'd better kill that chicken, right? White rice, stewed old hen, it makes my mouth water just thinking about it. ”
Hen, "Cluck!" "There's always someone trying to hurt me."
The girls' eyes lit up when they heard this, this is really a good idea!
Tempted by the food, their compassion was shaken.
"Li Zhe, do you have any good ideas?" Ying Bao set his eyes on Li Zhe.
She didn't want to eat instant noodles, but she didn't want to kill the old hen either, so she could only see if Li Zhe (the breeder) had any good solutions.
The seven girls also looked at Li Zhe, waiting for him to come up with an idea.
Li Zhe smiled. "Don't worry, I won't let you eat instant noodles. He said "you" in his mouth, but his eyes only looked at Ying Bao.
"The guy who is heavy on color and light on friends. Yang Mi rolled her eyes and complained.
Ying Bao's little face turned red, Kan Qingzi, Zheng Shuang, Yang Zai, Nazha, and Liu Mengmeng all laughed.
"Does Yang Mi have a conflict with Li Zhe, why do you keep staring at him?"
"It should be because of love and hate!"
"The scandalous ex-girlfriend, the two of them have had a leg nine times out of ten!"
If Yang Mi watched these gossip barrages, she would definitely go crazy.
Got a leg?
She kicked him in the leg and it was almost there!
Li Zhe pretended not to hear, he didn't know this little fox in general.
"No need to stew old hens, we'll have a barbecue tonight. ”
Eating barbecue?
"But where did we get the ingredients?" Yang Tsai said curiously.
"I have my own way, just listen to my arrangement, and make sure you have a barbecue tonight. Li Zhe didn't explain much and began to make arrangements.
"Xiao Shuang, Qingzi, you two take 10 yuan to buy some eggplant, shiitake mushrooms, leeks, cabbage, kelp and other vegetables suitable for barbecue, and by the way, ask for a little cumin, pepper, salt and pepper and other seasonings. ”
"Yingbao, Sister Mi, Nazha, Mengmeng, you come with me. Li Zhe led the 4 girls to a sweet potato field that had already been hoeed.
"Brother Xiao Zhe, what are you bringing us here for?" Yang Zai looked at the clearing, puzzled.
"I know, I'm here to pick up sweet potatoes. Ying Bao reacted.
"But everyone has taken away the sweet potatoes, where can we find the sweet potatoes?" Yang Mi wondered.
Li Zhe: "...!"
Little sister, before the sweet potatoes are taken home, you go to the field to dig the sweet potatoes, is that called stealing sweet potatoes?
