But at the beginning, they thought that these skilled people had a good relationship with Sister-in-law Ge, and the skin could be pinched and slowly collected by Qingshan Town, so it would definitely be no problem. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Now, it's too late to say anything. However, she told them at the beginning that she had only been working with them for two years. Now it seems that it would be good not to lose money this year, but I am afraid that it will not be possible to do it for another year.

However, Li Qin didn't say such a thing, he said it earlier, they didn't listen, and if he said it later, it would be a bit of a joke, and Li Qin didn't plan to ask for it.

But Sister-in-law Ge still can't get over this hurdle, and she still said there: "Your eldest brother too, two days ago, I went to the neighboring town to collect skins, and last year I was able to collect two big cars, and this year I also found an acquaintance, so I just got back more than 200 sheets, and I don't know if I can do it." ”

"Let it be. Li Qin could only comfort him like this, "Now that Uncle Ge is the leader, it is inevitable that you will have to worry more about the affairs in this town." Big Brother has a wide connection, and everyone has to let Brother Ge match. When the time comes, this side will always have to give up. ”

"Alas, I understand what you said, and your eldest brother said the same thing. Originally, I was also thinking, and if I was still doing it well this year, I would continue to do it. Looking at the situation in front of you, next year, it's enough to choke!" Then he thought of Li Qin's previous words, "Recently, a lot of people have contacted your eldest brother, which means that they want us to sell all the leather goods to them, and the price must be higher than the original one." Your eldest brother also said that he wanted to know when his father would come out. ”

"I see, I'll have to wait until I get out of the mountain. Li Qin said, "If Brother Ge is not at ease, he will go in with the person who carries the work next time to discuss." Anyway, Uncle Ge is newly appointed, and everyone has been delayed for more than a month, what Uncle Ge means is that there is no very special thing recently, and everyone will work hard to get more things out at the end of the year. ”

Sister-in-law Ge naturally understands Uncle Ge's situation, "Alas, sometimes I think about it, my father is so old, and I don't know how many years I can do it." Originally, I wanted him to work for a few years and then come out to enjoy Qingfu, but the business on our side did not do well, which made him suffer so much. It's a shame to let Xiaoyun go in to accompany them this year, otherwise we will feel even more uncomfortable. ”

When he came out of the Ge family, Li Qin was a little stunned. The family relationship of the Ge family has always been her envy. However, every time she gets along with the Ge family, she misses her relatives even more. Thinking that Du Heng had already returned to the northwest, Li Ren should have seen her letter. Does he miss her?

The next day, Li Qin went to the cup again and taught Hu Ding a few desserts that could be put away and handled, among which the most complex and beautiful one was lotus cake.

The lotus crisp style is beautiful, and it is exactly the same as the blooming lotus flower. In addition, the lotus flower is a symbol of Buddhism, and it is the object of everyone's pursuit. It's just that it is located in the northern frontier, and there is no such plant as a lotus here. But this did not delay the sales of lotus cakes, after all, most of the dignitaries and military masters in Qingshan Town and even the entire Xiangyang County were not northerners. They have seen lotus flowers, so there is no need to worry about this market not being opened.

Nowadays, the more popular dessert in the north is shortbread, of course, this public is not ordinary people, but everyone gives gifts to each other between entering and leaving, and the more common one is shortbread. The shortbread is usually a small piece the size of the palm of the hand, which is used to make puff pastry and oily skin, which is wrapped in oily skin and rolled into long strips with a rolling pin. After rolling up the long strips, then use a rolling pin to roll it out and roll it again, so three or four times, and then like wrapping rice balls, put the filling with sugar fried sesame seeds or bean paste filling inside, wrap it tightly, and then put a thin layer of oil skin on the outside, then wrap it tightly and flatten, and print the treasure number of making this shortbread on the smooth side, and then put it in the pot to burn. After branding, the outside looks smooth and beautiful, but when you touch it, the oily skin on the outside that has hardened will crumble. At this time, you should gently pick it up with one hand and put it to your mouth, and hold the other hand under your mouth. One bite down, live up to this name, fragrant and crispy, crispy to the mouth of the slag, fragrant to the aftertaste.

In previous years, such shortbread was sold for two taels of silver in a box, but there were only eight pieces in a box. In addition to the good-looking packaging, the quality of this itself is indeed worth the price.

Nowadays in Qingshan Town, there are two shops that make delicious shortbread, one is a dessert shop that started with shortbread, and the other is a restaurant that has always been on the same level as Cup Mozhu. It is said that the master who will make shortbread in the wine is the former apprentice of the previous dessert shop. After completing his studies, he didn't continue to work in that house according to the rules of the industry, but was dug up by the wine at a large price, and then became the signboard of the wine.

The shortbread is delicious, but Li Qin does not plan to go back to this path. In fact, in Li Qin's memory, at this time, it was no longer popular to eat fragrant shortbread in the capital, but to eat lotus crisp.

Like shortbread, lotus crisp is also made with a combination of puff pastry and oil skin, but it has an additional process of adding coloring than shortbread.

Li Qin uses red pigment, which can be used in making a lot of food, so it is not unusual in this back kitchen.

Li Qin first mixed lard and flour, without adding a drop of water, and directly kneaded it into a puff pastry ball with a smooth appearance, but in fact it felt a little fine sand, and then used flour, water, sugar and lard to poke the meat into a very tough water and oil skin. After that, the water and oil skin is divided into two, and one of them is rubbed evenly with red pigment to become a red water and oil skin ball.

After doing this, Li Qin put them aside and let them rise for two quarters of an hour.

After proofing, Li Qin divided them into several equal portions, wrapped the puff pastry in oily skin, and made a ball. In this way, the number of red dumplings is the same as the number of hundred dumplings.

The next production method is exactly the same as that of the shortbread, except that when the shortbread blank is flattened for the last time, Li Qin presses a red cake and a white cake together, and then completely compacts and fits the surrounding sides, at this time, you can put bean paste filling inside. Half of the red is put on the outside, half of the white is put on the outside, and after wrapping the bean paste, Li Qin turned the mouth downward, and then slowly pulled three knives with a knife on the top of these doughs, so that the outer skin is broken, showing a natural state of deep in the middle and shallow on both sides.

At this point, it's time to heat the oil. After heating the oil pan to a bubbling state, Li Qin put the cut dumplings inside.

Li Qin tossed for more than an hour, from the beginning of the opening in the morning, everyone saw her and began to work, and finally reached the final step, even if there were some guests outside, everyone hurried over to see what the divine lotus cake looked like by Li Qin.

I saw a small dough that had been pulled three times into the pot, first honestly closed, but as the small dough was gradually heated with the oil temperature, and then I saw that from the knife edge that was pulled, it expanded a little bit, and then it quickly exploded, layer by layer, as if it was a trick, in front of everyone's eyes, a pink flower quickly bloomed, just like the lotus flower in the mural of Xinglong Temple!

The northerners have always been rough, a shortbread, everyone already feels that it is very troublesome, otherwise it can't be sold at such an expensive price, but after everyone sees the lotus crisp, they immediately feel that the shortbread is nothing compared to it!

Everyone really couldn't control themselves, and exclaimed frequently, no one expected that they would see the whole process of flowers blooming with their own eyes!

That's right, it's the whole process of the flower's blooming, isn't the little dough that has been pulled three times just like a budding flower? After being put into the oil pot, the bud blooms quickly! They have never even seen the actual process of flowering! Now that Li Qin has demonstrated it in front of them, how can they not be excited!

It's been four days since I got back to the mountains from town.

Life is back on track, except for three more clothed mounds and a new grave of Boss Qi in the mountain, everything is no different from previous years.

During this time, the forest frog went down the mountain again to prepare for hibernation, so the two endured the north wind every night to go down the mountain to stop the toad. There are more forest frogs here than in the spring, and it is easy to pick up three or five hundred in one night. It's just that this time they don't pick up the toad oil, because the weather is too cold, and the toad oil is not dry. Second, there are too many of them, and I really don't have time to pick them up.

The two of them worked on it for almost a month, and when the weather was getting colder and colder, and the leaves on the trees had already fallen, leaving only a few on the tips of the trees, and they had already caught countless toads when they resisted the north wind mixed with snow particles.

Yu Fei dug a big pit in the creek in front of his house, and Li Qin knocked all the toads into the cloth bag and put them into the water one by one. At this time, the water was already very cold, and it happened that after the forest frog went down, it hibernated directly. Not even a scream.

The toad oil of the forest frog is also called snow clam oil, which is a holy product for the body, nourishing yin and aphrodisiac, suitable for all ages. The fresh forest frog is stewed with sauce, mellow and fragrant, the frog legs are tight and elastic, and the frog oil is fragrant and smooth, which is the object of everyone's pursuit. There are many major restaurants and restaurants outside the mountain that want fresh forest frogs, and as long as they are taken out, they don't worry about sales at all. And Li Qin also asked the price before, the female leopard (female frog) at this time can be sold for about 70 wen a piece, and the male dog (male frog) is about 20 wen a piece, the reason why the price is different is because the toad oil in the belly of the female leopard is worth a lot.

With the end of the frog hunting, the day will really enter winter.

Now the things that are hunted can be frozen outside, so Yu Fei doesn't have to work so hard to deal with the gifts when he comes back every day, but has a lot more time, instead of Li Qin, pour water on those fungus, and then heat the bottom of the stove to keep it hot for a day.

With Yu Fei's help, Li Qin's life is much easier, in addition to making some soles and insoles, she can also find time to make new clothes for both of them.

Uncle Ge, the leader, did a good job, re-planning a route almost every few days, and the personnel distribution was more detailed, although the days were much shorter after the winter, and many animals were winter again, but the results were even better than in previous years. So everyone praised Ge Changqing.

Ge Changqing became the leader, relatively speaking, Yu Fei was even more valued in the team. Whenever there is any important work, Ge Changqing will also ask for his opinion, and his opinion will often be adopted. Once or twice, everyone also said that this stupid boy was a coincidence, but there were many times, and everyone had to admit that although Yu Fei was a little wooden, he was still very talented in hunting.

However, in the end, it was cold, and even if Yu Fei and the others had hunted more things than in previous years, they were still not half a star worse than autumn. Autumn is the golden season for hunting, but this autumn, something happened in the mountains, and it was delayed for more than a month, so even if there are more things caught at this time, for ordinary people, it can't make up for the loss of the previous month.

The snow outside has already fallen a few times, and the snow can be stored on the ground, when there is nothing to do, Ge Xiaoyun will come over to play with Li Qin, but every time she comes, she always holds the lynx, at this time, Li Qin and her are one lynx, while keeping warm, while rubbing their heads, having a lot of fun. It's just that I don't know if I'm a little annoyed by the two of them, these two guys are getting more and more homeless.

Yu Fei said that lynx like to go out to hunt at night, but his family let them raise them, and they don't go out at night, so they sleep next to them, and they snort and make earth-shaking noises, so people can't do anything about them. Of course, when the weather is warm, they still like to go out for a walk during the day, and when it is cold, they are like cats and stay in the house without moving. So Li Qin suspected that it might be that she and Ge Xiaoyun tortured them a little hard, so these two guys were going out earlier and returning later and later.

However, Li Qin didn't have to worry too much, because after all, no matter how late they came back, they always bit a few prey. After all, they are animals, and Li Qin doesn't want to really raise them as cats.

In the winter moon, the lynx is also one and a half years old, and it is fully adult. They went out longer and longer, but finally one day, they didn't come back overnight.

Usually when the lynx returns, the hound barks and does not bark again, but this night the hound does not even bark.

Maybe he was used to listening to their snoring on weekdays, but now he suddenly couldn't listen to them all night, and Li Qin was even a little unaccustomed to it.

"Yu Fei, Yu Fei?" Before dawn, Li Qin called him, and it was really a relationship between tossing and turning all night, and he didn't sleep sincerely.

"What's wrong?" Yu Fei was called by Li Qin, and was so frightened that he bounced up before he could open his eyes.
