Chapter 298: Making Potato Flour

For the fact that more than 100 acres of potatoes have been planted in the area, many are very relieved and surprised.

Although he couldn't understand why Li Huan's potatoes could be planted so big, as long as it was grain, he was happy, and Chinese naturally liked grain, and with grain they had a sense of security.

Especially when many people weighed an acre of land after digging, they found that there were more than 4,000 catties of potatoes, and after reading the scales, he couldn't help but scold a foul word:

"This special mother is rich!"

Zhao Yiyi on the side heard that the political commissar would also say foul language, and she couldn't help laughing, she didn't have any concept of land harvest, so she didn't understand what the concept of being able to grow 4,000 catties of grain per mu of land was.

Li Huan was also a little surprised by this yield, there was not much grain grown in one acre of land in the first year of the year, let alone if it was dry land, there was not too little grain.

In later generations, it is impossible to grow thousands of catties of grain on an acre of land at every turn, and it is already considered a particularly high yield to grow three or four hundred catties of wheat on one acre of land.

But most of the people grow millet at home, these things are drought tolerant, and the yield is not low, the most important thing is to preserve.

The higher authorities need to formulate a currency when restoring the local economy, but if this currency is issued directly, no one will want it, and it must be linked to something, and the policy adopted by the Eighth Route Army is to link it to millet.

The regions ruled by the Eighth Route Army were already preparing to use this border ticket, pegging the currency to millet and being able to exchange it for the equivalent value of millet.

This is stronger than the currency gold peg, the person who came up with this policy is really a talent, Li Huan especially wants to deduct 666 for him.

It's just that there are too few base areas, and they are extremely unstable, and it is too difficult to attract some businessmen to come and do business, and they need to continue to strengthen their own strength.

"Political commissar, hundreds of thousands of catties of more than 100 acres of land have to be searched, am I getting rich?"

"Your kid is indeed rich, but this wealth points us a little!" Many wiped the sweat from their heads and smiled faintly.

Li Huan generously said that he could share a little bit with everyone, after all, he couldn't eat so many potatoes piled up into a mountain.

And if there is a staple food to eat, they will not choose to eat potatoes, which are best used only as supplementary food.

Of course, potato flour can be used as a staple food, but now Li Huan doesn't know how to do it!

"Li Huan, it just so happens that our regiment hasn't received any food this summer, these potatoes of yours have solved a big problem for us, we will send someone to dig them immediately, you kid don't move too much for the time being, lest these potatoes will spoil after they get out of the ground!"

Although potatoes are easy to preserve, they can be eaten fresh, and no one chooses to eat spoiled ones, so many people are going to let other people come and dig them, and then the grain in the group will be there.

"Well, I won't dig too much, leave me ten acres of land, I'm going to use some of it as food, and I'm going to experiment with some new things!"

"This kid doesn't spoil his food!" Many people were a little anxious when they heard Li Huan say this, food is the best gift of the earth, let alone modern times, even the ancient people did not dare to waste food at will, it is said to be guilty.

"Don't worry, Commissar, I just want to make something fresh to make the potatoes taste better and easier to preserve!"

"Okay, as long as you kid doesn't waste food!" In fact, many of them were also born in large families, and Li Hua didn't know what family he was born in, anyway, he heard that he was fooled into doing the revolution more than ten years ago, and he never returned home.

Even many people know the importance of food, it makes no sense Li Huan doesn't know, although he hasn't been hungry for a few days, but he really didn't lie, because just now he remembered the potato flour making machine that he drew in the lottery, so he had a new idea.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with getting some potatoes and making some potato flour, and I heard that potato flour tastes better and is easier to preserve.

Since the ground could not be dug up, Li Huan had no choice but to go back, and the first thing he did was to eat barbecue with Changfeng Zhao Yiyi and others.

Put a barbecue rack, cut some potato slices, skewer them with bamboo skewers, then cut the canned luncheon meat into slices and put it on again, and even wear some pork and horse meat skewers.

The bandits' horses that couldn't survive were all killed, and now there is a certain amount of horse meat in the village.

Although the taste of horse meat is not good, it can be regarded as a meat dish, which is better than eating a vegetarian diet every day.

Li Huan also made some steamed buns, cut them into slices and skewered them and roasted them.

Sprinkle pepper and other spices while roasting, and then shout anxiously to the long wind on the other side:

"Changfeng, have you made the ice happy water you made?"

"It's almost there!"

Naturally, there is no refrigerator, but there is no problem with making some ice out of saltpeter powder.

After all, there is a small saltpeter mine near them, and it can be turned into ice water when it is added with water, and it does not necessarily need to be frozen, just cool the happy water.

Everyone was given a bottle of happy water, and then they began to eat barbecue happily, only Li Huan had a cunning look in his eyes.

You can't eat his stuff for nothing, you have to do him a favor!

And so! A group of people agreed to help Li Huan make potato flour.

The machine for potato flour is actually very easy to make, but it is better to cut the potatoes into pieces and peel off the skin before making them.

This is a cumbersome process, Li Huan feels that since he paid for the barbecue, then Zhao Yiyi, Changfeng and others have to help him with this.

I saw that the potatoes were thrown into the machine, and the donkey next to me kept circling around the machine, and then the machine started.

I don't know what the system thinks, but if you give him an animal-powered machine, can't you change it to an automatic one?

Well, even if it's automatic, it's useless, after all, he has little oil and electricity here, and the energy supply is a huge problem.

After seeing the stupid donkey spinning around the machine, Li Huan saw that the machine had a lot of white flour-like viscous slurry scratched down, and then Changfeng took a basin there and continued ......

As for making potato flour, it was simple, and in less than a few days, there were many more shelves near the headquarters, on which many noodles-like potato flour were hung, which looked particularly beautiful, and occasionally a few little children ate it secretly, and they didn't want to eat it after finding that it didn't taste.

Seeing these potato flour appear, Li Huan's heart settled down a lot, with food, are you still afraid that the little devil will come over?

Kill them in minutes!

At this time, the Chinese army and the Japanese army were frantically competing for food, and the peasants everywhere were miserable, because the Japanese army began to grab grain in order to blockade the Chinese army, and even slaughtered villages......
