There were some footsteps mixed with the sound of the rain, and soon another person appeared in front of Han Cheng's house and walked towards the door.

The man was wearing a raincoat with a rope tied to his chin.

The ears and hair were all covered under the hat, and only one face was exposed.

He came to Han Cheng's house, took off his raincoat, and hung it on the wooden stick nailed to the wall at the door.

It's under the eaves, but it can't get rainy.

After all, the eaves are not only exposed to the outside of the tile ten centimeters but also a little more, when the wall is about to reach the top and is about to be paved, two or three consecutive floors have begun to consciously expand to the outside.

After three floors, there are more than ten centimeters to the outside.

Coupled with the extra 10 centimeters of tiles, it is equivalent to a total of 20 centimeters of width of the eaves.

With such a wide distance, it can avoid a lot of rainwater hitting the wall.

"Divine son, witch, what should I do with these lamb slices?"

When the elder brother came to the house, he began to talk, and the same thing he cared about was the mutton slices that could not be dried because of the cloudy and rainy weather.

"Or else wrap these slices of meat in a thick layer of salt, and then thread them with a large needle and string, hang them in the room and under the ventilated eaves to be air-dried, and make them into slices of salted meat?"

After the senior brother finished speaking, he spoke again and said the solution he had come up with.

The witch sitting next to him suddenly lit up his eyes when he heard the solution that the senior brother said.

This is indeed a good solution, much better than what I thought!

Although after such an operation, these mutton slices will definitely not become the mutton jerky that they and others think, it is indeed a very good way to let the people in the tribe eat these mutton slices as rice and eat them as quickly as possible in the last day or two!

At least in this case, the lamb slices can be preserved.

"Son of God, why don't you do it?"

Wu shifted his gaze to Han Cheng and asked.

Obviously, he was already very fond of the method that the senior brother had come up with.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Wu's inquiry, Han Cheng actually shook his head and did not agree.

Such a reaction made Wu and Senior Brother stunned.

"I thought of a better way to dry out the lamb slices and make them jerky in this situation.

It can even make the taste of the lamb jerky better. ”

Han Cheng opened his mouth and said.

Wu and the senior brother couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard the words.

……

Beneath the shed on the outside, the plasterers of the tribe are doing things here with bricks and reconciled mud.

As they got busy, simple buildings were built.

The buildings are really simple, resembling bookshelves.

After the foundation is built to a certain height, a layer of bricks is built, a layer of yellow mud is made on it, and then a layer is evenly spread on it with many small branches of chopsticks thickness as a partition.

After doing this, a brick will be placed at each end, and the brick will be coated with a layer of yellow mud, and then continue to evenly spread a small wooden stick with a meter and six lengths as a compartment.

Of course, the bricks are built vertically, so that the distance between the compartments is larger.

In this way, the layers of walls are built up, and it is about 1.8 meters high before they are capped.

At this time, there were thirteen floors to this thing.

The interval between the layers is about ten centimeters.

Of course, it looks similar to the style of the large bookshelves in the library, but in fact it is very different.

For example, the width of the compartment.

The compartments of each floor are one meter four wide.

This thing was built according to Han Cheng's opinion to solve the problems encountered by the tribe's mutton slices.

This thing is nothing but a kang.

Different from the kang used to sleep and warm in the tribe, this kang is used to cook things, to be precise, it is used to make kang mutton jerky.

Using the kang to dry these mutton slices that had no time to dry and make them into mutton jerky is the method that Han Cheng came up with.

The direct inspiration for this approach came from Han Cheng's childhood experience.

As mentioned earlier, Han Cheng grew shiitake mushrooms in his family when he was a child.

After the shiitake mushrooms are picked, they will not be sold directly to the shiitake mushroom market, but they need to be dried at home and then sold with dry goods.

At this time, there is a thing that will be used, and this thing is the kang.

At that time, the scale of Han Chengjia's mushroom cultivation was not large, and a total of two houses and three greenhouses were planted.

At this time, such a thing happened in the tribe, and Han Cheng suddenly remembered this kang.

Immediately, let the people of the tribe build it, and it will be the same as he remembers.

In fact, in addition to this simple kang, Han Cheng also saw other styles of clay kang when he was a child.

That's the kang used to make tobacco leaves.

It covers an area as large as a house, but it is much higher than a normal tiled house.

The roof is steeper, the chimney is higher than the roof, and it is covered with small gray tiles.

On the outside of the crushed kang is a layer of yellow mud mixed with crushed wheat straw.

However, when he can remember, these tobacco kang are no longer used, and there are many fewer people growing tobacco and selling tobacco leaves in the family.

Because this kind of kang is more troublesome, it needs to start with building a special house, and Han Cheng has basically not seen its interior, so he is not familiar with it.

It would take a long time to figure it out, and it didn't meet the tribe's desperate need to turn mutton into jerky.

There are a lot of people in the tribe, and it is raining at this time, and there is also a slack in the farm, so there are a lot of people to use.

In just half a day, two rows of ten-meter-long kangs were built.

The reason why they were built in rows was because if they were built in this way, except for the two walls at both ends, the rest of the walls located inside could be used as two.

It can save time and effort to the greatest extent.

This is the same as the houses built in the tribe where ordinary people live are also built in rows.

After the construction was completed, the people in the tribe began to place the lamb slices that had not been dried on the fire kang one by one.

After it was placed, charcoal was put in a simple stove made under the kang, a fire was lit, and the outside of the compartment on which the lamb slices were placed was covered with animal skins.

As the flame burns, the temperature gradually rises, and you can feel the temperature coming from inside when you stand at a certain distance from the ondol.

There would basically be no problem with using such tools and methods to process mutton slices, but for the sake of safety, Han Cheng still didn't let all the kang fire, but only let the two kang fire first.

In order to find experience and see the effect, lest there be any accidents and many mutton slices are destroyed.

Han Cheng is waiting here now, and he is careful to let the person who burns the fire pay attention to the heat.

At the beginning, the fire was relatively large, so after a while, Han Cheng opened the curtain-like thing, and used chopsticks to take out a piece of mutton from the bottom layer, felt it, and found that the moisture of the mutton had become much smaller, and it was already relatively dry, so he asked people to adjust the fire below and make it a lot smaller.

"Let's light the rest of the ondol as well, that's fine."

After Han Cheng put this piece of mutton back, he said this to the rest of the people present who were in charge of lighting the fire.

From the semi-finished mutton slices just now, Han Cheng was already able to determine that this kang and the method were all easy to use, and there was nothing wrong with it.

After Han Cheng's order was issued, everyone present who had already prepared began to take action.

"The fire should not be too big, it will almost be done, and it will not be good if it is too big."

Han Cheng reminded people out loud.

The flame burned, carrying the temperature of the lamb slices that had never been dried up.

As time passed, the unique aroma of lamb jerky began to spread here.

Many children couldn't help but start swallowing, and adults couldn't help but be full of joy.

When the first two burning kangs were lifted, the dried mutton inside was taken out, put into the dustpan woven by bamboo, picked up a piece of dried mutton and tore off a little, and tasted it in his mouth for a while, Han Dashenzi, warmly greeted the people present, and after eating a piece of it alone, the laughter here became more enthusiastic.

"Delicious, delicious! It's delicious! ”

Some people couldn't help but praise repeatedly.

Wu had lost another tooth, and it was obviously more difficult to eat.

However, this did not prevent him from tasting these lamb jerky.

Because in addition to his teeth, he also has hands.

Break off the dried mutton with your hands, put it in your mouth, let the saliva slowly soak it, taste it slowly, and wait until it is almost soaked, and chew it gently with your teeth, which also has a different taste.

Tasting the taste of the mutton jerky that came out of the fire kang kang, Wu's face couldn't help but be full of smiles, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Shenzi, who was also eating mutton jerky!

This method is as good as the Son of God said!

Not only can I turn mutton into jerky in a short period of time, but I can also make the taste of jerky no worse than the previous jerky, which is really gratifying.

Those who praised the good taste of the mutton jerky here couldn't help but give Han Cheng a thumbs up after seeing Wu's movements.

Han Cheng, whose vanity was greatly satisfied, also showed a very bright smile on his face.

The people who ate the mutton jerky were more active in their work.

They put the uneaten piece of mutton jerky into their clothes pockets, and began to move on the slices of mutton that were still wet, and put them on the kang that had been vacated.

After a while, it was already placed.

After the leather curtain-like thing hung down to cover the outside of the kang, a new round of kang mutton jerky began again.

Subsequently, the dried mutton in the row of kang was also made out.

Compared with the number of people in the tribe, the two kang mutton jerky that I made before obviously couldn't satisfy everyone in the tribe.

One piece is not enough.

Of course, this is not possible.

Now he is making mutton jerky, and the mutton jerky is made for people to eat, whether it is to improve the enthusiasm of the tribe people, or to make the people in the tribe feel more happy, Han Chengdu will take out a lot of mutton jerky for the people in the tribe to taste and enjoy.

It's similar to cooking, when you're cooking, you get something like chicken or bones out for the person who cooks and the person who is in the kitchen to taste it.

This kind of thing is the most comfortable thing to make people feel comfortable.

One of the happiest things Han Cheng felt when he was a child was that when the family finally killed a chicken, in the kitchen, he currently used a spatula to shovel out two pieces of meat from the pot and put them in a bowl to let himself taste whether the meat was cooked or not.

Eating chicken at this time, it feels really beautiful, and it is better than all the meals after that, and it will taste good when you eat seriously.

Therefore, after these people in the tribe acted one after another to fill the emptied kang with moist mutton jerky again, and began to light the fire, Han Dashenzi waved his hand and asked the people who had not eaten mutton jerky before to come forward and eat a piece of mutton jerky that had just been baked.

The sound of laughter, mixed with a strong sense of happiness, once again bursts out, constantly spreading here.

The autumn wind and autumn rain and the cold air were not miserable, and became warm.

Wu slowly tasted the dried mutton in his mouth, looking at the scene in front of him, his face was full of smiles, and even the wrinkles on his face looked even more.

Especially when he took some of the mutton jerky he ate and brought it to the mouth of the little daughter he was holding in Yuan's arms on the side, teasing his little daughter, and his little daughter spit out a series of bubbles at him, and then twisted her head to the side, the smile on Wu's face became even thicker.

Wu's gaze once again stayed on the kang that was holding things and the mutton jerky on the kang.

The eyes are shining.

Because he remembered some of the other uses of the ondol.

For example, when the weather is bad, it is used to blanch some vegetables on the kang.

Some of the mushrooms that have been found and have been proven to be edible are dried and stored in the kang......

This fire kang is really a good thing, and it can play a lot of roles in the tribe in the future!

Miko has made another good thing!

……

The cold wind was howling, and the snowflakes rustled against the window paper.

There was a red piece of paper that had just been pasted on the door with the word "Fu" written in large letters with a brush, which was torn off by the cold wind.

Immediately, there were children standing by the side, shouting and screaming, and they went all the way to catch up.

Leave a trail of footprints in the snow and a burst of laughter.

And so the year came to an end.
