"Xiao'er, don't be nervous, my brother promises, the knife is fast, and it won't hurt for too long."

"Howl ~~~Howl ~~~"

"What does howl mean? Are you ready to be stabbed? Hahaha, brother, I'm here...... Ouch! You're hiding again! ”

"Hahahaha, Zhang Lingxing, forget it, let me come!"

Time has entered the wax moon of the twentieth year of Yanxi, and the flavor of the New Year in Shuhan is getting stronger and stronger.

Although the country has become weaker and weaker in recent years, the lives of ordinary people have become more and more difficult. But no matter how difficult it is, the year still has to pass, right?

Moreover, Fuling County has made a lot of achievements in economic construction over the past year. It is different from the common people of other counties in Shuhan. The people of Fuling County only feel that this year's life has improved very well compared to before. Therefore, the local New Year's flavor is full of joyful atmosphere and expectations for the coming year.

As a child who came out of the countryside before traveling, Guan Yi's favorite thing to do was to kill New Year's pigs. That's the greatest consolation for a year's hard work.

In the enclosure on the mountain behind the Taishou Mansion in Fuling County, the longest steer has been raised for ten months. The largest weighs well over Sishi (more than 110 kilograms), and even by the standards of 21st-century farms, it is time to be slaughtered. So Guan Yi selected the fattest one of them and released them from the pen, and came to kill the New Year pig with his staff.

It's a pity that although this group of boys has exercised a good kung fu in the hunting team, everyone is not in a hurry to kill, but to tease this fat pig to play.

"Roar~~~Roar~~~" A roar came from the direction of the backyard of the Taishou Mansion. In an instant, two yellow and black figures appeared - these are the two tiger cubs that Qian Qiang has been carefully feeding for more than half a year.

Hearing the roar of the tiger, the big fat pig became even more anxious, and ran wildly when he saw the passage in the front yard. But at the moment when it was about to run out, a figure flashed out quickly, quickly avoiding the fat pig's strong head, and grabbed its hind legs with both hands.

"Good!" "The national prestige is amazing!" "It's just that it's much better than Ling Xing's stupidity." "Hahaha~~~".

A group of young people were unbridled and happy there, and the eldest Liao Yong also straightened his gray beard drunkly, but saw that next to the group of happy young people, another young man did not join the group, but was sad on the side.

"What's wrong, Dingyeol? Reluctant? ”

"Hehe, Uncle Yong, it's not that I'm reluctant. This beast doesn't do anything every day, except for eating and sleeping, and of course he deserves this knife. But after all, I'm in charge of the enclosure. It's watching them grow up day by day, and if they don't have any feelings at all, it's really inhuman. ”

"Understand, understand, you did a good job. Well, how much can be slaughtered this year? ”

"One hundred and thirty-five mouths, in addition to ten for the general and ten for the rear general. According to Brother Zifeng's intentions, all the remaining 115 were slaughtered. All the fresh meat that can't be eaten is made into bacon. ”

"Well, in this way, the county soldiers of Fuling County and the guards of the Fuxing Society will not be short of meat to eat next year. Dinglie, you have a lot of credit. Yong is here to thank you on behalf of everyone. ”

"You don't have to, Uncle Yong, according to Brother Zifeng, everyone has their own things, and they all need to do their own things well."

"Well, Dingyeol, are you ready for next year's breeding? The old man hopes that this meat will not be broken. ”

"Please rest assured that 60 sows and 20 breeding pigs have just been prepared. Next year's goal is to slaughter 600 heads. ”

"Oh, it can be increased fivefold in a year, it seems that Taishou is right to give you prefabricated manpower in advance. In other words, those barbarians are quite obedient when they come to the enclosure, right? Is there anything that makes you feel bad? If you have something to say, tell the old man, I will kill you and establish power. ”

"No, no." Sun Gang waved his hand again and again: "Uncle Yong, what did these barbarians eat in Qinjiabao before, and what did they eat when they came to us?" When they were first given pure rice, the group of guys all cried together and came to kneel down and thank Gang...... How can they not work well? Hey, I've been on CD for too long before, and I don't know anything about the suffering of the world......"

The big fat pig was finally killed by Zhang Zun's knife. After the pig's blood is drained, the whole body is washed. Guan Yi personally took charge of the knife and began to dissect the fat pig.

For Guan Yi's most favored lard, there is actually a classification. The two large pieces of lard between the pork and the offal are called plate fat. It is the place where lard is most concentrated. In pork, it is called fat oil that is mixed with skeletal muscle, and there is also skin oil that is mixed with skin tissue, and water and oil that is mixed with internal organs.

What Guan Yi needs is two plates of oil.

After cutting open the pork belly and taking out two pieces of oil, Guan Yi breathed a big sigh of relief: Look at this amount, it's a lot.

Sure enough, when I got the scale, it was 10 pounds!

Well, according to the general boiling of lard will produce 3 to 4% of the loss. This pig's two pieces of oil alone can provide him with 6 to 7 catties of pure lard. After all the slaughtered pigs are killed this year, at least more than 500 catties of lard can be obtained.

This is high-purity lard, which is basically full of fatty acid glycerides. The saponification reaction converts it into soap with very little loss. Basically, one pound of lard can be converted into 0.95 pounds of soap - this is pure soap. In fact, as a modern person, Guan Yi must add various additives such as spices and water to it. In fact, one pound of lard can produce almost two pounds of soap.

Well, if a piece of soap is calculated as 100 grams, then this batch of lard can produce 5,000 pieces of soap. If it is sold to the Mijia firm at a price of 500 yuan per piece, this income is 2.5 million yuan! You can buy nearly 18,000 stone of rice or 30,000 stone of sorghum! And how much sorghum has these more than 100 pigs consumed in these ten months? Even if you count the sows and breeding pigs, you only consume less than 4,000 stone of sorghum! The profit margin is almost 9 times! What a profit!

And that's just the profit from the two plates. The profits generated by pork, pig skin, bristles, and pork bones have not been calculated! What's more, there are two things that are both lucrative and lucrative! And this is the first year of pig production, and the production is extremely small. If it is really possible to slaughter 35,000 heads a year in the future......

"Hehehehehe~~~~ Hahahahaha~~~~~~~" Guan Yi, who was already stupid, couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart anymore, and laughed unscrupulously.

"Why is my brother laughing?"

"Yes, brother, look at the corners of your mouth......"

"Suck~" After sucking back the saliva from the corner of his mouth in embarrassment, Guan Yi shouted angrily: "I'm in a good mood for my brother today, so I'll take you a cheap time." Cook for you yourself! Xiao Qi, go to the backyard and move all the master's everything! ”

As a traverser, if you travel back to the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the appetite can basically be satisfied: the Age of Discovery has begun, and most of the spices, especially chili peppers, have entered China.

If you travel to the middle and late Northern Song Dynasty, it is also acceptable: stir-fry is basically popular.

At the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms era, stir-fry actually appeared. But he is not mainstream, and he is still in the groping stage. Generally speaking, the food processing method of this era is still mainly steaming. Therefore, Guan Yi's so-called household goods are a complete set of fully mature stir-fry tools.

The freshly slaughtered pigs have the most tender meat. Coupled with Guan Yi's skillful stir-frying skills, although there are no seasonings such as monosodium glutamate and watercress in this era. But it was also enough to make the aroma spread throughout the backyard of the Taishou Mansion.

Opening the high-grade rice wine specially sent by the Mijia business, Guan Yi raised the wine bowl and shouted: "Gentlemen, drink to win!" May my Han be better every year, may my Fuling County be better next year, and may we create immortal achievements! ”

"Drink to win!"

With the cheers of the crowd, in a clamor and good prayers. The new year has arrived.
