Chapter 0089 Job Done
Joan has successfully conquered a group of his admirers with food. Luo Xiaofang also likes food, and he used to cook some occasionally. But then he became lazier and lazier, and he was just one person, so it was a very uneconomical thing for him to cook for an hour and eat for 5 minutes.
After eating, Joan led everyone around the fire and sang together, although it sounded like a folk song from her hometown, but Joan succeeded and captured everyone again.
Next, Jamie the little rabbit took advantage of everyone's enthusiasm and went up to dance a homemade rabbit disco for everyone. The two little short legs are beating rhythmically, the two little paws are constantly changing their handsome shapes, and the short and small tails are swaying up and down with the beat of the music.
Li Guoqing and Xiaodi were amused by Jamie's dance, holding their stomachs and hammering the ground, the uncle also laughed, Joan watched Jamie's enchanting dance and covered his mouth and smiled. Luo Xiaofang's stomach hurt from laughter, the atmosphere of the whole scene reached a climax, and the relationship between everyone seemed to be pulled in.
It was as if it had been affected by yesterday, and by the next day, everyone's mood was high and their work was very fast. By the end of the day, Luo Xiaofang had already asked him to complete the remaining 28 trees, and brought the other villagers to assist Jamie in processing the logs they had chopped.
At this time, Luo Xiaofang discovered the magic of his uncle's construction technique. I saw him holding a hammer in his hand, flexibly climbing the eaves of a house, grabbing a piece of processed wood and directly starting to splice the roof, and then a few nails went down, and a piece of the roof was paved, and the whole process was like a smooth flow, and it only took a few minutes to complete. By the end of the second day, the uncle had repaired and strengthened fifteen houses.
On the third day, the uncle seemed to be faster, and it only took ten minutes to repair the roof of a house, and then it took more than ten minutes to repair the walls of the house.
People who saw this scene couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's amazing, is this the power of skill?"
Xiao Di stood outside this room in a daze, watching Uncle Rob use his skills to perform to the fullest, and he thought secretly. "When will I be able to have such strength and impress everyone!"
That afternoon, under the power of Uncle Rob, all the houses in the village were restored as if they were brand new.
The villagers looked at the renovated houses and gratefully gathered around them to thank them. Especially Uncle Rob, who is like a god descending from heaven, is admired as a benefactor to all the villagers.
Amid the villagers' grateful, Jamie took the bag handed over by an old horse villager. Jamie opened the bag and found 20 gold coins lying inside.
"This is the reward that our village pays you, because our village is too small and can't come up with too much compensation, so we can only pay so much."
"20 gold coins is enough, to be honest, we haven't opened until now to participate in the merchant ceremony, thank you, big man."
Jamie happily accepted the gold coins and put them in his backpack.
"Are you going to the merchant ceremony?" The old man asked.
"Yes!" Jamie nodded.
"By the way, there are still some tomatoes in the warehouse in our village, because it is inconvenient to take them out and sell them, so they have been kept in the warehouse, so it is better to give them to you as well, anyway, they will only break down in the end if they are placed here with us."
"Okay, thank you, grandpa, thank you!"
Then, Grandpa Ma took everyone to the warehouse, and sure enough, there were some tomatoes stored in it. Enthusiastic villagers came to help, and everyone moved the tomatoes to the cart.
Before leaving, the villagers reluctantly said goodbye to everyone, and Luo Xiaofang and Li Guoqing finally left Gage Village with a cart.
Before leaving Gage Village, one of the villagers told everyone that there was a nearby village called Crook Horn Village, where a large number of sheep lived, and they had several lambs this year, so there was a shortage of food, and carrots should be able to sell there for a good price.
The villager was right, after arriving at the village of Crook Kok, the carrots produced by Jamie's family were very popular with the villagers. According to the villagers, it was the first time they had seen such a beautiful and delicate carrot. It tastes just as crispy, sweet and refreshing, full of juice and rich in vitamins that baby lambs need to grow.
A cartload of carrots was quickly snapped up by the villagers, so Jamie also earned 20 gold coins.
However, there is still a part of the tomatoes in Gage Village, but there is no sales here. Seeing that the tomatoes were a little sluggish, and it didn't look like they should be stored for long, Jamie saw it in his eyes, but he was very anxious, and he wanted to sell these tomatoes here.
"There's no way to be in such a hurry! Let's figure it out together. ”
Watching Jamie jump up and down in a hurry, even the smallest Xiao Di couldn't help but persuade him.
"In less than two days, these tomatoes will go bad, and if you don't deal with them as soon as possible, you will lose a lot of money."
Although these tomatoes were given to him by the villagers of Gage Village for free, and he did not ask for funds as he did, but you really saw that these goods were broken, and Jamie was very distressed when he was used to living a hard life since he was a child.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Qiao An, who had not spoken on the side, suddenly spoke.
"Or we can make ketchup from these tomatoes!"
"Ketchup?"
"Tomato sauce!"
Several people replied in unison, but everyone's tone seemed to be a little different. Some are surprised, some are questioned, and some are affirmed.
Before everyone could speak, Qiao An began to popularize the knowledge of ketchup to everyone.
"Tomato sauce is a concentrated product of crushed tomatoes, which is made of ripe red tomatoes as raw materials, crushed, pulped, peeled and seeded and concentrated, canned and sterilized. In addition to lycopene, ketchup also contains B vitamins, dietary fiber, minerals, proteins and natural pectin, etc., and the nutrients in ketchup are easier to be absorbed by the body than fresh tomatoes. ”
Listening to Joan gushing about the benefits of ketchup, everyone nodded frequently, but Jamie, who was standing on the side, suddenly asked.
"What does that have to do with our current problem, these tomatoes are going to go bad soon!"
"Don't worry, just listen to me slowly. We can add lemon when boiling tomato paste, lemon is a good antioxidant that prolongs the shelf life of tomato paste. And after the ketchup is boiled, it can be stored in a glass container with a high degree of sealing, and it can be stored for a long time. ”
