"And what about the pig you have left?" Those who have tasted his pork, as long as they are not too stupid, should understand the key afterwards, and they will probably have to remember it when the time comes.

"I haven't figured it out yet! It was originally handed over to the public, but now it definitely can't be handed over. "If this pig is really handed over, it's over, and his reason will fool the villagers here, and it can't stand up to investigation at all.

"Then you can pay instead or buy another pig and hand it over!" The secretary helped to come up with ideas together.

Daddy Ji nodded, he could only do this.

"And it's a shame that such good pork is handed over." As he spoke, the secretary sighed for a while, and it was estimated that he couldn't forget the tender and delicious taste in the past two days, and he took it out from time to time to reminisce.

Although the reasons for the two are different, the result is the same meaning.

"You'd better decide sooner! I'm afraid I'll be late. The secretary reminded.

"Well, I know, I just can't think of a way to do it for a while. Secretary, do you have a good idea? He is also in a dilemma, if he doesn't sell it, the whole village will look at it - where is this meat? Sell - the price is low, he is reluctant, not only reluctant to make money, but also reluctant to sell such good meat; The price is high, I am afraid that the villagers will be unhappy, and most importantly, I am afraid that someone will sabotage and sue him for speculation.

"Sold." He couldn't think of any other way.

"I've thought about it too, but it's not easy to open at this price! I can't have such a good meat at the same price as ordinary meat, right? Father Ji asked tentatively.

"Your meat must be higher, as long as you have eaten it, it will not be too expensive." The secretary thought that he was worried that the meat would not be sold, and he was comforting, but he didn't expect that Daddy Ji would have so much drama in his heart.

Father Ji looked around and no one was paying attention, so he whispered to the secretary: "I'm afraid of being sued - speculation." ”

Hearing this, the secretary was stunned, he didn't expect Father Ji to also know about this crime: "Haha, don't worry!" You don't count, I'll give you a certificate at that time, to prove that this pig was raised by your family. ”

Speculation refers to making huge profits by means of buying short and selling short, driving up prices, adulterating and making fakes, and arbitrage and reselling.

But the peasants are all self-produced and sold, not counted, so the countryside generally does not think of this crime.

Of course, there is also a premise that the village has already paid the public grain, and the public grain here refers to a kind of grain in addition to the agricultural tax - in order to support national construction, a certain amount of surplus grain is sold to the state at a price lower than the market price according to the calculation of each mu of land.

Then, when selling something, bring a certificate from the village, explaining that the thing is produced in your own land or at home, and it is sold at the same price as the supply and marketing cooperative, so there is no restriction and does not fall within the scope of "speculation".

"That's more expensive than regular meat, isn't it?" It's better to ask clearly, feel at ease.

"It's okay, it's good value for money." The secretary looked at Father Ji's worried look, and gave an example: "Look at our rice-polished rice is not the same price as broken rice, right?" And flour - ordinary flour is not the same as Fuqiang flour, right? To do as you say, all the rice! Flour! It all has to be a price. ”

"Hehe, so I'm relieved, the main thing is that I heard what others said, and I don't know much about it, no, I'm worried about something, so I'll ask first." With the situation of his family, it is really a loss to be convicted because of this, don't say goodbye, just say that it is good to be a grass pig, and there are still 100 of them in the little sister! There is not much more of this one, and there is no less of this one, so he really didn't feel at ease about this pig, and he paid so much attention to it because he wanted to deal with it well on the bright side.

"You~You~ are just too careful, but well~ It's okay to be cautious, there's nothing wrong with being careful." The secretary is also helpless to Father Ji, sometimes he feels that he is too cautious in doing things, and sometimes he thinks that he has a very good character, and he is very relieved to do things with him.

"Hehe~ Then I'll go to Lao Wu again when I'm free, and I don't know if he was free a year ago? It's really not going to be a year later. After the time is determined, I have to trouble the secretary to help me notify everyone to come and buy meat. ”

"Okay, just talk about it then, you've already decided on the price?" His family is living a good life, try to buy as much as possible then, anyway, it is not easy to break in winter.

"We don't have bills in the countryside, I calculated that ordinary pork tickets are about six cents a catty, not expensive, right?" Father Ji also wanted to know if there was a problem with the price he set.

The secretary nodded, it was about this price.

"I don't know if I can get feed next year, such pigs may be this time, and I especially hope that everyone will have the opportunity to taste my pork; Uh~ You also know that the price is expensive, and there must be many people who may not be able to afford it or are reluctant to buy it; Uh~ Give them the price of six cents a catty, of course, it will not work if it is more, I will lose to death, uh~ each family will have a maximum of one catty! What do you think? "It can be sold to the villagers; What's more, if someone doesn't have a long eye to sue, he will not be short of witnesses by then - to prove that his family's meat is good, it must be worth the money.

The secretary gave a thumbs up to Daddy Ji - benevolence and righteousness.

Father Ji was a little ashamed to see the secretary praising himself like this, and he also had his own careful thoughts.

"How many pounds are you going to sell?" It's too expensive, and he's afraid he won't be able to afford it.

"8 cents a pound, how's that? Will it be expensive? "At this price, Daddy Ji has also been well thought out.

"This price is okay, no way who told us to be in the countryside! No matter how high it is, no one can afford it, if it is estimated that it is more than a piece in the city. He was afraid that few people would buy it, but he didn't say it, and he was embarrassed to hit Ji Laoer's confidence.

"Well, I think so too, anyway, my meat can't be sold in the village, so let the second child take the county to sell it, and then I will trouble you to help us make a certificate." This is just an excuse, he will not go to the county seat to sell this pork, just let everyone know where the meat goes.

"Okay, that's it, then tell me the exact time, I'll let you know." He just waited to buy meat.

At the same time, Mrs. Ji also began to discuss the next day's dishes with Grandma Twelve......

"Grandma Twelve, are you going to start preparing tomorrow's dishes now?" On the twenty-sixth day, Grandma Twelve is both a matchmaker and a chef, and I'm afraid she won't be in time.

"Are you sure you just need to get something affordable?" That's fine, at least it's not too top-notch, according to the situation outside, Grandma Twelve is not very in favor of holding a banquet in her heart, for fear of shooting the first bird.

Now it is their village, because the autumn harvest is timely and slightly better, no one in the nearby villages has held a banquet for nearly a year, and the twelve grandmothers are also based on kindness, thinking that they are relatives, so they reminded Ji Lao Niang, but she still insisted on going her own way.

In fact, it is not that Ji Lao Niang insists on going her own way, but for the convenience of the little sister and Ye Shoujun in the future, especially in the past two years of famine, among those who know, she and Ji Lao Dad have to go to work, and it is not convenient to do anything, Ye Shoujun will definitely be used at that time, if there is no name, there are too many contacts, for fear of affecting the reputation of the children, and they are ready to get engaged, then this matter can only be done sooner rather than later, even if the children are wronged, they must be done early.

"Well, just six dishes, the meaning is good, I don't want any cold dishes and desserts, so it shouldn't be top-notch, and relatives and friends can eat comfortably." To be honest, in this special period, there are still six big dishes, Ji Lao Niang is actually a little panicked in her heart, it's just that the little sister has a once-in-a-lifetime engagement wine, and six is already the least, so she can't be wronged anymore, so she can only gamble.

"Oh~ This is the menu I proposed yesterday, can you see if there is anything that needs to be changed?" Grandma Twelve handed it to Ji Lao Niang, she knew that Ji Lao Niang had gone to school and could understand it, so she let her read it herself.

Ji Lao Niang looked at the dishes on the list - rice sieve meatballs, mushroom soup, sweet and sour fish, fried meat balls, rice noodles steamed pork, braised pig's head meat, braised tofu, and the staple food is multigrain steamed buns.

"Just follow this! Can all of these dishes be prepared today? "It's already very good, there are fish and meat, according to the strength of their family outside, holding such a table of banquets, although it is difficult, but it is not impossible to take it, not to mention that they have just killed a pig, at most they will call poor when they are outside.

"Okay, I'll do the main ones first, and there will be no big problems with the rest, who are you going to take over the cooking for tomorrow?" Twelve grandmothers choose these dishes, another reason is that they can be prepared in advance, rice sieve meatballs and mushroom soup - mainly the taste of broth, sweet and sour fish - sweet and sour sauce, fried meat balls - can be prepared, rice noodles and steamed pork - mainly marinated pork belly, braised pork head meat - marinated immediately, after one night, more flavorful, braised tofu - also braised sauce, as long as she prepares the main one first, and then teaches how to put the plate to look good, and the rest, as long as the chef with slightly better cooking skills, can do it.

"What do you think of my sister-in-law? Can she do it? "Her cooking skills are okay, but Ye Luzi can't compare with Grandma Twelve.

"Yes," as long as there is something red and white in the village, the eldest aunt will follow to help, so Grandma Twelve still has some confidence in her cooking skills.

"That's good, that's good, I'm nervous now, I'm afraid that I won't be able to cook tomorrow, and I'm afraid of delaying the auspicious time."

"It's okay, since I have promised you, it will definitely be arranged, don't worry!" Grandma Twelve also understands Xiulan's feelings, she doesn't distrust herself, but it's just that she is messing up.

"Mmmmmm, that twelfth grandmother, you have worked so hard in the past two days, call me directly if you have something." Ji Lao Niang is the master, in this kind of big day, there are a lot of trivial things, she can't stay in the stove all the time, she can only ask the twelve grandmothers.

Ji Lao Niang suddenly thought: "Oh~ That's right, Grandma Twelve, that pork, except for what I need tomorrow, you have helped me deal with it, whether it is bacon, bacon, bacon, or braised meat, oh yes~ Isn't it just to marinate pig's head?" Then a little more marinade, do you think it's okay? If you don't have time, throw it directly into the backyard water tank (natural refrigerator). "She doesn't have time to deal with it, although it's winter, but the climate on their side is not particularly low, after two or three days, it would be a pity if there is a peculiar smell, of course, if it is put on the farm, there will be no problem, but there are so many guests in the family, plus the four sons are at home, especially the eldest one, with his observant character, 100% found the problem, she can't take risks.
