82 Brainstorming
The air froze suddenly, and the eyes full of surprise, amazement, and disbelief fell on Ryoko's face, and he forgot to chew the meat in his mouth so awkwardly that he stared at him with stupid eyes, as if he didn't know Ryoko, and slammed into his face as if he didn't know him.
"Why are you looking at me?" Ryoko said awkwardly.
His position was far away from the bonfire, and several people had their backs to the bonfire, and Ryoko couldn't see everyone's expressions at all, only a few distorting black shadows against the firelight.
And he sat on the ground, the others stood around the bonfire condescendingly, and several tall shadows shrouded him together, and the psychological pressure was not a little great.
He Jun couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and asked solemnly: "Liangzi, this is not a joke, you really have a way?" β
Several other people showed expectant expressions at the same time, even Old Man Liu was no exception.
Ryoko swallowed his saliva: "What's so difficult about this, isn't it over making jerky?" You can always see such plots in novels. β
"Jerky?" He Jun was dumbfounded and slapped his head hard, "Why didn't I think of it?" β
"Will it work?" Douzi still has no bottom in his heart.
"Definitely!" He Jun said, "If you don't leave a little moisture, it won't be a problem to put it for a few months." β
Awkwardly smacked his lips and said: "The beef jerky is the best, but it is too hard, and it takes a lot of teeth to eat. β
"Stupid you!" Ryoko said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't it over after boiling the jerky and then eating it?" β
"Is it still delicious?" The awkward tone was pulled out all at once.
Liangzi was not to be outdone: "It's good to have food, but you still pick three or four, I don't think you're hungry!" β
He Jun didn't have the heart to care about the infighting of the gangster trio, and turned his head to look at Old Man Liu: "Uncle, do you know how to make jerky?" β
Uncle Liu shook his head affirmatively: "I haven't done it, but isn't jerky just making meat dry?" Nothing difficult. β
"How?" He Jun said tangledly, "Yin dry? Dried? Or is it air-dried? β
"Let's air dry." Awkward said, "I like to eat air-dried beef jerky the most." β
Thinking of the taste of beef jerky, I had an awkward mouthful of saliva, and there was almost no flash flood.
"Air-dried...... It doesn't seem to work. He Jun said hesitantly, "It's so hot, there is no wind these days, and the fresh meat will be almost empty for two days, and if the meat doesn't become dry, it will stink first." β
"What then? Is it better to dry in the shade than to dry in the air, in the sun? "Two of the three solutions have gone, and there is only one answer left.
He Jun sighed: "Unless we can get an oven, drying is the best way...... I just can't eat it, can I dry the meat in two days? What if it rains? β
The climate in prehistoric times was hot and humid, very similar to the modern tropical rainforest, and if the dried meat was wet in the rain, the loss would be great - He Jun did not lose a little meat at the station, and the loss he cared about was the time and energy that everyone paid for it.
Ryoko's eyes lit up: "Is it okay to roast it directly with fire?" β
"Forget it, we don't have much fuel in the first place, and if we barbecue jerky, it will all run out in a few days." Awkwardly reprimanded Ryoko's bad idea.
"What about an oven?" Ryoko came up with another idea, "Like a glass greenhouse, build a box with glass, which can prevent insects and increase the temperature." β
Douzi slapped his thigh, and was about to speak, but he heard He Jun say: "It shouldn't work, rot seems to have something to do with the reproduction of anaerobic bacteria, and it doesn't seem appropriate to make a sealed box." β
The beans were stunned, and when they came to their mouths, they quickly swallowed them back.
He almost uttered the words "good idea".
"What about a hole in the box? Isn't it okay if you don't seal it? "Ryoko still doesn't give up.
He Jun still shook his head: "Liangzi, your idea is actually right, but where can we find glass?" β
"In the car, isn't it okay in the car?" Douzi finally found a chance to speak, "I read the news that the car was exposed to the sun, and the temperature inside was more than 60 degrees, and it was placed in the car, and it couldn't rain down. β
Awkward and weakly said: "Then our car can't do anything except dry meat." β
"The most important thing is to eat, and it's not too late to make the jerky before thinking about hunting." Douzi waved his hand violently, looking heroic as he scolded Fang Xuan.
"Not in the car!" Ryoko also stood up against it, "The space in the car is too small, and there is not much meat to dry, and what can't be dried has to be wasted?" β
When Douzi heard this, he suddenly turned into a leaky balloon.
The more awkward I listened, the more angry my heart became: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, how can it be done?" β
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, but no one can answer awkward questions.
Old Man Liu, who had not spoken, sighed and said, "Xiao He, children, you are just thinking about how to dry the meat, have you ever thought about how to cook the meat?" β
"Huh?" He Jun was stunned, "Isn't it just drying the meat......?"
"Directly drying raw meat?" Old Man Liu was very surprised, "The jerky is all eaten when you bring it, and the raw meat is dried, what should you do when you eat it?" A pot to cook and eat? β
He Junden was speechless, and found that the jerky was not as easy to make as he thought, and he couldn't help but scratch the back of his head in annoyance: "Then what should I do?" Cooked and then dried? β
"It should be fine to bake and then dry." The old man said.
He Jun smiled bitterly: "Isn't this coming back again, how much less time can it take to bake than to dry?" β
Douzi and Liangzi sighed in unison, and Liangzi said quietly: "It would be nice if the meat could be cooked directly, which would save time and effort, and not waste fuel......
"What do you say? Say it again! He Jun suddenly jumped in front of Liangzi with an arrow step, and grabbed Liangzi's shoulder excitedly, with so much force that he almost pinched his thin shoulder into a crushed fracture.
Douzi hurriedly rushed over and grabbed He Jun's wrist: "Brother He, Brother He, if you have something to say slowly, what are you doing here?" β
He Jun realized that he was too excited, and quickly let go of Liangzi: "I'm sorry, I'm so excited, Liangzi, you're amazing, amazing!" He stretched out his thumb and compared it vigorously, and he really didn't know what else to say except praise.
Douzi looked inexplicable: "Brother He, what's wrong with you?" β
He Jun was very excited: "Liangzi reminded me, we can dry the dried meat, we don't have to worry about food anymore, and we won't waste the prey that we have fought so hard to get!" β
"No, Brother He, why do I get more confused the more I listen? How can meat be sunburned? Douzi still looked ignorant, turned his head to look at the awkwardness and then looked at Uncle Liu, the expressions on the faces of the two were as dazed as him.

Guess what, the answer is not difficult at all.
