Chapter 76: Go to the Farmer's Market
Guanhu Farmers' Market?
Of course this Fang Ye knew.
Often before dawn, Lao Zhang would open a small piece of bread and go there to buy fresh vegetables, fruits and meat for the zoo. Bus No. 35 is the only bus that stops at the zoo, the penultimate stop is the zoo, and the fifth to last stop is the Guanhu Farmers' Market. The distance is still quite close.
After thinking about it, he called Meng Shi.
It's better to go as soon as possible, the system says that there is no danger to life for 24 hours, but it is not sure who buys it, and it is more troublesome to find it if the location changes.
Meng Shi will hold a 30kg dumbbell in each hand, but the heavy dumbbell seems to be as light as nothing in his hand, his face is not red and his heart is not beating when he lifts it up and down, and he is not even short of breath. That weight is nothing more than an appetizer for him.
The zoo opens at 8 a.m., and because it is located in the suburbs and there are no animals, there are no tourists at all, so the keepers can sleep until 7 o'clock, or even wake up at 8 o'clock.
But now that the zoo's popularity is gradually recovering, some visitors who like animals really come at 8 o'clock, so they have to get up early to clean up the exhibits and feed the animals before the visitors arrive.
Although Meng Shi came to the zoo, he still kept the habit of exercising, so he would get up earlier and exercise his muscles a little.
Putting down a dumbbell, he picked up the phone with one hand, and kept holding the dumbbell with the other: "Hey, principal." ”
"Up? Didn't disturb your sleep. ”
"No, I'm going to be exercising."
Fang Ye suddenly understood, listening to this calm voice, he was probably doing early morning radio gymnastics or something: "Okay, we'll go have a meal together later, and then follow me to the farmers' market." ”
"Oh, okay." Meng Shi didn't ask what he wanted to do, he just wanted to be a tool carrier, hung up the phone and continued to exercise.
After the blue carp came over to hand over the little white tiger, Fang Ye first went to the cafeteria to have breakfast with Meng Shi, and then asked Lao Zhang to ask for the keys to the van and go to the farmers' market.
"By the way, Meng Shi, can you drive?" Fang Ye yawned after getting into the car, "I want to squint a little." ”
"Principal, the seat in front of me is too small, I can't sit and perform, I'm afraid that driving will be dangerous."
Fang Ye looked back and was speechless, sure enough, even the very wide space in the back seat of the bread, Meng Shi looked aggrieved when he stayed, and his head had to be lowered slightly.
"Forget it, I'll do it."
The distance of three stops will be there in a while!
It will be half past six in the morning, but the farmers' market is already very lively, the tricycle delivering vegetables is crowded around in the not wide road, and the uncles and aunts pushing the carts and carrying their pockets are endless, picking and picking in front of the stalls, the sound of bargaining for vegetables, the sound of chopping meat with kitchen knives, the sound of chickens and ducks crowing, and the smell of animals wafting in the air.
Anyone who has ever bought vegetables knows that this is the time when there are many people in the morning, because it will make both meat and vegetables fresh and complete. The best quality and quality of the goods that are in demand later have been picked away, and they can only buy the second best.
The Guanhai Farmers' Market is roughly divided into three areas, one is the vegetable and fruit area, the other is the meat area, and the other is the fish and shrimp aquatic products area.
The entrance area is a vegetable and fruit area, and you can see fresh bamboo shoots dug up on the stall, the roots are cut off by a sharp machete, and the soil has not been washed off, and the red and plump tomatoes are piled into a triangular pile, and there are two edges rolling down after a little touch.
Meng Shi said consciously: "Principal, I'll wait for you outside, just ask me to pick up the things you have bought." ”
“ok!” Fang Ye gestured.
The animals that need to be rescued are most likely to be in the aquatic or meat area, and it is unlikely to be in the vegetable and fruit area. So he went straight to the aquatic area.
As soon as I entered the aquatic area, I saw a young boss wearing rubber shoes, smashing a big carp to the ground, and with a loud sound, the fish was dizzy, and before he could react, he was dazzled by the skillful knife technique to open the intestine and break the belly, scrape off the scales, and then handed it to the old man next to him.
Fang Ye looked a little drooling, it seemed that he hadn't eaten fish for a while, why don't you buy two fish by the way and bring them back and let Lao Zhang make a braised fish or something. Of course, if you want to buy fish, he prefers sea fish, which has fewer spines.
Swallowing his saliva and shaking his head, Ya Eryou, you're not here to buy vegetables, you're here to find protected animals! It's important to get down to business.
You don't need to look closely at each stall, and when you get close to the animal, you will be prompted, so you follow the crowd and walk to the market.
"It can't be any kind of fish, right? The zoo doesn't have a special aquarium now, so it's not good for fish farming. ”
Fang Ye muttered in his heart.
If there is no supporting environment, just simply take a fish tank to raise, it is too bad. This is a zoo and not a bird and flower market.
However, after walking around, I didn't hear the prompt, but I saw a crayfish in a stall full of energy and constantly waving tongs, and I couldn't help but buy five catties. Wouldn't it be nice to have a spicy beer crayfish for supper in the evening?
After buying it, he handed the crayfish to Meng Shi and continued to look for it in the meat area.
The main source of flavor in the farmers' market was the meat section, where the large intestines of the pigs, which were twisted and bent in the iron plate, made Fang Ye wrinkle his nose and put on a mask of pain as he passed by.
Although he also likes to eat large intestines, especially stir-fried large intestines, the taste of fresh large intestines is really not complimentary.
"Quack, quack!" The chickens and ducks in the cages were very noisy, and the pigeons were "cooing" and flapping their wings.
Walking through this bird area, Fang Ye was a little puzzled, the rest of the sight was slaughtered pigs, cattle and sheep or something, there were no living creatures, so where were the protected animals?
His gaze swept over the back door of the market, and Fang Ye subconsciously walked there.
Passing through the back door, there is an alley outside, and there are many shops, and it is another world.
In fact, what is sold here is the same as the big market outside, but there are very few scattered people in the back alley, more people are people who buy from restaurants, pigs and sheep are bought whole, and seafood and vegetables are also bought in large boxes. Most of them have been booked in advance, and there is no noisy bargaining outside, so they will move directly to the car after checking.
Including the zoo to prepare feed for animals, it also has a long-term cooperative relationship with several stores here.
"Boss, do you want to buy pigs? Come and see my pigs, fat, big and well-quarantined! A topless, oily pig seller seemed to see that Fang Ye was a new face, and greeted him courteously.
Fang Ye waved his hand, the taste here was really bad, he didn't want to speak if he didn't have to.
"Ding! Protected animals have appeared within 20 meters! ”
As soon as he walked a few steps into the alley, a system prompt appeared, Fang Ye suddenly became energetic, and his feet were two points faster, and he finally found it after looking for such a big circle!
