347. The autumn rain is hazy, and the clothes are changed into ponchos (Happy Holidays)
Wang Yi returned to the top of the mountain and pondered in his heart how to carry out the activities of learning from Comrade Yuan Longping.
Maybe the school could be renamed Longping Elementary School?
Forget it, it's a bit costly.
Why don't you change the pier to Longping Pier? Or the reef beach is named Longping Beach as a memorial.
This kind of commemoration is quite valuable, and he remembers that an asteroid was named after Old Man Yuan.
Of course, a small place like their production team is not comparable to the name of an asteroid, but the goose feather gift is light and affectionate, and the important thing is the heart.
This thing is easy to do, anyway, it is a learning activity in the production team, just deal with it casually.
Maybe you can go on a trip for 22 years and check how learning activities are held in various places online.
The weather was gloomy into the afternoon, and the autumn rain fell again.
This time the rain is still not heavy.
The raindrops hit the leaves and made a clattering sound, dense and hazy.
I don't know if the raindrops were too small or the humidity was too high, just when it was raining, the sea was foggy.
The weather made it impossible to box, so the students took music and culture classes again.
Wang Yi has more soldiers under him, and he has more free time for himself, so that he can hold up an umbrella and walk slowly in the autumn rain.
Enjoying the autumn light in the rain is very pleasant.
Slipping up the back hill, he saw some women in the water at the foot of the mountain, bending over the edge of the tide and searching for something.
They wore robes and hats, and the rain slid down on them, and the sea water washed over their calves exposed by the trouser legs, which was very traditional to life.
This kind of scene is not pleasant to look at.
Although the weather has not cooled down, the sea water will inevitably be cooler on rainy days, and it is quite torturous to catch seafood in the sea on this kind of day.
And the waterproof effect of this thing is not good - its bad is not absolutely bad, this kind of handicraft is very good at the manual level of craftsmen.
For example, the people on the island wear it, so they are all made up by their own old people, and the craftsmanship is not good, and the waterproof effect is not good.
Besides, there is another problem with wearing a coat to work is that it is too bulky, it is not easy for a person to stand firm in the wind and waves in the sea, let alone wearing such a bulky thing?
Wang Yi walked over and asked, "Auntie, what are you doing here?" β
A woman named Liu Xiaoying stood up and looked back at him, and said with a smile: "Looking for a fist snail, haven't you never eaten a fist snail and want to taste something?" β
A woman named Zhang Panhong next to her also stood up.
She slapped her waist with her backhand and said, "Well, I was supposed to go to work today, but it rained and we couldn't do the work in the vegetable garden, so we rested. β
These words moved Wang Yi.
I really didn't contribute to the members in vain!
He knew that the members of the club came here to find the fist snail not to please him, but because they respected him, and the members of the club accepted a lot of favors from him on weekdays, so they wanted to give him some favors when they had the opportunity.
Wang Yi asked, "Can you find the fist snail here?" β
The women laughed, "Yes, the fist snail is the same as the touch, it grows on this steep and steep rock face. β
"Look at what I found, this one is the biggest, how about it, is it as big as my fist?"
"Teacher Wang, do you eat or touch? It's hard to clean up the meat of this thing, but it's absolutely fresh, and it is said that the clam is the freshest in the world, and I think the touch is fresher than the clam. β
They showed Wang Yi what they had gained, and the expression on their black smiling faces was very proud.
The kind of pride that a farmer feels when he has a harvest from his labor.
Wang Yi saw that the big man's fist was indeed the size of a human fist, but this kind of fist was rare, and only one woman had fished such a big one.
In addition, the women caught a lot of touches - touch is the common name for barnacles in the locals.
In this way, he was moved and didn't know what to do for a while, he definitely couldn't go away, but he was quite scared if he participated:
Connails and barnacles grow in the most precipitous parts of the reef beach, and the team doesn't come to catch them on weekdays, because it's thankless.
After all, in these years, the fishermen have not lacked conch and sea shells to eat.
Wang Yi thought about it and decided that he still had to take the lead.
To be a leader, you can't just give benefits to your subordinates, but you have to charge forward everywhere so that your subordinates sincerely admire him.
Wang Xianghong did a very good job of this, and the old branch secretary really engraved the words of hardship in the front and pleasure in the last eight words into his cadre career.
Wang Yi doesn't look handsome, handsome, and polite, in fact, he is still very strong and ruthless in his heart, for example, he used to like to watch basketball, and then he felt that Stephen Curry in the NBA was most like me.
Wang Xianghong's production team cadres did a good job, Wang Yi held back his strength, he wanted to do better than the old branch secretary.
So he asked the women to come up and rest, and said, "Wait for me, but when I come back, I will lead you to do it, and you will be able to get twice the result with half the effort." β
He took his umbrella back to the peak store with an umbrella and braved the wind, changed into a raincoat and went to get a few ponchos to take to the cliffy waters behind the island.
Women are sheltering from the rain under trees.
Some people's coats have been around for years, and after years of wind and rain and lack of maintenance, some grass blades will fall off, causing water leakage, so they take off their coats and help each other to repair them.
When Wang Yi saw it, he said: "Give me all these things, come, comrades, come over and change a poncho with a coat." β
"What is a poncho?" Zhang Panhong asked.
The other women had not heard of the poncho either, they had only seen the raincoat and had never seen the poncho.
Wang Yi sent down the poncho, one for each person, and he counted it.
This poncho was one of the earliest living materials he prepared, and the peasants who came and went in the rain definitely needed a raincoat and poncho.
It's just that he didn't expect this year to be a big drought year, and the summer was so dry that there was no rain, and his poncho and raincoat didn't come in handy.
Generally speaking, men use more raincoats and women use more ponchos - don't be in a hurry to box, it depends on the nature of the work.
Fishermen are going to work at sea, and the most important thing to work at sea is to be crisp and neat, so the raincoat is close to the body and has sleeves and trouser legs, so as not to delay the work at sea.
The women of the fishermen often collected the dried fish and the supplies of their daily life, so that they needed to be able to protect them in the rain, so that the ponchos were wide and wore them like the burqa worn by Arab women.
The poncho should be even wider, not to mention hiding an AK-47 in it, even an RPG is no problem.
Wang Yi has always wanted to recommend this thing to the beautiful and traitorous gunslingers.
With this thing, what kind of gun did the real person carry when he ate chicken? Hide a bazooka in it, carry it directly to the target location and shout 'fire-in-the-hole', and the media effect is very good.
Now he handed the raincoat to the women and said, "It's easy to put on, just put it on." β
The women put it on one by one, and you look at me, and I look at you, and then they laugh:
"Mr. Wang, this is called a poncho? What was this, I thought it was a cloak. β
"Isn't that better than a cloak to protect from the rain? Good guy, this thing is amazing, you can see that you are not afraid of wind and rain after you go out. β
"Yes, it's still with a brim, you see I look up at the rain, and the rain can't hit my face and neck."
Wang Yi said: "You can exchange my poncho with your coat, and wear a poncho when it rains in the future, how wide do you see it?" When the time comes, he will hold a basket in his arms, and he will not be afraid of being drenched in the rain if he holds anything in the basket. β
Liu Xiaoying said happily: "Yes, yes, this thing is too good to shelter from the wind and rain, such a big tarpaulin clothes, I don't have to be afraid of how much rain it is." β
"What kind of material is this?" Another woman, Harumi, asked, twisting the fabric and saying, "Doesn't it look like a tarpaulin?" It's not a plastic sheet, it's thick and heavy, and the general wind can't blow it, right? β
Wang Yi said: "This seems to be called Oxford cloth ......"
"Ah, made of cowhide bands?" Liu Xiaoying was surprised, "No wonder it still has a little elasticity, it turns out that this is beef tendon cloth." β
Wang Yi laughed and said: "It's not made of cowhide bands, but it is indeed elastic because of cowhide bands." β
He told the women to pay attention to the collar:
"There is a bungee cord here, which can strengthen the rain hat on the head, and then you have to find the waist, and there is also a drawstring on the waist, which is used to prevent the wind, and if the wind is too strong, use the drawstring to fix the waist."
Then he pointed to the sides of the poncho:
"There's a zipper in it, if you tighten the drawstring around your waist, then put your arms out of the zipper on both sides, well, it's not like a raincoat and doesn't have sleeves, so you'll have to roll up your sleeves and ......"
The women immediately fell in love with the poncho.
Because it's not just a tarpaulin, but a lot of mechanisms, which is amazing!
After listening to Wang Yi's introduction, they studied it on their own, some tightened the brim of their hats, some pulled up the waist rope, and some stretched out their arms:
"How did Sister Xiaoying pull it? Why can't I pull it? β
"Oops, this zipper is so good, I can't even see it, it's so slippery to pull up."
"Haha, Mr. Wang, you can get some good things, where did this high-tech product come from?"
Wang Yi said with a smile: "Don't talk about high-tech at every turn, these are all simple things, you haven't seen the real high-tech yet, and the day after tomorrow Teacher's Day, I'll show you a real high-tech." β
He took off his shoes and pulled up his trouser legs to go into the water, and said, "Let's go, let's find the fist and knock together!" β
Seeing him go into the water, Zhang Panhong grabbed him and said: "Teacher Wang, this place is very dangerous, don't go down, you don't go into the water on weekdays, you don't touch this situation, it's very dangerous." β
Wang Yi said lightly: "With so many of you experts by my side, can I still be swept into the sea by the waves?" β
"I can't go down this roll, the wind is not strong today, and the waves are not big." Harumi said.
Wang Yi said: "Isn't this enough? If the waves can't sweep people away, then don't be afraid. β
Harumi hurriedly said: "But the underwater terrain here is very steep, if you don't touch the situation, you may accidentally get scratched and tripped, and it will not be good if you fall into the water." β
Wang Yi said: "Isn't this learning from you? β
"There's got to be the first time you got in the water, didn't you? Today, there are many people and many masters, and I am not afraid of danger when I go into the water, and in the future, there will be fewer people and fewer masters, and I will encounter danger again, so isn't it more troublesome? β
Hearing his firmness, the women stopped persuading him.
Liu Xiaoying helped the woman next to her tie the waist rope tightly, and said: "Teacher Wang, you are different from ordinary young people, I have seen many intellectual young people in the past ten years, they are as educated as you, but they don't have the determination of you." β
"Yes, those people are as eloquent as Mr. Wang, but they are not really equal pay for equal work with our working people like Mr. Wang."
Wang Yiwan smiled and said: "I am also a working person." β
"You are a college student, and college students are all state cadres." The women said firmly.
Conches are large but few in number, and they are hidden in stone pits, so they are generally difficult to find.
Barnacles are much easier to find in comparison, there are many barnacles, they grow in patches on stones, and they even grow on the shells of fist snails.
To knock barnacles, it is generally necessary to work in the big tide around the first and fifteenth days of the lunar calendar.
Because of the large tidal drop at this time, the barnacles that are submerged during the small tide can be exposed one by one, and it is easier to knock the barnacles with a large number of large and fat meat.
There are quite a lot of barnacles in the outer islands.
An island like Tianya Island, which has been inhabited for generations, is just like the dangerous place of some uninhabited stone islands, and you can often see dense barnacles of different sizes and large numbers.
No one usually comes at the bottom of the cliff behind Tianya Island, so a lot of fat barnacles are raised.
They are plump, grayish-white cones in shape, and look like miniature volcanoes.
After Wang Yi got into the water, he saw a few barnacles, Liu Xiaoying handed him a shovel and said, "Knock and touch with this." β
Barnacles secrete a glue that contains a variety of biochemical components and strong adhesive strength, which is the secret of their ability to cling to the reef despite the ebb and flow of wind and rain.
The adhesion is terrifying, and it's not easy to smash barnacles without this unique shovel but with something else.
Wang Yi gritted his teeth and knocked hard with a shovel from the reef under the barnacle, and Chunmei beckoned to him and said, "Don't waste this effort, go, lead you to find the back touch." β
Barnacles can grow anywhere, as long as there is an active tide, they can be seen, such as docks, the bottom of boats, and reefs.
They grow not only on wood and stone, but also on each other's backs.
Therefore, people with dense phobia cannot see barnacles, and in many places barnacles grow layer after layer on the rock!
The already dense cluster of barnacles is stacked with a dense layer of barnacles, and this kind of scene is exciting when you think about it!
Fishermen love this scene so much.
This kind of barnacle that grows in layers has different names, and the epiphysis on the upper layer is what Harumi calls 'back touch'.
Because they are not attached to the reef, the meat does not have the slightest sandy smell, and it is more tender than the bottom ones, which are grown on the reef.
Wang Yi walked in the seawater, and the tide was surging and impacting his calves again and again.
The reef under his feet was staggered, and he walked very carefully, but once when the tide receded, he inadvertently glanced at it:
See a fist snail!
The fist snail looks a little ugly, and barnacles are easy to grow on the shell, so you can't see the original appearance, and it is even uglier.
However, the snail meat is large and delicious, and every spring to summer is the most delicious season for the snail meat, and now the summer is not far away, and the current snail meat is bigger and fatter, and it still exudes a delicious taste.
Wang Yi picked up this fist snail, which was not small, like a persimmon.
He picked it up and showed it to the women.
The women smiled and congratulated him: "Mr. Wang, you can make a white cut at night, this snail is big, and it will definitely be able to make a white cut." β
As the name suggests, white cutting is to boil and then cut it, cook the conch in white water, pick out the meat, and slice it with a knife.
Another person came up with an idea: "There is a large sauce in the sales department, isn't it a new sweet noodle sauce?" Let's make a sauce fist snail, it tastes good. β
Wang Yi asked, "How do you make sauce explosion?" β
The women instructed him: "Cut the snail meat into white first, slice it and fry it in the pot with sauce, so that the taste is salty and fresh, and it can be eaten." β
"Yes, the main thing is that the fried snail meat is still very chewy, it is fried by the sauce, the more you chew, the more flavorful, it is indeed more delicious."
When it comes to eating, the big guys are energetic, and the atmosphere is even more enthusiastic.
Then the women shifted their eating style from fist snails to barnacles, after all, more barnacles were harvested.
The most common type of barnacle is boiling.
The women taught Wang Yi: "Mr. Wang, if you can't eat these touches, then you can do touch drying, smear a little salt on the touches, and dry them in the sun, so that you can keep them for a year." β
"Yes, there are many ways to eat by touch, take a few when you drink, eat one to take a sip of wine, and feel comfortable."
"It's certainly not as delicious as fresh to the touch, but it's still quite fresh when it's dried, and you can put it away to make a fresh noodle soup or make the soup fresh, that's the best thing."
"This is not an exaggeration, Mr. Wang, you can dry it to the touch, put a few pieces in it when making soup and soup, and the taste will be different all of a sudden."
Wang Yi smiled: "Okay, then let's get more touch today and go back to do touch drying." β
The women said, "Don't worry, when you can't go to work, we'll come to you to find a touch." β
The big guy chatted warmly, and he was more energetic to work.
Wang Yi's harvest here is not as good as that of the women.
Barnacles stick to the stone with great force, but the women have been knocking since childhood, and they have become skilled in doing this work.
Wang Yi would only swing the shovel at the reef, while the women saw the barnacles and shook the shovels skillfully, aiming at the junction between the bottom of the barnacles and the reef with a crisp blow:
With a 'pop' sound, the sturdy barnacles on the outside will be knocked off directly, so that they can shovel the barnacle meat into the small tin paint bucket they carry with them.
The rain has not been heavy or small, and they have been busy.
Even if they don't go to work, the members still maintain the habit of going to work, and when the bell rings and the students run out of the classroom laughing, they will put away their shovels and go back to the shore to rest.
When the bell rings and the students go back to class, they get up and get back to work.
They worked until the students got out of school, and they went ashore to wipe their legs and feet and put on their shoes, while Liu Xiaoying sorted and packed up barnacles, fist snails and other conch shells and helped Wang Yi carry them to the top of the mountain.
Seeing the ponchos on their bodies on the road, adults and children were curious, and some people came up and asked:
"Xianghai and his daughter-in-law, what are you wearing?"
"How is it like a tarpaulin? But the color is strangely beautiful, and this big red is really bright. β
The women were very proud, and let go of the waist rope to show the members: "This is a poncho, which is sold in Mr. Wang's store." β
Wang Yi said: "You can also use a coat and a hat to exchange, one set for another." β
The clothes and hats are old objects, which can be brought to the 22nd year to hang on the walls of the production team's big stove as decorations.
Raincoats and ponchos were certainly worth more than hats in those days, and they were excellent industrial products.
So there was a lively time on the top of the mountain, and those who had clothes and hats at home took them to the store to exchange for a poncho.
There are still some families at the foot of the mountain who are quarreling:
"You said that you are a bear man, you can't live, and the clothes at home have been kept in the wing room and don't obstruct your eyes, what do you say you threw it away? Yes? What are you doing when you throw it away! Why don't you throw yourself away! β
The strong laborers who had returned early were resting at home, and they were all dumbfounded when they learned that the clothes and hats they had previously despised could now be exchanged for the ponchos that the women loved so much.
This time, they were at a loss, so they could only let their daughter-in-law scold.
But there is also a spirit, saying, "What are you yelling about, what are you yelling about?" We don't have any clothes at home, don't you still have them at your parents? β
"That bear thing is worthless and no one uses it, I want to come back, go to Mr. Wang's to change a poncho!"
Wang Yi handed over the work of the store department to Wang Xinguo, Wang Xinzhao and Wang Choumao, and he cleaned up the barnacles and fist snails with Ma Liu.
Barnacles are best eaten fresh.
Blanched barnacles are simple, wash them and make a small pot of hot water and throw them in to cook - there are two things to keep in mind about this method.
One point is that there should be less water, because barnacles are very delicious, so the soup that boils out of white cannot be thrown away, and it is particularly fresh.
One point is that the heat should be just right, and the barnacles will taste much worse when they are boiled.
In addition, there is another method that is very authentic for fishermen, that is, to put it on a plate and steam it across the water.
Put the barnacles on a plate, except for a sprinkle of salt to give it a taste without any seasoning, just eat it as it is.
Put the plate on the grate and steam it slowly over low heat, which also needs to control the heat, so these two methods are simple but Wang Yi can't do it.
Wang Yi made a complicated one.
There is a dish of spicy fried clams on the beach, he went to the vegetable garden to pull a green onion and made some dried chilies, just use these two ingredients, fry the green onion and chili pepper in oil and then fry the barnacles, and simply fry it out of the pot.
Spicy!
The colander also made the steamed barnacles over there, and when I opened the lid, the barnacles on the plate were covered with a layer of things that looked like egg flowers and tofu flowers.
It's all protein.
It's also very tasty.
Xu Heng washed his hands and came over to help, he leaned up and looked at it and said, "What is this thing so disgusting?" β
"Then don't eat it." Colander joked with him.
Xu Heng smiled: "Don't, it's disgusting, but I have to eat it!" β
The unique fragrance of barnacles came along the heat, and Wang Yi took chopsticks to pick a piece of steamed egg white from the barnacle and put it into his mouth.
Well, it's soft and white, and it's delicious!
The colander brings out the barnacles and the boiled snails, and the small ones are put on the plate, and the large ones are cut and sliced.
Wang Yi used horseradish and soy sauce to make a simple sauce to dip in the snail meat and eat.
The colander went to move the oven out and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, I'll make you something delicious." β
The big fist snail has been fleshed, and only an empty shell remains.
Add some water to the colander, stuff a little of the soaked vermicelli into it, and then make garlic sauce and stuff it into it and grill it together.
Wang Yi looked at it and exclaimed: "Okay, Mr. Leak, you still have such a dish?" β
The garlic ingredients used in the colander are different from those that have been popular in 22 years, he used leeks, minced garlic, and coriander, cut some meat foam into it and fried it in oil to make a sauce, which tasted very fragrant.
Xu Heng and Sun Zhengnan had never seen this practice, and they crossed their arms and joined in the fun: "What is this?" Can it be delicious? β
The colander smiled: "As soon as I heard this, I knew that you hadn't eaten a good dish, this is garlic vermicelli, you can steam scallops or make prawns, and it is delicious to cook it with a snail shell, this is a former court dish!" β
Wang Yi thought it was a Northeast barbecue dish.
It was raining outside, and I couldn't eat under the tree today, so Wang Yi asked Xu Heng to bring the dishes to the counter of the store department.
There are very few people who will come to change the poncho, and the members of the club have changed into ponchos and gone home to see the freshness.
And it's raining today and there are no movies, so the store department is quite quiet.
Wang Yi leaned on the counter and took out four cups, and brought a glass of white wine to Sun Zhengnan, Xu Heng and Zhu Zhenxue, and a glass for himself.
He poked out the barnacle meat with chopsticks with one hand, picked it into his mouth and enjoyed it slowly, the original mellow seafood touched the taste buds!
Take another sip of liquor and get energized!
Some members came to buy things, and when they saw them drinking and eating barnacles and snail meat together, they were very envious, so they also ordered a glass of white wine and mixed a few slices of snail meat to eat.
It's not a novelty for them to eat too much seafood, so they don't eat it after taking a bite: "Such a good wine, and then use this thing as a snack?" It's a waste, Mr. Wang will give me some chili sauce. β
Wang Yi used a small plate to fill a little chili sauce and two pieces of tofu.
Seeing this, several members immediately gave up barnacles and conch circles them.
One of them went to the big stove to pinch a straw stalk, and then came back and used the slender straw stalk to rub it on the chili sauce or tofu and stuffed it into their mouths, took another sip of wine, smashed it again, and squinted their eyes full of enjoyment.
Wang Yi said to Xu Heng: "This is a serious drinker, look at you, you are a foodie!" β
Xu Heng said: "You are the principal, I admit what you like to say." β
He put on a posture that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and Wang Yi suddenly ran out of options.
A colander came up with a plate of roasted garlic vermicelli in conch shells.
Garlic is fragrant!
The shell is still hot, and the soup inside is still bubbling hot.
The colander habitually wiped his hands and smiled: "While it's hot, it's all hot." β
Hearing this, Xu Heng and Sun Zhengnan glanced at each other and suddenly burst into laughter.
The colander asked suspiciously, "What are you laughing at?" β
Xu Heng took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "You said this while it was hot, I remembered what the veterans told us about the 62-year counterattack against India." β
Wang Yi remembered what they had said before, and asked, "Are you talking about the third brother of Tianzhu using a cow to slap the cannon pipe while it is hot after the mortar is fired?" Is this true or false? β
The member next to him immediately became interested when he heard this: "Really? Definitely fake! Mortars are cannons, how can this man's cow scare him! β
"That's it, after the cannon was fired, didn't it mean that the barrel was hot? This guy stuffed the cow in it and roasted the cow? β
"Hahaha, they're hungry, aren't they?"
Xu Heng wasn't sure if this was true or not, after all, arranging enemy jokes in the army was a means of relaxation.
But when he saw that the members questioned his words, he was upset and said, "What do you know? Mortars are cannons but small cannons, and Soviet Russia has a small-caliber mortar called a shovel mortar, with a caliber of only 37 mm. β
"The temperature of the barrel of this mortar will not be very high after a shot, but oil must be used to maintain the barrel, Tianzhu and the three don't know why they don't use lard and butter, they use mutton fat, and the mutton fat is very slippery after being smeared on the barrel!"
As soon as he introduced this, things suddenly became operational, and the members were dumbfounded: "Is this true?" Are they crazy? β
Xu Heng gave Sun Zhengnan a look for help.
Sun Zhengnan thought for a while and said: "The Tianzhu soldiers can indeed do some stupid things, for example, our all-army combat hero Pang Guoxing, deputy squad leader, once surrounded an artillery position of the Tianzhu army, but the enemy not only surrendered, but also dared to return fire on our army!" β
Hearing this, the members said: "Our all-army combat heroes led the troops to surround them, and they still dare to fight back?" β
"Indeed, they really don't give birth to old heifersβthey're terrible!"
"How many men did the battle hero of our army lead at that time to surround their artillery positions?"
Sun Zhengnan said: "Two." β
