XLVIII. Sea Salt
The afternoon sun is at its hottest.
Su Yin was resting in the cave when he saw Lin Xingchen dragging a sheep into the cave, but the survival value of the character actually dropped to 55%.
"For the sake of this sheep, how much is it worth to survive?" Su Yin teased.
"There are two people who don't have long eyes, and they want to fish in troubled waters."
"It doesn't seem like we've been able to take advantage of anything." After taking a closer look, Lin Xingchen has no other negative states except for the reduction of survival value.
"Thanks to your little buddy." Lin Xingchen said casually.
"Who? Shin Shin? Su Yin asked suspiciously.
"Well, someone wanted to rob, and we teamed up to solve it. Did me a favor. ”
Then he repeated what happened at that time to Su Yin.
"Have you eased your relationship?"
"I forgot about it a long time ago, I never minded her. She was the one who was obsessed with me. Lin Xingchen explained
Judging from Xinxin's initiative to help Lin Xingchen, I was relieved. Now the mouth is hard, but there is still a step away.
"Can you finish such a big one?" Su Yin couldn't help but start worrying about storage.
"There will be a way." Lin Xingchen was also helpless, he had fought so much to get the prey he had to survive, he didn't want to cheapen others, so he could only bring the whole sheep back.
Killing sheep and cleaning up is also a big project, and Su Yin offered to help.
The two of them cleaned up for a long time, peeled off the skin and bones of a sheep, and dismantled it into several parts, mutton, sheep's blood, sheep's whip, and sheep's horn were all materials that could be used.
Lamb and blood can be eaten directly in the game, and horns can be exchanged as tools.
But the mutton that was cut out was too much, and two people couldn't eat it all in 2-3 days.
What to do with this part of the lamb, in this environment, there is absolutely no room for waste.
"So many things, how to deal with them?"
"The temperature in the cave is relatively low, so it should be able to sit for 1-2 days, and then think of other ways tomorrow." Lin Xingchen was exhausted along the way, leaned against the cave, and began to rest.
"Mind if I help you get to the camp to deal with some?" Su Yin asked. Although this is the prey that Lin Xingchen caught himself, he should deal with it himself. But in this situation, if Su Yin doesn't help, the mutton and mutton blood will definitely cause waste, and she can't tolerate this happening.
"You can do whatever you want." Lin Xingchen closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, slowly recovering his survival value.
Su Yin poured the blood of the sheep into the bamboo tube, and the horns, whips, and internal organs of the sheep were all wrapped separately and placed in the bamboo basket.
Finally, there is the lion's share of mutton, mutton is a good thing, not only to fill the stomach but also to strengthen the body, to keep warm here, the night temperature on the island is very low, a bowl of mutton soup can ward off the cold.
First, cut the lamb into strips according to the amount of a meal, and then take it out and grill it. Only a small portion of the lamb was used, and a lot of lamb was too late to process.
After a busy day, Su Yin tasted two pieces first, which tasted good, and brushed with some maple syrup juice to make the fragrance stronger.
Lin Xingchen left two pieces for dinner, and left another five pieces to hang on the wooden frame, and the rest were wrapped and put into a bamboo basket.
After everything was ready, Su Yin carried the basket and walked out of the cave. Block the hole and head in the direction of the camp.
The evening of the camp is the busiest time of the day, when people who go out to hunt, gather fruit, and fish return with food, and everyone begins to exchange supplies at this time.
Various stalls have been opened, there is a shouting everywhere, and this place has been transformed into a small bazaar.
"Pure natural mountain spring water, absolutely pollution-free! Swap for food! ”
"Locally made spears, sharp and durable, are definitely the best choice for hunting. You can change all kinds of things, so let's take a look. ”
"Potatoes, sweet potatoes, wild vegetables. Come and see, it's all fresh. ”
"All kinds of bamboo products, bamboo tubes, bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets. Exchange anything, welcome to inquiry! ”
Su Yin found a suitable place and put the bamboo basket on the ground. Pick up a package of mutton and open it, and the fragrant mutton instantly attracts the attention of people on the street.
The hint of sweetness on the mutton makes people even more appetizing. On the island, supplies can meet the basic requirements of satiety. The proximity to the sea makes it possible to make a small amount of salt, but sugar is definitely a luxury on the island.
Following the sweetness, everyone slowly gathered.
Su Yin saw that the time was almost up, so he said loudly: "Delicious fresh mutton, there are those with and without sugar, only rare items are exchanged." Lamb is available in limited quantities and is obsolete. ”
Shin Shin was standing aside, holding a wild fruit in her hand and nibbling on it. She also has credit for this sheep, and she is secretly proud in her heart.
As a good friend, Shin Shin was naturally the first to step forward. She took out two rabbit skins and handed them to Su Yin: "Do you want this?" ”
Su Yin looked at her and laughed secretly, "Yes, this can only give you a sheep's heart and a piece of mutton." ”
"Great, I've always wanted to drink haggis soup, and finally I have a sheep's heart." Xinxin showed a happy expression on her face, but it was a little exaggerated.
"Here, your lamb." Su Yin handed over a bag of mutton.
Shin Shin bears the mutton and opens it immediately. A strong fragrance wafted out, and the people around began to swallow when they smelled the fragrance.
In everyone's envious eyes, Xinxin tasted a bite of mutton, and her eyes were round in an instant, and the surprise in her eyes was definitely not pretended.
She knew that Su Yin's cooking skills were good, the grilled fish before had amazed her, and the mutton was even more delicious in the world.
In contrast, what she had eaten in the past two days was nothing short of dark cuisine, the best she had ever tasted since entering a desert island.
Shin Shin is a good trust. For a while, as long as the life on the desert island was good, they all flocked to Su Yin, wanting to exchange for mutton.
"Wait. I haven't finished changing it yet. Xinxin suddenly stopped in front of everyone and shouted.
She didn't want to go on a mission with Lin Xingchen, but she couldn't resist such delicious mutton.
She turned her heart sideways, handed out 8 bamboo tubes, and said to Su Yin: "6 bamboo tubes are fresh water, and 2 bamboo tubes are sea salt." I want all the lamb in the basket. ”
Su Yin was secretly surprised in her heart, she couldn't imagine that Xinxin was so good in this game, and she was so worthy.
I opened them one by one and checked them, and as Shin Shin said, there were 6 bamboo tubes that were fresh water and 2 bamboo tubes that were sea salt.
Su Yin had a good expression on his face, and his heart was already happy, how much meat can be marinated with so much sea salt. This should be all the sea salt that Shin Shin has made since she went to the island, and it is exactly what she needs most now.
She immediately agreed, and simply handed all the bamboo baskets to Xinxin.
And all the horns and whips in it were to be given.
As soon as everyone saw that the mutton was gone, a few of them were about to start making trouble. Su Yin was thinking about whether to take Xinxin to escape.
Who knows, Xinxin lifted the basket and shouted: "The mutton continues to trade." Those who want lamb are lined up. ”
As soon as they heard this, the few people who wanted to make trouble suddenly quieted down, stretched out their heads and waited for the mutton.
Su Yin stood aside and looked at Xinxin, and suddenly sighed, this child is growing up so fast.
