Zhao Chuanliang pondered the problem of food there.

Too many questions.

How to give?

What about the price?

Now what is the price of grain outside, everyone knows very well in their hearts.

It's expensive, and the village can't afford it.

Cheap, fools will be suspicious.

And if he doesn't get more food at home, his family is not at ease, and he is not at ease if he gets too much.

Thinking of this, he walked out of the courtyard, came to the straw pile next to the courtyard wall, and quietly entered the space.

When he came in, he took out all kinds of grain from the warehouse.

Everyone knows what the price of all kinds of food is.

Then make one that you can't recognize!

Thinking of this, he got some colored things out.

Red beans, mung beans, black beans, sorghum, soybeans, a little bit of each, a little bit of wheat, and the rest are all corn.

As his thoughts followed, everything turned into powder.

Mixed together, a brownish-black flour appears in front of you.

Looking at this brown and black flour, Zhao Chuanliang pondered, these can't be recognized, right?

But he thought about it for a while, and shook it in the casserole in the east and west room a few times, which suddenly made his brows furrow again.

The weight of the contents is different, and it is layered after a while.

I can probably still see some of the situation.

After thinking for a while, his eyes lit up.

As his thoughts moved, some of the powder in the casserole was separated and gradually compressed into a brick-sized brick.

If you don't look closely, you'll think it's an adobe brick!

You can't tell what it is, can you?

After weighing it, it looked like it was about 4 pounds, which was quite heavy.

It felt okay, and he made another one.

The two bricks were put together and touched, and suddenly there was a clangling sound, which was still very hard.

If this brick goes down, it is estimated that the head will bloom.

After getting it done, he walked out of the space directly and headed home.

When he came back, the meal was not yet good, and the second child looked at him with a brick and was puzzled for a while.

"Third child, what are you doing with bricks?"

Zhao Chuanliang took the thing and handed it to him with a smile: "Look, this is a good thing, can you see what is famous?" ”

After taking the things, Zhao Chuanjun took it in his hand and looked at it.

Touched it again together.

"Aren't they just two adobe bricks? What's so strange? It's just that the color is a little different. ”

Zhao Chuanliang smiled.

Because of the material used, the color of the adobe bricks must be different, unless they are all excavated from one place.

Then he looked at Zhao Tiegen: "Dad, take a look, can you see any fame?" ”

Zhao Tiegen was also puzzled and took a look.

I didn't see anything famous for a while, but muttered, "This brick is quite neat." ”

However, thinking of his son's special explanation, he still studied it carefully.

There must be some doorways.

When Zhao Chuanliang heard this, he felt that next time he should not be so thoughtful, otherwise it would not be normal.

"Huh!"

In his thoughts, Zhao Tiegen was surprised, only to see him put the brick on his nose and smell it.

"It smells like grain!"

Then she looked up at him.

Zhao Chuanliang nodded, "You take a bite and taste it!" ”

Hearing his words, Zhao Tiegen took a bite with his teeth.

However, it was pressed too tightly and did not gnaw for a while.

After thinking about it for a while, I went to the kitchen and got a kitchen knife, and tapped it vigorously with the back of the knife, and then knocked down something the size of my thumb.

Put it in your mouth and chew it for a while.

In the end, he was surprised and said, "It's really food!" Where did this come from? ”

"Sold in the city, 5 cents a piece."

This price is already about the same as the price rationed in the city.

The pure corn flour in the city used to be 9 cents, but now it is 1 mao 1, which is about 4 catties, and it is also 2 or 3 cents.

Many of the grains in this are good things, and there are a small amount of soybeans that supplement protein.

More nutritious than pure corn.

If you put it in a pot and cook it, it's a pile of paste, and no one can tell it.

Although it is mixed together, the smell of corn can still be smelled a little.

"Okay, it's time to eat."

As he spoke, his mother's voice came from the kitchen.

Everyone else went to get food, but Zhao Tiegen and Zhao Chuanliang didn't move, and they were still studying this grain brick there.

Zhao Tiegen hesitated for a moment and asked, "Can this really be eaten?" What does this do? ”

"I went to the black market in the city to make food, and I happened to meet an acquaintance, he said that this has been sold for a long time, and he can manage it."

Zhao Chuanliang said nonsense and looked at him quietly.

Hearing his words, Zhao Tiegen hesitated.

Asked solemnly, "Is this a big amount?" Can you buy a lot of them? ”

"I think there are quite a few! There should be quite a lot. ”

Zhao Tiegen thought for a while and came to the kitchen with a piece of grain.

Yang Huaihua, who had just come in, watched him go out, and wondered for a while: "What are you doing?" It's time to eat! ”

"You eat first!"

After that, I went to the kitchen, and the pot where the soybeans were boiled was not washed, but I just added some water and put the bricks in it.

Go under the stove and cook it.

He only came back after he had it done.

"Cook there first, and we'll see later! Eat first. ”

After saying that, he sat down at the table.

The wowotou of pure corn noodles is very soft and rotten when it is steamed well, and it tastes better if it is fermented.

With a bowl of soybean soup, everyone happily ate it.

Except for the wolf meat corn rice I ate last time, I was the happiest this time.

And the people were well fed.

In the middle, Zhao Tiegen went to the kitchen from time to time, used a spatula to break up the periphery of the grain bricks, and continued to cook the hard things inside.

More than an hour later, it was already dark.

In everyone's curiosity, a brick was boiled into a pile of batter.

Zhao Tiegen was already anxiously scooping a little with a spoon and putting it in his mouth.

Then his eyes lit up and he said: "It's really food, and there is no sand at all, it must be food." Ryoko, where, you take us to buy some. Saving this piece is enough for us to eat for a day. There are 200 yuan, and you don't have to worry about it this winter. ”

The important thing is that it's cheap!

A dime and a pound.

Although it is much more expensive than the price of harvested grain, it is more than a pound and a dime in this period The price of cabbage.

No, cabbage in the city is also expensive now.

Zhao Chuanliang shook his head, 200 yuan is only 800 catties, 100 catties per capita, what's the use!

500 is about the same.

After all, the family is half the size of the child, and if you eat twice as much, you will eat half full.

Then he smiled and said, "It's okay, this guy doesn't need to worry." Tomorrow I will go into the city and ask him to leave me a little. ”

Zhao Tiegen bowed his head slightly: "Okay, you get more, your grandfather's side, and your aunt's side also get some, they are not rich in food." ”

"Okay, I see, that's for sure!"

Dad is a younger sister who married into the production team next door, not far from here, next door to Grandpa Zhuangzi.
