Chapter 56: Making Bacon

The two tables that the family later added were moved to the yard and put together, and the high butcher and Su Lao Er, and then called a few villagers who came to see the excitement to help, and several people moved the big fat pig on the ox cart to the table.

"Uncle Gao, I plan to sell bacon for sale, you cut it for me beautifully, the two hind legs of the pig are going to be made into ham, and you can do the rest at will."

"Okay, Miss Su, you can take a look, I'll let you see your uncle's craftsmanship today."

The high butcher also has a small ten years of killing pigs, and the kung fu in his hands is not bad, and he unloads all the pig's heads and trotters in three or two and puts them in a wooden basin on the side. Changed the axe knife to split the pig in two, then used a razor to shave off the pig's ribs and put it aside, and changed the knife to remove the pig's front and rear legs. In the end, the remaining meat was changed to pork belly one by one, and the size of the meat was about the same, about two catties. Su Yu was very satisfied with the knife skills of the high butcher, saving a lot of trouble at home.

After half an hour's effort, a big fat pig became four large pots in the hands of the high butcher, one pot is all kinds of pig water, one pot is the modified pork belly, in one pot is the front and rear legs of the pig, and finally the rest is lard.

"Uncle Gao, your skills are getting better and better, I plan to do bacon business in the future, and I will buy pigs at your house when I finish it."

"That's a good feeling, if you take it at my house for a long time, Uncle will give it to you cheaper at that time."

"Thank you, uncle."

As soon as the high butcher left, the Su family was also busy, bringing the pork belly to be prepared for pickling to the table, sprinkling the seasoning mixed before, and then pouring soju and salt, and handing over the rest of the kneading work to his father, his own small body really didn't have much strength.

Su Lao Er took over the job, and after kneading, the bacon was stacked in another basin, and the husband and wife went to the stove house to put it away. After that, the pork ribs were processed, and at first Su Yu planned to make cured pork ribs, and like the previous marinated bacon, the ingredients were evenly wiped and moved into the house. Finally, there are the two hind legs of the pig. Su Yu planned to make ham, evenly coated the two hams with seasoning, smeared a thick layer of salt on the outer layer, put a lot of stones in the corner of the room, put a board on it, put the two hind legs on it, and then put a board on it, and finally pressed the stones, and it should be about the same for twenty days.

While the father and daughter were dealing with this, Lian went to the river with a pot of pig's intestines to clean it, and now he has returned. Bacon is made of pork belly, the remaining front leg meat is some, mother and daughter are chopped and mixed with seasoning to start making sausage, the tools of ancient enema are not very convenient, and every household uses bamboo tube sausage. After filling the bamboo tube with meat, one end is covered with casing, and the other side takes a smaller bamboo tube and presses it down, and so on, and so on, it took the family half a day to finish it. The rest is the pig in the water, the Su fish is not wasted, directly to the pot of marinated, the taste of the Su family's marinated pig in the water, directly floated half of the village, at night, which family has no heart to eat, there are children crying and clamoring to eat meat, and are beaten by adults and scream.

I am complaining about the Su family in my heart, your family eats meat, why do you make it so fragrant, crying for the baby in the family, this is not going to let people pass.

The Su family didn't have any consciousness, when it was almost dark, Su Lao Er went to send one to the village chief's family, and the Lian family went to send one to Yang Ermei's family.

Yesterday, the village chief's family went to visit relatives, and none of them were at home, and when they came back and heard what happened to the Su family, the family was angry that Mrs. Liu lost the people in Yujia Village. The village chief planned to let his eldest son go to Su's house in the evening, but he didn't expect Su Lao Er to come.

"Second child, that Mrs. Liu is such a person, you must not worry about her, she doesn't have a long memory of how much she suffers. Man Jiang is a good one, but there is such a mother, and her life is not decent. ”

"Uncle, I know what you said, and I won't care about Mrs. Liu's incident this time, it's just that people like this will not dare to be contaminated by my family in the future."

The village chief sighed in his heart, and didn't say anything in the end, it was all his own sin, he wanted to help Mrs. Liu, and it is estimated that people would not appreciate it if they knew.

The next day, the Lian family went to Yang Ermei's house and asked them if they wanted to do a pig water business, and if they wanted to do it, they could get the goods from her house.

When Yang Ermei heard that there was such a good thing, how could she disagree, the pig's head meat sent by the Su family last night, his family ate it with a mouth full of oil, and it smelled weird and fragrant, and now I still drool when I think about it, and I don't know what the Su family did.

"Auntie, my family will do this business, and when the time comes, let Doudou's father sell it, but it's just your family's work, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it."

"These are all small things, I'm just here to ask, if your family wants to do it, I'll keep it for your family. There was still a lot of brine left yesterday, you asked Zhushan to pick a crockpot and go to my house to get it, and the price was five cents a catty. ”

"Cheng, I'll let Doudou's father go over later."

After a while, Xu Zhushan came over, picked up a burden, and put a crockpot at one end.

"Auntie."

"Zhushan is here, bring in the crockpot, and my aunt will bring you the brine."

Yesterday, I ate some of the water and gave it away, and the remaining two crockpots were half a jar each.

"Auntie, I don't even know what to say."

Xu Zhushan is not a person who doesn't know what to do, so he naturally knows that the Su family did all this in order to repay his wife and daughter-in-law for helping him two days ago.

"It's all neighbors, and no one in my family has time to sell it, so it's better to give it to someone than to sell it. But Zhushan, how much do you plan to sell the brine for a catty? ”

"Auntie, I'm going to sell it for eight cents a catty."

"You kid is too real, you listen to your aunt, sell it for ten cents a pound, and carry the burden to sell it in the alleys of the town."

This price was also what Su Yu told the Lian family in advance, otherwise the Lian family would not have remembered it.

The Xu family plans to sell it for eight cents a catty, this pig is delicious in the water, and they are afraid that others will shake their heads when they hear that it is made by pigs. Now the aunt said that he should sell it for ten cents a catty, you must know that pork is only sold for ten cents a catty, and someone will really buy pork to buy this pig into the water?

"There are not many goods today, you sell ten wen first, if no one buys it in the end, you can reduce the price again, and sell it out before dark."

"I listen to my aunt."

As soon as Xu Zhushan carried the burden and left, it spread in the village, the smell of brine water was so big, and the smell was the same as yesterday from the Su family, how could the people in the village not know.

I heard that Xu Zhushan plans to sell pigs into the water, and some people want to buy some to taste, as soon as they heard that it costs ten pennies a pound, many people hesitated, and finally bought two or three, not much, one will buy a pound to taste, a pound sounds a lot, but which one is not a dozen mouths, divide it, and one can not divide two mouths.
