Chapter 56: Deliver lard

The seller immediately said the price loudly, and said that this was the lard that had just been pulled from the slaughterhouse in Nanchang, and it was the freshest.

Gao Mingcheng also glanced at it several times, a little moved.

At this time, the structure of urban and rural life has changed somewhat. The life of the people in the city is gradually getting better, and they begin to pursue health and weight loss, so lard is not easy to sell in the city, and most people in the city eat rapeseed oil and tea oil.

However, the demand for pork in the city is still very large, and many pigs are slaughtered in the slaughterhouse every day, and the extra lard will be purchased by some traders and then transported to the rural market to sell.

Unlike city dwellers, country dwellers are very keen to eat lard.

They lack oil and water in their stomachs, so they think that stir-fried vegetables with lard are more fragrant and tasty.

Usually they slaughter a pig here, and a pig only has two pairs of lard and a pair of water oil, if you want to buy lard, you have to rob it.

Gao Mingcheng also planned to buy some lard, but now the stall was full of people, and most of them were women, so he didn't want to squeeze it.

happened to be hungry, so he first went to the stall selling breakfast to eat a bowl of noodles and a few steamed buns, fried dough sticks and the like, and when he was full, those who wanted to buy lard had almost bought it, and at this time, Gao Mingcheng walked forward.

first asked the price, and then asked if the other party could agree to him exchange the rabbit for lard.

There are a lot of rabbits in the mountains, and with his current skills, he can hit them at any time if he wants to eat, and even the simple traps he made before have not been checked for several days.

The lard seller carefully examined the rabbits he had brought with him, and when he was sure that they were fresh, he agreed.

It's just that Gao Mingcheng wants to buy two pairs of lard, and it is not enough for these two rabbits to be replaced, so he added some money, and each pair of lard is rolled into a long one, and then folded in half with the leaves of the palm tree and tied in a knot at one-third, so that he can carry it in his hand.

After buying the lard, Gao Mingcheng looked left and right, and went to buy 50 catties of rice, the price of millet has risen every year in recent years, from the initial 30 yuan and 100 catties, it has risen to more than 40 yuan, and when it was 90 years, it rose to more than 60 yuan.

Because he was greedy for convenience, he bought rice directly, so the price was more expensive.

The bag of rice is a fertilizer bag, and after the fertilizer is used, it is taken to the pond to be washed and dried, and then it can be reused again.

After buying these two things, Gao Mingcheng didn't stay long and went back to Gaojia Village directly.

He carried fifty catties of rice on one side and two pairs of lard in one hand, which was very stylish to be honest, and attracted the attention of many people along the way.

It's okay if you don't know each other much, when you meet someone you know, you will inevitably have to say hello, and the other party will joke that Gao Mingcheng has made money and actually bought so many good things.

Gao Mingcheng said haha, saying that he brought it for others, as for whether those people believe it or not, Gao Mingcheng doesn't care.

The countryside is a net, and people are extremely connected to each other, and there are good and bad sides to this situation.

When people are in it, they will get used to this subtle state of life, but Gao Mingcheng has experienced later generations, and people in later generations advocate a sense of boundaries, not to mention ordinary neighbors, colleagues, parents, siblings, and even husband and wife.

Although Gao Mingcheng doesn't pay attention to the sense of boundaries, he is also a little uncomfortable with too enthusiastic socialization.

At this time, every household did not have much privacy to speak of, and even the fact that someone bought a pound of meat could spread throughout the village, and it was necessary to analyze why there was money to buy meat, why to buy meat, whether there were guests at home, or something like that.

Next, Gao Mingcheng walked briskly all the way, tried to avoid others, and quickly returned to Grandma Xi's house.

Grandma Xi and Gao Zhuang are not at home, and yesterday I heard that they were going to hoe grass in the field today.

Gao Mingcheng put down the rice and a pair of lard, and then took another pair of lard to many beautiful homes.

Last time, he said that he wanted to send some oil to many Meimei, and he originally planned to go to the cooperative to buy some soybean oil, but now when he meets a person who sells lard, he must send lard, and for malnourished people, eating lard is better for the body.

Before she reached Duomei's house, she saw Duomei wearing a straw hat and walking from a road, holding an empty kettle in her hand, and was about to go home to fill cold boiled water.

The two happened to meet, and each other's eyes bloomed with surprise.

"How beautiful!" Gao Mingcheng shouted loudly, lifted the lard in his hand again, and said with a smile: "I said I would send you oil last time, na, I will send you!" ”

Many beauties looked at the pair of lard, estimated to be five or six catties, and were happy and disapproving in their hearts.

She looked left and right, and when she didn't see anyone else, she breathed a sigh of relief, and she hurriedly said, "Why are you sending so much oil?" You only made ten dollars yesterday, do you have to spend it right away? ”

"I can't ask for this oil, you take it away!"

Many of the United States resolutely refused.

Gao Mingcheng secretly brought meat to her to eat before, and she was sweet in her heart, but she couldn't accept the lard sent by Gao Mingcheng.

The meat was caught by Gao Mingcheng himself, but the oil was bought with money.

She hopes that Gao Mingcheng can save more money so that they can afford to get married.

She expressed this wish and persuaded Gao Mingcheng to resell the lard to others.

The little daughter-in-law thought about herself, Gao Mingcheng's heart was like eating honey, he forcefully handed the lard to many beautiful hands, and said: "You can eat with confidence, I have money, and I will be ready for marriage." ”

But many beauties still refused to ask for it, and in the end, many beauties were only willing to keep about a pound of lard, and let Gao Mingcheng take the rest away.

Gao Mingcheng had no choice but to smile helplessly.

Many mana bamboo baskets covered the lard so that it would not be eaten by wild cats and mice, and filled a jug of cold boiled water.

"My second sister and I are working in the field, I am coming back to irrigate, I will go to the field soon, go back, I am leaving!" Many Mei said goodbye to Gao Mingcheng and went to the ground.

If she delays for a long time, her second sister will definitely scold her for being lazy again.

Gao Mingcheng carried most of the lard and watched many beauties leave, and he could only carry the things back to Grandma Xi's house.

Seeing that there was still some time, he simply cleaned the lard and then cut it into pieces and boiled the oil.

There are tips for boiling lard, you should put some water at the beginning, so that it is not easy to stick to the bottom of the pan, and the lard will be whiter.

This time there was a lot of lard, but it didn't matter, every household in their village used a big iron pot to cook rice, although a big iron pot is expensive, but if you use it carefully, it can be used for more than ten years.

The large iron pot has many benefits, one is to cook porridge, and the other is to cook pig food.

Some people who are not particular about it, the pot for cooking pig food and the pot for cooking rice are the same.
