Chapter 377: The finishing touch
"Being honest and doing things in a down-to-earth manner has always been the criterion I pursue."
Chen Fan taught while demonstrating, "The braised chicken must be sufficient, and it must not be sloppy, and the same is true for this dipping sauce, otherwise it will be the signboard of Lujiawan that will be smashed." ”
He raised the clay pot in his hand and said loudly, "Don't look at this is just a dipping sauce, but it is the essence of the pickled vegetables, no dipping sauce, no matter how delicious the pickled vegetables are, they can only score 90 points, with dipping sauce, you can score 99 points, and you are afraid that you will be proud ...... deducting one point."
Throughout the morning, Chen Fan soaked in the yard and taught them how to make braised vegetables.
Although the greater the number of people, the weaker the influence of the teaching halo, but after all, there is a level, and Chen Fan can also be called a generation of grandmasters in the craft of cooking, and the practice of lo-mei is not difficult.
With the concerted efforts of everyone, all the braised vegetables are out of the pot.
Set the braised chicken aside, pick out the chicken offal and place it according to different categories.
After it cooled down a little, Chen Fan picked a piece of chicken liver and threw it in his mouth, and nodded slightly, "It's okay." ”
Then he smiled at the few leaders standing next to him, "Come and taste it and see how it tastes." ”
Secretary Yang and the others were not ambiguous, and immediately strode forward,...... Then pick up small bits and pieces to eat.
Chen Fan's eyelids jumped when he saw it, "There are so many things, you don't need to be like this, right?" ”
Captain Zhang picked up a little bit of minced meat and threw it into his mouth, squinted his eyes and tasted it slowly, and when he heard Chen Fan's words, he immediately opened his eyes and said, "Well, it's delicious." It's a waste for us to eat something so delicious. ”
Secretary Yang ate a small piece of chicken intestines, and a little chicken liver, clapped his hands and nodded and said, "We discussed it just now, these things can't be made for nothing, and there is just more than half an hour to eat, so it is better to pull these things to the commune to sell, it is also a sum of money." ”
Chen Fan couldn't help but be stunned.
Although they were a little speechless, Secretary Yang's choice seemed to be a bit of a matter of course.
Before setting off to find a market in the county, the cash of the Lujiawan brigade was less than 100 yuan, and the braised chicken and chicken offal in front of them could be sold for more than 100 yuan, so it would be strange that they would be willing to eat it themselves.
After a pause, Chen Fan said helplessly, "But the commune stipulates that agricultural products can only be sold in the farmers' market, and these things cannot enter the vegetable market, where can you go to sell them?" ”
Captain Zhang said with a smile, "We have already discussed, we will send it to several major units in the commune, we don't set up stalls, we can always deliver it directly to the door!" ”
Secretary Yang also crossed his hands and pointed at Chen Fan and Ye Shubao, "You can go to the units in the county to find a market, and we can't lag behind, if you can't run far, you can go to the units in the commune to try your luck." ”
Xiao Liewen smiled from ear to ear, "If we can sell some, then we can also get a delicatessen workshop here, and then open a shop in the town to do business for a long time." ”
Chen Fan was choked up suddenly, squeezed out a smile and gave a thumbs up, "Amazing!" ”
Several leaders are well-founded and highly feasible, so Chen Fan will naturally not stop them.
Anyway, he did all the work that should be done, and let them arrange the rest by themselves.
He still has to do another thing now, that is, with Master Wang and them, assemble the small rows.
Before you get to work, though, there's another thing you have to do.
He hasn't eaten lunch yet.
……
When Secretary Yang and the others pulled 31 braised chickens and chicken offal to leave, and the female workers also dispersed, Chen Fan quickly beckoned to Zhang Wenliang, "Brother Tiger, go get two chickens." ”
Zhang Wenliang was stunned, "What are you doing?" ”
Chen Fan's eyes widened, "You don't want to eat braised chicken?" Bring two of your catches, one yours and one mine, and I'll give you one back tomorrow. ”
When Zhang Wenliang heard this, he immediately walked out, "Wait." ”
Chen Fan shouted in the back, "I want a rooster, and besides, get some more potatoes, and the potatoes can also be marinated." ”
An's eyes lit up next to him, "You can make some edamame, edamame is delicious." ”
Zhang Wenliang didn't make a gesture back, and hurriedly ran out.
Chen Fan looked at the safety, "Eh, why didn't you go with them?" ”
Safely touched his stomach, sighed and said, "I want to go, but Secretary Yang said that this time it was their turn to go out and not let me help." ”
Chen Fan, "But Captain Ye also went." ”
Security glanced at him, "That's because he's not hungry." ”
Saying that, he touched his stomach again, "I smelled the chicken for a long time, and as a result, I ate a piece of chicken liver, and I was even more hungry." ”
In the face of this kind of person, what else can Chen Fan do?
I could only wave my hand, "Then let's go cook rice." ”
Security clapped his hands together, "I'm good at this, just leave it to me." ”
After a while, Zhang Wenliang came over with a chicken in one hand and a basket in the other, and said with a red face, "I just happened to have a soft-shelled turtle there, so I brought it over." ”
Then he put the basket on the ground, "You want potatoes, and edamame, and I've got some cucumbers and tomatoes, so you can cook a good meal." ”
Chen Fan looked at the half basket of potatoes, "Why are there so many?" ”
Zhang Wenliang said with a smile, "This thing is not valuable, just make more, and if I can't finish it, I will take it back and give it to my family to taste." ”
Chen Fan smiled and waved at him, "Go to the backyard and call your sister over and help clean up together." ”
As a result, Zhang Wenliang stood in front of the moon gate in the middle courtyard and the backyard, and yelled inside, "Xiao'e, your master called you." ”
Zhang Cui'e's voice came immediately, "It's coming." ”
In the matter of cooking, the safety is slightly better, and he can cook, Zhang Wenliang belongs to the kind of person who doesn't have any expectations for him, so it was Chen Fan and Zhang Cui'e who did it.
Since they all started, Chen Fan also taught her the craft of cooking braised vegetables by the way, and the master and apprentice worked together, and in less than an hour, all the dishes were baked.
In order not to cross the flavor, a small pot was used to stew it separately, and when it was fished out, a table was full.
Safely took out a bottle of Yunhu Daqu from the cupboard, and said with a smile, "Lao Yang won't let us eat chicken, let's eat it ourselves, this bottle of wine was brought by me last time, and I haven't finished drinking it yet, so it just goes well." ”
As a result, Chen Fan took out a large clay pot again, filled it with some things, and stuffed it to the brim.
Then he closed the lid and smiled at them, "You eat slowly, I'll find another place to drink." ”
After speaking, he left with the clay pot.
Security couldn't help but be a little inexplicable, "Where did he go?" ”
Zhang Wenliang glanced at Chen Fan's back, guessed the answer at the first time, immediately took the wine bottle and poured the wine safely, and said with a smile, "Don't ask, just don't know." ”
Safety has also been in Lujiawan for several years, only after a pause of two seconds, he reacted, immediately raised his head and said "oh oh" twice, and then sure enough, like someone who was fine, he picked up the wine bowl and touched one with Zhang Wenliang, and after taking a sip, he turned his head to look at Zhang Cui'e who was holding the big bowl of dry rice, and said with a smile, "Xiao'ezi, what did your master teach you?" ”
……
Chen Fan walked towards Lu Siye's house with his head tied in the clay pot, and when the members saw him, they didn't greet him as usual, but just smiled and said nothing.
After passing through the narrow alley and walking for a short while, you will arrive at the door of Lu Siye's house.
At this time, Lu Siye was eating, he was holding a small wine bowl in his hand, and in front of him was a plate of braised rabbit meat left over from yesterday.
However, there is not much rabbit meat in it, but there are a few more potatoes.
Chen Fan walked in quietly, grinning softly, "Fourth Master, what about drinking?" ”
Lu Siye's hand holding the wine bowl immediately trembled, and he turned his face to look at him helplessly, "In the past, you only came back every three or five days, why did you run so diligently today?" ”
I didn't know you had such a good medicinal wine!
Chen Fan muttered in his heart, put the clay pot he was holding on the table, lifted the lid, and a rich aroma of marinade immediately rose.
He laughed and said, "You didn't smell the braised chicken just now?" Oh, this is ready to take the cooked food to the county to sell, the braised chicken is the first dish, there are braised duck and braised goose behind, the public chicken has been pulled to the commune by Secretary Yang and they are sold, this is my own chicken, and then made it alone, specially sent to you! ”
The word "deliberately", he deliberately added an accent.
What a character Lu Siye is, how could he not know his thoughts, and immediately laughed, "Oh, I know that you are a good boy who is filial, so what, when the thing is delivered, you can go and get busy with you, ah." ”
As he spoke, he closed the clay pot, "I'll keep this for the evening." ”
"Don't!"
Chen Fan sat down, took the lid off again, and said seriously, "In order to bring you food, I haven't eaten yet, so let's eat together, and I'll also drink with you." ”
After speaking, he ran to the cupboard, opened the cabinet door, took out a bottle of medicinal wine from it with bright eyes, turned around and ran back, "It's rare that your old man is very happy, I will accompany you to drink." ”
Fourth Master Lu's heart aches, how do you see that I'm happy?
Drink a little?
Let's have a bottle!
I can't live this day!
……
Chen Fan didn't eat much this time, and pressed the boiling qi and blood with all his strength, and poured all the bottle of wine into his stomach.
When he came out of the alley, he was still touching his stomach and thinking secretly. Counting what I drank yesterday, it is estimated that I will not be able to drink it again for at least half a month, so digest this wave first.
Master Lin's secret technique and the fourth master's medicinal wine, it can only be said that it is a perfect match!
As for the benefits, only Chen Fan knows it in his heart.
Anyway, if he runs into Lin Yuanxiang again, he is sure to fight back...... Of course this is not good, you have to respect the teacher, anyway, that's what it means.
……
I didn't enter the brigade headquarters, I went directly to the barn and rode the little mare, and then went to the 4th team.
After going up the embankment, the little mare ran wildly, and in less than 5 minutes, he ran to team 4.
That is, when they followed Captain Yang to inspect the river embankment, they met a group of children swimming and playing in the water.
Running down the embankment, I didn't wait to pass through a few large trees with dense foliage, and I saw dozens of logs of different lengths on a field.
Some are long, some are short, some are thick, some are thin, some are wide, some are narrow......
As a level 4 builder, Chen Fan has a variety of construction skills such as masons and carpenters, and he can see at a glance that this is a part of a ship.
The longest one is the keel, and the boxy planks of different lengths are the planks of the ship,...... These pieces of wood form the "flesh and bones" of the wooden boat, and after being assembled, it is a wooden boat.
The sound of the little mare's hooves had already alarmed the busy people, and Master Wang, who was working on a long piece of wood, frowned slightly, and turned to look at the place where the sound came from.
Before he could get angry, the smile on his face had already unfolded, and when he threw the planer in his hand, he clapped his hands to greet him, "Why is Mr. Chen free to come here today?" ”
Then he turned around and yelled, "What are you doing stopping?" Hurry. ”
As soon as he arrived at the edge of the field, Chen Fan turned over and dismounted, threw away the reins and took out a cigarette, handed one to Master Wang first, and then said with a smile, "Isn't it that the wooden boat will take another month or two to be launched, and the delivery of the prefectural committee cannot be delayed, so Secretary Yang will ......."
Before he could finish speaking, Master Wang patted his head violently, "I remembered, I remembered." ”
He smiled at Chen Fan and said, "You have to tie the small rows together and deliver them to the prefectural party committee and the county." Secretary Yang told me about this yesterday, and I didn't think about it for a while. ”
After finishing speaking, Master Wang turned around and didn't look at anyone specifically, just shouted at the top of his voice, "Push out all the small strokes that were prepared yesterday." ”
As soon as the words fell, dozens of workers on the apron immediately separated half and ran to one place.
When they came back, they all came out with carts pushing and pulling.
On the board cart is a small boat three or four meters long, the boat is set up on the board cart, one person in front pulls it, and four people push it in the back.
One car after another was pulled in front of Chen Fan, and then pushed onto the river embankment.
Master Wang lit a cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, pointed to the embankment, and said with a smile, "Teacher Chen, let's go up." ”
Chen Fan reacted and nodded with a smile, "Okay." ”
Walking side by side with Master Wang, they soon went up to the embankment, and at this time the six rows were moved to the ground and put away, and the carpenters stood aside, waiting for Master Wang's instructions.
Master Wang looked at Chen Fan and said with a smile, "Teacher Chen, Secretary Yang specially said yesterday that I want to listen to your opinion, how can you arrange this?" ”
Chen Fan hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't, I also heard Secretary Yang say that you were a master who worked in the shipyard back then, and this kind of thing must be listened to you." ”
Master Wang immediately snorted, "That was the old Huang Li many years ago." ”
After finishing speaking, he frowned, stared at the small boats, smoked a few puffs, and then looked at Chen Fan, "Teacher Chen, do you think this will work, the two boats are close together, straight row 3 rows, and the diesel engine and paddle machine are installed in the middle of the two boats at the rear."
In this way, it is equivalent to putting 6 small boats into a 10-meter-long, less than two-meter-wide boat, and then nailing it to death with ship nails and wooden strips. ”
Chen Fan immediately nodded and said, "You are the same as I thought. ”
It was as if he was not the one who proposed 3 boats and 2 rows side by side.
After a pause, he said with a little hesitation, "You are an old expert, I don't know if this will work." ”
He gestured and said, "It's just adding a small triangular sail to the boat, although it will affect some of the load, but it can add a little speed to the boat, don't you think?" ”
A smile appeared in Master Wang's eyes, but he slapped his hands with surprise on his face, "It's worthy of Mr. Chen, the finishing touch!" ”
