Chapter 69: Selling Pigs
It's dusty all the way, it's almost four o'clock when I come to the food station, good guys, there is a long queue at the door of the food station, dozens of hundreds of horse-drawn carts, mule carts, donkey carts, and ox carts are really mighty.
"It's late. ”
"It can't be helped. ”
Although the Hanzhuang production team is not the farthest away from the commune, there is no phone, and the other production teams have telephones, and they know everything when they shout from the loudspeaker, unlike Hanzhuang, who also wants Li Dong to come back by bicycle to inform.
It's at least an hour to go back and forth, and it's normal to be late.
"Eighty percent of the time I'm going to sleep here at night. ”
"Sleeping here?"
"This is also normal, and the public grain often sleeps in the commune for one night. ”
Han Weijun and the others didn't care too much, everyone took a look at the pigs sent by other production teams, they were all about the same size, more than 100 pounds, and it would be good to grow like this in February earlier than in previous years.
"Brother Weijun, I'll go ahead and take a look. ”
It's really the first time that Li Dong has such a large pig selling team, good guy, the team is a mile away.
The food station was busy in full swing, Li Dong took a look, several masters pinched and touched, and a few farmers on the side looked at the master nervously.
"Level six. ”
"Level six?"
The peasants on the side were full of disappointment. "Master, take a good look, why is my pig more than level six. ”
Li Dong muttered, what do you mean by how many levels are there, and when he heard it, he pointed to the sign. "There is one on it, if you can't read it, see for yourself. ”
"Literacy. ”
"There really is. ”
Li Dong took a look at the good guys, the pig was set at the twelfth level according to the meat production rate, and one hundred catties of pigs produced seventy-seven catties of meat, which belonged to the first level, and the price of fifty-three yuan and two cents was the highest.
For every 100 catties of live pigs, the meat is less than two catties, the grade is reduced by one level, and the price is reduced by one piece and four cents, which is really not a small difference.
The second-level 100-kilogram pig produces 75 kilograms of meat, and the price is 51 pounds and 8 cents, so calculated, the lowest 12-level pork can only produce 55 kilograms, and the price is 100 kilograms and 37 yuan and 8 cents.
As for the sixth-level 100 catties just now, he can only produce 67 catties of meat, and the price is only 46 yuan and 2 cents.
No wonder the master wants to jump a level, this is a difference of one or two dollars, and the money for oil and salt in a month is enough.
It's a pity that these acceptance masters, all of them are experienced old butchers, and they know how much meat they can produce after a few glances and touches, and it is almost impossible to adjust your level casually.
"Alas. ”
"This year's pigs are not good. ”
"Yes, there are twenty or thirty pigs, and the highest is only level four. ”
"In previous years, there were a few second-level levels. ”
Li Dongxin said, that is a hundred catties of internal organs, once the internal organs are removed, there will definitely be less meat. "Well, I'd better go out for a walk, it smells so strong. ”
"I've finally found you. ”
"What's the matter, Brother Weijun?"
Li Dong was strolling around, so he didn't go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy a pack of cigarettes, and was ready to find a place to smoke a cigarette.
"I'm looking for you. ”
"Uncle Guofu has finished the meeting, okay, I'll go over. ”
When he came to the door of the commune, sure enough, Han Fu and others came out, Li Dong hurriedly pulled and pinched the codex, and his two long legs supported the bicycle. "Uncle, after the meeting, I'll send you back. ”
"Let's go to the food station first. ”
"Okay. ”
Li Dong nodded at Gao Weimin, this will really run out of time.
"How's the pig selling? ”
"Still in line, Brother Wei Jun estimated, at least until midnight. ”
Li Dong looked at the time, Shanghai brand watches, South Korea's rich eyes are about to fall, this kid not only bought a bicycle, but also wore this watch, don't sell the house and waste it.
Go back and ask, this kid is too nonsense.
"Uncle Guofu, I'll take you to the food station first, and then go to pick up Xiaojuan. ”
"Okay, you can talk to your aunt later, I'll keep an eye on it at night, and I'll send some bedding over later. ”
No problem, it's simple, send Han Weiguo over, Li Dong turned the car and rode towards the elementary school.
"Hey, why are you here?"
Li Dong saw Huang Shengnan's girl from afar, squatting at the school gate, what are you doing. "You're here, just in time, I have something to look for you. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Something happened. ”
"Something's wrong?"
Li Dong looked puzzled. "Be clear?"
"The county caught a few speculators and locked them up. Huang Shengnan whispered. "I've also heard that I won't be allowed to sell vegetables. ”
"Didn't the Red Soldiers stop?"
Li Dong was a little puzzled, and at the same time his heart tightened, this is really a big deal. "Didn't you move a while ago?"
"I don't know. “
How does Huang Shengnan know? "I'm here to tell you, don't go out in the limelight lately, it's too dangerous. ”
"Thank you. ”
This is really a big deal, Li Dongxin said, what's going on, but the vegetables are not allowed to be sold, and this problem seems to be quite serious. It's a bit troublesome to shoot the alarm clock he brought this time, Li Dongxin said that it's really dangerous these days.
"Then I'm leaving. ”
"Don't, Xiaojuan misses you a lot, let's go back first, and I'll ride you back when I get back." ”
"This car?"
"Bought it, not bad. ”
Huang Shengnan looked surprised, he bought it, it was really a bit of a way.
Xiaojuan got out of school, she was very happy to see Li Dong and Huang Shengnan, and when she went back, Huang Shengnan sat in the back seat and sat Xiaojuan on her shoulder, not to mention that after the training of Korean rich, the road was quite smooth, which made Li Dong a little proud.
His bicycle driving skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and when he returned home, Li Dong said with a smile.
"Xiaojuan steamed buns, steam more, your aunt will stay for dinner at night." ”
"No, no, you can send me back. ”
"Stew mutton pot at night, put down some meatballs, vermicelli, what else do you want to eat?"
"Lamb?"
Huang Shengnan swallowed his saliva, he really hasn't eaten meat recently, so what's okay, it won't take much time to eat a meal.
The two iron pots are served together, Huang Shengnan and Xiaojuan are two villains pulling the windmill, Li Dong operates, the hot pot material is added with chili oil, and the hot oil is fried like this, the fragrance is simply straight into your nose, fragrant.
The whole Zhuangzi Dongtou smelled the smell, good guy, Li Dong's baby has eaten meat again, and many little babies have saliva flowing down, and they sucked it directly, and the corn, sweet potatoes, and coarse grain dumplings in their hands were immediately not fragrant.
"This guy smells so good. ”
"It's not bad, I heard that Shanghai brought seasonings, good guys, we also asked Li Dong to get some and roast meat during the New Year. ”
"Yes, yes, roast meat, it's definitely delicious. ”
It's no wonder it's not delicious, Li Dong poured bone broth, the copper hot pot finally came in handy, Huang Shengnan gave Li Dong a thumbs up, amazing, when it comes to eating, he is willing to bow down.
The hot pot soup was poured into the copper pot, Li Dong fanned the wind with a pu fan, and the charcoal cubes in it were burned more vigorously, and the bone broth and hot pot soup gurgled and bubbled. "Alright, meat. "Good guy, at least two catties of mutton in the pot, and a big bowl of meatballs.
As for the vegetables, the fans are all in the basin, and after a while, the mandarin duck hot pot, that guy is fragrant, Huang Shengnan's mouth is straight, Xiaojuan's little nose is twitching, and a few families closer to Li Dong's house will be scolding the mother.
Dog's day, this is so fragrant, all the gluttonous insects are hooked out, and the whole food at home has eaten a few more bites.
The little baby even drooled into a waterfall, looked at her parents one by one, and asked when she would eat meat. "Eat it tomorrow, the wild boar at home is stewed tomorrow. ”
"It's so fragrant on a dog day. ”
"Gollum. ”
The room was warm, a copper meat, and Li Dong saw that it was cooked. "Eat it hot, you're welcome. ”
"Spicy, okay?"
"No problem. ”
"Xiaojuan, you eat the bone broth. ”
Li Dong and Huang Shengnan both know each other, opponents, scooping mutton, meatballs, sucking mouths, hot and hot, blowing, eating is really comfortable and fragrant.
"Let's have a steamed bun. ”
Spicy, hot, fragrant, and white flour steamed buns are simply complete.
The fragrance was overflowing, Huang Shengnan couldn't help but kill four big steamed buns by himself, and he also ate a lot of mutton and meatballs.
Xiaojuan was dumbfounded, Li Dong had long been used to it, Huang Shengnan's amount of food was no worse than his own.
"One more. ”
I just put more mutton, and I put a lot of meatball vermicelli, and the bone broth has become mutton soup.
"Drink a bowl of soup. ”
The hot mutton bone vermicelli soup was so comfortable that Li Dong couldn't help but dry two bowls himself.
After killing two bowls of mutton soup in a row, Huang Shengnan burped, and Xiaojuan was speechless at this moment.
"Auntie can really eat. Xiaojuan secretly said in her heart, this is all catching up with Dada, if anyone has these two, eighty percent will go bankrupt.
"One more, I'll give you some more fans. ”
"No, no, I'm full, burp. Huang Shengnan was a little embarrassed, he couldn't hold back just now, it was too fragrant.
Huang Shengnan saw that it was almost dark outside, got up and wanted to go back, Li Dong was going to send the cart, Huang Shengnan waved his hand, no need, he just walked around to eliminate food, so let's do it.
"I'll send you out of Zhuangzi. ”
"How is Xiaojuan doing?"
"Fortunately, the little girl had some nightmares a few days ago. ”
"It's been a little better lately. ”
Li Dong is so accustomed to Xiaojuan, and he also takes money out from time to time, mainly Xiaojuan said some things in her nightmare, this girl has been eating hundreds of meals since she was thrown down by her mother and her father threw herself into the river, and she must have suffered a lot of grievances during this period.
Now that there is Xindada, it is very good for her, she should be happy, but after listening to some messages, dragging oil bottles, and Li Dong sending Xiaojuan to school, it can cause a lot of movement, you must know that Xiaojuan is the first girl to go to school in Hanzhuang.
The girl doesn't earn work, and she is sent to school, just eating rations and not working, inevitably some people say that Xiaojuan is afraid, afraid that Dada will not want her, and she has a nightmare for a few days, but fortunately, Li Dong found out that if she gave Xiaojuan money, the little girl could sleep more peacefully.
Of course, the little girl, the dream words she said from time to time also made Li Dong cry and laugh, building a house to help Dada marry a daughter-in-law or something.
"I just saw that Xiaojuan ate very little. ”
"I haven't eaten much all the time. Li Dongxin said, what's wrong.
"In the past, Xiaojuan was quite able to eat. ”
Huang Shengnan said casually that he didn't think much about it, but Li Dong thought more, Xiaojuan's days of eating hundreds of meals must have been difficult, maybe she didn't dare to eat more, after a long time, similar to dieting in later generations, her stomach was hungry.
"Nourish it first, and slowly your appetite should be opened. ”
Sending Huang Shengnan, Li Dong returned home and secretly thought in his heart, when he returned home, Xiaojuan was not there, Li Dongxin said where this girl went, and after a while, he saw Xiaojuan coming back with a basket and playing pigweed.
"There are quite a few more at home. ”
"Fight more, you won't be able to fight when it's cold. ”
The little piglet followed behind Xiaojuan's buttocks, this little piglet is not wise, help Xiaojuan chop and boil the pigweed, don't say that Li Dong doesn't know much about this. "Xiaojuan, come to me, have you done your homework?"
"It's done. ”
Xiaojuan's mother taught her, and now she basically learns in the first grade, and she usually doesn't do much homework at school, and the little girl usually works non-stop when she comes home. "Then you can play for a while, wash your feet and sleep. "It was nice to have a thermos at home, hot water.
However, in order to save hot water, he usually washes his face first and then his feet, Li Dong didn't have this habit, but now he has developed it, but for Xiaojuan to wash his feet with his own foot washing water, this Li Dong resolutely disagrees, this product is a bit of athlete's foot.
As for a basin that washes feet and face, now it has been improved, and a new washbasin has been bought, Li Dong can't bear it, it's too much, the face towel and the foot towel are together, no, it should be a towel in the family and it is still black.
Li Dong can't bear this, and now he hangs a row of towels, takes a bath, washes his face, and washes his feet, this matter has to be known to Han Fu, and it is estimated that it is another criticism, who has such luxury in these years, and he also takes a bath and washes his face.
It's good to be able to wash your face and feet separately, but there is really no such luxury in the countryside, and Li Dong is the only one.
"Knock Knock"
Li Dong had just cooked the pig food, and there was a knock on the door, and he slapped his forehead and forgot about it.
