Yun Huaying herself thought the taste was okay, similar to what she had eaten in her previous life. She took out the bean curd sheets and tofu skin that she had prepared earlier and said, "This is a cold bean curd salad. I asked Aunt Zhao for some black fungus and peanuts, and mixed it with minced garlic, green onions, and cilantro. You can try it."
The captain tasted it first, and after just one bite, he snatched the bowl away and said, "Give me this dish to go with my wine at noon."
"Captain, you wish."
Before he could turn around, he was blocked by a large group of women comrades, and countless pairs of chopsticks were poked into the basin.
Seeing that the captain had attracted the attention of the female soldiers, Yun Huaying secretly took out two lunch boxes from the basket, stuffed one into each of Wang Huiyu and Lin Shan, winked at them, and signaled them to quickly take their things and run away.
Wang Huiyu and Lin Shan smiled, and the other educated youth all came forward tacitly to cover them, and united to protect their rations.
The dried tofu braised before was only enough for everyone to taste, and now everyone is clamoring for more. The experiment happened to be successful, so the two pots of braising liquid continued to be used, and more spices were added according to the proportion. Nearly 20 kilograms of dried tofu were put into the pot and slowly braised.
The three new varieties of dried tofu were recognized by the members, and Yun Huaying also received a large order, so they started working in full swing that afternoon.
That night, after everyone fell asleep, Yun Huaying secretly left the team and rode her beloved little motorcycle to the county town.
Qian Youming still delivered the goods from the warehouse near the black market. They were all grains and fruits, filling up five large warehouses and their cargo ships heading to Xinjin City. They had a pleasant cooperation and made a lot of money.
After finishing the transaction with him, she hurried to the birch forest and took all the things out of the space in advance.
A little wolf cub also came out with her. It hadn't been to the mountains and forests outside for a long time. Today, it clung to her legs and insisted on coming out to play with her, so she brought it out.
“Ouch!”
When He Jun and his companions drove over, the little wolf cub lying on the ground immediately stood up and stood on guard with his strong and sturdy body.
"Be good, my friend is here, don't scream." Yun Huaying hugged its neck and teased it lovingly.
The truck in front stopped. He Jun, who was sitting in the passenger seat, opened the door and jumped out. He said solemnly, "Sister Ying, I just thought I heard a strange cry. Did you hear it?"
"Look, this guy is barking." Yun Huaying patted the little wolf cub.
"Wow, what a big dog. Is this yours?"
As He Jun finished speaking, He Yao, who had just come down from the cab, happened to meet the wolf's gaze. His eyes bulged, and he immediately grabbed his brother who was rushing over: "Xiaojun, don't go over there, it's a wolf!"
"ah!"
He Jun suddenly stopped in his tracks, his mouth hanging open in shock. "Wolf?"
"Oh my god, it's really a wolf."
The others who got off the bus also recognized Yun Huaying. Brother Lu, who had dealt with Yun Huaying more often, fixed his eyes on the wolf cub, his eyes brighter than light bulbs: "Sister Ying, you actually raised a wolf!"
Yun Huaying smiled lightly, with a hint of amusement in her smile: "Well, this is a little pet I picked up in the mountains, and I raised it to this size."
"Ouch..."
After hearing what the magic vine said, the little wolf cub got down on all fours and rubbed his head against her to act coquettishly, as if he was showing off to them.
He Jun: "...Oh my God, Sister Ying, you are my idol."
Other female comrades at most kept dogs and cats, but she kept a wolf, and such a big and ferocious one at that. He was simply impressed by her.
Yun Huaying smiled. Seeing his eyes sparkling, and it was obvious that he wanted to get closer to the wolf cub, she said with a smile, "Do you want to touch it?"
"Can I touch it?"
It was the first time he saw a wolf. This wolf seemed very docile in front of her, not at all as ferocious as described in the books. He really wanted to go up and touch it.
"Come." Yun Huaying waved at him and said to the little wolf cub, "This is my friend. Let him pet you. I'll buy you some meat from him later."
"Woo." The little wolf cub responded.
Seeing that the wolf was very well behaved and had a gentle look in its eyes, He Jun bravely walked over to her and tentatively touched its fur. His hands were still shaking a little, but he kept saying, "Sister Ying, this wolf is so strong and its fur is so smooth. How did you keep it so fat and strong?"
"This guy is a glutton. He has chicken, duck, rabbit meat and fruit all the time. He often asks me to make him milk powder and malted milk. He also loves to eat biscuits and chocolate. Anyway, my living standard is far inferior to his."
He Jun: "...My life is far worse than this."
He Yao also came over, holding a flashlight, and looked closely at the sturdy and strong wolf. He smiled and asked, "Sister Ying, your..."
Before he could finish his words, He Jun interrupted him: "Brother, Sister Ying is only 18 years old."
"ah?"
Everyone, including He Yao, was a little surprised.
They had guessed from her attire that she was nearly thirty years old. They were all a little embarrassed. He Yao quickly changed the subject: "Comrade Ying, I'm sorry."
"It's okay, it's just a name. I didn't want to be recognized, so I pretended to be mature."
Yun Huaying didn't care about this. Thinking about what he was going to ask, she said, "Brother He, what were you about to say?"
"I just saw you talking to this wolf, and it seemed to understand. Have you trained it?" He Yao looked at things differently from his brother. He didn't just look at the surface, and he had just quickly captured the key details.
Yun Huaying nodded in agreement, "Yes, it has had some simple training. It's very smart and can understand some simple commands."
"You are lucky to have met such a docile and smart wolf." There was some deep meaning in He Yao's eyes, but he was smart enough not to delve into it.
He Jun knew that his elder brother had his occupational disease again. He had already touched the little wolf cub all over, and his hand was still rubbing it on the head. He immediately changed the subject: "Brother, I'll play with this wolf for a while. You go with them to collect the goods and weigh them."
"OK."
After He Yao finished speaking, he told the others to get back to business.
After they left, Yun Huaying asked, "Little ghost, are these pigs being slaughtered and sold in the county town, or sent to other places?"
"Half of the cattle will be kept in the county, and the other half will be sent to the city."
"Leave me half a pig's meat. There are many people raising pigs where I live, and no one knows how to kill a pig. Keep some meat for yourself."
Yun Huaying lied. Actually, she wanted to save the meat for herself. The pigs raised in the space were fed with pure grains and vegetables, and the pork tasted delicious. However, she didn't know how to kill pigs, so she could only ask him to help her save the meat.
"Okay, come to my house in three days." He Jun agreed.
"Leave me some extra pig's feet and offal, and two pig's heads, so I can smoke bacon for the winter."
He Jun nodded in response and asked her, "Sister Ying, do you still need piglets?"
"If you have any, send them over. We can eat thirty or fifty of them."
"Okay, I'll send it to you in the middle of next month."
He Jun likes doing business with her because the demand and supply are large and the transactions are quick. It is hard to find such a partner even with a lantern.
