The inspection team had heard that there were tricycles available in Dafang Village, so a fleet of stylish tricycles sped over on the flat concrete road.
For a moment, the dust raised by the tricycle was filled with a sense of high spirits.
When they arrived at the entrance of Dafang Village, the tricycle team stopped on the flat ground at the entrance of the village. When they saw the convenience store at the entrance of the village, everyone was surprised.
Sun Yingshi walked into the store out of curiosity and saw the things sold there. He felt deeply that the village was financially strong.
Look at the complete range of items inside. Some of them cannot be bought in the north without connections.
He couldn't help but dig into his pockets. "Comrade, how much are you selling this milk powder? And these, red dates, and so on."
As he spoke, he pointed to the dried fruit section.
Wan Qingliu saw that this group of people seemed quite impressive and decided to show off the hospitality and generosity of Dafang Village. So, he said in an attitude as generous as the name of Dafang Village:
"Hey, comrade, you look so impressive and have great potential. I'll give you a discount. The milk powder is originally ten yuan per pound, so I'll give you 20% off. This can is 20 yuan, so I'll give it to you for 16 yuan, okay? And the red dates are fifty cents per pound..."
Sun Yingshi nodded repeatedly and said, "The things in your store are very affordable. Where do you get the goods from?"
This price is even cheaper than the supply and marketing cooperative, and you don’t even need a ticket.
Wan Qingliu had no guilt at all: "My procurement channels are all legal and compliant, but I can't disclose them."
Sun Yingshi nodded: "I understand, I understand." He took out the money and said, "Please count it, there is nothing missing."
Wan Qingliu took the money and said, "No need to count it. I believe you are not the kind of person who is greedy for small gains."
As they were talking, the other members of the inspection team also took a tour of the store and were amazed.
"This is great! It makes it easier for villagers to buy things, and shop owners can make money right at their doorstep."
"That's right. Tomorrow I'll take some things to sell in the surrounding villages."
"How come there are red dates, walnuts, and so many dried fruits?"
Wan Qingliu quickly said earnestly, "You can try it."
Someone picked up the dried mango and took a bite. It was so sweet, soft, chewy and thick, and had the aroma of mango. He couldn't help but nod his head repeatedly.
"This is delicious. How much is one pound?"
Wan Qingliu quoted the price without blinking, "Three yuan a pound. Mangoes are tropical fruits. They shrink when dried, and they need to be pickled in sugar, so the price won't be cheap."
Everyone understood as soon as they heard it. This is not the place where mangoes are produced. The cost is here, and they can't sell them at a loss.
Besides, if you can come out to investigate, three dollars is not a hindrance. It's not like you eat it every day. It's a rare trip, so what's wrong with buying some to try?
In short, the group of people first spent some money at the village entrance before entering the village with satisfaction.
When we arrived at the center of the village, we found the village cafeteria. Curiosity got the better of us and we went in to take a look.
Who hasn’t seen the cafeteria?
But the village canteen has never appeared since the educated youth returned to the city.
It’s past breakfast time now, and everyone is washing vegetables to prepare for lunch.
The inspection team couldn't help but envy the vegetables waiting to be washed.
This food is really good.
Better than the factory cafeteria.
The team leader finally arrived and kept saying sorry.
"I'm so sorry, please forgive my inattention. I was supposed to pick you up from the county, but I didn't know you were coming here on a tricycle."
Sun Yingshi said politely: "Hey, it's not your problem, it's our fault. When we came here, we planned to experience the tricycle, but we didn't know you came to pick us up. We should be embarrassed."
The captain quickly poured tea for everyone. As he poured, he smiled and said, "I believe everyone has tasted tea before, but this time I didn't make tea for you. Instead, I prepared something new. I wonder if you will dislike it."
Everyone was very curious, so they picked up the teacup and took a sip. The sweetness of honey was mixed with the acidity of fruit. To be honest, it tasted quite good.
"Don't mind, don't mind. If you hadn't given me this drink, I wouldn't be able to drink it anywhere else."
"This thing tastes quite strange, but it's not bad."
"Having this drink in your village makes my trip worthwhile."
"To be honest, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I don't really like tea leaves. I prefer something sweet, and this is perfect for me!"
The captain was relieved when he heard this, and then he smiled and said, "I wonder if you smelled the fragrance of flowers when you came here."
The members of the delegation said, "I smell it! It's very rich, with a slightly bitter flavor. It smells quite good!"
The captain smiled and said, "This is the flower of the lemon tree, and this water is made from the lemons of the lemon tree and honey."
There was a knowledgeable person in the inspection team who had actually heard of lemons, but he had only seen lemons in the southwest, where they liked to mix lemons with chili peppers to create a sour and spicy flavor.
I didn’t expect to see lemons in such a small village in Gan Province.
He was immediately impressed: "Lemon is so sour, but you can actually figure out this way to eat it. It seems that local climate and soil really determine local diet, hahahaha!"
At noon, Hua Ziqiang went to the kitchen to start cooking. With a sizzling sound, steam rose from the wok, and the rich aroma of oil and vegetables rolled out.
As soon as they smelled the aroma of cooking oil over a raging fire, everyone sniffed in satisfaction. Just by smelling it, they knew that the lunch would be good!
The team leader brought out rice wine and said, "This is our local specialty rice wine, made from rice grown in the village. Let's try it."
The products grown in Dafang Village, including rice, are of very good quality, and the wine brewed with the rice produced in Dafang Village naturally has a unique aroma.
After everyone drank it, they praised it highly.
A dish of preserved eggs with sesame oil was served first, followed by cold cuts of braised beef, white meat with dipping sauce, and a dish of steamed pickled fish.
This dish is really good. Everyone couldn't help but pick up their chopsticks when they smelled the aroma.
Soon, steamed pork with rice flour and radish and pork ribs soup were served on the table.
A dish of braised pork and a dish of vegetable, meatball and vermicelli soup satisfy everyone's taste buds and showcase the local characteristics.
Sweet and sour spare ribs, stir-fried bacon with quinoa, and tofu and fish head soup are all must-try dishes.
Finally, fresh wild vegetables and seasonal vegetables were served, including stir-fried cabbage hearts with garlic, shepherd's purse and meat dumplings, dried tofu mixed with sesame oil and celery, and stir-fried meat with water celery.
Fresh and delicious, with good color, aroma and taste.
Paired with steaming hot rice, everyone ate without even looking up.
This meal was really good, the dishes were delicious and the cooking was excellent. One of the characteristics of Gan cuisine is that it goes well with rice.
People in the north have big appetites, so even if they have dumplings, they will still eat two or three bowls of rice.
It smells so good.
After finishing the food on the table, everyone slumped in their chairs, touching their stomachs.
The last dish was a sweet Tremella soup, so I naturally drank another bowl.
Decades ago, people had to starve. We have never been so well fed as we are now.
