Chapter 803 Inventory of Supplies
For example, in addition to staple foods such as instant frozen steamed buns, there must be various nutritious side dishes. Jingnai has pickled various pickles and mustard greens during this period, and even fermented bean curd Jingnai has made it. Lao Jing has a large family and they eat a lot, so Jingnai is also generous. He puts them directly in the 60L sealed storage box that he bought at the beginning. He has prepared piles of them and is waiting to take them on the road to eat.
If you want to eat things like bean sprouts and tofu, you can just soak them on the way.
Since there is no sunshine every day, I have to supplement more vitamins. I have used up all the medicines I bought before. Now my only source of energy is fresh fruits, various dried fruits, and frozen fruits.
Before, Jingshu could still find a reason to use Xishan as an excuse to bring back some fresh fruits available in Wucheng. Together with the fruits carefully stored in the sunroom on the second floor of the villa, the family was not short of anything.
As for fresh fruits that are not available in Wucheng, Jingshu would never bring them home. Jingshu's mother and father are both in high positions and are well-informed. She would have to cover up her lies and bring up a lot of things, so she usually makes them into dried fruits, frozen products, or finished products before bringing them back.
For example, the wealthy Su Mali's house still has a lot of pre-apocalyptic cheesecakes, durian cakes and the like hidden in its refrigerator. Some are collected from all over the place, and some are freshly made at high prices. These things will not go bad even if frozen for several years, and at most the taste will be affected. But at Su Mali's birthday party last time, Jingshu ate a piece of mango and durian double cake and thought it tasted pretty good.
Of course, only a few close friends were invited to the birthday party. Su Mali could no longer hold her own against the times when she would treat the entire class to a full set of Western meals. Even Su Mali's little notebook recorded the existing inventory, and she had to count it several times a day.
Jingshu took a few glances and thought, wow, there are still more good things than hers. Unknowingly, Jingshu, a collector, has collected more delicious food than the second richest man in Wucheng. Jingshu still feels a sense of accomplishment.
You still need to eat some fruit every morning. Fruit is very important, but you can't take all the fruit plants in the sunroom with you, and you can't take the apple trees and apricot trees in the yard with you... You can't just move and uproot the apple tree and take it away, right?
This was a bit too much. After thinking about it, Jingshu planned to use the Hulk to transport the strawberries that were easy to grow, the mare's milk grape racks that had grown vines, and the potted dragon fruit. At least she could eat some fresh fruits on the way. Apples, for example, were durable. The apples that appeared in supermarkets every day before the end of the world had been kept in cold storage for about a year. These could be taken on the road and eaten.
Fruits like peaches, apricots, kiwis and oranges can be frozen and stored for half a year without any problem.
If you want pears, you can make them into frozen pears. This is Jingshu's favorite dessert. Put the frozen pear in a bowl and slowly cut it open. Take a sip and it will be icy and sweet. Paired with the cake, it will be a delicious afternoon tea. Frozen pears with hot pot are even more amazing.
If there are other fruits in Xishan, you can take them out to improve your life. If not, forget it. If you are really hungry, just eat some dried fruits. Jingshu understands this feeling best. Sometimes there are a lot of things, but you just want to eat the ones that are not available. Isn’t that annoying?
If you can't eat, you will feel unhappy and your head will be blocked. Jingshu understands that feeling. She will go through everything carefully so that when the time comes and she wants to eat something but it is not available, she will be sad.
..
Forget about the other fruits in the sunroom—it's not that they're hard to carry, but they're already bare and have already borne fruit, so there's no point carrying them along. You can't eat them. The ones that are bearing fruit right now definitely need to be carried.
Moreover, due to various factors such as temperature and humidity, these fruits usually need to be exposed to fluorescent lights for 8 hours. This is very troublesome and they will easily die if not taken care of properly. So they are left as seeds and branches, put together, and transplanted when they are in the right place. Jingshu doesn't feel bad about it. She can plant whatever she wants in the space. It is not troublesome at all.
If it weren't for the difficulty in getting across, Jingshu wouldn't even want to bring these. Jingnai, on the other hand, looked at the large potted lychee tree with a distressed look and said, "It's really useless to bring such a large pot. Let's just prune the branches and take good care of them. We can plant some new ones when we get to the place."
There are not only lychee dwarf trees, but also watermelon vines, apple branches and so on.
In the end times, to understand a family’s financial situation, you just need to look at what food and crops they grow.
This time we have to move, crops
These are all lives. Grandma Jing and Grandpa Jing are reluctant to give up anything. Part of the vegetable rack built in the yard has been moved to the second floor of the RV, and part of it has been placed in the incubator that Grandpa Jing has just made. When the time comes, the Hulk will take it away, and Grandpa Jing will take care of it carefully.
Lao Jing's villa also has a place dedicated to cultivating various mushrooms. These mushrooms are particularly delicious when made into soup, and the leftover mushrooms are made into various dried mushrooms. When the time comes, they can be soaked and become a large lump, which does not take up much space.
"These mushrooms are easier to care for than vegetables, and they have fewer requirements. They're not as delicate. We should take everything we can. No one knows what the situation is like over there... We don't lack food in Wucheng, but other places may not be. We've worked so hard to grow so many mushrooms over the years, and it's really not easy to save the extra mushrooms for food."
Who would complain about having extra food these days? Of course, the more the better.
After eating a variety of nutritious breakfasts in the morning, Jingshu arranged a lot of her favorite foods for lunch, including fried chicken, roast lamb, fried steak, braised goose, braised lion head, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, etc. Jingshu secretly put the foods that tasted best when freshly made into the space. For example, those that could be made into frozen products, such as roast goose, which could be taken out and shared together, were made into frozen products and then packaged in a vacuum machine.
When the time comes, just tear open the bag and heat it up. It’s so convenient.
But Jing's dad seems to like eating baked buns very much. When you bite into the golden and thin-skinned buns, you can taste the greasy and chewy lamb mixed with the fragrance of onions and the crispy skin... He can eat more than a dozen in one go without any problem. When Jingshu was roasting the lamb, she made several boxes of these crispy-skinned buns next to the high-temperature fireplace and froze them. She can steam them and eat them later. They will definitely not taste as good as the fresh ones, so she just has to make do with them.
There's also Jingye's love for baked naan, Jingma's love for honey-glazed lotus root, Jingna's love for spicy crayfish, Third Aunt's love for steamed pork ribs, and Wu Youai, who just came home and heard about the migration, loves fragrant meat, and so on...
So, it's not even the New Year yet, but there's a scent that seems to be fragrant coming from the villa recently... There's also a faint pungent smell mixed in. That's because Jingshu and Jingnai were busy cooking all kinds of food, and after using the range hood, the smell still leaked out, so Jingshu came up with a compromise.
