Chapter 106: Teach primitive people to cook porridge
Picking up the flashlight on the shelf, Jiang Wanwan introduced it lightly.
"This thing is called a flashlight, and it is used for lighting!"
After speaking, he lightly pressed the switch, and a cylindrical beam of light shot out from the flashlight.
However, the light bulbs were on in the supermarket at this moment, and the beam of light was not very obvious.
So, Jiang Wanwan took the flashlight, walked forward two steps, and came to the door of the supermarket.
Then he shone the flashlight into the dim night.
In the night, a beam of light stretched forward, illuminating the surroundings, and even a blade of grass on the ground was clearly visible.
Jiang Wanwan shook it casually twice, and then handed the flashlight directly to the hand that followed him.
"Flashlights are used for night lighting, and generally can last for a whole night."
Torches are used for lighting at night in the tribe!
The burning velvet wrapped around the torch is not easy to find, so Li and his men don't use it easily.
Moreover, the torch has limited lighting space, and the smoke is very heavy when burning, which is not convenient to use.
But Li never thought that one day he would be able to see a blade of grass clearly in the dark?
The most important thing is that this thing called a flashlight not only does not have smoke that irritates the eyes.
It can also illuminate so clearly, so far, and the light is so stable!
With this thing, many things in the tribe can be moved to after dark, such as pickling bacon.
Relatively speaking, they can spend more time on hunting during the day.
Therefore, this thing called a flashlight must be exchanged!
"How many star coins is this flashlight?" Li asked impatiently while shaking the flashlight.
"A flashlight costs 10 star coins. If you don't use it in the middle of a day, you can press the switch and save the remaining light for next time." Jiang Wanwan explained.
10 star coins a night.
How much can they do in one night?
Moreover, they can save the light for next time. If you are frugal
, you can use it for several nights!
Calculated in this way, it can be said to be a very good deal.
Seeing Li's satisfied look on his face after thinking about it.
Jiang Wanwan knew that the flashlight business was stable!
So she went back to the shelf and talked about the last item.
"The last item is called rice, which is a staple food that can be eaten daily like meat."
Is this square thing food? Or a staple food?
Li certainly knows what a staple food is.
In their tribe, the main food they eat on a daily basis is meat.
This thing called rice can actually be used as a staple food, is it true?
Seeing the confusion on everyone's face, Jiang Wanwan picked up a bag of rice and introduced it in detail.
"This bag of rice can replace ten packs of instant noodles after being cooked, but it only costs 50 star coins."
After Li calculated how many star coins were needed for ten packs of instant noodles, he immediately became interested in rice.
An adult in the tribe needs to eat at least five packs of instant noodles per meal.
In other words, this bag of rice is enough for two people to eat, but it only costs 50 star coins?
"Moreover, there are many ways to cook rice. If it is cooked into porridge, it can also be eaten by people without teeth, whether they are old people or children without teeth!"
After hearing Jiang Wanwan's supplement, Li's eyes lit up.
Toothless old people and children can eat it? That's great.
People without teeth in the tribe usually die soon because they cannot tear meat.
As for children, if their mothers have no milk, they can only borrow from others.
Or, the adults chew the meat and feed it to the children, but the children will die easily.
If rice can really be fed to people without teeth, it will not take long for the population of their tribe to increase greatly.
"How do you cook this rice into porridge?" Li asked directly.
"Just add water and cook it! Put a handful of rice in a bottle of mineral water. If you want it thinner, add more water! You can also put less water and cook it into rice, which is more filling."
Jiang Wanwan tried to be concise and clear. She was afraid that the other party didn't understand, so she said directly.
"If you don't know how to cook it, I can cook it for you!"
Jiang Wanwan took the rice and walked directly to the cashier.
And asked Qi Tiandong quietly: "Do you want to eat rice or porridge tonight?"
"Eat rice!" Qi Tiandong also answered quietly.
After getting the answer, Jiang Wanwan began to act.
Pour a bottle of mineral water into the clean pot, and pour in one-seventh of the rice in a bag of two kilograms.
In this way, you can probably cook a big bowl of rice.
Although Qi Tiandong will definitely not be full, it can also suppress his growth!
Let it cook in the pot, and Jiang Wanwan explained it seriously to the force that followed.
"Just like this, but I use the ratio of rice to rice. If you want to cook it into porridge, you need to put less rice."
"You need to boil it over high heat at first, and then turn it to low heat after it starts to bubble. Remember to stir it in the middle, and then cook it over low heat for a while and it will be cooked."
The rice grains are as white as snow, which is very lovely to look at.
And the process of cooking porridge is very simple. Li nodded directly after reading it, indicating that he knew it.
Seeing this, Jiang Wanwan asked Qi Tiandong to watch the fire in the pot, and she concentrated on dealing with the big orders.
After letting Li think for a few minutes, Jiang Wanwan asked.
"Have you thought about what to change?"
Li nodded and said a series of names.
"First, give me 50 packets of salt, 500 boxes of matches, 10 flashlights, 10 packets of rice, 4 iron pots, 50 packets of instant noodles, and 50 machetes."
Li only wanted 10 packs of rice, probably because he hadn't tasted it yet and wanted to try it first.
The amount of instant noodles was five times less than yesterday, probably because of the rice?
"I only have 399 boxes of matches here for now. If you want more, come back tomorrow! It's star coins in total, and you have 1513 star coins left." Jiang Wanwan reminded.
After hearing the number of remaining star coins, Li continued to sign up.
"Then give me 2 more longbows, 20 arrows, and 2 packs of white sugar, and the remaining star coins can be exchanged for buns."
"Okay, after exchanging for 56 buns, there is still 1 star coin left."
Jiang Wanwan explained the number of buns as usual, and then took out the goods he needed one by one. Steamed
buns, instant noodles, watermelon knives, white sugar, edible salt...
Before Li had taken out all the things he wanted, he had already taken up half of the cashier counter.
As for the other half, a gas stove was placed for cooking!
After the primitive people took all these things in their hands, Jiang Wanwan took out the remaining goods.
After counting all the goods he had exchanged, Li took a group of people and left.
