Chapter 123 Bean Sprouting
Zhou Ziwen is the type of person who does what he says.
After lunch, he took a short break and went to the mushroom house under construction to check the progress.
Obviously, the production team attaches great importance to the mushroom house and has assigned a lot of people to it. The progress is changing every day.
According to Zhou Ziwen's estimation, at the current progress, it will be completed in three or four days.
There is strength in numbers, especially when the production team works together as a group, everything can be done quickly.
"It seems Yiyi and the others don't need to build a threshing ground."
Zhou Ziwen chatted with the villagers who were working on the construction and felt very satisfied.
The sooner it is built, the sooner he can start his own project.
Otherwise, he, the leader of the Mushroom Group, would be just an empty shell.
After leaving the mushroom house construction site, Zhou Ziwen rode his bicycle directly to the county town.
As a martial artist, having sharp ears, sharp eyes, quick eyes and quick hands are basic requirements.
Riding a bicycle on the road, Zhou Ziwen felt like he was speeding. Even if he encountered potholes on the road, he would just reach out and lift the bicycle lightly, and the bicycle would pass smoothly over it, as if there were invisible steps above the potholes, supporting the ground.
The heavy bicycle under his feet was as light as a feather in Zhou Ziwen's hands. People on the road were attracted by his handsome figure as they saw him speeding past.
In this day and age, there are not many bicycles in the countryside, and there are only a few in county towns.
He rode a bicycle and attracted attention.
After about twenty minutes, Zhou Ziwen arrived at the county town and went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Because he couldn't put much stuff on a bicycle, he only bought two kimchi jars, one on the back seat and the other on his back.
After tying the rope, he did not stay in the county town, but hurriedly rode his bicycle home.
It took a little longer to go back, after all, there were jars on the bicycle, which could easily break if bumped into.
It took him nearly forty minutes to get back home.
"Sister, I bought the kimchi jar. I'll go find Aunt Li later and exchange some peppers and other things for her."
As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Ziwen said to Chen Shiying.
"Let Yiyi and I go, you just rest at home." Chen Shiying said.
Zhou Ziwen has done so much for their family, and she takes it to heart.
It's natural that he would be touched, so how could he be so tired?
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
Zhou Ziwen nodded. Now that his life was back on track, he could finally take some time off.
If the conditions had not allowed it, he would have lay down long ago.
Because of Chen Shiying's words, he really lay down for the rest of the afternoon.
When I have nothing to do, I just stroll around the yard and don’t work.
At most, the firewood in the cellar is almost burned out, so add a few more pieces of firewood.
When I have time, I chat and talk with the Chen sisters.
When I had some free time, I also read the barefoot doctor manual for a while.
When reading this book, he also improved his skills, and gained new insights every time he read it.
Although skill proficiency does not improve quickly, the improvement of knowledge is always gratifying.
With his current level of medical skills, he certainly cannot treat patients. He has not yet entered the field and has only a superficial understanding of many things.
Strictly speaking, I can only be considered a medical enthusiast.
But he was not in a hurry. There was plenty of time anyway. He would learn this skill sooner or later.
When there are more AFK slots in the future, you can AFK for a long time. By then, your skill proficiency will improve quickly.
"Brother Ziwen, we've finished cutting the straw. What should we do next?"
When it was almost time to get off work, Chen Qiaoyi asked.
“After cutting, it needs to be ground and then sterilized, and then the bacteria can be cultured.”
"Tomorrow I'll teach you how to cultivate bacteria, so learn first!"
After being a hands-off boss for two days, Zhou Ziwen felt addicted.
He felt that in the future he could be like those old cadres, holding a cup of tea every day, patrolling his own territory, giving advice when encountering problems, and walking around when there were no problems.
"Okay, it's fun to watch you cultivate bacteria. It would be great if I could learn it too." Chen Qiaoyi nodded repeatedly.
She thinks that being able to grow mushrooms from scratch is a particularly amazing thing.
"You can definitely learn it. It's not difficult." Zhou Ziwen encouraged.
"Brother Zhou, we are back!"
Just as they were about to pack up and go home, Zhou Chaoyang and Shen Zhaodi also came back.
"How is it? Are you done grinding it all?" Zhou Ziwen asked about the progress.
"The front ones have all been polished, only the remaining ones are left." Zhou Chaoyang said.
"Okay, then we'll finish it tomorrow and then I'll teach you how to make the culture medium." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
"OK."
The Chen sisters, Shen Zhaodi and Zhou Chaoyang nodded at the same time.
Seeing how obedient they were, Zhou Ziwen was secretly happy. His mushroom group was considered to have been successfully established.
As for who the production team will arrange to come next, we will have to wait and see.
After dinner, Zhou Ziwen didn't do anything else. He just stayed in the yard of the Chen sisters' house for a while, training Tayun and improving his breeding skills.
After returning home, he observed the bean sprouts again.
After two days, the beans have broken out of their shells and some tender white sprouts can be seen.
Zhou Ziwen poured out the water, transferred the beans to the rice washing basket, and then found a towel to cover the beans.
Then I found a black plastic bag to seal the dung basket to prevent light from leaking out.
Next, we just have to wait for the bean sprouts to grow.
Just keep the towel moisturized every day.
Seeing that the beans had sprouted, Zhou Ziwen felt relieved.
Because as long as the beans sprout, it means that his sprouting is successful.
As long as there are no problems with the subsequent operation, you will be able to eat bean sprouts soon.
As for the quality of bean sprouts, they can only be distinguished by their taste.
Bean sprouts that don't sprout well taste bitter, while those that do sprout well taste sweeter.
By the time I finished processing the beans, it was already getting dark outside.
Zhou Ziwen didn't like hanging out outside, so he just lay on the bed and read.
He had bought three technical books at the time, and he had already digested all the knowledge about growing mushrooms and growing bean sprouts.
Even if I read more books, I won’t learn anything useful.
Because the knowledge points of the entire book are already in his mind.
All that remains is practice and then develop your own understanding.
But the book he read the longest was the Barefoot Doctor Manual.
One reason is that there is no idle time, so the proficiency level increases very slowly.
Secondly, this skill is quite difficult. Just to upgrade it to level one requires 500 proficiency points, which is ten times that of other skills.
It is precisely because of this that Zhou Ziwen gains new insights every time he reads this book.
And this book is especially suitable for killing time.
This was the case with Zhou Ziwen. As he watched, he felt sleepy.
So, as soon as he blew out the light, he fell asleep.
