Chapter 155 Hot Pot
Strictly speaking, Niutou Mountain belonged to the production team, and the prey hunted also belonged to the production team.
But in general, no one cares too much about it. For example, if you're hunting a rabbit or a pheasant, whoever catches it gets it.
But if you encounter prey like wild boar, that’s a different story.
Generally speaking, the prey would be handed over to the production team, which would then distribute it to everyone, and those who caught the prey would get a larger share.
The roe deer that Zhou Ziwen killed was the kind that could be handed over or not, but Zhou Ziwen planned to keep it all by himself from the beginning and did not plan to hand it over to the production team.
There are more than a thousand people in the village, and his roe deer weighs less than 100 kilograms. If divided equally, it would be good if each person could get 6 cents.
This little bit of meat is not enough to fill the gaps between your teeth.
But if the meat is not divided, he can eat many meals of meat by himself, and it will not be a problem to eat enough at every meal.
With this calculation, you know what to do without having to think about it.
After arriving home, Zhou Ziwen closed the gate and began to skin and cut the meat of the roe deer while it was still fresh.
This roe deer has only been dead for less than half an hour, so it should still be able to bleed a little.
As it turned out, Zhou Ziwen was right. After he brought a basin and bled the roe deer, the blood that flowed out was still very fresh.
After collecting half a basin of blood, Zhou Ziwen hurriedly made blood soup.
After adding some water and salt and stirring it, Zhou Ziwen put the blood sausage aside.
He plans to have hotpot today, and just put the blood sausage directly into the pot and cook it.
After processing the roe deer's blood, Zhou Ziwen began to skin the roe deer. This thing was not easy for him to handle, so he planned to go to the county town in a few days to send it to his parents, and send them some meat by the way.
This wild game is very rare. After killing a roe deer, he also wants his family to taste it.
After peeling the skin, Zhou Ziwen began to cut the meat. He planned to keep the dead legs of the roe deer and send two to his family and two to his future father-in-law's home.
He will marry Chen Qiaoyi after the autumn harvest, and they will be a family. He also needs to be filial to his father-in-law and let them know that Chen Qiaoyi is not suffering by following him.
Zhou Ziwen was busy until it was almost time to get off work, and he finally finished processing the roe deer.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhou Ziwen washed his hands, went out, closed the gate, and walked towards the mushroom house.
Arriving at the mushroom house, Zhou Ziwen checked the growth progress of the mushrooms.
After a few days, the mycelium has sprouted, and clusters of small buds have emerged, giving the mushroom house a new look.
The members of the mushroom house were also very excited. They watched the mycelium grow and sprout little by little.
Zhou Ziwen gave them a few instructions and explained some knowledge about mushroom cultivation. Seeing that the time was almost up, he announced that they could go home.
"Brother Ziwen."
After everyone had left, Chen Qiaoyi came over and called out sweetly.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Zhou Ziwen asked.
"Nothing? I was just yelling." Chen Qiaoyi said with a smile.
"You girl." Zhou Ziwen rubbed her head with amusement.
"Oh, you two are so loving! I can't stand it anymore." Chen Zhaodi clicked her tongue beside them.
"Chen Zhaodi, I'm going to fight you." Chen Qiaoyi blushed with shame, and challenged her fiercely.
"Hehe, I can't catch it, I can't catch it." Shen Zhaodi made a face and ran away with a smile.
Looking at their youthful appearance, Zhou Ziwen smiled knowingly. This is how they should look at their age!
"Chaoyang, come to our house for dinner with Zhaodi later." Zhou Ziwen called out.
"Brother Zhou, what good news is there?" Zhou Chaoyang's eyes lit up and he became interested instantly.
"You'll know soon." Zhou Ziwen didn't say anything.
There are so many people around here, it's better to keep it a secret if possible.
The reason for inviting Zhou Chaoyang and Shen Zhaodi was, firstly, to treat them to something good, and secondly, it could not be kept secret.
Their houses are connected and even share the same walls. You can tell what they are eating by just smelling it.
Through this period of time together, he also knew that whether it was Zhou Chaoyang or Shen Zhaodi, they were not talkative people.
Since you can't hide it, you might as well not hide it from the beginning.
"What? It's still a secret." On this side, Chen Qiaoyi and Shen Zhaodi, who were laughing and joking, also heard the noise and came over.
"Go home first." Zhou Ziwen waved his hand and said no more.
Several people followed Zhou Ziwen in confusion, not knowing what he was talking about.
Soon, Zhou Ziwen returned home, opened the door, waited for Chen Qiaoyi and others to go in, and then closed the door again.
"So mysterious?"
Seeing Zhou Ziwen's cautious look, Chen Qiaoyi and others lowered their voices unconsciously.
Zhou Ziwen took them into the kitchen, where a piece of roe deer meat, almost cut, was placed on the chopping board.
Chen Shiying and others opened their eyes wide and almost couldn't help screaming.
"Brother Ziwen, what kind of meat is this? Where did you get so much of it?" Chen Qiaoyi asked carefully.
"I got it from the mountain. Where else could it come from?" Zhou Ziwen said with a relaxed smile.
"Is this a roe deer?" Zhou Chaoyang asked hesitantly, looking at the skinned roe deer head.
"Not bad, you are quite knowledgeable." Zhou Ziwen showed appreciation.
I have to say that Zhou Chaoyang is really knowledgeable. He can even recognize a skinned roe deer.
"I've seen it on the black market before." Zhou Chaoyang said proudly.
"You are really amazing. You even dare to go to the black market." Shen Zhaodi curled her lips, with some envy in her eyes.
When she was in the city, she had long wanted to go to the black market, but her family had never allowed her to do so.
"It's just like that if you go there too often." Zhou Chaoyang said lightly.
"Brother Ziwen, you are so awesome! You can even catch a roe deer." Chen Qiaoyi's eyes lit up, and her admiring look made Zhou Ziwen extremely proud.
"This roe deer is so stupid that it doesn't even hide when it sees me." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
Silly roe deer, silly roe deer, this thing is really stupid.
"How do you eat this meat?" Chen Shiying asked a professional question.
"Let's eat hotpot. We have blood sausage, which is delicious when made into hotpot." Zhou Ziwen said.
"That's great. I happen to have some chili peppers and peppercorns. I'll get them." When she heard about eating hot pot, Shen Zhaodi, a native of Sichuan and Chongqing, was the first to raise her hand in agreement.
"Come back." Zhou Ziwen hurriedly called her.
"What's wrong?" Shen Zhaodi looked at Zhou Ziwen in confusion.
"Remember, this matter must be kept secret, otherwise we won't be able to keep the roe deer." Zhou Ziwen said to them seriously.
"Don't worry, Brother Zhou, I won't tell you even if I die." Zhou Chaoyang was the first to speak and make the promise.
The Chen sisters also nodded seriously.
"Brother Zhou, I know, let's make a fortune quietly." Shen Zhaodi nodded hurriedly.
"That's right, let's eat quietly." Seeing that they all realized the seriousness of the matter, Zhou Ziwen was satisfied.
He believed that the Chen sisters, Zhou Chaoyang, and Shen Zhaodi were all people who knew the seriousness of the matter, but he still spoke up to remind them so that they wouldn't accidentally let the cat out of the bag.
