This Tao Zhiqing is in a bad mood.
Not to mention the educated youth at the educated youth center, even Bai Lianshan and Uncle 깇 noticed that something was wrong.
Desperate, helpless, lifeless, as if they had lost hope. This was completely different from the reluctance and disappointment of the educated youth who went to the countryside.
Bai Lianshan and Uncle 깇 could still see that if they didn't pay attention, this educated youth might become depressed and commit suicide.
Such things are not uncommon, and have happened in many places. We must pay attention to them.
Therefore, Bai Lianshan instructed the male and female team leaders of the educated youth point to pay more attention to Tao Aihua and not to provoke her. After the autumn harvest, they would ask the child about her situation.
The captains of the two educated youth teams took this very seriously. After observing Tao Aihua, they found that she was in a bad mood, so they quickly asked the old educated youths to help keep an eye on her.
Tao Aihua didn't know that she had attracted everyone's attention. After she talked and cried for a while, she felt much better.
Then, from that night on, everyone was very friendly and caring to her, and went to work and worked with her.
The production team also adjusted the autumn harvest work for the newly arrived female educated youth and those in poor health. For example, they would harvest wheat and rice in the morning and pick corn or sweet potatoes in the afternoon. In short, everyone could take turns to do it.
In addition, with the ointment made by Uncle 깇 based on Qiao 깇's prescription and applied every day, everyone felt that it was not as hard as before.
Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan worked in the cave during the day, and had to go into the space to continue working at night.
While harvesting rice, I can also cook rice, boil water, make dough, steam buns, and boil eggs, all without any delay.
In the distance, fish in the river jumped out of the water from time to time, and schools of shrimps and crabs were also swimming in the river.
There were about eight sheep of different sizes eating grass and vegetables in a specially fenced sheepfold. These were the lambs that had grown up from the three lambs that had been bought.
The chickens in the space were even more amazing. There were nearly three dozen of them, big and small, and fifty or so eggs could be picked up every day. Even if they were eating non-stop every day, in addition to sending one to Su Huazhu and selling two to Cai Qingwen and others, there were still nearly forty baskets of eggs piled up in the warehouse of the courtyard, with more than one egg in each basket.
The chickens grew fast in the space, almost becoming a disaster. Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan could only come in every day to kill five chickens. After killing them, they either made chicken soup, or made white chicken, soy sauce chicken, braised chicken, roasted chicken, stewed chicken with potatoes, or stir-fried chicken with mushrooms and black fungus.
The chicken fat is all boiled down and can be used to stir-fry vegetables, saving a lot of lard.
There are more and more rabbits, mainly because they are too fertile. There are more than eight rabbits in a litter. Now there are more than 80 rabbits in the space. If we don't kill them frequently, there will be far less than this number.
After killing the rabbit, they couldn’t take it out for Su Ze and Zhou Wanwan to eat. They could only eat it themselves after it was cooked, with Qiao Jiru and Su Huaiyuan and their two little grandchildren.
Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan ate meat every day in the space. If they didn't have to work underground every day, they would definitely be discovered that they had grown fat.
Especially since the autumn harvest and the bitter summer recently, their stomachs were not so good, and the work required strength, so Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan had to lose some weight.
"After the autumn harvest, we have to sell some rabbits and chickens."
Qiao Ruru had a headache looking at so many rabbits, chickens and eggs. This is really a sweet burden. When there were none, she thought of every possible way, but now there are too many and she is worried again.
"Why don't we ask the sheep sellers if they want some? You guys are more suitable to sell these rabbits and chickens than us."
Su Huaiyuan thought of the people who had sold sheep to them before. These people should do this kind of thing frequently, so it would be more appropriate for them to sell it to them.
"We can sell them in batches much faster than if we sell them ten or eight at a time."
"That's right. We don't have that much time either. And if we go too often, it will attract other people's attention."
"What if we don't have that much money to buy it?! It seems like we don't need anything right now."
"If you don't have that much money, you can trade us mutton. It's not easy for you and me to kill a sheep in our space, so why not let you help us kill it?"
"Okay, Lao Su, that's a good idea."
The couple discussed and negotiated while collecting the food in the space, and finally solved the problem of too many chickens and rabbits.
It's a pity that we can't go too far due to our identities, otherwise we could go to the county and consume a small part of the food, chickens, fish, rabbits, and eggs in the space.
Now, these things can only be kept for our own consumption. Fortunately, they can be kept fresh in the space, and new food is still new food, and will not become old food.
After more than 20 days of hard work, everyone finally harvested the wheat and rice, and also a small part of the sweet potatoes and corn. Then came the corn, sweet potatoes, soybeans, cabbage, radish, and beets. Everyone worked for another 10 days and finally harvested them all.
The elderly, children, weak female volunteers, and female educated youth were responsible for drying the grain and peeling the corn.
During this period, Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan also sent Su Huazhu and the Song brothers and sisters three times of fine grains, chickens and eggs, and asked them not to save during the autumn harvest.
After harvesting the crops in the village, Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan quietly went to the black market in the commune in the late night when the sky was sparse.
This time, the two of us mainly went to find the one selling mutton, and then see if there was anything else they needed.
When the couple arrived at the commune, it was already a little after four in the morning. As a result, when they arrived at the black market, they were shocked by the people inside.
There are so many people.
More than any time we've been here before, at least three times more.
There are many people setting up stalls and many people coming to buy things. There were less than ten stalls before, but now there are nearly twenty.
More people came to the black market to buy things, and there were nearly fifty of them now.
Qiao Zhiru and Su Huaiyuan immediately covered their hats and masks. Fortunately, they had two masks and turned up their collars. They also smeared yellow medicine on their faces before coming. In addition, it was still dark, so no one could see their appearance clearly.
"pork!!!"
Qiao Ruru pulled Su Huaiyuan to the crowded places first, because the crowded places usually sell the most scarce and most desired things.
As she expected, the stall with the most people actually sold pork! Qiao Jiru's eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly pulled Su Huaiyuan in to buy pork.
It was not easy to come here, and it was not easy to see pork for sale, so Qiao Ruru would not be picky about which part of the pork to eat. On the contrary, she would take what others did not want.
Pig dealers like people like Qiao Ru the most. Not only do they buy a lot, but they also buy pork belly, pig trotters, pork bones and ribs, and they pay promptly.
Qiao Jiru and Su Huaiyuan didn't have that much time to waste, so they made a quick decision. It took them less than five minutes from squeezing in to getting out.
Then, they went to see another stall which was also crowded with people, and the couple were happy.
This stall sells mutton, and he is the person we are looking for. Of course, we don't buy mutton.
The couple walked around and found nothing they wanted to buy, so they left the black market, put the pork into the space, then took out five rabbits and returned to the black market.
After entering the black market again, the couple first went to the person in charge of the black market to pay 20 cents for the stall fee. The person in the black market wanted to see what they were selling, so Qiao Ruru showed them the rabbit in the basket.
When the people in the black market saw the five plump rabbits, their eyes lit up.
Few people come to this black market to sell rabbits. It is extremely rare to see them, so people in the black market are tempted.
"How much is one?!"
"Five dollars."
"This rabbit weighs about 18 kilograms. Without the fur and internal organs, it should have at least 5 kilograms of meat. Five dollars is not expensive."
Qiao Zhiru explained to the people in the black market that she had not yet counted the fur. This fur is also a good thing. If you collect more, you can make shoes or insoles, which are warm and comfortable.
Calculated this way, it is not expensive.
The man in the black market thought about it, asked for one and paid five dollars.
If Qiao Zhiru let him choose for himself, each one would weigh no less than 10 catties, and the heaviest one weighed more than 20 catties.
"땢志, how much is this rabbit for?!"
The man from the black market was still picking, and someone who was smart enough to sneak over to see what they were doing noticed the rabbit in the basket, and excitedly came over and asked in a low voice.
"Five dollars a piece."
Qiao Ru stretched out a palm towards the other party and replied in a low voice.
"I weigh about 25 pounds. I'm quite fat."
She even picked up a rabbit that the black market didn't like and showed it to the other party. It was indeed big and fat.
"Can you have less?!"
The other party immediately touched the rabbit all over and tried to bargain while touching it.
"It can't be less. This rabbit meat weighs nearly five kilograms. The fur is so fine and smooth. Whether I use it myself or sell it, it will be valuable."
Qiao Ru immediately refused. The products in her space were already sold at such a low price, which made her very sad. She still wanted her to lower the price? That was not possible.
Most importantly, rabbits are hard to come by! They are game!
The man thought about it and agreed that it could not be compared with pork or mutton.
So, 놛 also picked one and paid five dollars.
After selling two rabbits at once, the rest was much easier. The remaining three rabbits were all sold out in less than twenty minutes.
Qiao Ru looked at the time and saw that it was getting late, so she quickly took Su Huaiyuan to find someone selling mutton.
