Chapter 162 Eating Snails

Moreover, the fungus they grow has spiritual spring water, which makes it smoother and more tender in taste. Therefore, it doesn’t matter how high the grade is. As long as it tastes good and has many benefits for the body, there will definitely be many people willing to buy it, especially those old customers who have already tasted its flavor.

After Huo Beixi finished eating the fish, Hua Xiali went back with the clean empty bowl. She walked through the alley next to her third uncle's house, and came to her own rice field after exiting the alley. She then poured half a bowl of spiritual spring water directly into the rice field, and then squatted there and waited quietly.

After a while, I saw a shocking scene.

Fish, loaches, eels and even snails were seen flocking here, and even water fish. Eels are worthless now, but in a few years the price will directly rise to ten yuan per pound. Hua Xiali relied on the money earned from selling eels to successfully send her two children to middle school in the city!

Hua Xiali accepted it without any hesitation. If she didn't make any money now, she could keep it in the space for a few years before taking it out!

Hua Xiali didn't want the snails at first, but they were all crowded together, so she just accepted them. She was too lazy to deal with them, it was too troublesome, but she could sell them to others later.

In the future, the vegetable markets will sell all kinds of things, and people in the future will eat everything, and they will pay attention to the purity and wildness of everything.

With the spiritual spring water added to the rice fields, the rice will surely grow well and the yield will be higher than before. Hua Xiali was afraid that his yield would be much higher than everyone else's and would arouse everyone's suspicion, so he turned around and added half a bowl of spiritual spring water to the rice field next door. Since everyone's yield would increase together, naturally no one would be suspicious.

The most important thing is that she received a lot of seafood, so in a sense she still made money, because these seafood are more profitable than rice.

In front of the first row of houses in the flower estate are rice fields, but Hua Xiali did not have that much time, so she only did the same tonight on the six rice fields near her own home and went home with a fruitful harvest.

Now that it has rained, there is water in the rice fields and ditches. The remaining rice fields can be treated slowly, as the water will not dry up in just a few days anyway.

After returning home, Hua Xiali went to the kitchen, took out a wooden basin, poured a basin of snails into it, and then added water to keep them for a few more days so that the dirt in their bodies could be vomited out completely, and then he could cook them when Hua Chunli and Hua Qiuli came back on the weekend.

Since they wanted to come on their own, she would not be polite.

Hua Xiali went to the bathroom to wash up briefly, then went back to her room upstairs to rest.

The next morning, Hua Xiali had just come down from the building when he heard his mother complaining in the kitchen, "What are you doing catching so many snails? They don't taste good."

"Mom, why do you think everything tastes bad? Did you forget the crucian carp seeds from yesterday? Is there anything I made that doesn't taste good?" Hua Xiali yawned as she walked over. "In a few days, when big sister and little sister come back, I'll make it for you to try. I guarantee you'll want to eat more."

Don’t think that snails are worthless now because no one eats them. In the future, they will be something that most people will not be willing to eat. A plastic takeaway box costs twenty yuan, which is less than one pound.

In his previous life, when the children wanted to eat, Hua Xiali would take them back to the village during the holidays, go to the rivers and ditches to fish, and then cook for them. Not only did it cost no money, but they could also enjoy the food to their heart's content.

But snails are difficult to handle, so when she first started her business, she chose to make brine instead of snails. Snails require no capital, which means that you can make as much as you make. But it is too time-consuming. You have to feed them in clean water for a few days to let them spit out the mud and sand in their bodies, and then you have to cut off their tails one by one. You really can't make much in a day.

If it was just a part-time job to earn a few dollars a day, it would be fine, but she urgently needed the money, and this pace was too slow for her.

If the snail hadn't come over for the spiritual spring water last night, she would never have thought about the snail at all!

After breakfast, it started to drizzle again, but this did not affect everyone's making of halogen dishes, because there was a shed over the stove at the back, so even if it rained, it would not affect the inside.

After having breakfast, Hua Xiali went back to her room upstairs and sat by the window reading a book seriously. Her wonderful life in her previous life was ruined by the scumbag Hua Tiefeng, so she wanted to fight hard in this life.

The weekend soon arrived and Hua Qiuli came back, but she didn't expect that Gao Shuaiquan also came shortly after she got home.

Gao Shuaiquan was Hua Qiuli's savior, so Hua Xiali and the others couldn't say anything when he came. Anyway, there was a vacant room in their house, so they let him stay. At most, they could just consider it as him coming to improve his food before the exam.

After all, Hua Chunli was studying at a university in the city, which was quite far away. By the time she returned home after class in the evening, it would have been dark. But she returned by train, and when she arrived at the train station in town, Zhang Yongfeng would pick her up, so she didn't have to worry too much.

In the past few nights, Hua Xiali has already run through the two rows of rice fields in front of the house and the ditches in front of the rice fields. Next, she plans to run through other rice fields in the village, as if to quietly add some fertilizer to everyone's crops, so that everyone's crops can increase their yields this year!

The next morning, after breakfast, Hua Xiali asked Gao Shuaiquan to help her carry the snails raised in the kitchen to the backyard. He often came to her house for dinner, so it wasn't too much to ask him to do such a small thing, right?

Hua Xiali first washed the snails several times and cleaned them thoroughly. Then he found some pliers and everyone worked together to cut off the snails' tails. This way, the snails would be more flavorful and taste better.

There is strength in numbers. It didn't take long to finish a large pot of snails. Then everyone carried the snails to the kitchen together. There were too many snails to finish in one pot, so they had to be cooked separately.

Hua Xiali filled an enamel basin as big as a washbasin with snails. After Gao Shuaiquan heated the oil in the pot, Hua Xiali fried the scallions, ginger and garlic until fragrant, then poured the snails directly into the pot. He then handed the spatula to Zhang Yongfeng, asking him to be responsible for the subsequent stir-frying.

When it's almost done, let him add various seasonings, then add water and simmer for a while. One pot is ready in about half an hour.

A large pot of snails was made, and five pots in total were made. One pot was given to my third uncle and one to my fourth uncle's family, and the remaining three pots were eaten by them at home.

Afterwards, Zhang Yongfeng also cooked crucian carp. He had said before that he would learn how to cook it and make it for Hua Chunli. Now that Hua Chunli is back, he can finally cook it for her.

Then I fried some vegetables and lunch was ready.

In June and July, all kinds of vegetables are grown, and this is the time when there is no shortage of vegetables to eat.
