Chapter 234 The End of Extreme Cold
At 9 p.m., after two hours, Li Sijing finally finished making all the fish cakes.
Of course, while waiting for it to cool down, she also did some other things in the meantime.
For example, drying freshly harvested rice a little makes it easier to thresh.
I gave Wu Aiguo the portable oven I used to dry rice, and I've never returned it.
It's just a portable grill, nothing special, and Li Sijing wouldn't go so far as to ask the other party to return it.
As for making a new one, that's no problem, since she has the blueprints and materials.
But the key point is that she didn't leave any embers, and it would take time to reignite the fire. Moreover, it could only be used once, and wouldn't be usable in the next world.
So in the end, Li Sijing didn't do that, because she had other ways to dry the rice, such as a wardrobe dryer.
Divide the rice ears into several portions, tie them to a clothes hanger, and then hang the hanger on the closet dryer.
Of course, besides these rice ears, Li Sijing also hung up her worn down jacket and several cotton-padded coats to air them out, so they could be put away in the next world.
Zip up the wardrobe and turn on the dryer switch.
In just half an hour, most of the moisture had been dried. My first experience using this wardrobe dryer was quite good.
The paddy rice is threshed and then placed on the back shelf along with other paddy rice. There's no need to rush to husk it, since paddy rice is not as easy to store as rice paddies.
After finishing all her tasks and tidying up her desk, Li Sijing checked the time; it was only a little past nine.
At midnight, they will be teleported to a new world, and Li Sijing has no intention of sleeping before that.
There are still almost three hours until midnight, and sitting here like this isn't a good idea.
As for playing games, reading novels, or solving Rubik's Cubes, those seem like a waste of time.
Seeing that there was still a lot of blackfish meat piled up on the freezer, Li Sijing decided to continue processing the fish meat!
While we still have time, we can do more so we won't be caught off guard when we get to the new world.
The fish cakes are ready, now it's time to make fish balls. With the previous experience, this time it should be much faster.
However, when Li Sijing went to get the ingredients needed to make fish balls, she found that something was missing!
Everything else was fine, but the key issue was ginger; she really didn't have any at all.
You absolutely need ginger to make fish balls, since it's essential to suppress the fishy smell!
Upon opening the trading area, Li Sijing couldn't help but wonder if she could find ginger anytime soon.
No, she's currently very influential in the region. If she were to personally purchase ginger, she wouldn't believe it herself, let alone that it wouldn't cause any unforeseen problems.
Forget it, I'll just find someone to buy it for me!
Fortunately, once we reach the new world and merge with other regions, this situation should improve significantly.
As for who would handle the purchasing, Li Sijing chose Zhou Qinghuan without hesitation.
After all, while others might need time to find ginger, Zhou Qinghuan would certainly not waste any time, something Li Sijing was very confident about.
Zhou Qinghuan agreed to Li Sijing's request without hesitation, after all, she thought Li Sijing was going to make fish cakes!
Just as Li Sijing had guessed, Zhou Qinghuan sent over a pound of ginger in less than two minutes, which was really fast.
She asked about the price of ginger, but Zhou Qinghuan refused to answer.
Li Sijing didn't press the matter further. She figured she could just send over more fish cakes later as compensation.
With all the materials gathered, we can begin making it.
However, before taking action, Li Sijing suddenly remembered something.
She got the car music from the intermediate resource box yesterday, but she hasn't used it yet, right? It's good to have it running now, it'll make the production process less boring.
With the car body providing some insulation, as long as the music isn't played at maximum volume, there shouldn't be any problems.
So, Li Sijing listened to music while making fish balls.
They still took out 60 jin of black carp meat and the remaining 30 eggs, and very economically used only half a jin of ginger.
This time, with the egg beater, Li Sijing no longer had to manually stir the egg whites, saving her a lot of time.
It took more than two hours, and I don't know how many times I changed the water, to finally make all the ingredients into fish balls.
She took out the fish balls after rinsing them in cold water, and counted them as she packed them up. After counting them all, there were a total of 1,502 fish balls.
In other words, a total of 120 catties of blackfish meat, 90 eggs, and various ingredients were used to make 60 catties of fish cake and 1,502 fish balls.
After tidying up the car, Li Sijing checked the time again. It was already 11:26, and there was still half an hour left before midnight.
Touching her somewhat empty stomach, Li Sijing decided to reward herself for her hard work with the food she had just prepared.
Half a pound of sliced fish cake, 20 fish balls, a few soaked shiitake mushrooms, a little bit of bean sprouts, and two spinach leaves are used to make a bowl of fragrant fish ball and fish cake soup.
The fish soup was simmering in the pot, and Li Sijing was cleaning up the fruits of her labor over the past few hours.
First, I took out 5 catties of fish cake, which was what I had promised to give to Liu Yizhou.
Next came 6 catties of fish cake, which was promised to Zhou Qinghuan. One catty of it was the reward for the catty of ginger that the other party sent.
After thinking for a moment, Li Sijing put 20 fish balls into each serving. It wasn't a lot, just enough for them to try.
Although it was very late, Li Sijing guessed that they were waiting for midnight to arrive, just like her.
So without delay, after allocating the tasks, they were sent directly to the two people.
As expected, the two of them hadn't slept. After receiving the goods, they immediately sent over the agreed-upon payment.
Keep the three fuel tank expansion blueprints safe; they can be used after the car is upgraded again.
The five pounds of beef, which had only been returned to the other party not long ago, had returned to her hands again, so Li Sijing could only put it back in its previous place.
As for the remaining 48.5 jin of fish cake and 1442 fish balls, they are also planned to be placed in the freezer.
Unfortunately, the little space that had been freed up in the freezer was already full after the fish cakes were placed in, so the fish balls had to be placed in the intercom space for the time being.
As for the 77 jin of black carp meat remaining on the freezer lid, there's no time to deal with it right now.
The world is about to change, and if it stays outside, it will probably break down soon, so Li Sijing can only put it in the mesospace for now.
After these things were placed inside, the one-cubic-meter space was completely filled, with no extra space left.
As a result, the originally very convenient meson space has become very troublesome to use.
Li Sijing can only hope that after the world changes, she will truly have a second meson space; otherwise, she really can't stand it if things continue like this.
