The educated youth were very surprised. They didn't expect that the people in the village were so thoughtful and took all these things into consideration. At the same time, they were also very happy. They had heard before that many educated youth didn't even have a pot to cook when they went to the countryside. How could anyone bear this?
Now it seems that they are very lucky and have been assigned to a very friendly village with a very good environment.
"Can we discuss this?"
"Of course." One of the members of the Singles Alliance said, "But if you don't mind, can I give you some advice?"
This guy used to be a salesman in a pharmacy, tricking all sorts of grandparents, grandpas, uncles, and fitness enthusiasts into buying a bunch of expensive health supplements or functional products. It's not that these things are bad, but there are good alternatives with good reviews, but... cough cough!!
He felt that the reason for traveling through time might be related to this inhuman behavior, but after coming here, he still couldn't change the habits left by his old job.
He spoke slowly and gently, which made people very convinced. Although he was relatively young, because what he said was closely related to what everyone needed and wanted, everyone was very willing to listen: "Okay, tell us about it. We are new here and are not familiar with many things. But we hope the price can be a little more favorable because we don't have much money ourselves."
The educated youth should be simple but not stupid. They must first point out that they do not have much money, so as to avoid being taken advantage of and cheated.
The member of the Singles Alliance smiled kindly and said, "I suggest you eat together. Firewood and other things require a lot of consumption over a long period of time. Winters here are very long, so remember to use it up. It's not a small amount. If you each start your own fire, it will only increase the consumption."
"I know that although there's firewood everywhere in the mountains, it's not free. Because the environment here is so harsh, many trees need to be transplanted. After the remaining trees are cut down, some need to be transported away, and the rest will be given to everyone. But you still need to carry the free wood back yourself, which is a very difficult task in itself. Not to mention that you are not very experienced in this matter, so it may cost you a lot."
The price here is actually the so-called transaction. Of course, we cannot say that now, so we can only hint at it vaguely.
The single guys were very proud. They had no idea about the various things happening in the countryside at that time, but after this period of training, they unexpectedly became able to educate the educated youth.
Hahahahaha!! I was feeling pretty smug inside, but I had to keep a calm face.
However, the educated youth did listen to it. You have to know that they were very aware of their own abilities. They had done so much work in the countryside and they were mentally prepared, so they didn't think they could understand these things better than the native people.
Even though the boy in front of him looked pale and tender, he was probably used to doing this kind of work, or at least used to seeing it, right? So since he said that, there must be a reason... right?
"You're right, then we should fire together, right?"
"Yeah, right, that's definitely better. And that way you only have to buy one pot. Pots are incredibly expensive and hard to come by these days. Even if you go to the supply and marketing cooperative, you might have to wait months to order one. I heard they're even more in demand than sugar."
The educated youth from the city believed this statement very much. Even in the city, this thing was hard to buy, let alone in such a remote place. "So who should we contact if we need a pot now? How long will it take to buy one? We don't have any pots with us, so we're quite worried about this. We can't go hungry for the next few days."
"It can be brought over the day after tomorrow. You can also take a look at the size and so on. Originally, these things should be prepared in the village, or you can bring them yourself, but apparently there are some minor problems. It's definitely not convenient to carry this thing so far, after all, it's a bit large."
This is nonsense. In fact, single people don’t even know if there is such a saying. Anyway, just bring it over and say it. They register today and place an order to the courier tomorrow, and it will be delivered naturally the day after tomorrow.
The educated youth also believed that this must be a faster way. You know, even if you go to the supply and marketing cooperative, you still need to wait for a while, and this thing may not be in stock.
"We just need a regular-sized pot."
"Okay, stone pot, clay pot, or iron pot?"
"Ah... stone pot?"
"This one is cheaper, but it's very heavy. It's a little inconvenient to take out or clean. I personally recommend using an iron pot."
"Then an iron pot will do."
"Do you need a wooden lid?"
The educated youth didn't seem to understand this very well. You know, back home, they weren't the type to spend all day around the stove. Some of them had never even washed a pot, let alone cooked. So at this time, they could only ask each other in confusion: "Does it matter if there is a pot lid or not?"
"Of course there is a difference," said another single person. Although he had never worked in the restaurant industry before, he was also a food blogger in addition to his main job, so he was quite familiar with these things. "Many dishes need to be simmered to absorb the flavor, and stewing will make things soft and mushy faster, so a pot lid is absolutely necessary. I suggest you get a bamboo steamer board that can be used inside the pot. If you add water at the bottom, you can put the bowl directly on top to heat it. This way, you can sometimes cook only one meal a day, and when you are tired, you can heat up the leftovers and eat them."
