Chapter 7
"Why are you in a daze? I moved the float board over to make it easier to move things back and forth. By the way, I polished the coconut shell you used before I went out. Now it can be used as a coconut bowl to hold something. Divide the other things first, and I will make more coconut bowls for you." Li Mu did not prepare to get on Qiao Sheng's float board, but walked to the side of the float board with the coconut bowl, stretched out his hand to pass it, and explained the reason why he did so. "
Ah? Thank you, I was thinking about how to pour the coconut oil in the pot into the glass bottle. I don't have any tools, and the bottle mouth is too small, so it's too difficult to operate." Qiao Sheng heard the voice and saw Li Mu's outstretched hand. He went over to take the coconut bowl first, and then told him his difficulties.
However, what was a problem for Qiao Sheng was not a problem for Li Mu, a master of DIY. He found a piece of plastic, lit the stove, and when the plastic softened slightly, he quickly kneaded it into the shape of a funnel, used a machete to grind off the tip, put it in the glass bottle and tried it out, and it was quite suitable.
Li Mu squatted beside the stove, holding the glass bottle and funnel to signal Qiao Sheng that he could pour it. It was indeed much more convenient with the tools. A dozen coconuts only took a glass bottle and a coconut bowl to boil the coconut oil.
The amount was not too much, so Qiao Sheng gave the full bottle of coconut oil to Li Mu. Now that she had the tools, she could make more anytime. She only needed to leave enough at the bottom of the bowl to make the next two days' meals. Li Mu's kitchen was useless, and before she learned how to make coconut oil, she would probably have to rely on this bottle of oil to survive.
Li Mu took the coconut oil given by Qiao Sheng back to his float, and began to take things out of his small leather bag. He didn't keep any of the 99 coconuts, and gave them all to Qiao Sheng. After all, he had just been given a full bottle of coconut oil, which was equivalent to a whole pot. There were plenty of coconuts on the island, and it was not an immediate need. He could pick some more on the island before leaving.
Wood planks and coconut leaves are consumables. They each packed two 99 bags. Now each person has one bag. Li Mu squatted on the edge of the floating board and handed them to Qiao Sheng. Qiao Sheng thought it was troublesome to move things around, so he pulled a medium-sized storage box nearby. Li Mu took out the things and she put them in.
As for the other things, the corn was divided into half for each person, and the other things had to be processed before they could be divided.
Qiao Sheng took the corn and went to see the crops in the shoe basin. The potatoes and sweet potatoes planted before were ripe. They were dug out and put aside. He turned around and asked Li Mu with the corn in his hand whether the corn should be planted as a whole or by digging out the grains.
"Corn grains can be planted, but where should they be planted?" Li Mu, who was squatting on the edge of the floating board and peeling rabbit skins, was stunned. He looked at Qiao Sheng sitting on the floating board with corn in his hand and two pairs of shoes in front of him.
"A shoe basin, you can plant things. I caught it from the sea. It should be a new shoe. It looked quite clean when I caught it." Qiao Sheng looked at Li Mu's slightly wrinkled eyebrows and explained quickly.
"I had never collected any plants before, so I didn't know I could plant things." In order to survive, Li Mu didn't hesitate and asked Qiao Sheng if he could clean up these dead rabbits. If possible, he was going to dig some soil on the island. Inspired by the shoe basin, he would try to make a planting basin. After all, the capacity of the shoe basin looked small, and it would be too strenuous to plant one seed at a time.
Qiao Sheng picked up a few corn kernels and was about to stuff two into a shoe basin when she reminded her that each shoe basin could only hold one seed. She planted the corn kernels into the shoe basin, poured in fresh water, and added sea water to the filter to let it continue working.
Then she stepped onto Li Mu's floating board and took over his job of cleaning up the rabbits. Someone else had done the job. Li Mu took the fresh water, put the wild boars and other plants in the small leather bag on the floating board, and then walked towards the forest on the island.
This was also the first time Qiao Sheng cleaned up rabbits. In the past, if she wanted to eat rabbit meat at home, she would directly order takeout. Even if she wanted to cook it herself, she would go directly to the market or supermarket to buy the cleaned rabbit meat. She had never experienced the hard work of cooking.
It took a lot of time just to skin the rabbits. After skinning more than a dozen rabbits, they were piled aside. I used a machete to chop off the rabbit heads one by one. A dozen rabbit heads were put on a piece, which looked like a big pile.
As for the rabbit entrails, it might not taste good without seasoning. The main reason was that this hunting trip yielded a lot of gains, not only rabbits, but also wild boars, so I didn't worry about the entrails.
I took a banana leaf from the supplies that Li Mu had piled aside, put all the dirt I had cleaned up inside, and threw it in a corner to wait for the game to refresh. I just felt sorry for the dozen rabbit heads, spicy rabbit heads, and wanted to eat them...
After cleaning up the dozen rabbits, seeing that Li Mu had not returned yet, Qiao Sheng looked at the position of the sun and decided to take two of the cleaned rabbits back to his floating board and start cooking dinner.
It was called cooking, but it was actually very simple. I washed them first, then threw the two rabbits on the simple grill, took two potatoes, washed them and put them on, sprinkled some salt, and added wooden boards as fuel. The rest was to wait.
After eating barbecue for several days, today she changed her taste from fish to rabbit meat. Looking at the iron pot on the stove, Qiao Sheng decided to make another soup. In order to prolong the freshness of the fish she caught before, she had prepared them and put them on the grill to cook. Now she took out two pieces of grilled fish, put them in the iron pot, added fresh water and salt to boil. She
also found the kelp she caught two days ago in the storage box. Without scissors, she used a machete to cut it into several pieces and threw it into the pot. She also picked up two corns and cut them into small pieces and put them in the pot.
Qiao Sheng was not idle afterwards. She took the newly distributed coconut, peeled the coconut shell, waited for the fish, kelp and corn soup to be cooked, and saw that Li Mu had not come back yet, so she moved out the small stool and started to scrape the coconut.
She felt that she was really not good at cleaning wild boars. She couldn't tell the roots, stems and leaves of ramie. If she made a mistake, wouldn't it be a waste of good things?
She had only bought finished cotton. She just put her fingers in and touched it, and felt the grains. She really didn't know the structure of this thing. She still had to wait for the big boss to come back and popularize it before she could operate.
When Li Mu came back, he was still carrying his small leather bag, with a machete on his waist and a bunch of green and red peppers in his hands. When he came back, he saw Qiao Sheng still rubbing coconut flakes. Looking at his float, the rabbits had been cut up, the meat was meat, the skin was skin, and the dirt was placed on the banana leaves.
After praising Qiao Sheng for her efficiency, Li Mu got on Qiao Sheng's boat with his small bag on his back. He gave her the green and red peppers first, saying that he had encountered a lot of things that could be collected when he went to dig the soil just now. He picked up the peppers by hand because he couldn't put them in his bag.
Qiao Sheng was very happy to see the vegetables. After all, she really hadn't seen green vegetables for so many days. There happened to be rabbit meat, so she cut some peppers and stir-fried them, which could be considered a stir-fry.
Putting down the half-rubbed coconut in his hand, Qiao Sheng first cleaned the chili peppers, half red and half green, cut the peppers, and asked Li Mu to throw over a cleaned rabbit, cut it into pieces, and heat the oil in a pan. If there is not enough seasoning, just eat it in its original state, at least there is some coconut oil and salt.
When it was fried and served, Qiao Sheng still regretted that the fire was not strong enough, otherwise it would be more delicious if it was fried over a high fire.
The table was made by Li Mu using several wooden boards, the bowl was made from coconut shells, and the chopsticks were split from wooden boards. Li Mu still regretted that there was no bamboo on this island, saying that bamboo chopsticks are more useful.
There were no plates, so Qiao Sheng divided the fried rabbit meat with peppers into two bowls, half for each person. There was a lot of soup, so he first served two bowls, and if it was not enough, he would go to the pot to serve more. The two roasted rabbits and roasted potatoes were each half.
A bowl of soup and a bowl of fried rabbit meat already filled Qiao Sheng's stomach. Seeing that Li Mu was eating so deliciously, she quietly pushed the untouched roasted rabbit meat and potatoes to
him. It was estimated that he hadn't eaten a good meal for several days. When he wasn't paying attention, Li Mu ate too much. Looking at the table full of rabbit bones, he felt embarrassed. After all, he had never been so incompetent in front of others.
"Take a rest for a while, and clean up the two wild boars before going to bed. I will be on the floating board for the next two days, and try to cook them as much as possible to increase their freshness and try to let you eat for a few more days." Qiao Sheng saw that the other party was embarrassed at a glance, but did not expose her, but said that she must shoulder the responsibility of the cook in the next few days.
In return, Li Mu also quickly told Qiao Sheng about his existing atlas. What she didn't expect was that Li Mu, the big guy, not only had pots and pans, he also had kitchen knives! And the thing blocked by wooden boards and leaves turned out to be a toilet!
According to Li Mu's explanation, the garbage on the floating board normally refreshes at midnight, but the things thrown into the toilet refresh immediately.
Qiao Sheng spent two days like this, taking care of the small ones in the sea and enduring the big ones. At this moment, she felt that Li Mu was simply a gift from God to her thighs with gold edges, black and thick. Before meeting him, she even thought that in two days, she might shamelessly take care of this matter in the sea.
After Li Mu finished his introduction, Qiao Sheng began to count the atlases on her side. There weren't too many. After comparing them, the only things Li Mu didn't have were the medium-sized storage box and the simple grill. Not to mention her low-end seawater filter, the one on his float was obviously more advanced.
As for Li Mu's things, Qiao Sheng didn't have many, such as kitchen knives, toilets, and various daily necessities. There were
many things that were not good. Qiao Sheng originally wanted to try to generate a new atlas and then learn from each other. Facts have proved that dog games never let players benefit. They don't even give players the opportunity to sell atlases freely.
Qiao Sheng had no choice but to pack up the supplies in his hands and prepare to hand them over to Li Mu and place an order with him.
She wanted to make it without a diagram, but after failing twice, she became completely honest. If you don't take the shortcut, you're a fool. She pushed a bunch of supplies to the junction of the floating boards and found that Li Mu's floating board was already full of various supplies he had collected.
Qiao Sheng wanted to push the things over but there was no place to put them, so he had to make six medium-sized storage boxes for him to clean up.
