Chapter 79 Stockpiling Food



I've made this at home before...

Feng Ran looked at the messy glutinous rice balls in her hand and couldn't help but complain.

Then look at what everyone else has; they all have the same thing.

"What happened?"

Feng Ran looked at the others, and they all shook their heads.

There was no other way, so Fengran redid several more and finally slowly figured out the problem.

After that, it got better and better. I became more and more skilled at it.

Everyone spent the whole day making rice balls and the whole day eating rice balls.

After dinner, Feng Ran sighed, saying she couldn't do this job; it was too tiring. She planned to hire Wang San San's older sister to do it when he came again.

...

Mayor's Office of Chimin Ward.

What are the recent data on the Chinese herbal medicines in the greenhouse?

"According to experts, the growth rate is good. If it continues, it can be successfully cultivated. However, its medicinal properties may not be as strong as those of wild plants."

"As long as it works. See..."

"What is this?" Han Guosheng looked at the map he had just received from the mayor, completely bewildered.

"The new greenhouse site will be selected, following the same model as before."

The existing greenhouses will retain enough management personnel, and the rest will be used for new construction.

This time, all fifty mu of land will be planted with cold-resistant wheat.

"all?"

"All of them. Let the researchers study and develop some other cold-resistant grains."

"yes."

"Okay, let's go."

...

Han Guosheng only relaxed and let out a sigh of relief after walking a long way out of the office.

Fortunately, the food shortage was made up this time, otherwise I wouldn't even know where I would be dead right now!

I still need to work hard...

...

"Chicken droppings? Rabbit droppings?"

"Yes. There's already a lot piled up in the space," Qi Xie said.

"Get it away right now. It stinks!" Li Luo said, speechless.

He really was exposed to the fumes for a very long time!

"Don't you absorb anything from your space?"

"..."

"No," Qi Xie said.

"Well... how about I give you plastic bags to pack it up and seal it? We can take it out when we need it later."

"Just throw it away," Li Luo said.

"That's... such a waste. Let's keep it. We can use it when we're farming outside."

“Okay,” Qi Xie agreed.

Anyway, I'm just idling around, and what Feng Ran said makes sense.

Li Luo and Qi Xie began working in the space.

The other three were making roast chicken.

I'm planning to have roast chicken, rice, and stir-fried vegetables for lunch.

A week later, Wang San San finally delivered eight blankets.

The wind will distribute a portion to everyone. Use it however you like.

At the same time, Feng Ran invited several women from the Wang family to come over and make her another batch of fast food.

On the first day, they were asked to make dozens of pots of spicy stir-fried rabbit meat.

The next day, over a hundred scallion pancakes were made. Feng Ran and the others couldn't stop eating them. Anyway, there were plenty of scallions in the space.

Feng Ran then had them make scallion pancakes for three more days.

Next up are steamed buns.

They spent three days making those big, fluffy steamed buns.

They're all unfilled, so they're made very quickly. Plus, Wang Nana has her own sourdough starter, so she can make sweet and fluffy steamed buns without yeast.

Feng Ran then had them steam the dough into the shape of pocket bread.

I made pocket bread for five days in total. There were definitely several thousand.

Next, we'll prepare the side dishes.

A bowl of shredded potatoes with chili peppers.

I fried a bunch of Orleans pork tenderloin. And some small sausages too.

Fried eggs are also a must, and luckily I can collect quite a few eggs from my online space every day.

They were all deep-fried by Wang Nana and the others all at once.

Feng Ran noticed the longing look in Wang Lili's eyes as she fried the eggs. At the end of the workday, in addition to the standard ten jin of grain per person, they were given ten extra eggs.

Actually, the food we're given every day consists of taro, winter melon, pumpkin, potatoes, radishes, and the like. Now that the weather's cold, we're not worried about it spoiling. A few times, we've mixed in some new rice.

Feng Ran gave several people a day off, telling them to come back after a day for new work.

The group was initially reluctant, quickly saying it wasn't hard work. However, Feng Ran refused.

Insist that they come back another day.

When the group came back on the third day, Feng Ran asked them to make some of their signature pickled vegetables or sauces.

Aunt Wang prepared a large bucket of moon-shaped steamed bun sauce. It was made according to her cooking skills. After it was done, it became very fragrant and spicy. Spread it on the moon-shaped steamed buns, then stuff them with pork tenderloin, grilled sausage, fried egg, and lettuce. It tasted even better than store-bought sauce.

Feng Ran found some clean, airtight jars for her to continue making.

I made the sauce for seven or eight days straight, and my aunt even estimated the ingredients and adjusted it to have mild, sweet and spicy flavors.

To be honest, Feng Ran was extremely satisfied.

On their last day, when they went home, Feng Ran gave them a rabbit as a gift.

They were also instructed to tell Wang San San to bring two people to collect the royal beans tomorrow.

Ask them to make some tofu pudding, dried tofu, and tofu skin for you.

Especially the bean curd sheets!

How can a moon-shaped steamed bun be without bean curd skin...?

...

"Are you here?"

"Hmm. I heard you want to make some bean products."

"Yes. Your sister said that all the machines and tools your family made were taken to the cave by you."

Yes. Most soy products are fine.

"That's good. Make plenty of tofu pudding, bean curd sheets, and dried tofu. You can decide on the rest."

Here are four bags of soybeans.

"Keep half a bag as payment, and do the rest."

"Okay. I'll send you a batch tomorrow."

"Okay. Oh, by the way, go home and ask your sister if she knows how to make fried bean balls. If she does, have them come over tomorrow and fry some for me."
