"Is it about the same age as sweet potato starch?" Haitang had told many people about sweet potato starch and exchanged it for many things. Under these circumstances, several females asked about it. The sweet potato starch was well preserved. Now, these females would go out to find sweet potatoes and make sweet potato starch.
Once the sweet potato flour is made, it is stored away to be eaten in winter. In this situation, many people in the village are looking for sweet potatoes, so there are fewer and fewer sweet potatoes.
Of course, Haitang doesn't only make sweet potato starch; there are other products available now, so I don't eat sweet potato starch every day, and I currently have a lot in stock.
"Of course, this stuff can last for several springs and winters without any problems, and it can be used to make all sorts of delicious dishes. It's much better than sweet potato starch, as you just ate some."
Xiuxiu spoke directly. Under these circumstances, many females hesitated, while some nodded in agreement and brought the meat, but said, "If you are not satisfied, we will take it back."
"Of course, this flour is made from this stuff. But if you don't know how it's made, even if you bring back wheat, it won't be of any use." Of course, this is a lie.
Hearing this, the women were slightly taken aback. They didn't clamor for meat, but instead thought that wheat was available in many places. They had encountered it at the place where they went to pick wild fruits. Weren't they missing out on a lot of food?
"Once you've picked them and dried them, I'll teach you how to make them." Several females nodded and immediately went to pick them themselves, carrying baskets on their backs. Xiuxiu had originally planned to go find crabapple trees.
However, she hesitated and didn't go today. Instead, she went to gather things with other females. After waking up, Haitang went straight to look at the sausages. The sausages looked good. Haitang licked her lips, thinking that when the meat was ready, she would have a delicious meal to eat.
When Haitang saw this, she immediately smiled. Xiaohe and the others also woke up. After waking up, Haitang went out to pick some wild vegetables, then cooked a wild vegetable soup and some pancakes. Yueyue and Xingxing ate more, while Haitang and Xiaohe ate about the same amount as modern adult men.
Haitang could also realize that the humans in this world were indeed better than those in prehistoric times in every aspect of their physical condition. Prehistoric times? Haitang was a little helpless. Prehistoric times... that was the era she lived in. She never expected that in this future, it would become prehistoric times.
Haitang cooked something to eat. She didn't go to pick wheat today, but seeing that many women in the village had brought it back, she knew that Xiuxiu had gone to tell them. Xiaohe and Haitang went out to dig for wild vegetables, but unexpectedly encountered a female who had brought back wheat. She couldn't help but purse her lips.
"Sister..." The family will definitely go hungry from now on. We finally found this thing, but now it has been taken away by others. Our family will definitely have nothing to eat.
"Don't worry, I'm good at many things, I won't let Xiaohe go hungry," Haitang said to Xiaohe. Xiaohe nodded and looked into the distance, then started digging for wild vegetables with Haitang.
After digging for wild vegetables, Haitang took them back with her. There was still a lot of pork left over from yesterday, so Haitang used it to cook something. She cooked pig's blood rice and also made barbecue. Haitang also broke off some willow skewers. These are similar to willow branches, but they are very hard, have thorns but are not poisonous, and are about two meters long.
Haitang skewered the meat, which was marinated and leftover from making large intestines yesterday. After skewering the meat, Haitang asked Yueyue to go and get some firewood. There was a small thatched hut not far from the house where firewood was stored, but Haitang would not go there unless it was needed.
The worst thing was that there wouldn't be any firewood when it rained in winter. Of course, we would still use firewood if we got up early in the morning. Yueyue gathered a lot of firewood, and after Haitang started a fire, she waited for Shihu and the others to return.
Xiuxiu originally came to deliver something to Haitang, but she didn't expect to see intestines hanging in Haitang's house. "What is this thing?" she wondered.
"Sausages, these are dried now, so we can eat them in winter, and they taste pretty good," Haitang said, which surprised Xiuxiu.
"Do you have many ways to store food?" he asked, looking at Haitang. Haitang nodded.
“Yes, I have plenty. Second Aunt, you can go and tell the other females that I want one pig for every twenty people. I’ll teach you how to make sausages. These won’t spoil in winter, so you won’t have to worry about having too much meat at home and the men not going out, or going hungry because there’s not enough meat.” Haitang said.
Upon hearing this, Xiuxiu looked at Haitang and said, "You really know how to do business. But I'll go and talk to them. By the way, this is the meat I exchanged, which weighs about 100 jin. I'll get you 50 jin."
Haitang looked at it with some surprise, "This is yours, Second Aunt."
"It's not mine, it's yours." Xiuxiu had known Haitang for a long time and knew that Haitang knew all sorts of things. She thought that if she learned them, her family's life would be better. She liked this little advantage, but she wasn't stupid.
Hearing this, Haitang nodded in agreement. Xiuxiu looked at the food Haitang had prepared, then left without saying a word. Instead, she planned to learn how to make sausages. She wondered if they were just stuffed directly like that. Surely not, there must be some other technique involved.
While Haitang was grilling the meat, Shi Hu and Dongfang Long returned. The two had hunted another pig that day, and Shi Hu and Dongfang Long immediately went to process it. Haitang didn't stop them. By the time they finished processing it, the meat Haitang had grilled was just right.
While Shi Hu was sitting, Haitang brought him some grilled meat on skewers. Shi Hu started eating it, along with flatbread and wild vegetable soup. As he ate, his eyes lit up, "This is delicious."
"I'll make it for you guys when I have time later." The meat is delicious, but it takes too much time; I usually don't have the time.
Barbecue is such a hassle. If I hadn't gotten up so late today, I wouldn't have had time to make it.
"By the way, should we prepare this meat?" he asked, looking at Haitang. Haitang shook her head.
"Let's do it tomorrow. We can put it in the cellar; it won't spoil." The cellar is cool and refreshing, almost like a refrigerator. Although it doesn't have a quick-freeze effect, it's still fine for storing meat.
Dongfang Long's choice of food is quite good; the barbecue is delicious today. "By the way, A-Yue, wolves have been entering the village these past few days, be careful..."
"Hmm." Haitang nodded. The wolf went into the village to snatch children, but since there were courtyards in the village, it didn't manage to catch any because it made too much noise when it broke in, so it was quickly spotted by the beastmen.
Of course, because of this incident, everyone is paying more attention to the yard, and many people are working overtime to maintain it, all in order to prevent wild animals from breaking in and taking away the children.
