The butcher sharpened the butcher knife, and after the men tied the pig up tightly, he took the butcher knife and stabbed it into the pig's neck.
The white knife went in and the red knife came out, and the slaughtered pig immediately let out a miserable and sharp cry.
Seeing the bloody and violent pig-killing scene, the newly arrived educated youth, especially the female ones, quickly covered their eyes, thinking it was too horrible and frightening.
However, those old educated youth who had witnessed the pig-slaughtering scene were much calmer. Not only were they not afraid, they also watched with great interest.
Most of the children in the team were used to this kind of scene. They did not panic or fear at all and just found it interesting.
These young children were much braver than the newly arrived educated youth when faced with the pig-slaughtering scene.
It was also the first time for Lin Xuan to see a pig being slaughtered, and she frowned as she watched.
In addition, he unconsciously tightened his arm around Jiang Li's.
Jiang Li felt that Lin Xuan seemed a little nervous, so he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong? Are you afraid of killing a pig?"
Lin Xuan would not admit that she was scared, and quickly shook her head, "What am I afraid of? Sister Li, I'm not that cowardly, I'm not afraid or not."
Jiang Li was too lazy to expose her. Even though she was so nervous, she still insisted that she was not afraid.
After one pig was killed and bled, they started killing the next one.
Because the team has a lot of people, they get busy quickly.
It didn't take long to kill all six pigs.
After the pig is slaughtered, the next step is to clean and process the pork.
The pig's hair had to be removed, and then the pig's intestines and stomach had to be cut open and all its internal organs cleaned out.
Remove the bones, cut the meat...
After working for almost a whole morning, the pork was finally cooked, and then everyone picked up their portion of meat.
Because there were many people in the team, each person had little meat on his hands and knees. On average, each person only weighed about 1.3 jin.
There are many large families in the brigade. For those without children, it is normal to have more than ten people. A little bit adds up to a lot, and a family can eat 30 kilograms of meat, which is considerable.
In addition to pork, there were also pig offal, pig bones, and pig blood, and everyone had a little bit of them.
Each person has an additional five kilograms of meat quota, but they need to spend money to buy it from the team.
One dollar per pound, no meat coupons required, still very cheap and cost-effective.
Things like spare ribs and bones are unlimited and you can buy as much as you want.
The same goes for pork heads. There is no limit on the quantity. You can buy as much as you want.
However, most families were in poor conditions, and even if they did not need tickets, many people still could not afford the price of one yuan per pound of meat.
Therefore, after buying the meat, only a few people have to pay for the meat themselves.
Lin Xuan was not short of money, and seeing that she could buy meat without a ticket, she directly bought five kilograms.
Her own quota was limited and she couldn't buy more, so she gave Zhang Lai Di five yuan and asked her to buy five kilograms of meat.
There is no limit on the amount of ribs you can eat. Lin Xuan bought another ten kilograms of ribs, which would be great for making rib soup later.
She and Zhang Lai Di were eating together, and Lin Xuan felt that buying so much would be enough for the New Year.
After she finished eating, she would go to the county town to buy more.
Jiang Li also bought an extra five kilograms of meat.
Jiang Li bought some ribs, large bones, and pork head.
Especially pig head meat, Jiang Li directly bought a whole pig head.
The pig head meat is braised and tastes very delicious.
