My 1995 Small Farm.

"Oh, there is also ice meat. I haven't eaten it for a long time."

Chen Ling smiled and touched Liu Ni'er's head. It was not even the end of the first lunar month yet, and it was snowing heavily. Many villagers were preparing food at home.

The so-called "ice meat" is actually not made of ice.

There wasn't even a speck of ice in it.

In other words, it is used to cheer up the kids at home during the Chinese New Year, especially on snowy days.

Bingling meat is made with shochu, sugar, saccharin and pure fat.

It takes several days to marinate.

After being marinated, the fat becomes as white as ice and crystal clear.

This ice meat is not only a snack for children, but also a way to satisfy their cravings.

It can also be used as some snacks, such as meat heart disease, ice meat dumplings and the like.

It is delicious even if eaten alone. It has a sweet and refreshing taste, not greasy or fat, and is very suitable for little kids to satisfy their cravings.

"Da Hui, if you eat poop again, I will punish you to keep watch in the snow tonight!"

The little kids were having fun when Liu Nier suddenly screamed. It turned out to be his wolf pup. It picked up the frozen poop that Ruirui left yesterday and jumped onto the firewood pile.

It wagged its tail at Chen Ling and the others with a grin, and its tail was spinning like a windmill.

But he just refused to give in.

"Liu Ni'er, don't worry. It's cold now. The poop is frozen hard, just like a popsicle. It's not dirty. Just think of it as your dog eating a popsicle..."

Snotty Kid advised.

Chen Ling was speechless after hearing this: "Alright, alright, you guys are not disgusting. You are eating with food in your hands and pooping in your mouth. Isn't that disgusting? Get out of the way."

Several little kids started giggling when they heard this.

"Heihei, come here, go up and hit it!"

At this time, Ruirui ran out wearing a round suit and a tiger-skin hat, and saw the wolf cubs frolicking on his own firewood pile.

The little brat couldn't stand this naughty dog, so he pointed his little hand upwards and asked Heiwa to go up and teach it a lesson.

Heiwa is the favorite kid.

He rushed over upon hearing the sound.

But he didn't expect that the ground was too slippery after the snow and Heiwa was too heavy, so he failed to jump up and instead hit his head on the firewood pile, causing snow to fall off.

Heiwa was so angry now, and felt his authority was greatly damaged, he barked at the little wolf-dog and told it to get off quickly.

The little wolf and puppy were so scared that they no longer dared to run wild.

He quickly lowered his head, tucked his tail between his legs and came over to please.

"Okay, don't scare it. This puppy is still ignorant. We can teach it slowly in the future."

Chen Ling touched his son's head and said to Liu Ni'er and the others, "Let's go inside. The TV is on. Let's go watch TV. It's cold outside."

Then all the dolls left with a rumble.

After a while, I saw Chen Ling and several men shoveling and sweeping snow in the yard.

The group of little kids came out again, each holding a tool, and followed behind them, shoveling snow and playing.

There are many women and children in the family, so they shouldn't sweep the snow when it's still snowing.

Unfortunately, the snow was falling extremely heavily at the foot of the mountain, and it soon became a thick layer that had to be swept away.

If you don’t sweep, you will soon be unable to get out.

"Fugui, did you hide this fish secretly before or did you find it again? How come there are so many red eels under the snow and ice?"

Zhao Dahai was sweeping the snow. When he reached two winding canals, the ice surface suddenly became visible, and he saw a group of small red fish crawling motionlessly under the water.

Some of them lay on the rocks, some squeezed into the cracks of the rocks, and some that were slightly larger even drilled holes at the bottom of the water, leaving only their heads exposed.

"It's just a red eel, is it worth making such a fuss?"

Chen Ling walked over with a speechless look on his face: "The two red eels I sold two years ago to Professor Han and his team, and they have artificially bred this new species...

These are the newly bred ones.

I remember telling you this before, have you forgotten? Or did you not remember it at all? "

"Ah? Damn, did you say that?"

Zhao Dahai was confused: "I was thinking of reporting you, but it turns out that this fish is worthless."

"Report? What do you want to report Fugui for? You don't think he cheated me, do you?"

The mountain cat laughed when he heard this.

When he and Professor Han bought the two fish from Chen Ling, they did spend a lot of money.

In 1995, one fish cost more than ten thousand yuan.

In the eyes of some wealthy people, this is not a small amount of money.

What’s even more exaggerated is that they are not ornamental fish, but two mutant eels.

To outsiders, this does seem a bit unreasonable.

"Trick, I don't mean to trick people, but I'm so familiar with Fugui, I don't know who he is..."

Zhao Dahai said with a hint of complaint: "The point is that I like this fish too. Didn't I tell you at the time that I wanted to raise two for fun?"

"Then you go ahead and fish it out."

Chen Ling smiled: "It's not difficult to raise them. There are plenty of them underwater."

Shanmao immediately said, "You're still raising fish. Fugui told you before that Uncle Han has already bred these fish, but you didn't pay much attention to it."

"Well, I was busy then. I haven't been idle for the past two years. I just got some free time, so I had this thought."

Zhao Dahai himself also felt strange. His memory was obviously not bad, but he just couldn't remember when Chen Ling said that.

Chen Ling then reminded him: "I told you this once when I went to the city, but I was having dinner at your house at that time, and I told you on the phone. It's understandable that you don't remember it."

"Oh, I remember now. That time, Fugui brought Heiwa and Xiaojin, as well as Erhei, riding a motorcycle and carrying a dog, and killed their way there."

The mountain cat clapped his hands in sudden realization.

Liang Yuemin also said he had an impression.

Zhao Dahai was indeed not at home at that time.

"Well, I was wondering why you didn't have any recollection of it. It turned out that you said it on the phone. That's not surprising."

Only then did Zhao Dahai smile.

"But Fugui is a really well-fed fish. It's so energetic and pretty even in the middle of winter. It's really eye-catching." True.

Chen Ling and the fish in these two small canals.

In addition to the bright red red eel, there are also several other types of fish, such as the sweet-skinned salmon, osmanthus fish, rosy fish, and peach blossom fish.

Of course.

Now, those rosy barbel fish and sweet-scented osmanthus fish that Chen Ling had caught before the New Year have been eaten one after another.

The seed fish are kept inside the cave.

Outside, in the small canal of the farm, there were only red eels and some cold-resistant small fish and shrimps.

It is usually used for children to play and have fun.

"Fugui knows how to raise children. He can raise anything well."

Liang Yuemin walked over and said, "But I'm curious, in such cold weather, with snow and ice, won't these fish freeze to death?

Or do you have your own secret to becoming rich and powerful?"

"What's the secret to this?"

Chen Ling shook his head and smiled, "In winter, the water under the ice is actually not as cold as you think. It's basically not as cold as you think it is.

These fish are just like the fish in the wild. They just need to find a low place to hide, such as a cave, a crack in a rock, under a rock, or in dead grass...

It’s easy to overwinter.”

Liang Yuemin lacks life experience and doesn't understand these things.

Chen Ling finished speaking, but he still hadn't figured it out: "If that's the case, then why does the big fish tank in the middle hall of your wooden building in the backyard need to be next to the fire wall and the kang to keep warm?"

"That's for sure, because there are tropical fish and shrimp, as well as tropical turtles in there. As long as the temperature drops below ten degrees, they will dare to die on the spot in front of you."

Chen Ling laughed.

This change in climate and temperature is real, and even spiritual energy and spiritual water cannot save it.

In other words: even if all the water in the fish tank is replaced with spiritual water from the cave, the fish, shrimps and turtles inside will still not be able to withstand the cold when the temperature drops suddenly.

Unless they are like the big turtles like Garlic, which have been raised in the cave for a long time and have completed genetic mutation and evolution, they can withstand the severe cold.

The ornamental fish raised with diluted spiritual water from the outside world are just for fun, there is no need to do that.

"Oh, so that's the case. As expected, I am still ignorant."

Liang Yuemin smiled bitterly: "No wonder we from the city think it's so easy for you to raise things, Fugui, and think we can do it too. But here in your countryside, no one says such things. It turns out that you all know the ins and outs."

The mountain cat was amused. "Yes, there are some in the countryside too. Some people want to learn from Fugui to raise dogs. Isn't that Yangtougou? In the end, they attracted a group of wolves, and they had to call Fugui to deal with it."

"Hahaha, there are also several places in the village who have followed Fugui's example and run this farm. By the way, aren't the Wang brothers in the village one of them? However, the people outside are not as smart as the Wang brothers.

After all, the Wang brothers are close to wealth and can benefit from it.

The others were so far away, and I didn’t know what to do, so they were just messing around.”

Zhao Dahai laughed directly.

"Oh, by the way, have you heard about Mr. Chen Xiaoer? He is also coming back to do these things."

Liang Yuemin suddenly remembered something: "Originally, I heard that his wife contracted a mountain in Beifen to plant trees and raise chickens. Later, after she moved to our place, she wanted to do it here."

"Yes, but what the second brother did was because he was frustrated by the Spring Festival Gala. It's different from my farm model."

Chen Ling shook his head. "I have already suggested to him that the mountain land here is not as valuable as the land in Beiwan. After he finishes buying land here, he can use the remaining money to buy a courtyard house or a shop in Beiwan."

Several people were talking while sweeping the snow.

The canals for raising fish, the pavilions and corridors for raising birds and pigeons were all cleaned.

Afterwards, the pigeon nest was re-padded with new, clean and warm wheat straw.

These pigeons should actually be given a pigeon shed in the winter, as it would be warmer.

Chen Ling had planned to build one in the village yard before, something simple that could block the wind and snow.

But the climate changes this winter were beyond our expectations.

I thought it was okay before, so I didn’t do anything.

I didn't expect it to snow so suddenly, so I didn't have time to deal with it.

Fortunately, these pigeons are domesticated from wild pigeons, so they are not that delicate.

Chen Ling could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

……

While sweeping the snow and chatting, Liang Yuemin's phone rang.

After the call was connected, it turned out to be looking for Chen Ling.

"It's about the crew of 'Return of Glory'. I know you are the backbone of our team, so I want to have a brief meeting with you."

Liang Yuemin covered the phone and laughed, "I guess they think you've performed before, and they're afraid that when the performance officially starts, you'll be tired, awkward, or disobey instructions, and they'll be embarrassed to say anything to you then.

Meeting you in advance now should be to let you give the role a try. If you find it difficult, it means you will give up.

Or reduce the role.

After all, this time we are here on a political mission.”

"Oh! I see!"

Chen Ling was amused when he heard this: "They think I'm a big boss. It's also your fault, Brother Yuemin, for naming the brand after my farm. This is too misleading."

"Well, I just want you to experience the feeling of being respected. Then no one will dare to look down on you. You can save a lot of trouble and be more motivated."

Liang Yuemin patted Chen Ling on the shoulder and handed him the phone: "Why don't you say something."

"No, I won't say it anymore. People have misunderstood me, so let's talk about it in person. Just agree to it for me."

Chen Ling shook his head, feeling a little helpless, and muttered to himself, "Before, they promised to open a branch line for me to act freely. Now they are putting pressure on me again? Suddenly they changed their minds. I wanted my eldest brother-in-law to go with me, and take the whole family for a trip. I don't know if it will work now?"

Actors back then didn’t make as much money as they do in later generations.

He was mistaken for a financial sponsor, and since he was young, people probably thought he was just there to cause trouble on the crew.

I think acting in plays and TV dramas is fun, so I go there for fun.

Even though he has experience in writing articles, this kind of serious drama with a main theme is not something that ordinary people can touch.

A writer writing articles and an actor acting, or a screenwriter writing a script, are not the same thing. The content is very different.

That is because the braised beef noodles from Fugui Farm have brought glory to the country in the past year, otherwise Chen Ling would not be so bold.

I even called to ask. (End of this chapter)
