Chapter 87 Things are vaguely valuable
Unlike Zhou Qiuyu who stared at the pig's head, Yi Chichi was greedy.

She was very willing to eat as she had no shortage of money, and she had to subsidize her great-aunt and the others.

The more meat, the better.

However, today's pigs are not like the pigs of later generations that can easily weigh two to three hundred pounds.

The pigs, which had no feed and were raised solely on green crops such as wheat bran, pumpkins, and pigweed, only weighed more than 100 kilograms before they died.

Therefore, what the villagers receive is limited.

Fortunately, the wild boar meat harvested during the last autumn hunting was not too small, so the villagers who were targeted by Yi Chichi readily agreed when they learned that she wanted to buy some meat.

Aunt Ma gave her two kilograms of pork belly.
0.85 per pound. If you go to a state-owned meat stall to buy pork, the price is between 0.42-0.78 yuan.

But tickets are required.

Buying from villagers does not require a ticket, so it is normal for prices to rise.

Yi Chichi didn't bargain. After handing over the money and delivering the goods, she stuffed the pork belly into the basket and went straight to Aunt Niu.

"Auntie, what kind of meat did you get?"

Aunt Niu looked unhappy and complained as if she had found a trash can.

"Forget it, I don't have any meat when it's my turn. Give me a few pounds of ribs and a piece of plum meat."

Yi Chichi's eyes lit up, "Auntie, you don't like eating ribs?"

"Who likes to chew bones? I just want to eat meat."

It has to be the kind of plump meat that tastes crunchy and oily, so that it is delicious.

Ribs……

"Well, I can only say that it is better than nothing."

Yi Chichi's words sounded a bit ordinary. She looked straight at the ribs in Aunt Niu's basin and said quietly, "Auntie, I don't even share the bones and dregs."

As she said that, she raised her eyes and looked at Aunt Niu, "How about you share some with me, Auntie?"

Aunt Niu was startled by her glowing green eyes, and felt like the hair all over her body was exploding.

This kid was so greedy for meat that his eyes turned green.

"Are you stupid? If there are any bones to chew on, go find your Aunt Yang. Her meat is good. It is fat meat three fingers wide. One bite will fill your mouth with oil. That kind of meat tastes exciting."

Before she finished speaking, she lowered her voice and said, "When I go to talk to your Aunt Yang, the price will be higher. She will definitely be willing to give you two pounds."

Yi Chichi looked at Aunt Yang. The person who had shared the meat with him was talking about something. The smile on his face was as bright as the sun.

You can hear her hearty laughter even from a not too close distance.

"I'll go find Aunt Yang later."

Seeing that Aunt Niu was about to leave, Yi Chichi pointed to the basin in her hand and said, "Auntie, give me two pounds of bones."

"???Do you really want bones?"

"want."

"...Okay, I'll give you two kilograms, or you can take them all."

It makes me sad to see it, so this silly kid likes to chew bones.

"Really?"

Yi Chichi's eyes brightened astonishingly when he heard that they had all been taken away.

The corner of Aunt Niu's mouth twitched, this heartless girl took it seriously.

"Just kidding, I'll give you two pounds, no more."

Yi was reluctant to be greedy and nodded in haste to say yes.

Spare ribs are not very popular in this era, not even as popular as pork belly.

The price is also cheaper than pork belly.

Aunt Niu gave her 0.54 per pound, a total of 1.62 for three pounds. Aunt Niu added a zero and paid 1.6.

After handing over the money in one hand and the ribs in the other, Aunt Niu went home happily with the money, but Yi Chichi, after stuffing the ribs into the basket, glanced around and went straight to Uncle Liu.

She saw that this one had been given a front leg with more bones and less meat, and he was looking unhappy.

Hope to win.

Wen Shi, who was a little distracted on her side, panicked when they saw her running towards Fourth Uncle Liu.

"Lao Wen, act quickly. If you don't act, Yi Zhiqing will sweep the village away like the Japanese invaders."

They won't be able to buy anything then.

He Yunsong hurriedly pulled the person away. When he heard about it, he used his strength to stand up and buy meat.

Zhou Qiuyu, who was still calculating how much a pound of pig head cost and whether she could buy the whole pig head with the money in her hand, panicked when she saw everyone running away and went straight to the captain and the others who were dividing the meat.

"Uncle, can you sell me the pig head?"

There wasn't much meat left on the chopping board, and the clean big pig's head was extremely conspicuous and hideous on the chopping board. Pig heads are difficult to handle, with more bones and less meat. They are even less popular than pig trotters.

Especially when the pigs are in season, they all want to replace all the pig heads with meat.

In previous years, when the team killed a pig, the pig's head was basically divided among a few good people.

This year, I am not willing to ask for a pig's head, because my temporary appetite cannot resist the complaints from my wife and children.

Just when I was wondering whether the pig's head would have to be solved by drawing lots, Zhou Qiuyu's words fell like nectar after a long encounter, and all the irritability in my body was washed away.

"You want a pig's head?"

The captain looked at her with a smile, his eyes loving as if looking at his own child.

"How much does a pig's head cost?"

"???"

This is a good question. The captain and the others were silent.

"Lao Xu, how much does a whole pig's head cost?"

The branch secretary asked after poking Xu Changsheng, the pig butcher.

"I do not know."

Comrade Xu shook his head, "I only know how much a pound of dismantled pig head meat costs."

"6 cents, no votes."

When Wen Shi answered, Yi Chichi, who had bought the meat and came to join in the fun, said, "It's more expensive than pork belly."

"Things are rare and valuable!"

Wen Shi’s words were concise and to the point, “It’s just one pig, so the price will naturally be higher.”

Even though the pig head has a lot of bones, it’s true love that tastes good.

The captain yelled and asked Zhou Qiuyu, "Zhou Zhiqing, six cents per pound, do you want it?"

Zhou Qiuyu thought about it for a long time, and then said a little embarrassedly, "Uncle, if it's six cents, can I take half of it?"

She thought a pig's head would only cost three yuan if it was stretched to death, so she thought about buying the whole thing.

As a result, the price was half the difference, so buying the whole thing became a luxury.

You can’t spend all your money, you have to save some for emergencies.

"Okay."

Half a pair of them are all right against the captain.

The pig's head was divided into two parts. Zhou Qiuyu wanted to leave half of it, but the remaining half was rounded when he was smelled.

Seeing that no one was moving under the chopping board, Yi made up his mind to go into the water.

As a result, it was not sold, and the butcher, Lao Xu, owned the water.

This good thing is his reward.

Helpless, Yi Chichi had no choice but to return home.

But her harvest today was not bad. She got two kilograms here and two kilograms there, and she also scraped together nearly ten kilograms of meat.

And a piece of pork liver.

In the evening, she cut half of the pig liver and asked Wu Yongfei to make pig liver soup. She orally taught Wu Yongfei how to use a spoon. The pig liver soup she made was fragrant, tender and smooth, and Wang Nan and the others looked satisfied after drinking it.

I kept saying how delicious it was.

Yi Chichi wondered, "Didn't it taste good before?"

“It’s fishy, it tastes weird, and it doesn’t taste good.”

"How?"

Several people talked about how to make it. After listening to it, Yi Chichi suddenly realized that it was no wonder it tasted bad and tasted bad.

The handling method is wrong, the method is wrong, and the heat is not controlled well.

Of course it cannot be delicious.

“There are actually many ways to make pork liver.”

Wu Yongfei became interested, "What other methods can be done?"

"Stir-fried liver tips, braised dried liver, stir-fried pork liver, sour soup pork liver, etc."

"Taught me!"

"I'll teach you next time there's pork liver."
