It starts with the production team driving the big truck

Chapter 241: Don’t you think it’s cruel to kill like kind?
"Yes, I haven't been to their place for several years."

After Lao Cao learned that the things Sun Jianping got out of the saline-alkali land, whether it was sodium nitrate that exploded when touched, or baking soda, or the old brine he finally extracted, he felt very good! I even had an extra bowl of breakfast!

It made him feel bad!

I didn’t have much food to begin with, but I still dared to eat with open belly...

Lao Cao immediately decided to assign those banlazi and girls who were weak in physical strength, young and unable to do heavy work to Sun Jianping to help him cook alkaline noodles!
Unfortunately, Qian Huijun and Zhou Wei were directly classified into this category, along with Fool Fan.

In fact, the big fool is not stupid even if he says he is stupid, but he is completely stupid even if he says he is not stupid. In short...

"Brother Fan, you are responsible for carrying water from the pit, Qian Huijun, you are responsible for lighting the fire..."

Several people formed a production team and divided their work. Fool Fan was indeed a fool. Whether he was working or resting, he would only giggle and take off his clothes to catch lice, which made Zhou Wei hide away in disgust.

"This man is quite pitiful..." Miss Qian looked at the fool with eyes full of sympathy.

"The eldest lady is here to express her old worries!" Sun Jianping sat down next to her and put on his gloves. Aunt Cai gave them to him when he went to chop wood in the mountains last time, and he has not used them up yet.

He pulled the water pot and pulled off all the crystals stuck to the cotton thread, which made Qian Huijun want to laugh.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I, Xiaoyou, am also a big fool!"

Without waiting for Sun Jianping to retaliate, she ran to the stove pit with a giggle and made a face at him.

"Jianping, what did you soak in that water pot?"

After laughing, she asked curiously.

"It's Qian Huijun's hoof!" Sun Jianping retorted, and the eldest lady was so angry that she grabbed a piece of sawdust and threw it over.

What was soaked in the rice dumpling was nothing else. It was the pig's trotters that had been "copied" during the construction of the canal a few days ago. Adding a little bit of sodium nitrate, he planned to try to see if he could make Zhenjiang meat.

After all, he promised the two children to prepare delicious food for them, and besides, he was not short of materials.

However, sodium nitrate will be converted into nitrite in the meat, which is harmful to the body and should not be used in excess.

"Where did you get the pig's trotters?"

Qian Huijun took a curious look, came to his side, and asked in a low voice.

"I went to the brigade yesterday and someone gave it to me." Sun Jianping lied casually, and Qian Huijun frowned slightly, "If you accept other people's things, you have to do things for them..."

"Isn't that right? He asked me to be a housekeeper for his family. He forced me to work before dawn and couldn't come back until dark. The children he gave birth to had to bear his family name and they were not even allowed to eat at the table..."

puff!
Miss Qian was so amused that she burst into laughter, "You, you, you, I'm telling you serious things, but you come to tease me!"

"Idiot, life is already very tiring. If you don't seek happiness for yourself, you will die of suffocation!" Sun Jianping smiled and blocked her little fist, "Oh, the deadly fragrant pig's trotters!"

"Hate!"

Qian Huijun was also infected by his humor and optimism. She sat next to him and stared eagerly at the four big pig trotters soaked in sodium nitrate solution, "Don't forget to share one with me then!"

"That's for sure!"

Sun Jianping smiled, "It's just...it's cruel to kill the same kind of people, don't you think?"

"You are a pig, you are the pig!" Qian Huijun's face turned red with anger!

annoying!

"If you two don't work and flirt, why don't you imitate Wang Jingang's Baomi Di!" Zhou Wei saw them laughing and joking, so she teased, which made Qian Huijun's face turn red with shame, and she hurriedly got up to light the fire.

This girl is quite thin-skinned!
Sun Jianping coughed and said, "Didn't I say that Wang Jingang wanted to change Xu Erya's household registration? Has the whole process been completed?"

"You still don't know Wang Jingang? You're talking all the time, but not a single word of truth!" Zhou Wei seemed to still be angry about the "marijuana flower" incident, and her words were extremely mean, "That's why Xu Erya gave in so stupidly. He was deceived, and if he had any brains, he would have been beaten into a pig's head!"

Sun Jianping smiled at Qian Huijun again!
Pig brain!

Qian Huijun was so angry that she rolled her eyes at him.

"I think Wang Jingang is not a fuel-efficient guy. Sooner or later he will cause some trouble." Sun Jianping asked Fan Dashou to take out the boiled alkali cubes, put them aside to cool, and waited for a while to crush them. Continue to purify. "He is causing trouble now. When I went to the team headquarters a few days ago, I heard Uncle Yu telling him that Team Leader Yang wanted to chat with him and asked him to go to the county seat. I didn't know what to talk about. of."

It’s hard to tell that Zhou Wei is quite concerned about Wang Jingang’s affairs!

"He can do whatever he likes, as long as he doesn't disgust me." Sun Jianping looked at the rice seedlings growing vigorously in the sun, and his heart was filled with longing for the autumn harvest!

Whether you can eat rice this autumn or not depends entirely on you!

During dinner, Xiao Yueyue excitedly ran to Chen Peilin's house with an enamel basin and handed it to Qian Huijun. Qian Huijun opened it and saw that it turned out to be a ruddy stewed pig's trotters!
"Sister, my brother asked me to bring it here for you to eat!"

"Good boy!" Qian Huijun took out two pieces of candy from his pocket and stuffed them into the little girl, "Go back and help me thank your brother!"

"Yeah, let's go home and eat something delicious!"

Qian Huijun stood at the door of Chen Peilin's house, watching the children jumping and running away, and felt a warm feeling in her heart.

The big fool is quite thoughtful...

"Uncle Chen, come and try Chef Sun's cooking!"

She entered the house carrying the enamel basin.

In the Cao family, Old Cao sat cross-legged on the Kang, holding a small wine cup, and had a drink with Sun Jianping!
In the middle of the table, there was a large pot of stewed pig's trotters. Li Xiuzhi brought another plate of thinly sliced ​​meat and placed it on the table. Xiao Xingwen reached out to grab it, but his mother slapped him on the back of his hand. , "No rules!"

"hey-hey!"

The little guy smiled innocently, grabbed a piece of chopsticks, and his eyes suddenly lit up!
"Brother, this meat is so delicious!"

"That's right!" Sun Jianping smiled proudly, "Uncle Cao, try this!"

Lao Cao also picked up a pair of chopsticks and nodded with satisfaction, "It does taste different from the meat we make here. It's fragrant and crispy. This is the first time in my life that I've eaten this!"

"Brothers and sisters-in-law, you guys should try it too!"

The family sat on the kang, sharing this rare delicacy and discussing how to get rid of the refined baking soda.

"In a few days, boss, take your brother to the grassland to look for Mr. Zhaobao. That old man makes friends and is a man of his word on the grassland. See if you can get him to help..."

"Then it can be determined. What is Mr. Bao's identity? Who wouldn't give him a face?" Cao Chungui gnawed on the pig's trotters and said vaguely, "I just don't know where they are grazing in Gada now. If they can't find them, it's a waste of time." …”

"Didn't they go to the winter den last winter? Most likely they will still be there in Nagada this spring." The old man also grabbed a piece of pig's trotters and gnawed on it. "In the spring, the ewes give birth to lambs, and it is difficult to move around, so you can go to the winter den to look for them. , they are designated to be there this year!”

"Yeah!" Cao Chungui grabbed a pig's trotter and handed it to Sun Jianping, "You should eat it!"

"Eating!" Sun Jianping wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth, "Uncle, are there still nomads everywhere in the grassland?"

"My ancestors have been here on the grassland like this for generations. It has been fine in the past few years. I have been going back and forth between Dongwozi and Xiawozi, saying that I want to settle down... Come to Jianping and have a drink with me!"

Lao Cao raised the wine bottle and filled it for him.

After a few days of boiling, the alkaline water in the big pit has reduced a lot. In addition, the spring wind is strong and the evaporation is high. Gradually, the water in the pit is getting less and less. You can already reach out and reach the condensed salt at the bottom of the pit. Shelled.

These salt crusts are more complex to process than alkaline water, but yields are higher.

As the salt-alkali accumulated in the pit was boiled and purified, the work of the Ermajia salt-alkali production team came to an end temporarily. At this time, the rice seedlings had grown to more than one foot tall, and new water was added again. It was time to I got fat after chasing it twice.

The urea bought from the brigade last time was finally put to use. Lao Cao led the people and put the urea into the gourd used for growing sorghum and millet. He knocked it as he walked and evenly sprinkled the precious urea in the paddy field. .

After applying urea, the rice seedlings are obviously greener and the rhizomes are growing stronger. Lao Cao’s greatest pleasure every day is squatting on the ridge of the field, happily looking at the vigorously growing seedlings, and looking forward to the harvest scene...

If the rice harvest is really good, you can eat rice every meal...

That is a life only gods can live!
"Oh oh oh!"

Sun Jianping rushed over to the carriage and took away the last cart of purified alkali noodles. The alkaline water accumulated in the pit had been exhausted, and it would have to wait for a while before refining could continue.

"How much did you get in total?" Lao Cao asked him, taking two puffs from his pipe.
