Communicate with furry animals without any barriers, and take the farm to the next level

Chapter 77 Dried Fish
It is said that there is a semi-mechanical food processing factory in the free market recently, and the factory director's domestic elf Flame Lava has exhausted its energy and fallen into a deep sleep.

The factory lost energy and went bankrupt, and was preparing to sell the semi-mechanized equipment in the factory. Josh had some ideas in his mind after hearing this.

As for why they were talking about this, it was because these gluttons often stole bread crumbs from the factory and were burned by lava several times.

They even went to the top of the factory to celebrate the bankruptcies, but they became sad after the celebration because they had no place to steal the bread crumbs.

I thought they had reformed, but it turned out to be because they had no place to steal food. These guys are really amazing.

As for the equipment, I don’t know if there is any that can be used on the farm. I’ll try my luck tomorrow.

It’s the same as usual. We don’t want the fish head, tail, skin or internal organs. The amount was so large before that even the brown-headed vultures couldn’t finish it, so the rest was left to the little birds. Whoever likes it can eat it.

Now that we have the Moon Bear, we don’t care how many are left. We will let it eat them all.

Seeing the Moon Bear and the little bear doing the same thing, cracking the fish head like melon seeds, Qiao Xi felt a little jealous. They were indeed their biological children.

The more he did it, the more comfortable he became. His cooperation with the brown-headed vulture and the other birds became increasingly tacit. In addition, the amount of fish balls he made today was smaller than usual, so Qiao Xi cooked the fish balls early, solved his brunch problem, and also gave the birds an early start.

This was the first time the Star and Moon Bears had seen Josh making fish balls since they came to the farm. Before the pot was even opened, two big silly bears, one big and one small, squatted beside the pot, waiting for the meal to be served.

Qiao Xi gave each of them a bowl of food according to their size. It was not that she didn't want to make sure they were full, but they simply didn't know what fullness was. They ate whatever was given to them, and she really couldn't provide enough for them.

Just eat two to taste.

Holding the bowl given by Qiao Xi, Big Star sat outside the house with the little bear cub. He used the tips of his fingernails as sticks to poke the treats one by one and ate them. He was reluctant to put them down.

It was so delicious that Little Star finished all the fish balls in his small bowl in just a few bites and set his eyes on the remaining fish balls in his mother's big bowl.

The little bear took advantage of his mother's power and tried to take some meatballs from her bowl. However, the annoyed mother slapped him into a ball and the bear rolled out.

The two of them were quarreling, but Josh ignored them.

She was going to get some fish balls for the golden macaques, which were playing in the orchard.

"Woo woo~" The golden macaques gestured and told Qiao Xi that he could let them do it and they could also pinch it.

He also found some bubble apples and rubbed them vigorously on his hands to create a lot of foam, then washed his paws clean for Josh to see.

The little monkey next to him jumped and fetched a circle of thin grass leaves, wrapped them around his hands, and the hair on his arms was wrapped back by the sticky leaves.

That was good. Josh's last bit of worry was gone. Isn't this an all-rounder? Woohoo, that's great.

Qiao Xi was so excited at the thought of selling fish balls wholesale from the farm in the future. He patted his chest and promised the golden macaques that when conditions get better in the future, he will give you the vacation you deserve and the benefits you deserve. As long as you help me with your heart, I, Qiao Xi, will not treat you unfairly.

The passionate words filled the entire orchard with activity, but in the end, a pine cone thrown by a brown-headed vulture in the sky fell on Josh's head, and the fantasy came to an end.

Finally, he remembered what he was doing. As expected, the golden macaques loved the fish balls. Qiao Xi told them to work together next time and make more fish balls so that everyone on the farm could share. The golden macaques were so excited that they rarely showed their monkey nature, jumping up and down and squawking. But after all, they were golden macaques, so they only squawked a few times and then stopped. They were still a group of little monkeys who cared about their image.

Because the fish balls this time were all made of ordinary fish meat, Qiao Xi promised them that next time he would make them more delicious fish balls made with fish paste, which would be simply amazing and fragrant.

After such a good description, the golden macaques who had just eaten the fish balls started to drool. They insisted on following Qiao Xi to watch her make dried fish. Even when Qiao Xi explained that she was not making fish balls, they would not listen and just wanted to watch.

However, Qiao Xi felt that they probably wanted to follow along and try something fresh. After all, when she mentioned dried fish just now, he clearly saw several golden macaques swallowing their saliva.

"Okay, then you guys come with me, and don't touch anything until your hands are clean."

The golden macaques nodded in unison.

Well, Josh brought them to the big tub of pickled fish. She had just sliced ​​the processed fish in half and marinated it with honey and marinade before leaving. It should be almost done now.

Josh went to preheat the bread oven, which had two levels and could bake dozens of fish at a time.

Today, Josh did not take out the fish fillets to dry. He simply put them directly into the bread oven and used the residual fire to slowly dry the moisture in the fish fillets. He will sell them tomorrow. After another day of display, the crispness will be reduced, the toughness will be enhanced, and the taste will be better.

The speed was much faster than last time. Josh was afraid that it would be burnt, so he opened the lid every once in a while to check on the baking progress.

In less than half an hour, Josh discovered that the fish fillets were basically dried. He took a piece of the finished fish and gave it to the brown-headed vulture for tasting. After all, it was the bird that had eaten the most dried fish, so what it said was more valuable for reference.

"Quack!" It's salty, crispy and lightly sweet, delicious, but the last time it was a little tough, which tasted better.

After eating, the brown-headed vulture carefully recalled the taste of the last time he ate it and gave a detailed opinion.

Okay, Josh nodded. This is just as she planned. After leaving it overnight, the dried fish will become softer, more elastic and tougher.

Due to the large quantity produced this time and the fast baking speed, the large basin that Josh had just cleaned could no longer be used to hold the baked dried fish fillets.

She simply found a clean large net bag, arranged the roasted fish fillets in order, and put them on the table to wait for them to cool down. After cooling, the crispness of the fish fillets would decrease, and then she would hang the fish fillets up to prevent the fish meat from being broken into pieces. It could also absorb moisture in the air and make the fish fillets soft again.

While baking, I fed the little guys at the same time, and they actually got some delicious food and kept eating excitedly.

A few small golden macaques with few teeth took a piece of dried fish and gnawed it with great effort. So far, they have only smeared their saliva on the fish, which has no effect at all. However, they seem to be very satisfied with the meal.

A proper amount was also distributed, and the rest was packed and sold. They were baked in one kiln after another, and even if they finished quickly, it would be late.

After sending the reluctant golden macaques back, Qiao Xi started to make her dinner: fish balls and fish fillet porridge, which was simple, convenient and quick. She also decorated it with some celery leaves, which made it look delicious.

I always feel sleepy when typing at night recently. It’s really strange.
