Chapter 1155: Meat Dishes
Mr. Chu remained silent, looking around the farm. He saw that crops were planted wherever there was soil, fruit trees were planted wherever there were mountains, and fish ponds were dug in places with poor soil. In the harvested rice fields, there were dots of new seedlings that had not been frozen to death.
He pointed at the wheat and asked, "Are these winter wheat?"
Qian Duo said, "Yes, this farm is not big. Our boss asked me to plant all the seeds from the north on the farm to see if they can survive in the south. If they can survive and grow well, they can be promoted in the south after two years of planting. Then the people will have a better life."
All in all, this winter wheat has been planted twice. As long as there is still a good harvest of this wheat this year, winter wheat can be safely launched in these places in the south next year.
After hearing the last sentence, several people looked at Zhou Guo. They didn't expect that her purpose was like this?
Is it to make everyone's life better?
The head of the Chu family said, "Young Master is really kind-hearted. He still thinks about the common people while farming."
Qian Duo couldn't help but say, "Our boss has always been like this. You haven't been to the North. If you have the chance to go and see it, you will know. Now every household in the North has enough food to eat. They eat dry food and drink watery food all year round, and sell the remaining food. I have never heard of anyone starving to death in winter in any place."
Wu Jiang is the most qualified person to speak out. "A few years ago, when winter came, almost every household would hang white banners on their doors. In recent years, although it is not completely gone, we rarely hear of people dying of starvation."
Head Chu raised his eyebrows and asked, "How did you know? Did you go to the government office to check?"
The North is so big!
Zhou Guo said: "We have quite a few people in the North, and a lot of businesses. Even in winter, we are not idle. The more we move around, the more we see.
There is no comparison between the early years and now. I would also check the data reported by the government every year. During the busy farming season in early spring, we would go to the villages and check on the households. We would know if there were any missing people. "
It is precisely because of the achievements in recent years that she thought of promoting grain varieties to the south.
The south is not as cold as the north, and there is more food, so the winter is not as hard to endure as in the north, and the chances of surviving the winter will be greater.
Wu Jiang said: "In the winter in the north, we will be even busier."
Busy selling mountain products and grain.
After hearing this, Wu Lazi and a few others couldn't help but admire Zhou Guo even more. They didn't expect that a young man like her could accomplish such a big thing.
Especially Wu Lazi, her eyes were full of admiration when she looked at Zhou Guo, even though she was so old, she could be her mother.
We are both women, so how come Zhou Guo is so powerful? ?
Xiong Laosan only heard Wu Jiang talking about being busy in winter, and sighed: "It's good to be busy. Being busy means you have something to do, and if you have something to do, you can make money. If you make money, you can live a good life."
They have been idle these years, and have become moldy and anxious due to idleness. Life without money is very difficult. They are worried about their brothers, and that the whole village will starve to death if they have nothing to eat.
Mr. Chu felt more and more relaxed. Various signs showed that the decision he made was not wrong. Zhou Guo had great love in her heart. Most importantly, she was not just dreaming, but taking action step by step, and the results were good.
He was lucky to be able to bring his brothers from the village out.
Zhou Guo took them for a while and said, "Okay, if you haven't walked around enough, get up and walk around tomorrow morning and let Qian Duo take you. It's getting late now, let's go eat."
The farm is very lively today, with so many people here, and there are dozens of people cooking.
Fortunately, in the past year, there have been quite a few people coming to the village every time, and the lowest number is more than a thousand. They are used to cooking and can handle it.
And one or two dishes are not too much, as long as the portion is enough.
Therefore, the other brothers got their meals quickly.
There were only two dishes and a soup, one was chicken stewed with radish, one was stir-fried meat with cabbage, and the other was radish and bone soup with green chopped green onions floating on top.
In the stewed chicken with radish, there is less radish and more chicken in big chunks. In the stir-fried meat with cabbage, the meat is as thick as a palm and plump. You can tell it is fat. It is so satisfying to take a bite!
This is much better than the food in the village!
At this time in the village, they only ate radishes and cabbages. Life was considered good with these two foods. Most of the time, they could only survive on pickles. They could still be full by eating an egg in a big pot of soup with some corn.
But here, the rice and white flour buns are big and big.
Everyone in the group began to salivate. Fine rice, noodles, and big pieces of meat were things they could only afford to eat when they were very successful or during the Chinese New Year. How could they ever get these at other times?
The person serving the rice didn't shake his hands. He put in half meat and half vegetables with one spoon, a full spoon.
Zhou Guo, Wu Lazi and others watched from the side.
Wu Lazi was stunned, looking at the long and densely packed queue, and asked, "How many chickens do you need for a meal like this?"
The chickens on the mountain are kept for laying eggs.
Even though she was the boss, she only had half a chicken during festivals and would not eat more than that. In her opinion, the big chunks of meat in her brothers' bowls could be cut into several more pieces. If they were cut into several pieces, wouldn't that be too much?
Xiong Lao San rolled up his sleeves and said, "Why are you still standing there? Let's go eat. If we don't go, the food will be eaten up by these guys. What will they have left for us?"
Mr. Chu coughed and wanted to go too.
Zhou Guo said: "No hurry, we won't squeeze with them, let's go in and eat."
The meal is ready.
It was not prepared by Chef Zhang and his apprentice. They were exhausted from the long journey these days and fell asleep after dinner. They could hardly keep their eyes open, so they had no energy to cook.
A few people walked in and saw the table of food in the hall and swallowed subconsciously.
Chicken, duck, fish, sea cucumber, shark fin, prawns, and a large basket of crabs in the middle. The table was full of delicacies.
Wu Lazi had never seen so many delicious foods. She was originally born in a poor family. After she went up the mountain and took over as the head of the family, she never lived a luxurious life. Whenever she had some money, she would buy things for the mountain or keep it for herself.
How can you bear to eat like this?
Although Xiong Laosan and Chu Dangjia had eaten good banquets and visited good restaurants, they had never ordered so many delicious dishes at once.
Not to mention anything else, they can't even afford to eat what's in the sea.
Xiong Laosan only knew chicken, duck, fish, and crabs, and didn't know anything from the sea. His eyes lit up as he pointed at the crab and said, "You still have this at this time of year? Isn't this something that is only sold in autumn?"
It's not cheap, a basket costs about eighty or ninety taels or even more than two taels. He hasn't eaten it many times, but he really misses the taste.
