The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 97 Running out of food

In today's world, everyone in the country is actually confused.

Conservatives feel that a constitutional monarchy is enough and there is no need to fight and kill.

The red-top businessmen felt that they must save the country economically.

The revolutionary party vowed to overthrow the Qing government.

The old Buddha in the capital said: I would rather give it to a friendly country than to a domestic slave. I would like to use China’s material resources to gain the favor of the country.

Of course, forget about the two guys in the end.

(No one has any objections to cursing, right?)

Even if my head was boiled by water, I wouldn't be able to say that.

If Zhao Chuanxin doesn't get involved in these things, he can't convince anyone.

All he can do now is lead a group of snot-nosed kids to turn over rocks and catch toads by the river.

The toads in Lugangling have a unique taste. In the spring, the toads go up the mountain to eat insects in the forest. In the fall, when it rains, they go down the mountain to spend the winter in the mud of shallow streams. In the spring, they come out to mate and go up the mountain...

The best season to eat toads is autumn. They eat less and their intestines are clean. After eating the insects in spring and summer, they become fat. The female toads still have toad oil and unfertilized eggs in their stomachs.

I caught a female leopard!

A female leopard is a female toad.

I caught a male dog!

A male dog is a male toad.

Zhao Chuanxin was delighted to find that there were so many toads.

Unlike later generations, where every river was dammed, toads either couldn't get down the mountain or couldn't climb up the mountain. Even if they can come down and go up, there is no place for them to lay eggs in the spring, and some areas are even on the verge of extinction.

The cloth bag was quickly filled, so Zhao Chuanxin simply stopped grabbing it and took on the responsibility of carrying the bag.

He grabbed three bags, and even the toads were heavy with water, which meant he was too strong to take it seriously.

Carrying the bag ashore, Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand: Go home and let your Aunt Miao stew toads!

Jiang Mingxin also followed, shouting with her short legs and her two pigtails swaying behind her head.

Today I lit a stove outside, steamed three large pots of steamed buns, and stewed two large pots of toads. The stewing is not finished yet.

Stewing toads is very simple. Just scald them and wash them clean, then add water to the pot, add oil, salt and soy sauce.

That's it, it tastes so exciting.

We have a party for the snot babies today, and the big steamed buns and toads will suffice.

When eating a toad, eat the legs first and then the belly. After you get used to eating it, your belly goes into your mouth and all you spit out are small bones.

The female toad is the most delicious. The texture and taste of toad oil are very good, but it is not oil, and it is not as greasy as fat meat.

In the past, Zhao Chuanxin often saw people eating toad oil, the kind that has been dried in the sun, soaked in water and steamed in a pot. He didn't understand, could he swallow that kind of toad oil?

It's still delicious when stewed with rich red sauce.

There are many activities in autumn, including eating toads and picking mushrooms.

In spring, Zhao Chuanxian encountered bears when picking wild vegetables, but he did not dare to be careless when picking mushrooms in autumn.

He took all the food and tranquility with him, and even put on the armor of fortitude.

Although he has never encountered a tiger yet, Zhao Chuanxin has actually heard the roar of a tiger, and that was back in the summer.

When the tiger barks, all the beasts are in panic.

Even the dry rice trembles.

Mushrooms are also very particular, and the hazel mushrooms that Zhao Chuanxin picks the most are.

This thing is reserved for braised chicken in winter, and the hazel mushrooms that have soaked up the juice are very fragrant.

At this time, no matter whether it is wild vegetables in spring or mushrooms in autumn, you can often pick a large piece and fill the bag with little effort.

Zhao Chuanxin simply put it in his pocket technology this time, picked several bags at once and took them back to dry.

The whole yard is covered with hazel mushrooms spread on the ground.

Ming Xin, take the rice with you and keep an eye on it. Don't let the chickens from Lao Gao's family and Lao Wang's family eat up our mushrooms.

Zhao Chuanxin said to Jiang Mingxin.

Free-range chickens like to poop bugs in dried mushrooms, and it would be disgusting if they poop on them.

Jiang Mingxin said happily: Okay, great!

Children like to do things that can prove their worth.

This kind of thing depends on Gan Fan. Gan Fan occasionally helps his neighbor to herd ducks and geese. Zhao Chuanxin plans to find a place to raise some chickens, ducks and geese next year, specifically for Gan Fan to raise.

It runs as if its limbs are equipped with electric motors, and it doesn't even feel tired. The shepherding talent in his bones has awakened, and he can deal with cattle and sheep with ease.

Some people's geese are so afraid of other people's dogs that they even pinch people when they pass by, but they can be cured by eating.

Fast, explosive, and extremely flexible.

Ning Jing is now in a semi-wandering state, often staying away from home for several days.

As time went by, I no longer cared about cooking.

After all, it only has four legs and cannot catch up with one with a pair of wings.

The weather is getting colder.

The war in Liaodi was in full swing, but an interesting thing happened in the capital.

Lafayette celebrated his 70th birthday on the tenth day of October, and a movie was shown in the palace. The British Ambassador to China donated a projector and several sets of film. The people in the palace thought it was strange, how could people enter the painting?

Before the strange moment had passed, the generator over there broke down and exploded.

Lafayette was furious.

From then on, the minister was not allowed to watch movies anymore, saying it was an ominous sign.

Who cares about the life and death of the people in Liao? In a place where singing and dancing are peaceful, there will definitely be no such unlucky things to disturb everyone's interest.

Lugang Town has never stopped accepting refugees from Liaoning.

Because Zhao Chuanxin used the pseudonym of Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand to make trouble in Liaodi, the name of Lugang Town spread throughout Liaodi.

The desperate people suddenly had a goal.

But there was a problem, because the number of people increased rapidly and they ran out of food.

Sir, all the food in the grain store has been sold out. We are really out of food. We contacted the county government and the magistrate said that there was nothing he could do and asked us to raise funds on our own.

Li Guangzong now wears a pair of myopia glasses, wears Chinese and Japanese suits and leather shoes, and has meticulous hair. I hold my notebook every day, and there is almost no idle time.

Zhao Chuanxin stopped what he was doing and asked, There are no more in the city?

It's gone! We are almost out of the new grain in the fields now. Some people don't sell it even if they give money. They have to keep it for themselves.

Zhao Chuanxin pinched the bridge of his nose and felt a little headache.

Although most things can be solved with words, the problem of food cannot be solved.

“You know who has the power to fix this right now?”

Li Guangzong shook his head: At least no one on our side can solve it. But I heard that Niu Zihou is the richest man, so he should have a solution.

Huh? Zhao Chuanxin's eyes lit up: Yeah, why did you forget that old boy? He owes me a favor.

At this time, the outside world is covered in silver, and this world has lost its color again under the cycle of reincarnation.

Zhao Chuanxin took Gao Li, Er Feizi and more than ten people with him and walked on the road.

This winter my regular clothes have changed again.

Last winter everyone wore coats and tattered jackets, but this year the core members all wore long down jackets.

The one thing that the insurance team can't stand the most loneliness is Double Happiness.

After leaving Lugang Town, I jumped up and down like a bird out of its cage.

Ha, how about we finish raising food and go to Liaodi to fight a dozen Japanese and Russian invaders.

Gao Li has a keen sense of war. He said: To go there now is to die. The Japanese are now using their bodies to block the holes of the bullets, and the eyes are red. They dare to charge tens of thousands of people to death, can we people stop them? ?”

Just as he was talking, suddenly a shot was fired in the distance.

Everyone was shocked.

It was really a peaceful journey, the nearby gangsters had been beaten away by the insurance team, and I didn't expect to hear gunshots.

The sound of the gunshot was like opening a floodgate, and the sound of gunshots followed like exploding beans.

Zhao Chuanxin was used to hearing the sound of guns and artillery fighting on the battlefield. He knew that he was still far away from his own side, so he waved his hand: Don't panic, there is someone fighting.
