Chapter 861 People Are Always Treasures
At noon, Xiao Yi found a pot from among the ruins. Fortunately, the pot was still good.
A large iron pot, in a cellar of an old tea farmer, contains bacon, vegetables and some grains.
So at noon, Xiao Yi used his culinary skills to cook a meal for Han Bing, a very old tea farmer, with blanched bacon and vegetables, and cooked rice porridge.
I am used to life in a big city, which is very new to Han Bing. The rice is not like the one bought in the supermarket, it is the kind of rice that is only husked.
After it was cooked in the pot, the color was a bit cloudy, but it tasted very delicious, with a strong rice aroma, and Han Bing couldn't help but drink three bowls.
"I really didn't expect that you are also the top cook, but I have always been puzzled, that is, you don't have any seasoning in your hand, why does the soup you make taste so delicious?"
Han Bing held the bowl and said, this pot of bacon and vegetable soup is simply too delicious, even the top cook at home didn't make such delicious soup. ,
Zhao San looked at the pot of soup in front of him, he knew something in his heart, so he said at this time.
"I'm afraid that young man Xiao Yi used some grass, right?"
Xiao Yi nodded. If there is no seasoning in the cooking, it will indeed have no taste at all.
But in this kind of place, no matter where the seasoning comes from, even if you want to buy it, no one will sell it to you. There is no canteen here.
Xiao Yi picked up some grass leaves from the side and placed them in front of Han Bing. Han Bing picked them up and looked at them.
"Take a look at the flowers on it."
Xiao Yi said, this kind of grass has small light yellow flowers on it, and some calyxes like rice grains on the bottom. After some flowers wither, they will produce this kind of thing.
Without hesitation, Han Bing picked it up and tasted it lightly in his mouth. When he was in the military region, he also conducted field survival training, often catching earthworms and grasshoppers as rations.
This is just a kind of grass, Han Bing thought it was nothing, and after chewing it a few times in his mouth, the taste spread in his mouth, and Han Bing had to stick out his tongue.
"Why is it so numb?"
"The hemp is right. When this grass grows to flowering, the flower part has a tingling smell, which can be used as a substitute for cooking seasoning."
Xiao Yi explained here, and then picked up several kinds of grass, specially for Han Bing's science popularization, so that Han Bing can learn a lot.
Han Bing was fascinated by what he heard, but he didn't expect that there were so many knowledges in just a few kinds of grass. He didn't know anything about it, but Xiao Yi said it out like a few treasures.
"So that's how it is. I wonder how you can make such a delicious soup without any seasoning."
"Do you think that sometimes training outside has to be so hard? Tell you that smart people won't treat themselves badly for a long time."
"What do you mean? In special warfare training, don't you have to light open flames to prevent yourself from exposing your target? Once we ate raw meat, and that was the first time I ate raw fish. I almost threw up after eating it."
Han Bing recalled, Xiao Yi chuckled, what is a rookie and what is an old fritters can be judged based on these.
"At the beginning, I also ate raw food. Later, I gradually realized that it is still delicious when cooked. So I researched many ways, using solar energy, using wind energy to convert into electrical energy, and using electrical energy to bake things. Anyone who can come up with We have all studied the methods."
"Ah...it turned out to be such a thing. I wish I had known you earlier, so I wouldn't have to suffer so much."
Han Bing said at this moment, and Xiao Yi went on to say that Han Bing just thought of the situation too ideally.
"Of course, this is when the task is not too serious. Sometimes when an ambush is encountered, a few people have no choice but to be chased and run around. Even if they encounter animal corpses on the road, there will be only bones left. They will also find ways to smash bones and eat bone marrow from them to satisfy their hunger."
Xiao Yi said, when it comes to fighting outside, everything is changing, and anything may happen, so some things cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences.
"I'm still planning. If there is a chance, I will definitely fight for it next time. It seems impossible. Let alone such strict conditions, if my dad knows, he will let me come back directly from the military area. .”
Han Bing once also thought about going to the special team, but one thing before him was the strict selection requirements of the special team, and Han Bing had not yet met the standard.
Even if it can meet the standard, Han Batian will never let his daughter join the special team, and she will often encounter danger when fighting outside. Han Batian is just such a precious daughter.
"Okay, let's not talk to you about this, wait until we go down and find a few workers from the local area, prepare materials and tools, it doesn't matter if the old house is demolished, then let's build a row of new houses on the side of the tea garden.
Xiao Yi said, got up and walked to the car, opened the trunk, and took out a black plastic bag from it. After the black plastic bag was opened, there was a total of 300,000 cash in it.
"Buy materials and hire workers. Use the money first. If it's not enough, I'll get it later."
The money was prepared by Xiao Yi yesterday. He originally wanted to build a house over the tea house, but he was worried that the old tea farmer would not be able to leave this old house.
Now, Song Ming is doing Xiao Yi a favor indirectly. If the house is demolished, it means that he has no way out and can only rebuild the house.
"Enough is enough, this money is enough."
The old tea farmer quickly said that at most 200,000 yuan would be enough to repair the house, but here the old tea farmer didn't know that Xiao Yi had a bigger plan in his heart.
"As for the money for contracting the tea garden, it's all from my Han family, and I'll take the money later."
Han Bing had agreed with Xiao Yi earlier that she would just leave it to her to contract the tea garden. He was free and wanted to try his hand at making money.
"Miss Han, it's not necessary. You can take good care of my granddaughter for me, which is better than anything else. The Han family always pays attention to credibility, and my old man doesn't worry about anything."
Zhao San didn't know what to say to be grateful at the moment. The tea garden was handed over to Xiao Yi, and he was very relieved. As long as it was his little granddaughter, it would be better than anything else if someone could take care of it.
"But old man, I'm just a layman about this kind of tea. I will inevitably trouble you when the time comes. If there is anything I don't understand, I will ask you to advise me."
Xiao Yi said that he knew an old tea farmer who had been growing tea for more than forty years. Compared to the tea garden, this old man was the most important treasure.
