Chapter 564 563. Three Stone Stove (2)

Li Du looked at him strangely and asked, "You know me?"

Owen said as a matter of course: "How can I not know? You are a millionaire among the treasure hunters, and I also know that you have observation skills far beyond ordinary people, so I know that you will definitely gain a lot here."

Li Du smiled and said: "I hope, I will lend you a good word."

Owen said seriously: "I'm not being nice, you are the X-Men, your X ability should be used to find gems, not storage auctions."

"I'm here to look for gems now, and I hope I can live up to your trust."

The two exchanged for a while, and Owen introduced some local conditions to him, including which area produced high-quality fire opal, which area produced a large number of fire opals, and which area had been rummaged.

It may be that he really wanted to win Li Du as a client, so his warm and sincere attitude left a better and better impression on Li Du.

After bidding farewell to Owen, the pickup truck drove along the park road to his destination. He still started from the land he chose last time.

Last time he found some gems here, but he couldn't dig them out. This time he came here with strong men, so it would be easier to dig them out.

He couldn't get straight to the point and find the fire opals he'd found before, because those gems were buried under rubble and couldn't be seen with the naked eye.

But he has a way, the poor kid of the crispy noodles has been starved by him for a long time, he can show the traces of fire opal through the crispy noodles, so there will be an explanation.

Godzilla and Ou were sent by him to set up camp, while Sophie took San Xiaopao with her camera to take pictures.

Li Du put some preserved fruit and small jerky in his pocket, which are the favorite delicacies of Gancrimian.

He found a piece of fire opal, quickly dug up the stone, and stuffed two pieces of peach jerky into it.

Taking advantage of no one's attention, he stuffed candied fruit around a few pieces of opal, and only waited for the crispy noodles to come back and find them. He took the opportunity to dig out these gems.

He buried dried fruit instead of jerky in these places, because Ah Miao and Ah Ao also like to eat jerky, and their sense of smell is more sensitive than crispy noodles.

If Li Du buried the jerky, it would not be crispy noodles waiting to be dug out, but those two little guys with a super sense of smell.

Dao and Godzilla pulled up two tents, which were large windproof and waterproof tents, which looked like small houses when they were erected, and they could even cook inside.

But Li Du didn't want to look for excitement, so he chose to cook outside honestly.

After setting up the tent, Oo went on to prepare lunch.

He has a lot of experience in wild survival, because he used to hunt a lot, and made dried meat, bacon or ham to sell to subsidize his family.

Walking out with firewood and coal, Da Ao asked Li Du, "Boss, have you ever seen three stones of about the same height? About thirty centimeters or forty centimeters."

Li Du said: "Why are you looking for stones? But it's not difficult to find ones that meet this requirement. Come with me. There are some broken stones here."

The place where they are located is like a river bed, but the river bed is mostly pebbles, and here are all kinds of sharp broken stones, large and small.

The two teamed up and quickly found three stones of about the same height. Da Ao placed them on the ground and said, "I'm going to make a three-stone stove."

The three-stone stove is a very common tool for setting pots in the field. Three stones of the same height are placed in a triangle, and then the pot or pot holder is placed in the middle, and firewood is placed inside.

This kind of stove requires the height of the bottom of the pot to be about 20 centimeters from the ground. The stones they found were about 40 centimeters high, so after setting up the pot, the bottom of the pot was slightly higher than the ground.

Da Ao found some broken stones and put them on the ground, piled them up to a height of about ten centimeters, and said, "The firewood and anthracite are burned in the back, and the ashes left will heighten the terrain. At this time, just remove the stones below."

Li Du stretched out his thumb and said, "Well done, buddy, you are really ingenious."

They are planning to fight a protracted war, and they have prepared enough food, such as dried meat, canned food, vacuum-packed vegetables, and some pasta.

Da Ao is good at survival in the wild, and Li Du is good at cooking.

Godzilla drove back. There were two large buckets behind the car. He drove to the park to find a water source and filled them with clean water for their daily use.

Eat a full lunch so that you can work hard in the afternoon.

Li Du was going to make beef soup pancakes, and they had an incubator in the car with ice cubes inside. If the box was closed, the ice cubes could be kept for seven days without completely melting.

There was frozen beef inside. He took out a piece and washed it, chopped the beef quickly, chopped the beef into minced beef, and boiled water in the pot.

Godzilla asked, "Keep boiling?"

Li Du said: "No, this is used to clean the beef. You can scoop out the meat when it becomes mottled and cook it for four to five minutes. Watch the time."

"Oh, is that four minutes or five minutes?" Godzilla asked sternly.

Li Du shrugged and said, "You can do whatever you want, buddy, you can decide this kind of thing."

Godzilla nodded seriously: "Okay, that's four and a half minutes."

"As you wish."

Li Du wanted to prepare tomato sauce. He got a lot of vegetables from the vegetable fields of the Amish people, some of which were not vacuum-packed and kept for a short time, so they had to be eaten quickly.

He took out a couple of large tomatoes, washed them and chopped them into pieces, chopped the onions and rosemary, and Godzilla dumped the broth to leave the beef pieces so he could do it.

Taking off the pressure cooker and replacing it with a frying pan, he poured olive oil over it, sautéed it, sprinkled it with tomatoes, onions, and ground beef and stir-fried.

After frying, pour the rotten tomatoes and the still hard ground beef into the pressure cooker, add boiling hot water and simmer vigorously.

During the period, Li Du took out some mountain shoots, which he pickled after digging in spring. After pickling for a summer, now is the time to eat them.

Sophie came back after taking a lap, and the three little Pidiandian followed behind, smelling the smell of beef, and ran to sit in a row next to the stove.

Ah Ao poked his head at the pressure cooker, and Li Du went up to catch it and slapped it on the buttocks, scaring it and said, "Go ahead, go further, and I'll just throw you into the fire and eat you up."

The wolf cub was startled, and he was very unhappy to be slapped on the buttocks, so he ran to get into Sophie's arms, whimpering.

The three little guys were hungry, they didn't eat anything on the way, and they were still playing in the carriage, and the aroma of the beef soup made them extremely intoxicated.

Li Du was a little anxious when he saw the crispy noodles and Ah Miao sitting next to the pressure cooker.

He had prepared preserved fruit for the crispy noodles, and he needed the crispy noodles to discover it, but looking at the current situation, this brat couldn't smell the preserved fruit at all, he could only smell the aroma of beef soup!
