1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

Chen Tiezhu slept so soundly that he really wanted to stay in bed, but he was woken up by Professor Xu banging on the back door.

"Comrade Xu, what's wrong?"

After opening the back door, Chen Tiezhu, wearing a coat, rubbed his eyes.

"Tiezhu, it's incredible. Our mycelium is growing so well." Professor Xu said excitedly, and then dragged Chen Tiezhu into the mushroom house.

What can Chen Tiezhu do?

"Look, look at how well these mycelium grows." Professor Xu said excitedly.

"Even in the laboratory, we haven't covered it so well. The yield of this mushroom in the future will be incredible, but I'm a little worried that the nutrients in the culture medium will not be enough in the future."

"Professor Xu, come on." Chen Tiezhu waved his fist.

Professor Xu smiled bitterly and glanced at him, "That's not something I can do just by trying harder. Let's see how it goes. If I find that the growth is not good enough in the later stage, I will try to mix some nutrient solution."

"Yeah, Professor Xu, you can do it." Chen Tiezhu nodded seriously and yawned.

"Hey, hey, hey, comrades, please pay attention, comrades, please pay attention. When Tiezhu went up the mountain yesterday, he encountered a pack of wolves. Don't go up the mountain these days..."

At this time, the voice of Uncle Jianguo also came from the loudspeaker.

"Old Xu, do we have to study the use of corn cavities as culture medium? Let's make a little and see what happens." Chen Tiezhu said.

I don't want Professor Xu to worry about these abnormally growing mycelium. This must be related to the use of space water, but I can't explain it clearly.

"Yes, yes, but you don't have corn cavities at home." Professor Xu said excitedly, and then frowned again.

"Hahaha, this thing is easy to fix. I'll go to Erye's house later and help him rub some corn. Then the corn cavity will be ready." Chen Tiezhu said indifferently.

"Have you eaten? If not, come to my house and have a bite. I just got up. We have to work slowly and put our health first."

"We finished eating early. We just had porridge for breakfast. It's worry-free, easy to make, and warm after drinking it." Professor Xu said.

"Okay, you two can't just help with research. You must also take care of Lao Xu's health." Chen Tiezhu looked at his two assistants again.

"Now we are just doing a small job of growing mushrooms. There are many other projects in the future. We can't limit ourselves to the mushroom house. Agricultural production involves a very wide range."

"Yeah, Brother Tiezhu, don't worry." Guo Tianye smiled and nodded.

But after he finished speaking, he was stunned. Why did it seem like a superior was giving orders to a subordinate?

And he answered so smoothly?

After the explanation, Chen Tiezhu also put on his coat and went back to the house to cook.

I have to find something new for Professor Xu, otherwise his mind will be on these myceliums, and the old man will be confused.

After returning to the house and thinking for a while, I decided to cook some porridge, fry some meat sauce, and prepare some pickled vegetables, which are also very refreshing.

"Tiezhu, why haven't you eaten yet?"

While busy, Hu Yadong walked in from outside.

"I went up the mountain yesterday and got up late today. You haven't been busy recently, right? I'll sharpen the planer when I have time, so that I can finish it." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Okay, there's no rush. I have something to tell you. Zhang Quansheng has started to gossip again. You have some idea in your mind." Hu Yadong said.

"Thank you, Uncle Dong. Uncle Jianguo also talked to me last night. What do I believe in? Justice is in the hearts of the people, not what his family says." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"It's OK if you know it." Hu Yadong nodded with a smile and walked out again.

His arrival basically kicked off today's visit.

During the meal, several people came to visit his house, all talking about the Zhang family's gossip.

"Did you see it? People's hearts are revealed over time, and the eyes of the masses are sharp." Chen Tiezhu said with a little complacency.

"Your bad intentions have been exposed, right? I knew you didn't say anything, so you must have bad intentions." Han Xiuying glanced at him.

"That's nothing, the villagers can test me, and I can also test the villagers. Doudou, take you to feed the pigs." Chen Tiezhu waved his hand and walked out with a water bucket.

"Dad, why do they eat so much?" Doudou asked curiously.

"They grow big, so they have to eat more. Eat more, so they can grow fatter, and then Doudou can eat more meat." Chen Tiezhu said.

Doudou nodded his little head.

Having meat to eat is of course a very good thing. Even if you don’t stew the meat, it’s also good to fry it like this morning.When he came to the pig pen, the big fat pig came over with a grunt,

He stirred it casually with a water scoop, and poured half a bucket of it into the trough.

The big fat pig stuck its head in and started eating. When it ate the cabbage leaves, it made a smacking sound in its mouth.

Just this movement, Doudou couldn't help but pursed his lips.

"Dad, why does it eat so deliciously? Is the pig food delicious?" Doudou asked in confusion.

"You are a greedy cat, but you can't really be a greedy cat. You can't eat this stuff." Chen Tiezhu said helplessly.

"Okay, feed the old sow next to it. I have to add a little bean cake to it. It's pregnant, so I have to take good care of it."

The old sow's appetite is also very good, eating with a bang.

This is actually the power of the space water, and Chen Tiezhu is really willing to feed the pigs. There are a lot of dry goods in it, how can it not be delicious?

"Dad, when can we eat pork?" Doudou asked as he walked into the house.

"Soon, wait until the Little New Year." Chen Tiezhu said casually.

Doudou nodded his head in a pretentious manner, but in fact he didn't know when the Little New Year was. He only knew that his father said it would be soon, so it should be soon.

"Are you really not going to say anything to the villagers?" Han Xiuying asked after washing the dishes.

"Let the bullets fly for a while. Even if I take care of the villagers in the future, I have to have a sense of intimacy, right?" Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"I will definitely take good care of those who are in my good temper. Otherwise, with so many people in the village, if you ask me to take care of every family, I will be so tired, and I will have no time to play happily with you."

"Get lost, you are not serious when you talk." Han Xiuying glared at him.

"Hey, there's a lot of work to do today. I'll go to Uncle Jianguo's house to get some corn husks, and then try to make a new culture medium. I'll have to steam and pound the sauce cubes later." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Is it for making soybean paste?" Han Xiuying asked hurriedly.

"Well, I'll take you to play when the time comes, don't worry." Chen Tiezhu coaxed.

Han Xiuying punched him out of habit.

But in her heart, she was still very curious about making sauce cubes.
