The morning passed by while he was eating grapes and reading books.
"Big pot, I'm full."
Chen Li touched her belly and leaned on him, looking happy.
"I want to sleep."
Chen Feng held her in his arms and looked at the time. It was almost 12 o'clock, so he got up and returned the book.
"Ahem, Comrade Xiao, Comrade Chen."
The administrator took a look at the library card and said, "Do you have any more grapes at home?"
Chen Feng smiled and shook his head, saying apologetically, "Not many."
There are indeed a lot of grapes in the space, but it's November now!
It's not something that ordinary people can do to get so many grapes.
"It's okay, welcome to come often." The administrator said in an unusually kind manner.
Holding the sleepy little girl, when leaving the park, there were 4 sturdy grape vines in my hand.
It turned out that a small part of the grapes on the grape vines went into Chen Feng and Chen Li's stomachs, and most of them were squeezed into juice and stored in soda bottles.
Like crops such as rice, grapes are self-pollinating and do not need the help of external small animals such as butterflies and bees for pollination. There is pollen on the end of its petals, and the pollen will fall back into the flower to complete the pollination process.
However, Chen Feng still put a nest of beehives and some bees in the expanded space when he went up the mountain before.
Now more than half a month has passed, and they have not only formed a bee colony, but also the individuals are twice as large as normal bees.
"Let you work hard for a while, and then take it when there is more honey."
Chen Feng took a look at the beehive of the apple tree and decided to wait.
Although the food in the space continues to bloom and bear fruit, there are not many bees, and they must be allowed to further expand the bee colony.
A bee can fly about 160km a day, and the capacity of its honey sac is about 0.03 to 0.05 grams.
A bee flies out about 15 times a day, and can collect up to 0.75 grams of honey a day, but nectar is high in water, accounting for about 70%, and must be brewed by bees to become honey with a water content of no more than 20%.
In other words, a bee can only collect 0.27 grams of nectar after working hard for a day and flying hundreds of kilometers.
And to make one kilogram of honey, bees must collect raw materials from 200,000 to 5 million flowers.
The model workers in nature are so terrifying!
If you want to drink honey every day, it is impossible without tens of thousands of bees and a huge sea of flowers.
"Xiao Feng, you are back, didn't you go fishing?"
A group of aunts asked enthusiastically.
Chen Feng keenly felt that they were particularly happy that he didn't go fishing.
"No, I went to read today, and there is no shortage of food at home."
The expressions of the aunts were obviously stiffened by three points.
Chen Feng smiled secretly in his heart.
People are afraid that others live better than themselves.
When they returned home, the old man was diagnosing the pulse of nearby residents.
This is also one of the ways for the old man to gain prestige.
Chen Feng carried the little girl into his room and put her on Chen Hao's bed.
He picked up a shovel and enthusiastically dug four pits at the door of his house, and carefully planted the grape vines.
At the same time, he inserted four bamboo poles into them, and used sticks and some straw ropes to start building a simple grape rack.
In order to make the grape vines grow as quickly as possible, he also came up with a little trick.
While no one was paying attention, he quietly sprinkled two bowls of well water and slowly poured it into the soil around the grape vines.
Since Zhou Qing started working, he likes to have lunch at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, for the purpose of saving that little money.
Chen Feng took the initiative to come out and cook for himself, so that the old lady could rest.
The old man couldn't stay idle, so he went to wake up Chen Li in the room.
"Lili, get up! It's time for lunch~"
Chen Li heard someone calling her name in a daze, but her eyelids seemed to be glued shut and she couldn't open them.
After a while, the voice came again, and Chen Li barely opened her eyes and replied in a slightly sleepy tone: "Grandma, I'm full."
"What did you eat? How come you're full?" The old lady asked with a puzzled look.
"Grapes! So many big and sweet grapes!"
Thinking of the sweet taste of grapes, Chen Li suddenly became more awake, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
"You little greedy cat, you only know how to eat." Looking at her granddaughter's cute appearance, the old lady couldn't help but laugh and scold, then stretched out her hand to pull Chen Li up, and also tidied up her wrinkled clothes.
In the next few days, Chen Feng either studied at home or went fishing in Beihai, Yuanmingyuan and other places.
fish, and continued to exchange "large quantities" of fruits and canned goods from the cannery, and also met the fresh fish needs of some steel mills and street offices.
The relationship between Ran Qiuye and Shazhu, and between Lou Xiaoe and Chen Jianguo improved rapidly.
Especially the former, one was hard to find a partner, and the other could not find a partner. After more than ten days of contact, their feelings grew rapidly.
These days, the little girl stayed with him all the time.
Wherever he went, she would follow him.
"Okay, Lili, I'm going to catch rabbits in the mountains, you wait for me at home."
Chen Li grabbed the corner of his clothes and was unwilling to let go.
The old man still had a way.
"If you hold on again, you are not allowed to eat at noon."
The magic weapon used by the old man was extremely powerful.
"Big pot, you must come back early."
The little girl said pitifully.
"Okay, I will come back as soon as possible."
Chen Feng brought two big bags this time.
It will be a cold winter in late November or December, and there might be heavy snow.
He needs to stock up enough meat for his family before the snow falls.
"Chen Feng, wait a minute."
Zhang Xiaohua saw him passing by the supply and marketing cooperative and hurriedly chased him out.
Chen Feng pretended not to hear and rode away at high speed on his bicycle.
But his actions had the opposite effect.
"Chen Feng, wait a minute!"
Zhang Xiaohua caught up with him on a new bicycle.
It looked like she would not give up until she achieved her goal.
Chen Feng had no choice but to stop and asked, "Why are you chasing me?"
"I have nothing to do in the supply and marketing cooperative, so I went hunting with you."
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't take advantage of you. I will exchange the prey I hunt with you for tickets, pheasants and rabbits for mutton tickets."
"I received news that a batch of old sheep from Inner Mongolia will be sent to Beijing in the next few days."
Every day, various supplies enter Sijiucheng, including sea fish from Tianjin, cattle from Inner Mongolia, sheep from Taihang Mountains, fruits from Hebei, and grain from Northeast China.
The bulk of the sheep, the closer ones are "Southern White-headed Sheep", such as mutton from Yixian, Laishui and Quyang in Hebei; the farther ones are Beikou sheep, referring to Zhangjiakou, Zhangbei, and Inner Mongolia.
Sijiucheng has support from provinces across the country, and the supplies are pretty good.
There is a shortage of pork in Shanghai, so mutton and beef are often used instead.
In early March 1959, beef was substituted at a ratio of 1:1; in mid-March, mutton was substituted at a ratio of 1:1; in early April, cooked meat was substituted at a ratio of 1:1; from late May, 10 eggs were substituted for 0.5 kg of pork; in late October, cooked lard was substituted for meat used by the canteen and catering industry at a ratio of 1:1.
Mutton and beef replaced pork, and this only happened in this special era.
Chen Feng's heart moved and asked, "I don't eat mutton, I prefer antiques, you exchange antiques?"
Zhang Xiaohua was so angry that she gave him a fierce look and said calmly, "Two live pheasants, I want to raise them to lay eggs."
Catching live pheasants is not easy.
She felt that this problem could be difficult for Chen Feng.
"No problem!"
Chen Feng agreed immediately. It was just to release two pheasants from the space. He said, "I want something good that is more than three hundred years old."
"You are so greedy!"
Zhang Xiaohua felt distressed.
Looking at Lai Fu lying in the bag, he was envious.
To get the dog of the Wu family, you need more than money and power.
Old Wu loves dogs like his life. It is not an ordinary person who can buy his dog son.
