Busy Farming In the Last Days

Soybeans have been soaked for more than twelve hours from yesterday afternoon to the morning. There is a tradition of making various soy products in the rural areas of S City during the New Year, so making tofu is not difficult.

Ji Cha found out the grinder he had prepared early, and dragged the production site to the open area beside the well.

There are no other wells nearby, and the army still has to come to the factory to draw water while drilling wells. Seeing Ji Cha set up the battle today, I couldn't help but ask him, "What are you planning to do?"

There is more than one place in the factory that attracts people's attention. Those green vegetable fields and all kinds of sprouting vegetable seedlings are enough to win the eye.

The soldier who came to contact and fetch water was called Zhao Tiankuo, who was in his early twenties and was from the north.

"Prepare to make tofu," Ji Cha replied to Zhao Tiankuo, "By the way, I would like to ask if you have tofu there. Old tofu, thousand sheets, and oily tofu are all ok. If you have soybeans, I can do it. Do."

"It's pretty good," Zhao Tiankuo's eyes lit up, and he complained, "You don't know that we haven't eaten fresh vegetables there for a few days. Some time ago, they still had vegetables grown in their fields, but they had eaten them for two days. It's gone, now the mouth of canned food is not good, I want to eat something fresh!"

"It's not just tofu, but soybeans can also produce bean sprouts." Ji Cha saw that there was a way out, and quickly continued to sell it. "The bean sprouts also sprout quickly and are nutritious. We have eaten a lot here."

Zhao Tiankuo said, "I will go back and react with the leaders above. I guess it can be done. I won't let you do it in vain. I guess it will give you some food profits."

What Ji Cha wants is the security guaranteed by the troops. Of course, it is best if there are additional profits.

After being soaked overnight, the swollen and soft soybeans are mixed with water and then polished by a bean grinder to turn into white raw okara. Three buckets are attached. It is estimated that just making tofu can make hundreds of catties.

Green vegetables have been very prosperous since they grew luxuriantly. In the past few days, Ji Cha has also opened up a large field and planted various crops collectively called green vegetables. Now they have sprouts, and a green patch is covered. The whole field.

If you can’t finish eating it at home, the season tea will be divided into two processing methods. One is to send it to the army to feed it to the upper-level leaders. For the follow-up, he wants to expand the scale of planting first. The green vegetables are sun-dried and processed into dried plums, which not only has a long shelf life, but also tastes unique.

Datongzi is an idea that Jicha has vaguely begun to have recently. At the beginning, he established such a self-sufficient system in the factory because he wanted to survive without relying on others, and he didn't want to repeat the experience of working on the farm. But now Ji Cha understands that this kind of thinking is impractical. Without saying that the plant tree is so popular, it is impossible for him to be completely isolated from the world in a social base.

It would be better to open the farm yourself, this step must be completed by the troops. After all, the land inside the factory building is not enough to open a farm.

Zhao Tiankuo came back not long after, and he also brought an officer who was obviously more senior than him.

At that time, the raw bean dregs were boiled on the big pot of the earth stove and bubbled, and the air was filled with a smell of bean scent.

"This has to be done a little bit more. Who can eat that amount is not enough!" The people who came were also quick to say, "We just discussed it. After all, this thing has a lot of costs. You can't lose it. You can get one out of a pound of beans. I'll give you two, plus some subsidies for firewood, what do you think?"

This has already made Ji Cha very pleasantly surprised. He nodded without hesitation at the moment, and then said, "No matter how large the scale is, my side may not have enough manpower. Can you give me a quota for military recruitment? It doesn't have to be every day. Just leave me five a day when I make tofu, and I will pick someone when I do?"

This right is just letting go of the hand. The officer nodded and said happily, "This is easy to say, I'll go and say hello to them in a moment. I'll have someone bring the beans over in the afternoon. You can start to do it tomorrow."

"That's good." Ji Cha breathed a sigh of relief, "When I have tofu ready here, let Zhao Tiankuo get some back."

The officer smiled and looked at the green vegetables in the field, and pointedly said, "The vegetables you grow here are pretty good..."

Season tea has been mixed in apocalyptic farms for so many years. Can’t you understand what it means? I’m very up-to-date at the moment, saying, “It’s very good. I picked two catties and sent them together."

"Speaking of this," Ji Cha took the opportunity to mention his own thoughts, "I don't have other resources here. Growing vegetables and food is pretty good. If there are a few fields on it, I can help manage it."

This is in the heart of the officer. Although they have a few large granaries, they can eat food for several years, but once the base is established, they will attract people from all over the country. When the population grows geometrically, the food may be gone. No. Now Ji Cha's proposal to help grow grains is a solution to the military's urgent need.

It’s just that this is still a very big decision. It’s not like making tofu that the officer can decide for himself. He thought about it and said in deep thought, "Well, you can make tofu for two days first. The leader said, plan this thing, and then see if it can be left to you."

For the time being, this result has made Ji Cha very happy. He nodded, "Thank you so much."

As soon as the officer left, other people in the workshop gathered around.

"You don't have to worry about going out and looking for things to do." Ji Chadao, "If you can smoothly connect with the army, wouldn't it be much better than working hard outside?"

Li Xiuqin applauded Ji Cha's actions, "It's not the case. We are few people. I think those people outside are blatant. No one dares to bully with the soldiers."

"It's pretty good," Wang Qinxue said.

"I think there is still a high probability that the above approval will allow us to go to various fields outside. Only when we have the resources in our hands can we be hardened." Ji Cha remembered the farm in the former S base, not only the small workers inside, but the inside. The little leader is also not the target of outsiders.

A bowl of vegetables on the black market can be comparable to ordinary people's income for half a month, but doesn't it all flow from the fingers of people like them? Ji Cha has deeply felt this power gap, but he didn't expect that he would stand on the other side of power.

What he can do is try not to repeat the same mistakes as much as possible. Ji Cha's hope is to expand production to allow everyone to eat meat and vegetables, and live a comfortable life. This must take a lot of effort, but it is worth a try.

Liang Jincheng is still the same today as yesterday. He went out in the morning and didn't go home until the evening.

The grain truck in the army arrived as scheduled and unloaded several thousand catties of soybeans from the top. The grain transporter and Ji Cha counted a side of the beans, and then said, "As much as you do, you have to keep an account. Tomorrow, we will make about one thousand catties of old tofu. , Send out three hundred catties of bean sprouts, and you will get 10% out of one catty. The firewood will be delivered by a car tomorrow."

The accounts are clear.

Soybeans are being transported here, and there are still workers who have not left the place where the project started. At this time, they all vaguely cast their sights on Ji Cha. People and vehicles of the army entered and exited here all day, and everyone was watching.

After a while, the people of all colors who used to get to the entrance of the factory every day will never see you again.

The workshop was relaxed, and Ji Cha also felt very happy.

Today, a total of 120 catties of tofu are made, and the profit of making tofu from soybeans is actually very high. One catty of soybeans usually yields three catties of tofu, and if it is soft tofu, it can even be more than four catties.

Ji Cha sent fifty catties to the army and added another ten catties of greens. Zhao Tiankuo didn't say anything, but the smile on his face was like a blossom, and he went back happily with tofu and greens.

There are still 70 kilograms of tofu left here, and even the family members can’t eat it by themselves. So Ji Cha set up a small stall at the entrance of the factory and waited for the people on the construction site to get off work to exchange canned food and grain before bartering.

One can for two catties of tofu, or two or two rice for one catty of tofu.

When the stall was first set up, most of the people stood in the distance with tentative eyes and looked at it. When two courageous people came to change the tofu smoothly, more people came over.

The canned food issued by the army is not unpalatable, but the canned food is not as attractive as fresh tofu, let alone placed in front of a group of displaced people who have not eaten fresh dishes for an unknown period of time.

The 68 kilograms of tofu that Ji Cha took out was cleaned up in less than an hour. Some people who lived far away saw their neighbors bring fresh tofu home, and asked where their tofu came from, so they hurried over. It's too late, the tofu has already been replaced, they can only ask if there is any more tomorrow.

I'm not sure about this season's tea. I can only tell them that this is for the troops to make the rest. There may be tomorrow but the number will not be large.

That's why many people left their eyes on them, planning to come over tomorrow morning to get a piece of tofu.

Ji Cha is content to put away the stalls and move back all the canned rice noodles, and soak the beans for tofu tomorrow. Fortunately, he bought a lot of barrels and gauze with very dense grids early, otherwise he would have to make more than a thousand catties of tofu at a time. There is really no guarantee that the tools are not enough.

One thousand catties of tofu requires at least three hundred catties of beans. He weighs them with an electronic scale and makes them separately. Then he does not forget to record all the accounts in his notebook one by one, preparing to check the accounts with the troops tomorrow.

As for the bean sprouts, it will take a long time. However, I don’t know how many times it has been done at home, so the proportion is configured and placed again. It takes about three days to harvest.

Liang Jincheng returned home in the afterglow of the setting sun, and he was as tired as yesterday, and said goodbye to Qin Shuang at the door.

Ji Cha happened to be standing at the door and looking around. When he saw this, he felt a little sour in his heart. He also remembered Liang Jincheng's inexplicable escape behavior last night. At this moment, looking at Liang Jincheng, his nose is not a nose and eyes are not eyes.

"Are you tired today?" Liang Jincheng didn't seem to feel anything wrong, walked to Jin Cha and talked to him with a gentle expression.

"A little tired, are you tired?" Ji Cha stared at Liang Jincheng, looking up and down on him, "Why didn't Shuangshuang come in and sit down? Have you been together during the day?"

Liang Jincheng nodded, "She still has things to do, so don't be too polite."

He was careful not to see that Qin Shuang would be seduced by her a few times, but he didn't know that Ji Cha already felt that his mind was seduced by the little fairy Qin Shuang.

Otherwise, why don't you tell me what he and Qin Shuang did outside all day, or why don't you want to accompany him now?

Ji Cha remembered that Liang Jincheng was with herself every day before, and even had to rush to work with a hoe. That's a dangdang favor. Now that it is in hand, does it feel okay?

Angrily in his heart, he once again turned Liang Jincheng scumbag into a male in his mind.

"Why did you leave suddenly last night?" Ji Cha couldn't help asking.

Liang Jincheng was silent and did not speak immediately.

Ji Cha is suspicious, and even more asks, "Why?"

The two stopped at the door, and there were many people sitting in the living room. Liang Jincheng remained silent for a while, then turned to Ji Chadao, "Shall we go upstairs to talk?"

Ji Cha looked back at the people in the living room, thought about Liang Jincheng's bad record, and was afraid that he would do anything unusual here, and nodded immediately, "Okay."

The two went upstairs in tandem, and the living room upstairs was very empty.

"Can you tell me now?" Ji Cha was a little bit angry.

"Last night, I was afraid that I would stay awkward to you." Liang Jincheng stood at the top of the stairs and did not move forward. His eyes were burning two steps away from Ji Cha, "It's like now I can't move forward anymore. I’m leaving, I’m afraid I can’t help but continue what I didn’t finish last night."

"..." Ji Cha quickly took a step back, "You have to control yourself, it's still broad daylight now!"

Liang Jincheng laughed in a low voice, "Chacha, don't be like this."

"What's this..." Ji Cha wondered, "What are you laughing at?"

He always felt that Liang Jincheng was laughing at himself now, and there was a lot of unkindness in his smile.

Liang Jincheng moved forward slowly, "Because you are so cute, I can't help thinking." His steps stopped in front of Ji Cha, took his hand and kissed, then bowed his head and kissed his cheek. One bite, "I can't help but want to kiss you, or do something more excessive..."

Ji Cha blushed, and said gruffly, "You, you can't wait until you click!"

Liang Jincheng took Ji Cha into his arms, "Just like now, I want to kiss your eyes, then kiss your lips, and finally kiss..." The last words were hidden by Liang Jincheng. , His gaze crossed Ji Cha and landed on the sofa behind him.

Ji Cha was puzzled, struggling to free himself from his arms and looking back, puzzled, "What are you looking at...?"

He finally got used to Liang Jincheng's rogue temperament, and wanted to hear what he was talking about later. Why did he suddenly get stuck?

The thin blanket on the sofa of the same color as the sofa suddenly moved, and Ji Cha's originally calm face suddenly turned red, as if bleeding from inside.

Fuck, fuck, there are people! ? ? The shameful Ji Cha felt that she could explode on the spot.

And Zhang Xing, who was sleeping on the other side of the sofa, also felt that he might have just stood up and jumped from the second floor.
