The next day, both the Wood Tribe and the Blood Tribe set off, and Yuming and Cugu took their tribesmen with them to protect them.
On the third day, Yan also took his tribe back. Originally, Yan planned to follow him for a while, but now in this season, the remaining more than 100 people in the Kuei tribe cannot do without the protection of these men, so Zhang Heng decided to make an agreement before winter.
In view.
Ten days later, all other tribes left, and the people of the Wood Tribe and the Blood Tribe also moved to Taihao.
At this point, the population of Taihao has doubled, and the problem of housing has been put in front of us. There is no need to worry about food for the time being. There is already a surplus from the previous sweet potato planting, and the land will be opened immediately so that it can be planted again this year.
Two crops, radish and potatoes, appeared, as well as cabbage and green vegetables. In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Zhang family relied on radish and green vegetables. There were no other crops to grow at that time, and every meal consisted of green vegetables and radish.
Carrots are sown by sowing seeds. Due to land utilization, in Zhangjia Village, they usually order carrots later. They are usually sown from late October to late November. At this time, the sweet potatoes have just been harvested and the land is freed up. In January of the following year,
Harvested in March, as the main dish in winter and spring, it can be stewed, eaten cold, or dried into radish, soaked in radish, etc. The planting cycle is short, and it can be eaten raw.
The stems of the seedlings can also be used to make kimchi, which tastes even better.
In the village, because there are too many radish, the taste is very tricky. Generally, only the skin of the radish is used to make pickled cabbage. The skin is more delicious than the meat inside, which is crisper and more flavorful. Take about ten centimeters of dried stems
The soaked sauerkraut is more suitable for making sauerkraut fish. These two are the favorite dishes of the villagers.
Zhang Heng nodded, Luo Bu just took advantage of the winter window period in the original space land.
The planting season of green vegetables is also similar. It is slightly earlier than that of radish. Green vegetables belong to the mustard family and are divided into three types. One type only has green leaves. It is suitable for feeding livestock and making salted vegetables (leaf cake). The second type is both
The long leaves also grow stems. Livestock eat the leaves, and people can eat the leaf stems. The leaf stems are also the main force in making kimchi. They are green and bow-shaped. Because they are cheap, ten out of ten kimchi on the market are made from green vegetables.
There are also dried stems that can be eaten, called cabbage green heads, which can be roasted, stewed, stir-fried... the flavor is quite good.
The third type of green vegetables will have many small sarcomas growing at the roots, which can also be eaten. However, the taste is bitter, but each sarcoma can be made into kimchi. After being soaked in sour water, the taste will immediately improve by n levels.
, the pickled mustard on the market is made from this kind of vegetable sarcoma.
These three types of green vegetables are grown in rural areas. The first type is an old variety. It is a variety that existed when the People's Commune was first established. Villages can save the seeds themselves, while the latter two are variant products developed after the development of agriculture and cannot be kept.
Seeds can only be purchased every year at agricultural machinery stations and other places.
The biggest feature of these three types of vegetables is that you can peel only the leaves. Peel them every once in a while and feed them to livestock. They can be peeled for a long time. They are used to survive the shortage of food in winter and are the main products for feeding livestock.
Turnips and green vegetables are the types of vegetables that Zhang Heng is most familiar with and eats the most. Now, the family’s Yeerba business relies heavily on the salted vegetables pickled from the green vegetables. Without the salted vegetables, it cannot be called Yeerba.
This is the traditional flavor.
Zhang Heng aimed at growing radish, not only because radish can be grown in winter, but also because he thought about the problem of "soup pot". He wanted to make the village's traditional soup for entertaining guests, namely: "Sour Radish Duck Soup!"
I plan to use this dish to help the family earn money. The chicken is good for the body and the duck is for removing heat. The sour radish and old duck soup is very popular in Zhang Heng’s hometown. He can also make it. Not only that, primitive people can also process it and breed it.
He used the duck and processed it together with pickled radish, and used it as a seasoning for the soup pot. The word "secret recipe" popped up, and this was the secret recipe he had just thought of.
As for cabbage, this is also simple, you can just sow the seeds directly, and it is divided into two types: small and large cabbages. If you don't consider the harvest, you can plant them in any season, just sow the seeds directly, and the taste is quite good when you only harvest the seedlings.
Finally, potatoes are a little more troublesome, but they can also be grown in original spaces. Cut the potatoes into wedges, wrap the cut surfaces with grass ash, dry them and bury them in the ground. Cover them with pine needles to keep them warm to promote germination, and then transplant them out.
In Zhang Heng’s hometown, they usually plant after spring, but they can also plant in summer and autumn... The harvest is just different. However, the biggest disadvantage of potatoes is not that planting is relatively troublesome, but that potato seedlings are completely useless and are not eaten by livestock. Some are not edible.
beautiful.
We can only expect that the potatoes in the original space will be larger. Potatoes can be stewed, fried, or directly eaten over fire. They will satisfy hunger and taste delicious.
Green vegetables, radish, cabbage and potatoes. These four vegetables are the suitable ones that Zhang Heng has come up with so far. When growing vegetables in the original space, the first thing to consider is the yield, convenience of planting, and convenience of cooking, rather than the taste.
As the saying goes in the village: "The so-called meat tube lasts for three days, and the soup tube lasts for seven days." At the same price, the old people would rather buy bones to stew at home, because the concept is to maintain life as the starting point, just eat a little to survive, eat less.
After all, the day can pass. Hungry is not fatal. It will pass if you endure it. If your thoughts are different, your final actions will be different.
Spiritual enjoyment must start from the material basis. Zhang Heng thought, no longer treating himself as a child, his thoughts gradually broadened, and what he had seen and heard in the past was slowly sorted out. It turned out that he was not that ignorant, it was just the past
He automatically ignored many of his experiences, and if he didn't care, how could he improve his knowledge?
Human nature is inherently good. This is said in political textbooks, but it caused controversy in the class at that time. Zhang Heng is now basically sure. Just look at the primitive people today and you will know that everyone is actually kind, including Yu Ming.
, it’s just that the environment has created different personalities, and now this environment will be influenced by him.
"Witch, take out my seeds." I brought in a lot of seeds before, including green vegetables, radish, and cabbage. Now I don't care about the season, I will just plant them for an experiment before talking.
Wu Yiting quickly ran back to the cave, carefully took out the seed bag containing the spirit from the treasure, and rushed out again.
Zhang Heng took it and took a look. There are quite a lot of varieties, and they should still be usable. The temperature in the cave is good all year round, and it should not get damp yet. In rural areas, most households will have a lime jar, with half of the space below the jar filled with lime, and the top half of the jar.
Half of the space is filled with these seeds, as well as other items such as melon seeds, peanuts, biscuits, and sugar.
Thinking of lime, Zhang Heng also became interested. Lime has a wide range of uses. In building houses, as long as buildings are not being built, lime can be used to directly replace cement when building bungalows. In the past, stone houses in the village were basically made of lime.
Made of a mixture of sand.
During the people's commune period, the village had a tradition of collectively firing lime, refractory bricks and tiles. However, tiles and bricks are more troublesome, but lime is super simple. Just find the limestone and burn it directly in the kiln.
Moreover, lime can also cure stomachache. This is a traditional method in rural areas. When children have stomachaches, the old people will scrape some lime powder from the wall and mix it into water for the children to drink. However, this is just a joke. There is no magic.
In this profession, primitive people did not lack medicinal herbs for treating diseases...)
