Chapter 533 Lin Xu: As a graduate of Central Finance and Economics, isn’t it normal to know how to kill pigs? [Please subscribe]

"Finally home!"

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Xu got off the expressway and turned onto the second-level provincial highway heading to Longqi Mountain Scenic Area. Shen Jiayue, who had slept almost the whole way, rubbed her eyes and looked at the mountains in the distance, and her mood became brighter.

Finally returned to Yinzhou again.

I don’t know what the scenery on the mountain is like, and I don’t know if there are any big fish in the reservoir.

After looking at the mountains, the girl turned her face and looked back. She found that the bus was nowhere to be seen, and asked curiously:

"Why didn't they follow?"

Lin Xu said:

"Our whole journey is 120, and the bus can only go to 80 or 90. It is estimated that it will arrive an hour later than us."

In the back seat, Lin Hongqi looked at the messages on her phone:

"There are pigs raised by farmers in the nearby village. Your cousin said that he could help collect a few pigs. How many pigs would it be more appropriate for us to kill them?"

Although it is now rare to raise pigs at home, people in the mountains still have the habit of raising pigs and do not feed them any feed. They usually have leftovers or pigweed specially harvested, which can only be slaughtered in a year.

Lin Xu didn't expect to be able to buy farm-raised pigs, so he said:

"These pork are used to provide benefits to the employees of the scenic area and to serve as running banquets for guests. It is estimated to be quite a lot. I will kill five or six of them. Even if it is too much, it will be fine. I just take advantage of the cold weather to pickle some bacon and hang it up."

Whether you make bacon, soy sauce meat or smoked bacon, there will be no waste of ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about killing too many pigs.

Lin Hongqi said:

"Then let your cousin buy six pigs. The price is higher than the market price. It's not easy for people to raise pigs for a year, so we can't let them suffer."

As a former junior cadre of China Merchants Bureau, Lin Hongqi knows how to deal with nearby villagers.

When I bought yams last time, I deliberately raised the price to give the villagers a good impression of the scenic spot. This time I bought pigs and I didn’t plan to save money.

At the beginning of winter, he and Chen Meijuan also bought a batch of cotton-padded clothes and rice, flour, grains and oils and gave them to the lonely elderly people in the village. When delivering them, they specifically contacted the village committee and gave them in the name of charity.

In this way, the lonely old man got a benefit, and the village committee felt proud, and even specially notified the TV station to report on it. In the end, everyone was happy.

Sophistication is a science. Although many people despise tact, when doing business, only by being tactful can we gain a better foothold in this society.

When Lin Hongqi was sending a message on her mobile phone, Chen Meijuan next to her said:

"Tell Cousin Chunsheng to see if there are any better sheep in the village, and buy two. If you want to eat hot-boiled meat someday, you can kill them."

"I told him to buy some chickens, ducks, geese and so on. This year there are many people in the family, and we have to hold a running banquet, so the amount of these ingredients is relatively large."

While the couple was chatting in the back seat, Shen Jiayue's face in the passenger seat was beaming.

Wow, with so much meat, I can’t forget to exercise recently, lest I turn into a fat little guy and be laughed at by Yan Bao and the others when I go back.

From now on, I will climb Longshou Peak once a day to stay in shape, and I will be able to laugh at them when I go back.

When he arrived at the scenic spot, Lin Xu took out a bag of soft Chinese that was placed in the car and stuffed a pack into it when he saw relatives working in the scenic spot. Everyone had a share.

Lin Hongqi and Chen Meijuan looked at each other with happy smiles on their faces.

My son has changed a lot this year. When he was studying in Beijing, every time he came home during the holidays, he would just sit in the house and play games. He would not even say hello to these cousins ​​when he saw them.

Now after doing business, I not only take the initiative to say hello to my relatives, but also know how to stuff cigarettes for my elders.

When the child is successful, the parents’ faces will also be bright.

Arriving at the farmhouse restaurant, Lin Xu found that the place had actually been expanded. The yard was tidier and larger. There was also a metal shed where the reservoir could be seen not far away. Visitors could sit in the shed while enjoying the lake view.

While eating.

After parking the car in the yard, several relatives who were helping in the kitchen immediately came out to say hello.

Shi Wenming is not here these days, but someone still has to cook the meals in the scenic spot, so a few relatives with cooking experience took the lead.

Lin Xu handed out cigarettes to everyone, while Shen Jiayue brought wedding cakes for everyone to taste and feel happy.

When the wedding was held in Beijing, none of the cousins ​​here went.

Firstly, it’s quite busy, and secondly, it’s too troublesome. This time I made a flowing banquet just to entertain these relatives and friends of the Lin family.

While everyone was chatting, Shen Jiayue zipped up her down jacket and said with a smile:

"The temperature in my hometown is just a little lower. It's so cold in broad daylight."

When several relatives heard this, they quickly asked her to go in to warm up the fire. There was a coal stove in the house, which could not only keep warm, but also roast sweet potatoes and peanuts for eating.

A cousin said:

"You are hungry too, the food is ready and ready to eat at any time."

As soon as we set off from the capital today, Lin Hongqi asked the kitchen to prepare the ingredients so that everyone would not go hungry after getting off the bus.

Lin Xu looked at his phone and said:

"Just wait a moment. The large army has arrived at HD. It's not too far from here. Let's have dinner together when we arrive."

He glanced at the door of the kitchen and found a super large oval wooden basin about half a meter deep. The four walls were reinforced with iron hoops and asked curiously:

"What is this for? For killing pigs?"

My cousin smiled:

"The old butcher in the nearby village heard that we were going to kill pigs, so he sent us a set of equipment for killing pigs. In addition to this wooden basin, there are also meat hooks, racks and so on... Xiao Xuqian really knows how to kill pigs? Do you want to let me do it?

Is he here to help?"

Lin Xu said:

"No, I'll do it. As a chef, it doesn't matter if you don't know how to kill pigs and sheep."

Shen Jiayue curiously leaned over and took a look at the oversized and deep wooden barrel. She originally thought it was a bathtub, but she didn't expect it to be used for killing pigs.

"Xubao, how do you use this basin?"

Lin Xu said:

"It is used for scalding pigs. When killing a pig, you need to bleed it first, then fill it with hot water, and then put the pig in and scald it. Then you can scrape the hair of the pig, and then you can disembowel it and take out the internal organs."

With the pig-killing technique in hand, the whole process has been completely imprinted in my mind.

“Then can’t we eat butchered vegetables tomorrow?”

"Yes."

"I haven't eaten pig meat yet. I had it once in a restaurant before and I didn't think it tasted good."

Lin Xu pinched this girl’s cheek:

"Pork-killing dishes must be made with freshly slaughtered pork to taste delicious. If there is a slight delay, the taste will be greatly reduced. It does not taste good in the restaurant. It is most likely leftover. I will make a meal for you to try tomorrow.

, guaranteed to be delicious."

"Thank you Xubao!"

At this time, an aunt came out of the kitchen, holding some sweet potatoes, wild chestnuts, shelled peanuts and other snacks roasted in a coal stove:

"Xiao Xu, come and try it with your wife. It's just roasted. These chestnuts and sweet potatoes are sweeter than honey."

The sweet potatoes roasted slowly on a coal stove over low heat are full of aroma and sweetness, and there is even honey-like soup flowing out from the cracked skin of the sweet potatoes.

Chen Meijuan said to Shen Jiayue:

"This is your cousin, please say thank you."

"Thank you, Auntie."

"Oh, the kids in this big city are polite, so hurry up and eat. We grew these sweet potatoes ourselves in the wasteland and can't buy them outside."

Shen Jiayue thanked her again, then picked up the sweet potato, tore off the skin and took a small bite.

As soon as she had it in her mouth, she said to Lin Xu:

"This sweet potato is delicious, sweet and fragrant, no worse than the honey potato we eat."

Lin Xu tasted it and it tasted really good.

While we were eating, a man in his fifties drove a farm three-wheeler into the yard, with six fat and strong pigs on board.

This is Zhang Chunsheng, Chen Meijuan’s cousin, and Lin Xu’s cousin.

Zhang Chunsheng, holding a cigarette in his mouth, drove the car to a corner of the courtyard, where a temporary pigsty had been built.

He turned off the car and said to Lin Hongqi before getting out of the car:

"The six pigs each weigh more than 300 kilograms. The price is a few dollars higher than the market price of live pigs. After all, they don't use feed. The meat is fragrant and solid, unlike the pigs on the market that are sold in three months.

, the meat is like adobe, not delicious at all."

Lin Hongqi said:

"Okay, this should be enough for the New Year."

Lin Xu walked over and stuffed cousin Chunsheng with a pack of cigarettes.

Zhang Chunsheng saw it and said immediately:
