Chapter 154 Reporting, calmly
"Of course, it's not a military uniform and I can't change it, and it's new."
"Yes, yes, son, this is a good thing." Li Aimin is a veteran and has a special affection for military uniforms.
“As long as you like it, you can wear it as a coat after next spring.”
“Hahaha, that’s right!”
Although Li Aimin smiled, there were tears in the corners of his eyes when he touched the military uniform.
Probably thinking of his comrades, but unfortunately many of them have no way to come back.
"Hey, put these clothes away! Let's start eating." Li Jiayi quickly diverted his attention.
"Oh! Yes, let's eat."
After that, he carried his clothes and shoes into the back room, and quickly washed his hands and came out, and also washed his face.
The dinner was very sumptuous. It can be said that there was never a time when his family was not sumptuous.
"By the way, Dad! What do you want on Sunday the day after tomorrow?" Li Jiayi asked during the meal.
"It's okay! After a hard day's rest, I plan to have a good rest at home."
Li Jiayi shook his head at this time and said: "Then you may not be able to rest."< br>
"Oh! What do you mean?" Li Aimin asked doubtfully.
"It's like this. I ordered a wild boar from a hunter and will deliver it on Sunday. So it's impossible for you to rest because you have to help Uncle Liao clean it up."
"Wild boar?"< br>
"Yes!" Li Jia nodded.
“How big is the wild boar?” Li Aimin asked.
Li Jia thought for a while and said: "About three hundred kilograms!"
"It's so big, I mean, son, such a big wild boar, our family won't be able to finish it even if it lasts until the Chinese New Year!" Ye Xin said at this time.
"Mom, I don't plan to keep them all to eat. I plan to keep only the pig head, pig trotters, ribs and pig offal, and sell the rest to others."
"Sell to others. ?" Ye Xin frowned.
"Well! If the people in the courtyard want to buy it, we can sell part of it to the people in the courtyard, and other courtyards will also sell it. Anyway, we won't keep it."
In fact, he has kept a lot. Let’s not talk about pigs in the water, but there are a lot of ribs and pig heads.
"Son, don't you save some for the New Year?" Li Aimin asked.
“No, it’s still early before the Chinese New Year! If we do it then, our family will still be short of meat.”
“That’s true.”
“ The ribs are left to be stewed, and the pig heads and pig guts are braised by Uncle Liao. Let’s eat them together.”
“Okay,” Li Aimin nodded.
"By the way, son, I want to keep the lard fat this time. I plan to make more oil so that it can be used during the Chinese New Year."
"Okay, mom, you can take care of it yourself. You can tell Uncle Liao later. Just one word.”
"Yeah!"
"By the way, son, meat is in very short supply now. How much do you plan to sell it for per pound?"
Li Jia glanced at his father and said, "Sell it. One dollar and five.”
Li Aimin nodded and said: "The price is quite right. It's not expensive, but it's not cheap either."
"Actually, the main reason is that I don't want people to gossip, and also because our family's life is very good."
< br>“Are you trying to block other people’s mouths?”
Li Jiayi curled his lips and said, “Why should I block other people’s mouths? I just want to reduce some trouble.”
"Okay!"
After dinner, I went to take a sauna, and Liao Kai happened to come over to join me in the sauna. Li Jiayi told him about the wild boar.
Of course Liao Kai has no problem! And he was happy to help, because in that case, there would be his favorite pig intestines.
Yes, Liao Kai likes to eat pig intestines. The taste is a bit strong, but there are a few people who don’t like it.
Li Jiayi is also one of them! Especially what Liao Kai did, let alone that.
No words for a night.
After dinner the next morning, Li Jiayi ran out again.
I won’t sell pork or buy anything today. Instead, I will go to Xizhimen to smash ice.
At the end of the day, Li Jiayi smashed a lot of ice and put it into the still space.
From the time he started smashing ice to now, he no longer knows how much ice he has smashed. Anyway, there is a lot in the still space.
Of course, these are not for eating, but for cooling down in the summer.
There were also a lot of ice cubes to eat, especially ice frozen from the mineral water in the pool. Although not as many as smashed, there were still a lot of them.
The rest is the ice frozen in Lingquan water that he keeps for himself to eat. There is a lot of it now. If he only uses it alone, he will not be able to use it up in decades.
But he knew that this was impossible. It would be better if the second sister didn't know about it. If the second sister knew about it, it would probably be more than enough for both of him.
You must know that the second sister loves popsicles the most. When summer comes, she will eat them basically every day.
Sunday arrived in the blink of an eye. My parents didn't go to work today, so Liao Kai started packing his tools early in the morning.
This tool has not been used for a while, so he needs to polish it, and make some preparations, such as borrowing a large pot from the next door yard, and boiling water.
As soon as Li Jia finished breakfast, he drove his small sleigh and left the yard.
Soon he arrived outside the city, then took out a particularly large wild boar from the space and put it on the small sleigh.
Yes, there is a place to store things behind the seat of the small sled, and the space is not very big.
The width is about 50 centimeters and the length is 80 centimeters. Originally, he planned to sit alone or something.
Unexpectedly, it would be used to carry wild boars now. It was impossible to put them all down, but he didn't need to put them all down! This place is at least much bigger than the back seat of a bicycle! The back seat of a bicycle can be carried, and the same goes for this thing.
The middle was also put up, with the two ends hanging down, and Li Jiayi also found a rope to tie it up.
Fortunately, there is snow on the ground, otherwise it would be difficult to pull it back with such weight.
Before nine o'clock, Li Jiayi drove the sleigh back to the courtyard.
At this time, there were already many people in the courtyard, all of whom were neighbors.
In fact, when Li Aimin and Liao Kai brought the big pot from the next courtyard in, the people in the courtyard knew what was going on.
No, now we are all watching the excitement in the backyard. It would be better if it can do some good.
It is a pity that it is impossible to blind them and take advantage of Li Jiayi.
“Oh my God, such a big wild boar.”
"Yes! This wild boar weighs two to three hundred kilograms, right?"
"I can't help but think that it is so big, it weighs at least three hundred kilograms."
"That's right, I It feels bigger than the wild boar we shared in the yard last time.”
“Yes! It’s indeed bigger.”
Onlookers saw Li Jiayi carrying a big wild boar. Come in and the chatter begins.
It's a pity that Li Jiayi ignored them at all and didn't even say a word.
The main reason was that he didn't meet the people he needed to say hello to, because none of the people he wanted to say hello came over to watch the fun.
You can also see a person’s character from here.
Let's put it this way, these people who come out to watch the fun are basically people who want to take advantage of it.
As for those who didn't want to take advantage of him, they didn't come to watch the fun at all.
At least no one from Aunt Cheng's family, Aunt Xu's family, or Sun Laizi's family came out, not even their children.
"Jiayi, this wild boar is big enough!" Liao Kai saw him coming back and quickly ran over to take a look.
"It's not small. How about Uncle Liao, is it okay?"
"No problem."
After finishing speaking, he said to the two young people who were preparing Shouted: "Come here quickly and carry the wild boar over."
"Okay, Master."
These two young men are none other than the two apprentices who came to help last time, but they are now Liao Kai's apprentices.
Who among the apprentices in the canteens of the wool spinning factory would not want to be Liao Kai's apprentice.
But Liao Kai identified the two of them, mainly because they have good character.
I guess Liao Kai told them when he went to work yesterday and asked the two of them to help.
The wild boar weighing nearly 400 kilograms was not easy to lift. In the end, even the eldest and second sisters came to help before the wild boar could be carried.
Of course, Li Jiayi did his best, pulling two pig ears and using up all his strength.
Originally Li Jiayi thought he was going to help too! Now that Liao Kai's two apprentices are here, there will be nothing wrong with him.
It was okay, but he was still watching.
Even the second sister is helping to light the fire, because she knows that this is her own wild boar.
If you want to eat delicious food, you have to help with the work.
After more than an hour of watering and shaving, I finally got the pig hair clean.
The next step is to open the intestines and break up the belly, and then separate the bones and flesh, except of course the ribs.
If it were in the past, the meat on the ribs would have been cleanly removed, but these ribs were kept for home consumption, so how could they be removed cleanly?
While everyone was busy working, Director Xu came in from outside with Officer Niu and another officer.
Seeing Director Xu, Li Jiayi frowned.
This is not to say that he is dissatisfied with Director Xu, but because he knows that someone must have reported it to the street office, otherwise Director Xu would not come.
What he didn’t understand was that he was a wild boar! Wild boar bought from someone else.
Even if someone reports it, Director Xu will not come over after knowing what happened!
"Director Xu, why are you here?" Li Jiayi ran over and asked.
If there was no one, he would definitely call Aunt Xu, but now that there are so many people here, he could only call Director Xu.
"Jiayi! I heard that you brought back a big wild boar?" Director Xu asked with a smile.
"Yes! I bought it from a hunter. There seems to be no problem with it, right?"
"There is no problem. Anyone who has the ability can buy it, as long as he can buy it back." "
Although Director Xu said this to Li Jiayi, the underlying meaning behind his words was to tell everyone that as long as you have the ability to buy it back, there will be no problem.
"Then come here..."
"Plus one! That's right. You also know that since the heavy snowfall, the meat factory has no meat, and our street office is also the same, so I want to ask I want to ask you, with all this meat, can you help our street get some food?”
“Director Xu, is that why you’re here?”
“What else?”
< br>“Ugh!”
"How about it? Can you give us some even distribution? Don't worry, it will be as much as you want. You will never suffer a loss."
"Yes, we will spend money to buy it!" said another officer.
PS: Please recommend monthly tickets! Thanks!
