Chapter 95: Building a Small Kitchen
If they were asked to pay too much, they would feel uncomfortable, and if they paid too little, Wen Xi would suffer. After all, Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue earned it with their own labor, so what could the three of them give in exchange?
We can't let them eat and drink for free every day, right?
"Xiaoxi, let's go find Captain Qian now. We'll leave the food with you for now." Tian Shengnan said.
Although she really wanted to eat with Wenxi, she couldn't bring herself to ask for it. It would be fine once or twice, but if they had to eat three meals a day here, Wenxi would have to pay much more than them.
"Why would you worry about leaving the food with us? Go ahead and don't worry!"
After Song Lan and the other two turned around and left, Wen Xi went back to the kitchen to continue eating dinner. She could lend the kitchen to Song Lan and the others later, but she would not invite them to have dinner together because she didn't know that something like this would happen to Song Lan and the others. She only cooked for three people and there was no way to feed six people.
Song Lan and the other two went to Captain Qian's home and told him what had happened at the educated youth center. They also asked Captain Qian to build a small kitchen next to the kitchen at the educated youth center, and the three of them jointly contributed the money.
Since they paid for it themselves, Captain Qian naturally didn't say much. He just asked them to prepare the iron pots and he would bring people to repair them tomorrow so that they could have a kitchen to cook as soon as possible.
After the three of them came back, they asked Wenxi to use the kitchen. Wenxi and her friends had already finished dinner, so they lent them the pot they used for cooking because they were using another pot to boil water!
Wen Xi stood up and gave the stove to them. He watched them cook and asked curiously, "What did Captain Qian say? Did he agree to help you build a small kitchen?"
Tian Shengnan nodded happily, "I agree. I'll go over and help us build a small kitchen tomorrow. If we hire a few more people, it should be completed in one day. We'll have our own kitchen in two days. We'll wait until everyone has used the kitchen before we use it. After all, the kitchen at the educated youth camp is shared, not their private property."
Wen Xi nodded. They had a plan in mind and were not running around like a headless fly, so she didn't worry about it anymore.
After the water boiled, Wen Xi, Shen Jiaojiao, and Jiang Yue took turns to wash up. Song Lan and the other two were no longer children, so they did not need Wen Xi to stand by and supervise them.
Tian Shengnan and her friends made dumpling soup, which was quickly prepared. After they were full, the three of them took some food back home. After all, they still had to eat before the small kitchen was repaired! The rest of the food would be taken back when the small kitchen was ready.
At six o'clock, Zhao Yuanyuan and Zhao Huihui came to class. After two hours of class, the two went back, and Wen Xi also closed the door and went back to his room to sleep.
Thursday was the day Wenxi had a deal with the black market boss, so on Thursday morning, Wenxi cooked breakfast before dawn and then set off.
She is serious about saving money.
In the original text, the heroine later bought a lot of houses and land and became a veritable rich woman. She did not expect to be that rich, and was content with a small fortune. So she had to save more money now, so that she could buy a few houses when she returned to the city in two years. Even if she did not have any great abilities in the future, it should not be difficult for her to be a small landlady, right?
After taking the "Rejuvenating Pill" and going to the black market to trade, Wenxi asked for some tickets, half of the money and half of the old items. He still had plenty of time after coming out, so Wenxi went to the pork stall to queue up to buy meat.
Although I still have pig trotters and bones at home that were bought when the team slaughtered the New Year pig, meat is quite rare these days. I'll buy more if I can. Anyway, I have a place to store it.
Wen Xi, with a man's face, went to the pork stall again and again to buy meat. In total, she bought fifteen pig's trotters, fifty kilograms of ribs, twenty-four tube bones, and four sets of pig offal. She didn't want to buy the whole set, but only wanted to buy pig stomach and liver which were easy to handle. However, the stall did not sell them separately, so she had to buy the whole set.
But fortunately it was not expensive, so many things only cost a few dozen yuan, enough for the three sisters to eat for a long time, very cost-effective. Wen Xi is rich now, naturally do not want to treat herself and her sisters badly.
Wenxi negotiated with the black market boss and got some food coupons and meat coupons. When they bought the meat and left the town, they passed by a state-owned restaurant and went in to pack twelve large meat buns. The main reason was that there were three of them, and ten meat buns would not be enough to share, so they bought twelve.
She is a very fair person and will never treat people around her unfairly.
After returning, Wen Xi took out a pair of pig offal and gave them to Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue to clean. She used the excuse of going up the mountain to dig wild vegetables. She first went to the foot of the mountain to collect the eels that Zhao Zhiping had left there, and then went straight to the waterfall.
Wenxi came to the waterfall and first collected all the fish in the fish and shrimp nets and ground traps. Then he put earthworms in them and then threw the fish and shrimp nets and ground traps into the water.
Afterwards, Wenxi found a place with shallow water, took out the pig offal, pig legs, bones and other things she bought in the morning, and soaked them in the water. Then she went into the water wearing her boots and started to wash them.
After cleaning, package them and put them in the system warehouse. When you want to eat, just take them out and cook them. It is very simple and convenient.
Wenxi bent over and carefully washed these things in the water. The fat from the pork floated away, attracting a large number of fish to circle around Wenxi. Wenxi was afraid that the fish would eat the pig offal, so he quickly put the pig offal into the system warehouse, then took out the casting net that he had signed in before and cast it directly, and all the fish that wanted to grab the pig offal were caught in the net.
The heavy fishing net was impossible to lift ashore by one's own strength, so Wenxi put the fishing net directly into the system warehouse. After taking out all the fish, he went into the water to clean the pig offal. However, it didn't take long for a large number of fish to be attracted. Wenxi didn't expect that there would be so many fish in the river under the waterfall in the valley.
Wenxi had no choice but to take out a wooden basin, fetch water and use it to wash the pig offal. However, he also put a pair of pig offal in the river to attract fish. Every time the number of fish increased, Wenxi would cast a net to collect them.
Wenxi stayed at the waterfall for five hours before she cleaned the pig offal and trotters. She used the chopping board and kitchen knife she had signed out before to cut many things into easy-to-eat sizes. She also chopped the trotters and ribs into pieces, and split the leg bones in half with a bone-cutting knife to make it easier to eat the bone marrow inside.
By the time everything was done, more than five hours had passed.
Wenxi collected the fish in the fish and shrimp nets and ground traps, and also returned the fish and shrimp nets and ground traps to the system warehouse.
