After the porcelain basin became fine, I was sent to the wild to do infrastructure construction

The experimental team's problem was successfully solved, and the time has entered the golden autumn of September, which is a bumper harvest.

The weather finally returned to normal, with autumn rain falling at the beginning of the month, which also provided a wave of nourishment to the crop fields as they finally matured.

After that, Xia Ning started the autumn harvest with the villagers.

This month is destined to be extremely busy, even more arduous than the previous summer harvest tasks.

The villagers first dug summer potatoes, then potatoes, then rapeseed flowers, and finally cotton, and that's not all. After this harvest, the villagers planted the second crop of autumn rapeseed. Flowers, followed by sugarcane.

In addition, a series of seasonal vegetables are grown in the village, including radish, cabbage, edamame, rape, eggplant, pepper, etc.

In short, since the beginning of September, the entire base has not stopped, and every day is a busy scene.

It wasn't until around mid-September that Xia Ning took a breather.

Although she does not have to go to the fields to do farm work every day like the villagers, she basically shuttles between the fields every day, mainly coordinating the autumn harvest situation in various regions and helping everyone deal with various problems in a timely manner. Sometimes she will also work with the villagers. , or drive and do transportation work for everyone.

In addition to her, other members of the Song family will also participate in the autumn harvest team whenever they have time. It can be said that the entire family is personally involved in the harvest and is truly integrated into the lives of the people.

Undoubtedly, their behavior has been highly praised and praised by the people of the entire base. For having such a leader and a family, the villagers also feel sincerely lucky and happy in their hearts.

Of course, everyone is even more proud of having such a leader!
After working hard for more than half a month, the crops in the field are finally almost harvested. In the remaining ten days, the main task is to plant vegetables.

Xia Ning did not participate too much in the subsequent autumn planting tasks, because she had more important things to do: pressing rapeseed oil!
The first wave of rapeseed flowers in the village have been harvested and stored in storage. The next step is to squeeze the rapeseed into oil as soon as possible to prevent it from getting damp and spoiling after being left for a long time.

This is Xia Ning's first time trying to squeeze rapeseed oil. When she lived with her grandmother in a rural town, she had seen oil extraction on site many times, but she had never tried it.

Fortunately, they had downloaded some agriculture-related videos on the tablet before, and one of them happened to be about canola seed oil. Combined with what she had seen and heard before, she immediately launched a series of actions.

Xia Ning wants to build a modern rural-style oil pressing workshop. Such a simple workshop is more suitable for the current developing base. Too much mechanization cannot fully adapt to the base.

Such a rural oil press is relatively simple and fast to build, and can be basically completed in three days. Of course, such an old-fashioned oil press does not require too many tools and equipment, as long as the site is spacious enough.

The rest will be gradually improved and improved later.

When building the workshop, Xia Ning also quickly organized a group of people.

In the future, in addition to rapeseed, you can also squeeze peanut oil, camellia oil, etc. Now it is time to learn and practice.

"Can this thing really squeeze out oil?"

“It’s unimaginable~”

At this time, the female relatives of the Song family were watching in the oil pressing workshop, wanting to see with their own eyes what oil pressing was like, because there was no such crop as rapeseed in Dongchu, and what they usually ate was animal oil and soybean oil.

If Xia Ning hadn't popularized it to them, they wouldn't have known that there was such a crop as rapeseed. They were even more curious when they learned that this crop could also produce oil.

"You'll find out just when you wait and see." Xia Ning smiled mysteriously.

Therefore, a group of people stayed in the oil pressing workshop and witnessed the entire oil pressing process. It was not until they saw the yellow oil and water poured into the porcelain jar that everyone believed that this small rapeseed could actually squeeze out oil.

"It's amazing~"

“I didn’t expect that oil extraction comes from this.”

"It's quite interesting." Old Mrs. Song said curiously, "I wonder what this rapeseed oil tastes like when used for cooking?"

"It shouldn't be bad. It smells quite fragrant. It must also be very fragrant when cooking." Mother Song took a wooden spoon and gently stirred the porcelain pot a few times. The whole workshop exuded a strong aroma of cooking. Seed aroma.

"It's really delicious."

"I can't wait to have a taste."

Xia Ning picked up a can of rapeseed oil and shouted, "Let's go home and cook now."

"Let's go!"

All the female relatives happily agreed.

Afterwards, the group returned to the Song family compound and went straight into the kitchen and started making various dishes with rapeseed oil.

**
Six quarters of the unitary hour (06:30 in the evening).

"Why hasn't Shaoqin come back yet?"

Mother Song was looking in the direction of the door and chanting.

"Shaoqin seems to be very busy recently. He goes out early every day during this period." Bai murmured in confusion.

Xu Wanqing quickly agreed, "Auntie, I haven't noticed yet. Shaoqin seems to have come back later than before."

Father Song turned around and asked, "Xiao Ning, is Shao Qin busy with any other research projects recently?"

"I didn't hear what he said. It should still be a hydropower test project, but this experiment is almost coming to an end. I guess there are other new studies."

Xia Ning, who was suddenly named, was also a little confused. Recently, when she was busy making rapeseed oil, she really didn't have a good communication with him for some days, and she only exchanged daily greetings in the morning and evening every day.

After all, the entire Song family is very busy this month. This little exchange between her and Shaoqin is already a lot in this family. You must know that she and other people in the family sometimes don't even talk to each other for a whole day. One sentence.

Tonight’s dinner is also the most complete meal in the past month, and it is still covered in rapeseed oil, because everyone also learned that we squeezed rapeseed oil today and made it at home. It was put into consumption for the first time, so everyone rushed home to eat after hearing the news.

Father Song picked up his chopsticks and said, "Okay, let's eat first without waiting for him."

"Okay, then I'll save some food for Shaoqin."

Xia Ning also agreed with this, but she took the rice bowl and prepared a meal for one person alone. After all, except for Shaoqin, everyone in the family was here, including old people and children. We couldn't let everyone just wait for him. Bar?

"Well, this dish tastes so delicious."

"It's oily. The flavor of the vegetable oil made here is a little different from the oil we had before."

"I feel it tastes much more refreshing than lard."

"Yes, it's delicious."

"Our family will use this rapeseed oil for cooking from now on."

"I think it will work." (End of Chapter)
