Start farming in another world, the master of the plane has assets worth hundreds of billions

Wen Xia smiled, first put the shells and their contents into the snow and froze them, and then started eating dinner.

After a busy day, everyone is hungry.

The pig's trotters were those of wild boars. There was not much fat and they were very chewy. She gnawed on two more without wasting the bones. She put them aside to be fed to the wild beasts in the back mountains later.

She never dared to underestimate those things. At present, except for the bones of star beasts, they couldn't bite them. Ordinary bones couldn't stop them at all.

"Ah!" After having a full stomach, Wen Xia stretched and put away the pot. Seeing that it was still early, she started to deal with other ingredients.

Xiao Huihui almost kept lying next to her, her eyes following the bone knife in her hand.

Pickled peppers are a very important part of Sichuan cuisine. Whether it is pickled pepper chicken feet or pickled pepper bamboo shoots, they are all delicious snacks to pass the time. If the pickled peppers are well developed, they not only have a spicy taste, but also have a very long shelf life. They will not go bad after being stored for ten years.

Commonly used ingredients for making pickled peppers include ginger, garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, rock sugar and salt, in addition to the main ingredient wild pepper. She now has all the other raw materials except rock sugar, which is difficult to obtain.

Bingtang only asked Wu Tianyi to buy [-] yuan of jaggery when he was in Wutai Village. One piece was the size of a fist and was placed in a large red plastic bag.

The containers - the thermos buckets - have been washed and dried, and the wild peppers and other peppers have also been cleaned.

In warm summer, light the stove, put clean water in a large pot, bring to a boil over high heat, add peppercorns and rock sugar, then add salt. When the taste is salty enough, stir and turn off the heat, then set aside to cool.

While waiting, remove the stems of various peppers and slice the ginger and garlic. When everything is ready, put all the materials into a clean thermal bucket, close the lid and seal.

Generally, pickled peppers are marinated for about a month, and they are ready for consumption when the color turns dark. They can be stored in a cool and dry place.

The thermos bucket is very big, and it is only less than half full of more than a hundred kilograms of chili peppers and seasonings.

By the time this process was completed, it was already very late.

Wen Xia tidied up and asked Xiao Huihui to stay vigil outside. She climbed into bed, covered herself with a thick quilt and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, after eating pumpkin porridge and fried pancakes, and feeling warm all over, she began to study the things Russell and the others had sent yesterday.

The things were brought in and thawed in advance. The freeze-dried fish had melted, revealing its colorful scales.

Wen Xia took out a bone knife and dissected one of them, and found that the brains of these fish were very big, but the bodies only took up a small part. The digestive organs were very small, and there were still the remains of glowing plants in the stomach.

No, Russell and the others clearly said yesterday that no fish would dare to eat this plant.

Wen Xia took out the water plants melted in the water stall. They said it was a water stall, but in fact it was more like transparent watering. It was extremely sticky when mixed with the lake water, but it could be washed clean by just rinsing it with water.

She picked up a piece of waterweed, and a pungent odor filled her nose, much like the smell of some kind of chemical, mixed with the spicy smell of chili peppers.

"Woof woof!" Xiaobai leaned closer and vomited on the spot, spitting out the morning pumpkin porridge.

"...Stay away by yourself." Wen Xia pushed a few small ones away, threw the water plants on the wooden board, took a wooden stick in his hand from a distance, and looked through the water plants.

The whole thing is a long aquatic plant, but inside it is actually a string of small bubble-like water droplets. The water droplets are bonded together by mucus. As the water evaporates, the mucus becomes thicker and thicker, making it look like a dry plant. Dried vegetables also become a solid state.

After the fire quickly evaporated, the soft water plants turned into hard pieces of wood, and the appearance changed from green to dark green.

The water drop-like particles inside are still there, but they are just a little shriveled up.

Wen Xia pinched the shriveled water plant and tried to lift it up, only to find that the entire board was being carried upward.

Similar to what I thought yesterday, this kind of mucus seems to be a natural glue, just like there are many plants on Blue Star that produce fruits with silky mucus.

Her eyes lit up and she came to the big shell again. The first water stall inside had dried up. A small fish and weeds that she hadn't picked up in time were stuck in the mucus and solidified.

Try roasting it with fire. Because it is naturally watered, the glue will slowly change from transparent green to black, and gradually turn into a shriveled ball, like a rubber ball that has lost its water. Ash.

Tested with water again, after soaking for several hours, the transparent green glue is still strong.

"This thing is very useful. If you guessed it right, this can be used to replace glass, and can even be used as an adhesive!" Wen Xia said firmly, looking at Xiao Huihui who was specially called and looked confused after hearing her words. Russell said with a serious expression: "I want a lot of this kind of waterweed and this kind of baker. Bring me as many as you can. I want to do an experiment. I will ask Xiao Huihui and the others to help you."

"Boss Wen, don't worry, I'll let you know when I get back later. But, Boss Wen, do you know what this little fish does?" Russell nodded repeatedly, knowing that the aquatic plants and shells might be useful, and he was very happy. Cast your curious eyes on the colorful fish.

"I haven't seen the specific function of this thing... I remember you said that these fish never grow big, and the biggest ones can only be this size, right?" Wen Xia said, "I broke a fish, and there wasn't much meat. It's intolerant of food and has a big head and a small body, so if there are any alive ones, you can bring them back to me, and I might have a chance to verify them in the future."

"Hey, don't worry, I'll go back soon!" After Russell said that, he turned around and left with a smile.

Behind him, Xiao Huihui and Xiao Bai followed him to the lake in the back mountain to find out.

Wen Xia was not idle either. He opened a set of camera balls and controlled the black ball to enter the water through the hole in the glacial lake.

At first, the water surface was filled with condensed ice. It may be due to previous man-made forces that caused the ice to break and float under the water surface, and then tend to condense again as the temperature drops.

Ice is not pure water or ice condensed from snow. It contains a lot of impurities and can be broken by external force. It eventually takes on the shape of a long, needle-like water chestnut. There are also these at the North and South Poles of Blue Star. It is very lethal. Be careful and you'll get hurt.

The water is still transparent and light blue. It is different from the scenes in the previous lakes. There are snowfish here, but the number is very small. There are no predatory fish in the middle. At the bottom, there are very few luminous jade stones, and most of them are It's the kind of aquatic plant that Russell brought back with its own luminous brightness.

There are no other fish among the aquatic plants, only this small colorful fish swimming in the middle. Different from what Russell said yesterday that "no fish dares to eat", these small colorful fish are eating these sticky water plants wantonly. The fish mouths take in the water droplets inside, and then spit out a cloud of turbidity. of mucus. It should be natural glue.

Under the water, apart from the various silts left by no one's intervention for a long time, there are only a few ordinary aquatic plants, and there are not many other fish species. It seems that there is not much need for development.

Continuing to walk towards the edge, you can see a place with gulu blisters, where no fish stay. On the other side, there is the place where Russell and the others dug, which is one-third of the depth of the lake. Now it is blocked by a regular artificial ice wall, with some water flowing through it, and ignorant fish hanging around.

The voices of people outside could gradually be heard on the surveillance screen. The camera ball surfaced. Looking down, Russell had already greeted a group of men and women and was preparing to continue construction at the location across the ice wall.

"In addition to looking for shells this time, we also need to find some live small fish and a lot of aquatic plants! I looked and there is a place with dense growth not far from where we are digging. Let's start from here!" Russell After saying that, he raised the bone knife and shouted, "Let's do it!"

"it is good!"

"Hey!"

……

The lake is surrounded by ice. Although there are bone knives, everyone is concerned about the preciousness and rarity of the shells, so they hold back their movements and work slower.

Wen Xia waited for three days before receiving the things he wanted.

She was currently processing the freshly harvested vegetables. Those that could be dried were hung on fences and special wood, and the excess were given to the villagers. Even though the entire yard is filled with these yummy vegetables, there is still a steady stream of vegetables ripening in the vegetable garden.

All kinds of fruit trees are already blooming, and it won’t be long before I can eat the fruits.

In the past three days, she also cut out the huge snowfish she got back, removed the gills and internal organs, and made it into cured fish with white wine and salt mixed with spices. She hung it under the eaves of the thatched house. It's like a giant fish lamp, but it doesn't emit light.

"Boss Wen, is the snowfish you process under the eaves made in the same way as bacon?" Kamei came here with the villagers today, firstly to exchange vegetables for the villagers to eat, and secondly to watch the bustling scene. experience.

"Yes, but I don't have a lot of salt and wine in the raw materials here, so I can't exchange them for you. I'm sorry." Wen Xia stood up and pointed to the various vegetables dried behind him, "If you plant them on a large scale in the future, , you can use heat to dry vegetables if you can’t finish them, or you can freeze them in the snow and defrost them when you want to eat them.”

Unlike her here, there is no sun or ice, so conditions can only be created artificially.

The other villagers looked at the plants drying on various logs and were very jealous. Although the plants at home have grown up, they must save seeds for the next round of planting.

However, the villagers only looked at it and then looked away.

Russell took a few steps forward, pointed to the huge pieces of bread he had brought back, and got down to business, "Boss Wen, these are the things you want, as well as aquatic plants and live fish, they are all in there."

Several beakers were filled with ice water, and there were swimming fish, mud on the bottom, and glowing aquatic plants.

Although he wanted to use these things for experiments, Wen Xia didn't take theirs for nothing. "New vegetables just happened to be ripe. I will give you some in exchange for these things. When there are results, I will ask Xiaobai and the others to call you." .”

She went to the yard to pick some large winter melons and pumpkins and handed them over. She briefly explained how to eat them, and then asked someone to help drag Baker to the edge of the farmland and sent them away.

"Why are there black and white fish?" Wen Xia bent down and rummaged through the shells. The colorful fish inside were colorful, some were black and white, some were blue and yellow, but without exception, they were all swimming in the water plants next to them. It seems that he is afraid of too bright light from the outside world.

"I hope I can feed them." This aquatic plant is currently confirmed to have a precise function, but these small fish are not yet clear. Wen Xia likes to think further and keep it first, maybe it can be used later.

Be prepared.

She did not put these aquatic plants and fish into the farmland, but first walked around the edge of the farmland to confirm that the seedlings were growing healthily and that the various small fry inside were accustomed to the water temperature and were energetic enough. Using a hoe made of bones, he chose a location near the stream and started digging a hole at a distance of one meter.

Long periods of light exposure are not suitable.

She has no control over the water temperature and can only let these small fish adapt on their own.

The new fish pit is about a square size of four meters by four meters, with a depth of less than one meter. Dig some silt from the farmland and fill it with soil. Then transplant half of these strange luminous aquatic plants and take out the remaining half. Place in water and wait for later use.

None of the small fish were left behind. First, gradually add water to the original baker to warm it up, then pour some ice and snow into the pit, and finally add water. When the temperatures in the two places are about the same, pour the fish into the water pit. .

In order to block too much light, fold a few branches and fix them a few times, and lay them over a corner.

As soon as the venue was fixed, the fish ran wildly into the shaded corner and hid among the aquatic plants inside. You can still see the various reflections of their fish tails.

The sky has darkened. Xiao Huihui and the others have been out for a long time and haven't come back yet.

Wen Xia didn't think about cooking, but filled the baker with water and soaked it first, then covered it with a baker, took out the water plants that had been reserved before, and spread the thick green transparent liquid inside between the openings until it was in contact with each other. The entire lid is glued, so don't worry about it for now.

Everything will be resolved with time.

When the villagers returned home, they excitedly talked about the new food preparation knowledge they had learned from Boss Wen, and then gathered in a circle in the warm cave to eat sweet vegetable water from the stone bowl.

"This is pumpkin, so sweet! Sweeter than deep-water fish!"

"I heard this is winter melon, but why is it so hard on the outside? It tastes better on the inside."

Kamei heard it funny, covered his mouth and looked at the man, smiling and said: "That's because this winter melon is too precious, we didn't peel it, doesn't it taste very good, don't waste it."

Ah Wei nodded repeatedly, "What grandma said is that the food at Boss Wen's place is delicious. I don't know when we will be able to eat the crops we grow."
