Chapter 170 Fragrant Dried Sweet Potatoes

After the four people finished their work, they borrowed two two-wheeled vehicles from the tool room and took all their food out of the granary.

Most of the sweet potatoes given to them have sprouted and they don’t look very good.

The scorekeeper who was responsible for distributing food to them was a little embarrassed. Each person was given about 10 kilograms more, but they were basically sprouted sweet potatoes.

A few people had no complaints, so what was there to say?
It's useless to say more, the people in this village are good enough, at least it can ensure that they will not starve to death.

While waiting for them to bring back all the sweet potatoes and brown rice, several people tidied up a small compartment, which was also the last compartment, and it was tidied up.

The most important thing is to have a ventilated window, put stones underneath, and put wooden boards to isolate the humid air.

The small cubicle where they lived couldn't put anything at all. After putting away the food, half of the space was left for them to put the clothes they brought.

The four people discussed it and concluded that the food would be enough for them to eat until the next food distribution. It would be more convenient for the four of them to cook together.

The main reason is that they have no cooking place here, only a place that was used to cook pig food.

Usually cooking is very troublesome.

After several people discussed it, they looked at the sweet potatoes and selected some with larger sprouts. They dug out the pig trough from the corner, inserted a stick from the middle, and put water underneath.

"In this way, the sweet potatoes can sprout, and these teeth can be used for cooking, and the taste is okay." The speaker was Professor Bai, the agriculture professor among the four.

There is a small open space in their yard, but they have just arrived and have no time to tidy it up.

Bai Lian'er never thought about growing vegetables, so she didn't take care of the yard much.

That's why Professor Bai came up with this method. When he was cleaning up the house, he saw the pig trough that was not used before. As long as he sprinkled some water on it before working every day, he would soon be able to eat sweet potato vines.

After the tender shoots of the sweet potato vine appear, they will grow very quickly. As long as you pay some attention, you will be able to eat vegetables from time to time.

In this situation, I don’t want to eat well. At least I can have a dish on the table to eat with the rice.

After a few people packed it up, they were faced with another problem when looking at these sweet potatoes.

"How are you going to eat all these sweet potatoes? They won't last long, they've all sprouted. If you keep them any longer, you'll get diarrhea if you eat too much."

Sprouted sweet potatoes are slightly toxic. If you eat a little, it may not matter, but if you eat too much, it will cause problems.

"My family has a specialty called dried sweet potatoes. This kind of dried sweet potatoes can be stored for at least half a year, but the preparation is a little troublesome."

The speaker was Professor Li. He is from Gan Province. People there have been eating dried sweet potatoes since they were young. This kind of dried sweet potatoes is considered a specialty there.

This stuff is not only very sweet, but also very tough. When you bite it, it becomes soft and chewy, and tastes very good.

If the sweet potatoes are sweet enough, the dried sweet potatoes will be particularly delicious and are a favorite snack among local children.

Although he had never done it, he had heard how to do it next to his parents when he was studying. He briefly explained the method, and the other three people suddenly looked at Professor Li with some suspicion.

Professor Li looked a little embarrassed. In fact, when he saw these sweet potatoes, he thought of dried sweet potatoes, but he thought about what other people had other ideas, so he didn't speak.

"It's actually quite simple. Although I haven't done it before, I have seen how people at home do it before." Teacher Bai looked at the sweet potatoes and nodded.

"There's nothing wrong with what Professor Li said. It's just that we don't have those pots. Who can we ask to borrow them? We have so many sweet potatoes, so I guess we should use a big steamer. Does anyone have such a thing?"

As soon as Professor Bai said these words, the eyes of several other people suddenly darkened.

Now that their status is sensitive, they don't know much about the people in the village. Even if they take the initiative to talk to them, no one may be willing to pay attention to them.

Several people sighed helplessly. If they had not encountered such a thing before, why would they worry about a big pot?

"Forget it, let's ask the captain tomorrow. This captain seems to be able to talk. At least he doesn't treat us like others."

Originally, they were excited to make dried sweet potatoes, but now, they only have a broken earthen pot as a pot. The reality is so cruel, they have nothing.

Even if you have a brain, no one is willing to listen to the knowledge in your head.

Things are unpredictable. When I was studying, I never thought that because of my knowledge, they would end up in such a situation.

On the second day, they finished their work tiredly. The two older people went to find the captain, while the two younger people stayed at home to cook.

Professor Liu and Professor Hu found Gu Guofu anxiously. As soon as they arrived at the door of his house, they saw Gu Guofu smoking a cigarette in the yard, looking very leisurely.

There was still smoke coming from the kitchen. It must be that someone at home was cooking.

Gu Guofu was a little surprised when he saw them coming.

He didn't say anything at all, but simply asked: "What's the matter with you two coming here? Your status is sensitive now. If you are fine, try to stay where you live. If there is someone patrolling above, you will probably have a hard time."

These people in the village have not arrived, and there is no one in the village to take care of them. Every once in a while, red silk people will come to check. If they find that they are living a good life, the people in the village will not be good.

"You should take it easy in whatever you do. People in our village will not deliberately embarrass you, but your own identities are sensitive and you should be clear about it."

The two professors nodded repeatedly and made their intentions clear.

"It's like this. I want to ask who in our village has a larger steamer. We were given too many sweet potatoes and couldn't keep them, so we thought about using them to dry them."

Gu Guofu was a little confused after hearing this: "What is that? Why have you never heard of it?"

The two professors briefly repeated what Professor Li said, and Gu Guofu was thoughtful.

But he still reacted and said: "Not many people in our village have the big steamer you want. I need to think about it first."

Gu Guofu thought about the villagers carefully, and suddenly thought of something.

"I remember, Axue was steaming steamed buns at home some time ago. Did you make a big steamer? Why don't you go over and ask."

After listening, the two professors nodded repeatedly and headed in the direction pointed by Gu Guofu.
