Chapter 355: The Wisdom of the Female Supporting Wild Star Farming (15)
Xu Yin and Mrs. Simon distribute welfare to everyone.
After counting, each person can get a cabbage, a radish, and a handful of amaranth.
Xu Yin did not intend to hoard the first batch of crops, but distributed them all to everyone to try while they were fresh.
After tasting the sweetness, I am willing to continue to open up wasteland for her.
Sometimes she couldn't help but think that this seemed to be no different from the landlady in ancient times.
Out of guilt, just give them more food.
After the harvest was finished, there were still dozens of cabbages, a dozen large radishes, and about ten kilograms of amaranth left.
Xu Yin divided it equally between Simon and several people.
"Hero, how do you eat this round lobster dish?" Mrs. Simon didn't know how to cook it either.
Xu Yin thought for a while and simply lit a fire and set up a pot in front of her home, and demonstrated to everyone how to use the fatter parts of insect meat (similar to pork belly) to make dry-cooked cabbage, and how to stew radish with insect ribs.
As for amaranth, it is very simple. Just blanch it in boiling water and mix it with minced garlic. It is a delicious and refreshing appetizer.
Everyone remembered the steps and started doing it clumsily when they got home.
After eating this, my taste buds were captured by the hot pot cabbage.
“This dish is so delicious!”
“I never thought there was anything more suitable for stir-frying insect meat than cabbage! It’s so delicious!”
"This fat white ingredient called radish is also very delicious when stewed!"
"I never thought that I would be able to eat natural ingredients every day in my lifetime. I am so happy!"
"My wonderful sister-in-law, if she knew that I was living so comfortably on the Exile Star, she might regret reporting me in the first place, and maybe even want to report herself."
Xu Yin also tasted the dry-cooked cabbage that she hadn't cooked for a long time. It was good and her hands were not raw.
In other words, the insects and beasts here are very similar to the beef and mutton raised in the vast pastures. They taste particularly delicious. When fried together with the crisp and tender cabbage, the rich aroma of the meat and the fresh aroma of the vegetables are intertwined, which makes your taste buds tantalize.
She couldn't help but want to stock up on more insect meat.
"Brother Hero, what is the name of this natural ingredient that is white, glutinous and has a strange smell?" Kahn picked at the minced garlic in the amaranth and mumbled about the strange smell, but he wanted to pick this one to eat.
Xu Yin said that this is called garlic. It can not only be used as a condiment, but can also be dipped in sweet and sour garlic.
"When the garlic in the field starts to grow, I will soak a jar of sweet and sour garlic for you to try. The taste will be different."
Xu Yin said, throwing two fist-sized pieces of raw garlic.
She discovered that the crops grown on the Exile Star not only took a short time to grow, but were also large in size. They were obviously grown from ordinary seeds, but they were twice as big as ordinary ones.
I couldn't help but feel once again that the barren star soil is as powerful as breath soil. It would be a pity to leave it barren.
So, she continued to mobilize everyone to open up wasteland and cultivate land.
From time to time, I give you some ripe fruits and vegetables as a bonus.
On this day, the watermelons and melons in the melon field were ripe.
Xu Yin asked Kahn to inform everyone and come to her to pick up half a melon after work.
"It's bad, it's bad!" After a while, Kahn ran back sweating profusely and said, "Brother Hero, Andrew got into a fight with someone."
When Xu Yin heard that there was a fight in the land where she hired them to open up wasteland for supplies, Xu Yin became angry, put down what she was doing, and followed Kahn to the scene.
"Fight? Okay! Defeat me first! I'll let you have a good fight." Xu Yin said, smoothing her sleeves.
The two people who were fighting immediately became as quiet as chickens.
Who dares to do this?
Who can beat a person who can kill a giant beast with one punch?
Xu Yin glanced at everyone coldly, and finally, her eyes fell on the two people fighting: "Tell me, what's going on? I produce natural ingredients and hired you to open up wasteland, not to let you fight."
"He slandered me! I was so angry that I took action." Andrew raised his head, looked directly at Xu Yin, and then looked away, "He said that I secretly hid the supply package and you didn't get it. But the last few times, I
I only receive one at a time, and after I receive it, I come to open up wasteland. Pieri can vouch for me."
"Yes, yes! I can testify." Pierre nodded, "I go to get the supply package with Andrew every time. He really only took one, not more."
"He's the fastest runner and he didn't get more, so who got it? It's impossible that the supervision department missed the issue, right?" The thin black boy who was fighting with Andrew wiped the corners of his bleeding mouth and said angrily,
"Hero, Andrew took your supply package and wants to earn natural ingredients from you. I can't stand it."
Xu Yin wanted to help her forehead.
This bug hurt her a lot.
"Actually, I received the supply package." Xu Yin pretended to take out a previous supply package from the "space button" in front of them, shook it and put it back, "I'm too busy, I'll go back after receiving it."
I'm working, so it's normal that you didn't see me."
Kahn felt strange and opened his mouth to say something, but his elder brother covered his mouth.
Xu Yin continued: "The supervision office is based on chip statistics, so there will be no leakage. We are very orderly now and will not take more. Don't let this trivial matter ruin the peace."
Then he changed the subject: "Let's take a break and have some watermelon!"
"Here comes the watermelon!"
Mrs. Simon directed the man and came to the scene carrying a basket of watermelons.
"What kind of melon is a watermelon?"
"Melons grown in the west?"
"Are there also east melons, pumpkins, and north melons?"
Xu Yin was delighted when she heard this, and while cutting and dividing the melon with a watermelon knife, she explained: "You can also call it 'water melon', because it is full of water and very thirst-quenching."
The person who ate the watermelon opened his eyes wide and said, "It's so delicious!"
"This is watermelon? I declare that it will be my favorite from now on!"
"Lao Pi, every time you eat a natural ingredient, you say it is your favorite. How many favorites do you have?"
"Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed.
Pierre also smiled and said: "Whoever tastes delicious is my favorite!"
Xu Yin tossed the melon: "Then try this again."
After a while, Pieri shouted in surprise: "No wonder this is called melon, it is sweeter than watermelon! I declare..."
"Hahahaha! Old Pi, please stop announcing it. If you continue to announce it, your favorites will rebel collectively!"
An unpleasant experience is eliminated by sharing delicious food.
Xu Yin discovered that from ancient times to the present, from the earth to the stars, the thing that can best shorten the distance between people is food.
It seems that it’s time to show the true charm of farming - plant some rice and wheat.
A dining table without rice and noodles is ultimately imperfect.
It just so happened that Andrew's group had already cleared the wasteland near Kenghuan Lake. Xu Yin used a military shovel to dig out a canal and divert water from Kenghuan Lake into the rice fields for irrigation.
Calculate the time, plant the seedlings now and transplant the rice seedlings, just in time for harvesting before the cold season comes.
While she was busy working, she was thinking about what work to do in the cold season this year - she planned to use the entire water tanker. Otherwise, it would be too time-consuming and laborious to water the water manually every time.
Since I was not sure which type of rice was more suitable for growing in the soil here, I simply planted two acres of rice.

Today I checked in for another "first time in my life" - riding in a trailer.
Thank you to the tow truck master who picked me up on the road in the scorching sun and helped me tow my car that was out of gas to the gas station... It was the first time in my life that I was riding in a tow truck as a co-pilot... ┭┮﹏┭┮...
Everyone must take a look at the fuel gauge when going out from now on. I actually paid attention to it two days ago, but in the past two days, I was so busy with so many things that I forgot...o(╥﹏╥)o
