Agriculture Idol

Chapter 56 Come to the pot soon ([-])
The slaughterhouse in the town has just been completely rebuilt in the past two years, so that Li Chengxin didn't recognize it when he arrived at the door.

The bloody slaughter scene that could be seen in the pork shop at the door is no longer visible. It has been replaced by a brand new building. The first floor is entirely covered with glass windows. Through the windows, you can see the neat pork counter inside.

Originally, it was almost the time of Chinese New Year. Although the slaughterhouse is not as convenient as the butcher shop in the town, there should be many people who need to buy a lot of pork to come here to buy meat.However, due to the huge increase in meat prices in recent years, the early morning time for large-scale imports and shipments has been missed, and there are few people here.

Following the sign at the door, several people planned to go up the stairs at the back of the building to the second floor to find the office of the slaughterhouse, but they were attracted by the sausage stuffing work scene inside the large glass window on the side of the building.

In the beige room, workers were all wearing clean white clothes, aprons, masks and headgear, using bright metal machinery to make sausages.

"This processing technology looks very modern!" Tao Yujia exclaimed.

"We have tens of millions of viewers watching our live broadcast now, right?" Jiang He asked the director.

"This advertisement is really powerful." Li Chengxin heard Jiang He's meaning.

The director nodded. Although there is no advertising fee, this program can indeed promote consumption in many towns with low economic benefits.

Before a few people went upstairs, there were several screams from upstairs.

"Jiang He!"

"Come and see Jiang He!"

"Jiang He really came to our place!"

Then, several female employees with badges ran down from upstairs and surrounded Jiang He.

Li Chengxin and Tao Yujia were classified as staff without any pressure.

I took a photo with these female employees and signed, and the live broadcast work finally got to the point.

Jiang He asked: "May I have a tour of your work site?"

Jiang He's original intention was to see what parts of the pigs might be discarded when they were slaughtered and divided.

It is no small matter for people to enter the slaughterhouse to visit and shoot. A female employee asked in a business-like manner: "Have you made an appointment?"

"No." Jiang He replied calmly.

[Hey, you don’t have an appointment? 】

[So this live broadcast really comes to your door without any greeting? 】

[Is it for real? 】

"Ah, please wait a moment, I'll ask the leader for instructions." Another female employee said and ran upstairs.

"Senior's power is so useful!" Li Chengxin sighed.

Soon, a young man in blue overalls came down and greeted a group of people.

"Hello, I am the boss here, welcome to visit!"

"Hey, hello," Li Chengxin greeted, "Our clothes match well."

Everyone looked at it and laughed.

The blue striped work clothes of the slaughterhouse and the show work clothes of Li Chengxin and others are of the same color.

With such a smile, the seriousness of this formal meeting disappeared.

It was not the first time Jiang He had seen Li Chengxin's ice-breaking level of chatting, so he made a secret note in his heart.

After explaining the purpose of coming, the boss said: "It is not allowed to film the inner workings of the slaughterhouse, but I can go to the production workshop to see what I can give you."

After a few minutes, the boss took out a large bag of pork from the processing area.

"so much?"

"Director, can you watch it?" Jiang He saw this big bag of pork and became a little uneasy considering the recent price of meat.

The boss explained: "These are the leftovers when the pork ribs are cut into bacon slices or hot pot slices. The last part cannot be minced because of too much fat. sell."

The director confirmed: "If we don't come today, what will happen to the pork?"

The boss replied without thinking: "These are dealt with by specialized companies every day, either buried or burned."

The director thought for a while, and said to the three of Jiang He, "Then let's pass."

"After taking so much meat, do we still have to go to the port?" Li Chengxin asked while looking at their customized itinerary.

The reason why Li Chengxin made this suggestion was not only because of the quantity of ingredients, but also in his mind, he was also silently considering what kind of dishes he could cook in the future. When he got a lot of pork, some small fish and shrimps seemed useless.

"I feel...that's enough." Tao Yujia estimated her appetite.

"Then let's go to the grain station to find rice!" Jiang He made a final decision.

The grain station is located on the most prosperous street in the town. The program crew parked the van near the grain station with difficulty. Seeing the surging crowd at the entrance of the grain station, the celebrity trio decided to give up.

"Do we really want to go? It feels like we won't be able to get out." Li Chengxin seemed to remember the fear of being dominated by fans.

"Zicheng, aren't you a local? Do you know if there is anyone in the town who grows rice?" Jiang He suddenly asked in a flash of inspiration.

"This kind of operation is still possible!" Tao Yujia instantly understood Jiang He's meaning, that is to go directly to the grain growers to ask for rice.

Li Chengxin thought for a while and then called Brother Xiaoyong.Brother Xiaoyong's parents, Li Chengxin's uncle and aunt, live in the town. They probably know whose family grows food.

Soon, Li Chengxin got the address and handed it to the driving staff.

[It’s so convenient for locals to use! 】

[I feel that Jiang He's group is really smooth. The other groups I watched were either surrounded by crowds or lost their way. I laughed so hard! 】

[This is the only group with a normal painting style, which is in stark contrast to the other groups]

Soon, we arrived at the door of the grain grower's house.I saw two stone lions standing at the door. Printed couplets had been pasted on both sides, and red lanterns were hung. The wide door was open, and you could see several children playing and running in the yard, and several well-dressed children. men and women chatting in the yard.

"Although the houses in the country are rustic, they are quite dignified." Jiang He, who lives in a villa, commented.

Several people got out of the car and greeted the people inside in front of the door.

"Ah! Jiang He? Is it Jiang He?" Several chatting adults recognized him one after another.

"What? Jiang He came to our house?" Several young people's heads poked out from upstairs, and some of them were watching the most popular live broadcast program with their mobile phones in their hands.

Everyone greeted again, satisfied some fans' requests, and explained why they came to ask for rice.

"It's true that rice will not be discarded." The host replied apologetically, "But there are some shiitake mushrooms planted behind my house, so I can give you some."

After the male master finished speaking, he called the younger generation of the family to go to the backyard to bring a small basket.

"Some shiitake mushrooms were picked late, and the gills have opened, or some of them have not grown, but they can be eaten after being cut off." The host pointed to the shiitake mushrooms in the basket and explained why they were discarded.

The director asked: "Doesn't your family eat it yourself?"

The male host replied: "Maybe I usually keep it for myself to eat slowly, but it's almost Chinese New Year, and the relatives and juniors at home are back, and I have prepared a lot of food. I feel that these not so good shiitake mushrooms are impossible before the Lantern Festival." Go eat."

Li Chengxin interrupted suddenly: "I would like to ask, can I visit your shiitake mushroom greenhouse? I also interviewed a farmer who grows shiitake mushrooms before, so I really want to see if the shiitake mushrooms are different in different places."

Li Chengxin said and showed the hostess the photos he took at Uncle Lu's house before.

"Ah! You are the mushrooms from Uncle Lu's house in Hongming Village!" To Li Chengxin's surprise, the male host recognized the origin of the mushrooms in the photo at a glance, "I said I looked familiar just now, aren't you Xinwa? son?"

"Hey, did you also watch my live broadcast?" Li Chengxin was flattered.

The host smiled and led everyone to the shiitake mushroom shed in the backyard. He saw many logs neatly erected in the shed. The family used the most common log cultivation method to grow shiitake mushrooms.

"The shiitake mushrooms that you compared with Uncle Lu's shiitake mushrooms in your live broadcast were grown by my family..." The host's words made Li Chengxin very embarrassed, "After the rice harvest in September every year, I will concentrate on planting shiitake mushrooms, Many of the shiitake mushrooms sold in the town belong to my family... Uncle Lu and I are quite familiar with each other, and he told me about it before the live broadcast that day."

After leaving this family, they not only got the shiitake mushrooms, but also the radishes and scallions that their neighbors could not finish eating and were about to throw away, and they agreed to have dinner together at Li Chengxin's house in the evening.

After finishing the trip in the town, several people got into the van and headed for Hongming Village along the dilapidated concrete road with snow piled on both sides.

Along the way, the car was moving very slowly, so everyone started chatting.

"What does Senior Jiang usually like to eat?" Li Chengxin asked.

"If I really want to say that I like it, it's definitely meat. But, in fact, in order to maintain my figure, I can't eat too much of my favorite barbecued meats. In the end, the one I eat the most is boiled chicken breast."

"This is too miserable." Tao Yujia also joined the chat, "I like to eat seafood the most, but I'm always on missions inland and can't always eat it. Zicheng, you live by the sea, do you eat it every day? Seafood?”

Li Chengxin shook his head: "No, the sea ecology in our home is very unbalanced, many fish can't survive, and my home can't go to the far sea, so I eat more sea urchins raised by myself, but the fish eat more. Quite a few."

"You actually raise sea urchins at home! This life is quite luxurious!" Jiang He said.

"It's just a small amount of experimental breeding, but it seems that the breeding is successful. It can be promoted and allowed to be raised by villagers starting this year," Li Chengxin explained. "My next goal is to try to control the marine environment in my home." Get up...this is what I am studying."

"Sounds like fun. When you are almost done with the treatment, go to your private beach to swim and escape the heat." Tao Yujia thought about her future plans.
