Chapter 1106 Chef Zhao’s Professional Ability
The big brown bear, weighing more than 500 kilograms, nearly 600 kilograms, crushed the little hedgehog with one sitting motion.
Its flesh and blood body could not withstand the big brown bear, but the little hedgehog's spines were not broken. Some were stuck horizontally, some were stuck diagonally, and all were stuck in the brown bear's anus.
The big brown bear initially thought that the large intestine was... sandy!
"Sha Ting" is a Northeastern dialect, which means a tingling feeling.
As it moved, it felt a burning pain in its anus. The big brown bear didn't know what was going on. It tried to dig it out with its paws, but its paws were not flexible enough and it couldn't reach the affected area.
In desperation, the big brown bear stood up and ran away.
As the brown bear ran, his hips twisted and he felt even more pain!
Blind bears, whether brown or black, have thick skin and flesh, but their anus is vulnerable. The hedgehog thorns stuck horizontally or diagonally pierce the large intestine, and the brown bears cry in pain when they move.
The big brown bear didn't run far before he found a tree that was blown by the wind.
The big tree was broken in half by the wind, and the two halves formed a triangle with the ground. Snow was hanging on the top and trunk of the tree, and the brown bear could hide inside to keep out the wind and cold.
The brown bear rushed in here and then turned around with its head facing outwards.
This is the habit of bears. If they go into a cave to rest, they will turn their heads outward. If they are in the wilderness, the bear's head will face the direction it came from.
When the brown bear turned around, it cried out in pain from the stinging pain in its anus.
Echoing the bear's roar was a "woooo" sound from the second rib of the upper mountain.
It’s not that the brown bear didn’t hear the noise, it was just that it was so uncomfortable and annoyed that it didn’t care about anything else.
At this time, on the second side of the mountain, a man was cutting wood with a chainsaw. The sound of the chainsaw made him and his assistant who was working on the chainsaw unaware of the bear's roar.
After about seven or eight minutes, the chainsaw operator stopped the saw temporarily, and then the chainsaw assistant shouted at the top of his voice: "It's falling down the mountain! It's falling down the mountain!"
This is a reminder that after a tree is felled, it may roll down the hillside. If anyone goes up the mountain at this time, please be careful.
The chainsaw operator continued to work after the chainsaw assistant shouted eight times. It took only about a minute, or less than two minutes, for the tree to fall down with a loud bang.
The big tree rolled down the hillside for about three meters and hit another tree. The trunk of the tree stopped on the hillside, but the top of the tree swung down.
When the tree fell, the top of the tree caved in. With the impact, the top of the tree broke off and fell down under the action of inertia.
On top, the chainsaw operator and the chainsaw assistant looked down, fearing that the tree would hit someone.
But the tree stopped moving when the wind blew, and the chainsaw operator and the chainsaw assistant turned around and went to smoke.
The top of the tree was full of branches and twigs, and it wouldn't produce any big timber, so the two men left it alone. It was better if it was broken, so they wouldn't have to saw it down further.
But what was unexpected was that the tree top fell right on the place where the brown bear was lying.
With a sudden bang, the triangular shape of the wind-blown trees collapsed, and the big brown bear was knocked down along with the trees and snow.
The bear's head was buried in the snow. The big brown bear wanted to scream but his mouth was filled with snow. He shook his head and struggled to get up.
When it crawled out, one of its hind legs was dragging on the ground limply, obviously broken.
"Ouch..." The big brown bear let out a low whimper and walked upwards with difficulty.
Logically speaking, if the hind limbs are injured, one should walk downhill, and it would be better to use the front limbs to exert force when going downhill.
But the big brown bear just did what it wanted. At this time, it smelled the smoke and the grease on the human body. Its thinking was very simple, and it immediately determined that the two people were the culprits who injured its hind paw.
The big brown bear was right in his guess. When it was going up the mountain, its paws and anus hurt, and it couldn't help but growl in pain.
At this time, the two people who were sitting on the tree stump smoking heard the roar of a bear, but they thought it was the sound of the mountain wind and did not think that a brown bear would attack.
This is not carelessness, nor is it ignorance. On the contrary, they have been in the forest for two or three years and are well aware of the habits of wild animals.
The two men thought that when they were cutting down trees, the humming sound of the chainsaw would scare away nearby wild animals, so no one expected a bear to suddenly come up.
After finishing a cigarette, the chainsaw assistant threw the cigarette butt on the snow and stomped it out, then said to the chainsaw operator, "Old Wu, I'll go measure it, and then we'll make the wood."
A tree that big cannot be pulled by horses or cows in one go, so it has to be sawed into sections.
"I'll go with you two!" The chainsaw operator and the chainsaw assistant had worked together for three years and they had a good relationship. He stood up and said to the chainsaw assistant, "You measure the scale and I'll cut the branches."
As the two men turned around to go down the hill, they felt a dark smell above their heads and a fishy smell hit them in the face.
The two men subconsciously waved their tools. The chainsaw operator swung the chainsaw, while the chainsaw assistant raised the ruler to block outwards.
But the next second, a huge force hit them and they both fell down.
The big brown bear stretched out its arms and pressed the two of them down with its long arms.
At this moment, it was purely a survival instinct. The two of them rolled on the ground together, facing down, and then they jumped out from under the brown bear's arms with all four limbs. They dropped the chainsaw and other tools and ran down the mountain.
In times of crisis, being able to run is lucky. But people like Chen Dalai and his two brothers-in-law couldn't even run away.
More than a dozen guns gathered under the tree, and Chen Dalai, who had run out of bullets, could only wait on the tree.
They had been waiting for an hour, but the wild boars didn't leave. They lay patiently under the tree waiting for Chen Dalai and the other two.
The wild boar was patient, but Chen Dalai and the Zheng brothers were not. After a long wait, the wild boar that Chen Dalai had just killed had to be emptied.
Another one is: it’s cold!
Humans are different from wild boars. Wild boars lie still on the ground to reduce energy consumption, but humans cannot circulate blood and will freeze stiff in a short time.
Chen Dalai crossed his arms and licked his lips. Not only was he cold, he was also hungry.
The three of them brought some dry food when they left home, but it was all on Zheng Guangjun alone.
It was fine since the Zheng brothers were close by, so Zheng Guangjun threw a bald pancake to Zheng Guangcai, who took it and started eating it.
But Chen Dalai couldn't do that. There was a horizontal tree branch behind him, and the branches on the branch blocked his connection with the Zheng brothers. Zheng Guangjun threw it to him, but he couldn't catch it. The bald cakes that fell to the ground were eaten by Pao Luanzi.
"Stop being so stubborn, both of you!" Chen Dalai shouted at his two brothers-in-law in frustration, "Hurry up and think of a way!"
He was so upset and anxious that he didn't eat it himself and didn't let others eat it.
"Brother-in-law!" Zheng Guangjun chewed his dry food and said with a bitter face, "You don't have any tricks, so what can we do?"
"Then stop talking!" Chen Dalai was anxious. He shouted at Zheng Guangjun and Zheng Guangcai, "You two take the knives and chop the branch. Then use it to hit the tree!"
This is really a solution!
Just like the sticks that the ginseng people used when they went up the mountain, they used them for this purpose. When they walked along the way, they kept hitting the trees with the sticks, which could scare away nearby wild animals.
"No, brother-in-law!" As soon as Chen Dalai finished speaking, Zheng Guangjun said, "I can't cut it!"
It's not that Zheng Guangjun didn't work hard, but the branches he encountered were either too thick or too thin. The thick ones were as big as the mouth of a bowl. This tree is alive and has moisture, so it freezes hard in winter. It's okay to use a chain saw to chop such a thick branch, but it's hard to chop it with an axe.
Thin branches are as thin as chopsticks, so they can't knock down the tree when they are cut.
"Cut those branches!" Chen Dalai instructed his two brothers-in-law again, "Cut a bunch of branches, tie them together, and throw them at the cannon balls!"
This might be a solution. Anyway, there was no other way at the moment, so the three of them started collecting twigs from the tree.
Just as they were busy, a car stopped outside the gate of Zhao's courtyard.
Zhao Jun, Wang Qiang, Lin Xiangshun, Zhou Jianjun, and Jie Chen lifted basins and buckets from the trunk of the car.
At this time, Zhao Youcai was cooking in the yard. In one big pot were boiled wild boar elbows and spare ribs, while the other big pot was still empty but had been cleaned.
Seeing Zhao Jun and his men coming back, Zhao Youcai commanded, "Hurry up and pick up some carp for me!"
"Dad! Open the door for us first!" Zhao Jun, who was carrying a large basin full of fish, said to Zhao Youcai. They were carrying things in their hands, so they asked Zhao Youcai to help open the door.
Most of the fish caught today were carp and crucian carp, with fewer silver carp and grass carp. The fish were piled together and because the temperature was too low, their bodies were covered with ice.
In the outer room of the Zhao family, the women were cutting and preparing food. The big pot in the room was also busy, stewing chicken with mushrooms.
"Aunt!" Zhao Jun came in and said to Zhao Ling, "My dad asked me to pick up some carp. He wants to stew it."
"Hey! Okay!" Zhao Ling responded and asked Zhao Jun, "How many do we need to collect?"
"Pick the big ones, let's get four first." Zhao Jun said.
"Jun!" Hu Sanmei hurriedly asked, "There are so many, can we eat them?"
"Auntie, we have to have at least four!" Zhao Jun said, "If they eat, we have to eat too!"
Zhao Ling, Zhao Chun and Liu Lanying picked up the fish in a basin, scraped the scales, gutted them and removed the gills. Zhao Jun went out with a jar of oil to look for Zhao Youcai.
Heat the pan and add some oil. Zhao Youcai puts the fish that he has cleaned and cut into pieces into the pan and fries them. After the four fish are fried on both sides, they are stewed in the same pan and covered with a steamed bun and steamed rolls.
After the soup from the chicken and mushroom stew in the pot in the house had dried up, Xu Chunyan put the dishes in a large basin and covered it with a curtain made of sorghum stalks.
At this time, the pork elbows and spare ribs braised outside are taken out of the pot, and the pork elbows and spare ribs are braised in the pot that has been cleaned in the house.
The elbows and ribs are all mushy, and they are braised in a large pot until the sauce thickens.
Use the empty big pot to start stewing the toads.
Outside the house, Zhao Jun helped Zhao Youcai. After taking out the pork elbows and ribs, Zhao Youcai instructed Zhao Jun to skim off the oil on the top of the stewed meat soup, and then put the soup in a large bowl for later use.
Zhao Jun did as Zhao Youcai instructed. After finishing all this, he scrubbed the big pot again.
He had just finished washing this pot when the fish in the pot next to it came out, so Zhao Jun hurriedly continued to wash the pot.
After both pots were cleaned, Zhao Youcai began his performance.
As expected of the canteen chef, Zhao Youcai is quite capable.
Heat oil in a pan, add cabbage, black fungus, and lean slices of wild boar tenderloin, half a spoonful of soy sauce and a spoonful of braised meat broth.
The fire in the stove was burning very fiercely, but the fire was strong but not urgent, and the soup was quickly collected.
Zhao Youcai held a spatula in one hand and an iron ladle in the other, and quickly stir-fried the vegetables evenly.
Finally, sprinkle a little salt into the dish, stir-fry for a few times and serve. Add salt after cooking, just a little salt is enough to make it taste good.
Next came the fried potato slices with dry chili peppers. Zhao Youcai used almost the same method to cook this dish as the previous one, except that he added a little water starch before serving.
Add a little starch and serve immediately.
Next, Zhao Youcai fried three more slices, shredded potatoes, red mushroom meat slices, sauerkraut vermicelli, homemade sausage fried with green onions, wild boar meat fried with mountain fern, and stir-fried dried tofu. He fried a dish almost every two minutes.
After Zhao Youcai finished cooking each dish, he would use a spatula and a ladle to serve the dish, and he was very fast at doing so.
Chef Zhao used two pots to cook food in turn, and Zhao Jun would wash the pots after each dish came out. He did nothing but wash the pots, and he almost didn't serve Zhao Youcai.
There are nine stir-fried dishes, and it takes a full twenty minutes from the time the first dish is put into the wok to the time the last dish is taken out of the wok.
Zhao Youcai put the water ladle in his left hand, waved to Jie Chen with his empty right hand, and said, "Take it to the house!"
Then, Zhao Youcai threw the ladle and frying pan into the pot, took off his apron, and said to Zhao Jun, "Clean it all up!"
After saying that, Zhao Youcai threw the apron into Zhao Jun's arms and walked into the house with his hands behind his back.
Chef Zhao was very good today, and Zhao Jun was happy to serve him. He shouted to Zhao Youcai with a smile: "Dad, you go to your room and take a rest!"
Braised pork elbow, braised spareribs, chicken stewed with mushrooms, stewed forest frogs with sauce, fish stewed in an iron pot, fried small river fish, sugar-coated radish, plus nine stir-fried dishes, a total of sixteen dishes.
Both the Zhao and Li families' houses were so lively. The Li family was there to exchange gifts with their in-laws, while the Zhao family was there just to enjoy the delicious food.
"Second Uncle." Lin Xiangshun slurped a mouthful of dried tofu and couldn't help but praise Zhao Youcai, saying, "Your cooking skills are really good!"
The more home-cooked the dish is, the more skill it demonstrates.
In Northeast China, men cannot get enough of dried tofu and big tofu. Halal restaurants in Northeast China are good at one dish, not beef or mutton, but dried tofu with spicy peppers.
Zhao Youcai made this dish of fried dried tofu by cutting the dried tofu into strips and blanching it. In fact, the dried tofu can be put into the pot directly, but after blanching, whether it is fried or stewed, the dried tofu tastes meaty.
After blanching, add hot oil to the pan, stir-fry, add a little soy sauce, thicken with starch, garnish with chopped green onions and serve. It sounds simple, but it is not easy to make Zhao Youcai's taste.
"Brother-in-law." Wang Qiang raised his glass and said to Zhao Youcai, "You have to cook more at home in the future!"
Zhao Youcai glanced at Wang Qiang without saying anything, raised his glass and clinked it with him, then gestured to Lin Xiangshun and Jie Chen.
Several families gathered together to eat and drink well.
The canteen at Yongan Forest Farm was deserted. Today was a holiday for the whole farm. However, the security team and the gatekeeper were on duty, so Han Daming stayed in the canteen to cook for them.
There were few people and Han Daming was lazy, so he just cooked a pot of hot noodle soup.
"Oh!" Seeing Li Ruhai coming with a lunch box to get noodles, Han Daming looked at him in surprise and asked, "Isn't your brother doing that today? Why didn't you go home?"
"I'm on duty today." Li Ruhai was too embarrassed to say that he was kicked out, so he just said, "Love your job and be dedicated to it. Love the place like your home."
"You are such a useless kid." Han Daming sighed and said, "Your family must have prepared ten dishes today. Why don't you go home and eat noodles here?"
Li Ruhai smiled but said nothing. At this moment, he was thinking, "I want to go back more than anyone else."
Li Ruhai was in no mood, so he ate a simple bite and went back to the mailroom. It was a holiday today, so the gate was locked and the guard had nothing to do, so Li Ruhai lay down on the kang and prepared to sleep.
He slept for an indecisive amount of time before he was awakened by a knock on the door.
Li Ruhai got up, put on his cotton jacket and walked out of the room, he saw Hong Yuntao, deputy leader of the security team, standing in front of him with a gun on his back.
There were two security guards behind him, also carrying guns.
"Hurry up and open the door!" Hong Yuntao waved at Li Ruhai. Li Ruhai's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked, "What's the matter, Uncle Hong?"
There is more to update, but I had something to do at home today, so I was delayed.
It's going to be late, brothers, go to bed first
