Zhou Xing took out the bamboo backpack that the kitchen staff usually used to carry things and pulled up Zhou Yue who was sitting on the ground.

"Sister! I just found a huge patch of mushrooms! Let's go pick some mushrooms!"

"Okay!"

Zhou Yue also looked excited. In her previous life, she often watched short videos about picking mushrooms, and the more she watched, the more addicted she became.

However, since I live in the city, I have never experienced this kind of fun!

She also carried a bamboo backpack and walked deep into the forest with her brother.

When the two arrived at the area full of mushrooms, there were already several soldiers picking them with bamboo baskets in their hands. They might be cooks from other battalions.

Under the cover of dead leaves and branches, mushrooms are popping up on the ground like bamboo shoots after a rain, and they look very prosperous.

Zhou Yue squatted down and picked the mushrooms one by one with great pleasure. Seeing the increasing number of mushrooms in the basket, the feeling of satisfaction was simply indescribable!

During the picking process, many soldiers came over and quickly picked all the flowers in this area, not even a flower as small as a little finger was left behind.

The place where the mushrooms were placed was chosen by Zhou Yue. When she was looking for mushrooms, she deliberately led the soldiers to the area where the mushrooms grew.

The soldiers were so excited by the large and plump mushrooms!

In the end, Zhou Yue and the soldiers picked all the mushrooms from those places.

The two bamboo backpacks she and her brother carried were filled with all kinds of mushrooms.

There was so much stuff in her backpack that it was about to overflow. The two baskets together probably weighed eighty or ninety kilograms.

When the two men returned to the camp carrying mushrooms, they saw a lively scene of pig slaughtering.

While Zhao Dashan was cutting open the belly, he was chatting and laughing with the cook beside him.

"This is truly a treasure mountain! There are so many wild animals on the mountain! As soon as I entered the woods, this big fat pig rushed over to me!"

Wang Tiezhu, who was boiling water nearby, also had a smile on his face.

"Everyone has made a good harvest this time. We don't need to share this pig. We don't have to worry about the soldiers' meals these days!"

This wild boar weighs nearly 300 kilograms and is the largest among the five wild boars released by Zhou Yue.

Soon after, the hunting soldiers came back one after another. Their harvest was very good. The people in their camp hunted a total of eight pheasants and three snakes.

After the wild boar was gutted, a large basin of internal organs was taken out, weighing about thirty to forty kilograms, including pig intestines, pig hearts, pig lungs, pig kidneys, pig livers, etc.

Wang Tiezhu brought the basin of offal to his nose and sniffed it, his facial features wrinkled.

"Brother Dashan, these offal smell too strong! What are we going to do later?"

In such difficult times, there were no seasonings or things to remove fishy smells, and the internal organs were not handled properly, making the food very difficult to eat. People had no choice but to eat it.

Zhao Dashan was also a little helpless. Under such conditions, he could not think of any other way to cook it except stewing it in an iron pot.

"Brother Dashan, I'll go clean these organs and see if I can get rid of the fishy smell."

"Okay, then you can go with Xingxing. It's too dark so let him hold the fire."

Zhou Yue got some wood ash from the campfire, and then the two of them came to a small pond a few dozen meters away.

During the Long March of the Red Army, water was a big problem. Sometimes, if they were lucky, they could encounter river water or mountain spring water on the road.

Sometimes, I couldn't find him even after walking a long way, and my throat was so dry that it was smoking, but I could only endure it silently.

She learned through the system that there was almost no water source on the mountain where they were resting tonight.

So I bought clean tap water in the mall. The price was very good, only 2 points per ton.

You should know that one ton of water is equivalent to 2000 bottles of 500ml mineral water.

So she found two dry pools on the mountain and put 50 tons of water in each.

To get rid of the fishy smell of pig offal, you can first rub it with wood ash and then soak it in cooking wine.

Zhou Xing held a torch and looked at the pig organs in the big basin with an innocent look on his face.

This younger brother is almost inseparable from her every day, and he is well-behaved and obedient.

There are some things that cannot be hidden from him, and there is no need to hide them from him, just let him keep it secret.

"Brother, don't be surprised when you see something, and don't tell anyone, understand?"

Zhou Xing nodded seriously, "Okay, Sister!"

After receiving a positive response from her brother, she used her points to buy a bottle of cooking wine.

When my younger brother saw something appear out of nowhere, he was startled, but he was still very obedient and didn't ask anything.

With the help of cooking wine and wood ash, the fishy smell of the pig offal was quickly eliminated.

When I got back, the water in the pot had already boiled, so I cut the pig offal into small pieces and put it in.

In addition to the offal, there were also chunks of pork, chicken chunks from two pheasants, three snakes, about ten pounds of mushrooms and picked wild vegetables.

Zhao Dashan still used his favorite big pot stew, after all, it was filling and convenient.

However, Zhou Yue added some dried chilies brought by the kitchen team into the pot.

Among the Long March team, there were many people from Jiangxi who loved spicy food very much.

Adding some chili peppers to the pot will make it taste better, and as the weather is getting colder, eating spicy food can also warm you up.

Today's meal was more sumptuous than ever before. Everyone got to eat a lot of meat, and after drinking the steaming hot broth, everyone felt warmed up.

During dinner, Zhou Yue never stopped smiling. The account balance, which originally was only in the double digits, now skyrocketed.

The whole team had more than 8 people, and many camps had good incomes, so they all stewed a big pot of meat to eat.

These soldiers have not eaten nutritious food for a long time, and their health is deteriorating due to malnutrition.

A bowl of broth can provide them with a lot of nutrition and energy. When nutrients are injected into the body, the health value will naturally increase.

As the soldiers' health values ​​increased, the account balance continued to rise. By the end of dinner, the points balance had reached more than 30!

She was so happy that she almost cried! This was more than 30 yuan! Even if she walked for more than a month, she couldn't redeem so many points!

Cool!

After the sumptuous dinner, there was still more than 150 kilograms of wild boar meat left, and six live pheasants.

After cleaning the pot, Wang Tiezhu felt a little worried when he saw so much leftover pork.

"Well, even though it's not that hot now, this much pork won't last more than two days."

"Yeah, but it always feels a bit of a shame to eat it all at once."

After Zhao Dashan finished speaking, he picked up the salt jar, opened it and saw that it was almost empty.

"It's a pity that there's not much salt left, otherwise we could make bacon out of it."

In the past, people would make bacon after slaughtering pigs. The bacon that was cured with salt would not go bad for a year.

For people in the past, meat was really too precious. Using this method, the meat can be preserved for a longer time, and when you want to eat it, you can just cut off a little to taste it.

Just when the two were worrying about the meat, Zhou Yue came over with a smile.

"Brother Dashan, I have a solution!"
