Chapter 6 Satisfaction and Future

After ten minutes, Fangyuan was polished. One side had a blade, but the other side was still round. Fangyuan didn't know if it could be used, so he tried it with a piece of grass.

Unexpectedly, it was quite sharp. The grass flew past the blade and was cut off directly. Fangyuan was very excited, stood up and walked towards the eel.

After coming over, Fangyuan cut directly under the eel's head. Fangyuan used a lot of force, but he only cut a layer of the eel's skin.

I didn’t expect to cut the grass so smoothly. It’s not possible here with the eel. But it’s enough if you can cut the skin. At worst, take your time. Since you can cut the skin, you can also cut off the eel’s head.

After a few minutes, Fangyuan finally cut off the eel's head. Eel blood is a great tonic and aphrodisiac, especially the blood. Unfortunately, he was too young, otherwise he would have drank it.

Eels have very little blood. An eel weighing half a kilogram like this has only a few drops of blood in total.

The head was gone, and the eel was still running around on the ground, but this was a reflection of the light. Sure enough, within a few minutes, it stopped moving, and Fangyuan was already ready.

Taking the not very sharp knife made of bicycle strips, I came to the reed swamp and opened up the eel's intestines.

After cleaning it, Fangyuan took it back to the vegetable cellar, cut it into sections in the lunch box, and marinated it with salt.

While marinating the eel segments, Fangyuan took out another lunch box, got some white flour, and some cornmeal, and mixed them together.

He was preparing to make steamed cakes, and he just remembered a way to eat them. In this way, white flour and cornmeal can be eaten together.

The most important thing is that this thing is much more hungry than eating polenta. Soon the noodles are almost ready, and Fangyuan lit a fire to heat the noodles.

There is no way, although the temperature in the vegetable cellar is not low, it still takes a certain amount of time to make the noodles. Adding more fire will make a difference, and the noodles will rise quickly.

When the noodles are rising, the eel segments are almost marinated. There is no seasoning here in Fangyuan. It can be said that nothing is used except salt.

Half an hour later, the dough was ready. When it was first mixed, it was only on the bottom layer of the lunch box. Now it is more than half of the lunch box, which means it has risen well.

There was no pot in Fangyuan, but it was not difficult for him. He first covered the lunch box with noodles, then took out another lunch box and filled it half with water, and placed the lunch box with noodles in the lunch box with water.

It can be steamed in this way. Although it is not as good as steaming in a pot, this is what he has now.

Light the fire and start evaporating the cake, then add water to the lunch box containing the eel segments and put it on top, placing the two lunch boxes side by side.

In just ten minutes, Fangyuan could smell the aroma, which was of course meat. He swallowed his saliva and turned down the fire.

A few more minutes passed, and the aroma of evaporated cakes wafted out of the lunch box. Of course, it was the aroma of steamed cakes. Fangyuan knew that it would be ready to eat in a while.

Then Fangyuan burned for another five or six minutes, then Fangyuan stopped adding firewood to the stove and let the fire go out naturally.

After the fire went out, Fangyuan was not in a hurry to eat, but waited for a while because the lunch box was very hot at this time.

Feeling that the lunch box had cooled down, Fangyuan took the lunch box down and opened the lunch box containing the eel first. A stronger aroma came out.

This made Fangyuan, who had not seen meat for more than half a month, his eyes light up and his mouth watered. He couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth.

"Oh! It's so hot." It was so hot that he breathed in cold air, and Fangyuan was reluctant to throw up.

Fangyuan knew that he would definitely scald it, but he couldn't care about it now. Not to mention, the stew was pretty bad.

Although it doesn't have much taste, for Fangyuan now, this is the delicacy of the world.

Fangyuan opened another lunch box, which was already full, of course because the steamed cakes were cooked.

Fangyuan took a piece and put it in his mouth and chewed it. It was not bad, with a slightly sweet taste. This is of course because cornmeal is inherently sweet.

With one bite of cake and one bite of eel, Fangyuan was full in no time, and he was a glutton. Not to mention that Fangyuan was unpromising, it was probably the same for everyone who reached his level.

There was half of the cake left, and some eel left, which was already a lot. It was like he had eaten half the lunch box of cake, and there were so many eels.

This is definitely a lot for an eight-year-old child.

After eating and drinking enough, Fangyuan had to think about the future. The weather was getting colder, and it would get colder in the future.

Although he has food now, he has no clothing to keep out the cold, let alone bedding. A few sacks are fine now, but they will be of no use in winter.

So the most urgent thing for him now is to prepare clothes and bedding. Where can these things be found? Of course, only stores have them.

But he couldn't buy it. Besides, even the store didn't have ready-made clothes and quilts for sale. He could only buy cloth and make it himself.

Moreover, he didn’t have a cloth ticket to buy cloth. Even if he had a cloth ticket, it would be useless. How could he, an eight-year-old child, make clothes?

Then there is another way, and that is to borrow it from someone else's house. Of course, this is a nice way of saying it, but to put it bluntly, it means stealing it.

But Fangyuan can't pass his level. If it's something owned by the public, Fangyuan can convince himself, but he can't do that with something belonging to the common people.

To put it bluntly, the people here in Qinghe Commune probably don’t have as good a life as he does most of the time. How could you ask him to do this?

Since we can't attack the common people, we can only attack the neighbor's woolen mill. Anyway, we have already stolen it once, so it doesn't matter if we steal it again.

The worst case scenario is that you can return it later when you are able. Even if you can't return the item, it's the same as returning it to anything else.

That night, around eleven or twelve o'clock, Fangyuan went out. Compared with more than half a month ago, Fangyuan's body is much stronger now.

However, he still got in through the rain drain, because it was still difficult for him to climb over the wall. After all, the wall was too high.

This is not the first time he has come in. Not only is he familiar with the road, but he at least knows a rough direction. However, this time he is not going to the canteen.

Instead, I want to find a warehouse. What is the most indispensable thing for the woolen mill? Of course it is fabric, and Fangyuan is here to get fabric.

After wandering around the woolen mill for a long time, Fangyuan could not find the warehouse because he had no idea where the warehouse was.

Besides, the houses here were all the same, and he didn't know which was the workshop and which was the warehouse.

Just when Fangyuan was about to give up, he passed by the door of a house and saw two people moving things out of the house and loading them on a truck at the door.

Fangyuan's eyes lit up when he saw what they were moving, because they were moving quilts, and this was a woolen factory, so they probably didn't produce quilts.

And they were moved in the middle of the night, so these quilts... Fang Yuan looked closer, but they were too far away to see clearly.

When Fang Yuan got closer, he discovered that these quilts were all new, and they looked very beautiful. It would not be an exaggeration to describe them as silk and satin.

At this time, if Fangyuan still doesn't understand what's going on, then he has come from the next life in vain. Winter is about to enter, and there is nothing more likely to please the leader than a quilt.

To put it bluntly, some people want to flatter themselves, hoping to be appreciated by their leaders, and then take advantage of their positions to enrich themselves.

There's nothing we can do about it, there are always people like this, especially in this era, it's even more so.

Initially, Fangyuan was afraid of being discovered and wanted to leave, but he stopped again, and then began to calculate the time it would take for the two people to come out and go in.

Just when the two people were moving for the third time after he came over, Fangyuan ran out, and at this time, the two people had already entered.

Fangyuan climbed onto the truck, threw down a quilt, then quickly got down, hugged the quilt and ran away.

This quilt is very thick, probably weighing more than ten pounds.

Fangyuan didn't run far, but ran to the place where he was hiding before, and then put down the quilt. There was already a lot in the car, and no one would notice if there was one less bed.

Just as Fangyuan was hiding, two people came out carrying the quilt, and Fangyuan was also ready.

In this way, after three trips back and forth, Fangyuan got three quilts from the car. The reason why he got three quilts was because Fangyuan had a plan.

Two beds were used for bedding, and one bed was dismantled to make cotton-padded clothes. You must know that the quilt is made of cotton, which is the warmest thing in this era.

After getting three quilts, Fangyuan was about to leave quietly, but at this time, two people came out again, this time they were no longer carrying quilts, but bundles of things.

Because it was wrapped in newspaper, Fangyuan couldn't tell what it was, but it shouldn't be bad for something that could be used as a gift.

There were still few cars in the car, so Fangyuan didn't move. After the two of them moved a few times, Fangyuan ran out. This time, he didn't even get into the car. He just stepped on the bumper at the back of the truck, pulled it off and bundled it up before running away.

One bundle was not heavy, no more than fifteen kilograms, because the two men just reported three or four bundles each. When they returned to the hiding place, Fang Yuan did not open the newspaper to see what it was.

Anyway, no matter what it is, he has already carried it, so he has to take it out, even if it is useless, it doesn't matter.

It was still early at this time, so Fangyuan kept waiting. After about half an hour, the two of them finally loaded everything into the car and drove away.

From beginning to end, I didn't notice that three quilts or bundles of things were missing. Also, both the quilts and the bundles of things were in relatively large quantities. If I didn't count them, it would have been impossible to find them.

The reason why they chose to install these things in the middle of the night was because no one was around at this time, so they would not count them after installing them.

After the truck left, Fangyuan was also ready to leave. It was impossible for him to take away so many things in one trip. He could only take one item at most in one trip.
