Nowadays, people in Jiachuan no longer need to kill chickens, and Zhangjiagou Market has a killing service.

In addition to killing chickens, there is also killing of fish, which is a relatively professional job such as tearing off yellow peppers and dicing them. There is also killing of soft-shelled turtles. You have to find someone to kill them for you. Mr. Hu is doing this.

When Zhou Zhi and Yang He came over, Mr. Hu had just finished the first wave. He took the time to order a bowl of noodles and was sucking it. When he saw Zhou Zhi coming, he greeted: "Is the elbow back? Lao Zhang's noodles outside, here they are for you."

Order a portion?"

"Hurry up and eat, I've already eaten." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a while, Third Master, business is very good?"

"It's okay, but I'm just a little busy. It's the time when river fish are on sale, and there are also eels and loaches. I have to run around at three o'clock every night to receive the goods."

There was still a kimchi stall next to Mr. San, but now it was a middle-aged man whom Zhou Zhi didn't recognize.

The man's ears didn't seem to be very good. When the third master introduced him to others, he said very loudly: "This is Xiaojuan'er's uncle, Zhou Zhi!"

After that, he said to Zhou Zhi: "This is my family in the countryside. Sister Xiaojuan'er wanted to sell out this stall when her business grew. I thought this would be a good idea, so I called my relatives to come over and make some income."

"

He was a simple farmer who didn't talk much, and nodded and smiled honestly at Zhou Zhi.

Zhou Zhi also nodded to him. He didn't look like a businessman. He probably relied on Third Master to support the stall.

Because of this, Zhou Zhigao glanced at Third Master and said with a smile: "There is something we can't do, so we can only ask Third Master to do it."

"What's going on?"

Zhou Zhi opened the fertilizer bag: "I caught two good ones."

"Hey, this thing is so expensive now. Where did you get it?"

"Across the river."

"Do you want to sell the elbow or kill it?"

"Huh? If you want to sell it, do you have any skills?" Zhou Zhi asked.

This old turtle can be sold for almost 500 yuan. Of course, for Zhou Zhi, it is not even a drizzle, but for Yang He, 500 yuan can be enough to pay for the next year's tuition and fees.

These two turtles were caught by Yang He. Although Yang He would be happy to send them to the reading salon for everyone to mend, Zhou Zhi cannot do this.

"Yes, the river fresh food restaurant on the pontoon is waiting to collect it." Mr. Hu said to these people: "If you want to sell the elbow, it will be eighty-five pounds per pound, and I will sell it for you."

"How about we keep the small ones for stew and sell the big ones?" Zhou Zhi asked Yang He.

"It's up to you, I can't do it anyway." Yang He was thinking about another issue.

"Hahaha, then sell the big ones. Please help us kill the small ones."

"Then let's weigh it first. This turtle will be used as a small pot lid." At this time, there were people coming over to watch and commenting, saying that such a big turtle needs at least ten years to grow.

In the end, it was weighed at five pounds and eight taels, or four hundred and ninety-three yuan. Zhou Zhi only asked Mr. Hu to give him four hundred and ninety-nine yuan.

He shouted loudly to the villagers to go to the barge under Beimen Pier and ask the boss to come and get the turtle. The third master quickly caught another small turtle weighing more than a kilogram.

The little turtle turned to bite him, but San Ye quickly pinched his neck, then stabbed the junction of his neck and body, cutting the blood vessels and trachea, ending it.

Then use a blade to cut into the body of the soft-shell turtle from above the tail, and pick along the carapace. When you get to the front paws, you will be taught careful techniques: "Here is the hard bone. Move the knife upwards and find the cartilage gap, like

In this way, the two ends are cut off and the back armor is opened."

Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "You deserve this skill. Even if you teach me, I wouldn't dare to scratch its neck. It's too fast."

The third master cleaned out the turtle's belly, threw the turtle back into Yang He's fertilizer bag, and grabbed some seasoning from a kimchi stall: "I'll give you some Codonopsis pilosula, red dates, and wolfberry for a few minutes. Put it in before you get to the pot."

.”

"You take this soft-shell turtle back and soak it in hot water. The temperature should not be boiled. It should be 80 or 90 degrees. While it is being scalded, try to scrape it with a knife. Take it out as soon as the skin can be scraped off, because if you scald the skin again, it will be difficult to scrape.

.”

"The rest is simple, just like making black-bone chicken soup."

"I'll go home and kill the black-bone chicken myself." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I won't give you the money to kill the turtle."

He held up the small seasoning bag and said, "Thank you, Third Master!"

"Why are you being polite to me?!" Hu Sanye waved his hand: "You saved my old waist, and I can still charge you this little money!"

"Then let's go..."

"Elbow, please wait a moment." The third master suddenly remembered something: "Do you know Sun Ermao, the owner of the tricycle?"

"They are quite familiar. We met yesterday. Third Master, do you want to see him if you have something to do?"

"That's great if you know me!" Mr. Hu Sanye said happily: "That's it, look at me. Except for the north gate, I have to go to Caiba or Ma Street. It's inconvenient to get rid of monsters. I heard

Sun Ermao wants to change his car..."

"Are you still planning to take over his shabby car?" Zhou Zhi was speechless. Those shabby cars were originally eliminated by the post and telecommunications bureau after running around in towns and villages, and then were modified by Sun Ermao and continued to be destroyed. Zhou Zhi didn't dare to think deeply about the condition of the car.

"Elbow help me to ask." Hu Sanye said eagerly: "The key is cheap."

"I can ask him to pick a better one for you." Zhou Zhi said, "But let me remind you, those are modified cars, and the county may ban them from the road that day."

"If the county bans it, won't there be still rural areas?!" Hu Sanye said: "If it doesn't work, what else can we use the engine for?"

"For example, what should I do if my fish stall encounters a power outage? It would be good to have a backup pump then."

Nowadays, we have just got rid of the days of "three years of new life and three years of old life, and another three years of mending and repairing". There are many people like Mr. San who are very careful with their budgets.

"Hahaha, Third Master has yours..." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Then just wait for my news!"

Back at the dormitory of the Sugar and Wine Company, friends had already arrived one after another, but Jiang Shuyi and Liang Hong were the first to arrive.

"Hey Sister Hong, why is it dark again?!" Zhou Zhi couldn't help but joke when he saw Liang Hong: "Today we have black-bone chicken and stewed turtle for lunch, why don't you sit at a table by yourself to avoid everyone pinching you with their chopsticks?"

"Looking for a fight!" Liang Hong got angry when others said this, but Zhou Zhi was used to teasing her. Liang Hong always responded to this situation with force, and did not shy away from distinguishing between men and women. She raised her kick and kicked Zhou Zhi in the face.

On the butt: “It’s itchy after not seeing it for a month!”

This kick actually made Zhou Zhi smile brightly: "Oh, Sister Hong, you are so strong again."

"Liang Hong is practicing basketball hard this month." Jiang Shuyi said.

It seems that the friends still maintain their habit of morning exercises during the summer vacation. They should meet in the square every morning to know each other's situation.

"You can't beat the boys, so you still practice?" Zhou Zhi said, "You are here today, you can make up for it."

Yang He was alone across the river. He couldn't solve many questions in Paper A, and his desire to learn was already overwhelming. Zhou Zhi had no choice but to let Jiang Shuyi tutor him in English first, while he went to the roof to kill the ducks and geese and kill the chickens.

Liang Hong found it interesting and wanted to watch it.
