"It's time to get the lotus root—"

As soon as the sky was dawn, a loud horn sounded in the Ajie Valley.

The rough and bold baritone sang the harvest battle at the simplest rhythm, followed by a group of loud or low voices that screamed, alarming many birds living here.

"Hey--Every family is happy when you get lotus roots, hey, every family is happy!

My aunt and little boy looked through it!

He stepped on his feet and broke the waves, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

He took the white lotus root with one hand.

Alas, I want to say that this white lotus root has a lot of wonders,

Prince Nezha knew the details!

Can shape the divine body and make those thousands of troops break through,

Can attend the Nine Heavens Peach Banquet!

Can be eaten in a hundred common dishes,

If you can go to the market, you will get money!

Money is happy,

Lao Wang next door is left with his eyes to look at him!

It depends on it to get rich and harmonious.

Brothers, just take it!”

A dozen strong men, who were wearing waist-length water pants or simply wearing only four-sided pants, sang trumpets and slapped the water.

Although there are only a dozen acres of lotus fields in Ajie Lake, the lotus roots are mixed and deep into the mud. If all of them are raised, the amount will be very considerable, which is an additional income for the old and young men in the village.

With these lotus roots, the boys and wives at home can change into brand new clothes, and the elderly at home have money to eat some good supplements. The men in the mountains are so simple and simple, allowing the women in the family to live a good life and allow the elderly to enjoy their old age. Only then can they straighten up and become real men!

Zhou Dong sighed very much, what is positive energy? This is positive energy!

No matter when, labor is always the most beautiful!

If it weren't for Li Xiuchen and Shen Cheng and others' persuasion, he would have wanted to roll up his sleeves and go down to the lake to touch the lotus root. This was the first time since he was sick that he was in such a good mood and felt that he had endless strength all over his body.

Huai Liangren seemed to be shocked by the scene in front of him. This guy with a serious obsession with cleanliness actually sat directly on the grass by the lake, holding his cell phone to take a picture.

There are countless lotus roots that have become delicious food through his hands, but this is the first time I have seen the scene of lotus roots falling into the lake, and it feels very novel.

‘Watching the lake and getting lotus roots is exhausted and the young and strong are exhausted’, this is no joke. Compared to such hard work, moving bricks is simply a life that a god can live.

This job depends entirely on artificial intelligence, even today when artificial intelligence is rampant. After the lotus roots are touched, you must first find the location of the lotus root with your feet, and then you have to judge the lotus root path based on your experience. Then you have to bend down and find the lotus root roots from the lake mud, first cut off the roots, and then pull out the lotus roots bit by bit.

This process must not be reversed and disordered. If the root root is found in the wrong way, the good lotus root will be broken in the mud, and the lotus root will be considered to be useless if the mud and water enters the lotus root. After successfully cutting off the lotus root root, you have to rely entirely on the waist to pull out the lotus root.

How tiring is this job? Change to a fitness expert who has made pimples in the gym and you will know if you let him try it in the lotus pond. No need to do it, pulling more than a dozen lotus roots will make him unable to straighten his waist!

"Master Zhou, look, it's the best white lotus root."

Li Xiucheng took the piece of washed lotus root and ran over and handed it to Zhou Dong like a treasure.

"Not bad, even in our Chudu lotus root, it's a top-quality product!"

The white lotus root in Chudu has round pores and reasonable spacing, and the lotus root meat is moderately thin and thick. The whole body is smaller and more delicate than the southern lotus root. Moreover, the taste of this lotus root is absolutely not as meaty as it is blunt, and it is crisp and juicy at the entrance, without any residue.

The man Huai Liang came over to see him and nodded slightly.

Of course, he is not unfamiliar with Chu Du’s white lotus roots. You can see at a glance that the lotus root produced by Ajie Lake is of higher quality than ordinary white lotus roots.

If this lotus root is cooked, it will not turn gray-black. If it is used to stir-fry and cool, it is the best delicacy in the world and is definitely not comparable to ordinary lotus root.

So if people from Chudu go to the vegetable market to buy lotus root, they will ask first, is it really a local lotus root? The seller will smile and pat his chest and promise, don’t worry, no one can deceive us Chudu people. They are all serious white lotus roots. If you don’t eat well when you go back, you can even come back and overturn my stall!

Zhou Dong picked a few kilograms of white lotus roots and quickly turned back to Li Xiuchen's home. It was around 6 a.m. It was absolutely no problem to get the "Bilongyuanlin Jade Porridge" before noon.

After having breakfast made by Li Xiuchen's wife, Huai Liangren and Shen Cheng began to urge Zhou Dong.

These two people are more anxious than anyone else, and have been looking forward to this legendary porridge since last night.

"Biyuanlin Yu Porridge", this name is very high-end. Shen Cheng may want to watch the fun, but Huailiangren has already prepared to "steal the teacher".

Actually, it’s not a stealing master. Huailiangren has asked Zhou Dong a long time ago. Don’t refuse to watch when making porridge? Zhou Dong replied, “Look at it casually, it depends on yourself as much as you can learn… The green lotus root jade porridge is a single high skill given by the system. He can make it like the ancestor’s upper body, and he really can’t cherish it.”

Shen Cheng took the initiative to ask for help, and he had quickly washed the large iron pot from Li Xiuchen's family. Zhou Dong arranged for him to make lotus root powder. Making lotus root powder is very simple. Peel and slice the lotus root, put it in a juicer to squeeze it into juice. After it settles, it is filtered out with fine gauze, and then dried or dried.

Moreover, Zhou Dong does not require it to be dry, so it can be used by putting it in a cool place.

Although he didn't know why he needed lotus root powder to make porridge, Shen Cheng didn't ask and went to make it honestly.

Zhou Dong took the Cunjin cartilage that Li Xiuchen’s wife had just bought and used the master-level vegetable washing skills to clean it. Seeing that the mountain spring water in the big iron pot was slightly boiling, he poured the Cunjin cartilage into it and burned it. He didn’t use spices such as star anise and pepper, so he used a large amount of ginger slices and a small amount of green onion.

Huai Liangren nodded slightly when he saw it: "Do you want to use the soup made from Cunjin cartilage to make porridge base? Not bad, this is the way to Guangdong porridge, but isn't it too light?"

After all, I am an expert and I can see the key points at a glance; I need to use meat soup as the bottom of the pot, and common spices such as star anise and pepper are not allowed to be used because they will affect the color of the porridge and the taste is too bland.

However, if Guangdong porridge is made of meat, it must pay attention to the thick taste. Even fried ingredients such as salted fish can be used. Zhou Dong chose to make porridge with a small gold cartilage. People who love to behave will inevitably worry about the taste being light.

Zhou Dong looked at him: "What you want is lightness, you will know if you keep watching."

"Oh..." Huai Liangren nodded, as rare as an honest baby.

After pressing the heat of the big iron pot, Zhou Dong recorded the time and began to process the white lotus root. Huai Liangren hurriedly came to him, his eyes wide open, afraid of missing any details.

Zhou Dong first used the master-level vegetable washing skills to clean up a few pieces of lotus roots, slightly improving the quality of lotus roots. Then he cut off the bad taste at the head and tail. In the last bit, he cut two points and directly turned the tender lotus root that was originally about ten centimeters long into two.

This is how many pieces of lotus root are processed. It depends on his meaning that he is not going to slice or cut the lotus root into small pieces.

Huailiangren said wonderingly: "You wouldn't cook such a large piece of lotus root directly. Can this be delicious? Besides, this is not green lotus root."

Zhou Dong did not respond to him, picked up a piece of white lotus root with his left hand, and a silver needle with a head folded into forty-five degrees was already added in his right hand.

Huai Liangren was stunned. There was nothing he didn't know about the kitchen tools, but what kind of thing is this? It seems to be a silver needle used in traditional Chinese medicine?

No, this needle is much longer than an ordinary silver needle, and it also has an elbow.
