Chapter two hundred and thirty fourth well

The reason why I have to go to the market is not only to get racks of eels, but also to buy two ingredients.

Crispy pork slices is a famous Sichuan dish, a classic among non-spicy Sichuan dishes.

The method is to put a wok on the fire, add pork oil to heat, put the meat slices into the wok and stir-fry until smooth and set aside.

Then leave the oil in the pot, add the mushrooms, magnolia slices, soak the peppers, ginger, garlic and onions, stir-fry for a while, add the meat slices and stir-fry evenly, add the gravy, add the pea sprouts, reduce the juice slightly, remove from the pot and put it into a bowl.

Put the crispy rice into a boiling vegetable oil pan, fry until it turns yellow, pick it up when it floats, put it into a nest plate, and pour a small amount of boiling oil over it.

Serve the crispy rice and the fried pork slices at the same time. While the oil is hot, pour the meat slices on the crispy rice. After a swishing sound, the crispy pork slices are done.

If the pork slices are replaced with three-fresh squid, this dish is called crispy squid, which is an upgraded version of the crispy pork slices.

In the past, this dish was very troublesome because you had to make the rice crackers yourself, but now it is easy. There are ready-made rice crackers on the market, and they are just thin rice pancakes with the shape of a pot bottom. They are very authentic.

Such a big crispy rice cake and a squid crispy rice cake will definitely not be used up, but the benefits are endless. It is fried and sprinkled with pepper and salt. It is definitely a popular refreshment in the study salon.

After buying the materials, you can go directly to the comprehensive market on the second floor, which mainly sells daily necessities, sugar, wine, beverages, condiments and the like.

From the exit here, you reach the slope of Zhangjiagou. After perfectly avoiding Mr. Hu on the first floor, Zhou Zhi sneaked to the Black Bean Flower Restaurant at the north entrance and had a bowl of bean curd rice before returning home satisfied.

The soup stock had been steamed. Zhou Zhi took out the insulated lunch box that he had used when he was hospitalized and poured the soup into it: "Grandma, I'm going to cook for Grandpa Zhao."

"Yes, yes." Grandma asked, "Is Dr. Zhao satisfied with the new cushion?"

"I haven't seen him yet, I'm a busy man." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I'll ask him later. No matter what his attitude is, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

Grandma patted Zhou Zhi's thigh with the half-filled insole of the thread in her hand: "Don't think Grandma can't understand your wisecracks! Why doesn't the monk go with you?"

"It's time for the monk to go home. He won't come back until after the Chinese New Year. There are many guests at home these days, and the chicken pen upstairs is full. I will take one from the refrigerator to Xin Yi's house. At noon, you tell Dad, I will give it to the refrigerator

Make room."

"When you have time, you can also take one to Dean Sanfan. It may have saved your life." Grandma said, "And your godfather."

"Uncle Santan can do it." Zhou Zhi nodded: "But forget about the godfather. I guess I can't even find the ginger and garlic in that house, so it's better to ask the whole family to come over for convenience."

"That's why I asked you to give me chicken!" Before he could finish his words, another insole said: "Just ginger slices, peppercorns and salt. You can stew it and come back."

"Okay, okay, then I have to kill him." Zhou Zhi nodded: "Then tell dad, I will kill him."

"Why don't you kill them? You and Yang He were very handy at getting the frogs they caught in the toilet, right?"

"Amitabha." Zhou Zhi feigned the Buddha's name: "Wasn't it true that he was ignorant when he was a child? Besides, it's enough to have a chicken butcher in the family. I'll start the killing when I have to."

"It's up to you to take care of it! Go quickly!"

Carrying ingredients and frozen chickens, they went up the mountain along the stone steps and called Jiang Shuyi to the dormitory of the agricultural machinery company. The two of them walked together towards the dormitory of the Urban Construction Bureau where Zhang Xinyi's family was located.

When passing through the camphor forest, the two stopped for a while in front of the well.

This well is very deep and the water is extremely clear. Of course no one comes here to fetch water now. Only Doctor Zhao insists that the water here is good and often comes to fetch some for making tea.

Zhou Zhi didn’t know why Imperial Doctor Zhao knew that the water here was good. In short, no one cared about the water in this well after the tap water was connected. After many years, the water quality of this well was tested as a "selenium well".

, everyone rushed to fetch water again, even climbing uphill and uphill.

In fact, Zhou Zhi really wants to do a popular science, that is, the human body can only absorb selenium through selenium-rich foods. The mineral selenium in spring water cannot be directly absorbed by the human body, so the selenium-rich spring water is not really helpful to the body.

"There are several wells in Jiachuan." Jiang Shuyi said.

"That's right, not to mention the countless wells in the surrounding countryside, there are several famous ones in the city." Zhou Zhi nodded: "The most famous one should be the Sifang Well in Renjiagou. That well is not deep, only more than half a meter.

, but it is very large, with a side length of almost one and a half meters, which is enough to provide water for the residents of Renjiagou Street."

"There is also the water in our school, but the water contains fluoride, so you can't drink it. You can only wash clothes and clean."

"This well and the well outside the weather station are actually quite famous. There is nothing much about the well itself. The main thing is that it is well repaired, with a stone platform, a well railing, and carved flowers and words. It is very valued."

"This place is very remote. Why is it so important?"

"Because this is where the Jiachuan culture was in the old days. The building above the stone steps we just walked through was a teacher training school for cultivating local teachers. In fact, it was a Confucian Temple in the past."

"The Confucian Temple is the place where Confucius is worshiped. Next to it is the Academy, which was the highest academic institution in Jiachuan at that time, and this well was for them to drink from."

"There are camphor trees on this hill. Camphor trees are the best material for building book boxes. Because they contain volatile camphor oil, they prevent insects."

"And there is a very peculiar place, Shuyi, have you noticed?"

"What's so strange?"

"Compared to the surrounding area, the terrain here is quite high, but the water level in this well is very shallow from the surface. So the question arises - where does this water come from?"

"Eh? I don't think so even if I don't tell you, it's true." Jiang Shuyi looked around in surprise: "The water level of this well - it's almost, almost on the top of the mountain."

Zhou Zhi pushed aside the dead branches on the edge of the stone platform beside the well, revealing a section of stone slab with a water tank engraved on it: "Look, this is the channel for delivering water. Pump the water out and pour it into the water tank, and the water will flow all the way to the training school below.

Go and put a stone jar there, and you will have water to drink."

"But where did this water come from?" Jiang Shuyi still didn't understand.

Zhou Zhi pointed to a mountain range in the distance outside the forest: "That's Mount Anle. Legend has it that there is a spring under this well, which is connected to the spring in Liu Zhen's Cave on Mount Anle."

"But you said last time that Anle Mountain is fifteen miles away from the city. This is amazing."

"It's very miraculous, but what's even more miraculous is that someone can actually find this place and know that a well can be drilled here, right?"

"Indeed." Jiang Shuyi nodded: "If they can find it so accurately, there must be some way. Is it recorded in ancient books?"

"There are a few items in "The Complete Book of Agricultural Affairs", but overall there are not many records, but there are more proverbs. For example, 'Bay to bay, the water never dries up.' 'When the mountain turns, there is water.'

It's easy to sit in a well."

"What is the treasure land of Zuoji?"

"Just like Yang He's family."

"Ah, I understand, it's true!"
