As an orphan, Zhang Xiaobao had always harbored a strong resentment towards his' parents'.
It was not only towards his own parents, but also towards other people's parents. The thing he hated the most was seeing parents beating their children. At the same time, he also envied and envied the children who were being coaxed.
This was something that had been ingrained in one's soul since young, and it was very difficult to get rid of. Fortunately, he had parents now, and his family was very harmonious. Therefore, after venting for a while, he returned to his original self.
He said to Xiao Yuan, "Just now, I was discussing the issue of world peace with your sister. Many things that lead to the destruction of countries start from scolding people."
"Really?" Xiao Yuan did not believe him.
"It's fake. It's wrong to scold people when you don't have the strength. If you have the strength, you can scold as much as you want. Let's go, I'll show you how smelly fish and rotten prawns can become delicious."
Zhang Xiaobao pulled Xiao Bei with one hand and Xiao Yuan with the other, and walked in the direction of the fishy smell. Wang Juan could only pull Pan Er and her sister.
The two little guys had short legs and short arms. They stretched out their arms and legs, and although their height and pace were clearly unreasonable, it made people feel that they were very harmonious when looking at them. The children were not tired at all, and would even occasionally run in front of the adults.
As the smell got stronger, they got closer and closer to the place where the dried seafood was made. The smell that made people feel uncomfortable at the beginning became addictive after smelling it for a while.
"It doesn't feel that bad anymore. I'm a little hungry," Xiao Yuan swallowed her saliva and looked up at her brother.
"Yeah, why?" Xiao Bei had the same feeling.
"It means that you still have some instincts and are not completely affected by habits. When making salted fish and prawns, other than salt, there are also fish and prawns that are fished out from the sea. Because the technology of long-distance fishing boats is still lacking, the initial processing can't keep up, and some fish and prawns will spoil.
The fishy smell you smell is from the protein. When it's in the rotten or half-rotten stage, it's easier for animals to absorb it when they eat it.
People with good lives can choose to eat things that are not rotten. After getting used to it, the body will no longer be immune to it, and it will be easy to get sick. Many animals do not have this condition, and continue to eat rotten food.
However, there is still a part of human nature that is inclined towards survival. Therefore, there is a desire to consume certain proteins and phospholipids. For example, stinky tofu. If it is not too salty when it is made, any baby a few months old will like to eat it because it is necessary for survival. "
Zhang Xiaobao was in a good mood at the moment, so he explained to his younger siblings.
"But I think children like sweets more." Behind him, Little Hai spoke up.
"Yes, they prefer to eat candy because it takes less time for the body to absorb and use the candy. The structure of the body and survival instincts are the conditions that determine this tendency. Whether you give it to herbivores, carnivores, or even insects, most of them eat candy because … because …"
Zhang Xiaobao couldn't remember anything as he spoke. He turned to look at Wang Juan. After all, he had learned a lot from Wang Juan after coming here.
The children were very smart and turned to look at their sister together.
Wang Juan rolled her eyes at Zhang Xiaobao again and said, "Because many creatures in the world are carbon-based life forms. Of course, there are other life forms besides carbon-based life forms, but we have found too few of them. As for sugar, it is the easiest carbohydrate in nature to be broken down and absorbed."
"I don't understand." Xiao Bei was confused. He lowered his head and sighed, saying, "I still haven't learned enough."
"You will know in the future. The more you know, the more you realize your ignorance. Not all questions have answers." Zhang Xiaobao also sighed. For a moment, a look of confusion appeared in his eyes.
"Yes, science is endless. The only right thing is the courage to study the unknown and to overthrow the conclusions of the predecessors. When you feel that something doesn't conform to science, it only proves that you have narrowed the scope of science. If you can't explain it for the time being, it doesn't mean that it's not scientific, but that the development of science is not perfect. At least, it can't explain it."
Wang Juan seemed to be saying this for her younger siblings, but in fact, she was saying this for Zhang Xiaobao. She knew that Zhang Xiaobao thought about how to come here, but she also didn't understand.
Perhaps many years later, people could give a scientific answer. Even the knowledge that elementary school students at that time could understand.
For example, many things in the world that seemed profound now were actually things that she learned as a child in science class. The Earth was round, the Sun was big, and the Earth was small. The Earth ran around the Sun. How simple was that?
When she was learning, she simply put her classmates in a room, and then released synchronized images from six directions at the same time, directly simulating the birth and evolution of the earth. It was a very simple technology, and it had been around for more than a hundred years.
'It's a pity that sister and brother don't have the ability to let you have a taste of it.' Wang Juan thought in her heart and looked at her younger siblings apologetically. At the same time, she asked Zhang Xiaobao, "When do you think the panoramic image can be made? It's useful for education. "
"We don't even have film now. I've urged the Ministry of Works twice, but they keep saying that it'll be soon. I'm afraid that I'll put too much pressure on them, so it's not good to urge them again. It's more useful for military affairs. Let's go. Let's take a look at our salted fish first.
Zhang Xiaobao shook his head and continued to walk forward.
"Isn't it better to make canned food? Why do we have to eat salted fish? Yes, canned food is canned food, and salted vegetables are salted vegetables. The cost of the food for individual soldiers in the inner courtyard is too high. We can't supply a large amount of it to the army. "
Wang Juan muttered. She was pulled along by the two impatient little fellows and continued to walk forward.
When they reached the drying area, everyone couldn't stand it anymore. The smell was too strong in the air. Everyone went to the logistics warehouse to get a big mask. They felt much more comfortable wearing it, mainly because many floating particles were blocked by the mask.
"There are good and bad salted fish, right?" Xiao Yuan asked as he circled around a rope with many salted fish hanging on it. He pointed at a dried fish with sunken eyes and black gills.
"Yes, especially the fish head. It'll be removed after it's dry. Otherwise, it'll be easy to get poisoned after eating it. We're keeping it now so that it's convenient to hang it up and dry. Those whose heads have fallen off can only be put on a flat surface to dry. It's now in the storage period for the army," Zhang Xiaobao explained.
"Won't you get poisoned if you eat a salted fish without a head?" Xiao Bei asked.
"There's also the possibility of getting poisoned, but there's no other way. We have to enrich the people's dining tables as much as possible. It's our fault that our skills aren't good enough. Food is the most important thing for the people. This is also why I'm against wasting food. Since ancient times, many dynasties have changed because of food. Of course, there's a rebellion when there's no food to eat."
Zhang Xiaobao said as he patted his sister's head.
Xiao Bei blinked and ran to the side of a big salted fish. He pointed at the fish and said, "Shall we eat salted fish tonight?"
"Okay, I have to choose properly. I can't let you guys get poisoned." Zhang Xiaobao really went to choose the fish as he spoke.
