Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 64

Liu Mu stared at the tied pig, but did not make a move for a long time.

Just seeing this pig, Liu Mu couldn't help thinking of himself.

Being in Chang'an, one is destined to be unable to escape this huge vortex, but without any background behind him, it is impossible to become a rich man in Chang'an.Everything in history books, on TV, and in novels made me seem to understand Datang, but now it seems that my thinking is simple.

The pig died, and Li Bi asked, "What should I do next?"

"Set fire, burn."

"Burn?" Li Bi really didn't understand.Is this whole pig just set on fire?
In fact, it is burning. This is called whole burning. It is not to cook the pig, but to burn the pig hair clean.

Wash it after burning, and then Liu Mu began to direct people to divide the meat.

"You ask someone to wash the intestines, clean the inside and the outside.

"You, go prepare green salt, rope.

For a pig, Liu Mu allocated dozens of shares in detail, and there was not much wasted on him.The pig's pancreas was thrown on the ground, and it was thrown together with the pig's offal.

A servant was about to pick it up, but he stretched out his hand and then backed away.

There is scented washing here, so what is the use of soap?

The elbow was added with a little nitrate, then salted and tied tightly with a rope to hang it on the shelf. The intestines still need to be processed, and the sausage filling is estimated to wait the day after tomorrow.

It's not easy to make casings with this native method.

First, after the pig is slaughtered, the pig intestines are taken out immediately, and the lard is separated from the small intestine before it is cold.At this time, the small intestine still has some temperature, and it is time to start cleaning up the debris in the intestine.

Then come down and rinse with warm water.

The lavaged small intestine is filled with water again, and then wrapped around a wooden stick in circles, and finally put the wooden stick in the water tank.

It needs to be soaked for at least a day, so the willow stuffed sausage still needs to wait.

Braised meat, willow willow many internal organs, as well as pig's trotters and pig tails, are all stewed in large and small casserole.At this time, it was past midnight, and there were servants watching, and it would take until tomorrow morning.

But Liu Mu still didn't sleep.

He is using a casserole to roast the seeds, roasting the seeds of Jiangnan Brassica.

Sitting next to the small stove, Li Bi watched intently: "I don't understand why you must have the seeds of Jiangnan brassica, but not the seeds of Guanzhong brassica."

"Learning, this is learning." Liu Mu made a pass.

In fact, it's really about learning.In the Tang Dynasty, brassica was indeed divided into north and south. The north was passed down from Europe on the original Silk Road, or it was the original species, or it had been hybridized with turnip, and then it became Chinese cabbage, which is later generations of Chinese cabbage. Prototype.

In the south of the Yangtze River, it is hybridized with cabbage that is also native to Asia Minor.

This is the prototype of rapeseed flowers in later generations.

In fact, when Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage, and black rapeseed grow old, they will all produce young, and they can also be used to extract oil.

Some cabbages taste bitter in the mouth when they are old. This is an atavistic phenomenon of plants, not that the vegetables are broken.

Then there is the oil pressing, where there are large pieces of wood, and the powerful guards use sledgehammers to drive into the wedges.

He was busy until two or three o'clock in the morning, and then Liu Mu went back to sleep.

The next day, when it was daylight, Liu Mu didn't wake up naturally, but was woken up by Li Dejian.

"What's the hurry?" Liu Mu was very unhappy to be woken up.

"Something happened." Li Dejian looked serious, and then Li Bi followed in.

Liu Mu turned over and got up, grabbed the already cold water at the head of the bed near the window, poured it on the palm of his hand and slapped it on the face: "Why, what happened."

"Our agents in Sanyuan and Jingyang privately sent people to tell the people I sent that as long as they mentioned the goods, they would all be bought on the day of delivery, and he dared not not sell them. Repackaged, with four sticks per box, it is 99 pennies to take away."

"Great." Liu Mu praised first.

After the compliment, Liu Mu asked again, "Where's Chang'an?"

"The shop in Chang'an is guarded by Huaimo and Baolin, and no one dares to mess around." After Li Dejian finished speaking, Li Bi followed him and said, "Whoever he is, take someone to break his leg before we talk about it." .”

"Wait, wait." Liu Mu stopped Li Bi.

That's right, this matter is too small, so small that it's not worth alarming these dukes.If it is possible to disturb matters at the Duke level, like Yu Chigong breaking the legs of dozens of people, and then going to the Taiji Palace to quarrel, it is also a solution.

"Let's find out first, who is doing this?" Liu Muxin said, since the other party did not dare to touch Chang'an's business, it means that the influence is not very strong.Let's find out who it is first, and then talk about how tough the background is.

"You don't need to ask, that person's surname is Dou, and he's just a steward. His master's name is Dou Shikuan, who is now a secretary of the Economic and Economic Bureau of the Prince's Mansion. And this Dou is a relative of the emperor, and his aunt is the queen who died. But he is a concubine, So he can't be attached to the imperial prestige. And his boss is that literary slave named Wei Zheng." Li Bi obviously had already made an investigation.

In fact, Li Bi was only one of his subordinates who recognized the steward.

The rest are all in the database. Who is in the Prince's Mansion, what official position they have, and what background these people have. Just as the Prince's Mansion makes the King Qin's Mansion very clear, the main personnel of the Prince Qin's Mansion also know who is in the Prince's Mansion.

"I'll think about it." Liu Mu was not in a hurry. "Can you inquire about the relationship between this matter and the green material?"

"Yes, we will see the result within three days." Li Bi replied confidently to Liu Mu, and then said: "If this matter gets further up, we will report it."

Li Bi made it clear that they were small and weak, and if the Prince's Mansion had big figures behind them to support them, they could only go up to rescue them.

"Inquire first."

At this time, an angel arrived outside the door.

There is no imperial decree, only an oral order.

"Mr. Mu Xiaolang, the sage asked the miscellaneous family to tell you that you are allowed to propose marriage. But the man who is asking for marriage is not a good matchmaker or not qualified enough. If the sage is not happy, then you will be in trouble."

"Yes!" Liu Mu hurriedly replied.

Li Bi sent up the gold leaf, but that person stretched out his hand to block it: "Little boy, Miscellaneous family came here in person to show you this little thing."

It was Peng Hai who came, and he blocked Li Bi as soon as he stretched out his hand.

Li Dejian hurriedly whispered in Liu Mu's ear: "This is Supervisor Peng Hai, the sage's personal attendant."

Liu Mu knew in his heart that this person's status was high enough, and Li Bi's level was not enough to give gifts to Peng Hai, let alone talk about rewards.Immediately, he took two steps forward: "The sage works all day long for state affairs, and I'm just a peasant in the countryside. But I heard from the people that you are a sage wholeheartedly, Supervisor Peng, and it is a blessing for the people to have you take care of the sage."

"En." Peng Hai replied flatly.

He didn't like to hear such flattering words, but he also wanted to hear what Liu Mu was trying to express.

"Peng Dajian, please go to the sage on behalf of the sage, and the sage will do his best. In the new year, although he is just a countryman, he hopes to have the opportunity to offer his heart to the sage on behalf of Princess Changping. I hope the sage will be here again Give Xiaomin a chance with his busy schedule."
