Reborn Peasant Girl: I Rely on Carpentry as Minister of Industry

Chapter 77 Sour Plum Soup
Jiang Changan came home early, old man Jiang was still arranging wood in the backyard, second child Jiang and old lady Jiang were helping, and Mrs. Yao was making clothes in the house.

Jiang Lao Er bought a lot of fabrics, but the first one had to be made for the two elderly people in the family, which is a necessary filial piety.

Yao knows everyone's size, and he can make it quickly. It's still the kind with a few embroidery on the neckline and cuffs, which looks much more high-end than ordinary clothes.

The old man Jiang was about to go back to the kitchen to drink water, when he looked up and saw Jiang Changan who was about to enter the door, the happy face said, "Changan! Picture."

He stopped halfway through the conversation, because Jiang Changan was followed by many people, what?Is it not good to talk about blueprints in front of so many people?

Woodworking blueprints are equal to kung fu secrets of martial arts, secret recipes of chefs, the old man Jiang worked as a cow and a horse for many years before he learned some fur.

So if Jiang Changan draws the blueprint, he is quite unwilling to let outsiders see it.

"The drawing is ready, please take a look." Jiang Changan didn't understand the pain in Old Man Jiang's heart, so he took out the blueprint without hesitation, spread it out, and showed Old Man Jiang.

Old man Jiang's eyes lit up, he glanced at it, and quickly put away the drawings, "Why did you bring someone back?" His tone could not be described as resentful, her granddaughter is good at everything, but she is too careless.

"The students are interested in the carts, I will take them to have a look around."

Why, it’s not enough to show the drawings, you also have to teach others how to do it?The old man Jiang wanted to cry, "How can our exclusive technology be opened to outsiders?"

These little bastards are too ignorant, how could they come here to steal the teacher?

Now, even the youngest people felt a bit embarrassed, they didn't come to steal a teacher, I don't know if the old man believes it or not.

"It doesn't matter, they are just strange, even if they learn it, it's okay. The carpentry market is not saturated, and the construction of Dasong also needs them as pillars."

This is where it goes, such a backward dynasty, some are waiting for development and construction, and this is just carpentry technology, not weapon forging, and it does not endanger the safety of the country and the people, so there is nothing to cover up.

As soon as Jiang Changan's words fell, the students immediately respected her.

Starting from pottery making, whether it was salt making, ice making, car making or drawing paper, Jiang Changan never wanted to hide them from them. It turned out that he regarded them as the pillars of the country and looked forward to building the future of Dasong with them. ?

This foresight and tolerance are exactly the same as Master Song.

The mood of the students suddenly became heroic, as if they had a different but the same goal all of a sudden, to study hard and build Dasong.

They also finally understood why Master Song not only taught them knowledge from books, but also taught them martial arts, farming, and all useful skills.

Combining work and rest, you can really learn more.

Shen Shikang became enlightened as if he had been connected to Ren and Du's two veins, so he bowed to Jiang Chang'an and saluted him as a teacher.

Jiang Changan grew up too fast, and her achievements were beyond compare, and many people finally saw the reason from her, so there was no reason not to work hard. All of them came from ordinary families, and they were not self-willed at all. capital.

"Chang'an Dayi, we will definitely study hard and live up to your hard work."

Jiang Changan smiled, "Okay." If you can bear the hardship, then learn it.

Old man Jiang has nothing to say, children have children's ideas, so let them go.

"You take the drawings and go to the backyard to look at the materials first, and I'll ask my mother to cook some ice soup."

The students were overjoyed, and they all looked forward to it. Drinking ice soup in summer is a treat only for wealthy families. Now they all use saltpeter to make ice, which is another fun in summer, which is very good.

Several classmates shrugged and followed old man Jiang to the backyard of the Jiang family.

"Ling'er, what soup do you want?" Did she hear correctly?Iced soup?But their house didn't dig an ice cellar, where did the ice come from?Yao shi came out of the room when he heard the movement.

"Sour plum ice soup, mother, ice can be made from saltpeter, that is, this stone, crushed into powder and added to water to absorb heat, the water will become cold and turn into ice.

You can use a basin to make it, put a bucket of water in the middle, and chill the sour plum soup in the bucket.

It just so happens that grandma has sunned a lot of red bayberries this year, so I can borrow some to cook. "There are two big red bayberry trees in the backyard of Jiang's family. They can't eat up and sell the fruit every year, so Mrs. Jiang took them to dry.

Occasionally, when guests come, you can add some sugar to cook it into a sweet and sour soup, which is still very good, of course, it would be better if you add ice.

"So this white stone is saltpeter?" I thought it was so rare, but Jiang Changan carried a lot of it back yesterday and put it in the yard.

In the past, her stepmother spent a lot of money to buy it back and hide it like a treasure. In fact, tsk tsk, a mountain in their countryside is full of saltpeter.

Yao Shi suddenly felt that he was very rich.

"Yeah, I'm making ice right now, mother, you can make soup, remember to add more sugar." Ice soup is only delicious if it's sweet and sour, and there are not many girls who don't like it.

"Okay." Yao went to cook the soup.

Jiang Changan took a few pieces of saltpeter and crushed it into powder, then poured it into a large basin, poured a lot of water into it, and let it stand still.

Then I went to cut a few bamboos to make a tube, and cut a stick in the middle for preparation. Well, I want to drink ice soup, but, it can also be made into popsicles, which is the child's favorite.

There is mint in the backyard, and some glutinous rice flour at home, ready-made materials, Jiang Changan quickly started to work.

When there was no one around the saltpeter basin, Jiang in the third room secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Do you think you can really make ice?" Wouldn't it be developed?
Yesterday, the Jiang family was still talking about what Jiang Changan was doing with the ominous white stone at home, but could it be used to make ice?
Ice is very valuable in summer, and they can also make ice picks and sell it on the street. Isn’t it very profitable?Shi Shi suddenly couldn't sit still.

"If it's really saltpeter, it must be able to make ice." The book said, Jiang Laosan knew it, but he didn't know saltpeter.

"Let's go and see? The operation steps are so simple. If we want to really make ice, we can go to the street to sell ice yin, and then we don't have to work in the fields and make money easily." Jiang's dream is to be his own boss.

"This, isn't it? Isn't this peeping, the second child will kill us, right?" It was the time when the second room was in a good mood, and Jiang's third child was cowardly in an instant.

"You are stupid, you little fool didn't hide it at all. The boy from Landlord Li's house watched the whole process when the pottery was being burnt; now the carpentry skills are all watched by those classmates; the saltpeter was recited by many classmates for her yesterday, maybe She had already told others about the recipe.

We're just going to see it now, what kind of peeping?
If you want me to say, the little fool is still the same little fool, and now he has a dog that eats and crawls around, how generous and friendly to outsiders, he is stingy to us uncles and aunts. "

If the little fool is willing to help them who are uncles, do they need to be thieves to peep?Sure enough, people can't rely on anyone, they can only rely on themselves, so some technical secrets must be grasped in their own hands.

Carpentry and pottery are too difficult, but making ice and cooking soup is easy.

"Don't talk about it, let her hear it, what should I do if I don't even want to see the children of the third room? You look at Jiarong, you know that if you go to please the little fool, you will have meat."

It made Jiang Laosan envious.
