Villager of Daming

Chapter 1095: Skilled in the industry: golden jujube

The place for lunch is not far from the river, but not by the river. It is in the open space of the village next to it.

The open space in the village is actually the village road, with mountains behind it.

After drinking from the water surface, the river water is obviously not good, so we have to use well water. There is a well in the village, and the pipe of the water pump goes down to pump it out.

By the way, I invite the villagers to eat together, so there is no missing meal.

The common people provided vegetables from the garden. They were not paid for the vegetables, but soap and soap were given to the common people.

There are wealthy families who grow large vegetable plots and sell them to the county town. Obviously, their own family cannot eat all the food.

The princes took the officials to pick vegetables in other people's vegetable fields. Whether an official understands people's livelihood can be known from the moment he enters the vegetable field.

No matter how naughty the children in the village are, once they enter the vegetable field, they must walk in the ditch without touching the platform.

When picking cucumbers on the shelf, you should look at the size of the cucumbers. If you don't pick cucumbers that are one inch long, they will not taste good and will be bitter, unless they have been frost-beaten.

When picking cucumbers, cowpeas, and eggplants, pinch the back instead of pulling, otherwise the seedlings will be damaged.

In order to prevent officials from pinching, the team provides bamboo knives. Metal knives cannot be used. After cutting with a metal knife, there is a high probability that the vine will rot upward from the place where it was cut.

Normally, the nails of the thumb are long, so pinch them with your nails, one at a time.

In farming families, children find that they can't pinch the vines, so they would rather bite the vines behind them than pull them.

If it doesn't work, it's like picking cucumbers, turning, turning the cucumbers, until the seedlings at the back are broken.

Holding the seedlings at the back with one hand and turning the cucumbers with the other hand, the children have many ways to get the vegetables out without damaging the seedlings.

There are indeed some officials in the team who don't understand. They have been officials since they were young.

However, they don't know how to pick vegetables, but they understand the ways of the world. Looking at others, they would rather not pick vegetables than make mistakes.

"They are all good babies! It's a pity...we are destined to have different fates, right?"

Director Fang Dachuan of Xiashan Village watched the children in Xiaqiu Village operate and felt that any one of them was good.

Zhu Wentian took his friends into the vegetable field. Not only did he not damage other people's vines when picking vegetables, he also adjusted the positions of others' hemp ropes to tie the vines.

Cucumbers and cowpeas need to be beaten, and a stick should be inserted next to the eggplant seedlings so that the eggplant seedlings can grow straight. They also need to be tied.

If the climbing frame is not tied, the seedlings will easily not climb along the pole and droop.

As the seedlings grow taller, most people don't have time to adjust the binding position, so the children in Xiaqiu Village untie them, move them around, and then tie them up.

This is not the case in greenhouses. The greenhouses in Xiaqiu Village use hanging wires, which are very advanced in technology and are grown scientifically.

Looking at the technique, Fang Dachuan felt that these children were his own children, which was great.

The same goes for the four princes. That’s called skill!

If you see a small cucumber that you can’t pick, then don’t touch it. If you touch it, it won’t grow.

……

The people in the village were called back as soon as they participated. They lined up, the doctor checked their pulse, and the children held popcorn sticks to eat.

People with missing teeth naturally start to bite their teeth, and some teeth are leaking and have to be filled.

Some teeth have severe leakage and expose nerves. To kill the nerves, you would use a needle to pick out the nerves without anesthesia.

Normally, if the pulp of the tooth picks up the nerve, it can be overcome without anesthesia, and the pain will go away smoothly at a time.

If you use needle anesthesia, you have to wait for the tooth to grow back. It will take half a month for the area where the anesthesia was applied to recover. It is more likely that the ulcer will become serious, and you will need to spray watermelon cream or Bingbo powder.

After picking out the nerve, wait for two days, drink some anti-inflammatory medicine, and the blockage will be done. In some cases, the nerve will be blocked directly without exposing the nerve. "This team is so awesome! They can do anything!" Fang Dachuan was envious again.

"Cousin, the prince's team is required to suddenly encounter enemy forces and be able to immediately stabilize the battlefield and then follow up with logistics to counterattack and destroy the enemy."

As the county magistrate, Fang Dashan has always shouldered this responsibility. During the war, the county had special warehouses to store things.

It's just that the prince's team is more powerful and can make everything instantly, including cosmetics.

So many things that I thought were precious before can now be made in Xiaqiu Village at any time.

Listening to them now, they need to adjust the scent of perfume. During drought, the scent of orchids is stronger, but they are more likely to die.

"Jujubes are the sweetest when there is a drought. Can we pick the jujubes in Miyun? Turn around and go there, then leave from there."

Ling'er recalled what Brother Hanhan said. At this time of year, in Miyun County, there are golden jujubes with high sugar content.

It coincides with the drought, and the dates are sweeter.

After being preserved and fermented a little, the dates are torn open like honey, and they are made into wine dates, which you can’t get enough of.

"At this time, the dates are ready to be harvested, but they are still a little green and require further treatment."

Zhao Yao, who participated in politics, spoke out at this time. This was his job. He was familiar with the specialties of the entire Beiping Province, and then contacted people in department stores to exchange and learn from each other.

"Don't use green dates, pick them later, don't rush, otherwise the sugar content will be low. Many people only know that dates are red, but they don't know when they are still green.

Pick the half-green and half-red dates, simmer them until they turn completely red, and then dry them in the sun to cause a saccharification reaction.

The later the date is picked, the more sugar it contains, and the more drought it is, the sweeter it is. Such dates must maintain good humidity, and wine dates are the best way to handle them. "

Ling'er was afraid that the officials would be anxious, so she sent someone to collect the dates in advance.

We finally encountered a drought. It was the right time for jujubes to be delicious, so we picked them early. What a pity!
During the previous drought, the village often stocked up on dates from drought-stricken areas, used them as medicinal materials, and dried them before putting them there.

There are no jujube trees in some places, and people don't know what jujubes look like, thinking they are all red.

In fact, jujubes are often punched when they are half green and half red, and then turn red when they mature naturally.

Like rice, the longer the sunshine time, the better, and the larger the temperature difference, the better, which is conducive to the accumulation of biological sugars.

At the beginning, due to transportation and administrative restrictions, the best locations for jujube were in Shandong, northern Hebei, Shanxi, and Gansu.

This line is the best latitude for growing wheat. Wheat is good, jujube is good, and cotton is good.

Later, with the development of transportation, administration, and economy, I realized that the best jujubes are in Xinjiang, as are cotton, but not wheat.

In order to maintain the taste of dates, some places make wine dates, which are delicious and more fragrant than eating dates directly.

The wine dates made from golden jujubes from Miyun County, Beiping Prefecture are simply delicious...

The government officials who had just thought about sending people to collect the dates suddenly stopped, but thankfully they didn't say anything.

"There are also wild jujube trees in the mountains behind our village. I have never eaten jujubes. Who would have thought of soaking them in wine?"

The mayor Fang Dachuan, who was unwilling to be left alone, answered the call again. He was working very hard and had no bad intentions. He just wanted to participate.

"It's not the growth in the room." Ling'er didn't get angry and treated it normally: "The wine dates actually ferment naturally, but the thing that promotes them the most is an empty wine jar.

Put the dates in a sealed jar, let the dates ferment for a while, and alcohol will appear.

If you use a wine jar to store it, the process will be even shorter. If it is even shorter, you can just put in white wine, which is the same as pickling salted duck eggs."
