Villager of Daming

Chapter 1258: It's up to fate, there are guesses

"Let me tell you, Brother Hanhan's skewers are the best. When I was in Yingtian Prefecture, whenever I wanted to eat skewers, I would look for Brother Hanhan everywhere. The meat was also fresh, but once Brother Hanhan brushed it with his sauce, there was no fishy smell..."

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhu Chong told Gege Haji the story of the skewers.

Except for Zhu Wentian, even the palace maids were busy nearby. Fifteen meters away was Gege Haji's maid.

The closest one was naturally Zhu Wentian, who was in charge of grilling skewers and always had a simple smile on his face.

Gege Haji picked up a skewer of meat and started chewing it directly without using chopsticks, so of course he didn't need a knife either.

"The pieces of meat on the skewers are small, so it's easy to eat."

Gegehaji swallowed the meat and nodded, indicating that it was delicious, but he found that it was different from the meat he usually ate, in terms of size.

Zhu Chong took a sip of wine and said: "If it's too big, it's not easy to bake. Once the outside is burnt, you have to use a knife to cut it off, or use scissors to cut it.

A few large pieces of meat will fill you up, while small pieces can be used to slowly go with wine.

This kind of beer is made from malt, just like making maltose. The process is both simple and complex.

When it rains during the wheat harvest, the wheat will sprout. Generally speaking, when people encounter this situation, they can only blame God for being blind.

Ever since we started brewing beer, people no longer have to worry about not being able to sell their sprouted wheat.

At first, the purchase price for the people was based on the normal wheat price, but later, because we were worried that the people would not harvest the wheat properly, we lowered the price by half..."

Zhu Chong drank beer and talked about how to reduce the losses of the people. Since Gege Haji liked people's livelihood, he talked about people's livelihood.

Gege Haji was indeed interested. There was no need to worry about wheat sprouting, as it could be used to make wine. The remaining materials after making wine could be used to feed pigs, and they needed to be fermented again.

"Your Highness, why is this fermentation not written in the book?"

She recalled and found that there was no content about wine dregs in the booklet she found.

"Sister, that's not something most people can do. We're not brewing beer. If we're brewing liquor, it depends on what we use. If it's made from rice, the leftover rice husks can't be used to feed pigs.

Unless there are a large number of pigs raised, the lees will be used to feed the pigs, but the people do not know the technology and will end up feeding the pigs to death.

When it comes to matters concerning people’s livelihood, we must first consider the laziness of the people.

At the same time, some people will try to be clever, I used to be the same, always thinking that I have found a shortcut to the end of the world, but in fact..."

Zhu Chong began to talk about human nature again. He said that people who like to think for themselves have a positive side. If they think in the right way, it will naturally improve productivity.

If you make mistakes in some key areas, you will have to pay the price.

Ordinary people raise five or six pigs at home, which is considered a lot. They catch the pigs after the Chinese New Year and slaughter them at the end of the year.

Once something goes wrong, all the pigs will die. For the people, the loss will be too great and the pain will be unbearable.

Therefore, places where problems are likely to occur will not be made known to the people, and there is no need to save that cost.

The official breeding guided by Xiaqiu Village is not, and measures must be taken to reduce costs.

With a large scale, every one percentage point reduction in cost means a lot of money.

"Hmm! Hmm! Hmm..." Gegehaji was fascinated by what he was listening to, and hummed a few times from time to time.

What Zhu Chong told her was systematic knowledge, which she could not find in the books she got from the trade between Dingliao and Duwei.

"It turns out that the people are learning the simplest skills?" Gege Haji discovered the situation.

“The simpler it is, the easier it is to learn. We don’t expect ordinary people to engage in large-scale farming. Large-scale farming requires large quantities and strict hygiene requirements.

Disease prevention and control is the most difficult. If you are not careful, everyone will die. People say that even if you have a lot of wealth, the hair on the ground doesn’t count.

The more intensive the breeding, the greater the probability that livestock and poultry will get sick... that is, the greater the possibility. Yingtian Prefecture has an official breeding farm, the best of which is the ancestral home in Xiaqiu Village, which is responsible for breeding varieties..."

Zhu Chong continued to speak without reservation, saying that the other party had to follow him anyway, and even if the other party knew all this, he would be useless without the medicine.

Gegehaji's eyes lit up, and he felt that a wall in front of him had opened up, no, it was collapsed.

"Your Highness, do you want to arrange some guards around? My maid is not very good at fighting!"

Gegehaji became nervous. This was a difficult subject. What if someone coveted it?
"Don't worry, sister. There are people outside. We are safe here. Even if someone among your maids wants to assassinate you, they won't stand a chance. Fifteen meters, you know how far a meter is, it's written in the book."

Zhu Chong understood the other party's concerns. There was no one else around except Brother Hanhan.

Gegehaji glanced at the big gun and box next to the village guard and said, "Is it the heavy machine gun of Brother Hanhan?"

Zhu Chong shook his head: "It's too late. Someone rushed towards here from 30 meters away. It only took a breath to get here. The gun couldn't be raised fast enough.

But you see, the skewers we use for barbecue are made of iron, and this is a weapon for close-range quick reaction.

Brother Hanhan is grilling there. If someone wants to come over, Brother Hanhan will take care of him. This skewer is heavy."

"Ah?" Gegehaji's eyes widened again. She weighed the skewer in her hand and found that it was indeed heavy.

She watched the villagers again: "Brother Hanhan can throw a stick? His accuracy is so......"

"Puff~~" Before she could finish her words, a bird flew towards this side for unknown reason, or maybe it was just passing by, and fell from a low altitude of more than thirty meters.

There was a skewer stuck in the bird's body, and there was a piece of meat on the skewer!

Gegehaji: "..."

"Is it that amazing?" Her eyes remained that big and there was no way they could get any bigger.

She recalled that it was about thirty steps! That far?
A normal flying knife can only fly a dozen steps, and it will become inaccurate if the distance is far. What’s wrong with this village guard?
Zhu Chong gave his silly brother two thumbs up: "Brother Hanhan is very strong, it's natural, I don't know why, but he's very accurate when throwing skewers."

"Oh! It's really safe with Brother Hanhan around." Gegehaji nodded to show that he understood.

The two of them continued to talk about people's livelihood. Zhu Wentian thought they could talk about something else! It was just right to listen.

……

"Hanhan, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin and that...Gege Haji, the two of them..."

In the evening, the village head found Hanhan and ate skewers. They would speed up the march tomorrow and have their last rest today.

“In fact, I support it. Gege Haji is smart and she carries political significance.

That was the case with Guanyin slave at the beginning, but His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin didn't like it and was very resistant to it.

Now, Your Highness has revealed some of our people's livelihood conditions, and I did not stop it.

Xi'an Prefecture will develop rapidly in the future, so you have to think carefully when choosing a girl from a general's family. It will be even more troublesome if you choose one from a civil servant's family.

That’s it for now, just go with the flow!
Nahachu has many people. If his sister can have a stable home, his people will feel relieved. "

Zhu Wentian expressed his attitude, and judging from the developments, it was obvious that Zhu Chong was tempted by worldly desires.

"Then is Gege Haji okay?" The village head wanted to confirm.

"Didn't they say before that there was a master? Donulaji, actually Gegehaji. When they were chatting, I found that his knowledge was extraordinary."

Zhu Wentian revealed the identity of the master, and he was very sure.
