Villager of Daming

Chapter 142 Why are court officials busy (second update)
At noon, the business started, and the food samples were still pushed out for everyone to see, and the children stopped shouting.

Additional services were provided yesterday, not today.

Yesterday, I told the diners that there will be lunch at noon from today, and the first 100 people will get an extra gift of salted dried tofu.

Then there was a constant turn over of the table, and some people were even willing to carry a tray to the side to squat to eat.

These are people who work, they are not fools, they can estimate.

Going to other places to eat something costs two or three pennies. Generally, there is no dish, and you can either eat steamed buns, fried dumplings, or rice noodles...

It costs three Wen here, and you can eat three vegetarian dishes. The agreed ration is one dish, one spoon, and one meal, one bowl.

The children who are responsible for ordering food will always give more, and the children who give food will press hard with the rice board.

People who buy rice feel that they have earned money, and the children are so kind and simple.

They didn't know that this operation was arranged before, and everything that you can see and move you is planned.

Of course, if you didn't cheat you, Xiaqiu Village wouldn't cheat you for a penny to make a fortune.

This lunch box is just to play with the children, to exercise, and to show some people in the court.

If the village is short of money, will it make money by selling boxed meals?Bento is a low-tech industry, and the value of additional profit alone is low.

The current social environment does not allow for rapid expansion, industrial chains, and penetration of the government, industrial and agricultural institutions, and educational institutions.

For example, with Yingtianfu as the center and other surrounding state capitals as the target, government students are given the qualification to cook.

Like Nanjing, Yingtianfu, the Qinhuai River and other rivers, everyone raises ducks, which is easier than raising chickens and geese.

Chickens eat meat, but they cannot go to the river to fish for food, and geese can go down the river, so basically they don't eat much meat.

Only meat and vegetables are not taboo for ducks, and anything is fine, so Nanjing has been the main producing area of ​​ducks since ancient times.

Therefore, a branch model has appeared in the duck shop. Wang's Laoya Soup has three stores in Nanjing, which belong to the family model.

"I'm the first one hundred. I came earlier. You remember wrongly. You didn't give me dried salted beans." A person who ate a box lunch with three Wenqian said to the child who was clearing the table.

He has big arms and round waist, big eyes, looks very... imposing?
The child glanced at the other party's tray. There was no food in the rice bowl, and the dishes were gone. He smiled at the other party: "Wait a moment!"

He picked up the other party's rice bowl and soup bowl and left, and came back in a few tens of breaths with more than half a bowl of rice, a bowl of duck soup, and a portion of dried salted tofu.

"Here, eat slowly." The child continued to clear the table after he finished speaking.

The man looked at the things in front of him, pursed his lips, lowered his head, slowly picked up the chopsticks, and suddenly raised his head: "Do you have any strength to do?"

"The water in the tank is not full." The child thought about it and gave a thing.

"Okay!" The man responded, quickly finished his meal, got up and looked around, saw the well and the bucket next to it, he walked over and shook his head.

Quickly filled two buckets of water, without using the pole next to it, picked up a bucket with one hand and asked another child: "Where is the water tank?"

"I'll take you there, thank you!" The child led the way.

The man followed behind to the water tank, poured two buckets of water into it, and then came back to continue filling the water.

Four times in a row, he filled all three half-filled water tanks before showing a relieved smile.

He found the child who was giving him extra food just now: "I'll go! Your food is so delicious."

"See you tomorrow!" The child replied with a big smile.

"I'll come to your house to eat tomorrow." The man nodded vigorously, turned around and strode away.

At the second quarter of the first day, it was almost 03:30 in Zhu Wentian's time, and there were only a dozen or so people eating, and the others were busy working to support their families.

The guards helped to wash the tableware, first pass the water on one side, wipe it with a rag dipped in the alkali surface, and then wash it clean, and put the empty water on the side.

The table will not be removed for the time being. Someone is eating. It is impolite to remove the table next to it.

Zhu Wentian and his friends wiped the table again, including the table legs, and the chief followed him: "There are still many poor people!"

Zhu Wentian turned his head to look at the chief, what do you mean?Was the village rich before?

"Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty has not long been established, and a thousand wastes are waiting to be rejuvenated, but this way of managing the world and helping the people is so mysterious and so wonderful!"

Li Chang put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, turned around, and was facing the sun just now.

"Basin, take it." Zhu Wentian shouted, help me get the basin, what sky are you looking at?Do you want to worry about the country and the people?You are the chief, not the chief.

"Oh." The head of the village turned around to help hold the basin: "I'm just thinking about it for a while, as a high-ranking official, maybe you think about it all day long?"

"Hey hey hey!" Zhu Wentian smiled.

The chief looked around and sighed, then continued to move the basin.

When the last guest leaves, everything that should be cleaned up is finished, and everyone eats.

After the meal, the children took a nap and got up to recite and write, drink some cold drinks by the way, and bought a lot of saltpeter to cool down the heat.

Zhu Wentian used sleeping as an excuse to hide in his room and write. Now he doesn't know what the officials in the Ming Dynasty are busy with all day long, but he knows what he wants to do.

'Promote the method of sun-dried salt in Putian, Fujian, widely spread to coastal salt lakes and the method of correction' Zhu Wentian wrote a title, and then wrote the content.

At present, there are still many places in Ming Dynasty to boil salt, and there is also a method of boiling first and then drying in Fujian, which is not perfect.

The slow development in the middle and late Ming Dynasty led to the comprehensive popularization of direct sun-dried salt.

He took it out in advance, with a purpose, not specifically to increase salt production and reduce labor costs for salt households.

Salt households are currently subject to a fixed tax system, how much salt is handed over, and the extra salt is earned.

It seems that all you need to do is hand it in. In fact, the imperial court has already counted the amount of salt produced by each salt household.

Such as piece work, everyone does an average of 4000 pieces a day, and the boss uses [-] pieces as the standard, allowing a person to earn [-] to [-] yuan a month.

Someone is smart and develops a new method to do 4000 yuan a day, and the boss takes [-] yuan as a standard, allowing a person to earn [-] to [-] yuan a month.

Therefore, there is no difference between sun-dried salt or boiled salt for salt farmers. The only advantage is that there is less fire to smoke.

After writing this title book, Zhu Wentian thought about it and wrote another one, but he didn't plan to send it to the court immediately.

The head of the village is also not idle. He sits next to the children and writes down the things that the village has to do step by step, such as growing garlic. Don't forget.

There is also ginger planted in spring. When I return to the village, I will see how it is. It will be harvest time in half a month.

At the same time, soybeans are planted on wheat fields and topdressed.Which of the animals in the village is about to bring cubs, please remember the silage, the cattle and sheep will count on it in winter.

Hanhan wants to build a greenhouse, but he doesn't know what a greenhouse is. Anyway, he needs glass, so hurry up and blow it...

He has to take care of everything. He doesn't know what the officials are like. Anyway, he is very busy. If there is no Hanhan around, he feels that he can't hold on.

Zhu Wentian opened the door at this moment and shouted, "Meng, um!"

"Okay, okay, don't be afraid." The chief put away the paper and hurried into the room.

　The neighbor's decoration is too troublesome, and he is in a daze after every yard, and he is about to have a nervous breakdown.Vote, brothers and sisters!Thanks!In addition, the place where you can eat casually in Chapter 39 has been changed, thank you!
