Villager of Daming

Chapter 438 Going to a Banquet and Drinking Soup and Suffering (Fifth Change)
In the afternoon, the common people came one after another to send things to His Royal Highness, expressing their closeness and gratitude.

The officials helped spread the word, and the prince came here to make the people more profitable and safer, and sent people to clean up the wild animals and poisonous snakes on the mountain.

The people who traveled within half a day organized themselves and gave them what they thought was the best gift.

This time Zhu Xing's people are very good, Zhu Xing is not angry that others don't give him a gift.

He took people to see the gifts brought by the people, gave the value, asked the people to say their names and home addresses, and then pressed their fingerprints.

The people from the Prince's Mansion were too far behind the Prince Qin's Mansion in judging the price, and the people from the Prince Qin's Mansion followed the King Qin's to do business.

The common people don't know what it means, anyway, if they are asked to speak, they can speak, and if they are asked to press, they can press.

After delivering the things, they went back to the mountains to collect medicinal materials and waited for the prince to collect them.

Zhu Xi is responsible for arranging the gift in return, which must be more expensive than the things sent by the common people, and must be practical.

It is useless to give a big pearl. The people dare not sell it, so they have to give it up.

Zhu Xi made up his mind and was in a dilemma, so he ran here to find the head of the village who was drinking tea with Zhu Biao: "The head of the village, the people brought something to my brother, what should we return? The things we brought are given, we are afraid that we will not have enough. .”

"Give me soap and scented soap! Everyone likes to bathe with soap on festive days. Usually, soap washes your hands. Some clothes have oil stains, and soap can wash them off."

The chief doesn't think it's a problem to return the gift. Now he's hunting wild beasts.

"But we don't have anyone who can make soap and scented soap in our team... Uh... What should we do if we run out of alkali?"

Zhu Xi wanted to say that there were no soap-making artisans, but he suddenly realized that there were, not only that, but also very powerful.

"Let's go from here to the northwest. The place where alkali is produced is also Henan. Send someone to tell them to transport alkali and go north. We will meet up at that time."

How could the Lichang not remember where there is a natural large alkali mine?The village has always needed the alkali there to make things.

Zhu Biao expressed his opinion: "This will cause a lot of trouble. Up to now, the method of making soap has never been publicized."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, we will seal up the place and keep it from being known to others." The chief understood.

Being able to make soap guarantees being able to make scented soap. Soaps have been sold to barbarian people, and a batch of scented soaps will only be released occasionally in Daming.

If the barbarians learn it, Daming will immediately lose something good to export.

Therefore, when the team came out, they did not bring those craftsmen, including those who made colored glaze.

However, some artisans who made flintlock guns followed suit. If the guns were broken, they needed to be repaired.

After the chief finished speaking, he went to prepare immediately, and the oil from the beast was boiled out first.

Zhu Xi picked up the cup that was long inside, shook it, dipped his finger in tea to wash off the outer rim, and poured himself a cup of tea after pouring it out.

"I forgot just now. I always remember that Xiaqiu Village taught us knowledge, and they cook delicious food." Zhu Xi realized that he hadn't remembered well.

"The last time they made it and sold it for money, they stopped selling it after that. After a long time, it's really not easy to remember."

Zhu Biao comforted his younger brother, the soap in Xiaqiu Village had never been sold a few times.

Including rock sugar, which was given to the palace to earn money from the barbarians.

Of course!The technology is passed down from generation to generation, and Xiaqiu Village has various scented soaps.

"Brother, with them here, we will be safe along the way! They dispatched 44 people, but it gives us the feeling that it is better than thousands of troops."

Zhu Xi sighed with emotion, he found that Xiaqiu Village was following, so he was not worried.

He didn't know that the strongest team of 44 people dispatched from Xiaqiu Village had mastered a full set of skills, and the key was simple.

The guards of the Prince's Mansion were summoned by the head of the village and told them to be on guard, and no one was allowed to approach, and everyone began to deal with things.

They have to make a lot of soap and scented soap to return gifts to the people. According to the value of the people's gifts, the things they make are calculated at the cost price.

Otherwise, the sales price of a piece of soap will exceed what each household brings, and it is useless for the common people to get a piece of soap.

……

At night, the ten thousand soldiers who had gone out in the morning came back with a lot of prey.

They first ran to the river to take a bath, changed their clothes and returned to the team. Tomorrow they stayed behind and the other 1 people went out.

People who go out get their pointers, saving time.

The officials of Fengyang Mansion were summoned again, and Zhu Biao invited them to eat wolf meat pot.

But there are no wolf skins, and the wolf skins are too wasteful to eat, so I keep them for making clothes.

Everyone drank white wine soaked in medicine, Zhu Wentian ate the tofu and dried cabbage in the pot, and occasionally ate a bite of wolf meat, which tasted bad like dog meat.

Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, and the officials each have a small casserole.

Officials in Fengyang Mansion also ate wolf meat pot for the first time. They have eaten stewed and roasted wolf meat. There are wolves in the local area, so let's try it!
They have never encountered the way of eating like the one they are currently eating. They tasted wolf meat and found that it was not fishy at all.

"His Royal Highness, Prince Qin, the Guanglu Temple in the palace is really powerful." Qin Yu, the prefect of Fengyang, praised him sincerely.

"It's just to suppress the smell of meat with bean flavor, the beans must be cooked, otherwise the smell of bean flavor will be heavy again.

Soy mutton, black bean fish, soybean pig's knuckle, etc., all use bean flavor to suppress other fishy smells.

Fish soup can also be boiled with mutton, all things in the world, mutual growth and mutual restraint.

For example, in the land of Fengyang, where the mountain roads are difficult to travel, there are rivers passing by. If the land road is not possible, we will take the water road.

Since there are waterways, it is naturally suitable for raising ducks and geese. There are books on breeding before, which can teach the common people. "

It's not that Zhu Biao called the officials over because he couldn't find someone to drink with him. He wanted to tell the officials what to do.

Looking at the officials of Ningguo Mansion, from top to bottom, they all follow the model of Xiaqiu Village to promote it. If the situation in some places changes, they will change accordingly.

The other was the Taiping Mansion, which followed later and learned from the Ningguo Mansion.

Now that I am in Fengyang, I naturally have to lead the officials here to the right path. The old way is no longer good, and I must actively help the people.

"His Royal Highness is right. We will definitely find people who are willing to raise ducks and geese to breed more. This wolf meat is not fishy, ​​is it because of the tofu?"

Qin Yu expressed his understanding, and then talked about eating.

"The bean dregs left over from making tofu are cooked, packed in gauze and cooked with wolf broth, some tofu just put in, and the fishy smell cannot be suppressed.

Just as the people live their lives, in the long run, only a small part of the problems can be solved in a short time.

It can't be said that it is mentioned once, and you will take the initiative to help the people once, and you must always remember to guide the people at any time. "

Zhu Biao turned the topic back again and asked us tofu?Did we let you eat tofu with peace of mind?

I should really throw you to Ningguo Mansion to see how their officials do things.

As soon as you have free time, make sure to run to the village below to see the situation, and then rush back to the Yamen.

The officials realized that they had to work hard in the future, and they couldn't wait for the people to have troubles before taking care of them. They had to find out the situation in advance and see how to make the people make more money.

"His Royal Highness, in order to help the local people, even collected dried vegetables to make wolf meat pot. I learned it later." Tongzhi sipped his wine and praised.

"Fresh vegetables are not suitable for making wolf meat pot, only dried vegetables are best, especially dried cabbage.

To help the common people, we must start from reality, and we can find a small area as a pilot, and we can't throw them out all at once.

Whether the shoes are big or small, you know the best when you wear them. Come here and serve fresh vegetables to you. "

Zhu Biao continued to find excuses to beat the officials. Anyway, what the officials said, he could finally turn to what he wanted to say.

　I have it today, thank you!Vote!
