Villager of Daming

Chapter 446 Market Auxiliary Processing Money (Third Change)
Zhu Biao chose to stay, stay one more day, and go to Mengcheng County tomorrow.

He decided to help the people along the way as much as he could, and he couldn't come back during the Chinese New Year anyway.

Longkangji was originally a county, and it lasted until the Song Dynasty. After the war, the Yuan Dynasty ruled and the county was removed.

As long as Ming Dynasty continues to develop its navy and encourage inland waterway navigation, this place will definitely develop again.

The team stopped, and the vegetable sellers nearby were the first to be popular. The prince's team sent people and cars to pick vegetables in their field.

Weigh immediately after picking, and settle the money once picking.

Jiayuan watched helplessly, Zhu Yu went over and told them to send a car to their house to pull vegetables, and they hurriedly packed up their things and took them on the road.

Standing by the river, Zhu Biao looked at the opposite bank: "Wouldn't it be better to build a bridge?"

The chief who accompanied him took a look through the binoculars: "The height of the bridge opening should be high, so that it is convenient for ships to pass through."

Zhu Wentian watched from the other side, he knew what it was like to build bridges here, there were several of them.

However, the river channel is much narrower than it is now, and at the same time, the flow has become smaller, and the shipping has basically disappeared, leaving only economical ships.

At this time, people with good water quality go down to the river to touch mussels, and people with poor water quality in other small rivers go to touch them.

The people in the team are used to walking all the way to find food, especially the artisans.

At first, they thought that they would follow the team, that there would be roads and supplies, and that the speed would be very fast.

It turned out that the situation was not right. From the second day on, the team stopped and went, hunting game and fishing.

Now the nets are constantly fishing, and idle people touch river mussels, and river mussels bigger than a palm can be seen everywhere.

The children who came to get snacks also helped out one after another. Seeing His Highness the Crown Prince's team touch the mussels, the common people went home to fetch chickens and ducks, and wanted to give them to the Prince and the King of Qin to eat.

"His Royal Highness, mussels are not tasty. The bigger the mussels are, the harder they are to chew. They can't be chewed at all, like chewing branches, unless they are cooked with a lot of firewood."

Zhang Luming, the village chief here, came over with a rooster in his hand, and advised Zhu Biao not to eat mussels.

Zhu Biao recalled it, and said to Zhang Luming: "The mussels I eat are not difficult to chew, Zhu Lichang?"

"Going back to His Royal Highness, it's because the beating method taught by Xiaqiu Village to Guanglu Temple broke up the mussel meat.

Ordinary people don't know it, just throw it in a pot or jar and cook it, add a little salt, and use it as a food for hunger.

Or if it takes a long time to cook, the meat can be boiled until it is rotten, but it takes a lot of firewood, and the people are unwilling to eat it. "

The chief of the village knows the reason, but the method of operation is problematic.When he spoke, he was more respectful than usual, with outsiders around.

"Master Zhang, you can ask the people to watch the production method and try it at home." Zhu Biao nodded.

As for the poultry sent by the common people, they don't want them. They take them back to lay eggs or eat by themselves.

"Actually, you can make some utensils, put them in places where there are mussels, cook mussels for the common people, and charge a fee according to the weight of the mussel meat. Please come with me, Your Highness."

The head of the village decided to bring out another good thing. During this trip, Xiaqiu Village brought all the technologies that could be produced.

Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi followed curiously and came to their small camp in Xiaqiu Village.

Seeing that no one was stopping him, Zhang Luming followed him here.

The chief looked at the serial number of the car, chose car No. [-], and took out a pot with a lid from it.

"Your Highness, please look, this pot is called a pressure cooker, and a pressure test gauge is used for testing after manufacture.

Now there is only a simple pressure relief valve. When the pressure in the pot reaches a certain level, it will pop up and let out gas to prevent the pot from exploding.

Due to the need to make a steam engine, the pressure must be known, and it is easy to make a pressure cooker with the principle of the steam engine.

The village made a pressure gauge, tested it with water pressure, replaced the air pressure with the depth of the water, and obtained the data of the pressure gauge.

water vapor……"

The village chief gave a lot of talk, introducing the principle of pressure cooker, and the relationship between air pressure and water boiling.

Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi are trying their best to remember, they always deal with the children in Xiaqiu Village, they have learned some knowledge, and now they can keep up.

Zhang Luming, the chief next to him, could hear his head buzzing. He could guarantee that he knew every word that the other chief said, just putting them together...

"Li Chang, are many cooked foods in the deli made in this way?"

Zhu Xi remembered that the cooked food was delivered very quickly in the deli, especially pork heads and trotters.

The finished meat in the store is soft and rotten, and it takes a short time to eat.

Zhang Luming didn't make a sound, knowing that His Highness King Qin was not referring to him as the head of the village.

"Your Highness is right. That is a high-pressure barrel, and it can do a lot at one time." The chief nodded.

"Lichang, is it not affected by the weather outside?" Zhu Biao asked.

"Exactly!" The chief continued to nod.

"Since that's the case, if you use it in the northwest, you can cook the food well. I heard that the rice cooked there is not cooked, so it can only be fried or fried."

Zhu Biao thought of the function of the pressure cooker in front of him. Going to the northwest, the place there is high, according to the length of the mile, the air pressure is low, and the boiling temperature of the water is low.

Therefore, before the food is cooked, the water boils, and the temperature cannot be raised.

"That's right." The chief still nodded.

"Make a pot and see." Zhu Biao was going to see it with his own eyes, and at the same time prepared a pot beside him, and compared the two pots.

"How about stewed chicken?" Li Chang asked, looking at the rooster in Zhang Luming Li Chang's hand by the way.

"Yes!" Zhu Biao also looked over.

Zhang Luming offered the chicken, and the children quickly slaughtered it, drained the blood, stripped the feathers, and then cut the chicken in half.

However, the chicken head, which is the most difficult to boil, is placed in a pressure cooker, with aniseed, ginger slices, and scallions, and the two pots are placed on the stove at the same time.

"If the cooking time is much shorter, you can save firewood. Can you see the money and fees charged for firewood?"

Standing next to the two pots, Zhu Biao talked about what the head of the village had mentioned before.

Put the pressure cooker in the market, process river mussels for others, process one pot at a time, how much is the appropriate charge?
"Actually, it's good to use a big barrel, which is on the car, but it can't be reserved for the people, it's for our emergency use.

If it is feasible, it will be sent to the people later, and His Highness can write back to ask the village to provide technical and safety inspections.

The pressure test must pass, otherwise it is okay to say that there is an air leak, and it will cause injury and death if it explodes. "

The village chief made it clear first that the ones on the car cannot be given, and the reason why they are not used now is because they are not needed.

The stewed chicken is still fragrant when stewed slowly in a normal pot, especially for braised pork.

Zhu Xi came to the side of the pressure cooker, stretched out his finger and slowly moved towards the lid of the pot, and immediately retracted his hand after touching it.

"Hot, steel? How is this made?"

"Forging, molds and steel pillars are used. After being raised, it is lowered and forged. If it is cast, there are worries about trachoma."

"I can't figure it out. When the time comes, let them go to the village to learn, and teach them the low-tech ones. The valve on the top is the most important thing? No need to teach."

Zhu Xi couldn't watch the entire manufacturing process now, so he simply didn't think about it, or he would feel tired.

　The third day is even later today. I don’t know which dogs are downstairs. They keep barking, alas!
