Villager of Daming

Chapter 700: The puffer fish eats fresh maggots and pupae.

"Li Chang, the sewage treatment plants in Huangcheng and Xiaqiu Village have not seen any benefits."

Zhu Biao looked at the construction site and thought of the village and the imperial city. The imperial city was connected by pipes across the moat.

Those things are just piling up. Where are the economic benefits that were promised?
"Prince, it has been used this year, but you didn't pay attention to it and used it in the Yingtian Mansion greenhouse.

The longer the fermentation period, the better. The soil needs to be cultivated and cultivated. It takes hundreds or even thousands of years for black soil to ferment and mature naturally.

That is what everyone always calls mountain soil. The one in the Northeast is the best. The Jurchens would not use it, otherwise they would be able to make money just by growing grain and selling it.

This soil!On the one hand, the situation is like this..."

The director started to popularize science, explaining the composition of the soil and the needs of plants.

While talking, he gave examples from actual situations, including the previous operations of Xiaqiu Village and what the soil under his feet is like now.

It is part of biology and can also be said to be part of agriculture.

……

"Your Highness, there is no food to eat when you go back now, unless you go to the village, where they can supply it. Shall we eat here?"

After going around in a circle, the director finished speaking, and the sky turned dark.

"Eat here!" Zhu Biao looked at the sky and knew that the Prince's Mansion had already received food from Xiaqiu Village, and he would have to go through more trouble when he returned.

So everyone walked out, and the eating area was outside. Xiaqiu Village still kept this place and kept others away with high prices.

But there is another place in Xiaqiu Village that is close to the people, the price is not high, and it is fried on the spot.

When Zhu Biao and others came over, other people understood that another royal figure had arrived. I heard before that they were the prince and four princes.

"Chief, let's drink and eat skewers!" Zhu Biao took a seat, ordered food, and ate barbecue skewers.

"A little more fried stuffed rice." Zhu Ming followed up. He loves fried fried stuffed rice, and fried stuffed rice is the best sold in delicatessens.

"Chicken rack, sizzling chicken rack." Zhu Fan continued. This is a classic item from Xiaqiu Village Deli. It's cheap and delicious.

Zhu Di also said: "The eggs I want to bake must be big yellow ones."

What he wants is for half of it to turn into a chicken, and one side is yellow, which means it is dead. The yellow side is very hard.

The chief looked at the last prince who was qualified to ask what to eat, Zhu Ji, "What do you want?"

"Actually, I think both are fine, but you have to ask me? Is there any skin jelly made with meat skin? I want to eat it with garlic sauce."

Zhu Tong actually didn't want to make any requests. He could eat whatever he wanted. Others had already mentioned it, so he would also say it.

Everything everyone wanted was available. Hanhan went to fry a big iron pot of clams and have a drink!Adding onions makes it taste sweet.

"Can clams be eaten for a month? Where we passed last year, whitebait was only available in March and April. Now, which one is better, fresh fish or seafood?"

Zhu Biao saw that the clam meat was still very fat, and he recalled the situation when the Northern Patrol passed through Chuzhou and asked the local people to catch whitebait and sell it, which was very expensive.

"There are always fish and shrimps in the river. In the current season, the bream in Hubei is edible and relatively fat.

His Highness wanted to eat it, so he sent a steam engine boat to use the net from Xiaqiu Village to fish it out of the lake there, and it was still alive when he came back.

Another fish from the Yangtze River estuary, also called sea carp, is also very delicious now.

The crabs can still be eaten for a few days. In addition, the halibut, like the bream, is steamed and has tender meat and few spines. "

During the meal, the manager was willing to talk about food. There was never a shortage of fish in the Yangtze River, but sometimes I was thin and sometimes I was fat.

"It seems that the three delicacies of the Yangtze River are not available for the time being. We know that in winter, we eat oysters. The puffer fish is said to be delicious, but we have never eaten it. Can Xiaqiu Village do it in early spring next year?
The combination of mugwort and reed sprouts is said to be detoxifying. It is said that the person who cooks it eats it first, otherwise others will not eat it. "

When Zhu Biao talked about food, he wanted to try pufferfish, but he didn’t dare to do what others did, so he looked to Xiaqiu Village.

The village chief waved his hand: "Your Highness, please don't be joking. The village raises puffer fish and you can eat them in the year after tomorrow. That is the safest one. If Your Highness insists on eating wild ones, the children need to prepare them for His Highness and test them step by step. It is also safe to eat raw ones." Can."

"River puffer fish sashimi? Can the village make it?" Zhu Di became interested and wanted to eat it too.

He always heard people say that they risked their lives to eat puffer fish. He wanted to eat it, but no one dared to cook it for him. Anyone who promised to eat it would die. He didn't have to finish the meal and just killed him.

"Next year, when the pufferfish comes back from swimming, the village will do it." The village leader glanced at Hanhan and saw that Hanhan didn't make any extra moves, so he agreed.

Zhu Wentian knew that he had to start preparations, making an immune enzyme for tetrodotoxin, and then using this to detect whether there was tetrodotoxin on the puffer fish meat.

He needs to find pufferfish in the breeding farm that are still poisonous, that is, the first generation, and use this to reduce the use of the animals to obtain immune enzymes.

He didn't have the equipment for other methods, so if he had to choose one, he could only let the small bamboo rats raised in the village eat first. There were no white rats.

Bamboo rats eat meat, such as bamboo maggots.

Bamboo maggots... Oops!Catch it quickly!After a while, they will turn into pupae. This is so delicious, why did you forget it?And bean bugs.

While others were chatting about eating pufferfish, Zhu Wentian considered eating maggots.

There is not much to do in the current season. The people who are farming are idle, so they can go to the bamboo forest to look for bamboo maggots. They are easy to find. Look at the bamboos. Some are withered and yellow, and some have changed leaves...

After dinner was over, everyone went home together. The Xihua Gate was sealed, but the Donghua Gate was open.

There are military camps on both sides of the open Donghua Gate, and then the Chaoyang Gate is also open. Xiaqiu Village is a barrier, and there are sergeants guarding the outside of Xiaqiu Village.

Zhu Biao entered through the Donghua Gate. He lived closest, and the other four people had to walk around again.

Zhu Wentian thought about it. He hadn't been to the mountain temple here for a long time, so he decided to stay there tonight. There were no people living there and the house was uncomfortable.

The director followed, and he wanted to ask how to eat wild puffer fish to ensure there would be no problems.

Entering the mountain temple, Zhu Wentian first turned on the electric lamp and then lit the oil lamp.

The chief brought rice wine and boiled fennel beans and put them on the table. He touched the tabletop and found that there was no dust. Some villagers were cleaning it and helping Hanhan dry his bedding.

Zhu smelled the three pillars of incense in the sky, muttered a few words, and then turned around and sat down after the ceremony was over.

"Hanhan, do we really dare to do this?" The leader spoke first.

"Dare, we are all experimenters, be careful, and then test it. When the front is ready, please eat it twice and you will know."

"Isn't it okay to invite someone else? Life in prison is hard and there is not much meat to eat. If you look for those who have committed serious crimes and are waiting to be executed, invite them to eat." The prison chief refused.

"Sure! Why don't we just let them test the medicine? If they don't try, they will be beheaded. If they try, they can stay alive until..." Zhu Wentian stopped.

"We think they will agree. It's better to die than to live. If you're lucky, you might live another ten to eight years and you'll be considered a profit." The head of the village expressed his support.

"There are still bamboo maggots, which are chubby and crunchy when fried. Take them! Give the people a chance to make money, and we will also have more dishes.

Now that the tussah silkworm pupae are available, let the boat collect them and bring them back with the cocoons, and we can reel them in at the same time.

These things are cheap, but you are still poor!There are so many rich people waiting, and it costs a lot of money to have a meal. "

When Zhu Wentian talked about bamboo maggots, he thought of tussah silkworms, which are most abundant in Northeast China and then Liaoning.
