Chapter 741 Returning from a bumper harvest and eager to learn skills
Before dinner, Wu Erduo saw [-] dumplings, put them on a curtain made of sorghum stalks and took them outside to freeze. They quickly froze hard.

"I'll give you two hundred. If the fish thing you mentioned is true, I will give you a reward."

Liu Wenli and Wu Erduo said that to encourage others, for example, which tribe is going to rebel, you should send a letter in advance...

He is the son of the Minister of the Ministry of War. He has been educated since childhood and can handle various things with ease.

Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid of this. The children of officials were better than others. When the time came, he would be ignored by the officials, so he held the imperial examination. What the hell would he test?

He had no choice but to stop the imperial examination and continue to let local officials recommend talents to become officials.

Fortunately, this game was broken by Xiaqiu Village. Xiaqiu Village played EFA and would be able to find someone after a while.

"Yes! It really does!" Wuerduo promised, patting her chest, looking at the two hundred dumplings, thinking about how happy everyone was when they were in the village.

The four frozen badgers were brought over and needed to be sent away with other things. The badger skins were second best, but the oil was more powerful.

Xiaqiu Village gave a prescription for burn ointment. When the skin needs to be repaired, badger seed oil is better than all natural things, and snake oil is not as good.

The number of badgers in state capitals such as Yingtianfu, Taipingfu, and Ningguofu is rare.

Badgers are hibernating during the current season, and experienced people can find their hibernating places and dig them out.

For Liu Wenli, the cost of vegetables in greenhouses is not high and the greenhouses can be reused.

For the Jurchens, the cost of prey is not high, and winter is the easiest season to catch.

Both parties feel they got an advantage and are satisfied with the transaction.

The troops who went out to hunt wild animals with snowmobiles came back before dark at night. A sledge was pulled behind the snowmobile, and the prey was piled on it.

There are brown bears, black bears, roe deer, pheasants, foxes, deer, muntjacs, musk deer...

Whether it was a male musk deer or a female musk deer, they were all captured alive. Some bears were also captured alive. All four cubs and adult bears were killed. It was too difficult to capture them alive.

The surviving ones need to be transported to Nanjing alive and raised in Xiaqiu Village. Musk deer is easier to handle. The male musk deer has musk, so take it out. If you are a bear, you need to breed it, so don't be busy taking bear bile alive.

The parts that can be used for medicine will be kept at the local Huimin Pharmacy, and the rest will be sent to Nanjing. Nanjing will not need the skins, as there is no shortage of skins there.

The skin of the weasel is needed, and the hair of the wolf brush is from the weasel's tail.

The beards of bamboo rats are also a good material for making brushes. They used to be rare, but now they are artificially bred and sold to rich people.

Roe deer meat is a favorite among locals and can be used to make hot pot.

"Your fire...guns are so good!" Wu Erduo looked at it with envy. It was no problem for the snowmobile to go over the mountains and ridges, unless it turned into a ditch because it didn't know the route.

"How can we protect the people of Ming Dynasty? We cannot let Bei Yuan fight back." Liu Wenli mentioned the previous dynasty.

Wuerduo's face changed: "Yes, you have to resist. Beiyuan does not allow us to hunt and mine. The winter is so cold. We are not allowed to drink wine to keep warm. Killing is prohibited. They are afraid that we will unite to fight against them." .”

Wu Erduo is obviously not stupid and understands everything. Bei Yuan forbids war between their tribes, and they will be unified once they fight.

"Do you want to fight? Ming Dynasty does not prohibit it." Liu Wenli asked.

"No, this is good. In the past, several people in my village would freeze to death every year in winter, some directly freezing to death, and some suffering from frostbite.

Without that much food, they could only go out hunting, and suddenly there would be a heavy snowfall and they would not be able to come back.

The hunter was blocked by heavy snow, and someone starved to death on his way home, just one day away! "Wulduo said his eyes were red, and he didn't want anything to happen to the people in the village.

"Tell us what you still need. Even if you don't have anything to exchange for it, you owe it first." Liu Wenli shoulders the political task and is gentle.

"There is none this year. The things you have exchanged are enough. You have medicine so that the village is not afraid of getting sick. We also have noodles, frozen tofu, and dried tofu, so you can eat without being hungry.

The village has iron pots, pottery jars, and coal. Why don't you give us cotton-padded clothes, quilts, and things to wipe our faces and hands with?

We used to rub the meat skin on our faces and hands to avoid the cold. After rubbing it, we felt uncomfortable. We held it tight..."

Wu Erduo talked about the happy things. Due to the mutual trade, the village worked hard to collect things and exchange them. They stored a large amount of grain and salt, and exchanged them for iron pots and coal.

Someone was also ready to grab it, but later...

Everyone should get along well with each other, and it’s wrong to rob each other!They didn't even rob us with guns!How can we rob others?That gun...

To sum up, all the things for the winter can be stored through exchange in late autumn, even if you don't go hunting in winter.

When I am bored, I go out hunting to exchange for some things, such as medicine and fresh vegetables, including dumplings.

Especially the frozen tofu has to be exchanged. My own village is not as big as others. The larger ones can grind beans, cook soy milk and order tofu by themselves.

"Liu Chaoguan, my village wants to learn how to make tofu." Wuerduo asked a question that he thought Chaogang had.

Other Dazhaizi can make tofu and keep it secret, so they won’t teach you!If you want tofu, get something in exchange.

"Uh... let's... make it! You can ask someone to learn it! Find someone to grind it for you later."

Liu Wenli wanted to say that our grinding of soy milk is powered by a steam engine, so you can't learn it. If you think about it again, you can find other ways to teach us.

Why don't you order tofu when you don't have a steamer?There is a small grinding machine with a shelf on top that can be pushed and pulled by one person.

As long as millstones and racks are provided to each village, they will be able to make tofu themselves in the future, and Ming Dynasty does not need to make this money.

Beans are particularly hungry, even more so than rice and steamed buns. After squeezing out the soybean oil, knock off a small piece of the soybean cake, two or three taels, and you won't feel hungry all day long.

"What can I exchange for it?" Wuerduo has always known that nothing is given for free, and this has been the case since childhood.

"Grinding costs money, and we don't know how to do it. We don't have good craftsmen. We'll see how much it costs when the time comes. If you don't want to change it, you can find someone to grind it yourself. It's a very small mill, not a big millstone pulled by an animal."

Liu Wenli made it clear that it doesn't cost anything to learn. If you want to buy grinding, you can buy it. If you don't want to make it yourself.

"What about this lamp?" Wu Erduo also wanted something. There is an electric lamp here, so I will put the good stuff here for people to see.

"There are candles, but the lamp on the head is not good." Liu Wenli expressed regret that he can't give it to you, because there are no other borders in the Ming Dynasty.

Let you see, there are vegetable greenhouses, new guns, snowmobiles, heating boilers, electric lights, and other electrical and mechanical equipment.

The land is vast and sparsely populated. If you are willing to join the Ming Dynasty, live here, and accept management, you can enjoy all these conveniences.

For example, making tofu does not require manual grinding. Is it uncomfortable to make tofu when the weather is so cold?There's no problem here, it's warm, and the beans are ground just fine, so we can get more tofu and less bean dregs.

The bean dregs were used to fry the meatballs with radish, carrots and flour. They were delicious, but a little oily.

 The farmer corrected an error in the previous chapter. Previously, he wrote the twelfth lunar month, and then he checked the calendar and found that there was a leap month and a leap month in the sixth year of Hongwu, so the previous one was changed.Some people may be wondering, what is the difference between a leap month and a non-leap month?This is not visible in ordinary times. Winter is a leap year in November, which means that today’s winter is very cold and lasts for a long time.For example, in the northern region, during the leap month of November or December of the lunar calendar, the ice period will be extended by at least 20 days.
