Villager of Daming

Chapter 907: This is the way to do everything

Because the distance is too far, the officials of Taiyuan Prefecture do not know much about Xiaqiu Village. Many things they do are based on official documents mentioned above about Xiaqiu Village.

For example, those responsible for planting seeds and medicinal materials, and those responsible for handling general ledgers in department stores will be mentioned in these.

More other information was passed on by the businessmen who came here. The businessmen talked in a messy way, as if Xiaqiu Village was omnipotent. It could go up to the sky, go down to the earth, fly into the clouds and ride on the mist...

Some businessmen said that Xiaqiu Village is very rich, with ten thousand guan a day, which is not enough to spend.

But some businessmen said that Xiaqiu Village had no money and all the money was given to the palace, which was very pitiful.

It doesn't look pitiful at all at the moment. The status of Xiaqiu Village is too high. The man at the roast duck rack changes his position back and forth, looking around with a silly smile on his face.

"I believe what His Highness said. Your Highness is..." Magistrate Guo wanted to know the person who served the roast duck rack.

When Zhu Wentian saw the other party looking at him, he immediately replied: "Xiaqiu Village, village guard, Hanhan, I, um! Hehehehehe..."

"Are you the village guard?" This time all six government officials understood. They heard from the businessman that there was a fool guarding the village in Xiaqiu Village, named Hanhan.

"Hey! I, Hanhan, the village guard, huh huh!" Zhu Wentian nodded vigorously.

"Okay, hello, village guard! That's great! Not... not surprising at all! Hmm! Hey hey hey hey..."

Magistrate Guo wanted to say that he was not stupid at all, but when he realized something was wrong, he quickly changed his words and started laughing awkwardly.

The other five, who are of a lower level than him, are cooperating. Hey, don't be silent.

"Your Highness, I still want to ask, can Xiangzi really reduce his capital? I won't tell others, but if others say the same thing, I will take my head."

Magistrate Guo wanted to figure out how to do it cheaply? It feels impossible! Swapping pork for duck? Or replace it with fish? Absolutely not.

Hmm... I'll try a bowl of duck sauteed noodles later. What should I do if there's no duck?

Zhu Fan waved his hand casually: "We are not afraid. If word spreads, people in many places will benefit. We are not selling it for money. The way to reduce costs is..."

He said, "Look at the inside story," meaning you tell me, I don't know.

Everyone: "..."

Everyone understands, the other three princes are still wondering! I don’t even know, but the locals will try their best to get cheap squid?

The chief didn't have any other expressions and nodded: "Do it now? Your Highness will send someone to buy pork bones. If there are more of us, we will buy more. Anyway, we will do it once and buy some lean meat. Lean meat is cheap. We have other things."

Soon someone went to the city to buy pork bones and lean meat. Normally, fat meat should be added to the sautee, otherwise it won’t be fragrant.

Everyone continued to eat duck and goose, and the people in the village took out the pressure cooker.

Then I went to get the bean dregs for making tofu, soaked the dried radish shreds, and prepared the other ingredients for making the bean dregs balls.

The starch is also brought here. There is a large pot and a large drawer next to it, and the ingredients for making saozi are properly placed.

About half an hour later, the shopping team returned. Various clean-shaven bones were cut into small pieces by the villagers, thrown into a pressure cooker, poured with water and a little vinegar, and cooked.

Cut out the lean meat you bought, add starch, rice wine, salt and peppercorns, and marinate it there.

Everyone continued to chat, mainly Zhu Fan giving lectures to the officials in his fiefdom. By the way, he asked what the officials had done. Is there anything wrong with it? But it needs to be investigated!

"Pile the silt from the dredging outside to dry? Yes, it freezes in winter.

Yes, you can't dig a pit and let the sludge ferment. If you fall in, you will die, especially children, who like to watch the fun.

Do you know why children want to watch adults work? It is for learning. Such children can work without any deliberate teaching. Where did the loaches and eels go during the dredging? There are a lot of eels here, not to mention loaches. "

Zhu Fan talked about dredging. The silt was used to fertilize the fields and make the rivers smoother, which was conducive to irrigation.

The six of them were secretly sighing at the fact that His Highness the King of Jin was so knowledgeable and knew everything. How could the masters of the main hall be so powerful?

Suddenly they were asked about the loaches and eels. They looked at each other, and finally Chai Shu gritted his teeth and responded.

"Your Highness, after eating, part of it was eaten by our government office and the county government, part of it was sold, and the money from the sale... was divided."

After saying that, Chai Shu bowed his head. The matter could not be hidden. Unless His Highness King Jin mentioned it without asking, would anyone else dare to lie? One of them tells the truth, and the one who lies is doomed!

"So poor? You all share the things among the people while they work. Build a ditch in a low-lying area, no more than ten miles away from the river.

We are planting lotuses there, and this year we dug up loaches and eels. Now we are asking the village to help us plant them, so hurry up and use our machinery to help.

Loach and eel are medicinal materials, and putting them in artificial ponds is good for lotus flowers. Even if there is a drought, we can still find a big pond, but it is just troublesome to dig a pond.

Sometimes we have lotus leaves, lotus seeds, and lotus roots to eat, and they are all medicines, so we can’t expect them to be delivered from other places.

Your income is low and it’s difficult to support your family. It doesn’t matter. Your salary is your salary, and there are extra rewards!

It just so happens that our Taiyuan Mansion needs the government to take the lead in doing something. Let us learn from Ningguo Mansion. The officials there are extremely rich, and my father acquiesces.

When they make money on their own, it is a demonstration area, where people go to watch and learn, and when they go back to do it, they guide them. "

Zhu Fan didn't care that officials took the opportunity to gain benefits. Monopterus eels could be cultured, and Xiaqiu Village raised so many of them.

The six people looked happy, why don't you pursue it? Tell me earlier! very scary.

"Your Highness, why do you know so many skills?"

The promotion officer Ma Haoyu asked while holding it. He was indeed curious.

"Skill? What's this skill? It's common sense. We spend the whole day with Xiaqiu Village. We just watch and ask what other people are doing. Once we know it, it's very simple. Over there, let's watch them do it!"

Zhu Fan waved his hand and found that the pressure cooker was on.

"Your Highness, please see, the pressure cooker can press out the oil from the bones. If the oil is on top, it will be better if you press it for a while. The soup below contains collagen.

The oil is pressed out. In fact, bone marrow oil is also good for medicinal purposes. We use it to fry meat. The meat is marinated with starch and rice wine and then swells as soon as it passes through the oil, and the small ones become larger.

Let's take these fried meatballs again. Put the fried meatballs aside. Cut them into small pieces when they are sold every day, and add them when the soybean for that day is hot.

In addition, in the soup, starch is added to make it into a stuffed soup. It won’t be frozen, but it will melt as soon as it is heated. It is not afraid of stuffing, and it can be deep-fried!

In this way, you save money on fat meat, increase the total amount of meatballs and stuffed meat, and it will be no problem once you get used to the texture.

In addition, when wheat is used to make starch, our current method will leave gluten in the end. Cut the gluten into small pieces and put it in the sauce, which is more delicious!

The bones that have been pressed in the pressure cooker have become crispy and can be ground into bone meal to feed livestock and poultry. We can set up a saute workshop to provide the saute, which is guaranteed to be tastier and cheaper than what they make themselves. "

The head of the village told local officials with practical actions how to extract oil from the bones, and the soup after extracting the oil can still be made into a stuffy soup.

Including that the meat is marinated first and then stir-fried, the volume is larger than that without marinating.

"How much can you save?" Magistrate Guo swallowed his saliva and asked with a trembling voice.

"With mass production, we can save two-thirds of the cost. After selling, we can buy it in the store, which is half the cost compared to making it ourselves." The director gave approximate figures.
