Prosperity through farming

Chapter 105

He went straight to the kitchen, besides eating some snacks, he also wanted to see what the ingredients were—didn't Xiaohan say that he should look at the ingredients before thinking about the recipe? !He has to prepare a list of ingredients in advance, so that Xiaohan can think about the recipe later.

No way, he's hungry!
There are three storage bags on the back of the kitchen door, two are added with time stagnation array, used to store cooked food and raw ingredients respectively, and the other is used to store utensils, from tables and chairs to bowls, plates, chopsticks and spoons - this is a small bag. The standard equipment of every household in Tiancun is the most common "denial owner" storage bag that everyone can open.

Jingzhe searched in the cooked food bag, there was still the pancakes I made yesterday, and they were still hot when I took them out, I swallowed two of them, and then I started to look at another storage bag containing fresh ingredients, probably in my heart After counting, I started to search the cooked food bag again, found some refreshments for entertaining guests, found a plate, packed it, and took it out.

"Come on, try it, this is the fried egg cake with minced meat that Xiaohan came up with a few days ago." Jing Zhe put a large plate in the middle of the round table, flew out a spear gun and cut the round egg cake into eight pieces, "Eat some If you change your mind, you might come up with something.”

Seeing the snack brought out by the second brother, Xiaohan seemed to have a flash of light in his mind, but he couldn't catch it.

Mo Xin, on the other hand, unceremoniously picked up a corner of the pancake and took a bite, "It's so fragrant and fresh, how do you make this? It's so delicious?"

The big thistle even wiped out two pieces in a row before stopping to talk, "Well, I'm a little hungry, I woke up too early, and I seem to have used up everything I ate in the morning."

"Brother made this," Jing Zhe stuck out his tongue, "I only know it's delicious."

"This method is very simple. As long as the heat is well controlled, it is not difficult at all. Beat the vegetarian eggs with salt and monosodium glutamate, add the minced meat and clean diced eel, and then pour them into the pot. The heat is very troublesome, it has to be warm, and it must be controlled so that every inch and every inch of the pot is evenly heated, and the heat cannot be changed during the period, and at the same time, the egg liquid in the pot must be stirred constantly , until most of the egg liquid condenses, then you can stop stirring, and continue to warm the oven with a low fire until there is no moisture on the surface of the egg cake, then you can pour it out. Eh? Didn’t you pay attention, this The appearance of the omelet when it is whole is that the pot was turned upside down. In our family, Jingzhe has always been responsible for cutting it, and only he can cut the omelette with the same angle." Zhang Hanlu said with a gentle smile, As the host, of course he will greet the guests well.

Mo Xin blinked, and then took another careful look at the omelette, "No wonder," said "Hey" again, "Jing Zhe said you made it, and you are already able to make it so hot? So, You can start refining powder medicine at your level! My brother has long wanted to refine it, but his spiritual power is insufficient. Although the fire is well controlled, it can't last." Turning to Daji again, "Brother, why don't you go back Also use this dish to practice fire control?!"

Lu Zesen saw them talking enthusiastically, smiled and grabbed a corner of the omelette, and began to bite, "It's very fragrant and fresh, why doesn't Xiaohan eat it?"

Jing Zhe snorted, "She has a tricky mouth, it's obviously delicious, but she still lacks a taste of what is called cheese, the taste is not enough, I just tasted a slice when I first made it, and then I stopped eating."

"Cheese? I know that." Sun Daji raised his eyebrows. "My fifth aunt once said that she once ate that thing when she traveled to the northern prairie. It will turn into a milky white or milky yellow cake, which is called cheese."

"Huh? I thought Xiao Han just said it casually. So there really is such a thing?" Jing Zhe swallowed the last bit of cake and licked his fingers, "If we can get some, we can know the standard egg that Xiao Han said. What does the cake taste like?"

"Get some when we go traveling later." Sun Daji patted his friend on the shoulder and said with a smile, obviously looking forward to it.

"Don't be so troublesome," Han Lu smiled and shook her head, "Since I'm sure this kind of thing really exists and I know its origin, I can go to Zhu's shop to place an order, and they will naturally run errands to find a way to bring it back. of."

Sun Moxin was happy when he heard that, "It's just when will that cheese be put into the dish? And how?" He looked at Han Lu inquiringly, seeing that Han Lu didn't know, she patted Xiao Han on the back, "Xiao Han?"

During their conversation, Xiaohan kept staring at the omelette, thinking hard, when Moxin slapped her, she also slapped the table in a conditioned reaction, and the loud "pop" scared everyone Jump, "I figured it out!"

No wonder, looking at the omelet, she felt that there was something that should be useful and related to the egg, but she didn't grasp that idea anyway, and when Mo Xin slapped her, she suddenly saw her sister sitting in the chair in her previous life. At the table in the open-air cafe, besides coffee, there is cake in front of you.

Cakes and quiches are made of eggs, the only difference is that the cake needs to use an egg beater!
If you don't stop stirring, no matter how thick the liquid is, it won't settle, right?And if a small eggbeater shape is set in the pen barrel, and an eternal rotation effect is added to it, it should be able to solve the problem they thought of before?

Excited, Xiao Han didn't care about answering Mo Xin's question, so he pulled Lu Zesen over and showed him the eggbeater, with the idea of ​​constantly turning it.

Sun Daji and Zhang Hanlu who came over from the side were also excited, "Now, we can really solve the problem of always sticking talismans when drawing talismans!"

Lu Zesen also nodded with a smile, and pondered, "If you can keep the talisman material from settling all the time, you can try to make the extra-fine nib that Xiaohan just said, but the nib and the barrel have to be made into two parts. It must be made easy to clean, otherwise, if it is not used for a period of time, if the talisman material left in the nib condenses, it will also block the flow of the talisman material. Yes, I have to test it. The pen tube seems to be able to be finalized. But the thickness of the nib, how to interface with the pen barrel, and how the talisman flow to the nib is the most convenient for the user's spiritual power to penetrate into the talisman, all have to be tested to determine... Well, I'll get this mixer first Come out and test it out to see if there will be any mistakes in the talisman materials after stirring for a long time, after all, the talisman materials we draw now don’t need to be stirred all the time.”

"Plus Naxumi Yujiazi's formation in the pen tube," Sun Daji said very enthusiastically, "then there will be more talisman materials that can be stored. If you can draw a formation without using talisman materials, you can The best, in fact, the coherent array is the best for our practice."

"Besides," Zhang Hanlu also thought of something, "if the nib and barrel have to be removed for cleaning after use, do we still need to put a stopper on the mouth of the pen barrel, just like the one on the blood storage bottle used for drawing talismans?" The lid is the same? This way the runes can be preserved and will not flow out due to the tilting of the storage bag."

Lu Zesen nodded again and again, flipped his hand, and took out the four treasures of the study, and rubbed out the ink to write down the whole idea, the problem to be solved, and the experiments that they thought of and needed to do.

Xiaohan let out a breath, and finally got it done, she reached out and picked up a piece of omelet, took a bite, "Well, if you add cheese, it will be smoother and more fragrant."

Mo Xin patted her and asked again, "If you add cheese, when will it be added?"

Only then did Xiaohan have the time to answer her question, "When the egg liquid in the pot is half-coagulated, you can add the finely shredded cheese while stirring. As for how much to add, it depends on everyone's taste, but there are some One thing needs to be paid special attention to, absolutely no sheep cheese, only cow cheese.”

Mo Xin nodded and remembered, then picked up another omelet, "It's already delicious, but what would it taste like if cheese was added? Is there any difference from now?"

"Don't you think it's a little dry?" Xiaohan took another bite and chewed carefully, "Although I asked my elder brother to cook it earlier, it's still relatively dry."

"But shouldn't the taste of the cake be dry? And the minced meat or diced eel meat inside is already moist enough." Mo Xin was a little puzzled, "If you want something moist, you can eat Xiaolongbao, use condensed fruit The soup made of glue and fresh mushroom juice is very delicious.”

Tsk, poor child, he is so picky about the taste of food, is this a long-term sequelae of eating in a big canteen?But in comparison, she looks like a poor, fastidious woman with a naughty mouth.

"Uh, in short, I think that if you can do better, you should do better, no matter what it is." After making a plausible philosophical sentence to support it, Xiaohan probed to see if Lu Zesen was done.

Although there is an attempt to block the topic of Moxin, more importantly, compared with the fine-tip pen that has little influence on her at present, she is more concerned about whether the camera can be obtained, which is to find a second for Ruiqi. A sharp weapon at the position of the spiritual eye——a sharp weapon that "if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his weapon".

However, seeing Lu Zesen's rice paper was full of settings of the talisman pen, Xiaohan couldn't help it again, "Why do you only think of putting talisman materials in the pen tube? If ink is put in the pen tube, no Can you not have to grind the ink every time you write? Especially for those who study alchemy and refining tools, who may have a good idea and need to write it down quickly, carry such a pen filled with ink with them, and then Bring a booklet of rice paper, with a hard thin board in the middle, so you can memorize things at any time? It’s really stupid and incomprehensible!”

Yes, Lu Zesen looked at the experimental plan that was carefully written stroke by stroke in front of him, and he suddenly realized, "Oh, that's right, if you have a pen like that, you can write at any time. There is no need to toss about ink sticks and inkstones every time, really," he patted his forehead lightly, "I never thought of that. My uncle also carries a wooden piece with him, and he can engrave it with the tip of the utensil when he has any ideas." On the wooden board, this is basically the case in our village, and I never thought of it..." While talking, he did not stop the pen in his hand, and continued to finish the last page.

"Okay?" Xiaohan finally waited until he finished writing, and was about to speak.

Zhang Hanlu gave her a hand, "It's getting late, let's make lunch first."

"..." Xiaohan was depressed, and quickly talked about the recipes of a few dishes in the kitchen. When all the new friends ran into the kitchen because they were curious about the fresh dishes, Xiaohan insisted on holding Lu Zesen and not letting him leave , "I have another idea."

"What?" Lu Zesen was not interested in cooking, except that Jingzhe was dragged by Han Lu to process the ingredients, Mo Xin was interested in the dishes, and Da Ji was more interested in Han Lu's control over the heat.

"The statues I saw in Chongzhen today, according to my brother, were all printed using formations and spells?" Xiaohan wrinkled his nose, "Do you know how to do this? Is it very complicated? Otherwise Why only the ancestors of Feisheng can print pictures, and ordinary people don’t print them? It seems that I have never seen grandparents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. If they also leave portraits with seals, even if they haven’t seen them, at least Can you recognize it when you see it?"

"Huh? This statement is quite true. I also have a few uncles who went out to find materials for refining tools. I haven't seen them before." Lu Zesen nodded, feeling very reasonable. If they don’t know each other, it’s more likely that we, the previous generation, have never met before.”

"Really?" Seeing that he agreed, Xiaohan continued, "I have an idea, but first you have to tell me what is going on with the formation and spells."

It was Lu Zesen's turn to frown, "You don't have a foundation in this area, or do you really want me to explain professional things to you in detail?"

"No, no, no," Xiaohan shook his head, "You just need to tell how the portrait was printed, and the steps of making the portrait will be fine. I'm not interested in the principles of formations and techniques."

"Well, this, as you have heard, set up a formation in a certain room, and the person who wants to make an impression stands in the formation, and erects a portrait in front of him, of course this The silk is also specially made, and there is a corresponding formation inside, and then the person standing in the formation casts a spell, and then the figure in the formation will be printed on the silk of the portrait." Lu Zesen thought about it , "This was thought up by an ancestor of our ancestors who loved his wife so much in order to please his wife. Lujiazhuang didn't pay much attention to this thing, because after all we are practitioners, and we want to keep some portraits and the like. You can make and burn jade slips when you enter the golden elixir stage. You said that you have never met your relatives such as your grandpa and aunt, but I bet, after you enter the golden elixir stage in the village school, your parents will immediately send the jade slips. I showed you the jade slips that left their impressions. After my uncle was promoted to Jindan, my father gave him a jade slip that recorded the images and names of all his relatives. It is said that when the village school graduates, there will be A jade slip written by the ancestors, which includes the image and name expertise of all the people in Xiaotian Village, including our Lujiazhuang, is said to be a must-have for traveling, at least if you see it outside, you can go up and say hello."

"Can you remember it when you see it?" Xiaohan was a little disapproving, how could he remember it.

"My elder brother said that after reaching the Golden Core stage, not only will the senses be super sensitive, but the mind will also become smarter. The most basic thing is to have a visual memory and a deaf ear." Lu Zesen looked at her with the eyes of a "stupid" , I looked down on her lack of common sense, "So in the private school, the master will not teach us too complicated things. After all, as long as we enter the Jindan stage, it will take five years to learn the knowledge. It can be learned in five months or even five days."

No wonder, Xiaohan really didn't know this, she thought that in the private school's study hall there were only those common sense and interesting jade slip books and no more professional knowledge carrier, because each family was taught by the elders. To teach the juniors what they are good at, just like dad taught the eldest brother how to fight, taught the second brother how to fight, Sun Moxin's family is also grandpa and dad to guide their brothers and sisters how to fight...

It turns out that the problem is here, no wonder, the formation jade slips that her elder brother gave her are all very simple and basic standard formations!
As for the eldest brother, it is probably because he really likes it, and he will soon be able to enter the village school, so Dad will give him a more complicated intermediate formation, right?
Well, she understands, starting tomorrow, she will work hard to understand the basic formation, and will not rush to move around the runes on the formation to try it out.

"Okay, now you know, Jindan Qi can carve jade slips." Lu Zesen narrowed his eyes, "The formation for making portraits is really not very useful."

Of course, Xiao Han has used the jade slips before. Looking at the introductions to the characteristics of plants in those jade slips, there are so many pictures attached. Of course, she knows what it is like to look at pictures in the jade slips, just like It’s the same as looking directly with the optic nerve in the brain, without going through the eyes at all. In other words, those elders who came back from traveling to explore the mainland will engrave the situation of those continents into jade slips, right?There is absolutely no need to get another camera like this.

Xiaohan was discouraged, and lost the desire to continue, "I didn't think for a moment that images could be recorded in the jade slips. If that's the case, then don't worry about it."

"Don't tell me, let's talk about it," Lu Zesen was excited, "Your whimsical ideas can always stimulate my inspiration, let's talk about it, anyway, they have all gone to the kitchen, don't talk about us. Nothing to do."

"Okay, let's talk about it," Xiaohan took a sip of vegetable juice, "I was thinking, can I engrave that formation into a device that can be carried with me, and in the future, the printing will not be limited to human portraits. Now, if I can print the scenery of the places I have been to as large images and hang them on the wall at home, it will definitely be beautiful."
