Chapter 386 Increased chicken fat and re-discussion on tea (second update)
The sound of 'Boom~~' echoed on the stone mountain, and after a while, fifty people rushed over with tools.

Small stones are put into baskets and carried away, and large stones are chiseled into small pieces with hammers and chisels.

These stones were sent to the road and piled up temporarily, waiting to be delivered to Wang Ye's home together.

The person in charge of the blasting stood by and ate melon seeds, spitting out the skins from time to time. Today their mission is over, and they will be handed over later, just to get money.

They belonged to the skilled jobs inside and outside the palace. They helped others carry out blasting, and others paid for them. They practiced their hands and increased the income for the palace by the way.

Someone took the explosives, someone managed the detonator, someone recorded, and someone supervised.

Every time you take how much you take, you must remember clearly. When the time comes, the reconciliation between the two sides will not match, and someone must move their heads.

"Take a break, come here and wash your hands, and eat."

When the fifty people had moved the stones almost, the person who delivered the boxed lunch from the box restaurant arrived.

They carried water basins, soap, towels, and water from a clean river if there was one nearby, or well water in buckets if they didn't.

The hand towels you bring will be steamed in a pot with other hand towels at night.

It is not a business of Box Restaurant itself, but a social welfare of Huimin Pharmacy.

The soap is provided by Huimin Pharmacy, as are the towels and basins, and finally Huimin Pharmacy takes them for steaming.

People drink boiled water and wash their hands with soap, and the probability of eating unclean things in their stomachs is small.

If it is transmitted by mosquito bites, it will not work, and other means must be used.

Huimin Pharmaceutical Bureau pays these prices, and the consumption of medicinal materials is less.

That is to use additional aids to reduce drug consumption to help more people.

At present, it is a pilot project in Yingtianfu, and the number of sick people is counted every month.

If the number of sick people can be greatly reduced, it will be carried out in all places where Huimin Pharmacy is established.

The person in charge of the blasting, the fifty workers and the yamen servants washed their hands together.

Today is the third day, Box Restaurant provides three meals a day, five Wen per person, really did it.

The rice is harvested old rice, and the taste of old rice is not good. The advantage is that more water can be added, and more rice can be steamed.

New rice has a good taste and high water content, so less water should be added when steaming.

The morning meal is thick porridge and pickles, and the noon meal is oily and watery.

The stewed soup wholesaled by Box Restaurant will leave leftovers, scoop out some bone broth, and add leftovers to stir-fry for people.

Vegetables are vegetables that cannot be sold before the market closes at night, and will not be sold tomorrow.

The six people in charge of the blasting ate differently from others. They paid for it themselves and only had lunch at noon.

They eat ten pennies, with a lot of meat, and the rice is not old rice.

Fang Yamen eats the same meals as fifty people, so he doesn't spend money, and the restaurant gives him extra.

"Eh? Xiaolu, there's a lot of oil in today's dishes!"

When Fang Yamen saw the vegetables, he first smelled a strong aroma, like chicken, and then looked at the vegetables, and there was indeed a lot of oil.

"Chicken oil, now we are selling iron plate chicken racks, put the chicken racks on the iron plate, there is fire below, and the iron plate on the top is pressed.

After the chicken rack is pressed, the oil will flow out. This oil... can be eaten anyway, so it is used for cooking.

A sizzling chicken rack worth two cents can last for a long time, and some people like to buy it with wine. "

Known as Xiaolu, an apprentice at the Box Restaurant, he knows where the oil comes from.

The delicatessen shop in Xiaqiu Village has opened, and the bought chickens will be left with chicken racks, which will be made into iron chicken racks, which cost two yuan each.

At the same time, I am teaching people how to deal with the chicken butt. There is something inside that needs to be taken out, otherwise eating too much will be bad for your health.

Of course, most people don't eat too much, and few people can eat chicken every day.

Two pennies to buy other appetizers, you can buy a plate of boiled broad beans and a plate of dried tofu.

These two things are vegetarian, and two pennies for meat can't buy anything.

Now Xiaqiu Village provides a chicken rack that big, and there is still some meat on the chicken rack!

For those who don’t have a lot of money to drink, it is the best thing. Two people can drink a bowl of beer and eat a chicken rack, which is enough.

If there are several children in the family, buying one back will also make the children happy.

When the iron plate is so pressed, a by-product, chicken fat, appears.

Xiaqiu Village can't sell this oil, and it happens to be used as a dish for Hehe Restaurant, which is cheap and delicious.

"I'll take a look when I go back tonight, and buy one if it's good."

Others began to eat vegetables, and the vegetables with chicken oil really met their needs. They didn't feel greasy at all, and they didn't care about saturated fatty acids.

For the people of Ming Dynasty, it is good to have something to eat. Why is chicken fat lacking this nutrient or that thing, and it is worse than eating without oil and water?

……

"Hanhan, then sell the oil as something worthless?"

Upstairs in front of the box restaurant, the chief wanted to eat pancakes baked in chicken oil, but Hanhan stopped him and refused to let him eat.

Those who eat box lunch at noon today will each be given a pancake, which is baked with chicken fat from a sizzling chicken rack.

"Chicken fat is good for people who are short of oil and water, we don't lack it, so don't eat it.

Our perilla seed oil, sesame oil, and tea seed oil are the best.

I want to tell the prince that department stores buy tea seeds from all over the world. When the tea seeds from other places are ripe, they will pick them. We want them.

There is oil extracted from this in Fujian, but it is very bitter, so most people don't like to eat it, and they don't want to extract oil. "

Zhu Wentian said thinking that there are a lot of tea seeds. Due to technical problems, others picked them and pressed them for oil. That's unpalatable!no more.

In the village, the bitterness can be eliminated through filtration, high-temperature heating, and iron powder deoxidation, and it can be eaten with other oils.

If the method is taught to the people, the people will not be able to do it well, and problems will arise instead.

It is better to collect in large quantities, the common people can make money by selling the tea seeds, and the harvested oil can be processed and sold to the common people, and there will be more edible oil in the society.

"That's true, the tea tree will bear a lot of seeds later, and the seeds are much bigger than Su Zi, rapeseed, and hemp seeds.

There are few wild tea trees on the mountains to the north of us, and we harvest those every year. Now we have planted a bunch of them, and we can’t pick tea leaves, let alone seeds.

There are a lot of wild teas in Fujian. If you ask other places, you will collect the seeds if you find them.

Where else are there many tea trees?It is best to be able to pick it, and then transport it over for processing. "

The head of the village found that Hanhan's method is good, it can increase the fuel of the people, and the things that were supposed to be thrown away are worth a lot.

"There is one in Shaanxi. It used to be used to trade horses with people in the grasslands, that is, to trade horses with Beiyuan and some tribes.

In addition, Sichuan also has a tax of one-thirtieth of selling tea.

It is recorded that there are more than 680 million tea plants in Shaanxi and 230 million tea plants in Sichuan.

There are also quite a few other unowned tea trees, which are used for trade, so I know.

If necessary, open the oil extraction factory, press and process on the spot, and sell the oil to the local people. "

Zhu Wentian knew the situation in Shaanxi and Sichuan, and the information could be found. Like where he stayed, no one wrote the information, so there was nothing he could do.

Sichuan has the most tea, but it is not allowed to sell privately, and it is traded for horses, for horses...

Thinking of changing horses, Zhu Wentian realized something was wrong. There was something wrong with this horse changing now, a big problem.
