Chapter 36: Your Majesty, You're Here Too (Fourth Update)

The big wooden box was pushed by Li Yi and Li Chengqi to the river.

Yao Chong walked behind on the ground, really embarrassed to stand on it and be pushed.

The palace maid Taohong came over to hold an umbrella with Yao Chong, she could ignore others, but if the prime minister had typhoid fever, it wouldn't work.

"What other good things does Li Yi have?" Yao Chong took the opportunity to ask the palace maid.

Taohong shook her head: "Yao Xiang, don't ask, I won't tell you." ”

"Why?" Yao Chong felt hurt, how dare you, a palace maid, talk to me like this?

"General Gao doesn't allow it, and Yao Xiang also knows that His Majesty values Li Dongzhu." Peach secretly threatened Yao Chong.

Yao Chong felt that he had been hurt even more, how could anyone dare to scare himself when he came to Li Yi's Zhuangzi's side?

To the river, the rain was still so heavy.

The watermills by the river are leisurely, and the wheat harvested after is threshed on the thresher.

A dozen droplets of water splashed, and the rain mixed with the wheat grains.

The first time Yao Chong saw a water-powered thresher, he was indeed much faster than he was in the palace.

Someone next to him prepared a pole and a pole.

On both sides of the flat pole are earthen baskets, and some wheat grains are beaten out and immediately loaded into them, and people carry them to Li Yi Zhuangzi.

Under the pole is a large basket, which is loaded with one basket, and one person in the front and one person in the front and one carries it.

"Brother Yi, what should I do if I send things to Zhuangzi?" Li Chengqi was curious.

Yao Chong stood on the box again and listened, he didn't know what to do with the wheat that was wet in the rain.

Li Yi watched everyone work and introduced: "There are kilns in the village, and some kilns are specially used to stew charcoal. ”

"There is ash after simmering, and there are firewood stoves, and not all stoves burn charcoal."

"The charcoal ash will be kept on the village and used to make fertilizer...... Manure. ”

"There are also dried threshed straws to feed the livestock."

"The wheat grains were brought over, and the ashes were underneath and the wheat stalks were on top, and the grains were mixed with salt and then spread on top. This will keep you moldy for a few days. ”

Li Yi almost said that he made soap from plant ashes.

"What about the salt?" Li Chengqi asked what Yao Chong wanted to ask again.

"Sift it and go down." Li Yi replied.

"Is the salt still edible?" Li Chengji is concerned about this issue.

"You can eat what you want." Li Yi nodded.

In fact, he didn't plan to eat that salt at all, after the saponification reaction of plant ash and grease, the soap was soft and less foaming.

At this time, salt should be added, and then the effect will be different.

The glycerin is there, and there is still some salt left.

Otherwise, boiled with pancreas and plant ash, the soap that appears is soft, and after drying and dehydration, it will be harder, but there are not many bubbles when washed, and it is not fun.

Part of the salt is sifted out to make soap, and part of it is on the wheat stalks, and they are left alone, and the wheat stalks are fed to the cattle and horses, and the cattle and horses also eat salt.

"How much salt is appropriate?" Yao Chong cares about proportions.

Since salt was still edible, it occurred to him that more people needed to preserve wet wheat in this way.

"Two hundred wheat, three with salt." Li Yi opened his mouth to give a ratio, two hundred to three.

Yao Chong secretly wrote it down, so it was.

"I'm talking about wheat grains that have no water on their bodies, and if there is water, they need to empty the water first, and use other things to adsorb it, such as wheat straw without grains, plant ash."

Li Yi saw that the old man wanted to learn, but he was afraid that the other party would learn wrong, and the one with water would become salt water, pickling wheat?

Yao Chong nodded and wrote it down again.

I'm going to go around Sinong Temple one day, ask others, and give them some pointers, so that they can see my Yao Xiang's skills.

Li Chengqi obviously guessed Yao Chong's plan, so he gave a look of contempt.

When it's dark, the rain doesn't mean to stop at all.

After all the wheat was harvested, the back was drenched by the rain, the front was covered with tarpaulin, and the drainage ditch continued to be dug.

Someone in Zhuangzi went to deliver food to the old people left behind in Zhangjia Village, telling them that everyone was fine.

Others were taken to Zhuangzi for hot baths and meals.

Li Yi changed a hundred thermometers, the kind that was sandwiched under his armpit.

It took fifty hours of life, and I sent it down to tell everyone how to use it and take my temperature.

He did not feel sorry for the fifty hours of life, for today's work had added three hundred and twenty hours to him.

If anyone has a temperature of more than 38 degrees, they will be stuffed with a pill.

The medicine does not kill the cold virus, but only 'supports the treatment' and cools down.

In fact, drink ginger syrup to sweat, and then pay attention to rest.

However, Li Yi was afraid that someone would have a fever and pneumonia, and he would have to treat him, which was laborious.

People who have a fever and take medicine feel that their state is fully filled, and now they dare to rush out and swim twice in the Bashui in the rain.

People who don't have a fever are annoyed, why isn't it hot? I really want to take medicine.

After eating, the people of Zhangjia Village went back in the rain.

Li Yi invited the old man and his eldest brother to take a bath, and he had a small pool of his own.

The old man looked very embarrassed, Li Chengqi went in directly, and then stood up with a bang, it was too hot.

Li Yi had a bucket of cold water in one hand, and his hand went into the pool to touch it and mix it with cold water.

"Alright, let's just soak it." Li Yi said comfortably after entering.

"Brother Yi, your soup is good, it's better than soaking in a wooden barrel, the place is big." Li Chengji praised.

Yao Chong agreed in his heart, it was indeed very good, similar to the soup in the hot spring.

It's a pity that the hot spring soup was used by the royal family first, and it was rarely given to ministers.

When he saw the soap in the soap box next to him, he was not in a good mood.

Because he saw the farmer of Zhuangzi outside shouting for a bath, and one of them took the same box.

It shows that everyone has soap, and soap can be found everywhere in Zhuangzi.

Including places to wash hands and eat for the people who work, several.

If you think about it, the dealer has it, and the things are obviously not valuable.

After taking a bath, Li Yi asked Li Chengqi: "Eat now?" ”

"Li Dongzhu, I heard that there is a canteen in your Zhuangzi, why don't we go there to eat." Yao Chong proposed.

Li Yi looked at the old man and agreed to come down.

The three of them went to the cafeteria with umbrellas.

Li Yi was also carrying a steam pot.

Go to the place and find a corner spot, and the three of them sit down.

Place the boiler in the middle.

Li Yi beckoned the two of them to go to the dishes.

"Don't pack too much at once, it's a pity to have leftovers." Li Yi told the old man.

Yao Chong went to load the dishes, and his mood was bad again.

He saw a lot of soy sauce pots, and there was a small pot on a table in the Zhuangzi canteen with so expensive soy sauce outside.

There is also a jug with vinegar.

In other words, soy sauce is also eaten casually.

For a while, he had the idea of stealing a soy sauce pot.

Depressed, he sat back down, smelling the steamer chicken and feeling unfragrant.

He wanted to criticize Li Yi, such as lowering the price of soy sauce, and what kind of boiled round eggs.

"Uncle, uncle, I and Saburo are here, and they say you're in the cafeteria." The voice of the queen came at this moment.

Li Chengqi looked up.

Yao Chong turned his head, and when he saw the person, his hand trembled, and the chopsticks snapped to the ground.

Empress Wang and Li Longji came in and saw Li Chengqi and Yao Chong at the same time.

"Ah, the eldest brother is also here, who is this?" Queen Wang pointed at Yao Chong very unkindly and asked.

"Sister-in-law, my father-in-law is the one who came to see Zhuangzi today, and he can't go back in the heavy rain, so he wants to spend the night." Li Yi stood up and pulled a chair.

Li Longji looked at Yao Chong: "Hello uncle, let's eat together." ”

Yao Chong felt a strong murderous aura, the kind that was very fatal.

"This chair and table are good." For a long time, Yao Chong held back a sentence.
