Chapter 104 Buying a Mountain

First, the eel is tasted according to the standard code of two spoons of cooking wine and one spoonful of white wine.

Bean cress, soaked ginger minced in a small pot.

Cut the green bamboo shoots into a pot of hob pieces.

Peel the garlic in a small pot.

Cut the green onions into small pots.

When the seasoning is ready, heat the pan with soybean oil, then fry the eel until it is dry.

After that, add watercress, soaked ginger and garlic. Saute until fragrant and pour in the stock. After the heat is boiled, add the mash, light soy sauce, icing, vinegar, and then add the green bamboo shoots to boil over medium heat.

Wait until the water is dry, the soup is thick, and the green bamboo shoots are soft and ripe, pour in the green onions, and stop the heat after the green onions are ripe.

The babies have already cooked a lot of delicious food, but the taste of this roasted eel with garlic and green bamboo shoots still far exceeded their expectations, and they kept swallowing saliva while making food according to Su You's command.

Shi Fu was hooked when he was soaking ginger and watercress in the pot, and he never left the side of the pot, snorting vigorously: "Fragrant, really fragrant......"

Su You picked up a piece of eel fillet: "Come, Shi Lao, often salty." ”

Shi Fu ate it, and shouted as he ran towards the ancestral hall: "Hachiko, quickly take out the good wine!" Today's food, I'm sorry for this dish if I don't have a bottle of good wine......"

Su You took a large bowl and put two bowls, and asked the mice to send one bowl each to the third and fifth sisters-in-law.

The dogwood shell is treated with baking soda made of plant ash, the effect is much better than using lime powder, after the bitterness is exhausted, what is obtained is spicy, and then it is used to mix the bean paste, and the flavor has come out until now, and the babies are angry while shaving the rice.

Hachiko ate a piece and felt that his pores were a lot smoother, and when he took a sip of wine, his eyes narrowed: "It's really delicious!" Heng Zhi came to take one, this thing is delicious! ”

Shi Fu touched a glass with him: "The taste of eel is so fragrant, it turns out that I didn't know how to do it before, but when I meet an expert, it will become gold." ”

Su You smiled: "If you cook cucumbers in the summer, it will be the best delicacy, now...... It's a little bit short. ”

The third brother and the fifth brother nodded straightly: "It's okay, it's already amazing!" There are a lot of eel fields in the field, there is a small amount of oil, and Hachiko is stunned to eat meat! ”

Hachiko frowned and said, "You haven't seen so much oil? This thing is delicious, it's delicious, but it takes too much oil and condiments......"

Su You smiled: "Where can it be wasted?" After eating meat tonight, I will use this soup tomorrow to make a cut, and the taste is also a must! ”

Everyone talked and laughed for a while, and Su You asked, "Third brother, how much land can you buy for twenty yuan?" ”

The third brother said: "Twenty yuan, good land can be purchased about seventeen or eighteen acres, but there is a problem, I have the owner of the surrounding fields in Longli, and it is really difficult to buy it for a while." ”

Su You said: "Aren't there many barren mountains around us? ”

The third brother said with a smile: "Xiaoyou is a layman's word, there are barren mountains, but the shetian method can only grow wheat and beans, and the yield is not high, so there is no need to toss." ”

She field method, that is, slash-and-burn farming, in autumn a fire will burn a piece of the mountain, ploughing and dotting wheat beans, can also have some harvest. It is now a popular method of mountain reclamation.

Su You shook his head and said: "That's not cost-effective, but we have a water source in the mountains, if we build layers of soil ridges, lead the water over, and open up patches of paddy fields, just like the stone stairs coming up from the water's edge, can we also grow rice?" ”

After saying that, he ran into the house and got a pen and paper, and drew a pattern: "You see, it looks like this, the slower the slope, the larger the area of flat fields that can be enclosed by a low embankment, and the circle around the swamp has the possibility of turning into good fields." ”

Bagong clapped: "Tomorrow, I will go to the mountains with Xiaoyou to have a look, if things can really be done, twenty yuan can buy a lot of fields, and the government will have to give me a commendation in Kelongli!" ”

In these years, the land was extremely heavy, and the reclamation of wasteland was a first-class political achievement in the locality, second only to quelling the rebellion.

The matter was decided, after eating, Su You led Shi Wei to pound the lichen, sorted the lichen into categories, added water and pounded it into a paste, filtered out the juice and soaked it in paper, and then hung it to dry.

While tinkering and chatting, Su You asked Shi Wei: "Wei'er, are the chickens and ducklings okay?" ”

Shi Wei said while holding the paper with a clamp and hanging it on the rope that was pulled out: "It's good, it's very lively, it's just that it's big and thin." ”

Su You said with a smile: "That's not thin, it's seedlings, and then you can move them out of the greenhouse at noon every day to let them get used to it for a while, and then they can be free-range." ”

"When you see good seedlings in the process of raising, you pick them out and raise them finely, so that they can be screened from generation to generation, and finally you can get big fat chickens and big fat ducks."

Shi Wei nodded and said, "It's the same as when you see that the third brother's vegetables are good, and ask the third sister-in-law to keep the seeds?" ”

Su You said: "Well, that's pretty much the truth, but this matter is also very complicated to talk about, so let's do it roughly like that first." ”

After the thing was done, he played two more games of checkers with Shi Wei, and the two rested.

Now there are too many things to play at home, chess, Go, checkers, Huarong Dao, Luban lock, intelligence lock......

The children's favorite games are Go, backgammon and Monopoly, as well as Sanskrit numerals.

Long card Su oil also invented three kinds, with water glass and stone paper, the thick cardboard of Chengjia paper mill is very authentic, so the long card has become two other popular gambling equipment after mahjong.

One is the leaf card with a dot, one is the twenty or seventy that was popular in the Leshan area in later generations, and the other is the big two that is popular in the south of Sichuan with two lakes.

Cheng Wenying is so happy, I said you would do this, the Great Song Dynasty people are good bet on you, it's not that you don't know, the upper market makes the mahjong of the porcelain rooster win, this middle and lower level of the vacancy, my Chengjia paper mill just fills it, this thing is too easy to build, and the profit is not worse than books......

I didn't say anything all night, and the next day Su You didn't eat eel noodles, so he was dragged up the mountain by Hachiko.

Su You gnawed on the cooking cake with a resentful face: "I still want to eat eel noodles, I am still a child, I need to grow my body......"

Hachiko took out a boiled egg from his bag: "Add this, okay?" ”

Su You pouted: "I only eat scrambled ...... eggs"

Then the egg went into Hachiko's mouth, whether he likes to eat it or not, Hachiko will not get used to his problems.

Su You: "......"

The two of them scolded each other all the way to the swamp, and Hachiko was stupid when he saw it: "What...... How did it come to this? ”

Su You said: "Ah, if there is less water attracted, the swamp will reced......

Bagong was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, and slapped Su You's head again: "You didn't say such a big thing earlier!" You know how to catch eels every day! ”

Su You also jumped to his feet: "You beat people again!" You ate a lot of eel yesterday! You're too embarrassed to hit me! ”

Hachiko gave him two more blows: "You still dare to slam your mouth?!" At least thirty acres of good land will be withdrawn here! You didn't even report it?! ”

Su You reacted at this time, after the water receded, he just thought about the products under the water, after all, the land was far less important in his heart than that of Hachiko.

Hachiko looked at the fertile land, and his heart was full of beauty: "It's not just Xuetian, there are all the clan fields!" You make a watermill workshop, stop for a few days......"

Su You said: "Well, the new lathe is estimated to be coming, and it will definitely be debugged for a few days, but what does the workshop have to do with this buying land?" ”

Hachiko scolded: "Are you stupid?!" Hurry up and put the water back, flood this area again, and then report to the government, I can open up the wasteland of the Su family in Longli! ”

"When the sales documents for this piece of mountain land are in hand, and the people from the government have checked them, we will change the water back, hehehehe......"

You're all old and fine! In a blink of an eye, there are dozens of acres of high-grade fertile fields, etc., and a layer can be enclosed on the side, and then the mud in the pond is dug up and filled......

One old and one young circled around the swamp, and they were all happy and stupid.

Su You's relationship in Meishan is strong now, and the county heard that the Su family was going to open up the wasteland, but before he could use the relationship of the Jiang Qing family, the county Cheng, the tax supervisor, and Li Zheng immediately rushed over.

The county has spoken, the affairs of the Su family are special affairs, and increasing the cultivable area of the Great Song Dynasty is the obligation of every conscientious official in the Great Song Dynasty, but the Su family in Longli can take the initiative to take the responsibility of building the Great Song Dynasty, this spirit is worth encouraging, and the county is 100% supportive!

There is only one, tens of millions, that must be completed within this year!
