Chapter 152: Playing with incense

Therefore, the current Su You is playing with Su Shi who came back from vacation.

As for Su Zhe, he was caught by Mrs. Cheng and looked at the account book.

Before, Su Shi pulled Su You to make a special incense for his beloved Qingshen little sister cub.

Meizhou has been quite rich in incense medicine recently, and even the poorest Su family in Jiangqing is no longer bad for incense.

However, the little sister cub of the Qingshen is also an elegant person, and what she likes is the atmosphere of the mountains and forests, so Shen, Tan, Brain, and Musk, these superb spices that the Su family has recently collected, all stand aside.

The incense produced by the four spices is called the four harmony incense.

But in addition to the expensive big four, there are also small fours and poor fours.

Xiao Sihe's ingredients are very ordinary, orange peel, lychee shell, pear dripper, sugar cane dripper.

Poor four and cheaper, lychee shells, sugarcane rubble, dried cypress leaves, coptis, or directly add pine cones, jujube pits instead.

The first time I knew this recipe, Su You almost laughed, it turned out that I, Su Mingrun, have always been an elegant person - in the mountain Kelongli, every family is clear to the bone. Twenty-three years ago, it's all in smoked meat!

As soon as this poem came out, Su Xun, who was carefully tasting the fried green before the Ming Dynasty, sprayed tea all over the place.

Su Shi rubbed his hands excitedly: "Hurry up and light it and try it, and see what effect you said the inverted incense is!" ”

The current incense is all incense sticks and cakes.

Incense sticks are straight, some are coiled in a circle, and they are lit directly, and the smoke of the furnace is rising, rising and changing.

The cake fragrance is to break a little small piece, put it on the delicate silver leaf, first put a piece of carbon in the small furnace, and then put the silver leaf on it, cover it with incense ash and smoke it, mainly to produce the fragrance of flowers, pay attention to a fragrant and smokeless, generally very precious top grade.

Flowing incense backwards, but no one in Da Song has played it yet.

The formula of the incense powder will not be so, but he knows the method. He can also provide dipterocarp wood powder, as well as tea oil.

The rest of the ingredients are what Su Shi has long been made in the jar and buried in the bottom for several months, all of which are powdered, mixed with honey, and then pressed into the shape of small pine cones with molds.

Insert a hole in the center, carefully remove the mold, and after three days, the incense ball is dry and ready.

Su You took a small ball of incense, lit the incense from the top, and then placed it on the top of a natural stone.

There are many strange holes and ravines in the strange stone, about five inches high, like a natural peak-like incense burner lid, which is usually placed on the incense burner, which is a natural Boshan furnace, and the smoke of the furnace will rise through the holes and ravines, and the changes are magical, which is one of Su Shi's favorite collections.

Su You loves intangible cultural heritage, and the dry lotus can be made into gadgets.

Su Shi is also somewhat similar, his playthings are also not precious, when he was a child, he dug out an inkstone-shaped stone from the yard, and he also regarded it as a treasure and enjoyed it to this day.

Dead wood and strange stones can also be seen by him in beauty. The breadth of aesthetic taste, the pursuit of beauty and elegance of natural creations, can be regarded as engraved into the bones.

This time, the gameplay is really different.

The incense balls contain more oil, and the cigarettes produced are white and rich, which are sucked down into the strange stones by small holes, and then escape from the holes of the mountain peaks, and gradually flow into a sea of clouds in the valley.

Flowing incense, not going up, but going down.

In a few square inches, it will create a beautiful scenery of clouds unintentionally coming out of Xiu in a short time.

The whole family unconsciously gathered around to watch, and felt so amazing.

Su Zhe praised: "Beautiful, as if overlooking the top of the mountain in the high sky, the green peaks and white clouds, which makes people feel fluttering." ”

Mrs. Cheng stretched out her hand and fanned it gently, the sea of clouds rolled and flowed, and the small scenery suddenly became more agile.

At this time, even Su Xun applauded.

Only Su Shi was still a little dissatisfied: "It turns out that this method is only used to see, not for tasting at all - the aroma is there, but it is not elegant and turbid." ”

Su You was angry: "I worked hard for you for several days in vain." I didn't even say a word of thanks! Things are not worth much in the first place, and they are just a novelty to play. Wang Changlingshi doesn't remember? Take that artistic conception, depending on whether you can express it! ”

Su Shi was immediately overjoyed: "'Knowing Jun Yuan, I don't know the sea of clouds. 'Hahaha, wonderful, with this poem, the matter will be explained! ”

After speaking, he bowed to Su You: "Thank you Uncle Xiao for your success!" ”

Su You rolled his eyes: "It's late!" I'm going to get a new music box for Vere, so you can continue playing by yourself. ”

Su Xun looked at the back of Su You entering the study, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Madam, which family is the adult, are you very happy to see the child working hard?" It's good for you, because Mingrun studied the scriptures and called us all back, I think he's doing well now......"

Mrs. Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm afraid that his temperament will change drastically, so something must have happened in the Xue Palace." Now it seems that I am blamed for worrying too much. ”

In a blink of an eye, he pointed the finger at Su Shi: "Zizhan, are you reading or playing in Qingshen?" If you abandon your studies, be careful that your teacher takes back your life......"

Su Shi walked to the backyard with the strange stone, and muttered straight in his mouth: "Mingrun, you encourage him to cultivate his temperament, and I will force him to study, everyone is surnamed Su, why is the difference so big......"

But the children in the dragon can basically get rid of heavy labor now.

The reason is that Ah Homi got a few big magnets.

Magnet is magnetite, with it, the iron sand concentrate can be adsorbed out of the iron sand layer after rough separation, which greatly reduces the workload of sand panning, and the output is greatly increased, and it can produce twenty or thirty catties a day.

The number of people needed by the iron sand group has been greatly reduced, but they are not without places to go, and the food in a few places is enough for them to toss.

However, it is not as hard as panning for iron sand.

The number of people in the pottery coal group has also decreased a lot, and the metal processing level of Shijia Iron Workshop has been greatly improved in the past year, the iron castings have become more and more sophisticated, and small machinery has been used in the production of honeycomb briquettes.

It's a bit like a bottomless syringe, slamming a few times against a pile of soot that has been blended with clay, and the piston fader lifts the shell up, and a perfect honeycomb coal sits firmly on the ground.

However, it is impossible for the children to meet the needs of the entire Meishan, this thing is mainly used for boiling salt in the mausoleum, and the factory building over there is called a big one.

The weather became hot and unbearable, and the discovery of the magnetite head made the Shi family and Su You unable to sit still.

asked the old man and Teacher Tang for leave, and Su You's reason was that he had prickly heat and was going to go out to escape the heat.

I heard that the climate of the Erlin Department was suitable, and General Huaiyuan was enthusiastic, so he must invite Su You to live in his shogunate for a while.

During this period of time, the old man Long was very satisfied with the progress of Su You's knowledge, and inquired about the time when Su You was away, there would be children from the Land Temple to take care of his daily life, and the old man Long waved his hand, and he was ready!

Shi Tong's obedient apprentice must accompany him, this time in addition to exploring various minerals, but also to help the Second Forest Department improve the level of smelting.

Now that four salt wells have been opened, the amount of credit money issued can be greatly increased, and the ability to absorb commodities has also increased.

As an important commodity in the southwest, the bronze ware of the second forest department, as well as the iron ware in the future, under the premise that each workshop began to expand its scale, as the enemy of exchange, the output must keep up to ensure the balance of supply and demand.

Ah Homi has not been to Meishan for a long time, after the trade route from Erlin Department to Meizhou was opened, she transferred to Jiazhou for development in the past six months, and once arrived in Kuizhou, where she took over three big ships, and then ...... There is no then.

The Song people were too treacherous, Ah Homi scolded when he saw Su You, and several businessmen in Shuzhou made her miserable, and the big ship couldn't get up when it arrived in Luzhou, because the river was rising.

Three big ships, a thousand Xianjing salt banknotes, just like that, fell into Luzhou and became, uh, fixed assets. We had to wait until September when the water receded before we could move again.

Of course, Su You knew that the water was rising, and the vegetables planted in the spring on the river beach under the land temple also encountered this situation, and Shi Da took the farmers to harvest cowpeas, eggplants, cucumbers, dogwoods, and winter melons overnight...... But I'm tired enough.

These things, except for winter melons, have all turned into kimchi and hot sauce, and next to the sauce jar in the woods, there are dozens of huge kimchi jars.
