Chapter 69 Uses of Tea Seed Oil
Li Guan received everyone's eyes, and the eyes on the scene made him unbearable, although there was appreciation among them, but more of them looked at fools, and Li Guan couldn't stand being looked at with the eyes of fools. I had to get out of here quickly.
Everyone didn't wait long, and saw Liu Er coming out with a bag of grain in his hand, and he was carrying more food than the people who came out before.
Everyone wants to know what Liu Er's situation is, "Liu Er, Liu Er, this way." ”
Liu Er saw that it was the neighbor's Uncle Erniu, usually their family looked down on Liu Er's family, after all, Liu Erdu was at this age, and he hadn't married yet, so it was needless to say how poor his family was.
If Liu Er hadn't seen so many people around, he wouldn't have wanted to deal with that Uncle Erniu, but everyone was here, if he walked away regardless of it, he would have completely offended people, in front of so many people, people took the initiative to greet you, and you didn't leave any face for others, this is not offending people, what is offending people.
"Uncle Erniu, are you too?"
Liu Er said lightly, even if he responded to Uncle Erniu and let him have a step down, he didn't want to be close to him or anything.
Uncle Er Niu didn't care about Liu Er's stinky face at all, and stepped forward and asked enthusiastically, "Second boy, have you got the silver?" ”
Liu Er didn't want to answer this question, and told people that he had silver, didn't he let others find a way to steal it! But it's not good not to answer, just say, "I joined the Volunteers, don't you see all the hair cut!" ”
Then he pushed away the crowd of onlookers and walked away with food.
Although Liu Er didn't say anything about the silver, everyone also woke up, before the volunteers said that if they joined them, they would have a settlement fee of three taels of silver, Liu Er said that he joined the volunteers, didn't he just have silver, and then looked at Liu Er who had one back left.
This is white silver, so many people gather here, few have seen silver, most of them usually use copper coins, but now Liu Er is holding silver, it makes people salivate when they think about it.
Uncle Er Niu regrets the most, I can't imagine that Liu Er's second stunned son became a volunteer, and there will be five taels of silver every month in the future, that year down, this silver is not in an uproar, that second stunned man has such an opportunity, and it is definitely not far from being promoted to make a fortune, if you want to find a way to get close to Liu Er's family, you can still help in the future!
Well, when I see that people have a chance to make a fortune, I want to lean on it to pull the relationship, why don't I see the poor things in the past come to pull the relationship! became a volunteer army, Liu Er didn't know that he was in Uncle Erniu's heart, and he had become a co-opted figure, and he couldn't blame other people's snobbery, Liu Er had no money and no power before, and Uncle Erniu could afford him.
Now that Liu Er has become a volunteer, Uncle Er Niu has found a way to have a good relationship, which is another matter, but fortunately, he has not offended Liu Er's family before, and the relationship can still be closer.
One after another, people who had their hair cut came out, and everyone who watched the excitement knew that those who had their hair cut had joined the volunteers, and they all looked at them with envy. It's a pity that they are not qualified.
So the people who participated in the registration came out, and the lively audience left one after another, so they couldn't just eat here, they didn't have this face, many people left, and the rest was a group of children, waiting outside Liu's mansion.
Li Hu took a look outside, and saw the little guy who was waiting.
Li Hu waved his hand and asked the dog to come over.
"My lord, what do you command?"
Li Hu: "You bring them in, and I'll let you have lunch later." ”
Liu's Mansion is now a lot empty, in the morning, Li Xi took all the things he took away back to Zhangjia Village, as for here, whatever, wait for the chief to come back, leave with the newly called volunteers, Liu's Mansion will become an empty place, although it has not been destroyed much, but it is less popular, it will be slowly deserted, it is best to have someone to live here, if the chief doesn't want these children, Li Hu will let them live here, brick and stone houses, better than other places!
The dog entered the Liu Mansion with other children, and he was a little scared in his heart, he passed by the Liu Mansion before and was scolded by the subordinates, so for a long time, the dog no longer dared to pass by here.
The decoration of Liu's Mansion is very luxurious, and it is not much more advanced than the dilapidated temple where they live.
After the volunteers followed Zijian, they had the habit of eating lunch, which can be described as a luxury.
Soon these children had their first true lunch.
……
Zijian had lunch and slept under the tree for an hour, and the sun was still very hot.
Zijian: "I hate this kind of sunshine. ”
"Niu Sheng, tell everyone to start moving things!"
Just bask in the sun, drink more water, and then rush back to Zhangjia Village, you can't stay here for too long, as for why Zijian wants to sleep, uh, personal habits, this can't be changed, if you don't sleep for a while at noon, in the afternoon, Zijian is particularly prone to sleepiness.
The valuables were escorted by the volunteers and pulled on ox carts, and more than a dozen cattle were found in Hutou Village, which were just right for pulling carts. This time, the silver was pulled by ox carts, and the rest of the cloth was brought back by the people who came to carry things, after all, it cost a tael of silver to invite them over, not to eat dry food.
What made Ling Zijian speechless was that the pile of garbage that Li Qiang kept before, those people heard that it was for them, and then they rushed forward to snatch it, otherwise there were volunteers watching, maybe they would fight for those things! Zijian was speechless when he saw it, are those rags worth it.
Zijian hurried back, he didn't notice when he came before, and when he was free, Zijian saw that there were a lot of good things on the mountain next to him.
Zijian stopped and pointed to the fruit on the tree next to him, "Niu Sheng, go pick a few of those things." ”
Niu Sheng put down the spear and ran to pick up what he needed for the chief, Zijian, of course, with his hands behind his back, his chin looked up at the sky at forty-five degrees, this is the chief's style.
"Chief, here you go, what's the use of this thing?"
Niu Sheng asked curiously, these fruits can't be eaten, why are you here!
Zijian asked, "You don't know this?" "Peel off the camellia fruit that already has a few cracks, and remove the seeds inside, this is the raw material of tea seed oil, what is it used for, of course it is eaten, Zijian wondered how Niu Sheng didn't understand this common sense.
Niu Sheng shook his head, "Chief, this thing has been tried before, but it doesn't taste good, and no one eats it." ”
Zijian is embarrassed, of course this camellia seed can't be eaten like this, this is used to extract oil, and it would be hellish if you eat camellia seeds like this.
Zijian: "This is used to extract oil, and you haven't eaten it." ”
Zijian remembered that camellia seeds appeared very early in Chinese history, why didn't Niu Sheng know it!
What Zijian doesn't know is that tea seed oil has a history of more than 2,000 years in later generations, and it has always been a tribute designated by the royal family, and it is unique to the upper class, ordinary people don't count on it, poor people like Niu Sheng have never seen tea seed oil, the secret recipe of tea seed oil has been kept in the hands of a few people, people have this kind of heirloom secret protection, of course, how strict the protection is, outsiders don't know the manufacturing process of tea seed oil, let alone know that these seeds can be squeezed for oil.
Zijian didn't bother to think about why Niu Sheng didn't understand, and explained, "This kind of tea seed oil seeds can be squeezed for oil, and it is very delicious, if you can eat this oil before, you won't be like a ghost." ”
The extraction technology of tea seed oil is not a matter at all in later generations, and Zijian, who knows the production process or something, also knows it, because when he was young, he followed adults to pick thousands of camellia seeds, and then got them back to squeeze oil, and this wild tea seed oil is still very expensive. Zijian has seen the oil extraction process of tea seed oil, the main steps, first crushing, then steaming, and then making a large cake, the crushed tea seed oil that has been steamed in the shape of multiple cakes is backlogged, and if it is constantly squeezed, there will be an overflow of oil.
This is tea seed oil, Zijian is worried about the lack of oil, just what is the little lard that hunted wild boar before, Zijian needs a lot of oil.
Zijian: "Are there many camellia seeds around here?" ”
Niu Sheng replied, "Chief, there are a lot of these things, because no one knows what this thing can do, so no one has paid attention to it and let it grow." ”
Well, Zijian doesn't know why camellia seeds are not taken seriously, but he saw it, it was his luck, the taste of camellia seed oil can be said to be a must, it can help Zijian solve his urgent needs, and Zijian will have a greater demand for oil in the future, and I will talk about it later.
Zijian was quite speechless to the people at this time, listening to Niu Sheng, there are a lot of tea seeds here, but the people don't know how to use them, and they won't use the good resources, resulting in the lack of oil and fat among the people, and they are generally thin.
Zijian doesn't know, people who know tea seed oil, of course, protect this secret recipe well, who will talk nonsense everywhere! Ordinary people don't understand that tea seeds can be squeezed for oil, since they don't know the benefits, what can be done.
