Chapter 270: Blue Girl, Shouldn't That Be a Lost Fragrance?
Chapter 270
Two days later, Huang Zhifu really fulfilled his promise, and Lin Wanghu's family cried with joy, not only all the fixed assets were returned to their hands, but also nearly half of the confiscated property was returned.
This relieved Lin Wanghu's family, who had already become penniless and could only live in a relative's house with a large family. The gratitude to He Jinghui and his son is like the water of the Yellow River, which is endless.
Another big problem is that after the flood washed away the Xuzhen embankment, it began to gradually recede, and the places in the south of the Yangtze River no longer rained as frequently as before, and the rainy season that made Longjiang Mansion and even the entire Jiangnan people tremble finally passed.
The flood water on the low-lying ground outside the Xuzhen Dam has gradually receded, but there is still water nearly a foot deep, and I am afraid that it will take several more days to wait for the water to recede.
A large number of stones, timbers, and local bamboos have been transported to the open space next to the Xuzhen embankment, just waiting for a few more days of exposure to the scorching sun, so that the Xuzhen embankment, which has been soaked in floodwater, can be dried, and then start construction.
After everything was on the right track, He Jinghui did not continue to show up in the county office, and continued to go to Nianxiang Pavilion every day to see how the business was going, and then conceive a new perfume ratio.
Of course, Lan Meng'er would personally deliver food to He Jinghui almost every day at noon, saying that she wanted to listen to He Jinghui's guidance on her cooking skills, but after the two met, they listened more to He Jingxuan's nonsense.
"Is there really such a condiment?" Lan Meng'er blinked her big eyes and looked at He Jinghui, who was holding chopsticks and gesturing in front of her. "Actually provoked so many countries to start a war for that little condiment."
"This is nature, don't you know that the people live on food?" He Jinghui is very serious and flickering, uh, it should be a narration. "If the people don't have enough to eat, they are likely to riot or even rebel."
"And when the whole country tastes an extreme delicacy, only to find that this delicacy is actually in the hands of others, stealing gold, what do you think they will do?"
"Earn money to buy it, is that why they go to war?" Lan Meng'er said with a look of disbelief.
"Of course, it was for this condiment that made food and soups more delicious, and eventually those countries organized powerful armies and eventually succeeded in occupying the production areas of that delicious condiment, and began to promote and grow that condiment on a large scale." He Jinghui couldn't help but say with some emotion.
I don't know if there is Europa in this time and space I am in, but everything I eat and wear seems to be no different from the earth I used to be on.
Lan Meng, who was listening with great interest, asked curiously. "Brother He, what kind of condiment is this, it has such a deadly charm that people don't hesitate to start a war for it."
"The name of this condiment is pepper." He Jinghui said the name of this condiment seriously.
"Pepper? Do you mean the kind of spices that are white and then left on the side of the soup to make the soup taste a little spicy? Lan Meng'er blinked her big bright eyes and said something that shocked He Jingxuan.
"Have you ever eaten Miss Blue?" He Jinghui couldn't help but be stunned, and his eyes widened.
"Yes, I've eaten it, and there are such condiments in the Windy City, but I've heard that those merchants further south have trafficked it." Lan Meng'er nodded, very affirmative.
Seeing that He Jinghui was still suspicious, Lan Meng'er simply stood up. "Wait a minute, I'll bring it to you and see if I've lied to you."
Lan Meng spread her little feet and ran, and after a lot of effort, she ran back panting with a wooden box about half a foot square, although Lan Meng's girl is still young, but well, it seems that she has begun to develop, hmm...... At this moment, He Jinghui hurriedly looked away.
Think about it, the minimum is three years, the maximum death penalty, besides, although the little girl is quite smart, but the small body has not yet grown, it is impossible for me to be interested in the little Lori.
Lan Meng, whose face was flushed, put the wooden box on the desk, then raised his hand to open it, and then pointed to the small white particles in one of the grids and asked He Jingxuan. "Look at this, don't you?"
He Jinghui lowered his head and found that Lan Meng's wooden box was like a cornucopia, and it was divided into two layers, each layer was divided into nine grids, and each grid contained a spice.
The grid that Miss Blue Dream pointed to was filled with peppercorns. And after the box was opened, there was a strong smell of spices, which made He Jinghui feel refreshed. "I said Blue Girl, what kind of spices do you have here......"
"There are star anise, fennel, peppercorns, ginger, pepper, mint, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, cumin, dogwood, benzoin fennel, ......" Lan Meng proudly showed off, pointing to a spice, and said the name of it, and He Jingxuan's eyes followed the spice pointed by the finger of the blue dream girl.
And when his eyes fell on the benzoin fennel, He Jinghui couldn't help but slap his thigh. "Stop!" The sudden scream almost didn't make Miss Blue Dream jump to her feet.
He Jinghui hurriedly smiled and asked Lan Meng to sit down. "I'm sorry, I'm so excited, I didn't expect that there are also string artifacts in this world, I'm so happy."
"Road channeling artifact? Brother He, what are you talking about, I don't understand. Lan Meng looked at He Jingxuan, who was so excited that he could hardly extricate himself, picked up a few benzoin fennel in his hand, and intoxicated He Jinghui took a deep breath there.
"It's not a road channeling artifact, well, in fact, this kind of benzoin fennel also has a scientific name cumin celery, which belongs to the order Umbellifera, an annual or biennial herb of the Apiaceae family, twenty to forty centimeters high, and the whole plant is smooth and hairless except for the fruit. Petals pink or white, oblong, flowering in April, fruiting in May......"
"Cumin has a certain effect of inhibiting lipid peroxidation, has a preservative effect on food, can be used for food preservation, and because it has a special fragrance, it is the main spice condiment for barbecue meat food.
Its flavor ingredient cuminaldehyde, that is, p-isopropylbenzaldehyde, is an edible spice, and also has health care functions such as calming the nerves, relieving pain, promoting qi, appetizing, and antiseptic, and is an important ethnic medicine in Xinjiang. The drug has the effects of driving away wind and cold, warming the stomach and strengthening the spleen, diluting water and chasing water, dispersing edema, etc., and can treat stomach cold hiccups, loss of appetite, diarrhea and bloating, stomach distension and pain, gonorrhea, unfavorable urination, hemocoagulation, amenorrhea, swelling, hernia and other diseases......"
Young Master He looked at the rest between his fingers with affectionate eyes, oh no, it was cumin, and then naturally recited a lot of relevant information about cumin.
After all, these materials are absolutely ripe for He Chun, an excellent masturbation master who has been masturbating for at least three or five days a week before he crossed.
Sometimes when he doesn't have a friend to go out to make a skewer, this guy will go to the market and cut a knife of beef or mutton and take it home, chop it into pieces, and then marinate it, smear it with those high-quality spices prepared by himself to roast it, and watch football while drinking beer while roasting.
That kind of life was definitely the happiest time in life for He Chun, a single dog otaku fat man at that time.
Lan Meng and Ah Qiu, who was standing on the side, were completely stunned, and looked at this He Daya with affectionate eyes sniffing the spices, and then chattering crookedly a lot of things, which made people wonder.
"Blue girl, that thing can't be a drug or a fragrance, right? Why is my young master chattering with a god who looks like a ghost......" Ah Qiu leaned into Lan Meng's ear and asked in a low voice.
