Wei Renshi didn't ask Zheng Li exactly how he made a contribution to the county order, but just looked at his attitude towards himself better, and it can be seen that the result should be good.

When I go home, the next thing I need to do is the competition in half a month.

Originally, Wei Renshi didn't have to be serious with the cautious old man. But when I thought that I would sell spices in the future, I started to think about it.

During the day, he saw that the cakes baked by the Hu Bakery were indeed good, but the meat sprinkled into them was only boiled in a kettle, and it tasted only salty.

And this old man didn't have an open mind, and he cooked mutton in the kettle, but he didn't remember to sell a bowl of mutton soup when he sold Hu cakes.

It just so happened that Wei Renshi bought some medicinal herbs from Jikang Tang today that can be used as spices, and there are several items in them that are suitable for boiling broth.

It was also Wei Renshi who paid attention, and when he said the competition today, he didn't make it clear that the comparison was the cooking cake sold by a single cooking cake shop, but only that it tasted better.

In this way, if he is indulged, he can't make a cake that is comparable to Wang Laohan's, but there are more ways to eat the bread.

Make pies, burritos, meat buns...... Isn't it all the same way to eat?

Wang Laohan's Hu cake is a bit like a bag, isn't it also a delicious way to eat it when it is broken and soaked in mutton soup?

When the time comes, if you can win Wang Laohan, and then attribute the reason to the seasoning, it will spread all of a sudden.

It is precisely because of this that Wei Renshi deliberately compares things that he doesn't care about.

Well, Ben Gongzi is really a planner!

The only regret is that cumin has not yet been introduced to the Central Plains, only in the Western Regions. If you want to drag the Hu merchants back from the Western Regions. It's a pity that Hu Shang has to go to Chang'an City, Luoyang City and other metropolises to find it, and it takes a lot of time to bring it back.

This mutton lacks cumin, and it is not delicious enough.

Although Changgu's blacksmith skills are not as good as those in Fuchang City, the ability to make a wok is still enough.

The mutton in the burrito, after all, is not beautiful when cooked, although there is an iron pot at the moment, but there is no woks suitable for stir-frying, and although the form of stir-fry has appeared, it is far from popular. Although an iron plate can do it, I thought that I would use it myself in the future anyway, so I was ready to make a wok and come out.

If you want to fry lamb, you have to have oil. Fortunately, there was already edible sesame oil in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, so you can buy some of it.

Before the Han Dynasty, the oil consumed by people was animal oil, and the acquisition of vegetable oil began in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The consumption of vegetable oil has been available since the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. According to the Northern Wei Dynasty's Jia Sixian's "Qi Min Yaoshu", sesame oil, eonseed oil and hemp seed oil were already used in food and cooking at that time.

Later, in the Song Dynasty, there were more types of vegetable oil, and soybean oil and vegetable oil, which had a better taste and were more suitable for stir-frying, appeared one after another, which also made the cooking method of stir-frying quickly popular.

As for pork...... Pork is made into meat oil cakes, and the meat residue mixed into the cake after oil refining is not too delicious. However, considering how people think about pork these days, if you make white Ji Bao, maybe you will be despised?

But on the other hand, if even pork that everyone finds fishy and difficult to eat can be made mouth-watering, and then attributed to the seasoning, wouldn't it be more proof of the benefits of the seasoning?

It's just that the current pigs are not castrated, and the fishy taste of pork is really a problem.

I don't know if the homemade cooking wine can suppress the fishiness.

Cooking wine is a good thing, the most mainstream at the moment is to eat mutton, if cooking wine can suppress the fishy taste of pork, then used to remove the smell of mutton, not to mention it, wouldn't it sell very well.

Oh, if you have the capital in the future, you can also make light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, and chicken essence...... These things can actually be homemade, and although the taste is not as good as the one bought, it is already very good in this era.

The more Wei Renshi thought about it, the more he felt that the future was bright.

Maybe one day I can live a life of gentleness?!

After buying everything except meat, he spent all the copper coins he had left, and asked Zheng Lizheng to borrow it again, and the sun was almost about to set.

When he returned to Changgu, he put everything in Zheng Lizheng's house, and found a wooden basin to pour soybeans to wet it, and Wei Renshi went back.

Early the next morning, Wei Renshi went to Zheng Lizheng's house again, preparing to use his house as a testing ground—if he took them all back to his own house to do it, I am afraid that Mrs. Tai would scold him for not doing his job properly, and he would never be allowed to do these things again.

Seeing that the soybeans were almost evenly wet, he dug a hole in the bottom of the wooden basin, spread the soybeans, sprinkled some water on them, and covered them with several layers of linen.

Then cover the tub with a lid and keep it out of the light, and then wait.

"Wei Langjun, what are you doing?" Zheng Li lived alone, and when he saw Wei Renshi coming early in the morning, he asked curiously.

"Make a vegetable." Wei Renshi knew that eating bean sprouts had only become popular in the Northern Song Dynasty, so he didn't feel strange to see Zheng Lizheng.

After finishing the work, he began to take out some of the medicinal herbs he bought yesterday and crush them into powder, which was then used to prepare other spices. Keep the rest of the melancholy, and it is easy to use when making homemade cooking wine.

"Wei Langjun, you have to go out once, and you can do it yourself." Zheng Lizheng looked at it for a while, got up and said to Wei Renshi: "Today, I can run to his three or five villages and sell a few ploughs." ”

"There is no evidence, Uncle Zheng had better bring a donkey cart and pull the plough over to demonstrate directly, it is better than many words." Wei Renshi said.

"This one can be saved." Zheng Lizheng nodded.

Wei Renshi took out a few more pieces of paper, handed them to Zheng Lizheng, and said, "Uncle Zheng helped me give this drawing to the blacksmith, and asked him to beat things out with pig iron according to the drawings." It has to be pig iron. ”

"Good!" Zheng Lizheng took the drawings and asked by the way: "A certain and a blacksmith are illiterate, can they just bring this pattern to the past?" ”

"It's okay, it's simple, the blacksmith will understand it by looking at the pattern." Wei Renshi said.

After Zheng Lizheng left, Wei Renshi tried it out at his house.

He had also made homemade seasonings before, but it was all cooked at home by himself, which was a hobby, and it was also a time to kill, so it was not difficult to eat. Now that you are ready to sell it, you must take it seriously.

Fang tried himself for a long time before he heard someone knocking on the door outside. When I went out and opened the door, I saw that Xi'er was standing outside.

"Xi'er? Why are you here, didn't A-Niang find out? Wei Renshi saw that it was Xi'er, so he hurriedly asked a little nervously.

Xi'er shook her head and replied, "A few people came to the house, saying that they were looking for Lang Jun." There is a fat one who also said that Lang Jun is his benefactor. Mrs. Tai asked me to come out and find Lang Jun. ”

Hearing Xi'er's answer like this, Wei Renshi breathed a sigh of relief. He said that he wanted to learn from Li He to go out to find sentences, and Li He now has a reputation for being outside, so Mrs. Tai allowed him.

Yesterday, Jiao Haiqing said that he wanted to come to the door to thank him, but he didn't expect to find him today.

Wei Renshi remembered that he didn't leave him a place to live, but he didn't know how he found out where his house was.

"Okay, then I'll go back with you when I clean up a bit." Wei Renshi explained to Xi'er: "You just said that you found me in Li He's house, don't say that you leaked your mouth!" ”
