Potatoes and sweet potatoes have gone through two ripening periods in the Badaohe area, and now there are too many left, except for the pre-made seeds, and the population in this area is too much to eat. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Of course, Zhang Guoan has to take the road of deep processing.

Sweet potatoes are full of treasures, and they can be grown in hilly and mountainous areas, without competing for farmland.

Its leaves are not only edible for man, but also for feeding all domestic animals, especially pigs and buffalo.

Zhang Guoan's treatment of sweet potatoes is relatively simple, some of them are washed and steamed in a large pot, sliced and dried, and after leaving a part of the sweet potatoes, the rest is sold directly to the Great Song Dynasty!

The other part is cut directly into fresh slices with a hand-wheel slicer, dried in the sun, and kept for grinding with water and wind power stones to process into starch, or to make vermicelli, or to process alcohol.

The potatoes are all processed into starch.

The potatoes they brought were Elm No. 1 with a high starch content, which had a short growth period and high yield.

Zhang Guoan's method of processing potato starch is the traditional processing method in his hometown, which is washed and ground first, which uses about five times the amount of water used as raw materials.

In this way, the water that is drawn down with a clay pipe has an impact.

After washing, it is sent to a grinder for processing. The grinder used is a hardwood pile hammered type.

The ground potato paste is sifted.

He uses an eight-person flat shake sieve, which is washed with water during the screening process, and the slag on the sieve is used for the second screening to recover part of the starch, and the cleaned starch slag can be used as livestock feed.

The starch milk from the sieving section is separated from the protein and other impurities in the launder and then cleaned in the cleaning tank.

Yellow syrup with starch is separated from the launder and sent to the launder to recover the starch, and then the secondary starch is obtained through the cleaning tank, which cannot be wasted.

After starch washing. The water content is very high, and it must be dehydrated with a centrifuge, at this time, he uses the transmission gear and animal power as the driving force, which is conducive to controlling the speed.

Finally dry starch is obtained. Barrel storage.

During the whole processing process, he led the workers to process step by step, and each step was carefully explained.

When the processing began the next day, he was still on the spot, carefully watching their operation, and the results were not bad, and he was relieved.

After they had amassed a stockpile, Zhang decided to teach them how to process vermicelli and how to press potato flour.

Today. For dinner, they will collectively eat hot and sour seafood potato noodles, or spicy seafood potato noodles, accompanied by potato cakes.

Vermicelli and potato flour are simple to process, no need to go into detail, as long as the potato starch is reconciled, there is animal power pressing equipment and leakage nets, and the whole equipment does not use metal.

On this night, all the people who ate in the cafeteria were served a wide strip of soup cakes. But Zhang Guoan explicitly ordered them to call it potato flour uniformly, and if it is not enough, it can be added at any time.

Taking into account the receptivity, of course. It's a little spicy.

Zhang Guoan and Jing Jing did not eat at home this time, and also went to the canteen, because if the Great Song laborers could accept this kind of food this time, then it would be a complete success.

This time, the director of their cafeteria was told to add only a little corn flour to the hash browns. The rest is all potato products.

If you can gladly accept it, then there will be no worries about famine, and for the development of Liuqiu Island, it may be possible to get rid of the hidden danger of food. Striding on the second stage.

Blacksmith Hu Zhenbei ate three bowls and ten potato cakes alone! shouted that this soup cake was delicious------ a little spicy, it could be spicy into sweaty and steaming.

Zhang Guoan and Jing were eating and laughing, their school did not have a cafeteria, they ate this every day at noon back then, it was eight yuan a piece at that time, and now it should be ten yuan, right?

The two of them think that the taste is not bad, the key is that the seafood ingredients are fresh enough and very flavorful.

This dinner, everyone seems to be happy.

The husband and wife smiled at each other, as long as they could eat it, everything would be easy.

For chili noodles, Zhang Guoan definitely wants to play its greatest role!

Why can the price of pepper make those merchants fry so high, and my chili noodles will not be successful?!

Of course, he first purposefully released small and spicy varieties, so that those merchants could try them, and waited for everyone to get used to them, and then launched medium and spicy varieties.

The Hui merchant also bought some chili noodles and left, thinking that it might be a spice peculiar to the area.

In Pu Shougeng's chessboard garden, everyone listened to the story of the returning merchant.

On the opposite side of the strait, after crossing Pinghu Island, and walking southeast, there is a place called Badaohe, where there is a small town with a population of less than 20,000, and it is really unthinkable that it can produce so many things.

There are many windmills and watermills, and everyone seems to be busy working.

Their clothes were narrow, probably because of the lack of cotton.

They built a long dam there, and under the impact of the current, the waterwheel turned much faster than the windmill, and they used it to drive a huge stone mill.

There is a castle there, and there seems to be a family on it.

In fact, many merchants did not care about these, but about the goods he brought back.

The merchant showed the bill of goods to everyone, and then showed the sample.

According to the previous rules, everyone will be asked to pay for it again, and those who pay more will get more.

Pu Shougeng came first, and he directly bought ten wooden barrels of toilet water, five porcelain jars of cool oil, and five porcelain jars of glycerin face balm.

Then, he smiled and watched everyone pay for it.

Everyone knows that Pu Shou Gengfan first wants these goods, only for his own use.

At this time, there were still a lot of goods left, and everyone humbly paid each other to subscribe.

Because all the merchants have heard about it, and if they go back in ten days, they will still supply------ the reason why they didn't wait there is still because they are afraid that everyone will be in a hurry.

Pu Shougeng stroked his beard and said happily: "It seems that we have found another business source------ if we buy more, we can go to sea with other goods."

So, it seems necessary to build a few trading posts in their place------ which of you would like to go there? ”

The merchants did not rush to speak, because it was only a small town, and this is the world-famous city of light.

Yes, during this period, the population of Thornton City was about 1329940 255758 households, and foreigners who came to Quanquan to do business or settle in the city were all over Asia, Africa and Europe.

In Thornton, you can easily meet Indians, Jews, Franks, Italians, Armenians, etc., and can hear more than 100 accents.

There is only one small town on that large island, with a population of no more than 20,000.

At this time, an Italian named Yabu stood up and said, "Dear Chief, I think I can go there------"

Pu Shou Geng was happy, this Italian was only here for half a year, and he was able to learn the Great Song dialect, which was very smart. (To be continued.) )
