Chapter 3: The Tragedy Caused by a Bean Sprout (Part I)
After Jiang Jianghao listened to Ah Qi's offer, he had to sigh that Qin Guo was really a rich country and a strong people! This price is too high! However, this high also has the advantage of being high, the higher the price, the faster he can make money. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info He's curious to see what kind of new challenges the system will give him after completing the newbie mission!
However, these five copper coins can only buy one and a half catties of radishes at most, and in this era when there are not even a few seasonings, what earth-shattering delicacy can he make with radishes?
Seven things to open the door: firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea. Everything is closely related to [eating], but it is not an opportunity to take advantage of at this stage. After thinking about it, there is only one thing you can try to do, and that is selling bean sprouts!
For him, a veteran foodie, Shuifa bean sprouts are not technically difficult at all. In this country where the variety of vegetables is extremely scarce, there is a fresh and delicious ingredient out of thin air, and the rich and noble must be vying to buy it.
He handed over the only five copper coins on his body to Ah Qi, and explained cautiously: "Ah Qi, you go into the city early tomorrow morning to buy five copper coins of soybeans and come back." Remember to buy this year's new beans, don't break the beans, the more round and plump the beans, the better. ā
Although Ah Qi had doubts, he still put the money away and nodded seriously: "Okay, Brother Jiang." ā
The next morning, before dawn, Ah Qi went into the city alone to buy beans. And Jiang Jianghao was not idle, he rummaged through the cabinets in the thatched hut for a long time, and finally found a few pieces of clean cotton cloth in the corner of the cabinet. Then he retrieved a half-sized wooden basin from the kitchen.
After washing the wooden basin slowly, and walking around the periphery of the hut twice, he found that this piece of land was quite fertile, and it should be suitable for him to grow some special ingredients and seasonings.
He slowly paced back to the door, and was about to push the door in, but he heard a series of footsteps from far and near, and when he looked around, he saw Ah Qi holding a white cloth bag in his arms, running towards him quickly. He went into the house and poured a glass of water and put it on the table, and Ah Qi also happened to enter the house. After Ah Qi came in, he immediately put the cloth bag in his arms on the table, and then picked up the water cup and poured two mouthfuls of water.
He looked at Ah Qi with a strange expression, and saw that he was disheveled, his hair was loose, and there were faint traces of abrasions on his face, so he couldn't help but be a little worried, so he asked, "Are you fighting with someone?" ā
Who knew that Ah Qi wiped his face indifferently, but said to him expectantly: "I'm fine!" Brother Jiang, let's see if this bean is to your liking? ā
Jiang Jianghao couldn't wait to open the cloth bag, and when he saw the bright and full and round small yellow beans inside, he couldn't help but exclaim: "It's amazing!" This is the best soybean he has ever seen, in his time, soybeans are basically genetically modified products, and the soybeans of this era are obviously pure natural and pollution-free! It's just that the number of beans seems to be a little different from what he wants to buy.
"Ah Qi, it's only five copper coins, and you actually bought so many beans! How did you do that? He clearly remembered that Ah Qi told him yesterday that soybeans were fifteen copper coins a catty, and five copper coins were only five taels of beans at most. But the bag of soybeans in front of him should be at least as much as a pound.
Ah Qi smiled shyly: "I bought beans in Beicheng today, the fifth aunt who sold beans is a good person, and she used to help me, I told her that I now have the master's family, and this time I came to help the master's family buy." After that, she sold me a pound of beans for five copper coins. ā
The fifth aunt who sells beans? Perhaps in the near future, he could consider working with her to develop his great bean sprouts business together.
He spread out the beans on the table, carefully sifted them one by one, and didn't forget to turn his head to arrange work for Ah Qi halfway: "Ah Qi, go to the kitchen and help me boil a pot of hot water." ā
The beans were picked and the water was boiled. Jiang Jianghao called Ah Qi aside and asked him to remember what he was going to do next. A hero has three gangs, and one chopstick does not make a pair! If you want to complete the beginner task as soon as possible, it is not enough for him to work his own.
After adjusting the hot water to a slight hot hand, he soaked the beans in the hot water for two minutes, then washed them twice with cold water and put them in a wooden basin that he had prepared in advance. Since it was still the height of summer, he poured the same amount of water as soybeans into the basin, covered it with cotton cloth, carefully placed the wooden basin in a shady corner of the house, and finally straightened up and clapped his hands and said, "It's done!" ā
Ah Qi looked surprised next to him, and pointed to the basin on the ground: "That's okay?" "Seeing that Jiang Jianghao is so cautious and careful, and so particular, I thought it would be something amazing, but it turned out that he was just soaking beans, but can the beans still be eaten after soaking?
Jiang Jianghao nodded with satisfaction at Ah Qi: "Yes, that's fine!" But it's going to take a few more days. ā
The next day, Jiang Jianghao took Ah Qi and began to pound the beans in the basin, he first poured the water prepared in advance into the basin, the amount of water was about two fingers of the beans, and then poured out all the water in the basin. After repeating this two or three times, the same amount of water as the soybeans was left in the pot, and finally the cotton cloth was covered and the pot was put back in its place.
On the third day, it was the two of them who repeated yesterday's work, the only difference was that this time Jiang Jianghao deliberately put a slate on the cotton cloth after covering the cotton cloth.
In the evening, Jiang Jianghao and Ah Qi were munching on steamed buns face to face, thinking that in another day, his bean sprouts would be completed, so he couldn't stop being excited: "Ah Qi! Our baby is coming out tomorrow, are you excited? ā
Ah Qi also nodded excitedly, although he simply soaked the soybeans in the water, but the next day, he saw that the soybeans in the pot slowly grew a small tail, and in the next time, the little tail became longer and longer, gradually forming a crystal full stem bud.
"Damn, Lao Tzu has been gnawing on steamed buns for four days in a row, and if he continues like this, his mouth will fade out of the bird!" There was no salt and no taste for several days in a row, which was even more abrasive than Ling Chi for a senior omnivorous foodie.
Under Jiang Jianghao's ardent anticipation, the fourth day finally arrived.
He placed the basin on the table, removed the slate pressed against the cotton, and pinched the ends of the cotton cloth with both hands.
"Dangdang~dang~dang! Jiang Ji Shuifa bean sprouts are grandly debuted! ā
The pot was full of soybean sprouts shining against the water, and Ah Qihong's fluttering little face was splashed with cotton cloth, looking a little embarrassed, but the excitement in his eyes was not affected at all.
Jiang Jianghao took out some of the bean sprouts, and pushed the rest in front of Ah Qi: "Ah Qi, all your tasks today are to sell!" Beans! Bud! ā
