Chapter 221: Kneading the dough

The bicycle is a means of transportation, which is beneficial to the people, even if the practice of the bicycle is handed over to the general as a prisoner. The superintendent will not be able to stop the Fan family manor from continuing to renovate the production of bicycles. If the general prison itself has enough research spirit, they will also transform the bicycle, because Fan Jingjing knows very well that the current bicycle is not in the best state, at least he is very heavy and wants to make it lighter, so the technology just now must be improved.

If you want to use a bicycle for military purposes, you have to keep improving.

But Fan Jingjing must use bicycles in the private sector, so the cost must be considered.

And the development direction of the two will not be the same.

The price of cereals. There has never been a way to sell at too high a price, so the cost must be kept down.

After all, if the wheat produced in the Fan family manor is ground into flour and sold, it is still not suitable to sell it at a low price, but the expensive price is impossible for ordinary people to accept.

The steamed buns made from the flour of the Fan family manor can only be sold to some wealthy families, or wealthy families, or sold internally in the Fan family manor.

She knew that all the products produced in the Fan family manor were relatively nutritious and delicious.

The nutritional value cannot be judged by the tongue of ordinary people, but the degree of deliciousness can be experienced by ordinary tongues, so it has a high value.

Organic with the product is not organic, which product is not organic in this era? There is no need to stress about it.

To make steamed buns to sell, you can let many small traders sell them.

Increase the employment rate a lot.

However, even if the biggest problem of the displaced people in Datang is not that there is no land to develop, but that people have no food reserves, there is no way to develop new land, and new land is often more dangerous, so every time new land is developed, not only collective behavior, but also food reserves for a year or several months.

The development of Fanjia Manor and Fanjia Town was a demonstration of collective behavior from the very beginning.

Near Chang'an, due to the emergence of the Fanjia Manor workshop, the farming efficiency has been improved a lot.

But the problem is that due to the problem of drought in this season, there is no way to cultivate farmland in many places, if it is the land near the Fan family manor, Fan Jingjing took the initiative to give potatoes and sweet potatoes for them to cultivate, and potatoes and sweet potatoes do not have such heavy requirements for the season.

What's more, summer is originally the season of growth, but a little farther away, if you haven't heard of the Fan family manor, you will naturally refuse to accept these new crops.

Don't think that people near Chang'an have heard of the Fan family manor, for ordinary rural people, the place beyond ten miles of their countryside is far away, and it will take a long, long time for the news from afar to reach their ears, and it will be very significant.

The cultivation of potatoes and sweet potatoes and corn, and the abundant harvest are also important news, and the average farmer always wants to see the results of other people's experiments.

This person is not a stranger, but a person around him who can work with confidence, unless there is strong pressure from above.

Therefore, the cultivation of new crops often starts with large landowners, who can take out a part of the land for experimentation. They are also able to take the risk of low crop yields.

Due to the severe drought in the vicinity of Chang'an, many fields cannot be sown and cultivated smoothly, and no matter how much labor is paid, there is no way to harvest, so there is a lot more idle manpower.

People are not only worried about the problem of not having food this year, this year's cultivation represents next year's grain, although it is short-term, but the idle labor means that they will have no food to eat in the coming year, so the farmers who have no way to farm will find a way to find some work to do, and find a way to make some money, but where are there so many owners in this area?

No one is willing to pay for labor, so there is more labor, but fortunately there are many people who pay for work, and they will give out some food, so they can save the food at home and save it for next year.

Therefore, letting these people sell steamed bread can at least solve their current problems, and after the steamed bread becomes popular in the future, these original farmers want to sell steamed bread in the city with peace of mind, which will cause greater problems.

Nowadays, most people are trying to solve these food problems.

Focusing on the things in front of you is the fault of the feudal era.

They don't have so much money, they still have the ability, they think about next year, the things in front of them are solved, and people live one more year, which is an important thing for them, and as for what happens next year, it's none of their business.

The duties of officials are very clear, their own problems are solved, and where to manage others.

As for cooperation, unless there is pressure from above, it is their happiest thing to see others unlucky, because if others are unlucky, a position will be vacated, and they can arrange for relatives to go up to this position, and if this position is on their head, it is the position they are fighting for.

"Now that we've cultivated so much, we can sell some of the yeast."

"But who wouldn't be able to buy those things!" Wen Qing was very entangled, in their daily life, they really didn't need what he cultivated.

Can't find anyone to use, Fan Jingjing felt very simple, she said to Sun Erlang:

"Let's see if there are any idle people in the Fan family's manor, call over."

"The people in the Fan family manor have jobs, and they are still busy everywhere."

Sun Erlang had a bitter face at the Fan family manor, he really didn't raise idlers, everyone was a hired worker, so everyone needed to work.

"Is there an old man who can work, this job is very easy......

"Except for the people lying on the hospital bed, no idlers are very busy, even the elderly will do what they can, they say that they can't receive allowances in vain, they must also be able to pay, not to mention that they can get something if they pay."

What Sun Erlang didn't say was that the salary of the Fan family manor was so high, as long as he was willing to do things, even if he was a handyman, the salary could be eaten for many days.

So for the elderly, how can they let go of the opportunity to do things?

Even lying down people are able to find what they can do.

"Then you can go to Fanjia Town to find it...... There are always some idle people in Fanjia Town. ”

"Yes, yes, most of these people are crammed into group houses and have not yet settled down."

"What group room?"

"Because we were afraid that someone on the side of the road would freeze to death or starve to death and no one would take care of them, we arranged space for them to stay, but there was no way for them to rent a room, so we put two floors of beds, which could accommodate 16 people, and they had to have a job to be able to move in. We calculate the cost, which is a penny for each day we live. So it will be deducted from their food, or let them do a little more.

They haven't found a regular job yet, they always do odd jobs everywhere, and they don't have anything more specialty, they don't talk like other people, they do one thing to the end, and they don't need to look at us to help them after they have a long talent. ”

"Aren't they serious about their work?"

Fan Jingjing doesn't like flamboyant tongues, or lazy people.

People who want to make steamed buns must pay attention to food hygiene, and these people are often not particularly obedient and do what they should do.

Fan Jingjing doesn't like such people.

"If you are so poor that you have nothing to eat, and you are not willing to do things seriously, isn't that looking for death?

These people just don't have time to grasp every time they have a new job, and when a job opportunity appears, it's always a step slower, and the current owner can't use too many people, so these people have been grinding until now. I'm afraid that after the cash-for-work work is done in the end, they will still have to go back to work obediently.

Barely so that he would not starve to death. In fact, their work efficiency is not as good as that of skilled workers, if we don't need to pay salaries, we only need to give them food, we really don't want to use it, and we have to find something suitable for their work, if something happens to them, we are also in trouble. ”

Fan Jingjing thought about it for a while, making steamed buns is not too high a skill, no matter how a person practices kneading dough a few more times, not to mention that kneading dough is a skill for a person's survival, many people have long been educated by their parents, how can men not, women will always will.

"Get some people from inside who care about cleanliness." Fan Jingjing commanded.

Sun Erlang had a bitter face, all the people looked dirty, who paid attention to cleanliness and hygiene, they couldn't see it from the appearance at all.

However, if this question is taught by Fan Jingjing, he, the steward of the Fan family's manor, will be too ineffective.

There is no way to do this, and we have to find a way to judge.

Fan Jingjing signaled and asked Sun Erlang to go out to find it immediately, Sun Erlang had to leave Wen Qing out, fortunately, this era is not very strict about the defense of men and women, but alone with a man, Fan Jingjing also felt very much to be wary of, so she walked out with Wen Qing.

"The yeast that is raised, find a way to dry it and turn it into dry yeast, and then divide it into a small packet, a small packet, not too big a packet, because the amount of yeast needed for each steamed bread will not be too much."

Although I don't understand what Fan Jingjing said about steamed bread, it sounds like a finished product that yeast can make.

Doing something like yeast is not a big problem for Wen Qing, as long as he divides it into small packets, he will do it very simply.

"You can't dry it, you can't dry it in the sun, the yeast will die, and you have to let the yeast go back into the water and still have a life.

I don't know how to do it, but you can do some research, and when you do it, we can sell a lot of yeast. ”

"Then I'll do it right away."

"Let's bring some fresh yeast first, and when Sun Erlang brings people over, I'll let you see the function of yeast." By the way, Sun Erlang didn't come back so soon anyway, prepare a big pot and put a steamer on it, now you can not boil the water first, but you have to put the water away first. ”

Fan Jingjing can find something to do no matter what occasion she is, but people who can't be idle, take out the account book casually, Fan Jingjing began to settle accounts for the Fan family manor, as the owner of a manor, the most important thing is to sum up money, and what any group supports is money. In Datang, food can also be added.

Food can also be used as money, and if there is only money and no food, people will starve to death.

Food is still very important.

It's a product of the times.

Sun Erlang probably rode out on a bicycle, and when he brought people back, Fan Jingjing found that these people didn't seem to be very hygienic and gray-faced, and their hands were also full of all kinds of dirt, and the nail dirt was very clear.

"Mrs. Fan, I arranged these people to take a bath, I must wash them clean, and I have no way to find cleaner people.

It's summer and I'm not afraid to take a cold shower, and I'll have someone come and help clean their nails. ”

Sun Erlang probably knew what Fan Jingjing would pay special attention to at this time, and hurriedly explained.

"Okay, clean up and down, by the way, you take out the flour, I'll use it later."

"Okay, I'll explain."

Finally, when everyone came back and was ready, Fan Jingjing began to guide everyone to knead the dough, and then knead the yeast into it, kneading the dough, it is not an advanced kung fu, everyone will do it, but this time a fungus was added, and according to Fan Jingjing's instructions, sugar and salt were added.

After kneading into three lights, let them set the dough aside and cover it to rise.

Continuing to knead the dough, Fan Jingjing prepared that every person in Fan's Manor and Fanjia Town would send a steamed bun to taste, and if they hadn't eaten it, they wouldn't have consumed it, and they would feel that the steamed buns were delicious after eating.

Fan Jingjing is ready to sell steamed steamed buns and good dough, as for the yeast, she will not spread it for the time being, and is ready to use yeast to make a fortune.

There is no way, the bicycle thing made Fan Jingjing very injured and had to be filled elsewhere.

If you want to fill it, you can't make the court feel painful, you have to find a place where the court feels indifferent, steamed bread will not be an expensive product, but a livelihood product, if you can sell yeast, people can make their own steamed bread at home to eat, but although you can sell yeast, there is no way to collect more profits.

Fan Jingjing must give up the market in the countryside, the countryside is basically a self-sufficient society, and he will not go to the city to buy things, the traffic is too inconvenient in this era, at most Fan Jingjing, do a good job of thermal insulation, and help the steamed buns be transported to the countryside to sell.

Steamed bread is also a relatively light thing, but the hot steamed bread will be better than the dry and cold steamed bread, if you can exchange the food for the steamed bread, the steamed bread should be sold, because there are really not many coins in the countryside.

The people who go to the countryside to sell steamed buns can be ordinary people, not Fan Jingjing, Fan Jingjing can sell dough and let them go back to make steamed buns, at most charge a little cost price.

I want to chat with more like-minded people about "Cantang", pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
