Webster is literate, the number is limited, that is, she can memorize some female biographies and the like, she does not come, only Wen Han, holding the book to study for a long time, and finally sighed: "I am still not as good as Wen Jin, he sometimes doesn't know the words, but he is deeper than I think, and he understands more, it is he who reads books more than me, and is more willing to work harder than me." Since then, Wen Han has not only read the explanations in the books, but also understood the explanations with his heart, and his understanding of the Analects has improved by leaps and bounds, no less than that of an excellent child who studies with his husband in the school every day.

In the following days, Wen Jin and Wen Han experimented many times. Wen Jin learned it in chemistry class, and she remembered the steps and materials very accurately, but unfortunately the raw materials were wrong, and she couldn't measure its purity, so she had to try it again and again, tossing for seven or eight days, and the ingredients finally bubbled.

She used three recipes to marinate the duck eggs in separate jars, and after seven or eight days, the marinating process was over, Wen Jin couldn't wait to take some samples and knock them open for inspection, and two cylinders were completed, and one cylinder was broken.

Wen Jin wrote down the recipe for the best pot and gave the other pot to relatives and neighbors to eat. Then, a lot of pickling began.

Lime, plant ash and alkaline soil react to form caustic, duck eggs are soaked in, and the lye meets the protein and undergoes chemical changes, which is the principle of pickling.

In six or seven days, the chemical reaction is complete, and the next step is the problem of storage and transportation.

With the marinated soup stock and puree, wrap the marinated duck eggs, and then roll them on the wheat coating. (The book is a rice husk, Wen Jin doesn't have it, he makes his own opinion, and changes it to wheat clothes)

There are no rubber gloves, direct contact with lye and mud, the skin of both hands is corroded, red and swollen, painful to death, the mountain came, saw very distressed, went home and asked Tieshan to burn off the hair of the gray squirrel, and made several pairs of leather gloves for them, which solved the problem.

Wang Jishan personally took the egg sample and went to the provincial capital. He remembered that it was this smell, but he was still not sure, he rushed back in twenty days, and brought his relatives with him, and when he saw Wen Jin, stars could appear in both eyes: "That's right, that's the smell." ”

"Uncle Wang, don't be happy yet, let's open it again and taste it, it is said that it can be stored for half a year, but now it has only been stored for a month."

"You can't be wrong." Wang Jishan is a businessman, and he can't hold back the excitement in his heart at this moment.

"I tasted it half a month ago, and I was hungry." Wen Jin couldn't help it, Wang Jishan listened, naturally understood what it meant, and spoke of Wen Jin at a higher level in his heart.

casually took out a pine egg from the tank, peeled it off, and saw that the dark green had some blackened egg whites, shining slightly, Wang Jishan nodded again and again. Wen Jin peeled a few more, rinsed them with cool boiled water, cut a plate, and invited Wang Jishan and his relative Mr. Shen to taste them.

Mr. Shen is very particular about dressing, the muslin gown, the jade crown with the hair tied on his head is shiny and ruize, it should be the best mutton fat jade, there is no more luxurious decoration on his body, and the whole person looks atmospheric and restrained.

Wei and Wen Han can't see that this person is rich at all, although the three of them don't understand jade, Wen Jin still has a little knowledge, and the two of them naturally don't know the goods, Wei Shi later sighed: "That kind of fine cloth, I don't know how to spin the thread." "It turns out that her focus is on that.

Mr. Shen personally negotiated the price with Wen Jin: "You only need to promise to sell it to my family, thirty yuan each, and I will send someone to transport it, and each time it will be settled." I'll give you some loose money, but it won't be much, after all, copper coins are not easy to carry, and more are silver, okay? ”

"Okay!" Wen Jin nodded, she estimated that a behemoth could be sold for about a hundred yuan, although the other party took most of the profits, but what he gave him was also very considerable, to the point that he had never dreamed of before.

Wang Jishan is really good, if he only says that it is twice as expensive as salted duck eggs, it is Liuwen, and Wen Jin will sell it happily, which is more than he expected.

Mr. Shen is not bad, in the process of transportation and storage, there will be losses and costs, they are responsible for the most risky part of the process of commodity circulation, but they are not so harsh on Wen Jin's side.

Wen Jin was very satisfied.

Wen Han and Webster were simply ecstatic.

Mr. Shen saw that Wen Jin agreed very happily, but he was very calm, he didn't even have a surprised look, looking at Wen Jin's eyes, he sank slightly, and it just flashed, and it passed.

Pickled about 500 duck eggs, with Mr. Shen walking, Mr. Shen gave Wen Jin two five taels of silver, on which the words "Hengxin" are the most trusted by the entire Hedong people, just those two words, are not made by ordinary people, Wen Han immediately copied it, Wen Jin also felt that it must be true.

At this time, there are very few fakes. What's more, Wang Jishan can't run, and he can't cheat people for ten taels of silver.

The rest was a sawn silver bill, which would not be less than two and a half by eye, and Wang Jishan gave another two and a half copper coins.

"Oh, Wen Jin, I heard that you tasted the duck eggs for the villagers." Wang Jishan suddenly remembered.

Wen Jin patted his head in annoyance, and smiled in a blink of an eye: "I told people that it was pickled, and when others asked, I said that I accidentally knocked over the lime bucket and couldn't deserve it anymore." ”

"Oh, well, that's it."

The conversation between Wen Jin and Wang Jishan fell in Mr. Shen's eyes, he had been very calm, only when Wang Jishan was annoyed, his eyebrows trembled very lightly.

This person is really deep, and he is definitely not something he can afford to provoke.

Fortunately, this person is a friend and not an enemy, and he is also very honest and relatively gentlemanly.

Send Mr. Shen away, and it's time to harvest the rice. Before Wen Jin and Wen Han's hands recovered, they planned to ask someone to harvest, and Wang Dashan came.

"Wen Jin, can we help you harvest the rice?"

"Okay!" Wen Han replied very happily, "Although there are only less than three acres, I estimate that I can collect a thousand catties, and we are three of us, where can we eat so much, Uncle Shan, I will share half of you." ”

"No, no, I didn't mean that." Dashan's face was very red again, "Wen Jin, I have a lot of family and little land, I didn't want to come, my father is sick, Mingshan, I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet......" He spoke incoherently, and after talking for a long time, no one could understand.

"Uncle Dashan, you don't want to plant rice next year, do you?"

One sentence made Wang Dashan's face suddenly red to the base of his neck.

"The relationship between our two families is so good, you can't even say it to me. I originally planned to leave 200 catties of rice to eat, and the rest will raise seedlings, who wants to plant next year, come and buy it casually, and I am responsible for teaching how to plant. However, regardless of the harvest, if something goes wrong halfway, you are not allowed to look for me. ”

"Don't look, don't look." Wang Dashan's face didn't know how to smile, "Wen Jin, where did you find such a good baby." ”

"But Uncle Dashan, to plant rice, you have to have a guaranteed water source, you have to be able to water at any time, neither drought nor waterlogging, the ground has to look wet and shiny, but you can't see the water, your land has such convenient conditions?"

"Yes, yes, my family has a piece of land, it is very close to this stream, hehe, the water flows past your land, turn two corners, and you will reach the edge of my house."

"That's good, you can make one like my waterwheel, and it's convenient to water the ground at that time."

The gratitude on Wang Dashan's face, I don't know how to describe it, only nodded vigorously.

"Why didn't Mingshan come?" Wen Jin interrupted.

"You want him to come?"

"Uh-huh."

"He also said so, Daddy has to say that he led you to the wrong way, don't allow it, I'll take him with me this rice."

"Okay."

Wei Shi enthusiastically stayed in the mountains to eat, her husband was not at home, but her son and nephew were small, but they could hold up the door, she did not have the feeling that it was inconvenient for a woman to be at home, anyway, her son accompanied the guests.

Dashan refused, and it could be seen that he was in a hurry to go home, Wei had no choice but to follow his wishes, and none of the eggs were gone, Wen Jin had to pack a rattan basket of salted duck eggs and fresh duck eggs, which were considered gifts, Wang Dashan refused to bring them, and the Qian family was reluctant to go, and took it with a red face.

Wen Han watched him walk out of the village, his face was full of joy, and he slapped happily: "Oh, I finally helped Uncle Da Shan, my heart is so peaceful." ”

He's really a person who can't stand the pressure of human affection.

After carrying Wei's back, Wen Jin talked to Wen Han: "Brother, if you want to take the imperial examination, you can't have such a heavy idea of repaying gratitude, you have to be principled." Wen Jin was very serious, Wen Han's mouth moved, but he couldn't answer, and in the end, he didn't nod or say no.

"There are many ways to repay gratitude, but if it is a matter of principle, there must be no concession, even if it is a bad name for ingratitude. Lu Yao knows that the horsepower has been seen for a long time, you are good and you are bad, it is not a thing that can be seen in a day or two. You have to have your own bottom line, otherwise, just farm at home with me. ”

Wen Han was surprised that Wen Jin would say this, but Wen Jin's words shocked him even more, and his eyes widened, he never thought that if he wanted to enter the imperial examination, in addition to studying hard now, he also had to study hard in other aspects.

The officialdom is deceitful, Wen Jin must start vaccinating his cousin early, otherwise, he won't know how he will die in the future.

Wen Jin told her about the situation of Mr. Shen she observed, and she didn't care if Wen Han would suspect anything about herself, anyway, from now on, she wanted to let this cousin mature as soon as possible.

When Wen Han harvested the rice the next day, he was still stunned, making Dashan think he was sick.

This man from Dashan has also confiscated rice, and he even brought his cousin, less than three acres, six rods of labor, and the harvest was completed in one day.

Wen Jin borrowed the wheat threshing field of his neighbor Uncle Wei, used a homemade threshing machine, that is, a log roller, to nail a lot of nails, and put the rice ears on top to thresh by stepping on the circle. It's a pity that the threshing machine is too small, at most one person steps on it, two people take off, the people of the Wang family have to help to do it, Dashan and Mingshan, as well as Baoshan and Linshan, two shifts are changed, one is threshing, one is spread out to dry, and the fine weather is also fun, busy for a few days, harvesting and drying, all completed.

There are 1,300 catties, and the yield per mu is more than 400.

Not only Shanwo Village, but also people in Linjin Town know about it. There are no good seeds, no fertilizers, no mechanized farming, and this yield is very staggering
