Chapter 5: Tsuchikata
"Dao Chief, there is no wine at home, only this little tea is missing?"
"Yes, peel the garlic and put it in a pot and mash it into a puree, then boil this tea with water, don't add anything, boil more, cook thoroughly, I will use it later."
Li Anran actually wanted to help, but Zhao Er didn't agree to anything, so he could only use his mouth to tell the matter.
Mrs. Zhao, who brought the little ones into the house before, hurriedly took over the work of peeling garlic after hearing this. In addition to the youngest one, the two half-sized children also helped out.
Zhao Er hesitated for a moment after boiling the tea, then gritted his teeth and went out of the house, running along the sheep intestine path towards the village.
It was a few minutes before and after, and I saw Zhao Er running back with a small black jar.
"Dao Chief, do you like this wine?"
At the first glance of the small black jar, Li Anran knew that the other party was holding wine. It's okay to have no alcohol, but it's better to have it.
It's just that Li Anran is a little sorry, this wine jar is not filled with white wine from later generations but rice wine, just by smelling the taste, you know that the degree of this wine is not high.
"Put the wine aside, wait for the garlic to be ready, and then pour it into a basin and mix well. With this thing, this tea can be used later. ”
With Mrs. Zhao taking her eldest daughter and the second child to do it together, the string of garlic was soon peeled, and then the wooden pestle was directly pestled in the basin.
When the garlic paste and the jar of rice wine were poured together to make a small pot of garlic old wine soup, Zhao Da, who had left before, also led a dark brown cow into the yard.
After seeing this cow, Li Anran understood what Zhao Dawei would be fooled. No, because the cow looks very strong on the surface.
After circling the cow twice, and looking at the cow's buttocks without being dirty, Li Anran nodded and ordered: "Zhao Er, you and Zhao Da together, pour this pot of garlic old wine soup into this cow." ”
"Oops!"
Zhao Er, who got the instructions, immediately followed his brother and began to pour the garlic paste mixed with old rice wine for the cow.
In fact, the principle of this soil method is very simple, the function of garlic is to sterilize, and the role of old wine is to dispel cold.
Regardless of whether it is a human or an animal, as long as you have intestinal fetish, which is commonly known as dysentery, the use of this trick is basically a hundred tried.
It only takes three or four drinks, and no matter how thin you pull, it will stop you.
Considering that this jar of rice wine was borrowed by Zhao Erxian from the villagers, Li Anran decided to take care of it, in addition to this pot of garlic old wine soup, the pot of tea soup was also used later.
The tannins contained in tea are a good medicine for the treatment of diarrhea caused by water and soil adaptation, not to mention that tea is an authentic domestic product, but it was the British who first discovered this mystery.
So, these guys did everything possible to steal Chinese tea seeds and try them out in various places, and when the trial was successful, they boasted that they had "conquered the whole world with a teacup in one hand and a musket in the other."
Considering that the price of tea is not cheap for Zhao Er, Li Anran also deliberately called the two little ones of the dog egg and the Zhao family to his side.
took out a kind of artemisia that he had just found near the courtyard of Zhao Er's house, and asked the three small ones to get more while they hadn't eaten yet, and specially told them to dig up the roots together.
Digging Artemisia annua to boil it is the same principle as boiling tea, which is to boil out the tannins. Mixed with some millet to cook into grass porridge, it is also effective for symptoms such as intestinal fetish.
This method is much cheaper than garlic old wine soup and tea soup, anyway, this artemisia is everywhere, even if the effect is a little slower, it is very suitable for the common people of the Tang Dynasty.
I don't know if it's luck, or because the cow's intestinal fetish is not too serious, after a pot of garlic old wine soup was poured down, the cow quickly settled down.
When they were pouring garlic old wine soup before, Zhao Da and Zhao Er were busy all the time. No way, this thing is not a dish for ploughing cows, and if you want it to drink, you can only use it strongly.
Seeing that the cow was much more stable than before, Zhao Er and Zhao Da suddenly felt a little more stable in their hearts, and immediately led the cow to the cowshed in the backyard.
Don't look at Zhao Er's family, there are no cattle, but the cowshed has been built a long time ago. When you need to borrow cattle from others, you can keep them at home and take care of them carefully, so as not to get out of the pool.
"Brother, do you think this cow can be cured?"
"Brother, the Taoist chief said that if it can be cured, it will definitely be cured."
"Alas...... If you really can't cure it, I admit it, greed hurts people. ”
Seeing that his brother still couldn't listen to his words, Zhao Eryou wanted to speak, but he could only keep his mouth shut when he thought of someone's instructions when he was in the mountains before.
After the cattle were placed, the Zhao brothers hurriedly rushed to the front yard to salute. Li Anran, who had been guarding against this hand for a long time, directly pulled it up one by one.
"It will take at least two or three days for this cow to be completely cured. I will teach you both how to cure this disease, and you will not be so sad when you encounter it again in the future. ”
"Huh? Road...... Dao Chief, you want to give us this method? ”
"Yes, in fact, I can't teach, didn't you all see all of this just now, except for some small places, I believe you should all know."
"I didn't see it!"
"I didn't see it either!!"
……
For Li Anran, these two methods of treating intestinal fetishism are nothing in the future generations. But I never expected that it would be a big deal right now.
In the eyes of Zhao Er and Zhao Da, if they can learn this method of treating cattle, they can not only treat their own cattle, but also treat the cattle of others.
If you really want to talk about it, although the method of treating intestinal fetishism is simpler, it is still a craft, and it is also a good craft that is not afraid of not making money.
At the current price of cattle in this year, a strong cow can be sold for 30 yuan, and if there is really any cow with intestinal fetish, it will definitely be willing to spend some price to cure the cow.
When the time comes, don't do much, every time you cure a cow, you will receive one or two, or even higher, I believe that some people will be willing, after all, the value of live cattle is much higher than that of dead cattle.
Originally, Li Anran didn't quite understand why he wanted to teach the method of cattle control, and the brother of the Zhao family in front of him would be so excited about his reaction.
After listening to Zhao Er's explanation, he realized that he had unintentionally sent a way to make money. However, I still didn't take it to heart.
Although this crossing is quite sudden, it is not at all like those protagonists of the time-traveling novels, who either carry corn and potatoes or know how to make glass and steel.
But for Li Anran, he has followed the old man Li Guizhen for so many years, in addition to doing things, he still has a lot of ability to make himself worry about food and clothing.
Even if he didn't bring his own medical box with him this time, with the medical knowledge he learned with the old man Li Guizhen when he was a child, not to mention treating diseases and saving people, it is still no problem to make some Chinese patent medicine.
In addition, his own family has always been operating a business of self-brewed local liquor, white wine, rice wine, rice wine, sake, and the wine made by Li Anran himself, which has a lot of fame in Shili Eight Townships.
As for the start-up capital, it is not a problem, even if there is no preparation at all for this crossing, the three-foot Qingfeng, which is specially used to do things, can still be exchanged for two dollars.
At the beginning, Li Anran smashed nearly 2,000 yuan for this sword, whether it was the equipment or the material of the sword body, it was all leveraged, and in the current era, it was a proper weapon
Coupled with the side three-wheeler, and those guys who do things in the sidecar, they can continue to engage in the Taoist profession at the least.
Seeing that the reaction of the Zhao family brothers was very excited, Li Anran hurriedly comforted: "Okay, okay, meeting is fate." What's more, Zhao Er is still kind to me, it's just two earthworks, it's nothing. ”
After persuading for a few sentences, it was useless, and Li Anran could only put his face on the back, and finally let the brothers Zhao Da and Zhao Er stop.
In the following teaching, one spoke carefully, the other listened carefully, and after a while, the garlic old wine soup, tea soup and grass porridge were taught.
Just like Li Anran said, it's just three simple earthworks, nothing rare at all, if it weren't for the fact that it took some effort to explain the language, it would have been faster to learn.
After Mrs. Zhao and her eldest daughter joined in the kitchen, they will prepare dinner after teaching the method of treating cattle.
Compared with adults, the little ones who are still at an innocent age have long been hooked by the strong aroma of food in the air, and they don't know how much saliva they swallowed.
After inspecting the cattle in the backyard and finding that they had begun to be able to eat, and they no longer leaked as soon as they ate like before, the look on Zhao Da's face suddenly looked much better.
Li Anran, who really couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the Zhao brothers, could only sit at the top of the table with a shelf. On the table, there is a table with large bowls and plates.
The previous rice wine just didn't run out, so Li Anran and the three old men had an extra bowl of wine in front of them that they were usually reluctant to drink.
The difference is that Li Anran's bowl is full, while the bowl in front of Zhao Da and Zhao Er is only a small half.
But for such an obvious difference, including the mother-in-law of the two brothers of the Zhao family, no one has an opinion.
It's just that Li Anran is a little speechless, in the current era, there is still a custom of mother-in-law and children not serving the table.
The entire dinner table was just himself and the Zhao family brothers, as for the two mothers-in-law and a group of children, they could only eat in the kitchen.
Glancing at the dishes on the table, Li Anran knew that most of the meat was placed here, and if he didn't look carefully, he wouldn't be able to find any traces of separation.
Faced with such a situation, Li Anran, who was hungry in his belly, sighed secretly, didn't say anything, picked up the wine bowl and beckoned the Zhao brothers to eat.
