Chapter 128: Chickens Lay Eggs, Eggs Lay Chickens

This matter can not blame Xie Bao, he didn't know that this method of raising chickens is unique, and thought that Guanzhong used maggots to raise chickens is a tradition, and he is a person who can't be disgusted, when I was injured in my family, I was very happy about raising chickens with maggots, and often went to the yard to help with chickens, we didn't take him as an outsider, so naturally I didn't deliberately guard against it, and the method was simple, and the technical content was low, and anyone could learn it in a day or two.

The vast majority of people, more or less sympathetic. The disaster around the Yun family, a big girl who has not been out of the cabinet has no long skills, no experience in the world, before the fire, she was still a pampered eldest lady in the boudoir, she opened her mouth for food, and lived in a honey pot with her clothes stretched out; After only one night of catastrophe, he had to take his two younger brothers, who were less than ten years old, to live and support the debt-ridden family business alone. Not to mention the enthusiastic Xie Bao, even if I am the number, I can't help but sympathize, and a little help is inevitable.

As for this person, there may be many people who don't worry about themselves and are resigned to their fate in the world. But there are two young brothers at the bottom, it's a different matter, at the moment of life and death, it is instinct to put everyone on it. My earliest idea of raising chickens was the product of chatting with Lanling and Lanling, and I didn't have the intention of avoiding people.

At the beginning, I couldn't control the weight, there were fewer chickens and more maggots, in order to avoid wasting a few maggots in Zhuangzi, Ying hadn't intervened at that time, I personally asked, as long as I had a heart, I could ask a little bit about the reason. The Yun family girl saved this thought, and it was normal to learn a fur and go back, if it weren't for Ying Zhong's seizure of power and cutting off the source of technology, the Yun family is estimated to be mass-produced now.

Yun girl's idea is good, and if she is on the scale, she will have a chance to turn over. According to Ying, the price of an egg has risen to two yuan, and if you raise three or four hundred chickens and collect two or three hundred eggs a day, it is not a small income. On this day, the price of heat can't get up. It's even more powerful in the autumn and winter, but it's still a drop in the bucket to repay foreign debts by relying on this, and the debts are not to be repaid by raising chickens, but it can just take a breath of relief.

After a long circle, when they got home, Ying and the second daughter had already returned, and the two of them were watching the big cannibal hand play together. Three crystal clear green shot glasses, ugly from the style alone. The mouth is not very round, and the bottom of the cup is thin and uneven, and it is of inferior quality. It's too far from the agate cup that Lanling gave me, and I don't know what the use of spending this unjust money is.

"Isn't it pretty?" Ying saw that I took the cup and looked at it, and said with a happy face: "Today, the princess specially called the tricksters to Xiyuan, those mustaches are really interesting." Before leaving, they gave the princess's cup, and the princess passed it on to the concubine. I can see the other side translucently. ”

"Good looking. Pretty. "I didn't spend any money on rotten goods, so I put the rotten glass on the table casually, and I was amused. Lanling has some exquisite glassware, of course, I can't look down on this stall, Ying thought it was cheap. Earlier, I thought that there was no glass in the Tang Dynasty. I first saw the glass wine glass at Mr. Cheng's house, although the translucent texture was far from being comparable to that of later generations, and I was still excited for a while, and then Cui Zhang used a glass wine jug when he was entertained. The glassware when Lanling invited us to dinner was already unusual. The Wang family has only recovered, and they are not yet extravagant enough to buy glass utensils, and they can understand Ying's feelings, "If you want, I'll go and say hello to Cheng Chu, there are several caravans under his hands to transport some good ones from outside the territory to use." ”

"There's no rush. Let's look at the meaning first, the family will not have this ability, and we will talk about it in a few days. It's just a thing. Ying played a few times and pushed the glass to the second daughter, "Take it to play, I'll give it to you." ”

"I can't say anything about this thing. As for the sand burned out of the ground, as for how it was burned. I was a little impressed. Forget now. He took the towel handed by the maid and wiped his face, which was comfortable. Glass is easy to say. It's a big knowledge to do, and it's not just a matter of understanding the molecular structure that you can burn out. In this era, the conditions are limited, and the process is cumbersome, and I am too lazy to think about it. If Byzantium is knocked down, then there are glass craftsmen, but it is too far away, and there are many countries in between, so it is more difficult.

"That's not necessarily a pity, forget it." Ying saw me pondering, and gently pushed it, "Don't bother if you can't think of it, it's a good thing to forget this thing, even if it will, our family won't do it." Today, I heard the princess say, this glass, the beard has destroyed the country for this, it's all about money. If our family wants to get it out, we don't know how much right and wrong it will lead to come out, and it will be difficult to live a peaceful life. ”

"Well, this is true," I nodded, this glass is a right and wrong, who will do who is unlucky, Ying is talking about living a serious life. "Speaking of which, you should put a kang out of the yard where you raise chickens, as soon as the weather is cold, maggots will grow slowly, and maggots won't even grow in winter."

"Tomorrow the concubine will go to find someone to get it, it's a serious matter, don't delay." Ying got up and instructed his subordinates to prepare dinner, "It's a hot day, and the eggs are not long outside, and they are still bad in the cellar, and our family can't wipe their faces to shout and sell eggs. Hehe......"

"I want to find a way, and I have to sell eggs to others," inspired by the cranky idea of burning glass, he immediately had a plan. When I was a child, my family was not rich, in order to save some expenses, often a few families pooled money to partner to the chicken farm wholesale eggs back, at that time there was no refrigerator, just get some lime water, brush each egg with a brush, the eggshell on the invisible air eye blocked, can be put for two or three months not bad. When I was young, I liked to come together to help adults, and I was very happy to brush it. This method is still used in many rural areas. Burning lime is simple, when I was a child, I often saw the farmer's house burning on the Weihe beach, without any limestone and the like, on the pebbles on the river beach, and the fire kiln was burned for a day and then crushed to be raw ash. There is a river behind Zhuangzi, and there are many pebbles, and the scrapped kiln of Houzhuang to burn coarse porcelain (semi-porcelain, pottery) is completed, and it does not cost a few dollars. "Tomorrow will be done, little thing."

"It's really anything," Ying hugged the second daughter over, and said with a smile: "This husband is only worried about marrying, and the concubine and the second daughter only follow Xiangfu, and they don't have to worry about the place anymore." ”

"Isn't that right? Burn the incense and wait for the blessings. Proudly patted the second girl's little face, "I was addicted to eating yellow eels a while ago, and if I didn't eat it for a few days, I would get slandered, and I would go fishing when I was free." ”

"Just eat the husband, but the concubine doesn't dare to move the chopsticks, and she is afraid when she looks at it." Ying Dong looked around, his face sank, "The fourth brother doesn't know where he died." Second daughter, did you just see her? ”

The second daughter shook her head, suddenly remembered something, and pointed in the direction of the back house.

Not good! My crickets! jumped up and ran to the back house. It's late, it's late, the fourth put all the crickets in a big basin to play melee, and it seems that it will be done...... Oh, my God! They're all famous generals. It's just a waste of this, I don't want to live anymore. What exactly is being done wrong? God, open your eyes and send this little aunt back, if I can, I'd rather not eat eggs for the rest of my life.

"I don't eat eggs in the first place, what are you muttering?" The fourth child thought that I had ruined her interest, so she took the pot and poured all the crickets into the flower pond, "It's all over the world." Catch it again, brother-in-law is stingy. ”

……

The geography of the world is not clear to the fourth child, and finally understands why the old man has not taken the fourth child back for a long time, and he is idle and worry-free. And he gave birth to a wife, and I will marry one. I have to raise one for him, who did I offend? Who has my cricket offended? I can't say this yet, and I don't want to take the fourth child away.

"Why are you still bitter? Didn't get the message? I can't send troops this year, so don't worry about it. "Lanling came to see me early in the morning, and I wasn't a little angry. Reassuring: "It's still lifeless." There are so many things that can be done in a year, what are you worried about? ”

"No, it has nothing to do with that. Worried about the country and the people...... "It can't be said that it's for the crickets to feel uncomfortable." Facing a pile of empty flower pots in the morning, the mood is hard to describe.

"You?" Lan Ling pointed at me and laughed, "Don't make people laugh, don't expect me Lang Jun to have such ambitions, I'm afraid that I will be lazy again." Don't you want to move? ”

"Hey, I'm lazy now," Lanling is good at this, and knows what kind of people use what methods to persuade. Stretched, "Follow me to burn stones today, it's useful, high-end goods." ”

Ying has already prepared the manpower for me, the first time. I don't plan to burn more. He followed six strong laborers to the river beach to look for stones. Don't be too big, it's not good to burn through. Spending firepower, I first found some fist-sized tests to burn the ground faster.

I don't know how long it will take, but I guess it will take six hours. Ordered his subordinates to keep watch, pinch it out of the kiln for three hours, let it cool, and not see water, and pull it back.

When I came back, I asked someone to set up a firewood pot in the yard, grabbed a few handfuls of tea salt and threw them in to boil, Ying and Lanling looked fresh, and I don't know what kind of essence I want to become. When I got up early to pick up pebbles, I remembered the original way to make eggs at home, since the toss opened, I had a complete brain, and the tragic fate of the crickets aroused my fighting spirit.

"Eggs should be fresh, they must be fresh, and old eggs can't be used." I taught Ying to choose one by one, Lanling was interesting to watch, and I joined in the fun. "Stir the wheat husk, sawdust, and wheat stalk evenly, and let the next person burn some grass and wood ashes to come out." In this era, there is no alkaline surface, and plant ash can be used as a substitute.

The burned stone is pulled back, smashed into it, no need to grind it into powder, and the plant ash is mixed into a paste into a pot, the selected eggs are pasted with mortar in the pot and then dipped in a layer of wheat husk, sawdust, and wheat stalk stirring on the outside, put a few drops of wine in the jar, seal the mouth of the altar with mud, and it is done.

As for brushing eggs with dilute lime water to keep them fresh, Ying gave the maids a few broken brushes, and all the eggs in the cellar were moved out and brushed, so they were not afraid of being broken. Seeing that the eggs were processed, he turned his head to Ying and said, "The rest of the ash is mixed with water, let them use this to paint the wall of the chicken yard, maybe it will be beneficial." ”

"Don't say it, or I'm going to die." Seeing that Lanling looked at it for a day, all the trade secrets were leaked, "You have to keep your mouth shut." ”

"Go!" Lanling glanced at me, "I don't know what tricks you play after a day, and I'm not willing to say it, I'm afraid that others will listen to the joke." ”

"Hehe, you'll understand in six days, I can't explain it to you now." Silly girl, the princess who has never eaten the egg is not a good princess, "This lime is a good thing, this lime powder is added with clay and slag sand and the foundation is much stronger than usual, and it is not easy to collapse when you see water, and the wall is brushed with a layer that can prevent moisture and insects, and it looks good in white, isn't it?" ”

"Well, that can't be helped. If you can't pull it out in your eyes, I will say it everywhere if you just kill your mouth. "Lanling has no taboo about these, as long as she thinks it is useful and can improve the lives of the people, she will promote it." The thief's mind, if you get this out, you have to cheat money? Your family has a lot of money, so I will buy your land in this way. Tell me the price and come out to negotiate. ”

"You buy a recipe for burning lime?" Seeing that Lan Ling said seriously, he said with a smile: "I knew that you had such an idea, so I took you to see it." I won't sell it secretly if I want to make money? When I am somebody. You keep the eggs secret, the lime is for everyone to use, and you can tell whoever you like. ”

"That's what it sounds like. It just so happens that my Zhuangzi is going to repair the house, so I'll let people try it in this way. He got up and said goodbye, "It's still early, go back and make arrangements." I forgot to give you an account. The coal kiln over there in Tongguan has been excavated, and the Ministry of Industry will personally supervise it, and it will be able to be transported to the capital in two months. ”

"Is it good for me?"

"No, why do you keep thinking about the benefits. It's all reported with your name, isn't it good to leave a good name? ”

"It's up to you, but I'll have to pull a few carts for my family in winter."

On the evening of the fifth day, he opened the jar in which the eggs were sealed, and peeled one out with his own hands. Not bad. It was very beautiful, the egg white was clear with a hint of goldenness, and handed it to Ying, "Isn't it good-looking?" ”

"Well, it's the first time I've seen an egg look like this. Agate in general. Just look at the ground? Ying lifted it up, borrowed the light, and looked at it over and over again.

"Silly eldest sister," I found a silk thread to strangle the egg into four petals, I don't eat this much, I always think it tastes weird. "Taste it and see if it suits your taste."

"It's delicious," Ying ate the four petals in one go, chewing quickly, "It's a good thing, especially this egg yolk with oil and gas, it's much better than usual." ”

"That's good, the second daughter and the fourth child will come back in a while to taste something fresh. If you take out this thing, it's ten times the price of an egg, but isn't it more cost-effective than raising chickens? I poured out all the behemoths in the jar and arranged them neatly," Didn't you call out the family's recent money to stop? Selling eggs can't wipe your face, so in the future, according to this method, we will do it at home, so that your family can sell it. The calculation is also a big entry. ”

Ying bowed her head and counted it. Shaking his head, "It's okay to start with." If it really becomes a business, the chickens at home will not have the ability to lay so many eggs. I have to collect some money from all over the place. As he spoke, he picked up another one, carefully smashing the mud on it, revealing the eggshell that had been cleared, "Also, whether it's giving it away or exchanging money, you can't take the mud shells out of the bread floor, you have to clean it." The princess will spread the method of burning lime in the future, and once someone sees through the mortar outside, the filling will be exposed, and she will be busy in vain. ”

Ying is really shrewd, she even thought of this, amazing. "Yes, as you say. Tomorrow, we will save a few more jars, and I will send them from door to door under the banner of your mother's house, those people are used to eating mouths, and a little publicity can coax the business up. And the toilet water begins with a truth. ”

"Well, it's hard to get to the top of this. It's easy for the husband to make this, but it's different from the toilet water, where are so many eggs to make? At that time, it was easy to raise chickens and eat eggs at home, but when it came to making a profit, it was difficult. Ying made a difficulty, kept taking the egg in her hand and unconsciously peeled it up, "It's good to say that it's hot today, and it's reluctant to harvest some a day, but in the cold day, chickens don't like to breed eggs, where are thousands to find?" This business is most afraid of running out of stock, and it will offend old customers when it is out of stock. ”

"It's going to have to be totaled." Ying is worried, there is no large-scale breeding base in these years, and the eggs are purchased from the villagers and tenants one by one. "Wait for the fourth and second daughters to come back and find a way, both of them have good brains, maybe they are better than the two of us."

The second daughter and the fourth child surrounded the eggs and ate Huanshi, especially the fourth, who was knocked on the dinner table by Ying I don't know how many chopsticks, it had no effect, and the smoke of eating was still filled.

"It's a new way to eat it from my brother-in-law, right?" The fourth child was still unsatisfied, and was about to peel another one, but Ying Zhao slapped his hand before he stopped, "Don't eat it." ”

"A beautiful girl's house, there is no food like eating," Ying said angrily, and pointed at the door of her head, "When you are full, you are moving your mind, is there any place to do this egg business?" Second daughter, you are also thinking about it, and today you are still praised for your cleverness. ”

"Sister, it's okay to be smart, don't praise me for being beautiful," the fourth child is still measured by his appearance, and he is not narcissistic to the point of forgetting himself. "What else do you think, just like this, it's okay to top the price of 20 ordinary eggs. Didn't you see how the customers of the toilet water workshop spend money? Those who can use toilet water don't care about the price of an egg. Leave it to me, and the eggs all over the city will be made like this for him. Oh, you have to come up with a good name. ”

"The name is not in a hurry, the key is where did you get the eggs? Think about it before you speak. Ying knocked on the fourth child again, "No matter how many chickens we have, we can't get so many chickens, and we can't harvest outside, so we can't afford to spend time." It's not necessarily fresh, this one can only be made with fresh eggs, and if it is a little old, it will be gone. ”

How to do it? I can't think about it, Ying explained to me in the afternoon, she spoke at the dinner table, and my old man came in and lost face.

"Don't you have chickens at home? As long as it is spread out, it is not a matter of earning and robbing, so many farms and farms nearby, what is the difficulty? The fourth child rubbed the painful place that was beaten by Ying dissatisfied, "Stingyly, you can earn a lot of money by raising chickens, for fear that others will learn it, what if it is a flower water formula?" If I were to be replaced, I would only raise maggots, not chickens, and anyone who wanted to feed chickens with red and yellow eggs would have to come to me to buy chicken food. I don't even have to worry about chicken plague. ”

This girl, looking at the two forces and two strengths, is still the material for doing business, and she will get to the point in a few words. I actually plan to do so, but it's not good to say it in front of Ying, the fourth child has no scruples, and even has the idea of selling chicken feed.
