Chapter 102: The Decisive Zhu County Order
We stood at the foot of the mountain.
The natural mountains are as steep as a knife and axe, and all the exposed stones are covered with a layer of fine patterns.
The sand under his feet was blown up by the wind and hit his face, causing him a pain.
Not far away, the river is tumbling and winding.
This picture is simply magnificent, and in modern times, it is definitely a tourist attraction.
However, we are not here for sightseeing, and the topography of the environment is indeed prohibitive for survival.
And the people of Lan County are working hard in this kind of natural crack.
Very good, since we rely on the mountain, then we will eat the mountain, and if we rely on the water, we will eat the water.
We started to observe all the way.
In many places, there are gentle slopes that can be built and planted.
I wrote it down in a notebook.
Keep going.
Suddenly, I saw a sandy area like a river that stretched as far as the eye could see.
We got out of the car and went to a nearby farmhouse.
Ask about the situation.
What I inquired about was that this was originally the course of the Turbid River, but due to flooding a hundred years ago, the river was diverted, and only sandy land remained.
I came to the sandy soil and looked carefully into the distance, and occasionally there were some grasses growing in a few places.
Pinched it up and looked at it, and it was 80 percent sandy.
He also brought a shovel for taking soil and asked Dongwang to shovel down.
After shoveling for a meter or so, there is a trace of moisture, which is not so dry.
After another day of traveling, I finally returned to the inn.
I started to study it with my notebook.
Brother Dong happily came in from outside and said, "Miss, look, what is this!"
I looked up and saw a carp in a casserole, and the soup had been stewed, uh, if it was yellow, it was milky white!"
"It's a fish, what's wrong?"
I turned the pot around and looked at it carefully.
"Miss, you don't know, because fish is more nutritious, so I wanted to make you a soup, but the guy in the inn actually said, there is no fish, there are few fish, I asked Dongwang to go out to look for it, but there is none, today at the gate of the city, I found a person carrying a live fish, asked him if he sold it, and he sold it to me."
I couldn't help but wonder, "Dongge, you said that the people in this county guard the Turbid River, how can there be no fish?"
"Who's to say it isn't!"
I felt fishy when I thought about the fish, but looking at Dongge's expectant look, I still served a bowl.
Well, don't say it, this fish soup doesn't have any fishy smell and is very delicious. ν.
You must know that if the carp is not treated, it will have a strong earthy smell, and if it is treated, it will lose the umami of the fish.
There is no seasoning in this soup, but the taste is very good.
I couldn't help but have another thought in my mind.
Just as Dong Ge was packing up her things and turning around, I noticed a large black patch in her ear.
I got up and wiped her with a handkerchief.
Dong Ge reacted and said with a smile: "Oops, I just made soup and got a hand of grass and wood ashes, and accidentally rubbed my face again, and when I washed my hands, I forgot to wash my face."
I also laughed and listened to her and it turned out suddenly. Something gave me a flash of inspiration.
I asked, "What do you say, Dongge?"
"I forgot to wash my face when I washed my hands."
I hurriedly asked, "The last sentence."
"I accidentally rubbed my face."
I shook my head, "Not that."
"Got a hand of plant ash."
I slapped my thigh suddenly, yes, it's grass ash, universal ash!
I remember when I was a child, the water in my well was full of yellow rust, and my mother used the sifted plant ash and water to precipitate in the tank.
The precipitated water is slightly yellowish, but rust-free, and can be used for cooking and laundry.
Grass ash can also be used to kill bacteria and stop bleeding.
Dongge looked at my actions, inexplicable.
I called her over and told her how to do it.
Dong Ge nodded with a strange expression, and then came to the back kitchen.
Scoop out the ashes and sift them through.
Looking at the black gray, Dongge couldn't help but wonder, can this work?
No matter, listen to Miss's affirmation.
So, a dustpan of grass and wood ash was buckled in the oversized water tank.
The guy in the store happened to come to fetch water, and he saw it.
"No, I said that you girl, you look quite marked, how can you do things that harm people, can you ask for this water, you have to wash the tank."
Dongge directly stuffed him with half a piece of broken silver.
"Oh, girl, is this one tank enough? The ones on the side can also be used, and also, can this ash still be used, I can help you dry it!"
This change of face is too fast.
Dong Ge said, "Don't move this tank of water, don't pour it.
"Got it, girl."
After Dongge left, the guy couldn't help but envy, "Hey, this rich man is really good at playing."
Since I didn't sleep well yesterday and was tired today, I lay down early.
Before going to bed, I touched my flat belly and couldn't help but wonder what Papaya's expression would be if he knew that there was his child here.
And Lu Zeming, who was thousands of miles away, was lying on the clay kang he taught others to make in the icy house at this time, deeply missing the inventor of the clay kang, that is, his own wife.
In the morning, Dongge got up early.
Thinking of the young lady instructing herself to make porridge and pasta with grass and wood ash water today, she took a deep breath and opened the cylinder head.
Well? It's not as black as you imagined, it's not the usual muddy yellow, it's very clear, slightly yellowish.
This gave Dongge a lot of courage.
She began to make breakfast.
An hour later.
Dong Ge looked at the sticky rice porridge, the fragrant big steamed buns, and even the small buns were chubby.
Dongge thought about it, but didn't dare to serve it directly to the young lady, but called Dongwang.
Dongge stuffed a steamed bun into Dongwang's hand: "Oh, give it to you."
Dongwang couldn't help but smile shyly: "This, it's not good, Miss hasn't eaten it yet."
"If you give it to eat, you'll eat it, verbose."
"Hmm."
Dongwang took the steamed bun and thought while eating, or Dongge felt sorry for him.
Don't say it, today's steamed buns are delicious!
"The craftsmanship has improved, and the steamed buns are delicious."
Hearing Dongwang say this, Dongge snatched the steamed bun in his hand, pinched a small piece, and put it in his mouth to taste it.
It's delicious.
He stuffed the steamed bun into Dongwang's hand again.
She also ate a steamed bun with herself, Dongwang squirmed and laughed.
Dongge feels that Dongwang is a little abnormal today.
After eating, Dongge observed Dongwang for a while and asked, "How is it?" Does it hurt to have a stomach? Does my stomach hurt? There's nothing uncomfortable about it."
Dongwang felt that his world was full of pink bubbles, and responded softly: "I'm fine, I'm comfortable everywhere, don't worry."
Dongge exhaled, very good, food safe.
So, I went to find the young lady with food.
Dongge entered the door, and I looked at the porridge in her hand, and I knew that the grass and wood gray water was used.
I ate it.
Ah, the taste of childhood.
I don't usually have much appetite, but I ate more this morning.
Dongge said happily, "Let's do this in the future."
I smiled and shook my head: "Eating like this, eating occasionally, can adjust the body's pH balance, but you can't eat it."
"Oh!"
Dongge nodded, following the young lady to understand a lot of knowledge.
After packing up, we went to find Zhu Xianling again.
Zhu Xianling originally thought that I would come in a few days, and it is possible that I will not come.
But when I came to him for only one day, he was a little dissatisfied, thinking that I was too impetuous, and he must have been ignorant again.
However, for the sake of our soup kitchen in Lan County, he still met me with a good temper.
"I've seen Lord Zhu."
I gave him a salute.
"Well, sit."
Zhu Xianling said two words, and then he was silent.
You can see that he doesn't trust me.
Yes, if it weren't for the knowledge and experience accumulated in Hua Nian, as well as the space against the sky, I wouldn't be so courageous!
"Ahem!"
I coughed, cleared my throat, and said, "Lord Zhu, no matter how much you don't trust me now, I still hope that you can listen carefully to what I say next."
Zhu Xianling raised his eyelids, well, it's okay, it's quite eye-catching.
So I said, "Lanxian is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and not every mountain is a steep cliff, but there are also four slopes, and the slopes have soil, although they contain sand, but the proportion of sand is much better than that of the ground."
Zhu Xianling was a little unhappy when he heard me say this, this is something that everyone in Lan County knows.
So he said, "So what, you can't plant wheat or corn, and if you plant it, you won't get any grain, and you're wasting seeds."
"Well, that's true, because it's thin, but Lord Zhu, have you ever thought about planting beans?"
Zhu Xianling was stunned, planting beans, what beans to plant? No one has ever planted it, and even many people don't know what beans are.
I took out soybeans, red beans, and mung beans from the homemade bag I was carrying.
These seeds are suitable for the requirements of this soil.
I continued, "See, my lord, these beans, growing every month, their advantage is that they have a root of about 20 centimeters, the kang is dry, and the plant is one meter high."
I took out the soybeans and continued, "This is a soybean, after the soybeans are sandwiched with raw beans, they can be picked and boiled and eaten, and when they are ripe, after the beans are beaten down, the bean seedlings can be used for firewood, this bean can be used to squeeze oil, and the remaining bean dregs can be fed to poultry, and can be used to make white and tender tofu, dried tofu, delicious soy milk, raw bean sprouts can be used for vegetables, and can be used to make soybean paste."
"Wait, according to you, this is full of treasures?"
I confidently replied, "That's nature."
Zhu Xianling asked again, "How much can be produced?"
"The yield per mu is 200 catties, which is a catty, but our land can only be conservatively said to be 200 catties."
Zhu Xian Ling stood up suddenly: "This little thing, two hundred catties."
I nodded.
"What about these red beans and mung beans?"
I couldn't help but laugh, he would draw inferences.
Yes, the yellow is the soybean, the red is the red bean, and the green is the mung bean.
"You can cook, make porridge, make pastries."
Zhu Xianling was a little excited, but he didn't quite believe that this was the truth.
He asked, "What are you trying to do with us in this way?"
I hesitated, "What? My dream was to let my seeds be sown all over the world, and if there is a plan, then I hope that everyone in the county will support the three princes."
Zhu County's order was clear, as he guessed.
I said directly, "One more thing."
"Miss Meng, please speak."
"I saw yesterday that there was a sandy area that had been changed to a river."
"yes, this sand bed at the bottom of the river has been around for many years, what? Can you use it, too? The sand content is too high, isn't it?"
Zhu Xianling thinks that it is a bit wishful thinking that things can be grown there.
"You can plant it, you can grow sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes like sandy land, the same monthly growth cycle, sweet potatoes can be eaten by the people, can be staple food, can be used in vegetables."
Zhu Xianling's heart swelled with huge waves.
He felt that this woman was not talking about it, and he had to seize this opportunity.
If it is really as she said, they have the largest area in Lan County, but they are all unusable hillsides, and the sand beds at the bottom of the river that no one cares about, if they can be planted, the people can be rich, and he can also raise his head in the family.
I saw that he hadn't moved for a long time, and I shouted, "Master Zhu!"
Didn't move.
"Lord Zhu!"
I went straight up a few decibels.
"Hmm!" Zhu Xianling reacted, a little embarrassed.
"Would you like two and a half small basins of warm water?"
Zhu County ordered to be brought by the subordinates.
In front of him, I washed the soybeans in a basin, then took them out and put them in warm water at the same temperature as a human body.
Subsequently, put it in a warmer place in the house.
"My lord, tomorrow morning, call someone to take them out, use a clean basin, spread a clean cotton cloth on the bottom, pour these beans on them, then cover them with a layer of cloth, water them twice a day, and the day after tomorrow, they can be used in the dishes."
Zhu Xianling asked, "In this way, you can eat it."
"Of course!"
Also, I took out the sweet potato from the bag and gave it to him: "This, cook it directly, and you can eat it directly when it is steamed."
After Zhu Xian's order was thanked, he hurriedly asked someone to take it away, as if he was afraid that I would ask for it back.
Then he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and took the initiative to mention: "Miss Meng, when do you think the land analysis and planting matters in that village can start?"
I didn't expect that this Zhu County Order didn't have too many problems, his attitude turned 180 degrees, and he was also a decisive person.
So he smiled and said, "Anytime."
"Okay, tomorrow!"
"Good!"
