Jiao Dalang followed behind the chief to help, and the chief was reprimanded by Zhao Hanzhang, his face was a little unsightly, and he was even more unhappy with Jiao Dalang, the culprit.

He said with a cold face: "Why don't you boil water and stir noodles?" ”

The batter is a recent way to eat from the county, the ground wheat flour, wheat bran, soybean flour and water are stirred, and after the water boils, put it in one by one to cook, add a little salt, the taste is not bad.

Much better than cereal.

It's a pity that this is labor-intensive, not to mention anything else, most people are stumped by grinding flour alone, who is so free to grind wheat and beans into flour?

I only had these things to eat when I was working for the county government.

The steward in charge of the food repeatedly confirmed that it was an order from the county monarch before agreeing to take out the triple flour and stir it.

The boiled batter was poured into the bucket, and Jiao Dalang and the villagers carried two buckets over, and the aroma of food wafted over as they walked.

The people who were talking around Zhao Hanzhang smelled the smell, their stomachs gurgled, and they began to wander, looking at the ridges frequently, and they didn't listen to what Zhao Hanzhang said at all.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled slightly when he saw this, got up and said, "The batter seems to be ready, let's eat something first, have you brought dishes and chopsticks?" ”

"Bring, bringing." The villagers of Shangjiao Village immediately took out the dishes and chopsticks from the baggage they had brought with them.

This is something that must be brought when going out, Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan were still very unaccustomed to it at first, but they found that every time they went out, if they didn't bring their own rice bowls, then others could only endure hunger and give them their own rice bowls first.

Therefore, Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan also developed the habit of carrying dishes and chopsticks with them when they went out.

The local villagers were even more accustomed to it, they took out the dishes and chopsticks, and when they saw Jiao Dalang and them coming with steaming wooden barrels, they immediately greeted them.

Jiao Dalang was afraid that they would grab it and ruin his impression in front of Zhao Hanzhang when the time came, so he shouted from afar: "Line up, line up, no one is allowed to mess up." ”

Qian Jin barely came back to the cage rationally, and he didn't care about grabbing it, so he directly pulled the people who were squeezing forward and asked them to line up.

Zhao Hanzhang would never test human nature at such a time, so he glanced sideways at Qiu Wu and nodded slightly at him.

Qiu Wu immediately stepped forward with the guards and shouted: "Queue, queue up......"

Someone pushed people away and squeezed forward with their strong bodies, but they were dragged out and thrown to the ground by Qiu Wu, and kicked him, "What are you squeezing, don't you hear the queue, go to the back." ”

Qiu Wu frightened the villagers at this time, and they came back to their senses, barely overcoming the feeling of hunger, and looked at Zhao Hanzhang with a suspicious expression.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at it with a smile, nodded when he saw them coming, and said gently: "Don't worry, everyone has it, everyone line up and start again." ”

Some people were grateful to Dade and responded happily, but some people were sensitive, shivered, and lined up in the line with a pale face.

They felt that this Zhao girl was not as gentle as she seemed on the surface, didn't they see that she didn't frown at the guard's kicking and beating movements?

Qiu Wu directly made the team orderly, and no one dared to squeeze in front anymore

Jiao Dalang quietly breathed a sigh of relief, in the winter, he was sweating on his forehead.

When everyone lined up, he took a wooden spoon to serve batter for everyone, this thing was the first time the villagers of Shangjiao Village had seen it, but they didn't hesitate much, and immediately walked aside to eat it after it arrived.

As soon as they entered the mouth, they poured it into their stomachs, and when they finished eating, they came back to taste, they didn't chew much just now, it seemed to be very smooth, and there was a fragrance of noodles.

The villagers licked the clean bowl again, Jiao Dalang had already finished serving it, and when he saw the person who had eaten squatting on the ground licking the bowl, he quietly glanced at Zhao Hanzhang.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "If you haven't eaten enough, continue to line up to sheng, rest assured, we have food, but you have been hungry for a long time, you can't be too full, let's eat two bowls per person first." ”

When the villagers heard this, they immediately rushed forward, but this time they didn't dare to squeeze in, and honestly stood behind one by one.

With another bowl, they finally ate a little slower and tasted the batter.

The young boy's eyes lit up, "This is the best thing I've ever eaten." ”

The older one had tears in his eyes, "I've never eaten anything so delicious, it's called batter?" Is it made of white flour? ”

But the color of this batter is not so white.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "This is Sanhe flour, in addition to flour, there are also some wheat bran and soybean flour. ”

Zhao Hanzhang asked, "Do you still have beans at home?" ”

"Yes, in addition to wheat porridge, we also eat some bean porridge occasionally."

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and said: "Bean porridge is not delicious, grinding into flour can be made into bean cakes, or it can be made into steamed bread with wheat flour, in addition to staple food, it can also be cooked, anyway, it is very useful, how many acres of beans do you plan to plant next year?" ”

"It's basically planted on dry land."

Zhao Hanzhang asked, "How many acres of land does the family have, and how many people do you have?" ”

Hearing that they want to work here for the whole winter and wait for the spring of next year to go back to farming, Zhao Hanzhang expressed his approval, "We still have to farm, otherwise where will the food come from?" ”

She asked, "Is it easy for you to water over there?" ”

"It's not good, it's almost the same as Xiajiao Village, it's just a small river, it's either flooded or drought every year, and life is not good."

"That's right, that's why I'm going to build a canal in Xiajiao Village to dredge the river, so that they can no longer flood their fields when it rains a lot in the coming year, and they can water it when the rain is low, so they can save some effort."

The villagers of Shangjiao Village are envious, and they can't wait to become Xiajiao villagers.

Why isn't their county gentleman a Zhao girl?

Zhao Hanzhang touched the bottom and called the chief, "How many vacant houses are there in the village?" ”

The chief looked confused, "Huh? ”

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let them live in a vacant house temporarily, I will ask someone to send some bedding, and from today onwards, they will work together with the people of Xiajiao Village." ”

The lieutenant whispered: "County gentleman, although the canal is not easy to dig, the people of our village will dig for another month. ”

Zhao Hanzhang glanced at him and said: "They are going to dredge the river, you had better be faster, if someone is lazy, I will not spare it." ”

Zhao Hanzhang asked the lieutenant chief to take someone to arrange for the people of Shangjiao Village to live, and then called Jiao Dalang, "In your area, apart from your lieutenant chief, who else has more prestige?" ”

Jiao Dalang was stunned for a moment and said, "Uncle Chen, he is kind, everyone is willing to listen to him." ”

"Also surnamed Chen?" Zhao Hanzhang asked: "What is the relationship between him and Li Chang?" ”

"He's the lieutenant's cousin."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let him come to see me." ”

Jiao Dalang was puzzled, but he still answered and ran to find Chen Fang.

Chen Fang was a middle-aged man, his face was a little sad, Zhao Hanzhang looked at his hand, saw that his hand was thick, his fingers were a little bursting, and the black that could be seen in the cracks, his face eased down, and asked with a smile: "Your name is Chen Fang?" ”

Chen Fang bowed his head apprehensively and replied, "Yes, little Chen Fang." ”
