In the afternoon, the weather was clear, but the dazzling sun did not bring a little warmth.

There is a thermometer in the place of exchange, and at this moment, outside the sun is not directly illuminated, showing minus 29 degrees, and there is an error, the four thermometers are as low as minus 30 degrees, and the high is minus 27 degrees.

These temperatures are suitable for working for half a day, or for not stopping at all times, standing outside for a long time, and not being able to withstand the cold.

The Jurchens were going to stay today, and they couldn't just stay in their rooms in the afternoon, they helped dig ice in exchange for dinner and lodging.

The road does not need to be repaired, the snow road is suitable for walking, there is ash and slag, but it will be saved and used to burn bricks, and the Jurchens exchange things for bricks and take them back to the fire kang.

The locals are always working, they have nothing to do in the winter, they just do their jobs, change things.

Some people have been here since more than 100 years ago, and it turns out that they are also Jurchens, and some of them are Mongols from the Yuan Dynasty, plus the locals and migrants who have always multiplied here.

For example, there are Koreans now, but there are very few of them, some of them have been caught by hard work, and some have fled the disaster.

At present, there are no people from Henan, Shandong and other places who come to Guandong, because there is no Shanhaiguan, the east of Shanhaiguan is Kanto, also called Guanwai, and the west is naturally Guanxi and Guanli.

As soon as the people of the Northeast say the place, they ask you where you are? The other party replied, Guanli.

In the 14th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang built the pass in Shanhaiguan, which was connected to the Great Wall.

However, that Beijing refers to the Beijing of the Qing Dynasty, the one outside the gate is called Shengjing, and there is the Forbidden City in Shenyang, and the Beijing in the Guanli.

Zhu Wentian didn't know whether to build the Shanhaiguan or not, the Ming Dynasty did not need to continue to build the Great Wall and passes, and the Ming army could easily defeat any enemy.

If you have the manpower and material resources to build the Great Wall and passes, it is better to use them to build roads.

The locals don't know about the planning of the Ming Dynasty, they only know how to work, and this year they planted rice according to the guidance of officials, and left the seeds after harvesting, and sent the rest to Nanjing.

The yield of rice is low, but it is delicious, and it is twice as much as they grow wheat with wheat in exchange for them, who stipulates that steamed buns cannot be eaten?

Now they work, exchange money, give copper money, they use copper money to buy things, they don't need to buy medicinal materials, there is a Huimin pharmacy here, free of charge, including a nursing home.

Daming needs to win the hearts of the locals and help resist the Haixi Jurchens.

They were able to buy cheap dried oysters, dried rainbows, that is, mussels, plus small crabs, sea rice, shrimp skins, shrimp ......

The kind of small crab on the seashore that is several centimeters big is called Chinese mitten crab, which is fried and eaten, or put in when boiling soup, and there is no meat.

Then give them a copper hot pot, burn charcoal, the kind with a small chimney and lid, which is the Northeast hot pot.

In this way, when they eat hot pot, they put in a handful of dried seafood, including seaweed, and borrow an umami to make sauerkraut and frozen tofu.

As for meat, the pigs they just raised have not yet grown up, and they will wait to breed piglets next year before they can pick and eat.

The army went out hunting and came back with meat, and they paid for it, and the price was not high.

"Liu Chaoguan, I see that there are leeks in the greenhouse, can you wrap some leek-filled dumplings? I'll take it tomorrow, what do you want? ”

Uerdo sent his men to help with the work, and he stayed with Liu Wenyi, and when he came out, some people in the village wanted to eat dumplings.

They don't know how to make dumplings themselves, and since there was a mutual market here, dumplings, buns, boxes and other foods have been passed down.

Ordinary people can't believe that the Jurchens guard the black soil of the northeast, and actually grow barley and eat fried rice and fried noodles every day.

Perhaps when they hunt, they can always get fishy prey meat to eat, so they prefer to eat dumplings and buns stuffed with leeks.

Liu Wenyan looked at the work of the people brought by Wuerduo: "How much?" ”

"Such a big hundred, I brought four badgers, can I?"

As a leader, he needs to make people feel like he can be relied on, and if someone wants to eat leek dumplings, he is willing to pay the price.

He thinks that exchanging four badgers for a hundred dumplings belongs to him, and in addition to the greenhouse, where are the fresh leeks in the current season?

"I'll ask someone to give you a bag." Liu Wenyi nodded.

He turned and went elsewhere to find the woman, who helped to take care of the greenhouse, which contained beehives.

"The fifth daughter-in-law, borrow me a piece of fat for a while, use steamed buns, they hunt and exchange things, buy some meat and soak it in cold water to remove the fishy shame, and wrap it with sauerkraut."

When Liu Wenyi came over, he heard someone talking, borrowing fertilizer, that is, flour fat, there is no yeast when the dough is raised, and it is all put for a long time to make good noodles.

The finished noodles are left in one piece, and the yeast is brought in itself, and the next time the noodles are put in, the noodles will be made quickly.

If you haven't eaten noodles at home for a while, and the yeast is bad, you have to borrow it from others if you eat it again, and you don't have to pay it back.

When someone else doesn't have it, come to borrow it, and if you have it at your own home, you will give half to the other party, and if you don't want to send it again recently, you will give it all to the other party.

"Cheng, auntie, I saw a roe deer, cut a piece of oil down, go back to boil meat oil and use the remaining oil residue to make dumplings with sauerkraut."

The fifth daughter-in-law happily agreed, talking about what she wanted to buy.

The life of their family is much better than that of ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty, and they belong to the building near the water.

They work to make money, they can buy cheap things when they are in the market, and as long as they are not lazy all year round, there is always an endless way to make money.

Who would dare ordinary people to say that they would make a meat bun and a dumpling?

"Wrap 200 dumplings stuffed with leeks, eggs and shrimp, and get them yourself, ten cents."

Liu Wenyi stood outside the greenhouse and shouted, if he didn't go in, it was not a matter of male and female defense, he was afraid of being stung by bees.

"Yanzi, take over this job, I'll give you a handle and noodles, and when the child in your belly comes out, just use the money you saved to eat a good supplement."

Someone in the greenhouse directly arranged things to one person, ten cents, and 200 dumplings with noodles and filling, which is a good job.

gave a little daughter-in-law who had just become pregnant and didn't rob it, and the new daughter-in-law entered the door and was pregnant with a child, so she couldn't bully people, she had to let it.

"Hey, thank you Sanniang." The voice sounded again, apparently swallow's.

After a short time, two people came out to receive noodles and other things, and first reconciled the noodles, so that if there were 200 pieces, 300 pieces would be packed.

The extra 100 were distributed by Liu Wenyi, and he ate it himself, or asked others to eat it together, and it was the public account.

Liu Wenyi means this, he needs to reap benefits for his subordinates, he doesn't care about himself, his father is Liu Ren, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

Others don't have a backstage, and they want to eat something good, so they can only rely on him to do it, and the dumplings don't say how big they are, when they enter the account, they put in two hundred, but the ingredients used are three hundred dumplings that are so big.

The only one who suffers is the person who takes the wallet dumplings, but the people are willing, and the three hundred dumplings are very fast, and the ten cents are in hand, and everyone is happy.
