Within a few days, the sugarcane seedlings Zheng Ruoying bought in Qingyuan County were gradually transported to Fengshan. The fleets of horse-drawn carriages were huge and impressive. Many people in Fengshan thought that there would be something big happening on the other side of Nanxi River in the near future. They all came to watch the action. As a result, everyone saw that more than 100 acres of dry land were all planted with sugar cane. In order to facilitate irrigation, a bucket was erected on the bank. Two farmers cooperated, one pulled the pole, and the other People carry buckets of water, although they can only carry a small bucket at a time, but they continue to collect water every day, and a large area of land is gradually irrigated.
The sugarcane is planted very regularly in the field. Although the land area is very vast, the sugarcane is not planted in every slot. Instead, it is planted in rows like seedlings in the rice fields. It is well-proportioned and pleasing to the eye.
The area of these sugarcane fields is too huge. Although some people in Fengshan have been growing sugarcane for a while, the demand for this stuff in Fengshan is not strong, so children are more greedy for this kind of stuff, and adults only Eat something like this once in a while.
Zheng Yiqian originally thought that his daughter was just having a little fun, but he didn't expect that she was serious. Looking at the more than a hundred acres of sugar cane seedlings all over the mountains and fields, he was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the ground. When so many sugar canes mature in the future, don't say Whether it's selling it or transporting it to other places, it's a big project. Alas, young people don't know the importance of it, so they take the wrong path all at once. He originally thought that this precious girl followed him around the shop a lot on weekdays. She should know a little bit about these business methods. Things are rare and expensive. If you have grown so much sugar cane, can the price be expensive?
Zheng Ruoying hadn't told him the real purpose of planting these sugar canes, so he was a little worried.
Liang Chuan didn't come to see these sugarcane seedlings much after that, because to be honest, you can just insert sugarcane into the ground casually. As long as there is water and sunshine, and you don't bother it, it will grow by itself when the season comes. Slim and elegant, he spends all his energy to serve these sugar canes, just hoping to increase the yield of sugar cane.
There are still many places in Guangxi where black cane is grown. Local farmers grow it purely to extract brown sugar from the soil. The quality of this brown sugar is very good, especially for postpartum women who are weak and cold after giving birth. , can play a very good health care role. Their sugarcane fields still maintain the wild stocking pattern that they have had for hundreds of years. However, even if they are not carefully taken care of, the sugarcane yield in a year is enough for them to make native brown sugar.
After more than ten days, the prototype of the house has come out, and these Luocheng masters really took the matter of building a house very seriously.
Now that the end of the twelfth twelfth lunar month is approaching the end of the new year, Liang Chuan knew that the construction period would definitely not be completed before the new year. He also asked these Luocheng masters if they wanted to stop for a while and go back to wait for the new year before returning to work. Zhao Fafa heard this. These words make people stare, the work of building a house can stop at any time. What the ancestor taught them is to do their duty responsibly. The New Year is a trivial matter. They must do all the work at hand and give the owner a satisfactory house. , it’s not too late to go back, that way you can live with peace of mind!
Liang Chuan felt uncomfortable seeing that so many of them might have been at the construction site this year. However, their spirit of sincerity and sacrifice is very admirable. They have no control over how to make a living. If they want to offend their boss for the holidays, they often make troubles. It's okay to meet someone like me who is easy to talk to, and some of them are quite harsh. A little bit, I will discuss it with you.
For the past few days, the ax on Liang Chuan's head was swung thousands of times every day, with precise severity.
All methods in the world lead to the same goal through different paths. It is not like relying on the ancestors to enjoy food like studying and practicing Zen. It requires innate understanding. A rope can cut a tree and a drop of water can penetrate a stone. This is the right path.
Although the twelfth lunar month has passed the beginning of spring, there are occasional steep weather in the mountains, and there is still frost and ice when you get up early, which makes it very uncomfortable to hold that biting ax in your hand. At first glance, Li Chu saw this young man as frivolous and uninhibited, giving him a feeling of lack of determination. Unexpectedly, he was unwavering and did not slack off even once. He chopped countless firewood, but he had to carry this firewood every day. Go to the market to sell.
Li Chuyi's old house was burned to the ground by a group of people from Daman Mountain, leaving only a jar of preserved eggs. The preserved eggs in the vat were sealed and tempered by fire. After nearly a month, they had undergone qualitative changes.
In fact, no one paid much attention to the preserved eggs in this jar. Even Yi Niang thought that Xiang Yang was scared of hunger before and was greedy for duck eggs. She had a little money and was afraid of not having enough, so she bought so many. , there are a hundred duck eggs.
Yi Niang has long been worried that if the duck eggs are not eaten for a few days, they will turn into rotten eggs. If they are buried in the ash pile of mixed vegetation for a month, they will turn into rotten eggs. What else can they eat besides attracting flies?
Liang Chuan called Zhaodi and together they dug out the hundred eggs from the pile of grass and trees. They were piled up neatly like treasures. For this sacred moment, he also put He Baozheng, Li Chuyi, Zhaodi, Ye Xiaochai , Yang Xiu and Li Erhua also called over, and even the old comrade Zhao Fafa was invited over.
After eating a few rotten eggs, Liang Chuan actually acted like the Queen Mother's peach feast. Yi Niang was very worried that he would attract everyone's eyes.
Although Zhao Fafa also felt that Liang Xiaodong was very capable at a young age, he made such a huge formation just to eat a few duck eggs. It was just duck eggs. Who hasn't eaten them yet? As for that? He Baozheng didn't even know what kind of black mud pills were sold in Xiang Yang's gourd, and he didn't have the slightest sense of expectation in his heart.
Liang Chuan gathered everyone together, looked at these duck eggs mysteriously, and said to everyone: "Everyone must have eaten duck eggs and salted duck eggs. How do they taste?"
"I said, are you calling all of us here just to listen to your nonsense? There is still a lot of work to be done in the fields. When spring begins, we have to wait for the spring plowing. Who has the time to listen to you talking about duck eggs? Grandma's..." He Baozheng cursed until his mouth became crooked.
Several women were also confused. They didn't know what the boss was doing today.
"Why don't you even have this patience? Forget it, I won't let you off the hook!" Liang Chuan took out a duck egg and peeled it open. Everyone stared at the duck egg with disapproving expressions at first. An eggshell fell to the ground, and everyone's eyes were opened!
Different from the ordinary salted duck eggs, this duck egg does not have a white kernel inside, but a dark brown egg kernel like a crystal jujube cake. Liang Chuan slowly peeled off the eggshell. At first, everyone thought they had seen it wrong. After peeling the duck eggs, the whole egg inside is black and red, like a jade, crystal clear, with snowflake-like patterns on it, what kind of duck egg is this! There are such eggs in the world!
Simply unheard of!
"Sanlang... this..." When He Baozheng saw that Liang Chuan was unhappy, he yelled, "Hey, hey, you can yell as you please." Once Liang Chuan came up with some novel stuff that opened his eyes, he immediately showed admiration and respect. The attitude switches so freely, without any trace of deliberateness. .
Not only He Baozheng, but also an old man like Zhao Fafa, who has lived for more than a few decades and has eaten salt for decades more than others, has never seen such a duck egg: "This is definitely not a duck egg!"
Even Yang Xiu, Li Erhua and Ye Xiaochai didn't believe it. Everyone present didn't believe it. Except for Yi Niang, she picked these duck eggs with her own hands. She was also there when they were making them. The vat was still the same vat, but the duck eggs actually changed. Become a different duck egg!
"What kind of egg is this?" He Baozheng asked.
Liang Chuan said: "This is called Songhua Egg. I believe that even today's officials have never tried the taste of this egg!"
This time everyone believed Liang Chuan's words. They had never seen this egg, let alone heard of it, Songhua eggs. .
Liang Chuan took a knife and cut the loose egg into pieces. It bloomed on the table like a lotus.
"Yi Niang, bring you chopsticks and mix a plate of ginger and vinegar sauce. You are the first people in the world who are lucky enough to eat these preserved eggs. You are even luckier than the official family!"
After saying this, everyone was immediately proud. Who is the official? Everything in the world belongs to the official, and there are also things he has not eaten. .
Liang Chuan peeled another egg. Everyone took the chopsticks from Yi Niang and couldn't wait to taste the eggs. The preserved egg is not used to it when you first eat it. It has an alkali and astringent taste, but once you get used to it, you will find it very fragrant because some spices are added to the preserved egg.
Yang Xiu dipped a preserved egg in his hand and dipped it in some ginger-vinegar juice, then put it in his mouth and tried it again. The astringent taste of the seeds disappeared instantly, and the egg yolk was dark green and gelatinous. It tasted cool, refreshing, and fragrant. It’s not greasy, and it’s countless times better than the taste of salted duck eggs!
Yang Xiu, as the person with the loudest mouth and the most say in cooking among this group of people, is so sure about this preserved egg, which shows that Liang Chuan's new attempt has been successful again!
"I plan to take this egg to the market and sell it!"
He Baozheng said: "You are the only one in the world who sells eggs like this. You can make a fortune just by doing this in your life! How much do you plan to sell an egg for?"
"This is a very popular snack. I don't plan to set the price high. It's just starting now. The main thing is to open up the market. One preserved egg can be sold for the price of two to three duck eggs. When everyone gets addicted to it, we will slowly increase the price." Lift it up!"
Everyone's eyes were once again shocked. This technique was magical. Under his tinkering, one duck egg turned into three eggs. How is this different from the chicken that lays golden eggs? One egg turns into two eggs, two eggs. Changes from four to eight. As long as he keeps selling them, not to mention that some people like to eat them, but even curious people will buy a few and take them home for a taste. I am afraid that these preserved eggs will never have to worry about not being sold.
"Tomorrow I will go to Fengshan Street to sell eggs and see how the price of these eggs is!"
