Chapter 55: Life is not easy, goods arrive from sea (fourth update)

The four of them ate with their hands. The prince couldn't eat meat every day. The long live master was picking at it, no, he was being frugal!

How to cook chicken? It tastes better than stewed.

They will stop eating staple food first and wait until they get over their craving for meat.

A five-pound chicken was just enough to be shared between two people in Daming, so they probably ate it.

Zhu Wentian quickly finished the two chicken thighs and started to eat the staple food, fried noodles with soybean paste.

It’s hot and I don’t want to eat hot rice, other steamed buns, pies, etc.

The noodles of Zhajiang Noodles are pressed noodles, or machine-made noodles. Zhu Wentian makes them according to the drawings, so there is no need to spend a lot of manpower to roll the noodles by hand.

When stretching noodles, we usually use canopy ash. There is no fluffy grass locally. If there is, we can just use fluffy grass to make alkali.

When these things are not available, using potassium carbonate as a noodle agent is more effective than ash.

That is, if the village wants to eat ramen or stretch noodles, salt and soda must be added to the noodles to make them strong.

Moreover, the noodles are not easy to break when stretching, otherwise they will become two pieces as soon as you stretch them.

The sauce is chicken offal, and the eggs are fried with the sauce. This is definitely not the sweet noodle sauce for roast duck, but black bean sauce.

Sweet noodle sauce is made from fermented noodles, and black bean sauce is made from fermented soybeans.

It was refreshing to eat fried noodles with soybean paste on a hot day, and the chicken liver with sauce made Zhu Wentian slurp down the food.

While eating, I thought about planting sorghum. Don’t worry about the yield of sorghum. It’s good to eat in summer.

Sorghum rice is best suited for boiled rice. Soak the steamed sorghum rice twice in well water.

Fry another soybean, prepare pepper noodles, salt, chopped green onion, and cold water, and put them in a bowl.

Fry the soybeans, pour them into a bowl while they are still hot, and quickly cover the bowl with a chirp sound, or place a large plate to cover it.

After about two quarters of an hour, the beans will be soaked a little bigger and will taste fresh with a hint of bean flavor.

It's best to use this with sorghum rice and rice. Cut half a salted duck egg into pieces and eat it with chopsticks. It's delicious.

Zhou Zong looked at Hanhan's action of eating noodles and felt that the chicken drumsticks in his hands were no longer fragrant. Are they that delicious?

After finishing the chicken drumsticks in several mouthfuls, he also asked for a bowl of noodles. He put on the sauce like a fool, took a sip, and instantly fell in love with this feeling.

He stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the chicken liver, but there was only a small piece left on the plate. Two pairs of chopsticks reached out at the same time, and there was an inadvertent collision, and the knife-edged chopsticks were bounced away.

Zhou Zong was stunned, such a big strength? Can his fingers be stronger?

Zhu Wentian: "..."

He swallowed, carefully picked up the piece of chicken liver with sauce, and handed it over: "Here, um!"

After brushing, the officials and the head of the village turned their eyes.

Zhou Zong suddenly felt sweat on his forehead. He had never been so scared when facing thousands of enemy troops.

So he said nervously: "No, I'll give it to you, you eat it, hey hey hey hey!"

Everyone at the main table: "..."

"Hehehe! Okay!" Zhu Wentian retracted his chopsticks.

"Two more plates of sauced chicken livers," the manager shouted.

As two large plates of chicken livers were served, the scene suddenly became harmonious.

Zhu Wentian picked the largest chicken liver clip and gave it to Zhou Zong and smiled at him.

Zhou Zong was so touched, even a fool knows how to take care of others!

When Zhu Wentian finished eating and left the table to take a nap, Zhou Zong felt that the war was finally over.

"Yi Chang, I never thought that chicken offal could be delicious."

After drinking wine, Li Zhixian ate his staple food, mixed with chicken offal sauce. He tasted it and praised it.

"It's fried in oil, even wild vegetables, blanch them in water and mix them with salt, sugar, vinegar and sesame oil, and they'll still be delicious."

The director explained the reason and spooned out the sauce to mix with his own noodles.

Zhou Zong thought of the task: "Chief, how do you make roast duck? Your Majesty, the Queen, and His Royal Highness all say it is delicious."

"Wait for me." The chief left the table directly, went to his home, came back, and handed Zhou Zong a long box.

"The instructions for making roast duck and sweet noodle sauce are in it, and there are also eight pills of medicine wrapped in oil paper and sealed with wax.

The medicine is called Angong Niuhuang Pills, and there is a separate sheet of paper describing what symptoms it should treat.

That roast duck! In fact, you can sell it to foreigners. It doesn’t matter if it’s a little more expensive in Shifu, they love to eat it.”

The chief introduced it and had already prepared it.

When making roast duck, Hanhan said, "I will definitely like it today, let's prepare it first."

I didn't expect... No, I should say that Hanhan was right. Hanhan said that if he dug a well, then there would be drought.

Zhou Zong and officials, including four princes whose names were easy to remember, heard about it in an instant.

They have prepared it in advance, waiting for you to ask, and will give you extra medicine.

Is the hermit master so scary? I am sure, at least I believe that he will definitely not be the counselor who once served under a defeated general.

Zhou Zong speeds up his meal, he is anxious and wants to go back quickly.

In the afternoon, all the people left.

The officials and the recruited people left, and the 200 new people arrived with a large amount of settlement expenses, and the 50 people were given some rock candy.

The official gave each of them a jar of chicken fried sauce and told them they must eat it within three days.

The smoked chicken was originally prepared for officials, but Zhou Zong and others took the smoked chicken away.

The head of the village arranged accommodation for the four people, and sent any delicious food in the village to the prince. They were responsible for supervising and following.

Otherwise, if you try to taste it all the time, the hot dishes will be cold and the cold dishes will be rancid.

The key is that the relationship between the village and the palace is connected through food. How uncomfortable it would be to break it off!

The four of them were a little reluctant when they came, but now they fell in love with the village.

After they selected the house, they walked around a lot. Damn it! Why are there so many villages?

The key is these lands, and then look at the number of livestock, are they enough for farming?

If there are more animals, there will be no one to help the plow.

There are 552 people, men, women, old and young. The little ones are waiting for food, and there are more than 400 big animals. Well! Some of them haven't grown up yet.

No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince personally warned him when he arrived: Be respectful, be cautious in your actions, and be cautious in your words, especially the village guard named Hanhan. If you offend him, you will offend the whole village.

If you slap a villager in the face, the villagers may be afraid that you come from the prince's family and tolerate it.

If you slap a village guard, the villagers will bite you to death or eat you alive.

And you were killed because of this. As the prince, I cannot avenge you.

The four of them walked around and returned to the dormitory. They were arranged to live in the fourth empty house at the entrance of the village.

The villagers helped with weeding, laying soil, repairing windows, getting rid of all the spiders, and even caught a nest of rabbits that were well hidden.

He told them to give them extra food in the evening, braised in braised sauce, the kind that must be braised in braised pork. Raise the little ones and braise them when they grow up.

The mayor is not here, I don't know where he went.

The director is now with Hanhan, and a group of Hanhan's friends, and they are all looking at some useful information about seafood.

"Brother Hanhan, what is this?" The little girl had never left the village before, but later went to the county town and still didn't recognize him.

"Dried abalone, so big, there are four abalones, one pound weighs four.

Next to it is Haihonggan, called mussels, which looks to be ten years old.

The darker ones are dried oysters, which are also more than ten years old.

Those that look like dried vegetable leaves with outward branches are called kelp, while those without branches are called kelp.

The yellow, dry branches are called Gelidium. This is actually not precious, but I can use it to make jelly for you.

Caterpillar-like sea cucumbers are very difficult to catch at the moment, and people will die if they are not careful, fishing for them from the bottom of the sea.

Looking back, I will think of ways to make sea cucumber fishing easier.

Yo! There are actually shark fins, which are the fins of sharks. It is unusually difficult to catch them.

There are a lot of seaweeds, this one is good, we can use it in soup, it’s so fresh.

The dried shrimps were not properly processed, so they were packed in sacks with shells and shrimp heads, beaten and made into snacks."

Zhu Wentian introduced them one by one, and he knew all the dried seafood.

Including a few shriveled sea sausages mixed in the dried shrimps. This is more expensive than dried shrimps, but it’s a pity that others don’t recognize it now.
