Chapter 66: Mutton Soup without Seeking Follow-up Thoughts (Third Update)

The village of Xiaqiu paid to hire people to help kill the livestock, skin them, and burn them outside the city.

Clean the lime and sand on the ground, spread it again, and keep the animals in this position.

Everyone went to drink mutton soup. The person selling the mutton soup and his waiters laid out everything and served them happily.

Officials from the county came to drink with them, and then saw people from Xiaqiu Village putting pepper on the table.

So when they were drinking mutton soup, they deeply felt the financial resources of this village, which should be the best in the world.

There are 552 people, and there are more animals than people. How did this happen?

Zhu Wentian looked at the official's expression, glanced down at his mouth, and thought to himself: What is this?

Have you ever seen that when the salary was seventy or eighty yuan a month and you lived in a factory house, there was a village where every family built a villa with an annual output value of more than one hundred million yuan.

There were only about 600 people in that village at the beginning. There was no stability without farmers, no livelihood without business, and no prosperity without industry.

I'm in Xiaqiu Village, and we haven't made any efforts yet! The basic industry is really bad.

That village at that time sent people out to learn skills. Our Xiaqiu Village didn't have to do that. Why should we go outside to learn? Come with me.

The former Song Dynasty's 300 years of raising scholars could not save the Song Dynasty. The village raised my predecessor for 12 years, which is enough!

"Is this mutton soup with pepper? It's delicious!"

One of the six closest subordinates of the City Secretary added a little pepper, drank it, and immediately praised it.

Zhu Wentian filled a small spoon and put it into the other party's soup: "Drink! Okay! Hey hey hey hey!"

What is enough pepper for? When drinking mutton soup, you have to add a lot of pepper to suppress the smell.

"Enough, enough, too much." The other party stirred quickly and decided to drink up all the soup base in a while, but not throw it away.

Those who paid for rock sugar and soap but did not receive the goods drank mutton soup together. If the mutton soup was not enough, they bought it from the store that sold mutton soup.

The other party doesn't calculate the money based on the bowl, but calculates it based on the money for buying sheep and the money for handicrafts, so you make a lot less.

Big customers have no choice. Not only do they have many people and money, but they also have officials.

While Zhu Wentian was drinking, he looked at the county officials. The other officials looked unhappy. This is not okay!

In the future, there will be many times when I say hello in Dangtu County. If the officials don’t say anything, I won’t cooperate! Is it okay if they delay you for a while according to normal procedures?

What should I do? Give money before? Unlike the officials in Xuancheng County.

After thinking about it, Zhu Wentian picked up the sheep soup bowl, looked up at the sky, and shouted: "Sheep, sheep! Ah!"

Along with his shouts, he poured out a bowl of mutton soup and controlled the angle.

The officials' clothes were immediately splashed with water, and there was a lot of suet in the bowl, as well as various seasonings.

"Hanhan, Hanhan, those are clouds, not sheep." The chief quickly explained as he sat down on Hanhan.

"Sheep? Cloud? Ah! Hey hey hey!" Zhu Wentian responded.

"This, this..." An official was very angry, but he couldn't get angry at a fool.

"Oil, you, oil, wash, ah, soap, uh uh uh! Hehe!"

Zhu Wentian looked at the other person's clothes and told him that there was oil on his clothes and that he had to wash them with soap.

"Yes, yes, I have extra soap here. I need at least three pieces for these clothes."

Li Chang realized that Hanhan wanted to give the other party benefits, so he splashed it, right?

He turned around and went to get the soap. There was always extra soap. Let alone the county magistrate, the government official came and poured it again. There was still soap.

You must bring lots of good things with you when you go out, including rock candy and so on.

You have to give some unbelieving officials some room to try and taste it, right? Routine operation.

An official is given three pieces of soap and one piece of soap, the mayor is given one piece of soap and one piece of soap, and each of his six close relatives is given one piece of soap.

Even the mutton soup seller got a piece of soap, and he couldn't stop laughing, hehehe.

As for the waiter standing nearby, ready to refill the soup, more than a dozen drops were splashed on his body, but no one cared.

You sell mutton soup, it would be weird if your clothes didn't splash soup!

"How embarrassing is this? Who can't catch the bowl yet?"

The official who was the first to get angry just now had a smile on his face, wishing that Hanhan could splash him a few more times.

"Just take a shower and it'll be fine. Hanhan always gets distracted when he's drinking mutton soup in the village. Sorry!"

After the director delivered the things, his smile became natural.

"This child looks so simple. The clouds in the sky happen to be sheep!"

The officials were given soap and soap, pointing to the gloomy sky.

Everyone agreed, yes, there are white clouds floating in the blue cloudy sky, and sometimes they turn into characters, sometimes they turn into characters, sometimes they turn into sheep... and fly... to the south?

Whether there are clouds or not, whether there are sheep or not, it doesn’t really matter where we are flying, as long as everyone is enjoying themselves.

In the evening, the meal of mutton soup was finished. The officials were drunk and dizzy. They praised him, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, he is naive and simple," and then returned... home.

It is impossible to go back to the Yamen, it is closed, and if you are drunk, you will be impeached.

Zhu Wentian couldn't leave. He had to take care of the animals he bought, and he had to stay overnight today.

Now if we force our way to the village, the livestock team will have to reduce its numbers. Well! It will be a non-combat attrition.

They continued to feed them fine food, and the water they drank was boiled water and allowed to cool, with some alum and salt added.

The hides and tendons of the dead animals were taken out, and the rest was burnt to ashes in the fire.

Today, the licorice and alum sold very well in the drug store in Tu County, and the price of rice wine without lime has also increased slightly.

Someone used a lamp to brush the animals' fur at night, brushing them with plant ash and alum water, brushing them with soapy water, and then brushing them with clean water.

The sick animals were cared for in this way, and every one of them became energetic.

After eating, a lot of straw was spread under the body, and he lay down on his side peacefully, including the horse.

Horses are only willing to lie down to sleep in a particularly familiar environment and after being deliberately taught by people. For example, horses filming TV series lie on their sides and cooperate with the camera.

Normally in unfamiliar places, horses sleep standing up to facilitate running.

Today he was well fed, his hair was comfortable, and his horse was lying on a pile of straw.

Sick animals know the good and the bad, and they are always in contact with people. They are really tired, so lie down!

Zhu Wentian came over to take a look around, and found that there were no major problems, and they were all alive. There were twenty different animals with cubs.

This needs to be taken good care of and observed at all times. It would be troublesome to find that the fetus is stillborn due to illness! Should I do an autopsy?

"I will build the glass kiln when I get back, otherwise there will be no way to dissect it. After the dissection, I can only use it as a normal animal, and it will be impossible to give birth to cubs!"

He muttered that in order to build his own laboratory, three acids and two bases must be available at all times.

Purification, distillation, and dry distillation equipment must be rigorous.

Without practical things, how can you convince others? Rely on words? Tell people about economic models, international situations, industrial pillars...?

A man who can be an emperor listens to your vernacular? You are looking down on the ancients!

If that's the case, I'll go and tell Zhu Yuanzhang now. Unfortunately, if that's the case, Zhu Yuanzhang will ask, what are the details? What should I do if I make a mistake?

You told me that there is silver in Japan, okay, yes, how do you want me to get it back?

Do you know what the current situation is in Zhejiang, Fujian and other areas? Do you know the current situation in Japan?

Do you know how the sea breeze blows after the ship goes out to sea? Do you know how some samurai guard the coast of Japan?

Zhu Wentian actually knew and understood all of this, so he would not trick Zhu Yuanzhang into going to Japan to get silver.

He must first solve the problem of increasing domestic grain production, solve the problem of the basic weapons and materials of the Ming Dynasty, and solve the problem of surplus and deficit in foreign trade with foreigners.
