(More tips for book friend Wu Weiqing)
Han Cheng didn't want to use clay pots for a long time.
Tribes also used copper to cast pots.
However, due to the material of copper and the tribe's insufficient technology for casting bronze utensils, the copper pots in the tribe are still not very good.
The largest and most successful one, the rice cooked at one time was only enough to feed five or seven people.
In today's world where big pot rice is still practiced, such a pot is obviously not able to adapt to the situation.
In view of this situation, we can only continue to use clay pots.
Of course, the reason why Han Cheng looked down on the clay pot was not because it looked too earthy, but because it had poor thermal conductivity and could not be used for cooking.
He did not let the people in the tribe bang on the copper pots, nor did he replace the earthenware pots with copper pots on a large scale in the tribe.
Because copper pots are limited by their material, they are also not suitable for cooking.
If the copper pot can be used for cooking, he will ask the people in the tribe to make a big and good copper pot no matter what!
These clay pots in the tribe had long been smashed to pieces by him.
Not long after he simmered the first pot of fish, someone else came over carrying a jar of pounded rice.
This time, Han Cheng did not wash the rice again, but asked people who were often busy in the kitchen to wash the rice.
This is also a kind of exercise for them.
Whether it's a new tool or a new food, it won't be easy to do it well unless you do it a few times.
Naturally, Han Cheng could not stay in the kitchen for a long time.
Under such circumstances, it is necessary to let more people in the tribe exercise.
Han Cheng was not idle either. At this time, he picked up a large wooden spoon and inserted it into the large pottery pot where the rice was steaming.
Steaming rice in a firewood pot is different from steaming rice in an electric rice cooker.
To steam rice in a rice cooker, just add rice and appropriate water to the pot, cover the lid, press it on top of the steamed rice and you're ready to eat.
But that's not the case with firewood pots.
When steaming rice in a wood stove, you not only need to control the heat to prevent the rice from being steamed to a paste, but you also need to use a spoon against the bottom of the pot and push and pull it back and forth several times before the rice is steamed.
The purpose of this is to prevent the rice from 'shaking'.
The so-called "shaking the pot" means that the rice grains stick to the bottom of the pot.
If you don't stir it back and forth several times, the rice grains stuck to the bottom of the pot will be stirred up and moved to other places, which will easily cause the pot to get stuck in the next process.
This is not only true for steamed rice and dry rice, but also for cooking corn grits rice, which also requires stirring several times.
In Han Cheng's memory, it was when he was about thirteen or fourteen years old that a rice cooker was used at home.
So he is no stranger to using firewood pots to steam rice and make porridge.
"Turn down the fire, don't make it a big fire."
"Cover the firewood under the pot with ashes..."
After stirring the pot several times, the water in the pot became less and less.
Han Cheng began to make such explanations to the people who lit the fire.
Then, holding a spoon in his hand, he carefully scraped the surface of the bubbling rice to scrape out the 'rice oil' on it and put it into the bowl.
Rice oil is Han Cheng's favorite. It can be said to be the essence of a pot of rice.
Steam a large pot of rice, which can basically contain a bowl of rice oil.
It takes so much rice to cook such a small amount, so you can imagine how precious it is.
When steaming rice on a wood stove, Han Cheng's favorite drink is the rice oil scraped from the bowl.
It tastes so good when you take a sip!
Scrape out the rice oil and the pot of rice is basically steamed.
Cover the lid and simmer for a while until the rice is cooked.
Han Cheng opened the lid of the pot and poured the steamed rice into the basin.
After shoveling the rice in the pot to the end, the surprise Han Cheng was looking forward to finally appeared.
Looking at the layer of rice chrome residue under the pot that clung tightly to the pottery pot, Han Chenggong couldn't help but swallow some saliva.
This thing is also one of Han Cheng's favorites when steaming rice.
The only thing that can be compared to it is the chrome residue that appears on the edge of the steamed buns placed against the edge of the pot when steaming buns on a wood stove.
Both items are equally delicious.
Han Chengcheng was able to eat a lot without using vegetables at all.
However, as he grew up, he used a rice cooker to steam rice and bought steamed buns on the street. These two things gradually disappeared as his childhood became farther and farther away.
Now that he has returned to primitive society, he does not need to think too much. He will never use the rice cooker in his lifetime.
However, it is also a blessing in disguise, as I can eat some childhood flavors that are very reminiscent of my childhood.
Rice oil and rice chromium residue are the benefits brought about by this change.
The people standing nearby were embarrassed to see the rice chrome residue on the pottery pot after shoveling the rice.
Because this kind of thing sticks very tightly to the pot, it is not easy to get it up.
If the strength of the hand is too weak, it will not be able to shovel it off. If the strength of the hand is too strong, the pot will be damaged by the shovel.
However, it would be too wasteful to just add water and soak them directly in it.
Such behavior of wasting food is definitely not in line with the style of the Qingque tribe people.
People in the Qingque tribe who often cook were troubled by such a thing.
Han Cheng didn't feel this embarrassment.
As a child, he often ate wood-fired steamed rice and rice crumbs, so he knew how to make these things easily.
People in the kitchen felt in a dilemma. Han Cheng took a spatula, picked out a little oil from the oil can, and evenly spread it on the rice chrome residue stuck to the pot.
Then use a fire stick to stir gently twice under the wood stove.
The ash that had lost its temperature was pulled aside, and the charcoal covering it was exposed.
As these coals were exposed, the temperature inside the stove suddenly rose a lot.
Under such roasting, not long after, there was a subtle "click" sound in the pottery pot.
Then, under the extremely surprised gazes of everyone in the kitchen, a magical scene appeared.
The rice chromium residue that was originally stuck very tightly to the bottom of the pot, something that was extremely difficult to get down, now actually stood up on its own!
The Son of God didn't do much, he just applied a little oil on it and stirred the fire under the wood stove a little.
However, the effect it plays is so magical and huge!
The Son of God is the Son of God!
He is always so wise, always able to come up with simple and easy-to-use methods, and easily solves embarrassing things!
While they were sighing, Han Cheng reached out and picked up a piece of rice chrome residue that was tilted up and browned on one side.
Bring it to your mouth and take a gentle bite. It is crunchy and crispy, and the mouth is full of burnt aroma. It still has a familiar taste.
This familiar smell made Han Cheng narrow his eyes in dismay.
Some memories that have passed for a long time, and corresponding pictures, appear in my mind.
Memories of the past, just chewing the burnt rice chrome residue, the taste is really amazing.
It makes people feel a mixture of emotions.
The people in the kitchen couldn't help but marvel at the miraculous wisdom and methods of the Son of God.
Because the Son of God was impressed by them, he gave them some rice chrome residue that automatically lifted up from the pot.
The rice chrome slag is browned on one side and burnt in the mouth, which is enough for them to immerse themselves in the delicious taste of the rice chrome slag and temporarily forget about the things Shenzi just made.
Not long after the large pot of rice came out of the pot, a new pot of rice was put back into the pot, water was added, and steaming began.
The fish soup here is also ready. Han Cheng opened the lid of the pot and put a few handfuls of chopped green onion into it. After tasting the sweet and salty taste, he directly used a ladle and a spoon to pour the fish in the big pot.
The soup was poured into a large pottery jar specially used for rice.
After cleaning the pot a little, a new pot of fish soup was boiled.
After some operations, fires started burning under six large pots in the kitchen.
Four of the pots are steaming rice, and the other two are boiling fish soup for pouring the rice.
If the people in the tribe can clean fish and pound rice faster and ensure sufficient supply of materials, Han Cheng can make thirty large pots in the kitchen burn!
With a population of nearly 1,500, Jinguan City naturally has more than thirty cauldrons.
This is just the main kitchen here in Jinguancheng.
In addition to the main kitchen, there are also two small-scale auxiliary kitchens.
There are fifteen large pots in a side kitchen!
These sixty cauldrons, under full fire, are enough to ensure that everyone in Jinguan City has food in their mouths at the same time.
However, such a thing cannot happen today.
Due to the limited supply of materials, it is now impossible to cook ten large pots at the same time, let alone light sixty pots at the same time!
Time passed quietly, and after a while, four more pots of rice and three pots of fish soup came out.
At this time, the first pot came out of the pot and the rice in the big basin was already a little cold.
Not only the rice, but also the fish soup that was served at the beginning was a little cold.
Most food is delicious when eaten hot, but the taste will be affected when it is cold. Moreover, sometimes eating too much cold food can easily cause some gastrointestinal diseases.
Han Cheng looked at the food that was gradually getting cold, and after thinking for a while, he made a different decision than before.
"Go and call over those who are working there with Second Senior Brother, and ask them to come back to eat first, while the rest continue to work.
After they have eaten, they go on to work, and then some of the remaining people come over to eat.”
Han Cheng opened his mouth to explain to the person next to him.
The solution he came up with was to eat in batches.
Let a group of people come back to eat the cooked meals first, instead of having everyone eat together as before.
In this way, the problem of the rice being cooked at the beginning being left to cool down can be solved very well.
After receiving Han Cheng's instructions, this man immediately rushed towards the fields outside the wall. Not long after, he had arrived in the paddy field and found the second senior brother who was leading people to harvest rice there.
Then he said what Han Cheng had just told him.
The second senior brother looked up at the sun in the sky, which was still going to be brighter and would not set for a while. He was a little confused for a moment.
What happened today?
When we were working in the past, didn't we have to wait until the sun went down and it was almost dark before we started eating dinner?
Why did you eat so early today?
And instead of everyone going to eat together, some of them are asked to wait first?
But he was confused, and the second senior brother was not ambiguous at all when it came to food.
After it became clear that this was something arranged by the Son of God, and that they were really asked to go back to eat food first, the second senior brother immediately started howling at the top of his lungs.
Then he rushed up the rice field ridge with lightning speed, came to the canal, quickly washed off the dirt on his body and face, ran all the way, and rode towards Jinguan City at a speed.
This speed, this reaction, is better than when Han Cheng was in middle school. When he heard the bell rang for the last class, he picked up his rice bowl, opened the classroom door, and ran towards the cafeteria. He must be decisive and
fast!
The people who were working in the same large rice field as the second senior brother had not yet reacted to this sudden change at first. They were all a little confused and stood there in a daze.
However, after seeing the second senior brother running towards the tribe and towards the kitchen, they all came to their senses.
No one could care about being confused and dazed here, they all started running towards the tribe, following the example of the second senior brother.
You know, today is steamed rice and dry rice!
The person who cooks is still the Son of God who no longer cooks!
When such thoughts arise, they can't even run fast!
The rest of the people working in the fields naturally saw the movement here and knew what these people were going back to do.
People who were not very hungry at first are now extremely hungry all of a sudden, with their chest touching their back.
Standing here, scratching my head, it is very painful, and I wish I could join such a group and go to eat with these people!
When you are already hungry, standing here and watching people go to eat happily, the feeling is really extremely complicated and difficult to describe!
The second senior brother who had rushed to the kitchen at this time was completely unable to understand the extremely complicated mood of those who stayed outside.
He was holding a large bowl in his hand, with half a bowl of rice in it, and a large spoonful of fish soup mixed with fish pieces poured on top.
Just taking a bite of it with chopsticks, the second senior brother couldn't help but give a thumbs up!
This dried rice is extremely delicious just to eat it, not to mention it is paired with the delicious fish soup made by Shenzi himself!
One bite of it really makes you feel extremely comfortable from the inside out!
The second senior brother didn't even have time to say a word. After hurriedly gesturing with his thumbs, he took it open and took it to his mouth. The food was so sweet!
Not only him, but the rest of the people who came back also had no better eating habits than the second senior brother. They all devoured the food ravenously and couldn't stop eating at all!
Seeing such a scene, Han Cheng was particularly happy.
What a cook likes to see most is the dishes he makes, which are very popular among people.
This is a silent affirmation for those who cook!
Han Cheng, who had some time off from his busy schedule, shoveled half a bowl of rice, poured fish soup on top and ate it here.
The steamed rice from the newly harvested rice, coupled with the fish soup cooked from the rice fish just caught from the rice fields, the taste is really unforgettable.
The fragrant and soft rice, combined with the delicious fish soup, tastes really delicious.
The fish meat is also chewy and chewy. It is not comparable to those fish that were brought from farms in other places in later generations, dumped in local reservoirs and raised for a month, and then fished out and sold as local fish.
.
That kind of fish tastes like a mess, and the texture is so bad that after one bite, you won’t want to take another bite!
Due to the lack of food, food control was implemented here in Jinguan City.
However, such food control ceased to exist after the autumn harvest began.
During the autumn harvest, everyone can eat with open stomachs.
So the second senior brother and others all ate a belly ball.
"Call those people who work with Mao back for dinner."
While the second senior brother and others were eating, the kitchen did not take a break. They were still steaming rice and cooking fish soup.
By the time the second senior brother and others had finished eating and were about to leave, a lot of food was coming out of the pan.
Han Cheng dealt with the second senior brother and others like this.
The second senior brother and the others responded and walked towards the rice fields.
The sun has not set yet. If they go there at this time, they can still do a lot of work.
Seeing the Second Senior Brother and others walking out with a look of laziness and enjoyment, rubbing their bellies, Mao and the others felt envious in their hearts.
After learning that it was their turn to eat, they all ran faster than Mao and others before!
Time passed quietly as everyone took turns to eat. By the time everyone had finished eating, it was already dark.
After eating a lot of browned rice crumbs and drinking two bowls of rice oil, Han Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Sitting on the wall, looking around the tribe, and lazily enjoying the leisure time after dinner for a while, Han Cheng began to think about business.
The main thing he was thinking about at this time was how everyone in the tribe would eat this afternoon.
In the past, people in the tribe basically cooked rice and ate it together.
Today, due to the shortage of food supplies, Han Cheng made some changes.
Instead of eating them together before, they now eat them in batches.
It was precisely because of eating in batches at this time that Han Cheng discovered something.
The thing is, this way of eating in batches saves a lot of time compared to the previous way of eating.
The main reason is that there are fewer people eating at one time and it is easy to handle. It is not like before where everyone came to eat.
For people standing at the back, it will take a long time just to queue up for food.
In addition to these, the number of people cooking can also be reduced a lot.
In the past, in order to satisfy the people of the tribe to eat together, every time it came time to do so, here in Jinguan City, there were three kitchens with one master, two assistants, and they had to start cooking.
Three kitchens with sixty large pots, including pot cooks, cooks, and some helpers, a hundred people working here are not enough.
But now, after switching to eating in batches, there is no need to light so many firewood stoves at once. One or twenty people can handle such a thing.
Of course, due to the reduction in manpower, the time these cooks need to cook will increase a lot.
But when it comes down to it, this is more cost-effective.
Because letting specialized people do specialized tasks can better improve work efficiency and improve the quality of work.
This is something that has been fully proven by the assembly lines of later generations.
Moreover, the nearly one hundred people who were saved can also be put into other places to do other work.
It seems that some changes will need to be made in my tribe in the future.
Eat in batches, and from now on, you will make it a custom one.
This system, which can fully improve efficiency, must be implemented continuously.
Han Cheng thought in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was necessary to carry out such a thing.
After doing this for a while, Han Chengshu's open brows slowly wrinkled again.
Because he thought about some of the problems that would be encountered in implementing such a system.
Of course it wasn't the opposition from everyone in the tribe.
In today's tribe, if you implement such a thing, you will definitely not encounter any resistance.
What he is worried about is the chaos caused by the implementation of such a system.
For example, today, some people have come to eat, and the rest who have not yet eaten will become panicked, unable to concentrate on work, and constantly thinking about when it will be their turn to eat.
It's okay to do it once or twice occasionally. If something like this happens too often, it will become confusing because there is no clear arrangement.
After sitting here and thinking back and forth for a long time, Han Cheng probably figured out the root cause of this incident.
As long as this fundamental reason is solved, then the things that I am worried about now can basically be solved easily.
The fundamental reason is the management chaos in the tribe.
In other words, there is no clear organizational unit established in the tribe!
At the beginning, there were only a few people in the tribe, making it easy to manage, so Han Cheng didn't think about establishing any organizational units.
This kind of thing continues to this day.
The Qingque Tribe is already completely different from what it used to be.
This is not what it used to be, and it refers not only to productivity, but also to population.
As the population continues to increase, especially the large-scale influx of people from the Qingque Alliance this year, the explosive growth of the population has further increased the pressure on management.
It can easily cause management confusion.
In response to this situation, Han Cheng also made some adjustments and arrangements.
However, the effect was limited and did not achieve the effect Han Cheng expected.
When such a situation occurs, it means that the old and extensive management methods are no longer suitable for the current tribe!
The tribe must implement new management methods and establish a new management organization to solve this problem. We can no longer use the old methods and tinker with the old framework...
