On the second day, Di Fangxun had already rushed to the stall selling mountain peaches. As expected, the stall owner... didn't come today.
If you want to make a good soup, you must use salted plums! If you want to cook a good soup, you need to use salt and plum juice!
How can you live without sour plum juice?
However, the eyeliner said that there are better ones in the south, similar to sour plum juice and mountain peach juice. What came out of Shijing's mouth was a black juice called vinegar, which I heard is a by-product of grain processing.
A by-product of grain processing?
Di Fangxun frowned, thinking about the meaning of this word, and then suddenly thought of his bastard son Ahong. Ahong had been in the south for more than a year, so he must have known about the so-called grain by-products.
Oil press? It seems that that thing is the so-called machine for processing by-products!
Di Fangxun probably knew the meaning from the surface of this word. It was nothing more than processing and producing rich grains to make other delicious foods. However, the process and methods of this processing required a lot of attention.
Knowledge...these are the most important things.
Even if you are farming, if you want a good harvest, you still need to control pests and diseases, cultivate intensively, watch the world, and understand the weather and seasons. There are many ways to do it. Of course, anyone can get started with it.
, but if you want to achieve certain results, you definitely need to do in-depth research.
Emperor Fangxun thought a lot at once. Because of the sparse population in the south, it took three consecutive years of bumper harvests to have so much food. If the Central Plains widely promoted the southern planting methods, would the Central Plains be able to open up a new area in three years?
What about the "market" that has never existed since ancient times?
With enough food and warm clothes, the population will naturally increase, and migrant workers will also accelerate the city's production and construction...
The emperor's eyes suddenly lit up!
Hammer, knock, knock!
The emperor came in a hurry and left in a hurry, waving his sleeves and not taking away a piece of animal skin.
As for Ah Hong, who was about to return to his fiefdom, the door to his house was opened by his father not long after.
Danzhu had nothing to do during this time, so he stayed at home and pondered those tools. After scolding the four emperors last time, Chongbo was exiled. It has been a while now. There are no big things or small things, so Danzhu
After thinking carefully, I thought that my father no longer needed him here, so he was out of sight but out of mind... Ah no, he was guarding the border on behalf of the Emperor Mu. This was a major responsibility. I, Danzhu, had to guard against Sanmiao.
Yes, and the fiefdom has not been there for a long time, how could we not bring these advanced facilities and equipment back to our fiefdom.
The GDP of my hometown is in urgent need of my construction!
So Danzhu is ready to run away...
Although Dad changed his view on carpentry, he was still dissatisfied with A Hong's tinkering all day long, so A Hong understood that his father did not have an objection to carpentry, but to himself as a person doing carpentry.
.
I just didn't expect that dad would take the time to come over today.
And when I opened my mouth, I just asked about some things about rural cooperatives.
"Hey... are you asking..."
Danzhu was very surprised. What's wrong? Didn't Chonghua already be promoted to the central government? Now he is interested in Yuzai again?
"You have stayed in the south for a long time, and you are able to get along well. Can you tell me about the characteristics of that rural cooperative, what are its benefits, and how it works? Can you see if we can open one here?"
"When the time comes, I will let you, Ji Qi, and Zhong Rong be the managers of the cooperative, and you can develop those wooden tools with peace of mind."
Danzhu's eyes suddenly widened.
Good guy, it turns out that the thing hanging in the sky today is not the sun, but my father!
This is really dazzling, pie in the sky?
"Speaking of rural cooperatives, they have a great reputation..."
Danzhu said that it was finally his time to show off. Some time ago, both humans and ghosts were showing off, and he was the only one getting beaten up. It was finally dawn at night. After the disaster relief was over, he fought against a wave of Four Emperors at the conference.
It can be regarded as an expression of the depression in my heart, but now, I really have a good time.
Finally it was my turn to show off.
"Wait a minute, one more thing, let me ask you, what is vinegar?"
Di Fangxun asked Danzhu, and Danzhu let out an ahhhhhhhhhh, his eyes were staring straight at him, he scratched his head for a long time and said: "I left early, I didn't know..."
Di Fangxun was immediately disappointed: "You don't know this, then how do you know about grain by-products?"
Danzhu got angry: "Vinegar is not the only by-product of grain!"
"Let me think about it. I remember that there was soy milk in the mill, which was made from bean sprouts, but I didn't learn much about it. I knew how to make stone mills, but I heard from Yuzai at that time that there was some kind of cooking process.
It seems like there will be problems if it's not cooked well..."
"Soy milk, yes, it is also a by-product of grain, and oil cakes are those used in oil presses... Oh, and there seemed to be several large vats in the mill at that time. I heard that they were making some kind of distiller's yeast.
....."
Di Fangxun wondered: "What is a mill?"
Danzhu: "It's where these food by-products are produced..."
Di Fangxun: "Can you make one? Make one for me! I want all the good things in the south!"
Danzhu finds it very troublesome. You keep talking, but I'm not a humanoid Gundam. Why don't you just click the mouse while playing games?
So Danzhu rummaged through the travel box he was preparing to run away and found out a few hidden slips.
"What is this?"
Di Fangxun looked at Danzhu and his eyes suddenly became very stern. Danzhu said: "This is the rural work manual, written by the Akafang clan wizard Yu Zai. I just brought back a volume on carpentry."
That’s all, I don’t think the Emperor will be too interested..."
Di Fangxun exclaimed: "In other words, there are other volumes?"
"Yes, the two volumes of this rural work manual are the tenth and twelfth volumes. When I left, especially the tenth volume, I was the only one who had this volume. It is the first volume, the first volume.
One volume describes the twenty-four solar terms in detail, the second volume describes the art of observing the sky, the third volume explores water vapor, the fourth volume plows fields and harvests, and the fifth volume describes various types of grains and crops that can be planted...
."
"The sixth volume is about the selection of manure and soil identification, the seventh volume is about irrigation and fertilization, the eighth volume is about sericulture and hemp cultivation, the ninth volume is about fishing and raising chickens, the tenth volume is about basic equipment, the eleventh volume is about fruit tree cultivation, and the twelve volume
The volume is a summary of common sense...."
After listening to it, Emperor Fangxun was so shaken that he wrote this kind of slip... It has never happened before in ancient times. Just by listening to its name, you can know some of the content described in it. Of course, the details are not as rich as he thought...
.
Among them, the name of any volume is enough to support a world of sages, and the subjects involved are completely different!
"Bring it to me and see!"
Di Fangxun took the two volumes away, especially the twelfth volume, which also mentioned some things about preventing and controlling pests and diseases. Di Fangxun stared at it, and it took him a long time to raise his head, but he was the first to speak.
In one sentence, he scolded A Hong:
"You! You! You traitor!"
Danzhu: “???”
Di Fangxun: "You actually hid such a good thing yourself and prepared to take it back to the fiefdom. But you were in the south and you only took the tenth volume! Why didn't you take more! You still have me as your father in your eyes.
eh! Do you still have the people of the world you talk about in your eyes?"
"Okay, stop quibbling! My father will keep this thing for you now!"
