A noble son from a poor family
Chapter 7
When I got home, it was already afternoon, but it was still early, looking at the sun, it was about two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and I was idle, Chu Yunhao felt that it was time to do something interesting.
Prepare the ash water of the grass and trees, burn the mussel shells and mash them into ashes, and smelt the lard, yes, the officials did not guess wrong, Chu Yunhao is about to start making soap, after all, this is the first skill that all the protagonists need to cross.
Chu Yunhao was a top mechanical engineer in his previous life, but he also has an identity, he is also a hands-on expert with millions of fans on a certain platform, specializing in restoring the most traditional handmade methods of some things, such as soap, matches, glass, rubber, salt, perfume, pine ink, brushes, paper, and even black powder
To make all these preparations, the next thing is to wait for the lard to cool, and then filter the ash water of plants and trees to get alkaline water, at this time, as long as the cool lard is mixed with a certain proportion of alkaline water, and then add a certain amount of shell powder, fine salt, mixed together, bala into a creamy form poured into the bamboo tube to stand and solidify, and usually this curing process takes two to three days.
After all this was done, the sun was already in the west, and the fourth brother-in-law who went to the county seat to sell meat also came back with a donkey cart, because the meat was all sold, and the fourth brother-in-law was happy and in a good mood.
The fourth brother-in-law howled, parked the donkey cart on the side of the road and waited, after Chu Yunhao came over, the fourth brother-in-law picked up a big burden from the donkey cart, and took out a string of copper coins from his arms, and handed them to Chu Yunhao together.
A total of 800 yuan was sold, and there were more than 300 dollars left after buying things, and the accounts were all recorded on paper, so you can check it later. The fourth brother-in-law said, and took out a folded piece of yellow paper from his pocket and gave it to him.
Chu Yunhao nodded, took the paper, crumpled it into a ball and stuffed it into his sleeve, and with a flick of his sleeve, the note flew inadvertently.
Let's go, brother-in-law, you've worked hard all day, come into the house and have a cup of tea. Chu Yunhao said, pulling his fourth brother-in-law and going home.
I have to rush back to the village chief in this donkey cart, so I won't drink tea, and next time we will set a day to go into the mountains together. The fourth brother-in-law said, shouted, and drove the donkey cart away.
Chu Yunhao returned home with the package, and the sister-in-law immediately came over. Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, what's in this bag, is there anything to eat.
There is everything in this bag, but there is nothing to eat. Chu Yunhao wanted to tease his sister-in-law, so Zhengse said.
Well, forget it. The little girl looked disappointed and was about to walk away.
Does the rock sugar gourd count, does the osmanthus cake count, and does this big meat bun count. Seeing that the little girl was about to walk away, Chu Yunhao hurriedly took out the food from the package and put it on the table.
Hahaha, mine, mine, all mine. The little girl was busy guarding the food and held it in her arms.
So much, where are you finished, go and call your sisters to eat together! Chu Yunhao shook his head, what kind of bullshit gourd osmanthus cake, it was such an ordinary thing in the previous life, how attractive was it, it was one of the few desserts and snacks in this world.
Chu Yunhao took out the contents of the package one by one, and he also had to count if there were any missing purchases, cotton, yarn, cloth, salt, saltpeter, sulfur, well, almost.
This salt is really expensive, Chu Yunhao looked at the two jars of salt in bamboo tubes with a little pain, and it said eighty wen a catty, and these two cans of salt cost half the price of all the goods here. But the pain of the flesh is the pain of the flesh, he doesn't know how to make salt, he has a way to purify refined salt, but the salt is a franchise, if there is no big backer behind it, or he is not strong enough, he dare not touch this thing.
With
such a precious amount of salt, it is no wonder that every family has faded out of the cooking of a bird, not to mention the heavy taste of eating salty, judging from the local living standard, I wonder how many families can eat salt all year round is still the same thing! If he had not inherited the body of the original owner and was accustomed to eating light taste, he would have been unable to eat according to his preferences in his previous life.
After dinner, everyone sat together to do homework, and the four little daughters-in-law all said that they were too idle and asked Chu Yunhao to find something to do for them. Chu Yunhao thought about it for a long time, and he didn't have anything to do for them, even though he had a thousand ideals, but it hasn't opened yet, and it is not their turn to take care of things, stay at home, isn't it, but if there is no mobile phone computer Internet, a person really can't stay still, if only he could invent mahjong, they can get together at a table.
If you borrow a few spinning wheels, we can spin and weave cloth. Su Xiaoxiao suggested.
Okay, tomorrow I will build you a spinning wheel, borrow something, husband, I will make one for each of you tomorrow. Chu Yunhao woke up like a dream, and said arrogantly.
Why, if you don't believe it, I'll make it for you tomorrow. Looking at the four girls who didn't believe it one by one, Chu Yunhao said hatefully.
When he got up at night, Chu Yunhao went to the toilet and came back, lay down again in a daze, and his hand immediately touched a person's body, who is this, Chu Yunhao was puzzled and startled.
It's me who is in charge. This is Cai Xiuxiu's voice, which sounds a little excited, and seems to be a little shy and afraid.
Sure enough, Chu Yunhao sighed, they really listened to the instigation of a few sisters.
Chu Yunhao's heart was hot, and he sighed helplessly, since fate has arrived, then there is no need to hide, if he hides again, is he still a man. This is destined to be a sleepless night, a storm, a stormy wave, a symphony of life, and a roll of red plum dyeing paintings.
The next day, when he was having breakfast, Chu Yunhao found that except for Xiao Qi, Su Xiaoxiao and Li Ling'er looked at him a little differently than usual, what was the difference, yes, resentment, resentment, he was a principled person.
Eat more and grow up faster. Chu Yunhao gave Xiaoxiao a chopstick dish, touched Xiao Bu and nodded.
Well, that's a pun. When Su Xiaoxiao and Li Ling'er heard this, they glanced at Chu Yunhao with hatred, and took a big gulp of food.
After breakfast and preparing a gift, Chu Yunhao put a basket on his back, and today he was going to accompany Li Ling'er back to her mother's house to visit relatives.
Su Xiaoxiao kept watching them go away, and she felt very bad in her heart, he was so good to everyone, who was his most sincere!
Li Ling'er's mother's house is in the village opposite the river, the river is twenty or thirty zhang wide, and the nearest bridge is still five miles upstream, Chu Yunhao and they have to take a ferry to go over.
Come to the front of the village under the big willow tree by the river, the Tongjiang River turns a word here, here is a bay, the water flow is gentle, most of the boats in the village are docked here, there is only one docked here at present.
They were all from the village, everyone knew each other, said hello, explained their intentions, and then got on the boat and shook it to the other side.
The owner of the boat is an old man, everyone calls him Daddy Li, and there are seven or eight fish in the living water tank at the stern, and each fish is several catties in size.
Daddy Li, don't sell this fish yet. Chu Yunhao said.
This was set by the rich man Li of Hexiang Village, and the rich man Li will have his mother's seventieth birthday tomorrow, and he will use it to make wine. Daddy Li said with a smile.
Brother Chu, do you want to take the two tails back to eat fresh, I will choose the two largest tails for you, thirty yuan each. Daddy Li promoted his fishing goods, he knew that this little couple was going back to their parents' house to save their relatives today, and it would be good to buy two fish for his mother-in-law as a gift!
In the past, the villagers called him Little Liuzi, but now there are more and more people calling him Chu Ge'er, which means that he has grown up, and the villagers have gradually regarded him as an adult.
Then let's have two tails. Chu Yunhao said.
This fish weighs five or six pounds and thirty copper plates, which is really not expensive. To tell the truth, the so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to draft water, the local villagers really have no less fish, want to eat fish, take the fishing rod, the harvest will never be less at the end of the day, but there are not many fish that can be eaten, why, everyone is short of salt and oil, at least the big fish has to be used to make soup, what fried and fried these, don't think about it, the small fish have to be used to feed the chickens and ducks, even if they are used to make soup, with the gold of salt they eat, and the lack of condiments, it is not possible to suppress this fishy smell, the taste is far less comfortable than a bowl of porridge or taro paste。
So in this era, fishing, you have to catch big fish, you can't catch big fish, it's all chicken ribs, but big fish are not so easy to catch, I want to have a few pounds of big fish every day, don't dream, this is all fishermen with nets. Here, if you fish every day, children are just children, and if adults don't fish every day and don't work, it's all considered lazy.
In many novels read by Chu Yunhao in his previous life, the places where the protagonist traveled were eating wild vegetables to survive, cutting, if there was a lack of fat and protein sources, he would starve to death every day, even if he didn't starve to death, he could only lie there and couldn't do anything, and he had edema. In the previous life of Huaxia, during the three-year difficult period, how many people were like this. In this world, where there is a shortage of edible oil and soy protein, adults have to eat at least one pound of grain every day, and they must drink some unpalatable fish soup frequently, so that they can do their work. A pound of grain, that is also to take rice and flour as staple grains, if it is a miscellaneous grain such as taro paste, you have to eat more. Those who write every day that people eat wild vegetables to survive, this is completely ignorant of the energy needs of the human body to keep running
