Li Mengyun and three others came into the house. Mai Miao saw them and blushed and made tea for them.

Tiedan saw it and asked in confusion: "Mai Miao, what's wrong with you? Your face is red. Did you steal your father's wine?"

Mai Miao didn't say anything, poured tea for the three of them and left.

Tiedan scratched his head: "What's wrong with her? I didn't offend her, did I?"

"fine."

Li Mengyun looked at this fool and said, "I went for a walk in the back mountain today and found a lot of medicinal materials.

Especially Panax notoginseng, there is a large group of them, most of which are over seven years old. They are big enough, and the small ones should be two or three years old. "

"What is Sanqi?"

Maizi was too busy helping kill pigs to drink water. At this time, he picked up the tea and took a sip. While drinking, he asked Li Mengyun.

Li Mengyun took a handkerchief next to her and handed it to him: "Wipe your sweat first."

Maizi casually took the handkerchief and wiped it.

Li Mengyun said: "Sanqi is a treasure all over the body, and it is a holy product for healing. It is like a knife injury caused by a bruise, and it is best used when there is blood stasis in the body."

He said with a big smile.

"I was at Dr. Feng's Huai'an Hall that day and found that there seemed to be no Panax notoginseng. Haha, people may not understand Panax notoginseng."

“If you don’t understand, how can people buy from us?”

Maizi took a sip of tea and asked Li Mengyun.

"When I use it and show it to them, they will definitely rush to buy it from us when they see the effect of the medicine."

Li Mengyun smiled and said, "It's not that I'm short of money. I don't want to sell it. I'll keep it for future prescriptions. I can use any amount."

Tiedan picked up a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp: "If the boss wants it, then I won't sell it and leave it all to the boss."

Li Mengyun flicked Tiedan's head and said: "Brother Tiedan, didn't I say that we are short of money now?

Dig some of it and sell it. There are plenty of them on the mountain. Then just leave some of it and don't dig it. I won't use that much. "

"Oh, that's fine."

Li Mengyun asked Maizi: "Brother Maizi, how are you preparing the things I want you to prepare?"

Maizi smiled and said, "Everything is ready. I also asked Ergou and a few of them to go down to the river and touch some of the river mussels. They took out the shells and washed them."

The straw, charcoal stove, and molds are also ready, waiting for you to teach everyone how to make them. "

Li Mengyun listened and clapped her hands: "Okay, then I will teach you how to make soap beans. Brother Tiedan, go and carry the things in on horseback."

Tiedan went out after hearing this.

With everything ready, Li Mengyun and the other three went to the open space in the backyard.

Li Mengyun found that the mussel shells were cleaned very clean and gave the wheat a thumbs up.

"Brother Maizi, you have to make a fire to crisp up the clam shells, scrape off the impurities on the surface, then crack them into pieces, grind them into powder, and put them in a basin for later use."

The three of them started working together, and soon they had three large pots full of clam shell powder.

Then Li Mengyun took the two of them to cut up the straw with scissors and put it into a pot to boil. It took about two cups of tea to boil the alkaline water.

Pour the alkaline water into the clam shell powder, stir evenly, and let it settle for half an hour.

Put the mixture into a gauze bag and filter it. This is the lye.

The two young men were quick with their hands and feet and worked with great enthusiasm.

Li Mengyun instructed them to cut the pork suet they bought into pieces, put them into a pot to boil out the oil, and then filter out the oil residue.

Tiedan looked at the fragrant lard residue and, not afraid of burning his hands, grabbed a piece and threw it into his mouth.

While chewing, he said, "Well, it smells so good. Boss and Brother Maizi, why don't you two have a piece?"

Li Mengyun and Maizi also tasted a piece. It was fragrant, crunchy, and really delicious.

Tiedan couldn't help but threw another piece into his mouth.

Li Mengyun looked at Tiedan's greedy look and couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, let's get down to business."

They were asked to pour the alkali-water mixture into lard and stir while pouring. Li Mengyun also added osmanthus to enhance the flavor.

Continue stirring and the saponification process gradually becomes thicker.

Ask them to put it into the mold made by Grandpa Tiedan and level it carefully.

Tiedan was doing it while clicking his tongue in wonder.

"Hey, I didn't even know it. It turns out that this is how soap beans are made. How come lard has a decontamination effect after being made in this way? It won't get dirtier with more washing, right?"

"Just trust me. Okay, let it solidify for an hour and then you can remove it from the mold.

Put it in a bamboo basket and put it in a ventilated place, let it slowly saponify, and then you can sell it. "

Maizi was also greatly surprised.

Li Mengyun remembered that the original owner had been poisoned, but he had not yet found out who this person was.

After thinking for a while, he said to them: "I will tell you this method of making money. You organize the villagers to help you do it.

However, there are many people with mixed opinions, so I hope you can keep a secret and keep one step private. "

Maizi and Tiedan nodded.

"Tomorrow we will take the villagers to the mountains to collect medicinal materials. After collecting some of them, we just need to dry them in the sun.

I also need to teach them how to prepare some medicinal materials. Only prepared medicinal materials can be sold at a good price."

Maizi and Tiedan nodded, both of them were full of energy for their future lives.

"Brother Maizi, you should be responsible for making the soap beans first, and Brother Tiedan, you should be responsible for collecting the medicinal materials.

I inspected the mountain and found no big beasts, but I took precautions just in case.

Sometimes I'm not free, so I'll feel more at ease if you're with me, Brother Tiedan. "

Tiedan nodded.

At this time, Xiaobao ran in to find Li Mengyun: "Sister, you have been discussing this matter for so long, are you okay? The wild boar meat has been divided."

Li Zhan also followed in.

Li Mengyun asked Xiaobao to sit next to her, while Maizi and Tiedan hurriedly offered their seats to Li Zhan.

"Uncle Zhan, come and have a cup of tea."

Maizi poured a cup of tea for Li Zhan and also for Xiaobao.

Li Mengyun rubbed Xiaobao's head and said, "It should be almost done. You have to wait for me. Sister will show you something later."

"What is it? Sister, can it be eaten?" Xiaobao was curious.

"Little greedy cat, if you didn't mention food, I would have forgotten about it. Come, come with me to eat something delicious."

The little BMW stood up and pulled Li Mengyun away.

Li Mengyun put a piece of oil residue into Xiaobao's mouth, and Xiaobao's eyes immediately lit up.

While chewing, he said: "Well, it's so fragrant, so crispy, and delicious. Dad, come on, you can eat a piece too."

Li Mengyun also took a piece and put it into her father's mouth, and Li Zhan chewed it.

Xiaobao asked: "Dad, is it delicious?"

Li Zhan nodded.

Li Mengyun asked Maizi to get a bowl and chopsticks, filled half the bowl for Xiaobao, and asked him to sit there and eat.

Xiaobao's little mouth bulged as he ate, like a little kangaroo.

Li Mengyun said: "The time is up, let's go take a look. Dad, are you coming?"

Li Zhan stood up and walked with the three of them to the eaves where the soap beans were placed.

I saw chunks of white and fat soap beans that had solidified in the mold and were ready to be demoulded.

All three were pleasantly surprised.

Tiedan took a piece in his hand, looked at it, smelled it, and jumped with joy.

He slapped his thighs and laughed wildly: "Haha, Zaodou, Zaodou, I love you so much. I really want to eat you in one bite, haha."

"Eat, eat." Li Mengyun looked at his silly look and said with a smile.
