National teacher, your man ran away

The oily spicy peppers are still very fast to make. Yao Yixin thought that his family might supply a large amount of this convenient and quick sauce for dinner in the future, so he asked Uncle Niu to go to the next village to order five large millstones, and put them in his yard. They lined up and temporarily set up an open-air mill.

It took 30 Wen per day to hire a few strong men from the village to help grind the grinder, and within two days, the coarse-grained chili powder and fine-grained chili noodles needed for making oily peppercorns were finished. Yes, the Chinese prickly ash and star anise used as ingredients are also ground for later use. In order to increase the taste, Yao Yixin also added fried and ground peanuts and sesame seeds to it.

Two days later, the kiln factory sent samples over, Yao Yixin looked at it, and asked them to add an extra lid, negotiated the price, and asked the kiln factory to hurry up and burn it out, and then began to organize everyone to make it together Spicy peppers.

Mix the two types of chili powder, thick and fine, and then add finely ground coarse salt and old ginger powder. After stirring well, put it in a large earthenware pot resistant to high temperature.Then, Uncle Muchai heated up the hot oil in the pot, and poured spoonfuls of it on the minced chili peppers. Immediately, a spicy aroma came out. When the hot oil was boiling, Uncle Muchai hurriedly took out the special long chopsticks , add some mature vinegar to the spicy oil, and stir it quickly, so that it can be packed and packaged after it has been left to cool.

Because of the business of the Yao family, people inside and outside the Yao family village are very happy recently, especially the tenant farmers, who originally thought that the money they made from catching rice chickens was a reward from the young master of the Yao family. behind!

Because there was not enough manpower in the family to make oily and spicy peppers, Yao Yixin asked Granny Huang to come forward and help pick a dozen quick and hard-working tenant farmers on the other side of the river to help grind, wash peppers, dry them, and put them in cans. He was not afraid of this. He has learned the craft from others, and there are so many businesses in the world, he can't do it alone, so he might as well give others some ways to make a fortune, as long as he holds the orders from his family's farm and military camp, he can earn [-]% a year It was more than enough for him to feed his large family.

However, he never imagined that no family in the village would dare to try the secret recipe for making spicy peppercorns that he "deliberately leaked out"!At this time, a villager who was a helper found him, and said that he also wanted to buy two cans of spicy oil for dinner. Only then did he know that these villagers dare not make spicy oil at home!

"It's not difficult to make this oily hot pepper, and the ingredients are simple, so you can make it yourself at home." Yao Yixin tried to inspire them.

"This is impossible!" Among the helpers, an older man blushed and waved his hands again and again, "The two elders of the Yao family have protected our Yao family village for generations, and now, young master, you let us help, and we also take care of the food and ask for wages It should not be, how can you steal the spicy oil recipe from the Yao family again? If the clan elders find out, they will have to break their legs and drive them out of the family tree!"

"Okay, I got it, you don't need to panic, I'm not trying to test you, from now on, you don't have to say this kind of thing again." After hearing these words, Yao Yixin was also full of emotions, and she could only say that the people of this time and space It's so simple, intellectual copyright is almost like a moral bottom line, firmly engraved in everyone's heart, and those who have been pirated have not yet appealed, and they themselves start to feel uneasy.

"When everyone comes to work tomorrow, each of them will bring a jar. After cooking the oily and spicy peppers for so long, my boss will share some with everyone, so that everyone in the family can taste the taste!"

"Also, after winter, our Yao family will open a workshop in the village, specializing in making this oily and spicy rice. Everyone can ask their family members when they go back. If they are willing, each family can arrange 1 or 2 people to work in the workshop. There are 4 days off every month, and the wages are calculated at 900 Wen per month, and there will be extra rewards for staying up late to catch up with work, and anyone who is willing can sign up with Director Bai."

"Also, my workshop is for food, so if you are sick or have some infectious disease, don't come to sign up. When we recruit workers, we will have a medical examination. Only those who are in good health Come to work."

"It's just that I don't know the age..." someone in the crowd asked.

"You can be over ten years old or under 50 years old." Yao Yixin patiently explained, "It doesn't matter if you are old or not. You see, our workshop needs a lot of this kind of red pepper. I see the mountainous area over there. There are quite a lot. Next year, everyone might as well open some mountain land in front of and behind the houses to grow this kind of long red pepper. The seeds can be collected at Yao's house, and they don't need money. The red peppers grown out can be sold to the workshop after drying. Is it an income? It’s easy work, and the elderly and children in the family can do it.”

"That's a good idea! Besides, there is no need to pay taxes for reclamation of the mountain land, and it only takes a little effort to take care of it. Isn't it a waste of money?" Some people in the crowd began to get excited.

"That's right! Last year, a piece of land was opened in the back of my house. I originally planted corn, but the monkeys on the mountain watched it. The corn has been fed to the monkeys throughout the year, and I almost didn't even get back the cost! If I planted this chili pepper That’s enough, monkeys don’t like chili peppers!”

"Exactly! The wild things in the mountains don't eat this! I saw a few wild peppers in the mountains the year before last, and the big red peppers on them were mature red peppers, and there were no wild things to eat them at all. , even the birds won’t eat them.”

The more people talked, the happier they were, and they had turned the topic to how much mountain land they could reclaim.

Yao Yixin smiled and waved to Bai Shisan, Bai Shisan understood, silently took out the pen and paper he carried with him, and wrote down the names of the people who were about to sign up to work in the workshop.

The next day, all the helpers brought a jar to hold the oily and spicy peppers. However, these villagers are not the kind to take advantage of the brazenness. When they came, they all carried some local specialties in their hands. The money for chili oil, some are a basket of fresh edamame, some are two big green gourds, some are a few eggs, Yao Yixin also ordered someone to accept them, and smiled and asked everyone to exchange them after eating. There are no copper coins, so go to the fields to catch them. Some wild animals, some snails can also be picked up.

He can see that the villagers here don't like to take advantage of others. After taking an egg from someone else's house, they can't wait to return a handful of yellow rice. The original transaction of "bartering" began.

When I returned to my hometown this year, I had already missed the planting season of edamame. This was the first time Yao Yixin ate fresh edamame. After thinking about it, Yao Yixin decided to make a dish of salted edamame. He hadn't eaten this dish for a long time.

The method of salted edamame is very easy, that is, wash the fresh edamame just picked off, cut off the ends, put it into the pot, add water, boil on high heat, then add coarse salt and a little pepper, turn to low heat and cook until it tastes good .

It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten such an original farm food. At noon, Yao Yixin and Grandpa Zhu had a plate of salted edamame in front of them, happily squeezing the edamame rice in it. The edamame with tender beans was not plump enough, but It is this kind of edamame that is most suitable for making salted edamame. Grandpa Zhu ate and drank wine, and after the meal, Yao Yixin asked Yao Yixin to follow him back to the house.

"Grandpa Zhu, what do you need from me?"

"This is my family's ten acres of land. Let them plant edamame for me next year." Grandpa Zhu reached out and threw a land deed into Yao Yixin's arms.

"Oh, my grandpa Zhu, there is only so much edamame. How can you need ten acres of land? You are still a high-quality fertile land!" Yao Yixin grabbed the land deed dumbfounded, but did not return it. "I know you are impatient to take care of these things." Ordinary matter, so, if you believe me, I will take care of the ten acres of land for you, and keep the edamame you eat every year, whether it is enough or not, and there will be some other delicious food, what do you think?"

After hearing this sentence, Grandpa Zhu finally showed a satisfied expression of "you are a smart boy", and waved him to step back, so as not to disturb his old man's afternoon nap.

Yao Yixin sensibly returned the room to Grandpa Zhu, and calculated the time. In fact, it is not impossible to plant beans at this time, but they will not mature until after autumn.

However, he doesn’t necessarily want fully mature soybeans. Plant them now, and when the autumn harvest comes, the edamame will be on the market. You know, a braised meat shop can sell not only meat, but also side dishes such as salted edamame and fried peanuts. It's selling well.

Since he plans to open a shop selling lo mei by the pier, these best-selling dishes are indispensable, especially the salted edamame, which is cheap and suitable for drinking, not to mention the passing passenger ships, just the ones working on the pier Workers are a huge source of customers. At that time, his soybeans will only worry about not being able to sell, and they will never rot in the field because they cannot grow into mature soybeans.

This is also due to the living habits of this time and space. Everyone thinks that crops must be ripe before they can be eaten.As everyone knows, some vegetables are only delicious when they are tender, such as edamame and broad beans.

Moreover, he decided to grow beans, another main reason is that he can use all the deserted ridges on the farm. Soybean crops, Yao Yixin and the others in his previous life, rarely had dedicated land for planting. , They poke a few holes on the ridge of the field, sprinkle some fertilizer, and plant a few trees. They can grow well by themselves without careful management. They don't take up land, and they can add a dish to the family.

Moreover, soybeans can not only pick edamame to eat, but also mature soybeans can be squeezed for oil, made tofu, dried bean curd and so on.If you can't finish it, you can also crush it into soybean meal.Chickens, pigs, and fish fed soymeal would quickly fatten up and be used on the farm without any waste.
