God don't even try to stop me from doing infrastructure!

"Your Highness, we have arrived." The northern kingdom's mission from the farthest distance has also arrived, and the missions are the second prince Jeraf and the seventh prince Yihuus from the northern kingdom. Jeraf is the principal, and Yihuus is the incidental recommendation.

Although Beiguo is xenophobic, it is still very greedy for the high-yielding grain varieties.After the king of the northern kingdom knew about it, he wanted to buy some brazenly. Of course, he also knew that the greedy king Taixi would definitely eat a piece of his meat, but he had to do so.

A little knowledgeable monarch knows that the output of food determines how many people a country can support, and the population of a country determines the number of troops.The number of troops determines the strength of a country.

Therefore, food is a strong guarantee for a country.

Of course, they can also seek privately instead of buying, but this method can only get a small amount of grain seeds, and it will take at least three to five years to expand the planting.In the past three to five years, people may have achieved food and clothing for the whole people, and may have trained a heroic army.

Now the North Country still has an advantage over Taixi, because their land does not border each other, but they face each other across an inland sea.The navy of the North Kingdom is very strong, and the Taixi Navy is far from being an opponent.

But without Taixi, there are other countries, let alone Misa, which is both an island country and a country with a strong navy. It is a huge threat to the Northland.

At this moment, the messenger of Misa also came.The King of the North wanted to continue to maintain this advantage and dominate the surrounding countries, so he wanted this kind of grain.

The main mission of the Beiguo envoys is to exchange for grain seeds. If possible, it is best to take that magical Taixi god son away.If you can't take it away, you will destroy it.

Even if he does not belong to himself, he cannot be allowed to belong to the enemy country.

None of the monarchs who can establish and stabilize a powerful empire in this chaotic era is simple.

The North King and Taixi King despise each other across the sea, but they will never really underestimate their opponents.The King of the North already felt that the God Son of Taixi, who was helping King Taixi, would be a huge obstacle to the North Kingdom, so he gave the mission such an order, if there is a chance, take it away, if you can't take it away, kill it.

On Taixi's side, he judged others by himself, and felt that if he changed himself, he would definitely take away or kill the Son of God, so they strengthened the team to protect the Son of God.

The second prince Geraf, who was raised as the heir, can fully understand his father's thoughts.If it was left to Geraf to choose, he would have the same thoughts and countermeasures.

But for Yi Hughes, going to see Yunze is more important to him than the task assigned by his father.He wanted to make a break with his strange thoughts that appeared from time to time.One of them was Prince Bei, and the other was God Son Taixi. He was crazy to think that God Son Taixi would be a special existence.

See you again, and give up completely.

Ma Manlin was also in the mission team this time, and she tried every means to get into the team this time.She never thought of using her fellow countrymen to threaten or gain benefits. Ma Manlin herself is a selfish person.She thought about it carefully, if someone came up to her and claimed to be a fellow, she would definitely attack secretly.Then it's the same when it comes to Yunze, no one can bear to have their own specialness being divided.

But Ma Manlin came anyway, and she wanted to know what happened, which made the plot take a completely different branch line.

Yunze sneezed, he wiped his nose with a handkerchief, and looked up at the sky: "It's getting colder."

He was in the palace, teaching the envoys of the subject countries how to make shea butter.After Taixi King ate a large piece of land, he "showed mercy" and allowed the envoys of the dependent country to learn this skill from the kingdom of God, extracting edible and skin-care vegetable oil from the fruit pit.

Without waiting for the approval of the country, the envoys of the dependent country, the ministers and the prince signed an agreement to cede a piece of land connected to the Taixi country, and learn this skill that can strengthen the country's economy.

The land was on the side of the mountain range, and it was originally close to Taixi. There was no arable land, and no one lived there, so it was given away without caring.

King Taixi was very generous: "Didn't Son of God want to grow things in a warm and humid place? I will give you half of this land, and you can grow whatever you want."

The king is so generous, Yunze is naturally not stingy, he said that he can plant the king's half of the land together, and he provides seeds and saplings.Yunze has already thought about what to plant, planting temperate tropical fruit trees and sugar cane.

Although beets can also be used to make sugar, but when it comes to sugar that is popular in later generations, it really has to be sucrose.

It was the women in the mission who learned how to make shea butter, their wives, daughters and maids.It was the first time for women in this small country to see a stone mill, and they were amazed. After knowing that the stone mill was mainly used for grinding flour, a minister's wife immediately said that she must bring the stone mill back to the country.

Yunze asked them to watch it first, then he guided them to make it, and finally asked them to make it themselves without guidance.

The last time there was a little failure. The quality of the oil that came out was not particularly good. Yunze looked at it and said it was a problem with the temperature.

After the shea nuts are crushed into powder, they should be evenly heated, but the temperature should not be too high, and it is best to keep it below [-] degrees.He chose to place the powder in a sealed drum, with a fire underneath and a constant rolling on top, just like modern roasted peanuts.The roasted powder has to be ground again to make it finer, then add warm water and stir, and stir evenly over and over again, and the oil will slowly come out.

After discovering the problem, the women of the mission tried two more times, and both times they succeeded, they were so happy that they almost cheered.

Yunze told them that this white oil can nourish the skin. It can prevent skin dryness and chapping in winter, it can prevent sun protection in summer, and it can reduce wrinkles and prevent pigmentation in daily use... Anyway, it is very useful.Yunze recommends that they apply shea butter to their body and hair after washing and bathing with cleansing cream.And this oil can be stored in a cool and dry environment for one to two years.

The mission was so excited, they immediately tried the method Yunze said, and the next day, their skin was as smooth as fat, and their hair was also very smooth.So these missions immediately purchased a large amount of handmade soap and prepared to bring it back to China for matching use.

In the process of buying handmade soap, they discovered cosmetics... No one can escape the temptation of this bright color.

So before I knew it, I bought a handmade soap, which works especially well with shea butter, just like skin care water and mask paper, a perfect match.I bought cosmetics, such a beautiful color, and skin care, and it is a special product of Taixi, which cannot be bought elsewhere, so how can I not buy it?If you don’t buy one or two special products of Taixi, how can you count as having been to Taixi?

I bought all of these, but how could I not buy the necessities of medicine and the miraculous pain-relieving plaster?

The money was spent like water, and the emissary thought of the large amount of shea nuts in the country, so he could not bear the pain to pay the bill.

Shea nuts used to be discarded, but now they are used to produce oil as valuable as olive oil.Then their country has a special thing that can bring wealth.

If you can learn such a skill, even if you give away a piece of uninhabited land, the mission still thinks it is very worthwhile.

The prince of the country in charge of this agreement has sent a letter to the country to inform the country of this matter.

Before the mission thanked them farewell, Yunze once again emphasized that shea nuts are goddess fruits, and the goddess of shea nuts is the goddess who protects women, so women are required to pick and make them.In addition, the goddess of shea butter can feel the happiness and pain of women, so don't let circumcised women pick and make them, the pain they suffer will be perceived by the goddess, the goddess will be angry, and the quality of shea butter will change. Difference.

Humans are selfish animals, and most men don't feel the pain of women, but if they are told that doing so will reduce their gains, this part of men will stop hurting women's bodies.

No one would believe Yunze's words in modern times, but he is now in a barbaric era, women in this era are already responsible for tedious work such as collecting and weaving, and he is the son of God, so they will not easily doubt his words.And from the point of view of interests, as a high-ranking man, there is absolutely no need for Yunze to tell such lies.

The officials and princes of this small country immediately believed it.

After they go back, circumcision may not disappear immediately, but it will definitely decrease slowly, because they need money, they need shea butter.

Menis and the others also believed it, and they were curious, whether there are goddess fruits that must be collected by women, and whether there are male god fruits that must be collected by men.Yunze wanted to say no, but he thought of his plan to plant sugar cane on a large scale.Sugar cane is also a cash crop that can bring a lot of wealth, and both planting sugar cane and crushing sugar require physical strength, so he said: "Yes, a plant that can produce a large amount of honey, sugar cane."

Mass production of honey?

This description makes my heart beat faster.

Cane sugar can bring huge profits. Anyone who knows a little bit of history knows that the profits of sucrose allow businessmen to buy plantations in large quantities. After buying plantations, they buy cheap labor, that is, black slaves, and then the slave trade occurs. Sugar Triangle.

Merchants bought slaves to plant and crush sugar cane, and then they made bagasse into rum, so that merchants had very cheap cane sugar and rum, and they sold sugar and rum to the African continent at a high price, and then bought more from Africa Lots of cheap slaves.Because of high-intensity labor, slaves will die in large numbers. This is a black cycle, a human flesh mill.

When he is free, Yunze will go there in person. Sugar cane still needs to be planted, but he cannot gain benefits at the cost of his life.Anyway, the Son of God doesn't see suffering in his nature. Isn't it natural for him to want to improve the treatment of growers?

Making sugarcane juice into a lump of sugar, which is then decolorized into white sugar, requires several steps.If it is well concealed, the mystery cannot be deciphered within a few years.But for a maximum of ten years, things like sugar making methods and sugar cane will spread.People in the place of origin have mastered the sugar-making technology, and sugar flows into thousands of households. It will not be so easy to monopolize and make huge profits.

Yunze thought very far, but there is really a batch of sugar that needs to be extracted, and that is the sugar in beetroot.The beets need to be julienned, plenty of hot water is added to seep out the sugar, the juice is strained, then lime is added to remove excess water and help the final syrup crystallize.

The following process is similar to that of making sucrose. You can add appropriate amount of yellow mud and mix it for decolorization, and then boil it.When the sugar has become viscous, wrap it up and squeeze to remove the water, then put the syrup in a funnel-shaped jar with a pointed opening at the bottom, plug it with straw, and wait for the syrup to crystallize naturally.

This is an 'ancient sugar making' technique mentioned in the chef's cheat book.

The finished product is not quite the same as modern white sugar. The sugar collected at the top is already snow-white, but the middle layer is yellowish transparent crystals, and the lower layer is inferior sugar with more mixed colors.

"We use the white sugar for our own use, and the middle and bottom sugar can be sold for sale. The price is tiered, and the poor can afford it." Yunze happily told Menis and others with the finished product.
