Infrastructure maniacs from the East

You never know when and in what way the surprise will appear——

Now Xu Tian's heart has been swamped by these words. He looked at a very familiar creature in front of him, and didn't know what to say for a while. Finally, he calmly watched the servant skillfully scoop up a scoop of boiling water. Give it a hard pour, and it's all over.

Xu Tian has seen this kind of creature before at his grandparents' house. It is commonly known as a slug, and its scientific name is a slug. When the lord saw it, he poured it with boiling water and poured cold water on it, and this mollusk would disappear from sight quickly.

But when Xu Zhiduoxing Tian saw it now, he thought of another kind of little thing that was very similar to it but had a shell, and he had raised it before: a snail.

The composition of snail shells is similar to that of seashells, so it is a good material for making lime. Although there is no cement here, there are a lot of snail shells. It is definitely not enough for building houses, but papermaking in Zanba Zanba should still be possible. .

Papermaking, Xu Tian couldn’t help but burst into tears when he thought of the paper in his memory. His parchment was on the verge of being damaged, and his buttocks were already tormented. Even if the leaves are fresh, soft and smooth, so what, can they compare to paper? ? !And the use of paper is not limited to this. Whether it is used as clothes, quilts, or even armor, the lightness, softness and firmness far exceed the quality of this era. It is just as versatile as bamboo!

Thanks to the slugs, their images are so disgusting, but they have given Lord Xu a great inspiration. If there is no accident, the castle will make another big step forward in the near future, and the living standards of the residents will be further improved. Even The noble lord no longer has to frown and wipe his buttocks with fresh leaves every day.

Thinking of this, Xu Tian suddenly stood up and began to move his feet quickly. Soon after, a strange order came from the castle-grain for snail shells and snails.

This strange job is followed by a series of restrictions, but this does not affect the joy and doubts of the free folk. After all, although it is convenient to dig medicinal herbs and wild vegetables, it is almost enough to dig in a safe zone after so long. I was frowning and didn't know what to do. The lord's order was the straw to save my life. Although I didn't know what the castle wanted these things for, it allowed them to continue to earn food.

The butler has become a fanatical believer of the Great Demon King Xu, but he still can’t understand many things the lord does, such as Xu Tian’s inexplicable order to buy snails—what does the lord want this useless thing, even the shell, Yes or no…

The servants in the castle couldn't figure out what the lord was thinking, but no one dared to ask. Although Xu Tian was not very angry or even quite gentle, he didn't know what was going on. Everyone subconsciously talked to the lord. Keeping a distance, but those who have really approached the lord will be envied by all the servants, and those who can say a few words will instantly become the focus of attention. This situation is also quite strange.

If you dare not approach and are curious, you can only rely on guesswork. The servants have different opinions and finally come to a seemingly reliable conclusion: the hometown of the lord can make snails into delicious food!

This guess is not unfounded. After all, the previous worms, acorns, and beans were all made into delicious food that the lord could never imagine, especially the beans. Others can be seen how they were made, but the beans turned into bean curds. Tofu and dried tofu are like magic. Didn’t you see that people who didn’t believe that the lord was a god shut their stinking mouths after seeing tofu?

Oh, by the way, I can't say it's bad mouth now. After all, everyone has a good habit of brushing their teeth now. After a while, the effect is still obvious, but it still can't be compared with the lord.

Strange to say, although brushing teeth with precious salt is considered a luxury by everyone, and many people feel it is very uncomfortable, but after persisting for a period of time, not brushing teeth in the morning seems like something is missing, and I am not used to it.

In the eyes of the servants, it is unbelievable that snails can be made into delicious food. In fact, no one dares to eat snails in this era, because people who have eaten snails have inexplicable headaches or strange diseases, and finally died in agony. In modern inspections, it will be found that there are a lot of germs and parasites on them, but in this era, people have only one thought: the curse of the devil.

Well, it’s the devil again. Xu Tian doesn’t want to complain about it anymore. All the unlucky things in this era can be blamed on the devil. If someone falls down, there is a famine, and there is a war. In short, there must be nothing wrong with blaming the devil. As for others Yeah...well, the kid in the king's new clothes who yelled the truth ended up in a mental institution and wasn't released until he learned to lie, you think smart people in this day and age haven't figured out even the rudimentary principles of physics and chemistry What will happen?

The sky does not give birth to Zhongni, and eternity is like a long night.

Although the modern Confucius and Mencius theory is dismissed as dross by many people, you have to admit that there must be some reason for the long-term existence of a certain theory. Anyway, when you accept how bad the independent thinking ability of people here is, Xu Tian had already awakened, and crazily praised the sages who planted flowers and ancient education, and finally sighed again for his tragic fate.

But since then, Lord Xu has never been angry with these people's stupid and ridiculous behaviors. After all, if you argue with an idiot, you will only be pulled down to the level of an idiot and defeated by their rich experience, no matter what So, in short, Lord Xu will not try to communicate with them on an equal footing before they have basic literary literacy, and will no longer try to let everyone know what it is and why it is. On to the butler.

The topic seems to be far away, let's go back to the present - the craze for catching snails has started vigorously, and adults with a certain ability to work are not allowed to participate, but this does not prevent them from being careful when working. Twist the snails and put them aside, and let your own children or women exchange for food when you reach a certain amount. This is within the scope of labor, so the supervisors do not reprimand them, and they are still silently expecting what the lord will make delicious. come out.

Everyone seemed to agree that Xu Tian wanted snails for food.

Snails are a very annoying creature here. They will eat the living rations but cannot be regarded as food. After the farmers find out, they will usually be pulled off and turned into an unknown object, or buried in the soil into nourishment.

There are very few people who raise chickens here, because there are too many diseases caused by filth. Nine out of ten chickens cannot survive, and the ones that survive become super species that eat whatever they see. Snails and other bugs, but they also like fresh vegetable leaves, so people generally don’t put them in the vegetable field, and don’t feed them specially. The grass seeds and bugs in the wild are enough to fill their stomachs .

In fact, Xu Tian really just wanted snail shells very simply, and the snail meat was just a by-product, but after coming to this world, he developed a problem of careful calculation and thought of modern white jade snails... and then they should have been in salt water. He went into the kitchen... and was invited out helplessly, which made the servants feel very sorry, but only the housekeeper noticed Lord Xu's solemn expression and disgusted attitude.

Delicious and nutritious snail meat is no longer available, and Xu Tian will not let his servants eat them—there is basically no treatment for parasites in this era, and the large African snails in previous lives are still infected even if they are fully cooked Risk, Lord Xu's mind is still good, and he will not make his subjects sick for a little profit.

After the snails are collected, they will be processed centrally... In fact, it is burning and burning. This method is simple and crude but effective. As for cruelty... Hehe, don't you think it is ridiculous to say cruelty after throwing Lao Tzu into this world!

Xu Tian didn't make too many preparations. He just threw these snails and their shells into the fire while cooking. There are not many iron pans and many clay pots. Once the fire is fired, the effect is excellent. I saw a lot of white fragments, picked them out and threw them into the water to form an exothermic reaction, then it was lime slurry, and it was officially done after the lime was dried.

The number of snails is really beyond Xu Tian's expectation. All of them have big shells and lots of meat. They look delicious, but Lord Xu dare not eat any kind of familiar snails due to the strike identification technique. After all, the small bottle containing the blue shiitake mushrooms is still in his arms, and there is not even a cure for the parasite infection.

Lord Xu, who is in a depressed mood, would occasionally lament the delicacy and danger of snails, and then the gluttonous butler quietly spread them out, letting everyone feel the pain of not being able to eat delicious food...

Everyone who can't see it: ...

After several years, someone was finally tempted by the delicacy of the snail. After many experiments, he resolutely ate the snail. Fortunately, he picked out a non-toxic species, so he survived successfully. , and told everyone what snails are edible with his own personal experience, and built a large tile-roofed house with green bricks by relying on snail-catching skills, and lived a prosperous life with his wife and children.

People are very envious of this person, and this story spread more and more widely, so there is the story and description of "the first person to eat snails".

In a later era, non-toxic snail species were gradually identified by people, and snail farming became a channel for getting rich.

The author has something to say: small theater management · I have heard the delicacy of snails · home: I can't let me be greedy alone!

Crowd: ...

Originally, I wanted to write about how to make snails, but suddenly I thought of the prohibition order for wild game... I cowardly took back the jio that was just around the corner, so everyone can understand it (dog head saves life)
