A scholar becomes a landlord

After feeding the mule, he moved the things to the yard, where they should be placed. However, most of what he bought today were kitchen supplies, such as pots and pans.

In addition to the pottery bowls used by ordinary farmers, he also bought a whole set of better porcelain bowls.As a scholar, he probably would have some dignified guests in his family, so he couldn't bring pottery bowls to people's homes, right?At that time, the other party might think that he deliberately humiliated them.

This is the burden of his status. He has the status of a scholar, and his family business is not too bad, so the requirements are naturally much higher than others.But Wei Le will not despise the status of this scholar, if there is no status in ancient times, life will be sad.

Even though he only bought [-] acres of high-quality land, he doesn't have to pay taxes on these [-] acres!The produce in the field alone is enough for him to eat and use every year, and he can save a fortune.In addition, he didn't need to serve corvee, which saved a lot of money. Thinking about it, if he didn't have the status of this scholar, his life would not be so comfortable.

Although there are mules, when Wei Le returned home, it was almost clock time. It was too late for lunch and too early for dinner, so it was a bit strange not to be young.Wei Le didn't want to bother, so he just ate some dim sum and hot bone broth.

Dim sum is a bit choking, but soup is much better.Barely full, Wei Le started to wash and clean the pots and dishes he bought, and put them in the newly made cabinets in the kitchen.

In order to store things, the cabinet Wei Le made two people and some shelves.Although the floors of all his rooms are paved with bluestone slabs, they are not like modern times, and he is afraid of the tide if they are placed directly on the ground.

He put everything like rice flour directly in the big tank with a light wooden lid on it.

After Wei Le finished washing, dried them and put them in the cupboard, it was not too early.Then I started to make dinner, which was also simple. I mixed flour with warm water with salt, added eggs and kneaded it for a quarter of an hour, rolled it flat with a rolling pin, and cut it into strips with a knife. This became the simplest. handmade noodles.

I also fried the saozi with green vegetables and the large intestine that was salted yesterday, and added pickled peppers. This was a small jar given by the villagers when they ate.It happened to be used today. The large intestine was fried with pickled peppers. It was really delicious.

Then boil the water, throw the noodles into it and cook, scoop it up and put it in a big sea bowl, pour big bone broth on it, then scoop a few scoops of saozi, Wei Le put it in the kitchen directly on the stove The embers ate up.

"good to eat."

He learned this way of eating from his grandma when he was a child, but he didn’t expect that it tasted pretty good when he made it according to his memory.However, he thinks it should be due to the raw materials. Whether it is flour, eggs, big bone broth, large intestines, or pickled peppers, they are all green and pollution-free. Even the water tastes better than the water in the future.

With so many green foods added together, it's no wonder that they don't taste good.What's more, he is also willing to put oil in his cooking, and he won't just dip a little on the pot like ordinary farmers. It's a ghost if the taste is delicious!

After eating, I washed the bowl with hot water, but it still feels oily on the top, which is why lard is not good.So I rubbed it again with plant ash, and then cleaned it with water.Touch it again, it's no longer slippery.

It's really inconvenient not to have dish soap, Wei Lejing sits at the kitchen door and thinks about it, he remembers reading the recipe for manual cleaning on the Internet.It seems to be brown sugar, orange peel and water, the ratio is one to three to ten?

Even if there is no orange peel, other plant-based kitchen waste will do.Thinking of doing it, Wei Le took out a clay pot and started to make it. Anyway, he has a lot of plant waste in the kitchen, and Brown Sugar also has it in his house, not to mention clear water. There is a deep well in the yard.

Cut the kitchen scraps into pieces first, then put these things into clay pots according to the proportion, and then put the lid on and put it aside, just open it every few days and start to let the air out.Remember, you can't put it too full, about half of it is almost enough.

But when this thing is ready, it will be winter, because it takes a long time to ferment.But in general, it will be much more convenient for him to clean the pots and bowls after having this thing, and he is not afraid that it will contain harmful substances to the human body.

But since it is going to be done, of course it needs to be done a little more. He directly made two large clay pots, and made one pot after one pot was used up.

To make future dish soap, Wei Le went back to his room to boil water for a bath.The bathroom in each room is divided into two small rooms. The one with the bathtub has a large pot and a large bathtub in addition to the bathtub.The stove for boiling water is in another relatively small compartment, so that the water is directly boiled in the bathroom, and the whole bathroom is warm in winter.

This is what Wei Le thought of. Otherwise, with his little cleanliness, he could still endure it without washing for two days, and he would die in three or four days.

After boiling the hot water and mixing it with the cold water, after feeling that the water temperature was about the same, Wei Le climbed into the tub and soaked in the hot water, he sighed contentedly.

so cool~~

A hot towel was placed on his face, but it was a pity that he didn't know how to make handmade soap, otherwise he wouldn't have bought those soap balls, and it didn't feel that good even if it was expensive.

Heh heh, he'll have to endure it for a few more months. I remember it was said on the Internet that in addition to washing dishes, handmade cleaners can also be used for laundry, hair washing and bathing, and he is not worried about harming the skin.

Such a multi-functional cleaner is really a benefit for people who travel through time!You have to know how many people are convenient in this way, at least when you take a bath and wash your hair, you don't have to worry about it not being clean.

Tomorrow, I will use fruit as a cleanser for bathing and shampooing. After all, it is used on the body, so let’s forget about kitchen waste!

After taking a shower, I washed my clothes with the hot water left in the pot.If I don’t have washing powder, I just use soap balls. Anyway, I spent a lot of money. Do you still care about the money?No matter how you use it, it will only take two or three months. After two months, he will no longer have to spend money on these things.

Although brown sugar is also very expensive, please believe that it will definitely not be more expensive than soap balls.After all, one catty of brown sugar can make more than ten catties of detergent, which can be used for a long time.But the soap dough, which is about the same price as brown sugar, can be used for less than a month. Is there any need to say which one is more cost-effective?

Pull out the wooden plug at the bottom of the tub, and the water rushes down the pipe to the septic pit outside. Generally, any garbage in the house is poured into it, especially kitchen garbage and animal feces.When the farming is busy, these farmyard manures will come in handy.

This is really not a waste at all. Is there anything more environmentally friendly than this?Thinking of the food and vegetables made from pesticides and chemical fertilizers that the world will eat in the future, Wei Le said that it is God's blessing that he does not have cancer.

Although he was thrown into this ancient place where life was very inconvenient, in general, God still blessed him.At least it gave him a decent status.The concubine of the Hou family, as long as he doesn't provoke those who can't even be provoked by the Hou family, he can still scare many people away by using his identity occasionally.

Then again, as a scholar, he didn't buy much land, only [-] acres.There is no need to pay taxes, and the net income can support myself. In modern terms, the living conditions are a bit petty bourgeoisie.

Pens, inks, papers and inkstones, although these things are expensive, Wei Le doesn't need to be too good, ordinary ones are fine, and he only bought some agricultural books and travel notes for books, which didn't cost much.

In this way, his life is indeed quite good.In the future, he will think of other ways to earn some money and buy some land. Slowly, one day he will become a landlord.

As for why he didn't use the 1 taels of silver to buy a large piece of land, Wei Le said that he didn't want to be the first bird.If people know that he has a huge sum of money, he is really a fat sheep!Do not rob him who to rob?

A few hundred taels of silver is not too much for a scholar, and it is still within the acceptable range of everyone, but 1 taels of silver is an exception.

He even had a vague intuition that the 1 taels of silver would be of great use in the future, that Hou Mansion...

Lying on the bed, counting with your fingers.Recently, he has moved a few hundred taels from the 1 taels of silver, and he will make up for it when he has a chance.By the way, he still needs to get all the silver out of the bank. To be honest, he doesn't trust the bank.It is not state-owned, so the possibility of bankruptcy should not be too great~~

Fortunately, the banknotes he took were universal and could be received by any bank. In the future, he would go to a few more banks to get all the silver and hide it in the hidden wall he specially made to see who could find it and steal it.He also set a trap in the dark wall, and if you are not afraid of death, go ahead and steal it.He's been on the streets all the time and knows how easy it is to get dirty.

Mechanism technique, something that was almost lost in Wei Le's time, he managed to learn one and a half tricks by luck.

He learned this from an old beggar. At that time, seeing that he was about the same age as his deceased grandfather, he couldn't bear to give him a few meals, and finally learned the legendary trick.It's just that he thought it was useless at the time, so he only learned a little bit, and the old beggar didn't force him.

But he never thought that he could travel through time, and this trick would come in handy.

But at that time, he didn't study very seriously, he only knew some simple ones, and the only one that was a little more profound, so he set it up in the dark wall to protect the silver from being stolen.

But those simple tricks are not useless. Wei Le looked at the surrounding mountains, and the wild game in Dali seemed to be quite valuable.Digging pits and laying traps, mechanism skills will be used.

Go back and buy some game, even if you don't sell it for yourself.In modern times, if you want to eat a pheasant, you have to worry about it being protected. Unlike ancient times, as long as spring and summer are not the breeding seasons of animals, hunting in autumn and winter will not be a problem.

As for hunting in spring and summer, especially those with cubs, all hunters will be hostile to them.The knowledge and wisdom of ancient people should not be underestimated. They knew what sustainable development is.Although the truth told them to say it, they couldn't say it, but there must be nothing wrong with what the ancestors passed down.
