I really don't want to be a rebel [infrastructure]

After the baking is almost done, take a shallow wooden tray and put the beans in, compact them with stones to form bean cakes, and then press them.

To be honest, the step of squeezing is not easy to solve, because there needs to be enough pressure. For this reason, Cheng Jingwei specially found a big stone to perform physical squeezing. To be honest, the effect is actually mediocre.

It's not that the oil cannot be squeezed out, but in order to squeeze out more oil, only a small piece of bean cake can be squeezed out at a time.

But in any case, soybeans are really oily.

When the golden oil flowed out from the pores under the mortar, everyone stared straight at it, even Cheng Jingwei was a little surprised.

Luo Shixing heaved a sigh of relief. He only knew the steps of squeezing oil, but he had never done it himself. In the process, it was always at the next step that he realized that there seemed to be a lack of tools.

But Cheng Jingwei is better, he can bring people to help him solve problems every time.

It can be said that Cheng Jingwei has contributed a lot to being able to squeeze out the oil.

Luo Shixing pulled the wooden barrel out from under the stone mortar, glanced at the shallow layer of grease, smacked his lips and said, "The oil yield is indeed not high."

Originally, their soybeans were not a variety for oil extraction, and the methods were very backward, so they were lucky if they were willing to produce oil.

Cheng Jingwei also squatted beside him, took a closer look and said, "It's actually really oily."

When he said this, his tone was full of disbelief. Although he participated in the whole oil extraction process, but...plants can also produce oil, which can subvert his three views.

Luo Shixing patted him on the shoulder and smiled and said, "There are many things that can produce oil, but our craftsmanship still needs to be improved, otherwise it would be too wasteful."

Xiao Shanshi who was on the side couldn't help asking: "Can't the beans be eaten after the oil is squeezed?"

Luo Shixing thought for a while and said, "If you really don't have anything to eat, of course you can eat it, but you usually don't eat it. Well, it's good to feed pigs."

This seems to be a particularly fattening feed. Not to mention, if they can really improve the process and have enough soybeans for oil extraction, they can form a cycle.

The bean cake after oil extraction is used to feed the pigs, and the pigs grow up to provide them with meat. At the same time, the pig manure can also be used to ferment and grow soybeans, directly forming a cycle.

Luo Shixing laughed after thinking about it, Cheng Jingwei didn't know what he was thinking, and mistakenly thought that he laughed because he squeezed out the oil.

He got up and beckoned the slaves to continue squeezing the oil, only to find that the slaves who called to come over to do their work had already knelt down and kowtowed to Luo Shixing.

After reading it, Cheng Jingwei felt that he could somewhat understand them.

Even he was surprised that soybeans could extract oil, let alone these people.

Those people were still muttering words when they kowtowed, and Cheng Jingwei knew that these people must be praying to the God of Fire again or expressing their respect to Luo Shixing if he didn't listen.

At this moment, Alzhen's voice suddenly came over: "What are you doing?"

Luo Shixing turned his head and saw that Alezhen was walking into the yard with Wei Siwen, and it was Wang Antong who opened the door for him just now.

Well, probably only Wang Antong, who has no common sense in life, can't realize how shocking the soybean oil production is.

Cheng Jingwei said calmly with the idea that he couldn't be the only one surprised: "It's nothing, it's just that the lynx catkin squeezed oil out of soybeans just now."

Ale, who was walking over, was stunned for a moment, and almost knelt down to Luo Shixing on the spot because the body that was walking forward was frozen and couldn't keep his balance.

Fortunately, he supported Wang Antong next to him - originally he wanted to borrow strength from Wei Siwen, but he didn't expect that Wei Siwen was also there in a daze, and he was far away from him, so he only touched Wang Gouzi.

He supported Wang Gouzi and opened his eyes wide and asked, "What? What did you just say? Don't use Chinese."

In order to practice his elegant words, Alezhen communicated with Luo Shixing and the others in Chinese on weekdays. This was his own request, and Luo Shixing and the others were naturally happy to communicate in their mother tongue.

Oh, it wasn't Luo Shixing's mother tongue, but at least he spoke elegant dialect a little more smoothly than the local dialect.

At this time, Al really suspected that his elegant words were not good enough to understand the meaning of the other party, so he decided to ask Cheng Jingwei to speak again in the local language.

Cheng Jingwei pretended to be very calm and repeated, and Luo Shixing stood beside him with a smile and looked at Cheng Jingwei's pretending, tsk, it seemed that he wasn't the one who stared at You with a shocked face just now.

Al really didn't speak for a while, then turned his head to look at Wei Siwen, and said with a numb face: "Do you already have this kind of technology in Tang Dynasty?"

Wei Siwen also looked numb: "Don't ask me, I never heard that soybeans can extract oil in Datang."

Al really wiped his face and said, "Let me see."

The slaves kneeling on the ground immediately moved out of the way. Alzhen walked over to take a look. The oil in the wooden barrel hadn't been filled yet. To let him see it more clearly, Cheng Jingwei even took a spoonful of it with a wooden spoon. Show him the oil.

Although oil and water are both liquids, they are in different states, and ordinary people can easily distinguish them.

At least Al was able to tell the difference. He took a look to make sure he hadn't seen this kind of golden oil before, and then he looked at the bean cake in the stone mortar.

The bean cakes had been compacted, and he asked the slave to take out the bean cakes and break them into pieces, then twisted a small piece and smelled it, and indeed he could smell the bean flavor.

Then he went to look at the soybean oil, which also had a beany smell.

For a moment, Alzhen felt as if he was dreaming.

Soybeans can extract oil, what else can't be extracted?

He put down the spoon and turned to look at Luo Shixing and asked, "How do you know?"

Wei Siwen followed Alezhen to check the whole process just now, and he was sure that it was indeed soybean oil. Hearing Alezhen's question at this time, he couldn't help but look at Luo Shixing.

Luo Shixing blinked and said, "It was just when I saw Soybean that I came up with such an idea."

Cheng Jingwei couldn't help but close his eyes after hearing this, isn't this lie too careless?Just look at the soybeans and you'll have an idea of ​​what the hell it is.

Even if it is really a temporary idea, there must be a stage of exploration and experimentation, right?From the beginning to the end, Luo Shixing was obviously very determined to extract oil. Except for not preparing the tools in advance, he knew exactly what to do in all steps.

He didn't believe it when he said that he suddenly had this idea and tossed it out on his own.

However, Wei Siwen's reaction made him believe that Datang did not have such a way, and even in his previous life until his rebirth, he had never heard of such a thing as soybean oil.

Where did the little lynx know?

Is there really a Vulcan in this world?

Cheng Jingwei would think so, let alone Ah Lezhen.

Originally, Ale really had doubts about Luo Shixing's identity as the high priest, thinking it was a coincidence or something Luo Shixing had done.

It's just that it is beneficial for Luo Shixing to be the high priest, so he must have facilitated this matter.

As a result, he now has some doubts. Is Vulcan really awake?Was it the way Luo Shixing was told by Vulcan?

Ah Le really thought of this and couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Is it Vulcan..."

Luo Shixing glanced at him: "No, I figured it out myself."

He would rather pretend to be an inventor than let this kind of thing that can be explained by science be labeled as metaphysics. He said before that he would explain to Cheng Jingwei and others why soybeans can extract oil, and now he said it was the ability bestowed by Vulcan. Isn't it a slap in the face?

Ale really had a look of disbelief, and walked around the simple stone mortar twice before asking, "You guys use this thing to squeeze the oil?"

This is also a bit too fantasy.

Luo Shixing smiled: "Of course not, but I won't tell you the specific method."

He is very frank, and he must keep this method a secret. Anyway, even if soybeans can extract oil, ordinary people cannot afford this oil yield, so he might as well withhold the secret recipe and sell it for money.

The oil yield of soybean oil is indeed not high, but it is cheaper than vegetable oil for wealthy households.

There are not many pigs now, and the fat is all provided by chickens and ducks, but chickens and ducks also need fat to be delicious. This is a very embarrassing cycle.

The emergence of soybean oil should be able to break this cycle, and... produced by the high priest, many people should also need it to follow the trend, right?

After hearing what he said, Al really thought about it and immediately asked, "Sell it?"

Luo Shixing said: "If I can build an oil workshop, I will sell it, but the problem now is that I need to improve the procedures and tools."

Ale really rubbed his hands and said: "I don't ask to know any formula, can I bring a copy, brother?"

Wei Siwen on the side woke up at this time, and immediately said: "Da Ling, it is not easy for the two children to find a job, and you have a lot of things under your command, why bother?"

However, the question is when will the capital dislike their own money?

Although this era has not yet reached the era of capitalism, the ideas of rich people are basically the same.

Ah Le really coughed lightly and said, "Don't worry, I won't cheat brother, what do you want, brother will get it for you."

Luo Shixing turned his head to look at him, touched his chin and said, "If you want to buy shares, it's not impossible."

"Participation?" Ale was really puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Luo Shixing explained: "You pay a little money or the corresponding assets to occupy a certain proportion, and then the annual profit of the oil workshop will be distributed to you according to the proportion of your contribution."

Al really didn't understand at first, so he quickly said, "Wait, let me think about it."

Luo Shixing had no choice but to explain in a more simple and understandable way: "That's it. In this oil workshop, I will provide the technology, and then you will pay for the rest. You will get the rest, and then I will give you [-]% of the annual dividend."

Luo Shixing originally wanted to say that he would give [-]% of the annual dividends to Alezhen, technology shares and capital shares, but after thinking about it, he wanted to ask Alezhen for other things, so he simply became a black-hearted businessman once. Even if you contribute money and effort, you can only occupy [-]% of the shares.

Ale really can't do anything else, but he still has brains in business. After hearing this, he immediately shook his head: "No, no, [-]% is too little."

Cheng Jing on the side smiled and said: "Forget it, if there is no righteousness in the business, I can do it with the lynx cat."

Al was stunned on the spot, isn't this a business deal?Talking about business is about bargaining and bargaining. What do you mean by stopping directly?

Wei Siwen at the side glanced at him, and deeply felt that today's county magistrate has a brain hole - the method of extracting oil is in the hands of the lynx cat, and he is not short of money or people now, so why should he partner with you?Can't people do it themselves?

Al really realized this very quickly, and quickly said, "No, I mean, what do I need to do if I want to get more money?"

Luo Shixing touched his chin and said, "It's okay, just exchange it with something."

Al really knew that Luo Shixing had other purposes when he heard this, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "Okay, just say what you want."

Luo Shixing looked at him and said, "I heard that my brother has iron ore, so you can sell me some raw ore at a reasonable price."
