The Big Farmer of Time Traveling

Chapter 119 The Power of Money

Lin Xiazhi sent someone to buy Zhao's yuba and came back to taste it. After comparing it, he felt that the taste and texture of Linjiacun's yuba was better. He told Lizheng about this, so that Lizheng didn't have to worry too much, and he didn't need to lower the price of yuba. Come down, after a while, everyone will come back to buy it after discovering that the yuba tastes better in Linjiacun.

In this era, when machines are not used to replace labor, the cost of producing yuba is not low, and the output is limited.

Now that there is Zhao Yuanwai, there will be Zhang Yuanwai, Liu Yuanwai, and Li Yuanwai in the future. Jingguo is so big, and there are many other places where people have never eaten yuba. Besides Jingguo, there are other countries, maybe in the future The bean curd sticks from Linjia Village can be sold to other countries as a special product of Jingguo.

Therefore, instead of fighting a price war with other people's yuba, Lin Xiazhi thought it would be better for the villagers to study how to make yuba taste better.With more people making yuba, the yuba will naturally be sold to farther places.

At this time, Linjiacun made the bean curd sticks to high-end, and sold them exclusively to high-ranking officials and nobles, so they didn't worry about making money.

Li Zhengmao suddenly realized what Lin Xiazhi said, it seemed to be the truth!

Li Zheng was a little ashamed, he had spent all his life in vain all these years, and even an unmarried brother had a far-sighted view than him.

As for the future of yuba, Lin Xiazhi only mentioned a little bit. What will happen in the end depends on the efforts of the villagers themselves.How to improve yuba, how to find a market, these are not Lin Xiazhi's worries.

If he thought of everything for the people of Lin Family Village, the villagers might not only not appreciate him, but they would blame him for not making any money or making less money.

Although there is no need to worry about yuba for the time being, Lin Xiazhi still gave Doufang a new idea to make bean sticks.

To make bean sticks is actually similar to yuba. For yuba, you only need to pick up a layer of skin that has condensed on the surface of the soy milk. For bean sticks, you need to roll up the skin with a bamboo pole. One layer is not enough, and you need to roll a few more. layer, and then let dry.

The process of processing bean stems is more complicated than that of yuba. Both rolled bean stems and dried bean stems are particular. The taste of the finished product is very different from that of bean curd sticks. The bean stems are softer after soaking in water, and the bean stems are chewy even after soaking in water. Strength, each has its own merits.

Back then when making bean curd sticks, Lin Xiazhi and Lin Chengzu tested it at home and taught it to the villagers. Dougan didn’t get such a good treatment. Lin Xiazhi just dictated the general method to Lizheng, and let the people in Doufang Do your own research.

But in just three or four days, Lizheng came to Lin Xiazhi with the bean sticks made by Doufang: "Brother Xia, come and see if these are the bean sticks you mentioned?"

The power of money can always motivate people to develop their potential. If Lin Xiazhi proposed to let everyone study bean sticks when there is no crisis in the sales of yuba, it doesn’t mean that everyone doesn’t care about it, at least they won’t get the finished bean sticks so quickly. come out.

According to Lin Xiazhi's knowledge, bean poles must be wrapped with at least three layers of skin on bamboo poles, and each time they are wrapped, they must be dried. At this time, they should not be too dry or too wet. After the first layer of bean curd is cut, it will not be broken, let alone the third layer after the second layer.

Wait until the three layers of bean skin are all wrapped, and then take it to dry thoroughly.

Because bean curds have many layers, more attention should be paid to drying them. For example, the temperature of the charcoal fire and the ventilation of the room. The color and taste of bean stems that have not been mastered will be different.

Lin Xiazhi asked Qian to soak the bean stems sent by Doufang on the same day. After the bean stems were completely softened, cut them into small pieces and stir-fry the twice-cooked pork. The taste was not bad.

Linjiacun Doufang soon launched the product of bean stems. There were some unsalable bean curd sticks before, and the sales volume gradually increased as Lin Xiazhi said. With the addition of bean stems, the workers in the bean shop began to be very busy again. .

The third tofu house was full of recruited brothers and young husbands. At the beginning, they just had the mentality of giving it a try. When the men in the village are free, they still want them to work in the tofu workshop.

However, to Li Zheng's surprise, the quality of the yuba made by the brothers is not inferior to that made by the men, and the quantity is also quite a lot.

And when the yuba encountered a sales crisis, Lin Xiazhi suggested that the yuba could be improved.

When the men in the first bean shop and the second bean shop were at a loss, the brothers in the third bean shop gave him a surprise. The brothers and husbands in the third bean shop cherished this job very much. After the improvement, I racked my brains every day to think how to make the yuba better.

No one's wisdom should be underestimated, let alone a group of people who are determined to prove themselves.

They quickly researched a kind of yuba that is more chewy than ordinary yuba and has a cleaner color. At first glance, it will make people think that this yuba is more advanced.

Not only the bean curd sticks, but also the original bean stems are made by them.

In this way, it was impossible for Lizheng to ask to replace them with men, not to mention the huge role they played in Doufang now, even if they hadn't researched anything, Lizheng didn't dare to mention it casually.

Lin Xiazhi did not continue to pay attention to the development of the Doufang in Linjia Village, as long as they gave the Lin family their dividends every month.

Lin Xiazhi often runs to the county now, the main purpose is to chat with Yang Yusheng at his home.

Yang Yusheng is a tough and open-minded person. Lin Xiazhi feels very comfortable chatting with him, and his thoughts can finally be understood.

As for Yang Yusheng, his former friends were gradually alienated from him because of an accident in his family, Lin, who is about to get married, would occasionally feel a little restless, and Lin Xiazhi was also very welcome to chat with him.

Now that Lin Chengzu and Yang Yusheng are engaged, and they are about to get married soon, it is difficult for them to see each other again. Lin Xiazhi has become the microphone between the two, not only responsible for helping them give each other things, but also helping them deliver things. talk.

I don't know whether Lin Chengzu has opened his mind or someone behind him gave him advice. Sometimes what he said was quite standard. After Lin Xiazhi conveyed it to Yang Yusheng, Yang Yusheng would blush.

In the morning, Lin Chengzu's donkey cart came to Jiangning County, and he handed Lin Xiazhi the grass-woven grasshopper he brought to Yang Yusheng: "Brother Xia, I'm going back first, and I'll pick you up later when I come to deliver Liangpi and cold noodles at noon. "

Some of the things that Lin Chengzu gave to Yang Yusheng were made by him himself, such as this little grasshopper, which Lin Chengzu made himself out of the straw at home, and some that Lin Chengzu saw on the street and thought it would be suitable for Yang Yusheng to buy, maybe it was a silver hairpin. A hair accessory, maybe a fun little gadget.

Lin Xiazhi waved him away: "Okay brother, I know, this is not the first time, don't stand here, Brother Yusheng won't come out, you can't see him even if you see through the door."

Lin Chengzu also knew that he couldn't see Yang Yusheng, but he just wanted to stand here. If he stayed at the door for a while, he seemed to be closer to Yang Yusheng, but he was very happy in this way.

To be honest, Lin Xiazhi didn't quite understand their stickiness, after all, in Lin Xiazhi's view, both of them were "men", and in Lin Xiazhi's memory, Li Xiu and Lin Huzi were not like this.

After driving Lin Chengzu away, Lin Xiazhi knocked on the door of the Yang family.

Every time Lin Xiazhi came to Yang's house, he would be warmly received by Yang Fulang and Yang Yusheng.

Yang Yusheng already liked Lin Xiazhi, while Yang Fulang hoped that his child and his future husband's family could get along happily.

Because Yang Yusheng has to maintain his skin at home and make a wedding dress, Lin Xiazhi doesn't always stay with him at home every time he comes. He is not a person who can sit still, and he may stay for an hour and a half. , I couldn't help but ran out for a walk, and today is no exception.

Lin Xiazhi chatted with Yang Yusheng at Yang's house and watched him embroider. An hour later, he couldn't help but suggested again that he wanted to go out to play.

It wasn't the first time that such a thing happened, Yang Yusheng didn't pay much attention after hearing this, he just told him to be careful, he heard that the county has been a bit chaotic recently, and told Lin Xiazhi not to go to those dark alleys.

Because Yang Yusheng didn't go out much recently, he didn't know much about the outside situation. Fu Lang, who visited the house, mentioned that the chaos outside was more frequent than in previous years.

Lin Xiazhi readily agreed. He also knew that he was a brother now, and a vulnerable group in this dynasty. He usually paid more attention when going out, and only strolled on the street, or accompanied by family members.

After telling Yang Fulang, Lin Xiazhi left the Yang family.

Although there is nothing to go shopping in ancient times, even Jiangning County has only a few streets anyway.

Lin Xiazhi strolled around and even which store sold what, Yu Xi group basically remembered what the shopkeeper looked like, but shopping was already one of the few pleasures he had in ancient times, and he couldn't take it all Cancellation, it will be a surprise if you find something new while shopping.

Lin Xiazhi squatted down to choose from the stalls he often visited. Some things were not necessarily expensive but they were beautiful. Lin Xiazhi planned to buy some of the woodcarvings at the stall today for Li Xiu.

After choosing Lin for a while, Lin Xiazhi took two woodcarvings, one with a little rabbit and the other with a little tiger, representing Li Xiu and Lin Huzi respectively. It is made of old peach wood, it can be placed at home to ward off evil spirits and suppress disasters. Even though it is a little Guilin, Xia Zhi didn't hesitate to buy it with money.

After squatting for a long time and standing up, there will always be a moment of dizziness. Just at the moment when Lin Xiazhi was in a daze, he suddenly felt that he was hit by someone.

"Not good!" This scene was so familiar, Lin Xiazhi subconsciously touched his purse, and he met a thief.

When Lin Xiazhi came out with his purse to pay just now, he must have been watched by someone. Today he went out with more than a dozen taels of silver with him, all of which was in that purse.
