Chapter 183 Potato Harvest
"Why don't you sell me the fish in this lake, and I'll help you publicize it in Jufulou, let more people know that the fish in Hehua Biezhuang eat lotus, and help you make Mr. Zheng famous." Cheng Wenliu ate With the steamed lotus fish, Zheng Qianyuan suggested that Zheng Qianyuan sell him the fish.
"Don't even think about it. These fish are my father's treasure. It's okay to invite friends to eat a few on weekdays. If I let him know that I dare to sell them, then I will be miserable." Zheng Qianyuan was not at all tempted.
"Not everyone can eat it, only my distinguished guests in Jufulou are willing to spend a lot of money, and they can't eat a few fish." Cheng Wenliu continued.
"no!"
……
After eating and rowing around the lake, Cheng Wenliu had to take his two brothers back to Jiangning County, and he couldn't play until too late.
It was the first time for Lin Xiazhi to travel to Jingguo for so long, and it was the first time he came out to play. He was about to leave in high spirits, and when he got off the boat, his pace slowed down a bit.
The same is true for Cheng Luanjing. When he left, he turned his head every three steps, and almost had reluctance written on his face.
Zheng Qianyuan stood at the gate of Biezhuang to send them off: "Next time I'm free, I'll ask Wen Liu to bring you here."
"My second brother, if he hadn't brought brother Xia here this time, he wouldn't be free." Cheng Luanjing bluntly dismantled the stage, expressing his dissatisfaction with Cheng Wenliu's emphasis on sex over his younger brother.
Zheng Qianyuan laughed twice: "Wen Liu, you heard it now, you should bring Brother Jing out to play more in the future, and Brother Xia, when you get married, we will make an outing when you have time. There are many places in Liaotai County The scenery in spring is nice.”
"Don't worry, next time I go to Liaotai County, I will definitely bring Brother Xia with me." Cheng Wenliu smiled, "As for Brother Jing, that is to say, if I really take him out often, I'm afraid he will still treat you. I have an opinion, after all, he now spends a lot of time writing scripts every day."
"Oh, what script is Jing Geer writing?" Zheng Qianyuan became interested.
"You don't read the script, so it's useless to talk to you." Cheng Luanjing's face turned red, as if he was embarrassed.
Zheng Qianyuan treats Cheng Luanjing just like he treats his younger brother, if he sees that he is embarrassed, he will not tease him, in case he gets angry later, it will not be easy to coax him.
Lin Xiazhi's performance has always been quite generous, no matter what they said about getting married, or going out to play, he never showed shyness.
Cheng Wenliu was a little surprised in his heart, but the last time they met at Yiyang Eat More, they felt a little bit less awkward and shy on Xia Geer, which made him feel good and a little disappointed. It's a way to tease Brother Xia.
After July, the weather became too hot for people to wear long sleeves. The main reason is that this year it was hot early and the air humidity in the south was high. Whenever the sun evaporated after it rained, people felt uncomfortable as if they were in a steamer.
Lin Xiazhi sent someone to ask Cheng Wenliu if their house had enough ice, and Cheng Wenliu answered truthfully that it should not be enough.
The Cheng family's Zhuangzi on the mountain has also become hotter. This year's ice is not as well preserved as last year's. Now it has melted by more than half, and I am afraid it can barely survive July.
Lin Xiazhi thought for a while, and gave Cheng Wenliu the recipe for making ice with saltpeter, and asked him to use it.
The cost of making ice with saltpeter is low. After the ice made of saltpeter melts, the water is exposed to the sun. After the water vapor evaporates with high temperature, what is left is saltpeter, which can continue to be used to make ice.
Putting an ice clay pot in the room can cool down the temperature of the whole room, and you can also make edible ice by the way, which can be used by both the Cheng family and the Jufu building.
After Cheng Wenliu got the prescription, he asked Cheng Ping to take a trustworthy person to buy saltpeter from other places and come back. He used ice basins in every Jufulou, and immediately raised the business that Jufulou had declined due to the hot weather. .
Those guests who came to Jufulou for dinner said that Jufulou was willing to spend the capital and used the whole building in an ice basin. They would not sweat profusely when they came to eat, and they felt much better, and they were reluctant to leave.
Lin Xiazhi didn't care how Cheng Wenliu used the ice-making recipe he gave, because the Lin family was busy harvesting a new round of potatoes at this time, and his golden finger changed at some point.
Goldfinger's description of seed yield has changed from simple and crude low-yield, medium-yield, and high-yield to specific values. The yield value of the seeds marked high-yield before is only a pitiful [-] or so.
Lin Xiazhi was a little surprised when he saw it for the first time. How come the high-yield seeds had an output value of only [-], but he thought about the yield of those crops in his previous life, and he felt that it made sense. Just relying on the seeds to mutate themselves would not increase the yield much. Still have to rely on cross-breeding ah.
Eat one bite at a time, the road has to go step by step, there is no rush, wait until the higher-ups start to implement two crops of rice a year before mentioning hybridization.
After more than three months of raising the rabbits of the tenant farmers of the Qin family, the scale has now expanded to two hundred, but most of them are small rabbits.
The first batch of female rabbits gave birth to many baby rabbits. Lao Qintou caught ten fully grown rabbits and brought them to Lin Xiazhi.
Out of the ten rabbits, Lin Xiazhi gave six to Jufulou. By the way, he wrote a recipe for eating rabbits cold, and let Jufulou try them out. If they are satisfied, the two companies will continue to cooperate in the future.
The remaining four rabbits were kept at home to eat, and Lin Xiazhi had already thought about it. On the day of Lin Chengzong's rest, the family would use two to roast the whole rabbits, and then use two to make cold-eating rabbits, and eat the rabbit heads.
Whether it is roasted whole rabbits or cold eaten rabbits, there are so many Lin family members that they can eat them all in one day.
Rabbits belong to wild game, so Orion can eat them. Others have to buy them from Orion if they want to eat them. Naturally, the Lin family didn’t have this opportunity before. Lin Xiazhi has traveled so long, and he didn’t expect this. This is the first time for him. Eat rabbit meat.
The taste of roasted whole rabbit is different from that of roasted mutton. Rabbit meat is leaner and less fat.
Cold-eating rabbit is even more delicious. In summer, eating spicy cold-eating rabbit can sweat the whole day, which is very refreshing.
Fang Zilin Xia Zhi, who roasted whole rabbits, is also ready. When the amount of this kind of home-raised rabbits increases, they will be given to Jufulou.
Jufulou has a recipe for cold eating rabbits. On the same day, the chef killed a rabbit and made a pot. Every guest who came to Jufulou for dinner was given a small plate, which made them feel happy and sad at the same time. .
The happy thing is that they have eaten the new food, but the sad thing is that they have to think about it for a while, and they will have the opportunity to relax their stomachs and eat the new food when Jufulou starts to be officially sold.
For the next six days, those who came early to Jufulou in Jiangning County could enjoy a small plate of cold-eating rabbit, while those who came late would not be rewarded.
In order to eat rabbits cold, Jufulou has become a place where everyone must go to eat every day.
The shopkeeper Dong watched the guests eagerly waiting for the cold-eating rabbit every day, and was anxious. He ran to Cheng Wenliu and asked him if he could accept the rabbits from the Orion as cold-eating rabbits.
Cheng Wenliu insisted on the agreement with Lin Xiazhi, and only used the rabbits sent by their family to make cold-eating rabbits.
Even if there is no personal relationship between Lin Xiazhi and Cheng Wenliu, Cheng Wenliu will abide by the agreement. He is a businessman who seeks profit, but Mr. Cheng has taught his brothers since childhood that they must keep their promises. Only when you keep your promises will others trust you , do business with you for a long time.
Shopkeeper Dong also knew the rules of the Cheng family when he was under Mr. Cheng, but recently he was driven dizzy by the guests. When he realized that he had made a mistake, he immediately admitted his mistake. Cheng Wenliu saw that he had devoted himself to the Cheng family for many years. , only fined him a month's silver.
On the other side, Cheng Wenliu took the opportunity to ask Lin Xiazhi when he would be able to supply more rabbits. After all, keeping the guests waiting for a long time will also affect everyone's enthusiasm for the new food.
Lin Xiazhi told Cheng Wenliu not to worry, the second batch of rabbits from the Qin family will be out of the cage in about ten days, and it will take some time to get more rabbits. It is estimated that cold-eating rabbits will be sold in limited quantities for a month.
I am not afraid of the limited quantity, but I am afraid that there will be no chance of limited quantity. With Lin Xiazhi's reply, Cheng Wenliu asked the shopkeeper Dong to tell the guests that they will be able to eat rabbits in ten days.
At this time, the first batch of potatoes planted by Linjia Village in April this year was ripe. Unlike the two crops of rice a year that attracted attention, Linjia Village did not go out to publicize that they planted potatoes, and each household only bought three potatoes from the Lin family. , The seeds of five acres of land, the real number of potatoes is not too much.
There is no need to rush to collect potatoes. It took the villagers five or six days to collect the potatoes from their fields.
Everyone didn't know much about the yield of potatoes before, and they just planted with the Lin family. After harvesting, they were pleasantly surprised that the yield of potatoes per acre was much higher than that of sweet potatoes.
Looking at Goldfinger's description of the production value of these potatoes, Lin Xiazhi felt a little frustrated. It was only 25. Obviously, this year's potato production has reached [-] catties per mu, which is a lot higher than last autumn.
At the same time, he also thought, if the output value can be raised to fifty, he wonders how many catties the yield per mu will be.
The Lin Family Village received potatoes, and Ju Fu Lou was the first to get the news. They bought a lot of new potatoes from the Lin Family and started selling potatoes.
The Lin family told everyone through Lizheng that you can keep these potatoes for your own use, or you can sell them, but the price should not be too high, three Wen per catty is enough.
Lin Xiazhi made great efforts to let the people in this village grow potatoes, hoping that potatoes would become a dish on the dinner table of ordinary people, rather than something rare, so naturally he would not set the price very high at the source.
Perhaps for a long time, those places where there is no potato will be expensive when potatoes are passed on. I believe that after the government starts to pay attention to and promote potatoes, the price of potatoes will gradually drop. After all, the output of potatoes is higher than that of sweet potatoes. If it is rare, it will not be expensive.
When other restaurants and restaurants found out that Linjiacun could buy potatoes, they went to Linjiacun to buy potatoes with money. Last year, Jufulou became popular for selling potatoes, and they were already jealous.
They thought the price of potatoes was not cheap, but when they arrived at Linjia Village, they found out that the price was actually three pennies per catty. All of a sudden, those bosses went crazy, fearing that the price of potatoes would rise in the future, they would send truckloads of potatoes from the Linjia Village. The village dragged potatoes back to the county seat.
